It passed an important test on the way to travel around the world. The plane took off from an airport（飛機(jī)場(chǎng)）in Switzerland. It slowly rose above the fields and into the sky. “There has never been an airplane of that kind that could fly—never an airplane so big, so light, using so little energy.” said Bertrand Piccard, a leader of the project. During the 90minute flight （飛行）, the plane did several turns. It climbed nearly 1. 6 km above the countryside. Engineers（工程師） plan to test a night flight（飛行）before July. Then they will use the results（結(jié)果）of the tests to build a second plane. They plan to travel around the world in that plane in 2012. “We want to fly it day and night with no fuel（燃料）,” Piccard said. Piccard and pilot （飛行員）Andre Borschberg will take the plane around the world. They will make a few stops to change places and rest after a long time in the airand to show off their airplane. The plane will fly at 70 km per hour on average（平均）. That is faster than a bike and slower than a car. The pilots will keep the plane in the air for up to five days at a time. （1）The passage is probably taken from .A.a postcard（明信片）B.a newspaperC.a ic bookD.an advertisement（2）The solarpowered plane .A.is big and heavyB.uses much energyC.passed the first flight testD.will have a night flight after July（3）How long will it take the solarpowered plane to travel 140 km?A.About a day and a night.B.About 5 days.C.About 2 hours.D.About 90 minutes.（4）Which of the following is NOT mentioned（提到） in the passage?A.During the 90 minute flight, the solarpowered plane reached a height of 1. 6 km.B.The solarpowered plane is slower than a car and faster than a bike.C.Maybe the solarpowered plane will fly with no fuel.D.It took a long time to build the solarpowered plane.8．根據(jù)短文理解選擇正確答案。B The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning（旋轉(zhuǎn)）of the earth. At the equator（赤道）day and night are sometimes the same length（長(zhǎng)度）. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o39。clock in the morning and sets at 6 o39。clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole（北極）is tilted（傾斜）toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere（半球）gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere（半球）. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.（1）When the Western Hemisphere is having day, the Eastern Hemisphere is having ______.A.both day and nightB.dayC.neither（既不）day nor nightD.night（2）A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by ________ of the earth.A.the pushingB.the pullingC.the spinningD.the passing（3）At the equator day is as long as night ________.A.sometimesB.neverC.usuallyD.always（4）When the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere gets ________ sunlight.A.lessB.moreC.allD.no9．閱讀下列短文, 根據(jù)要求完成下列各題。 My problems started after I went to a boarding（寄宿） school. I was only 14, and at first I missed my family a lot. I often called them and cried on the phone. But after two weeks, I found I enjoyed being with my classmates at school. I had many friends who were boys. I thought of them as my best friends—— but only friends. I never guessed my friendships with boys would bee a problem. Then, three months later, my friends told me that some teachers and girls said I was hanging out with （與… 混在一起） boys all day long in order to get attention （注意力） from them. Seven months after that, the head teacher Mr. Wang asked the class to choose some students to join the Student Union. I thought I could win for I was doing well in school. I came first in math and English exams. A week later, the list came out and it didn39。t include me. I was sad. Mr. Wang came to me and said, “Don39。t be sad. I know you39。re excellent!
