10、t spinning structure. It is one hundred feet taller than Big Ben,and weighs 1600 tons. It was built to celebrate the year 2000. Maybe building such a big spinning structure suggested that people longed for bigger and better things in the future.Why did people think of building the London Eye? In fac
11、t it was inspired by great structures of the past like the very first observation wheel built for the Chicago World Expo of 1893. Its twice the size of the wheel, but three times lighter, and much more comfortable. The London Eye is keeping natives and visitors entertained and awed(敬畏). In the Londo
12、n Eye, there are 32 capsules. Each of the capsules can hold up to 25 people. And theyre air conditioned in summer, heated in winter. From these capsules the visitors can see the most beautiful views of London. It was difficult to assemble(安装) and put a wheel of this size. And it required new technol
13、ogy and a lot of imagination. The parts of the London Eye were sent up the Thames River,and the wheel was assembled on temporary platforms on the river. Lifting it into an upright position was a major challenge. It took a week to winch(吊) it up to its final position.Now the London Eye is regarded as
14、 a monument to new millennium. And many visitors from all over the world come to visit it.21. How tall is Big Ben?A. 443 feet. B. 340-350 feet. C. 550 feet. D. 250-260 feet22.

15、ng of 2000.D. To beat the first observation wheel in Chicago.23. From the text, we can learn that_.A. it took great trouble for people to build the London EyeB. the London Eye has been changed into a monumentC. the latest technology was used to assemble the London EyeD. imagination is not very impor
16、tant to build the London EyeBMove Earth - its no science fictionScientists have found an unusual way to prevent our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot. All you have to do is send a few comets in the direction of Earth, and its orbit will be changed. Our world will then be sent into a
17、safer,colder part of the solar system.This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) engineers and American astronomers. They say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planet- effectively doubli
18、ng its working life.The plan put forward by Dr. Laughlin, and his colleagues Don Korycansky and Fred Adams, needs carefully directing a comet or asteroid(小行星) so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational energy to Earth. “Earths orbital speed would increase as a result a
19、nd we would move to a higher orbit away from the Sun,“Laughlin said.Engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to Jupiter or Saturn. The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. Later its orbit would bring it back to Earth, and the process would be repeated.In
20、 the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to global warming, although the team was actually concerned with a much greater danger. The Sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so “seriously compromise” our biosphere(生物圈)- by cooking us.Thats why the group decided to try to save Ea
21、rth.The plan has one or two worrying aspects, though. For a start, space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth. The smallest miscalculation in orbit could fire it - 5 -straight at Earth- with deadly consequences.There is also the questi
22、on of the Moon. As the current issue of scientific American magazine points out, if Earth was pushed out of its current position, it is most likely that the Moon would be stripped away from Earth. This would greatly change our planets climate.24. What makes the scientists plan to move Earth?A. A few
23、 comets are moving to the direction of Earth.B. Earths working life is coming to an end soon.C. Earth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive.D. The moon is moving farther and farther away from Earth.25. If the plan is successful, Earth will have a working life of _ years.A.12 billion B.6 bill
24、ion C.18 billion D.24 billion26. What serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage?A. Earth might have deadly consequences and man might lose the Moon.B. Earth might be moved too far away and man might be frozen to death.C. The comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to
25、Earth.D. Earths working life might be greatly shortened.27. The underlined word“compromise”means _. A. provide B. benefit C. share D. endangerCA recent study, while showing a generally positive attitude toward science, also suggests a widespread worry that it may be “running out of control”. This id
26、ea is dangerous.Science can be a force for evil as well as for good. Its applications can be channeled either way, depending on our decisions. The decisions we make, personally or collectively, will determine the outcomes of science. But here is a real danger. Science is advancing so fast and is so
27、strongly influenced by businesses that we are likely to believe whatever decisions we come to will make little difference. And, rather than fighting for the best possible policies, we may step back and do nothing.Some people go even further.They say that despite the moral and legal objections, whate
28、ver is scientifically possible will be done-somewhere, sometime. They believe that science will get out of control in the end. This - 6 -belief is dangerous too, because it fuels a sense of hopelessness and discourages them from making efforts to build a safer world.In our interconnected(互联的) world,
29、 the lack of agreement in and out of the world of science can lead to the failure to control the use of science. Without a common understanding, the challenges of “controlling” science in this century will be really tough. Take human cloning (克隆) for example. Despite the general agreement among scie
30、ntists on its possible huge influence on traditional moral values, some countries still go ahead with the research and development of its related techniques. The outcomes are hard to predict.Therefore, discussions on how science is applied should be extended far beyond scientific societies. Only thr
31、ough the united efforts of people with hope, can we be fully safe against the misuse of science and can science best serve mankind in the future.28. What can we conclude from the recent study?A. People think highly of science.B. People hold mixed opinions about science.C. Science is getting dangerou
32、sly out of control.D. Science is used for both good and bad purposes.29. According to the passage, what will happen if we hold that science is getting beyond control?A. The development of science will hopelessly slow down.B. Businesses will have an even greater influence on science.C. The public wil
33、l lose faith in bringing about a bright future.D. People will work more actively to put science under control.30. The discussion should reach beyond scientific societies because _.A. scientists have failed to predict the outcomes.B. the ties between different areas need strengtheningC. united effort
34、s are necessary for the development of scienceD. people need to wok together to prevent the bad use of science31. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Science and its applications bring us many dangers.B. The development of science mostly lies in peoples attitudes.C. Mankind can largely take cont
35、rol of science with their efforts.D.The use of science will be influenced by the dangerous ideas.- 7 -DAlbert Einstein was probably the most famous scientist of the twentieth century. He changed scientific thinking in the modern world. He is generally considered as the greatest physicist who ever li
36、ved. Whats more, he devoted a lot of his time and energy to working for human rights and progress. In 1933, while Einstein was visiting England and the United States, the Nazi government of Germany took all his things away, including his position and his citizenship. Einstein then settled down in th
37、e United States. In 1939, Einstein, who loved peace afraid of a world in which only Hitler would have an atomic bomb(原子弹)- tried hard to persuade President Franklin D. Roosevelt in a famous letter to have the United States start uranium research. That Germany, after all, had no bomb, and that the fi
38、rst bomb would fall on Japan, could not have been expected. After the war, Einstein never stopped working for peace and reducing the number of soldiers in the world,.Although he wasnt connected with any accepted religion, Einstein felt that trust in a personal God was so special an idea to be suitab
39、le to the God at work in this universe, but he never believed that the universe was one of chance or disorder. The universe to him was one of pure law and order. He once said,“God may know everything, but he is not hateful.”32. From the passage we know that _.A. no scientist is as great as Albert Ei
40、nstein during this centuryB. Albert Einstein was likely to be the greatest scientist of his timeC. Albert Einstein made the first atomic bomb for the United StatesD. Albert Einstein gave up his German citizenship for his own reasons33. If Einstein had known that the first atomic bomb would fall on J
