How big is space? That is a question man has been asking since the beginning of time. When your grandparents were in school, it was 21 that the Universe was very 22perhaps only 5,000 light years across. 500 years ago people considered that the Universe was only a little bit 23 than the Earth. In modern times with the 24 of technology we are finally starting to 25the immense (无边的) size of the Universe, and it is much bigger than anyone should  have ever imagined.

Scientists cannot stretch (伸展) a measuring tape from the Earth to a nearby star, so how do they know how far away they are? Scientists use something 26Parallax (视差). Parallax means simply that they look at how much the stars move in the sky back and forth throughout the year as the Earth circles the Sun. This is not something 27 to you. In fact if you stretch out your hand in front of you and 28 your thumb, while29 one eye, and then the other, your thumb will 30 to move back and forth. Stars do the same thing, but our eyes are too close to see the difference. However if we take a picture while on one side of Earth’s orbit, and then take another when we get to the opposite side of the orbit, then we have a large enough distance that we can see the stars parallax, and determine how far away they really are.

21. A. measured       B. said             C. thought            D. proved

22. A. old                 B. big               C. mysterious        D. small

23. A. bigger            B. smaller          C. heavier           D. nearer

24. A. popularity       B. power         C. energy           D. strength

25. A. grasp             B. control          C. imagine            D. feel

26. A. honored         B. called           C. considered       D.believed

27A.unacceptable    B.unfamiliar    C.unbelievable     D.unnatural

28. A. look at           B. shake             C. glare at            D. notice

29. A. covering        B. opening        C. controlling        D. hiding

The food we eat seems to have a great effect on our health. Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of human illness is related to food and forty percent of cancer is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep colour in meats and other food additives(添加剂)caused cancer.

Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings(包装)of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar things are supplied to animals not for their health, but just to make a profit.

The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.

  A. perhaps most of human illness is caused by what we eat

  B. perhaps most kinds of cancer are related to what people eat

  C. cancer was discovered in 1945

37. Things that are used to keep colours in meats are       .

38. All the additives       .

  A. are bright and colourless          

  B. are not bright and colourful

  C. have indirect effects on our health 

  D. have direct effects on our health

39. People use additives       .

  A. to make food more unfit to eat   

  B. to improve the colour and taste of the food

  C. to change colour of the food     

  D. to take off the diseases of the food

40. Which of the following is not true?

  A. Some wrappings of food are harmful.

  B. Farmers try to make more money on the market by fattening their animals.

  D. We needn’t take care of what we eat.
