Space is the final frontier (前沿). Sending rockets into space has become almost common. The demand for communications satellites and space-based image services is growing.

Today, space efforts cost about $200 billion a year. Joint efforts between governments and businesses are helping to lower costs and increase our understanding of the universe.

The business of space looks good for Orbital ATK, a company based in the United States. In January, the company launched its Antares rocket. The rocket was carrying the first of eight planned supply shipments to the International Space Station. Orbital ATK is one of the two American companies paid by NASA to transport supplies to the space station.

A company called Arianespace is a private European space business. Clayton Nowry heads the

American division of the company. He says the increase in rocket launches is partly the result of increased demand for space-based technologies. These include high-definition (高清的) broadcasts and satellite broadband services.

While there is more demand for satellites, the end of NASA's Space Shuttle program in 2011 has hurt the space industry. Janice Starzyk works at International Launch Services. She works on education issues at the Washington Space Business Roundtable. She said, "It's a pity that the program's shutdown was a huge, huge set of lay-offs (下岗人员) in the industry."

But even as NASA reduces its spending, other countries have announced plans to explore space. In December 2013, China became just the third country to land an unmanned space vehicle on the moon. A month later, India sent its first communications satellite.

8. What makes sending rockets into space become very usual?

A. More and more people wanting to explore space.

B. Space becoming human's final home and dream.

C. Companies making every effort to earn $ 200 billion a year.

D. Increasing need for communications satellites and space-based image services.

9. Why are governments and businesses working together?

A. To earn more money from space projects.

B. To send more rockets into space and use them.

C. To produce more communications satellites for the public.

D. To keep costs down and help us learn more about the universe.

10. What do we know about Orbital ATK?

A. It's a private European space business.

B. It sent its Antares rocket in January.

C. It's a company based in the United Kingdom.

D. It's the only American company paid by NASA.

11. How may Janice Starzyk feel about the program's shutdown?

A. Hopeful.

B. Content.

C. Regretful.

D. Uninterested.

【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. C

【解析】

【9题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Joint efforts between governments and businesses are helping to lower costs and increase our understanding of the universe.”可知，政商合作，共同努力，正助力太空探索降低成本费用，同时提高（我们人类）对于宇宙的认识理解，故选D。

【10题详解】

细节理解题。第三段整段为对该公司的介绍，根据第三段中的“In January, the company launched its Antares rocket.”可知其在一月份发射了Antares火箭，B项时间和内容均与原文契合，故选B。

推理判断题。本题要求判断观点态度，根据倒数第二段中的“She said, it’s a pity that the program’s shutdown was a hu ge, huge set of lay-offs in the industry.”可知她认为项目的终止对于航天工业来说是一个遗憾，而且导致了这一行业一系列的下岗潮，句中的关键词为pity （遗憾），对应题目C选项regretful（遗憾的，惋惜的），故选C。

There have been numerous wake-up calls about the effects of climate change on sea life. As ocean waters heat up, they are making coral lose color. Growing levels of carbon dioxide are making seawater more acidic. Now climate change is starting to affect fish's sense of smell, a phenomenon that will worsen in the coming years if global warming continues growing.

A sense of smell is what the fish can't do without. They use it to find food, detect upcoming danger, escape from predators (捕食者）find safe environments, and even recognize one another. "Future levels of carbon dioxide can have large negative effects on the sense of smell of fish, which can affect fish population numbers and the entire ecosystem, ”said an ocean life expert. "This can be prevented, but we must reduce carbon emissions now before it's too late.”

Experts believe that about half of carbon dioxide emissions produced by human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels--have over time ended up in the oceans, lowering the pH of seawater, and making it more acidic.

Researchers found that sea bass (鲈鱼）exposed to the more acidic conditions swam less and were less likely to react when encountering the smell of a predator. Also, they were more likely to "freeze", a sign of anxiety, according to the study. They found the longer the fish were in high

CO2,the worse they got along. The researchers also measured the ability of the fish to detect certain odors (气味）in different levels of acidity (酸度）。The study showed that their ability to detect and respond to some odors connected with food and threatening situations was more strongly affected than other odors.

The research is important because 20 percent of the protein consumed by 3 million people comes from seafood, and about 50 percent of this comes from fish caught from the wild. “Therefore, increases in carbon dioxide in the ocean have the potential to affect all fish species, including those that many people rely on food and livelihood, "the ocean life expert warned.

12. What do we know from the first paragraph?

A. Global warming will continue in the coming years.

B. Global warming is starting to affect fish's sense of smell.

C. The temperature of seawater is rising to a dangerous level.

D. Few people are worried about the impact of climate change.

13. Why does the author attach great importance to the sense of smell of fish?

A. It can affect the survival of fish.

B. Fish can stay safe with their sense of smell.

C. Fish rely on their sense of smell to find food.

D. Fish can find each other by their sharp noses.

14. Why does the author mention human activities in the text?

A. He wants to blame human beings for global warming.

B. He wants to criticize human beings for overuse of fossil fuels.

C. He concludes that human activities can destroy the sense of smell of fish.

D. He concludes that human activities can improve the ecosystem of the ocean.

15. What is the author's attitude toward the future of fish industry?

A. Satisfied.

B. Enthusiastic.

C. Disappointed.

D. Concerned.

【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人类活动对于海洋鱼类的影响。

【12题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Now climate change is starting to affect fish's sense of smell, a phenomenon that will worsen in the coming years if global warming continues growing.（现在，气候变化开始影响鱼类的嗅觉，如果全球变暖继续加剧，这种现象将在未来几年恶化。）”可知，全球气候变暖已经对鱼类的嗅觉产生了影响。故选B项。

【13题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Future levels of carbon dioxide can have large negative effects on the sense of smell of fish, which can affect fish population numbers and the entire ecosystem（未来的二氧化碳水平会对鱼的嗅觉产生巨大的负面影响，这可能会影响鱼的数量和整个生态系统）”可知，鱼的嗅觉和鱼的数量有直接关系，也就是会影响鱼的生存，故选A项。

【14题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“This can be prevented, but we must reduce carbon emissions now before it's too late.（这是可以避免的，但我们必须现在就减少碳排放，以免为时过晚。）”可知，我们可以通过减少碳排放的途径来减少对鱼类嗅觉的负面影响，再根据第三段中的“…about half of carbon dioxide emissions produced by human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels-have over time ended up in the oceans, lowing the pH of seawater, and making it more acidic（人类活动产生的二氧化碳排放，如燃烧化石燃料，随着时间的推移，约有一半进入了海洋，降低了海水的pH值，使其酸性增强。）”可知，被排放到海洋中的二氧化碳大部分都是由于人类活动产生的。可见，踢到人类活动是为了证明人类的活动影响了鱼类的嗅觉。故选C项。

【15题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段中“increases in carbon dioxide in the ocean have the potential to affect all fish species, including those that many people rely on food and livelihood（海洋中二氧化碳含量的增加有可能影响所有鱼类，包括那些许多人赖以为生的鱼类）”可知，作者对于未来渔业的发展持担忧态度，故选D项。
