You are to write in three parts: In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement. In the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary. Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. 【正确答案】： 参考范文 Which do You Prefer, Sharing a Room with a Stranger or Living by Yourself? There are always two aspects to any situation. Sharing a room with a stranger while studying in a university or college has its advantages and disadvantages. It is true that studying requires peace and quietness. A stranger who shares a room with you may disturb you. Your thoughts can be interrupted by his sudden return, or by his asking for a light, or merely by his cough or sneeze. At night, when you want to sleep, he may be tossing in bed, making enough noise to keep you awake. If the stranger is bad tempered, he may quarrel with you, and yet you must have patience. However, there are many positive aspects of sharing a room with a stranger. First, you will not feel lonely although you are far away from your home. You always have another person in the room to share you in your joys and sorrows. Second, you and your roommate can help each other. Whatever difficulty you are in, you can get a helping hand to overcome it. If the person you live with is older than you are, you may derive advice from him on your work and study. Third, living with a stranger offers you a chance of learning to get along with people. Since you have to live with a stranger for quite a long period, you will do your best to make friends with him. If you are successful in gaining his confidence, it means you may also be successful in the more complicated and competitive society. Therefore, I think sharing a room with a stranger is a good arrangement of living despised some disadvantages. I prefer to live with a roommate rather than live alone. 二、Writing(Note-Writing)（本大题1小题．每题10.0分，共10.0分。Write a note of about 50—60 words based on the following situation:） 第1题   Write in your ANSWER SHEET ONE a note of about 50-60 words to a friend of yours based on the following given situation: Your friend, Jimmy, is iii, you want to visit him after working, but you can't.

B Just. C Impulsive. D Trustful. 【正确答案】：B 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [听力原文] F: Johnny, what's your impression on English people? M: Well, they are the most reserved, the most suspicious, the most unreceptive, the most unfriendly, the coldest-hearted, and the most domineering of all western peoples. F: Why? It seems that you have great prejudice against the English people. M: Not necessarily. This is the judgment by all other European people. Ask a Frenchman, an Italian, a German like me, or even an American, what he thinks about Englishmen; and every one of them will tell you the very same thing. F: Don't you have any compliment for the English people? M: Oh, yes. You would find upon the other hand that nearly all nations would speak highly of certain other English qualities-energy, courage, honor, and justice. Although no man is so difficult to make friends with, the friendship of an Englishman once gained is more strong and true than any other. What do you think of them any way? F: I don't know much about English people. But last semester, we had a teacher named Mr. McCourt teaching us writing, he is from Liverpool, he is rather silent, reserved, and not amiable. Some of us were really afraid of him. But he was a great teacher, and has taught us many writing techniques. I have made much progress. M: Then he is a typical English man, for the Englishman of the best type is much more inclined to be just than he is to be kind. F: That's right. Mr. McCourt often told that kindness is an emotional impulse, and we should on our guard against every kind of emotional impulse. M: But with all this, the character is a grand one, and its success has been the best proof of its value. [点拨] 原文中有 "You would find upon the other hand that nearly all nations would speak highly of certain other English qualities--energy, courage, honor, and justice."一句. 第2题 Where does Johnny come from?

I suggest you give employers an example of what you can do for them. You may create a new area in your resume. Call it" value offered". In two sentences, state the value you would bring to that particular employer. M: Hey, I get that point! For example, I can say things like" I can reduce your operations costs by streamlining our shipping department". F: Exactly. But be specific and create a separate resume for each company you approach. By the way, do you feel nervous at an interview? M: Oh, yes. I always think these interviewers want nothing but to humiliate us. So I always feel it's like facing your enemy. F: Then you should give yourself an attitude adjustment.

The guy said the average millionaires made B's and C's in college. Their average score was not good enough to get into many top-notch schools. M: You mean most millionaires are not intellectually gifted, not smart enough to succeed? F: Yes. There is no correlation between grade point averages and economic achievement, none. There are some very bright people in the data, but not many. M: If it doesn't rely on natural genius, what makes a millionaire then? F: Millionaires choose careers that match their abilities. They may not have great analytic intelligence, but they are creative and practical. They focus on a goal, take calculated risks and then work harder than most people. M: It's a lesson I should take to heart. [点拨] 原文中有"A Thomas J.

