    LONDON — Britain awoke on Easter Monday to a period of mourning for the Queen Mother, who died over the weekend after a life spanning a century of noisy and evident change. The 101-year-old royal matriarch died in her sleep last Saturday with Queen Elizabeth, her elder and only surviving daughter, at her bedside. For a woman who was one of the best-known figures in Britain for more than 80 years — from the era of tinted portraits on tin biscuit boxes and cigarette cards to the age of the Internet, the Queen Mother remained an enigmatic(不可思議的) and elusive(躲避的) figure. She achieved such a respect through aeons(永世, 億萬(wàn)年) of, first, fawning and, later, intrusive media fascination, by remaining almost entirely silent. Her private thoughts were never paraded(炫耀) in public. What the public saw was a charming and benign elderly lady, adept at winning the admiration of press photographers, whom she always favoured with a particular smile.
    CHINA’s third unmanned spacecraft, Shenzhou Ⅲ, landed safely in central Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Monday afternoon, after orbiting the earth 108 times in slightly less than a week. The craft, which lifted off from Jiuquan in Gansu Province last Monday night, landed after successfully conducting a chain of flight and scientific experiments over a period of 162 hours.
    A powerful earthquake jolted Taiwan, killing five construction workers, authorities(官方) said. Over 200 injuries ware reported across the island, mostly minor, as a result of Sunday’s 7.5-magnitude quake. The quake was centred off Hualien, 180 kilometres east of Taipei. It struck at 2:53 pm and lasted for nearly a minute.
    1. Which of the following statements is true according to the news? A. The Queen Mother died on Easter Monday alone.
    B. The Queen Mother was an attractive person in her political life. C. The British people felt sorry for the death of the Queen Mother. D. The Queen Mother was suffering a lot when she was dying.
    答案解析:答案為C。本題為推理題。由第二段首句 “She achieved such a respect through aeons of,?”可推斷,皇太后贏得了永世的尊重,人們對(duì)她的去世會(huì)感到遺憾。故C選項(xiàng)正確。
    由第一段第二句話 “The 101-year-old royal matriarch died in her sleep last Saturday with Queen Elizabeth, her elder and only surviving daughter, at her bedside.” 可知,皇太后在安睡中去世,當(dāng)時(shí)女兒伊麗莎白女王陪在她的床邊,故A、D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。由第二段后面的內(nèi)容 “Her private thoughts were never paraded in public. What the public saw was a charming and benign elderly lady, adept at winning the admiration of press photographers, whom she always favoured with a particular smile.”可知,她的個(gè)人思想從未在公眾面前炫耀過(guò),公眾看到的總是面帶微笑的她在媒體照片
    中出現(xiàn),故可推斷,她并未從政,故B選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。 2. It can be inferred that _______.
    A. the craft landed in central Inner Mongolia unexpectedly B. it took the craft at least 2 hours to orbit the earth once C. the Chinese scientists did a lot of experiments in space
    D. China was successful in sending an unmanned spacecraft into space 答案解析:答案為D。本題為推斷題。由第三段的第一句話 “CHINA’s third unmanned spacecraft, Shenzhou Ⅲ, landed safely in central Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Monday afternoon, ?” 可知,無(wú)人飛船已經(jīng)安全著陸,故D選項(xiàng)正確,A選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。B選項(xiàng)未提及;由首句的關(guān)鍵詞 “unmanned”可推斷,無(wú)人宇宙飛船上面不會(huì)有科學(xué)家在太空中做實(shí)驗(yàn),故C選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。
    3. The third news mainly talks about the _______ in Taiwan. A. political matters B. social problems C. unexpected damage D. construction workers 答案解析:答案為C。第三則新聞報(bào)道臺(tái)灣發(fā)生了地震,屬于沒(méi)有預(yù)料到的災(zāi)害,故C選項(xiàng)正確。
    B
    June 26, 2000 — the Human Genome(基因組) Project, a great $3 billion, 15-year task aimed at drawing the genetic(遺傳的) map of humans, is now more than 90 percent completed. The scientific and medical communities(團(tuán)體) are very excited about the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging(延長(zhǎng)) human life. But those communities and policy(政策) makers also are careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life. For the last few years, the genetic advances in the developing field of biotechnology(生物技術(shù)) have provides material for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of the human genetic code(密碼) have opened a world of possibilities for human health, as well as for the popular imagination.
