Our planet is like a bit spaceship. Our atmosphere acts 1 a shield against harmful radiation and space debris. 2 holds the air and people on the spaceship, 3 everything doesn't float away. Each of us is an astronaut and our spaceship, the earth, provides our food and water. The sun is our energy 4 and without it we would not be able to survive.
5 every spaceship, the earth is a closed system. The only thing we receive from the outside is energy from the sun. Everything else must be used 6 again. We astronauts don't seem to realize that this spaceship is the 7 one we've got. We 8 its resources and waste the energy the plants have stored from the sun. If we 9 our spaceship, we will destroy ourselves as well. Maybe if we look at the universe which surrounds us, we will appreciate our own spaceship more and take 10 care of it. Part Ⅴ TranslationDirections: Translate the following passage into Chinese and put your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.
1. Recent developments in astronomy have made is possible to detect planets in our own Milky Way and in other galaxies. This is a major achievement because, in relative terms, planets are very small and do not emit light. Finding planets is proving hard enough, but finding life on Earth will prove infinitely more difficult. The first question to answer is whether a planet can actually support life. In our own solar system, for example, Venus is far too hot and Mars is far too cold to support life. Only the Earth provides ideal conditions, and even here it has taken more than four billion years for plant and animal life to evolve. Whether a planet can support life depends on the size and brightness of its star, that is its "sun". Imagine a star up to twenty times larger, brighter and hotter than our own sun. A planet would have to be a very long way from it to be capable of supporting life.
天文学方面的最新发展使得我们能够在银河系和其他星系发现行星。这是一个重要的成就。因为相对来说,行星很小,而且也不发光。寻找行星被证明是相当困难的,但是要在行星上发现生命将被证明更加艰难。第一个需要解答的问题是,一颗行星是否有能够维持生命的条件。举例来说,在我们的太阳系里,对于生命来说,金星的温度太高,而火星的温度则太低。只有地球提供了理想的条件,而即使在这里,植物和动物的进化也用了40亿年的时间。一颗行星是否能够维持生命取决于它的恒星——即它的“太阳”——的大小和亮度。设想一下,如果一颗恒星比我们的太阳还要大,还要亮,还要热20倍。那么一颗行星为了维持生命,就要离它的恒星非常远。
Part Ⅵ WritingDirections: You are to write in no less than 120 words about the title " The Cooperation". You should base your composition on the outline given in Chinese below.
1. 合作的意义。
2.合作在工作中的重要性(举例)。
3.怎样培养合作的能力?
The cooperation
Cooperation means that people should work together smoothly for the purpose of mutual benefit. In the work they should help each other and learn from each other. They should have mutual respect, too.
Cooperation is important in our work. Without it, we will fail. For example, two years ago, our institute managed to get a joint research project with a university in the south of China. At first everything went on all fight. Then there was a misunderstanding and argument. Finally, the cooperation could not continue and the project failed. This example can show the importance of cooperation. I believe there are more examples.
I think people should start to cultivate their sense of cooperation when they are very young. For example, in primary schools, pupils should be taught how to play with others, and how to study together. At university, students should be told frequently that in today's world, individual is impossible to make big achievements, and they have to work or conduct research with others. Besides, they should be given a chance for team work. Then I think that people will be able to cooperate well with others.
