Question

【題目】

There are lots of objects that we see in the sky. During the day we see the sun. After the sunset in the evening, we see mostly the stars. Not all the lights in the sky that we see are really stars.

Of course, we see the moon. Some of the other lights in the sky are planets. Planets revolve (轉(zhuǎn)動) around the sun like earth does.

Once in a while someone will see what they call a shooting star.

Shooting star looks like a star that is moving quickly across the sky. Some people believe that seeing a shooting star will bring them good luck. It’s hard to find shooting star because they disappear fast.

The correct name for a shooting star is meteor. Besides very large objects like stars, planets and moons, space has lots of little objects. These can be rocks in space left over from old planets.

These objects can even be as small as dust.These objects are called meteorites(隕石 ).

When a meteorite gets close to the earth, it gets pulled towards the earth by gravity. Earth is surrounded by atmosphere. Atmosphere is made up of air and clouds. A meteorite blows up in the earth’s atmosphere. This makes the short bright moving light in the night sky. A meteorite thus turns into a meteor.

【1】At night the sky is filled mostly with ______.

A.the moonB.the starsC.the planetsD.the sun

【2】From the passage, we can know________.

A.all the lights in the sky that we see are really stars.

B.shooting star looks like a star that is moving slowly across the sky.

C.when a meteorite is near the earth, it gets pushed from the earth by gravity.

D.space has lots of little objects and they can be rocks left over from old planets.

【3】How does a meteorite turn into a meteor? Please put the following sentences in order.

①The blowup gives off bright light.

② It is pulled towards the earth by gravity.

③A meteorite gets close to the earth.

④It blows up in the earth’s atmosphere.

A.③④②①B.③④①②C.③②④①D.③②①④

【4】Where can we probably read this passage?

A.In a science magazine.B.In a diary.C.In an advertisement.D.In a novel.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】C

【4】A

【解析】

本文主要講了流星的形成。它是隕石靠近地球時被重力拉向地球，隕石在地球的大氣層中爆炸，形成了流星。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)上文After the sunset in the evening, we see mostly the stars. 傍晚日落后，我們看到的大多是星星。故選B。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)上文space has lots of little objects. These can be rocks in space left over from old planets.太空中有很多小物體。這些可能是舊行星遺留下來的太空巖石。故選D。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)上文When a meteorite gets close to the earth, it gets pulled towards the earth by gravity. Earth is surrounded by atmosphere. Atmosphere is made up of air and clouds. A meteorite blows up in the earth’s atmosphere. This makes the short bright moving light in the night sky. A meteorite thus turns into a meteor. 當隕石靠近地球時，它就會被重力拉向地球。地球被大氣層所包圍。大氣是由空氣和云組成的。一顆隕石在地球的大氣層中爆炸。這形成夜空中的短而明亮的移動光。隕石就這樣變成了流星。故選C。

【4】推理判斷題。A. In a science magazine.在一本科學雜志里；B. In a diary.在日記里；C. In an advertisement.在廣告里；D. In a novel.在一篇小說里。縱覽全文，主要講的是流星的形成，這屬于自然科學范疇，故選A。
