听力原文: When my interest shifted from space to the sea, I never expected it would cause
such confusion among my friends, yet I can understand their feelings. As I have been writing and talking about space flight for the best part of 20 years, a sudden switch of interest to the depth of the sea does seem peculiar. To explain, I'd like to share my reasons behind this unusual change of mind. The first excuse I give is an economic one. Underwater exploration is so much cheaper than space flight. The first round-trip ticket to the moon is going to cost at least 10 billion dollars if you include research and development. By the end of this century, the cost will be down to a few million. On the other hand, the diving suit and a set of basic tools needed for skin-diving can be bought for 20 dollars. My second argument is more philosophical. The ocean, surprisingly enough, has many things in common with space. In their different ways, both sea and space are equally hostile. If we wish to survive in either for any length of time, we need to have mechanical aids. The diving suit helped the design of the space suit. The feelings and the emotions of a man beneath the sea will be much like those of a man beyond the atmosphere.

How did the speaker's friends respond to his change of interest?

A.They wanted to follow his example.

B.They fully supported his undertaking.

C.They were puzzled by his decision.

D.They were afraid he wasn't fully prepared.

Oceanography has been defined as "The application of all sciences to the study of the sea.

Before the nineteenth century, scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between. Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings, but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work.

For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travellers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question "What is at the bottom of the oceans? had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was pro posed. The engineers had to know the depth profile(起伏形状) of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured.

It was to Maury of the US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853, for information on this matter. In the 1840s, Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings(测探) were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book the Physical Geography of the Sea.

The cable was laid, but not until 1866 was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the earl5* attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the sea.

Within a few years oceanography was under way, In 1872 Thomson led a scientific expedition(考察) ,which lasted for four years and brought home. thousands of samples from the sea. Their classification and analysis occupied scientists for years and led to a five-volume report, the last volume being published in 1895.

The proposal to lay a telegraph cable from Europe to America made oceanographic studies take on a(n) ______.

第7题

Greenwich is on the River Thames, five miles from the middle of London, and its story is 2
,000 years old. The first English people, the Saxons, were fishermen there, and they gave Greenwich its name "green village". Before came the Roman, you could still walk on the old Roman road in Greenwich Park. But the river was the true road to the outside world for the Romans, and for the English kings and queens who later live at Greenwich in their beautiful palaces.

The name of the earliest palace was Placentia. Its windows were made of glass--the first in England. Herry Va loved placentia. But Henry understood the future of his country, too: he knew that England must be strong at sea. So he started two big shipyards at Greenwich, and for 350 years the ships made there were the best in the world.

In 1649, a war started in England and for eleven years there was no king. When the war ended, Placentia was falling down. So King Charles 1I built a new and bigger palace, which is now the Royal (皇家的) Naval College and is open to the public.

At this time, Charles was worried about losing so many of his ships at sea: Their sailors didn't know how to tell exactly where they were. So in 1675 Charles made John Flamsteed the first Astronomer (天文台) Royal, to try to find the answer. Flamsteed worked in a new Observatory (天文台) on the high ground in Greenwich Park. With a telescope he made himself, Flamsteed could look all around the sky. And he did, night after night, for twenty years. Carrying on Fiamsteed's work a hundred years later, an astronomer called Harrison (1693 - 1776) finally made a clock which told the time at sea; and helped sailors to know where they were. You can see Harrison’s clock, still working, in Greenwich’s museum of the sea. Because of Flamsteed’s work, every country in the world now tells its time by Greenwich time.

Who first lived in the place that is called Greenwich today according to this passage ? ______.

A.Henry Ⅷ

B.Romans

C.Charles Ⅱ

D.the Saxons

第10题

Jules Verne was called father of science fiction. He was a Frenchman who was born in 1828
and died in 1905. He was interested in science and wrote a number of exciting story books about the things which he thought that scientists and inventors would one day be able to come true. Years later, many of the things really happened. At that time, however, his stories seemed like fairy tales.

Jules Verne's most famous book is 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. (A league is an old word meaning a distance of about three miles). In those days submarines had not been invented but he described an underwater ship very like a modem one.

Many of the things Jules wrote about in his books more than a hundred years ago to look into the future, however, were surprisingly exact. In his book From the Earth to the Moon he wrote at the age of about forty, three men and a dog made a journey around the moon in a hollow ship fired from a gun. After going around the moon, they returned to the earth and splashed down into the sea not far from where the first real moon traveler landed in July, 1969.

Jules wrote a lot of exciting books partly because he ______.

A.liked to do much reading on science

B.liked reading fairy tales

C.was a great inventor

D.was a famous scientist
