III．完形填空(本大题共20个小题，每小题1.5分，共30分)

There is much more water than land on the surface of the earth. The seas and oceans cover nearly four-fifths of the whole world, and only one fifth of it is land. If you traveled over the earth,

31 different directions, you would have to 32 much more of your time moving on water than on 33 or railways. We sometimes forget that for every mile of land there are 34 miles of water.

There is 35 much water on the surface of our earth that we have to use 36 to describe it . We use the word 37 to describe those parts of water surface which 38 only a few hundreds of miles wide, the word OCEANS to describe the 39 areas of water which are thousands of miles wide and very 40 .

A sea such as the Mediterranean provides an easy ways of travelling from one 41 to another. Ships are frequently crossing the small seas of the world in all directions. 42 separate

the great continents, 43 steam ships were invented. A voyage across a wide ocean was a long and sometimes very dangerous journey. Oceans have only been used 44 traveling and trading within the last few hundred years. 45 now, ships use only those parts of oceans which provide

the shortest way across. The other parts of ocean are very 46 visited.

You can understand 47 we don't know much about the oceans because of their huge 48. Another reason why we know so 49 about them is because of their great depth. At the bottom

of an ocean there is black darkness. 50 can not reach the great depth.

Each May the quiet city of India, Napolis is jammed with people. They come to watch the ―India 500‖. This 500-mile race is the most famous of all auto races.

The motor race track is on the spot where an old farm once stood. A man named Carl Fisher bought the land in 1909. The car was a new invention at that time. Hardly anyone took the idea of car racing seriously. Yet Fisher pushed ahead with his plan to build a track.

In two years the track was finished. It took 450 workers, 300 mules(骡子), and seven giant steam rollers to do the job. First, the ground was made perfectly flat. Then gravel was spread over the two-and –a –half –mile track. The top layer was made of crushed (被压碎的)stone and tar. Grandstands to hold 15,000 people were built.

The first races at the track were a disaster. The road broke under the speeding autos. Dust and rocks flew into drivers’ faces. There were several accidents. Some drivers and even some fans were killed.

Auto racing might have ended after that. But Carl Fisher promised to make the track safer. This was done by paving (铺设) it with 3,000 bricks. Safer grandstands were also built. Now they hold 300,000 fans who attend the race each year.

Passage Four

Spain and Australia. After more than a century the Games returned to its hometown.

When people hold the Olympic Games, they always make an emblem (会徽). The

emblem of the Athens Olympic Games is a white circle of olive branches(橄榄枝) in the sky.

world should be at peace. We hope the peace is not just for a short time. We would like the message from the Athens Games to help countries come together and solve their problems."

Four years later, the Olympic Games were held in China. And China made a seal (印章)

as the emblem of the Beijing Olympic Games. The emblem has a single Chinese character on a

red seal and means "Chinese seal-dancing Beijing'. Below it, there are the words "Beijing

2008". The character in the emblem is "Jing". It means "Capital'' of China and it is also like a

Passage Five

The Great Wall of China can, indeed, be seen from outer space with the naked

(赤裸的)eye.

So education officials, who felt worried about changing textbooks—which have long held that the Great Wall and the dykes(堤堰)in the Netherlands were the only man-made structures visible from space—can breathe easy.

Yang Liwei, the nation’s first spaceman, disappointed a lot of Chinese when he said he did not see the wall during his orbit of less than 24 hours in October 2003, giving rise to calls for revisions in

textbooks.

But there is a rider: There are many, many structures which can also be seen, such as the Pyramids of Egypt, airports, highways and even Beijing’s Third Ring Road.

Undoubtedly, it requires an atmospheric ―perfect storm‖ in outer space, defi ned as an altitude of about 350 km and you have to be in the right place at the right time, amid(在…中)the right conditions to spot a particular structure. Chinese-American spaceman Leroy Chiao, who has been on three space flights and is currently coming to the end of his six-month stint(期限)on the joint US-Russian space station, has provided the first photographic evidence of sections of the Great Wall using commercially available equipment.

According to Chiao, the chances of shooting the Gr eat Wall area are ―maybe once every few days and only during daylight every three months.‖ Since late March, Chiao has had just one opportunity to fly over the Great Wall, but the weather was dangerous. He has one last chance before he is scheduled to land in Kazakhstan on April 25—and he will be keeping a sharp lookout.

71. Now the education officials ―can breathe easy‖ because they know ______.

A. they don’t need to change the textbooks

B. they’ve not been seriously mistaken

C. what Yang Liwei said was not true

D. they can revise the textbooks as wished

72. One can get a chance to see the Great Wall from the space station________.

A. every few days

B. only once every three months

C. only when it’s in daylight

D. only when the weather is dangerous

73. The writer’s attitude towards the fact that the Great Wall can be seen from outer space is ______.

A. objective

B. doubtful

C. opposed

D. supportive

74. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Yang Liwei orbited around the earth in less than 24 hours.

B. Leroy Chiao shot the Great Wall with commercially available equipment.

C. To spot a particular structure in outer space, you need right conditions.

D. Leroy Chiao is expected to land in the United States on April 25.

75. What does the underlined word ―rider‖ in the 4th paragraph possibly mean?

A. An imagined conclusion.

B. An added statement.

C. A person in a spaceship.

D. A strange thing.
