任務型閱讀 閱讀短文,按要求完成各題。(5分)
At the moment, it may be difficult to imagine, but many people believe that, by the year 2100, we will live on the planet Mars. Our own planet, Earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. Luckily, we can start again and build a better world on Mars.
First of all, transport should be much better. At present, our spaceships are too slow to carry large numbers of people to Mars—it takes months. However, by 2100, spaceship can travel at half the speed of light. It might take us two or three days to get to Mars!
Secondly, humans need food, water and air to live. Scientists should be able to develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce the food and air that we need. However, can these plants produce water for us? There is no answer now.
There is a problem for us to live on Mars. Mars suck us much less than the Earth does. This will be dangerous because we could easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To prevent this, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to make themselves heavier.
Life on Mars will be better than that on Earth in many ways. People will have more space. Living in a large building with only 10 bedrooms is highly possible. Many people believe that robots will do most of our work, so we have more time for our hobbies.
There will probably be no school on Mars. Every student will have a computer at home which is connected to the internet. They can study, do their homework and take exams in online schools. Each student will also have their own online teacher called “e-teacher”.
However, in some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on the earth today. Food will not be the same—meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also, space travel will make many people feel ill. The spaceship will travel fast, so the journey to Mars will probably be very uncomfortable.
小題1:根據(jù)短文內容完成句子填空(每空限填一個單詞)。
In the first paragraph, we can know, Earth is becoming more and more_____ and___ to make  people  want  to live on the planet of Mars.
小題2:根據(jù)短文內容完成句子填空(每空限填一個單詞)。
In order to live on Mars, people need faster _______________, ______________ that can produce food or air for people, and special shoes.

What examples are given in the passage about the disadvantages living on Mars? 
_______________________________________________________________________________                                                                      
小題4:把短文中畫底線的句子譯成漢語。
_______________________________________________________________________________                                                                       
小題5:根據(jù)短文內容用一個完整的英文句子(限10個詞以內)回答問題。
What’s the passage mainly  about ?
__________________________________________________________________________

小題1:crowed,polluted
小題2:transports 、plants
小題3:Food will not be the same—meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today.  space travel will make many people feel ill.
小題4:現(xiàn)在,我們的宇宙飛船太慢了以至于不能載大量的人去火星。它需要花費數(shù)月.
小題5:The advantages and disadvantages living on Mars.

試題分析:短文大意:目前,它可能是難以想象的,但許多人相信,在2100年,我們將生活在火星上。我們自己的星球--地球,正變得越來越擁擠和污染。幸運的是,我們可以重新開始,在火星上建立一個更好的世界。本文主要介紹了在火星上生活的優(yōu)缺點。
小題1:根據(jù)第一段中Our own planet, Earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. Luckily, we can start again and build a better world on Mars. 可知該分別填寫crowed, polluted。
小題2:根據(jù)第二段開頭First of all, transport should be much better.和第三段中These plants will produce the food and air that we need.可知該分別填寫transports 、plants。
小題3:根據(jù)文章最后一段可知文章就火星上生活的缺點給出了兩個例子:Food will not be the same—meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today. space travel will make many people feel ill.
小題4:現(xiàn)在,我們的宇宙飛船太慢了以至于不能載大量的人去火星。它需要花費數(shù)月.
小題5:本文主要說了在火星上生活的優(yōu)缺點,所以可回答:The advantages and disadvantages living on Mars.

Being safe in your everyday life needs knowledge. If you remember the following information, your life will be much safer.
Always notice the environment around you. You shouldn’t walk alone outside. Make sure where the public phones are. If anything dangerous happens, you can find them easily.
Your bag should be carried towards the front of your body instead of putting it on your back. When a bus is full of people, it is easy enough for a thief to take away the things in the bag on your back.
If you are followed by someone you don’t know, cross the street and go to the other way, let the person understand that you know he or she is after you. Next, don’t go home at once. You are safer in the street than you are alone in your home or in a lift (電梯).

According to scientists' research, the month in which babies are born could affect them in some ways.
Babies born in spring get sick easily. Children born under Aquarius may be less clever than those born in other seasons. They may also have shorter lives than those born in autumn  Scientists believe many of the differences can be explained by the mother's exposure to sunlight in pregnancy(懷孕).  Sunlight helps lead to the production of Vitamin D in the body. The lack of this in the first months of life may have a bad effect on mental and physical health.
Vitamin D, called the "sunshine vitamin", is known to help regulate(調節(jié)) thousands of genes during development, according to a study of more than two million people. So Vitamin D has a good effect on health  This study showed that people born from April to June had slightly shorter lives than those born in October, November or December. Similar studies in the USA showed that people born in autumn lived about 160 days longer than those born in spring.
Professor Russell Foster, an Oxford University neuroscientist on seasonal biology, said the conclusions were surprising and interesting. He added, "These are small effects but they are very, very clear. I am not giving voice to star signs and they are just for fun. But it is true that we are affected by our season of birth."
小題1:A baby's season of birth doesn't affect its_______.
A.healthB.heightC.length of lifeD.mind
小題2:According to the passage,_______ can help people get Vitamin D.
A. enough sleep                B. enough sunlight   
C. fresh air                        D. suitable seasons
小題3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.People born in spring may not be in good health.
B.Children born under Aquarius are cleverer than those born under Libra.
C.Professor Russell Foster is interested in star signs and believes in them
D.People born in May will live longer than those born in October.
小題4:What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. People can know the length of life by star sign.
B. Women should choose to give birth to children in spring.
C A child's season of birth has some effect on him or her.
D. Vitamin D is very important to people's health.
