13、had appeared in the years 1531,1607，and 1682 all had the same orbit.Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart.This seemed very strange to Halley.The different comets followed the same orbit.The more Halley thought about it，the more he thought that there had not been three different comets，
14、as people thought.He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times.The comet had gone away and had come back again.It was an astonishing idea！Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction(预言) of what comet would happen in the future.He decided that this comet would appear in the yea

19、d7.Unlike8.oxygen9.globe10.atmosphere.1.B就像我们在看一个铺瓦的房顶时，总是会盯住缺少(missing)一片瓦的那块地方。 根据第二段第二句话中“what your missing tile is.”也可知此处应选missing。2A一旦断定(determined)你所缺失的是哪一片瓦。predict“预言”；assume“假设”；imagine“想象”。故选A项。3D想一想获得它是否真的(really)会令你幸福。4A然后你有三种选择：找到丢了的那块；用另一块不同的瓦片(tile)来代替5Cfocus on表示“集中(注意力、精力等)于”；go on表
20、示“继续”；put on表示“上演，穿上，戴上”；rely on表示“依赖”。6D我们都认识这样一些人，他们过着相对轻松的(easy)生活，但并不幸福。7A第一个秘诀(secret)是感激。下段The second secret is.为答案提示。8C我们往往认为，不幸福会导致人牢骚满腹(complain)，而事实是，抱怨令人感到不幸福。下文but its truer to say that complaining leads to people becoming unhappy为答案提示。9B第二个秘诀就是要意识到(realize)幸福是其他事物的副产品。10A它最显而易见的源泉(sourc
21、es)就是那些给我们的生活以目标的追求。11C我们拥有的激情越多，我们就越有可能(likely)经历更多的幸福。 sb.be likely to do sth.“某人可能做某事”。12D最后，如果你信仰有某种永恒的东西可以超越我们，而且我们的存在(existence)更具有超凡的意义，你就会更幸福。13B不管你的人生哲学是什么，它应该包含(include)这样一个真理。14C如果你在所有的情况下都选择寻找事情积极的(positive)一面，你就会幸福，如果你选择寻找糟糕的一面，那你将厄运缠身。15D就幸福本身而言，它很大程度上(largely)取决于你自身的决定。absolutely“绝对地”
22、；totally“完全地”；exactly“准确地”。故D项符合语境。.1.B综合判断题。根据文章的第四段“He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times.”及上文提到的看彗星的时间分别是1531年，1607年，1682年可判断正确答案为B。2C细节理解题。由文中第三段得知。3B计算题。文中的“He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758.There were 53 years to go before Halleys prediction cou
23、ld be tested.”这句话告诉我们：他预言彗星出现的时间是1758年，而这个预言还要经过53年才能验证，由此可以推断出哈雷做出这个预言的时间是1705年。4D主旨大意题。纵观全文，不难看出，文章的中心就是哈雷以及他的发现。5C综合判断题。从文章首句可以看出A项错误；从第二题的分析中可知B项也错误；牛顿告诉哈雷彗星的轨道是椭圆形的，可排除D。.1.There existed huge animals on the earth a long time ago.2Now it is her turn to give us a performance.3.No one knows when the custom came into existence.4.He speaks English so clearly that he can always make himself understood.5.He made it clear that it is necessary to have the meeting.- 7 - 版权所有高考资源网
