第1题：

What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is “no”. It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however, goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.

The scientist’s knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed the Theory of Relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations, and Einstein’s ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.

11.What makes a scientist according to the passage? ________

A.The tools he uses.

B.The way he uses his tools.

C.His ways of learning.

D.The various tools he uses.

12.The underlined part in the passage shows_______.

A.the importance of information

B.the importance of thinking

C.the difference between scientists and ordinary people

D.the difference between carpenters and people with other jobs

13.A sound scientific theory should be one that _________.

A.works not only under one set of conditions at one time, but also under the same conditions at other times

B.does not allow any changes even under different conditions

C.can be used for many purposes

D.leaves no room for improvement

14.The author quotes the case of Albert Einstein to illustrate __________.

A.that measurements are keys to success in science

B.that accuracy of mathematics

C.that investigations are important in science

D.that the mathematical calculations may test his investigations

15.What is the main idea of the passage? ________

A.The theory of relativity.

B.Exactness is the core of science.

C.Scientists are different from ordinary people.

D.Exactness and ways of using tools are the keys to the making of a scientist.

Albert Einstein,whose theories on space time and matter helped unravel the secrets of the atom and of the universe,was chosen as"Person of the Century"by Time Magazine on Sunday.
A man whose very name is synonymous with scientific genius,Einstein has come to represent more than any other person the flowering of 20th century scientific thought that set the stage for the age of technology.
"The world has changed far more in the past 100 years than in any other century in history. The reason is not political or economic,but technological一technologies that flowed directly from advances in basic science,"wrote theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking in a Time essay explaining Einstein's significance._________(46)
Time chose as runner-up President Franklin Roosevelt to represent the triumph of freedom and democracy over fascism,and Mahatma Gandhi as an icon for a century when civil and human rights became crucial factors in global politics.
"What we saw Franklin Roosevelt embodying the great theme of freedoms fight against totalitarianism,Gandhi personifying the great theme of individuals struggling for their rights,and Einstein being both a great genius and a great symbol of a scientific revolution that brought with it amazing technological advances that helped expand the growth of freedom."said Time Magazine Editor Walter Isaacson.
Einstein was born in Ulm,Germany in 1879._________(47)He was slow to learn to speak and did not do well in elementary school.He could not stomach organized learning and loathed taking exams.
In 1905,however,he was to publish a theory which stands as one of the most intricate examples of human imagination in history._________(48)Everything else一mass,weight,space,even time itself—is a variable.And he offered the world his now-famous equation:energy equals mass times the speed of light squared,E=mc2.
_________(49)"There was less faith in absolutes,not only of time and space but also of truth and morality."
Einstein's famous equation was also the seed that led to the development of atomic energy and weapons.In 1939,six years after he fled European fascism and settled at Princeton University,Einstein,an avowed pacifist,signed a letter to President Roosevelt urging the United States to develop an atomic bomb before Nazi Germany did.________(50)Einstein did not work on the project.
Einstein died in Princeton,New Jersey in 1955.

________（46）
A:"Indirectly,relativity paved the way for a new relativism in morality,art and politics," isaacson wrote in an essay explaining Time's choices.
B:How he thought of the relativity theory influenced the general public's view about Albert Einstein.
C:"Clearly,no scientist better represents those advances than Albert Einstein."
D:Roosevelt heeded the advice and formed the"Manhattan Project"that secretly developed the first atomic weapon.
E:In his early years,Einstein did not show the promise of what he was to become.
F:In his"Special Theory of Relativity",Einstein described how the only constant in the universe is the speed of light.

答案：C
解析：
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。这篇文章主要是在介绍爱因斯坦，空格位于文章的前半部分（第三段），因此判断在空格处很可能出现总结概述爱因斯坦的影响的句子，而且空格前句中有advances，与选项C中的those advances呼应。因此判断选项C（很明显，没有哪个科学家能比爱因斯坦更好地代表这些科学成就）正确。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。本段简要介绍爱因斯坦早年的情况。E说：“爱因斯坦在小时候并未显示出日后会成为大科学家的任何天赋。”而紧接的后一句话实际上是对E的详细解释。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。本段主要介绍爱因斯坦提出的相对论。第一句话告诉我们1905年的时候爱因斯坦发表了一个有史以来最复杂的理论，第三、四句则是具体解释相对论，F说：“在‘特殊相对论’中，爱因斯坦描述了为什么宇宙中唯一恒定的是光速。”由此看来，F放在此处最合适。故答案为F项。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。借助空格后的句意“人们不太相信绝对的东西，不仅对时间和空间的绝对性提出了质疑，而且对（以往所接受的）真理和道德也提出了质疑。”因此选A。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。空格后出现了“这个计划”，而选项D中出现的“曼哈顿计划”与之相呼应，因此判断选项D是答案。

