Sam and Joe were astronauts. There was once a very dangerous trip and the more experienced(有经验的) astronauts knew there was only a small chance of coming back alive. Sam and Joe, however, thought it would be exciting though a little dangerous. “We’re the best men for the job,” they said to the boss. “There may be problems, but we can find the answers.” “They’re the last people I’d trust(信任),” thought the boss. “But all the other astronauts have refused(拒绝) to go.”
Once they were in space, Joe had to go outside to make some repairs(维修). When the repairs were done, he tried to get back inside the spaceship. But the door was locked. He knocked but there was no answer. He knocked again, louder this time, and again no answer came. Then he hit the door as hard as he could and finally a voice said, “Who’s there?” “It’s me! Who else could it be?” shouted Joe. Sam let him in all right but you can imagine that Joe never asked to go on a trip with Sam again!

试题分析:这篇短文主要介绍了山姆和乔在别人认为任务非常危险的时候,争取了这个飞行的任务,在飞行中乔到舱外维修,回来时敲门山姆还问他你是谁。
小题1:推理判断题。根据短文第一段There was once a very dangerous trip and the more experienced(有经验的) astronauts knew there was only a small chance of coming back alive描述,有经验的宇航员知道这次的飞行生还的机会非常小,所以大部分人不想去,故选C.
小题2:细节理解题。根据第一段We’re the best men for the job,” they said to the boss. “There may be problems, but we can find the answers.”和“But all the other astronauts have refused(拒绝) to go.”描述,山姆和乔向老板请求任务,其他的人都拒绝飞行,故选D

小题4:是非判断题。根据第一段“They’re the last people I’d trust(信任),” thought the boss. “But all the other astronauts have refused(拒绝) to go.”可知他们在老板的眼中不一定是最好的,因为其他人都拒绝了这个任务。

Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all! It is said that our body movements communicate about 50 percent of what we really mean while words only express 7 percent. So, while your mouth is closed, your body is just saying..
Arms. How you hold your arms shows how open and receptive(能容纳的) you are to people you meet. If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of anything. Outgoing people generally use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to their bodies. If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show you're unhappy!
Head.When you want to appear confident, keep your head level(水平). However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little.
Legs. Your legs will move around a lot more than usual when you are nervous or telling lies.
Posture(姿势). A good posture makes you feel better about yourself. If you are feeling unhappy, you usually don't sit straight, with your shoulders inwards. This makes breathing more difficult and makes you feel nervous or uncomfortable.
    Face.When you lie, you might put on a false face. But that expression would not last long.  And your true emotions such as happiness, sadness, fear and so on will come through.
小题1: When someone is keeping his arms behind his back, he tries to tell you that       .
A.he is outgoingB.he is angry
C.he is not afraidD.he is cool

A.Your legs move around a lot more than usual.
B.You sit straight and hold your head up.
C.You put on a false face
D.You keep the arms to the sides of the body.
小题4:What can we infer(推断) from the passage?
A.Different people in different countries must have the same understanding of the same body movement.
B.Body language can express more meanings than words
C.We cannot communicate with others without words.
D.It's not polite to use body language in communication.
小题5:Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

Seventy-five million pieces of mail can be put in these offices in one year.
There the workers of the dead mail offices have        ways to deal with all of these pieces of dead mail. First of all, they look for        that can help them deliver the mail; they open packages, expecting that something        will show where the package came from or is going to. Dead mail will also be listed on a       so that people can call in and check to see if a missing thing is there on the screen.

Every three months, some people who are        are invited to the offices with objects found in dead mail packages and they are sold to the       bidder (出价者).

Lucky, our beautiful dog, isn’t with us any more. But she brought such joy and love into our lives          we still miss her. There are so many wonderful stories about the love in this dog, but my favorite is this one:
It was an autumn day in Minnesota. Unexpectedly, a big snowstorm which no one was prepared for          our city.
We have two apple trees in our backyard. Lucky loved apples. When she went outside, she’d hold an apple in her          and take it into the house to save for eating later. The apples had been on the ground and were often dirty so I wasn’t always          that Lucky had brought them into the house.
On the day that it snowed too early in the season, Lucky went outside and I       her from the window. I noticed that she was         digging to bring the apples to the surface so they could be seen         the snow. I wondered why she was doing this. She seemed to be completely busy with some kind of important task to find as many         as possible during her yard time.
      , she had one apple in her mouth when I called her back into the house. About five minutes later I looked outside. The yard was completely covered with birds. Lucky had         all those apples for her bird and squirrel friends to eat. She knew that they wouldn’t have stored enough food to survive such an early winter!

Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because an airport(机场)is usually far from the city. You must get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off(起飞)and it is often late. You can’t open the window. You can’t choose(选择)the food. Planes are fast, but it takes hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe(安全的). Railway stations(火车站)are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can take another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can go traveling at anytime when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
