三、阅读理解
18. Do you keep a diary or a journal? Do you remember any entries that stand out?
On February 3, 1880, Theodore Roosevelt wrote in his diary, ＂... I drove over in my sleigh to Chestnut Hill, the horse plunging to his belly in the great drifts, and the wind cutting my face like a knife. My sweet life was just as lovable and pretty as ever; it seems hardly possible that I can kiss her and hold her in my arms. ＂Who was Roosevelt’s ＂sweet life?＂
Roosevelt's ＂sweet life＂was Alice Hathaway Lee, whom he married 10 months after his February 3
diary entry. Sadly, Alice Hathaway died four years later, after giving birth to the couple’s first child in 1884.
Only a few hours earlier, Roosevelt’s mother, Martha Bulloch Roosevelt had died in the same house.
After the double funeral and the christening（洗礼）of his new baby daughter, Alice, on February 17, 1884, Roosevelt wrote, ＂For joy or for sorrow my life has now been lived out.＂
After his wife’s death, Roosevelt consoled himself by writing, hunting, fishing, and working on his ranch(牧场) in the Dakota Territory.
Two years later, he married his childhood friend, Edith Kermit Carow. The Roosevelts had a close and happy family life and little Alice soon became the eldest sister of four boys and a girl. When Roosevelt became president of the United States, the White House became a playground for his six children and a collection of pets, including several dogs, a pony, and a flying squirrel.
Roosevelt continued to record his life, not only in his diaries, but also in his letters. Have you started to record your own personal history?
32.Why do you think Theodore Roosevelt wrote his February 3 diary?
A. Because he lost his sweet life.
B. Because he wanted to show his love to his bride.
C. Because his mother died.
D. Because he wanted to record his marriage life.
33.Where should the sentence ＂Yet, Theodore Roosevelt’s life had only just begun.＂be placed?
A. Between Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3.
B. Between Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5.
C. Between Paragraph 5 and Paragraph 6.
D. Between Paragraph 7 and Paragraph 8.
34.What does the underlined word＂consoled＂mean in Paragraph 6?
A. cursed
B. calmed
C. changed
D. comforted
35.What’s the purpose of the author’s writing the passage?
A. To convince us to make a note of our own history.
B. To show us the effect of Theodore Roosevelt.
C. To teach us how to write a diary.
D. To tell us the love story of Theodore Roosevelt.

故选A。

19. Many people will remember the flight of the space shuttle (航天飞机) Challenger, in June, 1983.The achievement of Sally Ride, America’s first woman astronaut to fly into space, made this flight especially memorable. Students from two Camden, New Jersey, high schools, however, are probably to remember Norma rather than Sally whenever they think about the flight.
Norma didn’t travel alone. She brought about 100 companions along with her. Norma was an ant, a queen ant who, with her subject, made up the first ant colony (群体) to travel into space. The ants were part of a science experiment designed by students to test the effects of weightlessness on insects.
The equipment designed by the students for their colony functioned perfectly throughout the long space trip. The young scientists and their teachers were very sad to find that their insect astronauts had all died at some point before the container was returned to the school and opened. The problem didn’t occur in space, but on the grou nd after challenger had landed. The container remained in the desert for nearly a week before the ant colony was moved. The hot, dry desert air dried out the colony’s container and the ants died from lack of moisture (水分).
The project was termed success because it did provide useful information. Students will continue their efforts to pinpoint (精确找到) what went wrong. They will try to prevent the same difficulties from reoccurring on future missions. They don’t want to be discouraged either by the demise of the ants or by the $10,000 shuttle fare they will have to pay to send the next colony of ants into space.
73．What does the passage mainly tell us?
A．Sally Ride, America’s first woman astronaut.
B．How to keep ants alive in space.
C．How to make equipment for insects in space.
D．An experiment with ants in space.
74．According to the passage, we know that the underlined word “demise” is another word for “__________”.
A．death B．colony C．insect D．moisture
75．We don’t t hink the project was a failure. This is because _________.
A．everything went as smoothly as expected
B．the students had pinpointed exactly the reason
C．something important had been learned
D．the students had succeeded in the experiment
76．We can conclude that ants __________ on the next space trip.
A．will have to be kept alive in a container full of water
B．will have to be sent into space with the first woman astronaut
C．should be put into a container where there is enough food
D．should be put into a container which is not too dry
