will probably hit the southern half of the earth. on 17 july , a piece four kilometers wide enters the earths atmosphere with a massive explosion. about half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the south atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. the sea boils and a huge hole is made in the sea bed. huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. the wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern africa at 800 kilometers an hour. cities on the african coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned. before the waves reach south america, the second piece of the comet lands in argentina. earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the andes mountains. the shock waves move north into california and all around the pacific ocean. the cities of los angeles, san francisco and tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already dead, but the north wont escape for long. because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero . crops are ruined. the sun wontbe seen again for many years. wars break out as countries fight for food. a year later, no more than 10 million people remain alive. could it really happen? in fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the earth. the dinosaurs were on the earth for over 160 million years. then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. many scientists believe that the earth was hit by a piece of object in space. the dinosaurs couldnt live through the cold climate that followed and they died out. will we meet the same end?36what is mainly described in the passage?aa historic discovery. ban event of imagination. ca research on space. da scientific adventure. 37when the first piece hits the south atlantic, it causes . aan earthquake bdamages to cities can earth explosion dhuge waves 38why cant the northern half of the earth escape for long?abecause the land is covered with water bbecause the light and heat from the sun can not reach the earth. cbecause people there can not live at the temperature of zero. dbecause wars break out among countries . 39by giving the example of dinosaurs, the author tries to prove . aanimals could not live in the cold climate bwhat happened 65 million years ago was an invented story cthe human beings will die out in 2094dthe earth could be hit by other objects in space bwe often think of future. we often wonder what the world would be like in a hundred years time. think of space， perhaps a permanent(永久的) station on the moon will have been set up. perhaps people will be able to visit the moon as tourists. cheap rockets for space travel will have been developed，permitting long journeys throughout the solar system(太阳系). when that time comes， people will be taking holidays in space and visiting other planets. great progress will have been made in medicine， too. perhaps a cure will have been discovered for the most terrible of all diseasescancer. pollution is a problem we must solve. in hundreds years time it will have been controlled. all the world will have been developed even antarctica. there will be large cities in antarctica. we already have supersonic(超音速的) flight， but in a hundred years time we will have supersonic land travel as well. we will have used up most of earths land to build our cities， so floating cities will have been built. the japanese already have plans for cities of this kind. and there will be cities under the sea. the first of these will have been completed. 40. we will have developed _ in a hundred yearstime， permitting long journeys all over the solar system. a. cheap rockets for space travel b. a planec. a spaceship d. a satellite41. man will also have supersonic land travel _ . a. in a year b. about half a century later c. in the year 2050 d. about a century later42. the last paragraph mainly talks about _ . a. well make good use of space on the earth b. cities under the seac. japan will first build floating cities d. earths land is in danger43. the best title for the passage is _ . a. travel in the future b. future lifec. where to live in the future d. space travelcsome people are pessimistic(悲观的) when they think about the future. they say that，a hundred years from now， we will have used most of the earths resources. we will have polluted our seas badly，and be unable to eat fish from them. we will have made the air so dirty that we will need to wear masks. the worlds population will have doubled， and we will have used all the countryside for housing; there will be no farmland left. other people believe that man adapts very easily. they have a different idea of the future. how， in their views，will people be living in a hundred years time？one architect believes that man will move off the land. he suggests that the city of the future will be a huge， pyramid-shaped building， which will be floating on the surface of the sea. about 5，000 families will be living there，and the building will contain shops and schools as well as homes. by living on the sea，we will give the farmers more land to grow crops. as for oil，people will no longer need it: we will be heating our homes with power from the sun. and we will not be short of minerals， because there are plenty under our oceans. at the moment， we do not have the technology to get them out. but， in a hundred years time， the optimists say， the new sea cities will be using these resources. what will be in the shops in the year 3000？ what will people be wearing？ how will people be traveling？ scientists who make predictions about the future suggest that， by the year 3000， shops will no longer exist. computers will have replaced them; and people will order goods from home. people will be wearing very light, thin clothes. by this time, scientists will have invented a fabric that keeps us cool in hot weather and warm in cold weather. as for travel， the experts say that most people will be using public transport. electric cars will be traveling through the streets day and night. anybody will be able to stop one and use it. an interesting picture. unfortunately, we will not be there to see if these predictions come true. 44. pessimists believe that in the future _ . a. the seas and oceans will be full of housesb. well have used up all the resourcesc. we will not have enough fish to eat from the seasd. we will have polluted the air so badly that it will be impossible for us to breath 45. optimists suggest that _ . a. all the land will be too polluted to be cropped onb. pyramids will be the most commonly-used housesc. people will be using the power from the sun instead of oild. we will be short of materials even though we get them from under the oceans46. scientists have made the predictions except _ . a. electric cars will be going along the streets continuouslyb. the resources under the oceans will never be used upc. people will order from homed. people wont suffer from cold any longerdthe new model is the highly interactive（互动的）learning model. we could also call it the conversational model, or the tutorial model. it is computer based, with the interaction between the student, or a small group of students, and learning programs are like the conversation between a student and a skilled tutor. distance learning will be the main delivery method. student interaction with the learning material on the computer will use the students natural language; it will seem like a conversation between a student and a human tutor. this is the key point of highly interactive, or conversational, learning units. programs will ask questions in the students native language, and respond reasonably to free-form student input. multiple choice and pointing will seldom be used; they often do not allow individualization (个体化) of education. an important aspect of this model is that the computer will frequently store information about the student, about problems and about how far individual students have progressed. these records will be used often within the programs. thus when a student returns to the learning activity, the computer knows about that student and knows where to begin the new part. global education is critical for the future, to get rid of poverty, corruption (腐败), violence and war, to solve major problems such as the lack of drinkable water, and to insure a happy life for all. education should no longer be limited to the wealthy of the world, but should be available to everyone. in the new distance learning environment learning can take place in markets, libraries, public buildings, learning centers, and the home. gradually schools and universities will play a smaller role in learning, both because better learning can be delivered through such highly interactive material, and because such learning will be less costly for the individual student. motivation (动机)is particularly important in a mastery-based distance learning, as the usual threats of traditional classrooms such as that of low grades are no longer possible, voice input will probably be the mode for this interaction. the new voice input systems from several companies are useful, cheap, and speaker independent in highly interactive learning. keyboards may not be needed. speech is a natural way for humans to communicate. students will work in small peer groups, about four. other contacts with people, learning circles, will be possible, directly or electronically. 47. what is not the new model also called?a. interactive model b. conversational modelc. tutorial model d. linguistic model48. what does the model often use?a. individualization of education b. multiple choice and pointing c. questions in students native language d. fixed-form student input49. what do computers detect students about? a. their future achievements b. their intelligences c. their problems d. their families50. according to the passage, distance learning is _ . a. still expensive for ordinary students b. will take place mainly in classrooms. c. will play more role in students learning. d. will still affect badly on the low-graded students51. what is the chinese for the underlined word “tutorial” in the firsr paragraph?a. 辅导 b. 教具 c. 学费 d. 奖学金eolaf stapledon wrote a book called first and last men, in which he looked millions of years ahead. he told of different men and of strange civilizations, broken up by long dark ages in between. in his view, what is called the present time is no more than a moment in human history and we are just the first men . in 2, 000 million years from now there will be the eighteenth or last men. however, most of our ideas about the future are really very short-sighted. perhaps we can see some possibilities for the next fifty years. but the next hundred? the next thousand? the next million? thats much more difficult. when men and women lived by hunting 50, 000 years ago, how could they even begin to picture modern life? yet to men of 50, 000 years from now, we may seem as primitive in our ideas as the stone-age hunters do to us. perhaps through the spundels and ballalators, these words, which i have just made up, have to stand for things and i
