A middle-aged stranger visited us late on a dark rainy night when my father was working the night shift (a job for a period during the night). The stranger asked if he could wait under the eaves of our roof for the rain to stop. Then he disappeared, and we started hearing footsteps and creaking boards in the attic(the space or room at the top of a building, under the roof, often used for storing things). Was the stranger inside our house? My whole body couldn’t help but stiffen. In my mind’s eye, I could imagine the stranger pushing through the attic door and approaching us.
We immediately called Jerry, our neighbor, for help. He searched everywhere, but the visitor was nowhere to be found. As Jerry looked in the garage, he found the stranger lying underneath the car. Jerry exclaimed with fright, “You are not allowed to enter the house. Get off the property right now.”
We were determined to leave the house immediately. As we drove away, we saw the man blocking our way on the road and staring at us. We had to swerve to miss him. After that, I never saw the stranger again.

It didn’t take me long to become  44 with my limited movements and even with the pace the doctors were willing to go with me.I was determined to learn everything they showed me.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

Four hundred years ago, an Italian scientist named Galileo Galilei became the first person to see the craters(環(huán)形山) on the moon. Galileo was one of the first people to use a telescope to study the sky. Since then, telescopes have become the most important tool used by astronomers. Scientists never stop finding new ways to make these instruments more powerful. In the next several years, two new telescopes with different purposes are to be used.
One of the telescopes, called Pan-STARRS, could save humans from dying out. Nick Kaiser, a scientist who works on the project, says the Pan-STARRS telescope has been designed to find “90 percent of all killer asteroids(小行星) near Earth”.
Pan-STARRS, like most telescopes, uses mirrors and lenses(透鏡) to provide pictures of outer space. Giant mirrors are used to “gather” light. They reflect the light onto the lens of a camera, which can then record the image.
When completed, Pan-STARRS will include four telescopes which will be put on top of a mountain on the Hawaiian island of Maui. Only one telescope is in place and working now. Each telescope will take pictures of one patch of sky for about 30 seconds, and then move on to another patch. Every night, each telescope will take pictures of about 1,000 patches. Every week, each telescope will have photographed the whole sky.
Each of the four telescopes will take pictures of the same patches of sky. One telescope, working alone, may sometimes incorrectly show an asteroid. If there are three other telescopes working, astronomers can use them to see if there really is an asteroid coming our way. By using four telescopes instead of one, scientists hope to get a better picture of space. If a giant asteroid was identified, astronomers would try to break it up long before it reached Earth.
小題1: Galileo Galilei is mentioned to ____________.
A.tell us the history of telescopes
B.introduce the topic of the passage
C.show people his contributions
D.tell us about the craters on the moon
小題2: For what purpose is Pan-STARRS designed?
A.To find more asteroids around Earth.
B.To help scientists know Earth better.
C.To find killer asteroids coming towards Earth.
D.To learn about asteroids in outer space.
小題3:What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.The use of mirrors in a telescope.
B.Why Pan-STARRS is different.
C.How telescope “gather” light
D.How a telescope works.
小題4:How many patches is the whole sky divided into when Pan-STARRS is working?
A.1,000B.7,000C.21,000D.28,000
小題5: The four telescopes will take pictures of the same patches of sky because _____.
A.one telescope often takes unclear pictures
B.one telescope may provide incorrect information
C.information from just one telescope is usually incorrect
D.no information is allowed to be identified based on single information
