第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The London Eye, which is 443 feet in height above the Thames River, is the world's biggest spinning structure. It is one hundred feet taller than Big Ben,and weighs 1600 tons. It was built to celebrate the year 2000. Maybe building such a big spinning structure suggested that people longed for bigger and better things in the future.
Why did people think of building the London Eye? In fact it was inspired by great structures of the past like the very first observation wheel built for the Chicago World Expo of 1893. It's twice the size of the wheel, but three times lighter, and much more comfortable. The London Eye is keeping natives and visitors entertained and awed(敬畏).
In the London Eye, there are 32 capsules. Each of the capsules can hold up to 25 people. And they’re air conditioned in summer, heated in winter. From these capsules the visitors can see the most beautiful views of London.
It was difficult to assemble(安装) and put a wheel of this size. And it required new technology and a lot of imagination. The parts of the London Eye were sent up the Thames River,and the wheel was assembled on temporary platforms on the river. Lifting it into an upright position was a major challenge. It took a week to winch(吊) it up to its final position.
Now the London Eye is regarded as a monument to new millennium. And many visitors from all over the world come to visit it. 21. How tall is Big Ben?
A. 443 feet. B. 340-350 feet. C. 550 feet. D. 250-260 feet 22. Why did London build the London Eye? A. To set a new record.
B. To celebrate the Queen's birthday. C. To celebrate the coming of 2000.
D. To beat the first observation wheel in Chicago. 23. From the text, we can learn that___________.

Move Earth --- it's no science fiction
Scientists have found an unusual way to prevent our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot. All you have to do is send a few comets in the direction of Earth, and its orbit will be changed. Our world will then be sent into a safer,colder part of the solar system.
This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) engineers and American astronomers. They say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planet- effectively doubling its working life.
The plan put forward by Dr. Laughlin, and his colleagues Don Korycansky and Fred Adams, needs carefully directing a comet or asteroid(小行星) so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational energy to Earth.
“Earth's orbital speed would increase as a result and we would move to a higher orbit away from the Sun,\
Engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to Jupiter or Saturn. The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. Later its orbit would bring it back to Earth, and the process would be repeated.
In the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to global warming, although the team was actually concerned with a much greater danger. The Sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so “seriously compromise” our biosphere(生物圈)---- by cooking us.
That's why the group decided to try to save Earth.
The plan has one or two worrying aspects, though. For a start, space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth. The smallest miscalculation in orbit could fire it straight at Earth----- with deadly consequences.
There is also the question of the Moon. As the current issue of scientific American magazine points out, if Earth was pushed out of its current position, it is most likely
