But actually exploring Mars is no longer an experience confined (仅限于) to NASA scientists. You can be a Mars explorer and do your own research. How? Just log on the “Be a Martian“ website. (http://BeAMartian.jpl.nasa.gov.) The website is the work of NASA and Microsoft. Members of the public help scientists to understand Mars by looking through hundreds of thousands of photos sent back by Mars orbiters (卫星). There are two major activities –counting craters (陨石坑) and mapping Mars. For counting craters, you just place markers (记号) on any craters that you see in a picture. In the past, counting Martian craters had been a challenge for scientists because of the vast numbers involved. But counting craters in small regions on the Martian surface will help scientists understand the relative age of these places. The more craters, the older an area is likely to be. For the Mars mapping activity, you have to match three small, but high-resolution (分辨率) images onto the background of a larger, much lower resolution image. By mapping the surface, you will help scientists explain the changing conditions of Mars. After you have completed a task, you will get game points and badges (徽章) for a robot animal you choose. On the website, there is also a forum (论坛) where you can ask questions, vote on questions and make comments to earn points. NASA Mars experts will read the questions to see what is interesting the public, and will host town hall-type meetings to answer them. By launching the website, NASA hopes to interest students in space careers and to make real progress in Martian research. “We really need the next generation of explorers,” Michelle Viotti, who oversees (监控) Mars missions at NASA told reporters. “And we’re also accomplishing something important for NASA. There’s so much data coming back from Mars. Having a wider crowd look at the data, classify it and help understand its meaning is very important.” Title: 1. ________ on the website [img] C (福建卷)短文填词:阅读下面短文,根据以下提示:1)汉语提示,2)首字母提示,3)语境提示,在每个空格内填入一个适当的英语单词,并将该词完整地写在右边相对应的横线上。所填单词要求意义准确,拼写正确。 The key to a football team’s success could lie simply in the c__1___ of the players’ jersey (运动衫), British researchers say. A study ____2_ (涉及) almost 60 years of results found that clubs with red shirts won m__3___ matches. Researchers suggest that the color red boosts players’ ___4__ (信心) and makes __5___ opponents nervous. Another explanation is that red shirts are easier to see. That i__6___ the accuracy of passes.

If true, the ___8__ (理论) could help explain the legendary success of Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal, all of ___9__ play in red kit during home matches. However, there are some e___10__: five-time World Cup winner Brazil plays in yellow. D (上海卷)Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need. A. Be careful with humor. B. Appearance counts. C. Use the name of a new acquaintance frequently. D. You'll make a terrific first impression when you demonstrate good listening skills. E. An individual's speaking style impacts the first impression, maybe more than we wish. F. Demonstrate that the other person, not you, is the center of action and conversation. Below are some tips to help you make a positive first impression. 1. Illustrate that the spotlight is on you only, and you’ll miss opportunities for friendships, jobs, love relationships, networking, and sales. Show that you are other-centered, and first-time acquaintances will be eager to see you again. 2. Give positive verbal cues: “Hmmm... interesting!” “Tell me more, please.” “What did you do next?” Just as actors benefit from prompts, your conversational partner will welcome your assistance in keeping the exchange going. Nonverbally, you show you’re a skilled listener by maintaining steady eye contact. Remember how you respond to the social gadabout who appears to be looking over your shoulder for the next person he wants to corner. Remember, and avoid that habit. 3. “Judy, I like that suggestion.” “Your vacation must have been exciting, Fred.” You show that you have paid attention from the start, catching the name during the introduction. Equally as important, you’ll make conversations more personal by including the listener’s name several times. 4. Although a quip or two might serve as an icebreaker, stay away from sarcastic remarks that could backfire. Because you don’t know a stranger’s sensitivities, prolonged joking might establish barriers you can’t overcome, either now or later. 5. Listeners judge our intelligence, our cultural level, our education, even our leadership ability by the words we select – and by how we say them. Rather than mumble, speak aloud and clearly so you’re easily heard. Alter your pitch, to avoid the dullness of a monotone. Display animation in both voice and facial expression. Gesture naturally, without “canning” your movements. E (海南、宁夏、北京卷)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。 Most people have dropped items of food such as cookies on the floor and still wanted to eat them. 1 This so-called rule says food is still OK to eat as long as you pick it up from the floor in less than 5 seconds. American scientists recently tested the rule and said that it’s not necessarily true. Bacteria can attach itself to your food even if you pick it up super-fast. 2 It’s possible. Here are the facts: A clean-looking floor isn’t necessarily clean. A floor that looks dirty is usually worse, but even floors that look clean may have bacteria on them. Why? Some germs can survive on the floor for a long time. Unless you have a powerful microscope, you can’t check to see how many germs are there. 3 A piece of food will pick up more bacteria the longer time it spends on the floor. So food left there for 5 seconds or less will probably collect fewer bacteria than food sitting on the floor for a longer time. 4 Bacteria can attach itself to your food as soon as it hits the floor. Foods with wet surfaces, like an apple slice, can pick up bacteria easily. Some bacteria are not harmful. But others can cause stomachaches. So what are you to do with that delicious piece of food that just slipped from your grip (掌握)? 5 A. Faster is better. B. Fast may not be fast enough. C. Do you really think the five-second rule is okay? D. The safest choice is to throw it out. E. Maybe you have heard of the ?-second rule? F. That's why you shouldn't eat food that has hit the floor. G. But does dropped food contain enough bacteria to make you sick? F (天津卷)阅读表达:阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 From the time he was a kid, Steve Jobs, the Apple CEO, thought his products could change the world. Today Jobs and Apple are certainly a great success. He has become a model for many adults, and teenagers as well. Jobs has been voted the most admired businessman by young people in a survey in the US recently. They believe he has “made the world a better place”. Jobs, now 54, really made the world better through his products. Soon after he set up Apple in 1976 with high school friend Steve Wozniak, the Apple II became the first personal computer to succeed. Before this time, computers had only been available to a few. With the Apple II computers could be found in classrooms and offices. In 2001, Apple produced its iPod music player and iTunes online store. An iPod has been a widely sought-after gadget (小器具) worldwide for nearly 10 years now. Many young people think of it as a vogue icon (时尚标志). Apple’s Pixar Animation Studios was the first to show that computer animation could be used to tell stories. In 1986, Jobs bought Pixar, turning it into a company to rival Disney. In 1995, Pixar made the world’s first animation made wholly by computers, Toy Story, which became a hit. The Walt Disney Company bought Pixar in 2006, and Jobs became Disney’s biggest individual shareholder. Jobs’ road to success has not been a smooth one. In 1985, he had to leave Apple, which he founded, after losing a battle over control with CEO John Sculley. He said he felt very depressed, but that something slowly began to come to him – he still loved what he did. In 1996, Jobs returned to Apple. In 2004, Jobs got cancer. The doctors told him he should expect to live no longer than three to six months. But in the end, his cancer proved curable. Having lived through it, Jobs told Stanford graduates in a speech in 2005 not to waste time. While Jobs is a powerful leader, some old employees have described him as a strange, ill-tempered man. They say he is impatient with those who disagree with him or do not understand his ideas. 1. List three products through which Steve Jobs and his company have changed aspects of life. (No more than 15 words) ①__________________ ②__________________ ③__________________ 2. Why did Jobs leave Apple in 1985? (No more than 12 words) _________________________________________ 3.
