共用题干第一篇In the dark night of the desert,a group of U.S.Air Force scientists is testing a new device for a missile to target.Designed to seek out the heat of an enemy aircraft engine,it is now going through its paces by tracing the movement of a flashlight waving thirty feet away in the darkness.A hundred yards away,unseen by the man,a rattlesnake sliding between the stones senses a patch of warmth. Although the snake's mechanism is small enough to be packed into a head the size of a nut,it can detect a change in temperature of one-thousandth of a degree.With a sound the snake closes in and strikes for the kill.Whenever we look in the animal world we find the same story.Almost anything that man can do,nature has already done better. So,it is for the purpose of learning from nature that a new science called bionics has grown up.Its aim is to find out how animal's instruments work so that man can copy them for his own purpose.Imagine being able to know a friend several miles off by his smell. Male silk moths can do this. Their antennae are so sensitive to the chemical odor of female moths that they can detect their presence by picking up only one molecule of the chemical.Even with their most sensitive instruments, human cannot approach this perfection.Studying beetle's eyes has already paid off. A group of scientists in Germany found that a beetle can accurately measure with its eyes the speed of moving background.After finding out how a beetle accomplishes this scientists built a machine that operated on the same principle.This instrument is able to determine the ground speed of moving aircraft with a high degree of accuracy.The writer compares the rattlesnake with a missile in order to______.A:show the deadliness of the missileB:demonstrate what bionics isC:show that man is wiser than natureD:demonstrate that a rattlesnake is dangerous
共用题干On May 1,2006,New York's Empire State Building celebrated its 75th birthday.When it was built in 1931 it was over 61 m taller than its nearest rival,the Chrysler Building,and at 381m remained the tallest in the world for 41 years,until the World Trade Center was completed in 1972- 1973.The story of the Empire State Building begins with two men's race to build the highest man-made structure in the world.In 1889 the central feature of the World's Fair in Pairs was Gustav Eiffel's massive tower,constructed with wrought iron,and standing 300m high.Architects in the United States viewed this as something of a challenge,and by the early 20th century the race was on to erect taller buildings than ever before.Soon skyscrapers were springing up along the New York sky-line.In 1928 the founder of the Chrysler Corporation,Walter Chrysler,announced the building of a huge new skyscraper,taller than anything so far constructed in New York.It soon became clear that the new building was part of Chrysler's aim to challenge the motoring giant General Motors.So John Jakob Raskob,of General Motors,decided to race Chrysler to the top.The final height of Chrysler's building was kept secret until it was completed,so Raskob instructed his architects to construct the highest tower they could.Their architectural plans had to be modified as the Chrysler Building grew ever higher,but when it topped 77 stories the Empire State Building team knew that they could beat it.No building project has yet exceeded the Empire State Building's record for speed of construclion.From the beginning of construction in March 1930 it took 410 days and approximately 7 million man-hours to build.It rose at an astonishing speed of 4.5 stories per week,thanks to careful planning and quality of work.The building was officially opened on May 1,1931,by President Hoover. The Architects in the United States viewed the Eiffel towel as something of a challenge,and decided to build something taller.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned

共用题干Verne's Accurate Previw of the FutureSince the beginning of time,man has been interested in the moon.The Romans designed a special day to show admiration and respect to the moon.They called it“Moonday”,or “Monday”,as we know it today.Later,the great mind of Leonardo da Vinci studied the moon and designed a machine to carry a human to the moon.Leonardo said that one day a great machine bird would take a person to the moon and bring great honor to the home where it was born.Four and a half centuries later,Leonardo's idea was realized.Apollo Ⅱ took threeAmericans一Collins,Aldrin,and Armstrong一to the moon.The mission did fill the whole world with great surprise,as Leonardo had said it would.Numerous essays,articles,and books were written about man's first moon mission.But perhaps the most interesting story was one written before the event一over 100 years ago.In 1865,French author Jules Verne wrote a story about the first journey to the moon.His story was very similar to the 1969 Apollo Ⅱ mission.Verne's spacecraft also contained three men一two Americans and a Frenchman.The spacecraft was described as being almost the same size as Apollo Ⅱ .The launch site in Verne's story was also in Florida.The spacecraft in Verne's story was named the“Columbiad”aa.The Apollo Ⅱ command ship was called“Columbia”.His account of sending the space-craft into the space could easily have been written about how Apollo Ⅱ was sent into the space.Verne's story was the same as the actual event in several other respects.The speed of Verne's spacecraft was 36,000 feet per second；Apollo's was 35,533 feet per second.Verne's spacecraft took 97 hours to reach the moon；Apollo's time was 103 hours.Like Apollo's spacemen,Verne's spacemen took pictures of the moon's surface,relaxed on their seats, cooked with gas,and experienced weightlessness.They also came down in the Pacific and were picked up by an American warship.What were the reasons for Jules Verne's extreme accuracy in describing an event 100 years or more before it actually occurred?He based his writings on the laws of physics and astronomy（天文学）.Nineteenth-century science and the vivid Verne's imagination gave people an unbelievable accurate preview of the greatest events of the 20th century.Leonardo da Vinci said that a great machine bird would______.A:bring great honor to the moonB:fly toward the sunC:explore the heavensD:take people to the moon

St.Martin’s Press has announced the release of the paperback edition of Picking Cotton, a remarkable true story of what novelist John Grisham calls an “account of violence, rage, redemption(救赎)，and, ultimately forgiveness.” The story began in 1987, in Burlington, North Carolina, with the rape of a young while college student named Jennifer Thompson. During her ordeal, Thompson swore to herself that she would never forget the face of her rapist, a man who climbed through the window of her apartment and assaulted her brutally.________(1) When the police asked her if she could identify the assailant(袭击者) from a book of mug shots, she picked one that she was sure was correct, and later she identified the same man in a lineup. Based on her convincing eyewitness testimony, a 22-year-old black man named Ronald Cotton was sentenced to prison for two life terms. Cotton’s lawyer appealed the decision, and by the time of the appeals hearing, evidence had come to light suggesting that the real rapist might have been a man who looked very like Cotton, an imprisoned criminal named Bobby Poole._______ (2) Jennifer Thompson looked at both men face to face, and once again said that Ronald Cotton was the one who raped her. Eleven years later, DNA evidence completely exonerated(证明……清白) Cotton and just as unequivocally(明确地) convicted Poole, who confessed to the crime. ________(3) “The man I was so sure I had never seen in my life was the man who was inches from my throat, who raped me, who hurt me, who took my spirit away, who robbed me of my soul,” she wrote. “And the man I had identified so surely on so many occasions was absolutely innocent.” _______ (4) Remarkably both were able to put this tragedy behind them, overcome the racial barrier that divided them, and write a book, which they have subtitled “Our memoir of injustice and redemption.” Nevertheless, Thompson says, she still lives “with constant pain that my profound mistake cost him so dearly______ (5)” 4 （单项选择题）（）AThompson was shocked and devastated.BAnother trial was held.CI cannot begin to imagine what would have happened had my mistaken identification occurred in a capital case.DDuring the attack, she made an effort to memorize every detail of his face , looking for scars , tattoos (纹身) or other identifying marks.JenniferEMany criminals are sent to prison on the basis of accurate testimony by eyewitnesses.FJennifer Thompson decided to meet Cotton and apologize to him personally.
