For example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite. Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving. Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls. Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programs come to us through satellites. Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location. We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another. They are usually 35,880 kilometers above the equator. Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place. This is because it is moving around the world at 11,000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates. A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae (天线) facing the Earth. Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit, so there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position. This usually happens about every five or six days. Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth. A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years. Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired. Often, very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time. This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power (核动力) and they can crash into each other. [共5题] (1) Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage? (A) Sending information for weather forecasts. (B) Taking photographs of the Earth. (C) Sending TV pictures.

(B) They will be left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time. (C) They will be brought back to Earth to be repaired.

Experienced riders who are not too large and fancy taking part in some of the festive season’s most famous race meetings could be in for an unexpected surprise. This year’s national hunt racing season could be overshadowed because the sport’s shortest athletes are facing a shortage of a different kind. The number of national hunt jockeys (职业赛马骑师) has fallen from 123 in 1995 to 70—but the number of meetings has increased. Now officials are issuing a plea to any keen riders to apply to the Jockey Club, racing’s governing body (理事会), for a license to take part in some of the country’s leading meetings. While meetings are unlikely to be abandoned, some races might only involve three horses. Racing officials fear that jockeys might not be able to get to all of the meetings in time, particularly on Boxing Day, when there will be nine, and on New Year’s Day, when there will be six. National hunt racing is open to professional and amateur (业余的) jockeys. Those who think they have the relevant credentials (证明书) need to have extensive riding experience, weigh under 10 stone (63 kg) and stand at around 5 ft 8 in (173cm). Once the Jockey Club has approved the license the riders are free to take part in any national hunt race and pit (使竞争) their wits against the likes of Tony McCoy. Racing officials believe that the shortage has cone about because Britons are getting bigger and there are fewer people who meet the sport’s height and weight requirements. A spokesman for the Jockey Club said: “There are fewer jockeys who are getting a greater number of rides but at least that means they are able to earn a good living.” He added: “We are keeping an eye on the situation. Any sport thrives on new blood and young talent coming through.” It is not a case of horse racing being less fashionable but being a jockey is a very demanding lifestyle, particularly in terms of truing to keep your weight down. People are now heavier and bigger and maybe some just find it too hard to be a jockey. [共5题] (1) What does the underlined word “overshadow” in paragraph 3 mean? (A) To make the racing field cool. (B) To face a shortage of horse racing athletes. (C) To make the national hunt racing less enjoyable by making people feel worried. (D) To be taller than the athletes. 你选择的答案: C [正确] 正确答案:C (2) According to the passage, who may get a license from the Jockey Club? (A) Tony—168cm—61kg (B) Joe—178cm—63kg (C) Lee—169cm—64kg (D) Michael—172cm—62kg 你选择的答案: D [正确] 正确答案:D (3) What's Tony McCoy? (A) A kink of horse which is hard to control. (B) A very famous jockey in history. (C) The manager of the Jockey Club who is not kind to the rider. (D) A Jockey Club. 你选择的答案: B [正确] 正确答案:B (4) Which of the following statements is TRUE? (A) Horse racing is now not as fashionable as before. (B) The number of national hunt jockeys has fallen as well as the meetings. (C) The jockeys may not be able to get to all of the meetings in time because there may be many meetings at the same time. (D) It is necessary to have a license and pay a little money to take part in all of the country's leading meetings. 你选择的答案: C [正确] 正确答案:C (5) What does the writer want to tell us? (A) This year’s national hunt racing season could be overshadowed. (B) People are getting heavier and bigger. (C) The riders are expected to apply to the Jockey Club. (D) People should pay more attention to their weight so as to make it easier to be a jockey. 你选择的答案: A [正确] 正确答案:A 参考答案: [第一单元]; 第5小题:A 主旨题。通观全文都在谈论今年赛马比赛所面临的问题及其原因,因此选A。 46.
