It is interesting how NASA(美國航空航天管理局)chose their astronauts for landing them on the moon. They chose men 26 the age of twenty and thirty-five. There were about fifty of them, Many were 27 air pilots. 28 were scientists with two or three degrees. NASA telephoned each man they were going to choose; told him the plans and the 29 they might get in. They then asked him if he was willing to be trained as an astronaut. “How could any man 30 such an exciting job?” One of them said, “Dangerous? Of course. It’s dangerous 31 most exciting”
The health and physical condition of 32 was, of course, very necessary. 33 those in very good health and physical condition were chosen.
While being trained to be astronauts. They went through many 34 . They studied the star and the moon, and they also studied geology, the science of rocks. This was necessary 35 astronauts would have to look for rocks on the moon. They would try to find rocks which might help to tell the 36 of the moon. They were all 37 to fly in helicopters （直升飛機）。These helicopters landed 38 down to give them some experience of the way the spaceship would 39 land on the moon , They were also taught the 40 facts about the conditions in space. They learnt all the technical details of the spaceships and rockets. They visited the scientists and engineers who 41 them. They visited the factories where they were 42. They learnt how every 43 of a space-ship and its instruments work. They also learnt every detail of ground-control 44 .
In a word, to be chosen as an astronaut. One must be in good health, 45 in science and good at piloting.

解析試題分析：
【小題1】句意“在26歲和35歲之間進行篩選”，故between...and容易誤選為at。At the age of...在某人多少歲時。
【小題2】句意為：他們是有經(jīng)驗的，老練的。在這里old不是歲數(shù)的意思比experienced 更貼切。
【小題3】上文中的many相對應(yīng)。句意為：其他人是擁有的兩個或三個學(xué)位的科學(xué)家。
【小題4】因為是航天可能會深陷于危險之中，同用in danger.
【小題5】根據(jù)下文人們都很珍惜這次被選中的機會，在興奮和危險之間，他們都敢于冒險，不會拒絕這份冒險的工作。注意此處用了一個疑問句。accept 主觀接受receive 客觀接受offer主動提供
【小題6】But, 但是，他們更看重后者。根據(jù)上文“任何人都不會拒絕這份令人激動的工作”可知。
【小題7】被選中的飛行員的身體健康狀況非常重要。根據(jù)上下文多次提及Pilot可知。
【小題8】只有身體條件符合的才能被選中。最后一段One must be in good health可知。
【小題9】根據(jù)下文They studied the star and the moon, and they also studied geology, the science of rocks.學(xué)習(xí)天體，地理等可知，必須學(xué)習(xí)很多相關(guān)的課程。Ways 方面，欠具體。
【小題10】前后句構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系，學(xué)習(xí)巖石科學(xué)知識很必要，因為宇航員在月球上必須尋找?guī)r石。for表補充說明的原因; since表顯而易見的原因，“既然”。
【小題11】根據(jù)巖石構(gòu)成以辨別月球的年代。Background背景
【小題12】飛行員們也在特殊直升機上進行模擬訓(xùn)練。Train 訓(xùn)練 show展示
【小題13】直升機的垂直下降為月球上的真實著陸提供了經(jīng)驗。 straight 徑直的，徑直地，形容詞副詞directly 直接地，副詞
【小題14】Really，真實情況。possibly 可能主語為物 likely很可能主語可以是人或物 actually 實際上
【小題15】他們也會被教授一些太空中的已經(jīng)知道的事實。Well-known 著名的 unknown 不為人所知的
【小題16】他們拜訪設(shè)計太空飛船和火箭的科學(xué)家。Them指的是the technical details of the spaceships and rockets，當然是科學(xué)家設(shè)計的。draw 畫的 produce產(chǎn)生 make制作
【小題17】他們也拜訪生產(chǎn)飛船和火箭的工廠。
【小題18】他可以了解太空船和其設(shè)備的每個部件是如何運行的。
【小題19】他們也要學(xué)習(xí)基本操作系統(tǒng)的每個細節(jié)。
【小題20】一個宇航員必須身體健康，精通航天科學(xué)，并且擅長飛行技術(shù)。well-done干得好的 well-fed 營養(yǎng)充足的 well- kept 保存完好的 well-informed熟悉的，博學(xué)多
考點：本文是一篇說明文。
點評：本文是一篇說明文，講述了美國航天員的篩選過程和具體細節(jié)。難度中等。本文在命題上注重上下文的內(nèi)在聯(lián)系，重點考察了上下文邏輯，詞義辨析，包括名詞（6個），形容詞（4個）和連詞（3個），介詞，代詞，副詞（2個），動詞（4個）在語境中的具體區(qū)別。在解題過程中要抓住文章的結(jié)尾這一主題句，就容易理順思路，圍繞三個方面in good health, well-informed in science and good at piloting展開。這就告訴我們在做完形時，一定不要急于求成，要遵循：一看標題，二看句首，三看句尾的好習(xí)慣，真正把握文章主旨后，再順藤摸瓜就容易做對了。

If you travel around the world , you will be surprised to find just how different the foreign customs can be from your own .
A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table . The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself . Also in India , you might see a man apparently shaking his head at another and assume that he is disagreeing . But in many parts of India a shake of the head is a gesture that shows agreement of acceptance .
Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty . In that country you shake your head to indicate “yes” —a nod indicates “no”. The Arabs are known for their hospitality . At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula , you will find that any drinking vessel （容器，器皿）is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drink it up .
In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting talking to someone , even at an important meeting . Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand , however , could cause offence . It is too informal an attitude for such an occasion . Also when in Thailand you are not supposed to touch the head of an adult —it’s just not done . In Japan , it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home . In Europe such attitudes are disappearing .
Customs vary from country to country . Visitors may be at a loss as to what to do in a foreign environment . In such circumstances , the golden rule to follow is : When in Rome , do as the Romans do .

One topic is rarely mentioned in all the talk of improving standards in our schools: the almost complete failure of foreign-language teaching. As a French graduate who has taught for more than twenty-five years, I believe I have some idea of why the failure is so total. 21 the faults already found out in the education system as a whole — such as child-centred learning, the “discovery” method, and the low expectations by teachers of pupils — there have been several serious 22 which have a direct effect on language teaching.
The first is the removal from the curriculum (課程) of the thorough teaching of English 23 . Pupils now do not know a verb from a noun, the subject of a sentence from its object, or the difference between the past, present, or future.
Another important error is mixed-ability teaching, or teaching in ability groups so 24 that the most able groups are 25 and are bored while the least able are lost and 26 bored. Strangely enough, few head teachers seem to be in favour of mixed-ability school football teams.
Progress depends on memory, and pupils start to forget immediately they stop having 27 lessons. This is why many people who attended French lessons at school, even those who got good grades, have 28 it a few years later. Because they never need it, they do not practice it.
Most American schools have accepted what is inevitable and 29 modern languages, even Spanish, from the curriculum. Perhaps it is time for Britain to do the same, and stop 30 resources on a subject which few pupils want or need.
21. A. Due to B. In addition to C. Instead of D. In spite of
22. A. errors B. situations C. systems D. methods
23. A. vocabulary B. culture C. grammar D. literature
24. A. wide B. similar C. separate D. unique
25. A. kept out B. turned down C. held back D. left behind
26. A. surprisingly B. individually C. equally D. hardly
27. A. extra B. traditional C. basic D. regular
28. A. needed B. forgotten C. practised D. left
29. A. restored B. absorbed C. prohibited D. withdrawn
30. A. wasting B. focusing C. exploiting D. sharing
