During the day, when we are working, we leave the bags tied to the wall, out of the ways. At bedtime we untie them and take

31、 them wherever we“ve chosen to sleep. On most spacecraft flights everyone sleeps at the same time.

34、ow. Before I pull the mask down over my eyes, I relax for a while, listening to music and watching the Earth go by under me.（分数：20.00）(1).When the astronauts are working, sleeping bags are fastened _.（分数：4.00）A.on the wall B.onto the flight deckC.to their seatsD.anywhere they like解析：解析 根据题目中的 sleepi

35、ng bags 定位到第一段。该段第二句话谈到，在工作的时候，宇航员都是把睡袋系在墙上的(tied to the wall)。故 A 项是正确答案。 文章没有提到座位上有没有系睡袋，排除 B 项。文中虽然提到过驾驶舱，不过不是用来系睡袋的，而是宇航员睡觉的地方，可见 C 项不对。D 项也不正确，文中只是提到了宇航员想在哪里睡觉都可以，并没有说睡袋想系在哪里都可以。(2).Why can all the astronauts sleep at the same time?（分数：4.00）A.They have to follow the same timetable.B.The radio w

36、ill take care of the aircraft for them.C.There are enough sleeping bags in the spacecraft.D.There is no need for them to watch over the spacecraft. 解析：解析 根据题目中的 sleep at the same time 定位到第二段。该段第二句说到，没有必要一直守着飞船(No one has to stay awake to watch over.)，如有异常情况，计算机系统会发出通知。所以，宇航员们大可放心地同时睡觉。故 D 项是正确答案。 文中

37、并没有提到规定的宇航员作息时间，A 项没有依据。B 项容易被误认为是正确答案，因为文中确实提到了广播，但是广播并不能照料飞船，而是计算机系统可以在飞船有异常情况时通过广播通知宇航员。从文中可知，并不是因为睡袋充裕，宇航员才可以同一时间睡觉，排除 C 项。(3).To relax himself before sleep, the writer often _.（分数：4.00）A.makes a bedB.listens to musicC.gets into his bag D.wears a sleep mask解析：解析 根据题目中的 relax 定位到全文最后一句。该句谈到，作者在睡觉

38、之前先要听一会儿音乐(listening to music)放松一下。因此，C 项是正确答案。 A 项是不正确的，因为飞船上根本就没有床，只有睡袋，何谈铺床。B 项也不对，要睡觉当然要先钻进睡袋，但这并不是作者放松的方法，只是睡觉前的一个必要步骤。文中最后一句话明确表明，在拉下眼罩之前作者要听音乐放松，所以 D 项也不正确。(4).How long does it take the spacecraft to go round the Earth?（分数：4.00）A.Forty minutes.B.Ninety minutes.C.Fifty minutes. D.Twenty-four h

39、ours.解析：解析 根据第三段第二句话可知，飞船沿着轨道每 90 分钟(each ninety-minute orbit)就可以看到一次日升日落(“rises”.“sets”)。所以可以推理出，飞船绕地球一周需要 90 分钟，因此 C 项是正确答案。 B 项指的是宇宙飞船上有太阳射入的时间，并非完整的飞船绕地球一周的时间。那么 A 项就是宇宙飞船上处于黑夜的时间了。D 项在文中完全没有提及。(5).The best title for this passage is _.（分数：4.00）A.Traveling in SpaceB.Equipment Used by Astronauts C

40、Sleeping in the SpacecraftD.The Earth Seen from Outer Space解析：解析 通读文章后我们可以看出，本文通篇都在探讨宇航员在飞船里的睡觉问题。如：第一段介绍了宇航员在飞船里是睡在睡袋的；第二段介绍了宇航员可以同一时间睡觉；第三段介绍了为了更好的入睡宇航员会戴上黑色的睡眠眼罩；第四段介绍了宇航员睡觉时不同的睡姿以及本文作者的睡眠习惯。因此，B 项是最佳标题。 本文虽然谈到了太空，但是主要是描述在宇宙飞船上宇航员是如何睡觉的问题，而不是 A 项说的太空漫游。C 项提到的 Equipment 在文中并未提及。文中只是提到了，由于飞船每 90 分

41、钟绕地球一周，所以宇航员要戴上眼罩睡觉，但是并没有描述在太空中看到的地球是什么样子，D 项不对。三、Task 2(总题数：1，分数：20.00)Do you know how to use a mobile phone without being rude to the people around you? Talking dining a performance irritates (激怒) people. If you are expecting an emergency call, sit near the exit doors and set your phone to vibrate

42、 (振动). When your mobile phone vibrates, you can leave quietly and let the others enjoy the performance. Think twice before using mobile phones in elevators, museums, churches or other indoor public placesespecially enclosed spaces. Would you want to listen to someone“s conversation in these places?

This enables you to speak quietly so that others won“t hear the details of your conversations. If you are calli

46、e.（分数：20.00）(1).What should you do when you need to answer a phone call during a performance?（分数：4.00）A.Call back after the performance.B.Talk outside the exit door.C.Answer it near the exit door. D.Speak in a low voice.解析：解析 根据题目中的 during a performance 定位到第二段。该段第二、三句表明，看表演的时候，如果要等紧急电话，你可以坐在出口附近(sit

47、 near the exit doors)，这样电话来了，你就可以悄悄走开(leave quietly)。由此可推断，看表演的时候，应该到出口外面接听电话，故 C 项为正确答案。 文章没有提到看完演出后的情况，A 项没有依据。第二段第三句提到电话来的时候应该 leave quietly，可见 B 项的表述不对。文中没有提及要低声接听电话，D 项不能选。(2).Putting your mobile phone on a restaurant table may make your friends think _.（分数：4.00）A.you prefer to talk to your fri

48、ends at the tableB.you are enjoying the company of your friends C.you value your calls more than your friendsD.you are polite and considerate of your friends解析：解析 根据题目中的 restaurant table 定位到第四段。该段第二句谈到，将手机放到桌子上会让你的朋友觉得你把电话看得比你旁边的人还重要(more important than those around you)。即 B 项所表达的意思。 A 项的 talk to yo

49、ur friends at the table 和 C 项的 enjoying the company of your friends 在文中没有出现，故不选。根据第一段可知文章主要讲如何使用手机才能表示对旁人的尊重，第四段中提出将手机放在餐桌上，事实上没有考虑到朋友的想法，是对朋友的不礼貌，因此 D 项说法与文意相反。(3).When you are calling in a noisy area, you are advised to _.（分数：4.00）A.use a more sensitive microphoneB.go away quietly to continue the phone callC.shout loudly into your microphoneD.use your hand to help speak into the phone 解析：解析 根据题目中的 noisy area 定位到第五段最后一句。该句谈论到，如果你在吵闹的地方(a noisy area)打电话时，要用手将你的声音导人麦克风(use your
