（总分：50.00 ，做题时间：90 分钟）

一、Reading Comprehension（总题数：11，分数：50.00）

1. Part III Reading Comprehension （40 minutes）Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.

解析：

2. Task 1Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked

A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice ．

解析：

We don't have beds in the spacecraft, but we do have sleeping bags. During the day, when we are working, we leave the bags tied to the wall, out of the ways. At bedtime we untie them and take them wherever we've chosen to sleep. On most spacecraft flights everyone sleeps at the same time.

No one has to stay awake to watch over the spacecraft; the craft's computers call us on the radio.

On the spacecraft, sleep-time doesn't mean nighttime. During each ninety-minute orbit （轨道） the

sun

ises and shines through our windows for about fifty minutes, then it sets as the spacecraft takes us around the dark side of the Earth. To keep the sun out of our eyes, we wear black sleep

masks. It is surprisingly easy to get comfortable and fall asleep in space. Every astronaut （宇航员） sleeps differently: some sleep upside down, some sideways, and some right side up. When

it's time to sleep, I take my bag, my sleep mask and my tape player with earphones and float （漂浮） up to the flight deck （驾驶舱）. Then I get into the bag, and float in a sitting position just

above a seat, right next to a window. Before I pull the mask down over my eyes, I relax for a

while, listening to music and watching the Earth go by under me. （分数：10.00 ）

（1）.When the astronauts are working, sleeping bags are fastened ___ . （分数： 2.00 ）

A. on the wall V

B. to their seats

C. onto the flight deck

D. anywhere they like

解析：解析：根据题目中的sleeping bags 定位到第一段。该段第二句话谈到，在工作的时候，宇航员都是把睡袋系在墙上的（tied to the wall）。故A项是正确答案。

（2）.Why can all the astronauts sleep at the same time? （分数： 2.00 ）

A. They have to follow the same timetable.

B. The radio will take care of the aircraft for them.

C. There are enough sleeping bags in the spacecraft.

D. There is no need for them to watch over the spacecraft. V

解析：解析：根据题目中的sleep at the same time 定位到第二段。该段第二句说到，没有必要一直守着飞船（No one has to stay awake to watch over…），如有异常情况，计算机系统会发出通知。所以，宇航员们大可放心地同时睡觉。

故 D 项是正确答案。
