Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Researchers have solved a long­standing mystery：why rocks on a flat lakebed in Death Valley National Park in California sometimes move. Racetrack Playa，the waterless lakebed，is named for the long trails(痕迹)that the rocks，some of which weigh hundreds of pounds，leave in the earth.
What was one of the world's natural wonders now appears to be the perfect combination of rain, wind，ice and sun，scientists have found.Dr.Norris and James M．Norris，a cousin and co­author, actually saw the rocks moving in December when they went to check on the project.
For their study, they used special global positioning
system tools, designed by James Norris，in rocks of various
sizes brought from outside the park. They were not allowed to
move or change anything of the existing playa stones.
No river flows into the playa, though rainwater sometimes fills part of it to a depth of a few inches.It's when this happens, and the nights are below freezing and the days are fine, that the rocks may“sail”，the researchers said. On those occasions, the cold night air leaves a sheet(薄片)of ice only an eighth of an inch thick. Then the warmth of the sun causes the sheet to break up. As more ice melts, some of these lesser sheets have room to move.Driven by light winds, the sheets push up against rocks. The wind drives the water，too，which also helps push the ice to some degree. The movement is slow, no more than about 15 feet a minute.
The movements are episodic—the conditions may be just right for a few minutes, and then the sun causes more ice to break and the movement stops.And once the water disappears，it may be years before the rocks move again，even if the playa floods again，because the right temperature and wind conditions may not occur.
【语篇解读】美国加州的赛马场盐湖常年干旱，而上面的石头为什么会移动呢？科学家已经破解了这一自然之谜。

1．What do we know about Racetrack Playa?
A．It has flat rocks in the earth.
B．It is covered by rocks.
C．It has some valleys.
D．It is usually dry.
D[细节理解题。

根据第一段中的“Racetrack Playa，the waterless lakebed”和第四段中的“No river flows into the playa”可知，赛马场盐湖经常是干涸的。

] 2．What was the park's attitude to using GPS in the lakebed's stones?
A．It doubted the method.
B．It was against doing so.
C．It felt it was worth a try.
D．It thought it was useless.
B[推理判断题。

根据第三段中的“They were not allowed to move or change anything of the existing playa stones”可知，死亡谷国家公园不允许科学家在赛马场盐湖的石头上使用全球定位系统。

3．Why do the stones “sail” according to the Norrises?
A．They are moved by big floods.
B．They move just because of strong winds.
C．They are mainly pushed by wind­driven ice.
D．They move very slowly on smooth ice sheets.
C[细节理解题。

根据第四段中的“Driven by light winds，the sheets push up against rocks”可知，两位科学家认为，石头周围形成的冰在风的作用下使得石头移动。

]
4．What does the underlined word “episodic” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A．Amazingly big.
B．Extremely slow.
C．Happening sometimes.
D．Going on without stopping.
C[词义猜测题。

由最后一段可知，能够让石头移动的条件非常特殊，很少出现，所以可推断episodic应该是“偶尔发生”的意思。

B
Mary and Peter were having a picnic with some friends near
a river when Mary noticed an object overhead.“Look！”she
shouted to her friends.“That's a spaceship up there and it's going
to land here.”
Frightened by the strange silver­colored spaceship，most of the young people got in their cars and drove away quickly.Peter was fond of Mary and always stayed close to her.They，more curious than frightened，watched the spaceship land and saw a door open.When nobody came out，they went to the spaceship and entered inside. Peter followed Mary into the spaceship and did not hear the door close behind him. The temperature fell rapidly and the two young people lost consciousness.
When they woke up，they were surprised to see that they were back by the river again. The spaceship had gone.Their car was nearby.
“What happened？”asked Mary.
Peter scratched(挠)his head，saying slowly，“Don't ask me. Perhaps we had a dream. Did you...Did you see a spaceship？”
“Yes，”said Mary，“And we both went into it.Then...”She looked at her wrist.“That's funny.My watch has stopped.Oh，well，come on.It's time to go home.”
Driving about fifty meters，they found their way blocked by a thick wall made of something like glass.They got out of the car and tried to find their way round the wall but discovered that they were inside a circular(圆形的)wall.It was like a mirror and prevented them from seeing through it.
On the other side of the wall，strange creatures walked past slowly.A few stopped to stare through the wall and read a new notice which，translated into English, said，“New arrivals at the zoo：a pair of earthlings(地球人)in their natural surroundings with their mobile house.”
【语篇解读】两个青年人在野餐时遇到了一艘宇宙飞船，结果他们被带到
另一个星球，成为外星人观看的“动物”。

5．When the spaceship arrived, why didn't Peter drive away?
A．He did not like leaving Mary.
B．He knew that the spaceship was harmless.
C．He was too frightened to drive.
D．There was a wall blocking the road.
A[推理判断题。

根据文章第二段“Peter was fond of Mary and always stayed close to her.”可知Peter非常喜欢Mary而不愿意离开她，故可推断正确选项为A。

] 6．Why did Peter enter the spaceship?
A．He saw the food and was hungry.
B．Mary told him to enter it.
C．He just followed Mary.

7．Peter scratched his head so we know that ．
A．he had lost consciousness
B．he was puzzled and did not know what to say to Mary
C．he had lost his memory
D．he was still half asleep
B[推理判断题。

根据第五段“Peter scratched his head，saying slowly，‘Don't ask me.Perhaps we had a dream.Did you...Did you see a spaceship？’”即彼得挠着脑袋，慢吞吞地说：“别问我，或许我们做梦了，你看见飞船了吗？”可知彼得迷惑不解，故选B。

]
8．What do the words“strange creatures”tell us?
A．They were wild animals in a zoo.
B．They were robbers.
C．They had landed on the earth in a spaceship and lived there.
