【答案与解析】这是3篇新闻报道。
第1篇是关于英国皇太后死亡的消息;
第2篇是关于中国发射神舟三号无人飞船的消息;
第3篇是关于台湾发生7.5级强烈地震的消息。
1.C。
判断题。
皇太后死的时候有其女儿伊利莎白皇后在身边,排除A项;
皇太后没有从政,排除B项;
皇太后是在睡觉的时候死去的,D项也排除。
所以答案选C。
2.D。
从第3段的几个关键词safely…successful可知A项错误;
B项内容在文中没有提及,可排除;
而神舟三号为无人飞船,故不会有科学家在太空中做实验,可排除C;
既然神舟三号无人飞船已安全着陆,那肯定是已成功发射了。
3.C。
主旨题。
既然台湾发生了地震,那当然是没有预料到的灾害。
A、B、D三项内容离题太远。

【答案与解析】绘制人类基因组图,这将意味着人类消灭癌症、艾滋病的危害,延长人类寿命将成为现实。
1.B。
语义理解题。
从文章最后一段第1句话Oncethesegenesarefoundandstudied,researcherscandevelopnewwaystoattackinfections(传染),andgeneticdiseases可以看出科学家们完成人类基因组图的目的。
2.C。
细节题。
因为…theleadingorganizationforgeneticresearchisintheUnitedStates,所以答案选C。
3.D。
美国是在1990年,即20世纪末开始绘制人类基因组图的,所以选项D不对。
4.B。
从文章内容可知,人类基因组图的完成将有助于科学家们攻克一系列难关。
所以,他们在更努力地探究。
5.A。
综合文章内容,不难概括出本文主旨:
解读基因密码。

【答案解析】本文讲述了美国航天飞机“哥伦比亚”号失事的情况。
词义推测题。
可以参见第三段第二句中的inthedecenttoEarth,其后orlanding即是对descent解释。
2.A。
从…whichincludedthefirstIsraelitoflyontheshuttle,formercombatpilotCol.IlanRamon中可以知道,IlanRamon.是以色列第一位乘坐航天飞机的宇航员。
3.A。
推断题。
要求你找出这两起灾难的共同点。
从文中可以了解到两起灾难都有7位宇航员丧生。
“挑战者”号是在升空时失事的,而“哥伦比亚”号是在返回地面的过程中失事的,故可排除B和C。
而选项D与原文不符,故选A。
4.A。
根据…America'
sspaceprogramwillgoon我们可以知道选项A明显错误。
而选项B、C、D均与原文相符。
