本句话后面的“…bytrappingheatfromthesun.”可知这里是讲温室的工作原理，温室的工作原理是蓄留来自太阳的热量，所以选work。22.C。 根据下一句“Thiscausesthegreenhousetoheatup…”可知，太阳光透进窗玻璃后，热量却被阻止散出，从而使温室内温度上升。escape有“(气体)逃出、逸出”的意思，符合语境。23.D。 温室的原理就像停在阳光下的小汽车内部一样，阳光透进以后，热量不易散出。注意：因为类比的是thegreenhouse的内部，所以对停在阳光下的小汽车来说就是指其内部了，而并非车窗。24.A。 根据此句的关键词inwinter可知选择A项，其他的选项干扰性较为强烈，但是如果是针对inwinter这个特殊环境的话，选择A项是最佳选择。温室内温度的升高可以使植物在冬天能保持温暖，促进生长。25.A。 根据本段最后一句“Someoftheenergypassesbackintospace,butmuchofit29,trappedintheatmospherebythegreenhousegases,causingourworldtoheatup.”可知当阳光进入大气层后，有一部分热量将会被一些温室气体(大气中的二氧化碳、水气、甲烷、氮氧化物、臭氧等)trappedintheatmosphere，从而导致地球表面温度上升。这个原理与温室的原理是相同的。那么大气中这些能够trap一部分热量的温室气体的作用就很类似温室里窗玻璃的作用。所以此题选择A项behave比较合适。26.B。 因为还没有被吸收，所以这里用太阳光比较合适，描述太阳光先进入地球的大气层……27.A。 从其后的Onceabsorbed可得到暗示，太阳光穿过厚厚的一层温室气体后到达地球的表面，大地、水和生物圈都会吸收一部分太阳光的能量。28.C。 地球吸收热量后，一些能量依旧返回大气层。从后面的一些到了太空中，一些被trappedintheatmospherebygreenhousegases可以看出。29.D。 remains保留下来。从后面的trappedintheatmospherebygreenhousegases“一些被大气层中的温室气体蓄留”可知答案。30.A。 根据其后内容可知是在谈温室效应的影响，从后面的“Iftheeffectbecomesstronger…”可以得到提示。2语法填空阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为31-40的相应位置上。词数：138完成时间：8分钟难度：**Everystudentwillbefacedwiththequestionwhenhepassesthecollegeentranceexaminations:Shouldwechooseagoodmajor31agooduniversityfirst?Somestudentsprefer32(consider)majorsfirstsothattheycanlearn33theyareinterestedin.Itwillalsomake34possibleforthemtotaketheirfavoritejobsinthefuture.35,those36thinkdifferentlybelievethattheenvironmentisimportanttoone'sdevelopmentand37graduatesfromleadinguniversitiesareoftenmorelikelytofindagoodjob.38myopinion,thebestchoiceisagoodmajoratagooduniversity.Ifwecannotobtainboth,thefirstthing39(consider)isagoodmajor,becausenomatter4031．or32．toconsider33．what34．it35．However36．who37．that38．In39．toconsider40．where31．or，表选择关系：32．toconsider，prefertodosth．是固定结构，“更喜欢做……，宁愿做……”33．what，考查由what引导的宾语从句：34．it,此处的it作形式宾语：35．However。表意思的转折，“然而，可是”：36．who，who引导定语从句：37．that，由and连接的两个宾语从句，其中引导第二个宾语从句的that不能省掉。38．In，inone'sopinion是固定搭配，“依照／按照某人的观点”.39．toconsider,thefirstthingtodo表“要做的第一件事”，动词不定式todo作后置定语：40．where，nomatterwherewestudy表“我们无论在哪里学习”：3阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。词数：314完成时间：7分钟难度：***InJune,2007,agroupofstudentsfromeighthighschoolsinWinnipeg,thecapitalofCanada’sManitobaprovince,willbegintest-launching(试发射)asatellitethesizeofaRubik’scube.Theone-kilogramWin-Cubsatellite,namedforitshomecityanditsshape,willbeputintoloworbit.Onceinspace,itcanperformforafewmonthsoruptoseveralyears,communicatinginformationthatcouldhelpfindthesignsofearthquakes.Thereare80similarsatelliteprojectsworldwide,butthisisthefirsthigh-schoolbasedprogramofitskindinCanada.30Manitobahighschoolstudentsarehavingahandindesigningandbuildingthesatellite,incooperationwithaerospace(航空航天的)expertsand10studentsfromtheUniversityofManitoba,andwithsupportfromtwootherorganizations.TheWin-Cubeprojectisnotsomethingthatgoesonapieceofpaper;itisreal-worldengineering,allowinghighschoolstudentstohaveanopportunitytolearnmoreabouttheexcitingworldofengineeringthroughtheirparticipationinthischallengingprogram.ItisalsotakenasawonderfulexampleoftheuniquepartnershipswithinManitoba.Designing,buildingandlaunchingasatellitewithhigh-schoolparticipationwillbringthisworld-classeducationalprojectintorealityandManitobaclosertospace.“TheseManitobahighschoolstudentsdeservecongratulationsfortheirenthusiasm,innovation(创新),andastronglovefordiscovery,”saidEducation,CitizenshipandYouthMinisterPeterBjomson.“Wewanttomakesciencemorerelevant,interestingandattractivetohighschoolstudentsbyshowingthemhowclassroomstudiescanrelatetopracticalexperienceintheworkplaceor,inthiscase,inspace,”Bjomsonadded.TheWin-Cubeprogramismainlynamedatinspiringastrongdesirefordiscoveryonthepartofthestudents.ItalsoshowsManitoba’sdevotiontoresearchandinnovationandthedevelopmentofaskilledworkforce—allimportantdriversofknowledge-basedeconomicgrowth.41.Accordingtothepassage,theWin-Cubesatelliteis.A.namedafterManitobaanditsshapeB.intendedforinternationalcommunicationC.designedlikeaRubik’scubebothinshapeandsizeD.challengedbyuniversitystudentsaroundtheworld42.AccordingtoMr.Bjomson,.A.thoseManitobahighschoolstudentsareworthpraisingB.thestudyofspacecanbepracticallymadeinclassroomsC.ManitobahighschoolsarefamousforthestudyofspaceD.scientificresearchistoofarawayfromhighschoolstudents43.Theprimarypurposeoftheprojectisto.A.findtheearlysignsofearthquakesB.relatestudiestopracticalC.helphighschoolstudentsstudyreal-worldengineeringD.inspireastrongdesirefordiscoveryamongthestudents44.WhichofthefollowingstatementsisWRONG?A.InCanadathereare80similarsatelliteprogramsinall.B.Thesestudentswillhaveanopportunitytolearnmoreaboutengineeringthroughtheproject.C.Thesehighschoolwillhaveastronglovefordiscoveryandbeinterestedinscience.D.ThisWin-CubeprogramisverysuccessfulinCanada.45.Thebesttitleforthispassagemaybe.A.ManitobaSchool