Choose the one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answers on Answer Sheet Two. 第1题 A breakthrough in the provision of energy from the sun for the European Economic Community could be brought forward by up to two decades, if a modest increase could be provided in the EEC's research effort in this field, according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EEC's scientific laboratories at Ispra, near Milan. The senior West German scientist in charge of the community's solar energy program, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told jurnalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three percent of the Community's energy requirements even after the year 2000. But he said that with a modest increase in the present sums, devoted by the EEC to this work it was possible that the breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade. Mr. Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three percent of the EEC's needs, this could still produce a saving of about a billion bounds in the present bill for imported energy each year. And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might be possible to satisfy a much bigger share of the Community's future energy needs. At present the EEC spends about $2.6 millions a year on solar research at Ispra, one of the EEC's official joint research centers, and another $3 millions a year in indirect research with universities and other independent bodies. The underlined phrase" be brought forward" (Para. 1) most probably means ______. A be advanced B be completed C be expected D be introduced 【正确答案】：A 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 大意判断题。本题需要根据上下文推断出be brought forward这一词组的意思。在“A break-through in the provision of energy from the sun for the European Economic Community could be brought forward by up to two decades…”一句中，be brought forward的动作的对象是a breakthrough(突破)，同时be brought forward的程度是by up to two decades，由此可判断be brought forward应具有“使一种突破提前多至20年实现”的意义，四个选项中只有选项A：be advanced与此意义相近，故选项A为正确答案。“A breakthrough could be expected/be introduced/competed by up to two decades”在意义上不通，故选项B，C和选项D也不正确。 第2题 According to Mr. Gretz, the present sum of money will enable the scientists to provide ______. A less than 3% of the EEC's needs before the year 2000 B 3% of the EEC's needs before the year 2000 C a little more than 3% of the EEC's needs after the year 2000 D only 3% of the EEC's needs even after the year 2000 【正确答案】：A 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 细节理解题。本题询问根据西德科学家Mr．Joachim Gretz，told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three percent of the Community's energy requirements even after the year 2000．”明确说明按照目前的科研预算，即使是到了2000年后，太阳能也只能满足欧共体能源需要的3％不到。因此A项内容“(使科学家)在2000年前为欧共体提供不足3％的对太阳能的需要”符合文章内容。其他三项内容明显与文中第二段的第一句内容不符。 第3题 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A The desired breakthrough could be obtained by the end of the next decade if investment were incrzeased. B At the present level of research spending, it is difficult to make any significant progress in the provision of energy from the sun. C The EEC spends one billion pounds on imported energy each year. D The total yearly spending of the EEC on solar energy research amounted to almost 6 million dollars. 【正确答案】：C 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 细节理解题。本题需要根据文章内容判断四个选项内容的正确与否。文章第二段最后一句话说明只要略微增加投资的话，下个10年结束时有可能实现突破。可见选项A符合本文的内容。根据最后一段可知选项C是错的。 第4题 The Carnegie Foundation report says that many colleges have tried to be" all things to all people". In doing so, they have increasingly catered to a narrow minded careerism while failing to cultivate a global vision among their students. The current crisis, it contends, does not derive from a legitimate desire to put learning to productive ends. The problem is that in too many academic fields, the work has no context; skills, rather than being means, have become ends. Students are offered a variety of options and allowed to pick their way to a degree. In short, driven by careerism," the nation's colleges and universities are more successful in providing credentials(文凭) than in providing a quality education for their students." The report concludes that the special challenge confronting the undergraduate college is one of shaping an" integrated core" of common learning. Such a core would introduce students" to essential knowledge, to connections across the disciplines, and in the end, to application of knowledge to life beyond the campus." Although the key to a good college is a high-quality faculty, the Carnegie study found that most colleges do very little