答案:C
B
(2020·宜春 5 月模拟) Two years ago,aerospace manufacturer SpaceX shocked the
world by landing its reusable booster(助推器)engine—the biggest and most costly part
of the rocket used to power spacecraft into low orbit—on an autonomous drone ship
in the Atlantic Ocean.Now,Californiabased startup Rocket Lab,has come up with an
even more courageous idea: using parachutes and helicopters to capture the returning
booster,or first stage as it is often called,in the air!
Rocket Lab's decision to avoid the propulsive or vertical(垂直的)landing used
by SpaceX comes from its business model to keep its Electron rockets small and
costeffective.Standing just 57 feet tall,they are designed to deliver smaller
payloads(有效载重)of about 500 pounds for only $5 million a launch.In contrast,
the Spaced Falcon 9 rocket measuring 229 feet tall can lift up to 50,000 pounds,
costs about $62 million a mission.“We're not in the business of building mediumsized
launch vehicles but small ones for customers to get on orbit frequently,” said Rocket
Lab CEO Peter Beck.
Similar to other rockets,the Electron divides into two once it reaches outer
space.While the top part,carrying the load,continues on to its final destination,
the booster engine falls back to Earth.The company intends to fix a ballute—a
parachute—like braking device—to quickly slow down the booster's supersonic
speed(超声速)upon its return into the atmosphere.Once it slows down to a reasonable
pace,a helicopter will grab the rocket from midair and put it onto an awaiting ship
to transport to the company's headquarters.Beck said,“The grand goal here is that
if we can capture the vehicle in wonderful condition,in theory,we should be able
to put it back on the pad,charge the batteries up,and go again.”
The idea,still in the concept stage,will become one step closer to becoming
a reality during Electron's next launch,scheduled for sometime in 3 years.“Engineers
will carefully monitor the first stage as it returns,testing its ability to guide
its landing with—the best way to slow down its speed,” said Beck.
[语篇解读] 本文是一则科技报道。文章主要介绍了航空航天制造商 SpaceX 的又一大胆
构想——用降落伞和直升机来接住宇宙飞船返回地球的助推器。
4.We can infer from the first two paragraphs that_________.
A.with a height of 229 feet,the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket can deliver a load of
50,000 tons
B.small launch vehicles are designed by Rocket Lab to make its boosters economical
C.SpaceX once successfully captured its rocket before it landed on a ship in
the Atlantic Ocean
D.an autonomous drone ship is used by Rocket Lab to transport the first stage
解析:推理判断题。通过第二段第一句“Rocket Lab's decision...comes from its
business model to keep its Electron rockets small and costeffective.”可知,实验
室决定避免助推器之前的那种降落方式,要使火箭变小且成本降低。A 项来自第二段第三句,
属于直接信息而非推断;从第一段第一句“SpaceX shocked the world by landing its
reusable booster engine...on an autonomous drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.”可
知,C 项表述有误;从第二句可知,D 项信息张冠李戴,应该把 an autonomous drone ship is
used 改为 parachutes and helicopters are designed to be used。
答案:B
5.What distinguishes the Electron from other rockets?
A.It will be equipped with a ballute to reduce its landing speed.
B.Its booster engine falls back to the earth with the load.
C.It divides into two the instant it enters outer space.
D.It is loaded on a helicopter heading for the company's headquarters.
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“The company intends to fix a ballute...to
quickly slow down the booster's supersonic speed upon its return into the
atmosphere.”可知,the Electron 将装备一个气球式降落伞来降低其回到大气层的着陆速度。
从第三段第二句可知,B 项要去掉 with the load,属于张冠李戴;根据第三段第一句可知 C
项信息正确,但这是相似点,答非所问;根据第三段第四句的“...a helicopter will grab
the rocket from midair and put it onto an awaiting ship to transport to the company's
headquarters.”可知 D 项的表述有误。
答案:A
6.What will Rocket Lab's following research focus on?
A.How to capture the booster engine without damaging its function.
B.When to slow down the first stage as it returns.
C.How to cut the cost of each launch mission by calculation.
D.How to make its rockets smaller and more reusable.
解析:推理判断题。第三段最后一句 Rocket Lab 的 CEO Peter Beck 所说的话,可以推
断出其研究将要聚焦于一个宏大的目标,即如何完美地接住回归的助推器之后还能对其进行
再利用。
答案:A
7.In which column can you find this article in a piece of newspaper?
A.Books & Art. B.Business.
C.Science Fiction. D.Technology.
解析:推理判断题。这篇报道主要介绍了航空航天科技的又一新构想及其成为现实的可
行性,理应出现在报纸的科技栏目。
答案:D
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
(2020·济南 5 月模拟)It's impossible to provide an exact number of words in
English,since new words are being added to the dictionary,and falling out of use
constantly.__1__
The short answer is: about a million.Doubt you know anything even close to a
million words?That number includes any number of legal,medical,scientific,and
mechanical terms that most people will never meet in their daytoday lives.__2__
The “million” number also includes the many,many words that have fallen out
of use throughout the time.__3__Consider the word “diddle”,a slang term from the
1700s that means “gin”.Many English speakers would recognize “gin”,but far fewer
would recognize “diddle”.
If a million words is the absolute upper level,how does that compare with the
general vocabulary of most English speakers?__4__Most Englishspeaking adults know
between 20,000 and 30,000 words.And in addition to those many thousands of words,
they're probably able to comprehend a good 20,000 more just from context clues.
__5__You won't find a single dictionary that includes anywhere close to the total
million words.One of the reasons is that generalusage dictionaries don't include
lots of technical terms—both because of how uncommon they are and,in some cases,
because of length.The longest word in the English language is a term from chemistry
that is used to identify a certain kind of protein.It is 180,000 letters long.So
you certainly won't see it in the dictionary.
A.But what's the number?
B.More than you might think!
C.That doesn't amount to a whole lot,though!
D.Then,how many words are there in the book?
E.While words like these are very uncommon,they still count.
F.If you recognize these uncommon words,we sadly no longer use them.
G.Though removed from the dictionary,they still count as English words.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了英语中不可能提供确切的单词数量并说明
了其原因。
1.解析:由第二段第一句“简而言之,答案是:大约一百万”可知,承接下文,A 选项
“但是数量是多少?”切题;该选项中的 the number 对应第二段第一句的 about a million。
答案:A
2.解析:由上一句“这个数字包括许多法律、医学、科学和机械术语,大多数人在日常
生活中永远不会遇到这些术语”可知,承接上文,E 选项“虽然像这样的单词很少见,但它们
仍然很重要”切题;该选项中的 very uncommon 对应上一句的 most people will never meet
in their daytoday lives。
答案:E
3.解析:由上一句“‘百万’这个数字还包括了许多,许多在这段时间里已经不再使用
的词”和本段后两句的“想想‘diddle’这个词,一个 17 世纪的俚语,意思是‘gin’。许
多讲英语的人会认出‘gin’,但很少有人会认出‘diddle’”可知,该空承接上下文,G 选
项“虽然已从词典中删去,但它们仍算作英语单词”切题。
答案:G
4.解析:由下一句“大多数说英语的成年人知道 20 000 到 30 000 个单词。”可知,该
空承接下文,B 选项“比你想象的还要多!”切题;该选项指与大多数英语使用者的一般词汇
相比,词汇量很大。
答案:B
5.解析:由下一句“你找不到一本字典,里面有接近一百万个单词”可知,该空承接下
文,D 选项“那么,这本书有多少字?”切题;该选项中的 the book 和 how many words 对应
下一句的 a single dictionary 和 the total million words。
答案:D
