In 1901, H.G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers(探险者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon

was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met. In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise. “Why,”they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?”H.G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.

Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The “channel”, a tunnel(隧道) connecting England and France, is now complete.

But what about underground cities? Japan's Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities”.The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome(太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.

Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth's space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H.G. Wells' “moon people” would agree. Would you?

1.The explorers in H.G. Wells' story were surprised to find that the “moon people”  ________.

A.knew so much about the earth 

B.understood their language

C.lived in so many underground cities

A.Discovering the moon's inner space.

C.Meeting the “moon people” again.

D.Travelling to outer space. 

3.What sort of underground systems are already here with us?

B.Space Travel with H.G. Wells

C.Enjoy Living Underground

D.Building Down, Not Up 

1----4    CBBD      


解析:

1.这是一道细节题。第一段中第二、三两句告诉我们,探险者吃惊的原因是他们在月球上发现了许多地下城市。答案为C。 

2.这是一道所指题。在第二段中,作者讲述了在1969年人们登上了月球,知道在月球上没有地下城市,但是,人们对“月球人”所提出的问题仍然感兴趣。“月球人”提出的问题是“Why are you traveling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?”所以,it指代Using the earth's inner space。答案为B。 

3.这是一道细节题。由第三段我们可以看出,现在在地球上有tunnels, car parks和shopping areas。答案为B。 

4.这是一道标题选择题。这篇短文提出了一个充分利用地下空间的问题。虽然我们在地球的地表以下建造了一些隧道、汽车停车场和地下商店,但是,我们并没有充分利用地下空间。Building Down, Not Up可以很好的表达作者写作目的,唤起人们对向地下发展的注意。答案为D。
