33、pts most famous pyramid(金字塔). An international team led byKunihiro Morishima used muons(介子), the high-energy particles produced by cosmic rays,to explore inside Egypts Great Pyramid without moving a stone. By looking at the number of muons that passed through the rock and arrived at different locati
34、ons within the pyramid, Morishima and his team detected a new large void(空腔) above the Grand Gallery that connects the King and Queens chamber. This new void which is at least 30 metres long is almost the same size of the Grand Gallery. The team used three different muon detectors, starting with nuc
35、lear emulsion film(核乳胶片). Like camera film(胶卷) is exposed to light to make a photo, the emulsion reacts to muons. Once their emulsion film showed a potential chamber, they confirmed it by placing a tool that gives out a flash of light. Outside the pyramid, they also used detectors that record muons
36、indirectly. After several months of recording muons, all three methods confirmed a void in the same location.“Its very likely that a new chamber will be discovered,” Morris says, noting that the long recording time increases the reliability of the result, although it will take drilling(打洞) and camer

Its completely unnecessary for Morishmas team to spend such a long time recording the number of muons.B. Its possible that Morish
41、mas team will discover a chamber in a pyramid based on the months of muons recording.C. Morishma shouldnt use drilling and cameras to confirm his discovery for the pyramid might collapse.D.He wants to help Morishma to stick a camera through a drill hole because he is quite enthusiastic about pyramid
42、s.35. Whats the best title for the passage?A.Cosmic rays may have revealed a chamber in Egypts Great PyramidB.Morishma, a pioneer in discovering Egypts pyramidsC.Egypt, home to mysterious pyramidsD.Scientists have found a new way to pass through rocks using muons第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中
