1、职称英语理工A完形填空专项试题完形填空题What Is the Coolest Gas in the Universe?What is the coldest air temperature ever recorded on the Earth? Where was this low temperature recorded? The coldest recorded temperature on Earth was -91 which_(1) in Antarctica in 1983.We encounter an interesting situation when we discuss

2、 temperatures in_ (2).Temperatures in Earth orbit actually range from about +120C to -120C. The temperature depends upon _(3) you are in direct sunlight or shade. Obviously, -1200C is colder than our body can safely endure. Thank NASA science for well-designed space _(4) that protect astronauts from

3、 these temperature extremes.The space temperatures just discussed affect only our area of the solar _(5).Obviously, it is hotter closer to the Sun and colder as we travel away from the Sun. Astronomers estimate temperatures at Pluto are about -210C. How cold is the lowest estimated temperature in th

4、e entire universe? Again, it depends upon your _(6). We are taught it is supposedly_ (7) to have a temperature below absolute zero, which is-273C, at which atoms do not move. Two scientists, whose names are Cornell and Wieman, have successfully cooled down a gas temperature barely _(8) absolute zero

5、. They won a Nobel Prize in Physics in 2001 for their work - not a discovery, in this case.Why is the two scientists work so important to science?In the 1920s, Satyendra Nath Bose was studying an interesting_(9) about particles we now call photons. Bose had trouble_(10) other scientists to believe_(

6、11)he contacted Albert Einstein. Einsteins calculations helped him theorize_(12) behave as Bose thought-but only at very cold temperatures.Scientists have also discovered that_ (13) atoms can help them make the worlds atomic clocks even more accurate. These clocks are so accurate today they would on

7、ly lose one second_ (14) six million years! Such accuracy will help us travel in space because distance is velocity times time (d-vxt). With the long distances involved in space _(15) to know time as accurately as possible to get accurate distance.1.A. openedB. occurredC. opposedD. operated2.A. Eart

10、。所以，occurred(发生，出现)是正确的选择。其他三个选项的词义与上下文意思相去甚远。2.B。通观本段，内容是叙述宇宙空间的温度。选项B的space是“宇宙空间”的意思，所以是答案。其他三个选项earth意为“地球”，planet意为“行星”，star意为“恒星”，这三个答案选项在词义上都不合适。3.A。上下文的意思是：地球轨道上的温度是介乎+120至-120之间。温度的变化取决于是向阳还是背阳。whether意为“是否”，故为本题答案。4.D。上文说-120是宇航员无法忍受的温度，下文说美国国家航空航天局生产某种装置来protect astronauts from these temp

11、erature extremes(保护宇航员不受极端温度的侵害)。很明显，这种装置就是space suits，意为“太空服”。5.c。现在讨论的内容是有关太阳系宇宙空间的温度。本段第二句说到太阳对温度的影响：靠近太阳的温度高一些，远离太阳的温度就低一些。所以本题要选system。6.D。整个宇宙空间的温度是多少度呢?温度的高低取决于哪个因素呢?从四个选项分析：温度不会取决于你的education(教育)，你的status(地位)或你的knowledge(知识)，因为这不合乎逻辑。只有选location(位置)才符合上下文的意思。7.C。科学常识告诉我们，绝对零度是宇宙中的最低温度。故impos

12、sible为答案。8.A。本段前面的句子说到最低温度不会低于.273，所以，below，within，beyond都有悖于上述论述。只有above(高于)才与上文的意思相符。9.B。本段第二句说，Bose没有办法使其他的科学家believe his theory，所以第一句的studying an interestin9之后缺失的词应该是“theory”。10.A。Bose一筹莫展，只好求助于爱因斯坦，后者通过计算证实了Bose的理论。本题选convincing(说服)最恰当。0rdering(命令)或forcing(强迫)都不合逻辑。begging(恳求)也太低三下四了，也不符合语境。1 1

13、.D。本段的第二句的前半句与后半句是因果关系，连词要选so。12.B。本句的主句中的谓语动词用的是过去时helped，根据“主句为过去时态，宾语从句一般也要用过去时态”这个时态一致的原则，故本题要选would。13.D。Comell and Wieman荣获诺贝尔物理奖，是因为他们成功地将气体的温度降到接近绝对零度。本文最后两段以实际例子说明他们的成就推动了科学的发展。因此，ultra。small, ultra-fast和ultra.hot都与Cornell and Wieman的研究无关联，不会是答案。只有ultra-cold才是合乎逻辑的选项。1 4.C。从句子“These clocks are SO accurate today they would only lose one