to encourage good teaching. In fact, 'they do much to undermine it. As one professor observed: "Teaching is important, we are told, and yet faculty know that research and publication matter most." Not surprisingly, over the last twenty years colleges and universities have failed to graduate half of their four-year degree candidates. Faculty members who dedicated themselves to teaching soon discover that they will not be granted tenure(终身任期), promotion, or substantial salary increases. Yet 70 percent of all faculty say their interests lie more in teaching than in research. Additionally, a frequent complaint among young scholars is that "There is pressure to publish, although there is virtually no interest among administrators or colleagues in the content of the publications." One of the reasons for the current crisis in American colleges and universities is that ______. A a narrow vocationalism has come to dominate many colleges B students don't have enough freedom in choosing what they want to learn C skills are being taught as a means to an end D students are only interested in obtaining credentials 【正确答案】：A 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知目前学校危机的原因是他们努力地迎合人们狭隘的就业中心论的思想，故A是正确答案。本题亦可用排除法，因为B项内容与文章内容相反，C和D的内容是现在学校危机的表现，而并非原因。 第5题 American colleges and universities failed to graduate half of their four-year degree candidates because ______. A most of them lack high-quality faculties B the interests of most faculty members lie in research C there are not enough incentives for students to study hard D they attach greater importance to research and publication man to teaching 【正确答案】：D 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 推断题。根据文章第二段第三和第四句“As one professor observed，‘Teaching is important，we are told． and yet faculty know that research and publication matter most．’Not surprisingly, over the last twenty years colleges and universities have failed to graduate half of their four-year degree candidates．”尤其是这两句话中间的“Not surprisingly”，可知前一句是后一句的原因，故正确答案是D。 第6题 It can be inferred from the passage that high-quality college education calls for ______. A putting academic work in the proper context B a commitment to students and effective teaching C the practice of putting leaning to productive ends D dedication to research in frontier areas of knowledge 【正确答案】：B 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 大意判断题。综观全文，作者在第一段讨论了目前高校危机的原因是学校只教给学生技术而不教给他们方法在第二段讨论了危机的另一原因，那就是缺乏有效的教学活动，不言而喻，高素质的大学教育呼唤对学生负责的意识和有效的教学活动，故B为正确答案。 第7题 In 1983, when oil process were till high in my area, I installed a ground-source heat pump in my brand-new, and insulated 1,600-square-foot house. It cost several thousand dollars more than comparable systems that use oil, gas, or wood, but I figured I'd recover my higher initial expense in a few years through lower energy bills. True, my heat pump runs on electricity-an expensive commodity where I live. But most of its energy comes from the earth: a propylene-glycol solution circulates through 1,200 feet of two-inch-diameter plastic pipe buried three feet deep in a field next to my house. As it travels, the solution absorbs heat from the surrounding soil, even when soil temperature drops below freezing. My ground-source heat pump also offers important benefits that have nothing to do with economics. *Minimal fire hazard-no chimney, firebox, or heating elements-only pumps, fans, and a compressor. *Cleanliness-no combustion products, thus no chance of my heating system polluting the indoor air, leaving scummy deposits on walls and furniture. *Reliability-solid-state electronic controls and sealed bearings almost eliminate breakdowns. *No maintenance-no wood' to cut, ashes to haul, or chimney to clean. *Convenience-the system runs automatically, even switching from heating to air conditioning as needed. I can simply lock the door and go away for a day, week, or month. Not only did I expect to start saving on energy costs immediately, but I also expected those savings to grow over the years as oil process continued to soar. Since I was wrong about oil prices, the big dollar savings I'd hoped for haven't materialized. Nevertheless, I am satisfied, all things considered. The passage suggests that the author's heat-pump system absorbs heat from ______. A soil in a nearby field B sun panels at ground level C a pipe buried next to the walls D a tank of propylene glycol 【正确答案】：A 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 细节理解题，相对应的原文是“But most of its energy comes from the earth．．．As it travels，the solution absorbs heat from the surrounding soil．．．”，由此可见，A是正确的。 