    While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid progress in decoding(解碼) human DNA, the leading organization for genetic research is in the United States, which began in 1990, is “unlocking the code” of the human body to learn how to defeat fatal(致命的)diseases. Already, the Human Genome Project has become widely known and praised for finding the genes(基因) connected with terrible diseases as yet(迄今), and making progress toward separating the genes that show a sign of breast cancer or AIDS.
    Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections(傳染), and genetic diseases. Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome, as they expect to develop a lot of new drugs for these illnesses.
    1. Why did the scientists work hard at mapping the human genome?
    A. Because the human genome can destroy many illnesses.
    B. Because the human genome's completion can help them get rid of many diseases.
    C. Because they wanted to be better known than others.
    D. Because the human genome can provide a lot of chances of work. 答案解析:答案為B。本題為細(xì)節(jié)推理題。由第一段第二句話 “the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging human life.” 和最后一段首句 “Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections, and genetic diseases.” 可知,科學(xué)家繪制人類基因組圖是為了驅(qū)除疾病,故答案為B。A選項(xiàng)表述不正確;C、D在文中均未提到。
    2. Which country studied the genes most rapidly in the world? A. Japan. B. Germany. C. The United States. D. China.
    答案解析:答案為C。本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。由第三段首句提到的 “?the leading organization for genetic research is in the United States, ?”可知,答案為C。
    3. Which of the following is NOT true?
    A. If the genes can be found, scientists can study many new ways to cure illnesses.
    B. The scientists have made great progress in connecting the genes with the cancers.
    C. Many medical companies show great interest in drawing the human genome map.
    D. The United States began the Genes Study early in the 19th century. 答案解析:答案為D。本題為細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。由第三段首句提到的 “which began in 1990” 可知,美國(guó)是在20 世紀(jì)末開(kāi)始繪制人類基因組圖的,故D選項(xiàng)表達(dá)錯(cuò)誤。
    由最后一段首句 “Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections, and genetic diseases.”可知,A選項(xiàng)與文意符合;由第三段最后一句 “?and making progress toward separating the genes that show a sign of breast cancer or AIDS.” 可知,B選項(xiàng)與文意符合;由最后一段最后一句話 “Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome, ?”可知,C選項(xiàng)與文意符合,均不選。
    4. The author suggests that the Human Genome Project can cause _______. A. the policy makers to feel very worried and careful B. the scientists to work harder C. many people to find work easily
    D. a lot of companies to produce many new drugs
    答案解析:答案為B。本題為推理題。由第一段最后一句話 “But those communities and policy makers also are careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life.” 可知,A選項(xiàng)表述與文意不符。C選項(xiàng)未提及。由最后一段最后一句話 “Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome, as they expect
    to develop a lot of new drugs for these illnesses.”可知,D選項(xiàng)是文中的一個(gè)事實(shí),不需要推理,故不選。
    結(jié)合全文內(nèi)容和第一段提到的 “June 26, 2000 — the Human Genome Project, a great $3 billion, 15-year task aimed at drawing the genetic map of humans, is now more than 90 percent completed.” 可以推斷,繪制人類基因組圖是一個(gè)長(zhǎng)期的項(xiàng)目,現(xiàn)在雖然完成了百分之九十多,但是作者在文中也暗示了這個(gè)項(xiàng)目需要科學(xué)家更努力地工作,故B選項(xiàng)正確。 5. The main idea of this article is about _______. A. unlocking genetic code B. the genes' discovery C. the great human genome
    D. the genes and the scientists 答案解析:答案為A。本題考查文章的主旨大意。結(jié)合第二段提到的 “?but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of the human genetic code?”和第三段提到的 “? is ‘unlocking the code’ of the human body to learn how to defeat fatal diseases.” 可知,解讀基因密碼可以知道如何打敗疾病。故答案為A。B、C、D都不是文章的中心。
