課時(shí)提能練(二十五).閱讀理解On February 6，Space X，a private US aerospace company owned by Elon Musk，has successfully launched its new Falcon Heavy spacecraft，making it the world's most powerful rocket.Falcon Heavy is the largest rocket since the retirement of NASA's Saturn V，which was used for the Moon missions in the 1970s.“Falcon Heavy can launch about 64 tonnes into low Earth orbitthat's almost three times more than the current running biggest launch vehicle，Delta IV Heavy，”Imperial College London astrophysicist David Clements told A1 Jazeera.According to Space X，F(xiàn)alcon Heavy can lift into orbit a mass greater than a 737 jet loaded with passengers，crew，luggage and fuel.The rocket was designed with the idea of carrying humans into space and opening the possibility of flying missions with people to the Moon and even Mars.For its first voyage，it carried Musk's $100，000 cherry­red Tesla spots car and a fake space­suited human model fixed in the driver's seat.Musk joked that“it may be discovered by some future alien race”Falcon Heavy went into space on its test flight on February 6.The launch took place at NASA's Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and Kennedy Space Center in the US state of Florida，the spot also used for the Apollo 11 Moon mission and several space shuttle launches.It was delayed by several hours because of high winds in the upper atmosphere.Minutes after take­off，the two outer boosters(助推器) landed at the nearby Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.Space X announced plans to eventually use Falcon Heavy to launch two paying space tourists on a trip around the Moon.However，Musk said he will probably reserve that mission for another launch system，the BFR.Recently，Space X planned to launch a Falcon 9 rocket for NASA's TESS mission on March 20，2018.It is reported that Space X planned to complete 30 independent launch missions in 2018，at least half of which will use Falcon 9【語篇解讀】2月6日，Space X公司的宇宙飛船F(xiàn)alcon Heavy成功發(fā)射，它是當(dāng)前最大的運(yùn)載火箭。1Which of the following can function as a rocket?AA 737 jet. BTesla.CSaturn V.DSpace X.C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句“Falcon Heavy is the largest rocket since the retirement of NASA's Saturn V，which was used for the Moon missions in the 1970s”可知，自20世紀(jì)70年代用于月球任務(wù)的美國航空航天局的Saturn V退役以來，F(xiàn)alcon Heavy是當(dāng)前最大的運(yùn)載火箭；據(jù)此可知，美國航空航天局的Saturn V是運(yùn)載火箭，故C項(xiàng)正確。2What do we know about Falcon Heavy from the text?AIt is the largest rocket in the world.BIt is of the same load as a 737 jet.CIt is to be found by the creatures in the outer space.DIt was launched at the same place for the Apollo 11 mission.D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第二句“The launch took place at NASA's Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and Kennedy Space Center in the US state of Florida，the spot also used for the Apollo 11 Moon mission and several space shuttle launches”可知，發(fā)射地是在美國航空航天局的Cape Canaveral Air Force Station和美國佛羅里達(dá)州Kennedy Space Center，該地也用于阿波羅11號(hào)登月任務(wù)和幾個(gè)航天飛機(jī)的發(fā)射。故D項(xiàng)正確。3What delayed the launch of Falcon Heavy?AWeather conditions.BProgram error.CEquipment failure.DDeliberate damage.A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第三句“It was delayed by several hours because of high winds in the upper atmosphere”可知，由于高層大氣的強(qiáng)風(fēng)，發(fā)射被推遲了幾個(gè)小時(shí)。據(jù)此可知，由于氣候條件的原因?qū)е掳l(fā)射推遲，故A項(xiàng)正確。4What can we infer from the last paragraph?AThe BFR will be completed in 2018.BThe mission to launch space tourists is unknown.CTourists will be sent into space by Falcon 9DFalcon 9 will take 15 launch missionsB推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段第一、二句“Space X announced plans to eventually use Falcon Heavy to launch two paying space tourists on a trip around the Moon.However，Musk said he will probably reserve that mission for another launch system，the BFR”可知，Space X宣布計(jì)劃最終使用Falcon Heavy搭載兩名旅客，圍繞月球進(jìn)行太空旅行。不過，Musk表示，這一計(jì)劃他很可能會(huì)保留給另一個(gè)發(fā)射系統(tǒng)BFR。據(jù)此可以判斷，圍繞月球進(jìn)行太空旅行還未知，故B項(xiàng)正確。.閱讀七選五(2019·山西八校聯(lián)考)Having success and being able to meet one's goals requires many things：knowledge，a sense of direction，hard work，luck，connections and perhaps a strong belief in yourself.We accomplish our goals one step at a time，doing a little each day. 1 1Get up an hour early.People who get up early in the morning have a jump on the day. 2 And some studies show that the willpower and attention are strongest in the morning.In fact，the morning may be the most productive part of your day.2Drink a glass of water with lemon juice.While your coffee is being prepared or waiting for the water to heat up，drink a glass of water with lemon juice.Why？Health experts say that drinking a combination of lemon juice and water first in the morning jump­starts the body's metabolism(新陳代謝)3Exercise! 3 Exercising in the morning may not be for everyone.Some people like to exercise after work or at night.Physical fitness experts and trainers often suggest some form of exercise in the morning because the middle of the day is a busy time for most people.By the day's end，you may not have the time or energy to exercise.4 4 Take time at the end of the day to think back on all the things that have happened. 5 And spend a little time thinking about tomorrow.It may help you to prepare if you take a few minutes to think about what you need to do the next day.AMake a plan for tomorrow.BFor starters，they are awake!CThink about your day at night.DSome people may disagree with this one.ESo using your day effectively is important.FGive thanks to wonderful things，if you want.GWell，don't，as it is a great way to forget about the day ahead.【語篇解讀】本文是篇說明文。文章向讀者介紹了有效利用每一天的四個(gè)習(xí)慣。1E從空前一句和下文中的四個(gè)建議可知，本空承上啟下，E項(xiàng)符合語境，E項(xiàng)中的“using your day effectively”是關(guān)鍵信息。2B根據(jù)空處所在段的小標(biāo)題“Get up an hour early”并結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知，B項(xiàng)符合語境。3D根據(jù)該段小標(biāo)題和空處后兩句內(nèi)容可知，有些人可能是不同意早上鍛煉的，故選D項(xiàng)。4C由本段內(nèi)容特別是第一句可知，本段主要講的是一天結(jié)束時(shí)要進(jìn)行思考，故選C項(xiàng)。5F本空前一句內(nèi)容是回顧一天發(fā)生的事情，故可推知空處應(yīng)指回顧過后可對(duì)美好的事情表達(dá)一下感謝，故選F項(xiàng)?！疽族e(cuò)分析】本題的干擾項(xiàng)是G項(xiàng)，G項(xiàng)意思是“噢，不要這樣做，因?yàn)檫@是一個(gè)提前忘記這一天的很好的方法”，但它與空后的“And spend a little time thinking about tomorrow”連貫不起來，邏輯不通，故排除。.語法填空(2019·沈陽質(zhì)檢)China has once again showed its ability to change the world with its“four great new 1 (invent)”high­speed rail，electronic payment，shared bicycle，and online shopping.China's new­generation high­speed train，the Fuxing Hao，is now one of the 2.
