34、ht (干旱) and most families，including Williams，couldnt grow enough food.Because of the drought，Williams family couldnt afford to send him to school anymore.So one day，William went to the library near his home to study.He found a science book called Using Energy，which included instructions for building
35、 a windmill (风车)Windmills are good sources of electricity，and they can bring water up from underground.William didnt know much English，and he wasnt able to understand most of the book，but it was full of pictures Looking at the pictures，William thought he could build a windmill for his family.When Wi
36、lliam started building his windmill，a lot of people laughed at him，including his mother.But William saw the photo of the windmill in the book.That meant someone else was able to build it，so he knew he could build it，too.He didnt have the parts and equipment that he saw in the books pictures.So he lo

44、To start with，if wed want to be living on it，we should find a good place in space to put the new planet.Wed want it to be in a habitable zone，meaning the planet should be at the right distance from its star to make sure there would be perfect temperatures and most importantly，liquid (液态的) water.Wed

46、 a new planet like Earth could have many troubles.It might be something more like a huge space station.It would be pretty expensive if we wanted it to be super big.We would probably also need a lot of food，since theres going to be many scientists and astronauts out in space working on this project!A
47、ccording to NASA，each astronaut uses about 0.83 kilograms of food per meal，including 0.12 kilograms of packaging (包装) material.Without the weight of the packaging material，wed need about 780 kilograms of food just to feed one astronaut for a year.Putting all these together could make it possible to

53、ery long time”可知，作者认为制造星球即使有一定的可能性，也不会在短期内实现。答案：DDHave you ever wondered how the earliest human beings kept track of time？Scientists believe，historically，humans have relied on the movement of the sun across the sky to track time.The ancient Egyptians built tall obelisks (方尖碑) that would cast shadows
54、 to help divide the day into sections.These obelisks worked in much the same way as sundials (日晷)，which were a popular means of timekeeping long ago.Of course，sundials didnt help much at night or on cloudy days.To help keep time when it wasnt sunny，ancient people also learned to track the movement o
55、f the planets and constellations (星座) after dark.Other devices were developed over time，including hourglasses and water clocks.These devices relied upon the time it would take a particular substance (物质)，such as sand or water，to move from one part of a container to another.Rather than clocks，though，
56、these devices were more like timers.How did people long ago set up a meeting at a certain time in the future？Some historians believe many people relied upon a technique as simple as pointing to an area of the sky.When the sun reached that point，that was when they would meet the next day.Of course，hu
57、mans，being the clever creatures we are，relied upon a variety of natural solutions to the problem of timekeeping.For example，many people simply trained their bodies to wake up at the first light of dawn.Others may have relied upon animals，such as roosters，as alarm clocks.If people had to be up before
58、 dawn，they might have relied upon the full bladder method.They could wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.语篇解读本文为说明文，话题是社会文化类。文章介绍了钟表问世之前人们记录时间的方式。32.
