In 1901,H. G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers (探险者)landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the "moon people" they met. In turn, the "moon people" expressed their surprise. "Why, "they asked, "are you traveling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?"
H. G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the "moon people" asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.
Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The "Chunnel", a tunnel (隊道)connecting England and France, is now complete.
But what about underground cities? Japan's Taisei Corporation is designed as a network of underground systems, called "Alice Cities". The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using under-ground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶)would cover the whole city.
Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth's space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H. G. Wells, "moon people" would agree. Would you?
The explorers in H. G. Wells' story were surprised to find that the "moon people" ________ .
A.knew so much about the earth |
B.understood their language |
C.lived in so many underground cities |
D.were ahead of them in space technology. |
What does the underlined word "it" (in Paragraph 2)refer to?
A.Discovering the moon's inner space. |
B.Using the earth's inner space. |
C.Meeting the "moon people" again. |
D.Traveling to outer space. |
What sort of underground systems are already here with us?
A.Offices, shopping areas and power stations. |
B.Tunnels car parks and shopping areas, |
C.Gardens, car parks and power stations. |
D.Tunnels, gardens and offices. |
What would be the best title for the text?
A.Alice Cities-cities of the future. |
B.Space travel with H. G. Wells |
C.Enjoy living underground |
D.Building down, not up |
Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.
Born in September,1897,Irene Curie was the first of the Curies' two daughters. Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of Sevigne in Paris.
Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics. When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-ray facilities (设备)to help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X-ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgium. Her services were recognized in the form of a Military's Medal by the French government.
In 1918,Irene became her mother's assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924,Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926. Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later.
Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935.

At first, the earth's surface layer (层)was made up of huge blocks of hard, solid rocks. Then slowly, the rocks broke up into smaller and smaller pieces. Finally stones, pebbles(砾石)and grains of sand were formed. Many sorts of plants and animals lived and died on the surface of the earth. Their remains mixed up with the stones, pebbles and formed soil. The outmost layer of the earth is soil.
There are many ways in which large pieces of rock break up into smaller ones. Wind, water, heat and cold help to break up rocks. When winds blow grains of sand against a large rock for a long time, the softer layers of the rock are slowly worn away. These leave holes and cracks (裂缝)in the rock, which become bigger and finally the rock breaks up into smaller pieces.
The moving water of streams and rivers also helps to break up rocks. As the water moves along, it carries with small pieces of rock. These rub the larger ones. Thus, the larger rocks are worn down to smaller pieces.
The heat of the sun is also helpful in breaking up rocks. When the sun shines, the rocks become very hot. If these rocks are suddenly cooled, they may crack. Ice also plays a part in making soil. Water in the cracks can turn into ice in cold weather. As this happens, it becomes bigger and the cracks become wider, and finally break up into smaller pieces.
According to the passage, soil __________.
A.forms very slowly |
B.is a mixture only of stones, pebbles and sand |
C.makes up the layers of the earth |
D.is becoming smaller and smaller |
Which of the following speeds up the breaks of rocks most?
A.Hot weather. |
B.Cold water. |
C.Sharp changes in temperature. |
D.More dead plants in the cracks. |
Which of the following is NOT true?
A.The remains of many plants and animals can form soil. |
B.If a large rock never moves, it will never break up. |
C.Even if a large rock never moves, it will break up. |
D.Ice in the cracks helps to break up rocks. |
The best title for this passage should be __________
A.Soil from rock |
B.Ways to break up rocks |
C.Soil on the earth |
D.Soil, outmost layer of the earth |