第8题 One benefit the author mentions is that the system ______. A uses no electricity B has a fire-safety shutoff C does not pollute the air in the house D pollutes the air in house 【正确答案】：C 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 细节理解题。本题询问系统的优点，文中列举了5个优点，并有记号一一标出。与原文相比可知，只有C是属于优点之一的。 第9题 The best title for the passage is ______. A Preparing the Ground for a Pump System B Pros and Cons of the Ground-Source Heat Pump C The Ground-Source Heat Pump D It Works for Me! 【正确答案】：D 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 大意判断题。询问全文的主旨，因此分析全文的结构有助于解题。文章第一段讲了“我”装置“the groundsource heat pump”的目的所在，接着介绍了装置的优点，最后一段表明了“我”的态度，即“我”对此装置还是比较满意的，因此，四个选项之中只有D全面地概括了文章的中心内容。 第10题 The mystery had now reached its climax: the man had undoubtedly been murdered, and it was absolutely certain no one could conceivably have done it. It was therefore time to call in the great detective, who gave one searching glance at the corpse, then produced a microscope. "Aha!" he exclaimed as he picked a hair off the lapel of the dead man's coat." The mystery is a mystery no longer. We have only to find the man who lost this hair, and the criminal will be in our hand." The inexorable chain of logic was complete, and the detective embarked on his search. For four days and four nights he moved unobserved through the streets of New York, scanning closely every face he passed, looking for a man who had lost a hair. On the fifth day he discovered a man disguised as a tourist, his head enveloped in a cap reaching below his ears. The man was about to board the Gloritania, and the detective lost no time in following him on board. "Arrest him!" shouted the detective, and then, drawing himself to his full height, he brandished aloft the hair." This is his," said the great detective," and it proves his guilt" . "Remove his hat," ordered the ship's captain sternly. It was discovered that the man was entirely bald. "Aha!" exclaimed the great detective without a moment's hesitation." He has committed not one murder, but about one million!" The detective declared the mystery solved before he ______. A found the hair B produced the microscope C searched for the murderer D glanced at the corpse 【正确答案】：C 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 细节理解题。按照文中侦探的所为，可将其动作顺序排列如下gave one glance→produced a microscope→picked a hair。这些动作都发生在“declare”之前，因而此三项可排除。此外，侦探在宣布此案已不再是不解之谜之后，才“embarked on his search(开始寻找)”也佐证了C项为正确选项。 第11题 The writer implies that ______. A the detective's search took five days B the Gloritania was about to leave New York C the ship's captain refused to cooperate D most New Yorkers are bald 【正确答案】：B 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 推断题。文中没有明确交待“Gloritania”离开何地，驶向何方，但从第三段开头的“he moved unobserved through the streets of New York”中可以得知此事发生在纽约，而从本段的最后一句“following him on board(随他上船)”中可推知此船要离开，因此可合理推出B项为正确答案。A项文中有明确交待；C项有悖事实(船长命令疑犯摘下帽子说明他是合作的)D项文中未提及，实乃无中生有。 第12题 The theme of this story is that ______. A those using logic are not always logical B mysteries can always be solved by using logic C detectives can never be trusted D guilt can always be proved scientifically 【正确答案】：A 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 大意判断题。从文章开始神秘命案使人束手无策到大侦探的介入，使案情出现转机的是他捡到了一根头发，按逻辑，以此为线索就应该找到凶手，因此，他把注意的焦点放在人们的头发上。当他看见一个游客把头包在帽子里，又把帽子拉得很低，盖住耳朵时，逻辑告诉他此人在试图掩盖他丢失一根头发这一事实，因此他贸然断定此人乃杀人凶手。当此人脱帽露出秃头时，逻辑继续引导他作出荒谬的推论丢一根头发，犯一个命尧满头该有发丝百万根，而此人满头的头发都没有了，说明他谋杀了一百万人。可见，逻辑的出发点是正确的，却推出了错误的结论。B项有悖文中的事实。C项过于绝对，因为文中讲述的只是个案，因此不应推而广之。D项不是作为该文的主题来挖掘的。 第13题 Like other forms of life on this planet, human beings face a basic task: to deal satisfactorily with their conflicts and thereby secure the advantages of community and cooperation. Unlike other forms of life, human beings are born with a capacity to reflect on this task and to search for better solutions by conscious thought and careful choices. The task of overcoming conflicts and achieving community life and cooperation arises because human beings are unable and unwilling to live in complete isolation. The advantages of cooperation and community life are so numerous and so obvious that they must have been evident to man from earliest times. By now, our ancestors have closed off the choice; for most of us the choice of total isolation from a community is, realistically speaking, no longer open. Nevertheless, however strongly human beings are driven to seek the company of one another, and despite thousands of years' practice, they have never discovered a way in which they can live together without conflict. Conflict exists when one individual wishes to follow a line of action that would make it difficult