第2部分:閱讀判斷 (第16-22題,每題1分,共7分)
閱讀下面這篇短文,短文后列出7個句子,請根據(jù)短文的內(nèi)容對每個句子做出判斷。如果該句提供的是正確信息,請在答題卡上把A涂黑;如果該句提供的是錯誤信息,請在答題卡上把B涂黑;如果該句的信息文章中沒有提及,請在答題卡上把C涂黑。
Megaplane(巨型飛機(jī))
The Boeing Corp.a(chǎn)nd Europe's Airbus consortium(財團(tuán))are preparing to offer bigger airplanes to the world's airlines.Now that talks on a ioint project have broken down,Boeing is pushing a stretched(拓展的)version of the 747,and Airbus is designing'an all-new aircraft,known as theA3XX.
Seating 550 passengers in the basic model,and 650 in a stretched version.the 1.2 million pound A3XX will not only be the largest airplane in the world,but it,will also be one of the most advanced.The outer wings and the horizontal stabilizer(as big as a smaller jet's wing)will be made of carbon-fiber composite materials,and will be the largest such structures on any aircraft except the B-2 stealth bomber(隱形轟炸機(jī)).Metal skins will be welded (焊接)together with lasers,removing thousands of fasteners.
When a strong wind strikes the A3XX's 260-foot wing.movable control surfaces will prevent it from flexing(扭曲)like a giant spring.This will make the ride smoother and will save weight by reducing the load on the wing spars(翼梁).A flexible.skinned flap(副翼)will subtly change the wing's curvature(曲面)to match the airplane's changing weight as it bums fuel on each journey.
The A3XX will carry up to 1,600 meals,filling more than,1 00 food and beverage(飲料) carts.To make more room for passengers,Airbus plans to put the carts in the lower hold;
automatic conveyors and elevators will deliver them to the two passenger decks.Airlines have asked Airbus to look at extra features ranging from lower-deck sleeper cabins to a children's
playroom.
Airbus expects to offer the A3XX to airlines in 1998,and deliver the first aircraft in 2003.
16 The basic model ofA3XX can carry more than 500 passengers.
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
17 A3XX will fly faster while consuming less oil.
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
18 A3XX will be bigger than the B-2 stealth bomber.
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
19 No fasteners will be used in bullding A3XX because all components will be welded together.
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
20 The wing of A3XX will not be spoiled surfaces are designed to be movable.
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
21 Airbus plans to build a mini-restaurant in the lower hold of A3XX.
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
22 The first A3XX will be available in 2003.
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned

Electromagnetic Energy
1.White light seems to be a combination of all colors.The energy that comes from a source of light is not limited to the kind of energy you can see.Heat is given off by a flame or an electric light.On a cloudy day it is possible to get a sunburn even though you feel coo1.Visible light and the kinds of energy that produce warmth and sunburn are examples electromagnetic energy.
2.The sun is 93 million miles from the earth.Yet we can use energy from the sun because electromagnetic energy travels through space.
3.Many other kinds of energy are also types of electromagnetic energy.Radio,television,and radar signals travel from transmitters to receivers as low-energy electromagnetic waves . Intrared(紅外線的)radiation is an electromagnetic wave.When it is absorbed by matter,heat is produced.Waves of infrared and visible light have more energy than waves of radio,television,or radar.Ultraviolet rays(紫外線)and,X-rays are electromagnetic waves with even greater amounts of energy . Infrared radiation is used in cooking food and heating buildings . Sunlight and electric lights are part of our requirements for normal living.Ultraviolet radiation is useful in killing certain disease organisms.X-rays and gamma rays have so much energy that they travel right through solid objects.They can be used to detect and treat cancer.X-rays are used in industry to find hidden cracks in metal,and in medicine to reveal broken bones.
4. Usually we use electricity to generate electromagnetic energy.The source of most of our energy is the sun.Heat from the sun causes water to evaporate.When the water falls to the earth as rain,some of it is trapped behind dams and then used to operate electric generators.Other generators are powered by coal,but the energy stored in coal came from the sun.too.
5. Until recently,the source of the tremendous amount of energy given off by the sun was a puzzle.If the sun depended on chemical reactions,it would have used up all its energy long ago.Experiments with electromagnetic radiation led to the theory that mass can be converted into energy.About forty years after the theory was proposed,nuclear energy was harnessed(利用)by man.Chemical energy comes from electron(電子) rearrangement. Nuclear energy comes from a change in the nucleus of an atom.Compared with chemical reactions.nuclear reactions release millions of times more energy per pound of mel.We now believe that the sun's energy comes from the nuclear reactions in which hydrogen is changed into helium (氦).
6. Nuclear energy is beginning to compete with coal as an economical source of power to generate electricity.It is also being used to operate engines in large ships.Scientists continue to seek new and better methods of obtaining and using energy.
