We've seen aliens in a vast variety of Hollywood films, but which is closer to the truth? As our understanding of the universe grows, scientists are beginning to think what these aliens might look like.

    Opinions can be certainly different, but scientists are forming their opinions on the basis of environment and biology rather than science novels. Does that mean we're closer to the answer? Of course not! Read the information below to see the different forms of life scientists are predicting (预言).

    Dr Maggie thinks aliens may be jellyfish (水母). She bases this on how life began in the ocean here on Earth and draws the conclusion that creatures in the ocean could interact (相互作用) with water. Some scientists think aliens may be bugs. Cockroaches (蟑螂) are among our planet's strongest creatures thanks to their thick exoskeleton (外骨骼), and they are able to survive in different conditions. This makes a bug-style life form. Simon, a scientist working at Cambridge University, thinks that aliens would be "just like humans," not only in appearance and biology but also in weaknesses.

     Have you got any ideas about what aliens might look like?

(  ) 31. People have seen aliens from_______ according to the passage.

A. TVs               B. Films        C. cartoons  D. magazines

    A. environment and novels    B. biology and novels

    C. environment and biology   D. environment, biology and novels

(  ) 33. How many kinds of aliens are described in the passage?

A. Three    B. Two.  C. One.   D. Four.

(  ) 34. Which of the following creatures may come from the sea?

    A. Cockroaches.    B. Creatures like humans.

    C. Bugs.           D. Jellyfish.

(  ) 35. The passage tells us ________.

    A. when aliens come to Earth    B. what aliens may look like

    C. how aliens look like humans  D. where people can find aliens

IV．情景对话。（每小题1分，共5分）

从方框中的六个选项中选出五个合适的句子补全对话。

阅读训练营Reading comprehension

A

Do you find it hard to remember words? Perhaps you think writing stories or drawing pictures is difficult. Well, try to paint your room a different color. It may help!

  Scientists have discovered that colors influence minds. People did tests with either red or blue computer screens. One group of the test-takers used red screens and were found later to score higher on memory tests while the other group used blue screens and were found to be more creative.

    It sounds strange, but it surely makes sense(讲得通). What are some common red signs? Think about fire trucks, stop signs, and your teacher's red pen. These things make us alert to danger or mistakes, so we pay attention to and remember them. Blue things, like a peaceful blue sky or a sea view, calm us. When we are relaxed, our imagination wakes up and helps us be more creative.

   It's time to put away your yellow highlighter (萤光笔). Use a red pen when you need to remember facts and details. Switch to a blue pen when you need to create new ideas. If you follow this piece of advice, you may pass your next test with flying colors!

China is a big country with lots of rivers and lakes, so you can't imagine that we won't have enough water to drink in the future.

    With the fast development of industries, water pollution is becoming more and more serious and is affecting our lives. It's reported that most of the industrial waste water and household sewage in China are poured into rivers and lakes without being treated. A study by China Environmental Protection Agency in February 2010 said that water pollution levels were double what the government predicted them to be mainly because agricultural (农业的) waste was ignored. In the summer of 2011, Chinese government reported 43 percent of state-monitored (国家监控的) rivers were so badly polluted that they were unsuitable for human use. Water pollution is more serious in northern China than that in southern China. The percentage of water considered unfit for human consumption (消耗) is 45 percent in northern China, compared to 10 percent in southern China.

   We must do something to protect our water resource. Otherwise, our tears will be the last  drop of water in the world.