B1i'k Holes

1 Black holes can be best described as a sort of vacuum,sucking up everything in space. Scientists
have discovered that black holes come from an explosion of huge stars. Stars that are near death can no longer
burn due to loss of fuel , and because its temperature can no longer control the gravitational（重力的）force,
hydrogen ends up putting pressure onto the star' s surface until it suddenly explodes then collapses.
2 Black holes come from stars that are made of hydrogen,other gases and a few metals. When these
explode it can turn into a stellar-mass ( 恒星质量）black hole , which can only occur if the star is large enough
(should be bigger than the sun) for the explosion to break it into pieces,and the gravity starts to compact
every piece into the tiniest particle. Try to see and compare:if a star that' s ten times the size of the sun ends
up being a black hole that' s no longer than 70 kilometers ,then the Earth would become a black hole that' s
only"fraction of an inch!
3 Objects that get sucked in a black hie will always remain there,never to brsak fren. But remember
that black holes can only gobble up（吞噬）objects within a specific distance to it It' s possible for a large
star near the sun to become a black hole,but the sun will continue to stay in place. Orbits (轨道）do not
change because the newly formed black hole, contains exactly the same amount of mass as when it was a star,
only this time its mass is totally contracted that it can end up as on biggeer tnan a state.
4 So far, astronomers have figured out that black holes exist because of Albert Einstenin's theory of
relativity. In the end,through numerous studies ,they have discovered that black holes truly exist. Since black
holes trap light and do not give off light,it is nearly impossible to detect black goles via a telescope. But
astronomers continue to study galaxies (银河系）,space and the solar system to understand how black holes
misht evolve. It is possible that black holes can exist for millions of years,and later contribute to a bigger
process in galaxies ,which can eventually lead to creation of new entities（实体）.Scientists also credit black
holes as helpful in learning how galaxies began to form.

Albert Einstein's theory of relativity helps to prove____________.
A: the existence of black holes
B: the creation of new entities
C: the same amount of mass
D: an explosion of huge stars
E: a fraction of an inch
F: the tiniest narticle

答案：A
解析：
第一段描述了什么是黑洞，以及它产生的缘由―巨型恒星爆炸，并叙述了恒星爆炸的 原因和简要过程。再看选项，只有F项符合题意。
第二段的主要内容是：恒星来自由氢气、其他气体和一些金属组成的恒星；当这些物质 爆炸时，恒星就变成了质量与原先的恒星等同的黑洞，恒星的每个碎片都被重力压缩成极小的 颗粒。观察选项，似乎E、F两项都可选，但一则上一小题只能选F项，二则此段虽也讲了黑洞 是怎么形成的，但比较侧重黑洞形成过程中，原来的恒星变成极小的颗粒。由第三段最后一句 也可知，这些颗粒的质量总和与原来的恒星一样，正是这些颗粒使黑洞有极大的吸附性，而成 其为“黑洞”。因此，黑洞就是由这些极小却质量巨大、吸附性极强的颗粒构成的。故选E。
第三段描述了黑洞极大的吸附性，及其具有如此大的吸附性的原因。黑洞形成后，周 围一定距离内的几乎一切东西都会被吞噬而难以逃脱，故选A。
第四段主要讲黑洞存在的依据及科学家们的研究和设想。故选B。
由第一段第二句“…black holes come from an explosion of huge stars.”可知答案。
由第二段第二句后半部分“…the gravity。tartst。。ompact evey piece into the tiniest particle”可知答案。
由第三段最后一句“…the newly formed black hol。Contains。xactly the same amount of mass as when it was a star…”可知答案。
由第四段第一句话可知答案。第4部分：阅读理解第一篇 本文主要讲的是科学家利用植物的光合作用使其生产氢气等可供人类使用的能源。
