24、nglish Channel. Pilot of the plane was Captain Thomas Nash. Looking eastward, Nash saw twelve orange lights in a row, moving at a fantastic rate of speed. As a sophisticated flyer, he had never seen anything like them. Thinking that they might be a new German weapon, he decided to chase them. But wh

25、en he Swung the plane around and headed directly for the lights, they vanished.Captain Nash may have been the first to see such orange lights but he wasnt the last. His experience was repeated several times by pilots during World War in Europe and the Far East. What were they?No one knows for sure,

26、but there is an interesting theory to explain them. According to this theory, the orange lights are space animals-animals specially adapted to life in the upper atmosphere just as some creatures are adapted to life at the bottom of the sea. These space animals, the theory says, live so far up in the

27、 atmosphere that they are invisible from earth. They feed in part on the water in air and partly on energy from sunlight. Being almost pure energy themselves, they can adjust their bodies to glow at night. During the day they become invisible.Before World War , continues the theory, there was little

28、 radiated energy available on the earths surface. Then there came the development of rockets, atomic reactors, and hydroelectric plants. The space creatures are attracted by these sources of energy. At night when no energy emitted from sunlight, they go down into the lower levels to search a meal. T

29、hey may even drift into the scope of human eyesight. This explains the fact that they have been sighted periodically from the earth since 1942.（分数：10.00）(1).The best statement of the main idea of this passage if that _.（分数：2.00）A.Captain Nash saw twelve orange lights moving at a fantastic rate of sp

30、eedB.Captain Nash may have been the first to see lights in spaceC.according to an interesting theory, the orange lights are space animalsD.the mysteries of nature can be completely explained(2).The strange orange lights were first seen _.（分数：2.00）A.from the groundB.from a rocket shipC.during World W

31、ar D.during World War (3).The theory says that during the daytime the space animals _.（分数：2.00）A.glow brightly in the skyB.are invisibleC.can be seen from earthD.visit the earths surface(4).If the space animal theory is true, the creatures go down to the lower regions in order to _.（分数：2.00）A.escape

32、 detectionB.arouse curiosityC.search for man-made energyD.make contact with man(5).The space animal theory would seem to indicate that _.（分数：2.00）A.living creatures are extremely adaptableB.life in space is impossible for manC.the fittest creatures always surviveD.life cannot exist in the depth of t

33、he sea八、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broken up with Helen?“ “When I got that great job did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend?“ “Or did be envy my luck?“ “And Pa

34、ul- why didnt I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?“ When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, its too late.Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we dont really listen

35、, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “Youre a lucky dog.“ Is he really on your side? If he says, “Youre a lucky guy“ or “Youre a lucky gal,“ thats being friendly. But “lucky dog“ ? Theres a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesnt see it himself. But bringing in the

36、“dog“ bit puts you down a little. What be may be saying is that be doesnt think you deserve your luck.“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for“ is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of

37、you life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isnt important. Its telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you havent got a date for Saturday night.How can you tell the real meaning behind someones words? One way is to take a good

38、 look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.Note: guy = boy; gal = girl（分数：1

40、his girlfriend.D.he is sorry that his friends let him down.(2).In paragraph 2, the writer talks about someone saying, “Youre a lucky dog.“ He is saying that _.（分数：2.00）A.the speaker of this sentence is just being friendlyB.this saying means the same as “Youre a lucky guy“ or “Youre a lucky gal“C.the

44、0.00)Hong Kongs once booming movie industry-one of the worlds biggestfaces extinction as video piracy(盗版)becomes more and more popular. Gone are the days when film fans swarmed to cinemas to see latest-released local movies. “the Hong Kong film industry will disappear in a few years unless something

45、 is done,“ said Woody, chief executive of the Motion Picture Industry Association.The industry started going downhill in the early 1990s when major investors backed off in the face of rising copyright piracy. “since the Taiwanese have stopped investing in or buying the copyright for Hong Kong movies

46、 at very high prices, theres not too much money coming in from Taiwan,“ a director said. “Taiwan money had funded at least half of the industry in the late 1980s and early 1990s“. she said. Hong Kong made 86 movies in 2002, a fifth of the 426 produced in 1994. The industry employs just 5,000 people

47、now, down from 30,000 in 1994. The industrys fading attraction has also dimmed the careers of its stars. Now, besides making far fewer films, they have turned to other fields, such as drama, television, radio or business.Copyright piracy is at the heart of the problem. The widespread sale of pirated

48、 video compact discs has drawn audiences away from the big screen or genuine products. Pirated editions flood Hong Kong, with shops selling VCDs of the latest local and Hollywood movies for as little as HK 100 (US 13) for six discs. By contrast, a movie ticket costs about HK 50 (US 6.4). Hollywood s

49、tudios have threatened to stop bringing in their latest movies unless piracy is brought under control. Making a bad situation worse, Hong Kongs economy began to sour in late 1997 amid Asias financial crisis.With the industry in the depression, top members of the Hong Kong film industry, such as actors Jackie Chan and Chow Yurt-fat and director John Woo, now spend more time in Hollywood.In a vicious(恶性的) cycle, the talent drain reduces the motivation for audiences to watch local