or impossible for someone else to pursue his own desired. Conflict seems to be an incapable aspect of the community and consequently of human beings. Why conflict seems inescapable is a question that has troubled many people: philosophers, historians, social scientists, doubtless a great many ordinary propel." Conflict is built into the very nature of men and women," said James Madison," Human beings have diverse abilities, and these in turn produce diverse interests." The main point of this passage is that ______. A human beings by their nature will always conflict with each other B James Madison made many thoughtful comments about human beings as social animals C our need for fellowship and the advantages of cooperation create communities D humans have not yet been able to achieve complete harmony and to live without conflict 【正确答案】：A 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 大意判断题。文章开篇便指出人类像这个星球上的其它生命一样，需要较好地解决其间的冲突并保证群体及合作的优势，尤其就人类而言，之所以需要解决冲突并保持群体生活与合作，是因为人们不能够、也不愿意生活在完全隔离状态中，这些成为判断的主要依据，原文中只引用了James Madison的两句话，显然选项B与事实不符，故不正确，原文中同样没有群体缘何产生的叙述。 第14题 Which of the following is mentioned in the passage? A The basic task for humans and other forms of life on this planet is to deal with their conflicts successfully. B James Madison said that the varied interests in civilized nations divide them into different classes with different views. C To exist without conflict would mean fear and danger of death. D Conflict exists when people live in complete isolation. 【正确答案】：A 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 细节理解题。见前面的分析，判断依据是该篇中“human beings face a basic task：to deal satisfactorily with their conflicts and thereby secure the advantages of community and cooperation”这句话。 第15题 It can be concluded from the passage that ______. A conflict can be overcome if we live and work alone B it is impossible for human beings to avoid conflict with one another C the best solution to the problem of conflict is isolation from the community D human beings have found the way to deal with their conflicts 【正确答案】：B 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [精解] 推断题。综合阅读全篇内容发现，冲突实在无法避免，因此选择B。 第16题 One of the questions that is coming into focus as we face growing scarcity of resources of many kinds in the world is how to divide limited resources among countries. In the international development community, the conventional wisdom has been that the 2 billion people living in poor countries could never expect to reach the standard of living that most of us in North America enjoy, simply because the world does not contain enough iron ore, protein, petroleum, and so on. At the same time, we in the United States have continued to pursue super affluence as though there were no limits on how much we could consume. We make up 6 percent of the world's people; yet we consume one-third of the world's resources. As long as the resources we consumed each year came primarily from within our own boundaries, this was largely an internal matter. But as our resources come more and more from the outside world, "outsiders" are going to have some stay over the rate at which and terms under which we consume. We will no longer be able to think in terms of "our" resources and "their" resources, but only of common resources. As Americans consuming such a disproportionate share of the world's resources, we have to question whether or not we can continue our pursuit of super affluence in a world of scarcity. We are now reaching the point where we must carefully examine the presumed link between our level of well-being and the level of material goods consumed. If you have only one crust of bread, then an additional crust of bread doesn't make that much different. In the eyes of most of the world today, Americans have their loaf of bread and are asking for still more. People elsewhere are beginning to ask why. This is the question we're going to have to answer, whether we're trying to persuade countries to step up their exports of oil to us or trying to convince them that we ought to be permitted to maintain our share of the world fish catch. The prospect of a scarcity of, and competition for, the world's resources require that we reexamine the way in which we relate to the rest of the world. It means we find ways of cutting back on resource consumption that is dependent on the resources and cooperation of other countries. We cannot expect people in these countries to concern themselves with our worsening energy and food shortages unless we demonstrate some concern for the hunger, illiteracy and disease that are diminishing life for them.

