Visitors from space may have landed on our planet from time to time, maybe hundreds of times during the long, empty ages while Man was still a dream of the far future. Indeed, they could have landed on 90% of the earth as recently as two or three hundreds years ago, and we could never have heard of it. If one searches through old newspapers and records from some certain places, one can find many reports of strange events that could be some explanations about visiting from outer space. A writer, Charles Fort, has made a collection of UFO sightings in his book Lo! One is tempted(引诱) to believe them more than any modern reports, for the simple reason that they happened long before anyone had ever thought of space travel. Yet at the same time, one cannot take them too seriously, for before education on science was popular, even sightings of meteors(流星) and comets(彗星) made people believe the most unbelievable stories, as they still do today.

56.According to the passage, visitors from outer space may have landed on the earth       .

A. long before man had dreamed of it    B. long before there were human beings

C. in the last few hundred years        D. after the space travel began

57.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. Charles Fort sighted a lot of UFOs himself.  B. All sightings of UFOs are believable.

C. There may be living things on other planets.  D. People have seen visitors from other planets everywhere.

58.According to the passage,            .

A. UFOs are only seen in recent years   B. UFOs sightings are not new

C. UFOs are just meteors and comets     D. UFOs are invented by people

【小题1】B

【小题2】C

【小题3】B


解析:

【小题1】细节题。文章的第一句话说道: Man was still a dream of the far future.意思是说人类还没产生,还只是未来的一个梦想。

【小题2】细节推理题。通过排除,Charles Fort只是做了一个现象的收集;文章的最后一句话告诉我们也不要全信;文章中没有提到世界各地都看到了外星人。C选项是一个推测,是作者承认的。

【小题3】主旨推理。根据文章,作者还是承认了外星人来访的可能性,所以选B。

People in the UK often talk about their homes: their mortgages (按揭), the interest rates, and rising prices. Here’s a guide to some of the words and phrases you might come across.

          It’s a good idea in the UK to arrange a mortgage with a bank before you start looking. This is when the bank tells you how much money they will lend you so you have a good idea of how much you can afford.

          The next step is to go to an estate agent and see what sort of properties they have available in your budget range and in your area. If you see something you like, the estate agent will arrange for you to view the property, so that you can see the house or flat for yourself.

          If you see something that takes your eye, you put in an offer. The vendor (卖家) can accept or decline this offer, and if the vendor accepts it, you can move forward with the sale. However, as you don’t pay any money at this point, the offer isn’t legally binding (具有约束力), and in theory, you can pull out of the offer at any time that you like.

          Your next step will probably be to get a structural survey done. A qualified surveyor will inspect the house and write a report that illustrates any structural problems, like damp or drainage problems.

          If you still want to go ahead with the sale, you need to appoint a lawyer to do the legal paperwork.. If you already own a house, you might also be busy trying to sell it. Many house owners prefer to sell to first-time buyers (those people who don’t already own a home), as they are not in a chain (waiting for other people to buy the house before they can buy their next house).

          Finally, once the contracts are signed and exchanged, you complete on your house. You get the keys and you can move in whenever you want. Then you might want to throw a house-warming party. Congratulations!

1.Which of the following shows the right order of what happens before the people in the UK move into a new house?

a. ask for a company which represents others of properties

b. decide how much to borrow from the bank

c. examine the structure of the house

d. hire a lawyer and make a contract

e. offer the seller the right money

f. visit the house and discuss a price with the seller

A. b, a, f, d, c, e                                               B. b, a, f, c, d, e

C. b, a, f, e, d, c                                               D. b, f, d, e, c, a

2.According to the passage, these statements are correct EXCEPT ___________.

A. People can borrow the whole money for a new house from a bank.

B. People care for mortgages, interest rates and the prices &house.

C. The sellers are more interested in the first-time buyers.

D. After getting the keys, the owners sometimes have a party.

3.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. Owners.                                         B. Surveyors.

C. Lawyers.                                  D. Collectors.
