題目列表(包括答案和解析)
It’s not only rocket scientists and journalists who are following the course of “Shenzhou V”,or “Divine ship/vessel V”.There are also lexicographers,or dictionary compilers.The flight of the Spacecraft last week might help put some new words into orbit.?
One of them is a western media coinage used to refer to the Chinese astronauts.It s a combination of the Chinese pinyin “taikong”,meaning space,and the English “astronaut”,from classical Greek:“star sailor/navigator”,for people who was going into space as a career.
In the Reuters and AP reports of October 15,“taikonaut” was used as a proper noun.For example:The long March 2F rocket carrying “taikonaut” Yang Liwei lifted off into a clear blue sky over the Gobi desert at 9 am and entered its orbit 10 minutes later.?
A Long March 2F rocket called the Shenzhou V—“divine ship” in Chinese—carried a single “taikonaut” named Yang Liwei,38,following Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin and American Alan Shepard in 1961.?
The word “taikonaut” is not a newly coined term.It first emerged in November,1999,when China launched its first unmanned “Shenzhou Ⅰ” spacecraft.?
At that lime,some English news media predicted that China would soon launch a manned space flight and created the word “taikonaut” for the Chinese astronauts.It was then borrowed by the Germans media.?
But it was left out of mainstream dictionaries,such as the Merriam—Webster Dictionary and Cambridge Advanced English ?
Learner’s Dictionary.?
However,the launch of the “Shenzhou V” will most likely help boost its status since there is already a word referring specifically to Russian astronauts in the dictionary entry.?
An astronaut of Russian (or the former Soviet Union)is called a “cosmonaut”,from the Russian “kosmonaut”.The word was derived from classical Greek:“kosmonaut” (universal)and “nautes”.One might argue that “cosmonaut” is a Russian variation on the earlier word “astronaut”.
On March 14,1995,US astronaut Norman Thagard became the first American to ride into space on-board a Russian launch vehicle,arguably making him the first American cosmonaut.?
And if this trend of coinage continues,more English variations for astronaut will appear as more countries are able to send their own astronauts into outer space,what would Western journalists call an astronaut from India or Africa we’ll have to wait to see.?
66.Give the best title of the passage.(within 10 words)?
解析:主旨大意題。本文主要介紹了因為中國載人航天事業(yè)的發(fā)展而派生的一個新英語詞匯“taikonaut”的由來。?
第二節(jié): 信息匹配 (共5小題; 每小題2分，滿分10分）
閱讀下面一篇文章，文章后有七個選項，從A、B、C、D、E、F、G的七個選項中選出五個符合每一段文章主旨大意的選項。
To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear． (56)__________．
Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit motionless before his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings．Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about． (57) _______________．
The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a actor doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s．The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand．What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage． (58)_________________．
A good teacher works in quite a different way．His audience takes an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t understand something, they say so．The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his audience, which is his class．He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along． (59)_________________．
I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what another had written． (60)_______________．
A．Characteristics of a good teacher
B．Qualities of a good actor
C．What makes up a good teacher
D．What makes a teacher famous
E．It is not easy for a good teacher to become a good actor．
F．The image（印象）of a good teacher
G．Duties of a good teacher
第二節(jié) 讀寫任務(wù)（共1小題；滿分25分） 閱讀下面的短文，然后根據(jù)
以下的任務(wù)和寫作要求，寫一篇150詞以上的英語短文。
【寫作內(nèi)容】 本篇文章敘述的是 “假如我又回到了童年，我就會有各種各樣的設(shè)想” 這樣一個主題。請閱讀下面這篇文章后，簡明扼要地復述這篇文章的基本內(nèi)容以及本篇文章的主旨大意；然后根據(jù)這篇文章所敘述的各種各樣的情況，結(jié)合現(xiàn)實生活，用120詞以上就“If I were a boy again, …”為標題，談一談假如你又回到了童年，你的設(shè)想又是什么呢？
If I were a boy again, I would practise my perseverance（毅力） more often, and never give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient. If we want light, we must conquer(戰(zhàn)勝) darkness. Perseverance can sometimes equal genius（天賦） in its results. If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once. The habit of attention would become part of our life if we began early enough. If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation（培養(yǎng)）of the memory. I would strengthen that skill by every possible way, and on every possible occasion. It takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; But memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. It only needs early cultivation to become a power.
【寫作要求】
1．作文中可使用自己的親身經(jīng)歷或虛構(gòu)的故事，也可以參照閱讀材料的內(nèi)容,但不得直接引用原文中的句子；
2．文中不能出現(xiàn)真實姓名和學校名稱。
【評分標準】概括準確、語言規(guī)范、內(nèi)容合適，篇章連貫。
If I were a boy again, …

The question was once asked of a highly successful businessman，“How have you done so much in your lifetime?” He replied, “I have dreams. I have turned my mind loose to imagine what I wanted to do. Then I have gone to bed and thought about my dreams. In the night I dreamed about my dreams. And when I awoke in the morning , I saw the way to make my dreams real. While other people were saying, ‘You can’t do that. It’s impossible.’ I was well on my way to achieving what I wanted.” As Woodrow Wilson, 28th President of the US, said, “We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers.”
They see things in the soft haze of a spring day, or in the red fire on a long winter’s evening. Some of us let these dreams die, but others nourish and protect them; nourish them through bad days until they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.
So please, don’t let anyone steal your dreams, or try to tell you they are impossible.
“Sing your song, dream your dreams, hope your hope and pray your prayer.”