C They will work in two 10-person teams. D They will work in two 15-person teams. 【正确答案】：D 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [听力原文] I'm so glad to see so many of you sign up for this cleanup project. We need all the help we can get. As you probably know, we'll be cleaning up the trails of this mountain today. Let's begin by dividing the group. There are thirty of us, so we'll divide up into two fifteen-person teams. I want one team to take the east side of the mountain and pick up litter along the trails, paying special attention to the picnic areas. And the other will take the west side and pick up the litter, paying special attention to the rivers and streams. I'm passing around plastic trash bags for you to place the litter in. Please take at least two bags, as there is a lot of trash. When you've filled the bags, bring them back to this area and we'll dump them altogether into that huge trash bag. If you find any aluminium cans, toss them into the many boxes we have already placed along the trail. Later, we will pick up the boxes and take the cans to the recycling center.

A Leaders in the community. B Clerks. C Members of Congress. D Members of special interest groups. 【正确答案】：C 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [听力原文] I'm sure that most of you already know that only members of Congress may introduce a bill, or present the bill for the group's consideration. Introducing the bill is a great honor and many Congress people consider it a historical move because many of these bills eventually become law. But before the bill can be considered, it must first be drafted, or put into the proper language. Usually a Congressional staff member familiar with the particulars of the Congressional vocabulary drafts the bill. In addition, many businesses, labor, farm, and other special interest groups will also draft bills they want Congress to consider. When the bill is ready for consideration, it follows two different procedures, depending on where the bill is introduced. In the House, representatives place their bills in the hopper. A hopper is a special box on a clerk's desk. From this box, the bills go into the appropriate House committee for further study. In the Senate, senators go in front of the Senate floor and introduce their bills to the whole group. [点拨] 原文中有"I'm sure that most of you already know that only members of Congress may introduce a bill, or present the bill for the group's consideration." 一句。 第5题 What does "draft a bill" mean?

D It means to send the bill to the executive branch. 【正确答案】：B 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [点拨] 原文中有"But before the bill can be considered, it must first be drafted, or put into the proper language"。 第6题 What is a hopper?

B Asteroid material. C Steel. D Uranium. 【正确答案】：A 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [听力原文] Government officials have expressed anxiety over the decent of Telstar Tina, a satellite which is slowly reentering the earth's atmosphere. The satellite is supposed to make its descent sometime within the next several months. Because Telstar Tina is built of titanium, it is not expected to disintegrate upon reentry. In fact, there are fears that dozens of pieces weighing up to several kilograms could survive the reentry process. Although several kilograms sounds like a small amount of material, it must be remembered that when an object from space strikes the earth, the consequences can be disastrous. Many scientists believe that the asteroids from space striking the earth may have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. Even an object as large as several grams can destroy an entire house. If larger pieces fall on an inhabited area the devastation would be significant. The pieces of the satellite are not expected to all land in one area. It is likely that they would be spread out over hundreds of kilometres. This is a dangerous situation in which many homes could be destroyed and many people injured. If we are lucky, the pieces of the satellite will fall over the oceans. Luckily, since the oceans cover almost three quarters of the earth's surface, there is a good chance of that happening. [点拨] 原文中有"Because Telstar X is built of titanium..." 一句。 第8题 According to the news, what is the worst damage that object falling in the sky could have caused? A The destruction of a house. B The destruction of cities. C The destruction of species of animals.

A It will distintegrate. B There could be damage to houses. C The satellite will no longer function. D Many pieces will fall into the oceans. 【正确答案】：C 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [点拨] 原文中有"Government officials have expressed anxiety over the decent of Telstar X, a satellite which is slowly reentering the earth's atmosphere" 一句。 第10题 What is the size of the piece of Telstar Tina expected to strike the earth? A Several ounces. B Large enough to kill the dinosaurs. C Large as a house. D More than one kilogram. 【正确答案】：D 【本题分数】：1.0分 【答案解析】 [点拨] 原文中有"Although several kilograms sounds like a small amount of material...."一句。 跟多试卷请访问《做题室》www.zuotishi.com
