How do we know, for example, that the stars are really huge balls of fire like the Sun and very far away? And how do we know that the Earth is a
26、smaller ball turning round one of those stars, the Sun?The key to these questions is “evidence“, which means the facts, signs or objects that make you believe something is true.Sometimes evidence means actually(实际地) seeing(or hearing, feelings, smelling .) that something is true. Astronauts have tra
27、velled far enough from the Earth to see with their own eyes that it is round. Sometimes our eyes need help. The “evening star“ looks like a bright twinkle in the sky, but with a telescope(望远镜 ) you can see that it is a beautiful ball. Something that you learn by direct seeing(or hearing or feeling .
28、) is called an observation.Often evidence isns just observation on its own, but observation always hides at the back of it. If theres been a murder, often nobody(except the murderer and the dead person!) actually observed it. But detectives can gather together lots of other observations which may al
29、l point towards the suspect. If a persons fingerprints match those found on a knife, this is evidence that he touched it. It doesnt prove that he did the murder, but it can help when its joined up with lots of other evidence.Prediction(预测) helps to look for evidence. Scientists make a guess about wh
30、at might be true. For example, if the world is really round, we can predict that any of us, going on and on in the same direction, should eventually find ourselves back where we started.People sometimes say that you must believe in feelings deep inside, but not all the inside feelings are real evide
31、nce.What can we do about all this? When somebody tells you something that sounds possible, think to yourself: “Is there any evidence for that?“ And, next time somebody tells you that something is true, why not say to them: “What kind of evidence is there for that?“ Remember, always think carefully b
32、efore you believe a word.1. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A: What you see directly is real evidence.B: Prediction helps to prove something if it is true.C: People should always believe their inside feelings.D: Astronauts find the Earth is round with a telescope.2. Why does
33、the writer use the example of a detective in Paragraph 4?A: To explain what prediction is.B: To tell what observation is called.C: To introduce how detectives work.D: To prove evidence is not just observation.3. The underlined word “eventually“ in Paragraph 5 means _.A: finally B: probably C: comple

38、e you been?“Oh, mom,“ said Ted, “when we play ball games, we f everything else. We dont think of the time. Is supper ready?“The boys mother believed him. Teds a led her to think that he had been playing with his classmates. But he hadnt been playing at all.He had been “kept in“ by the school librari
39、an, because he had made the l in a complete mess. He didnt like to tell his mother about that. He wished her to think that he had been playing.“What a s it is for you to try to deceive(欺骗) your mother!“ said something in Teds heart, as he q sat down to his supper.“I dont care,“ said the boy to h . “
40、I dont care. I didnt tell a lie I didnt say that I was playing.“But,“ said the voice, “you used words which m your mother think that you had been playing, and that was s to what you had said so.“I didnt tell a lie.“ said Ted.Did Ted tell a lie, or did he not? What do you think?If we use words which
41、can deceive others, we tell a lie; and Teds lie was a bad one, for it sounded so like the t . A lie that sounds true is the worst kind of lie.5任务型阅读ASome people have found that they always spend much more on travelling than planned. Here is how it happens:1. Preparing too much before travellingSome
42、people, especially females, like to travel as if starting a new life. Several weeks before the trip, they would be busy shopping for new dresses, better sunglasses and best-selling books. They would rather fill their travelling bags up with all fashionable things. Just travelling? Attending a fashio
43、n show more like it. They care more about their appearance than the sights they see during the trip.2. Following other travellers blindlyThey cant stop shopping for objects they would never normally buy and would certainly never use. For example, we can find a group of travellers “getting ahead“ to
44、buy “Christmas“ presents even in summer.3. Replacing things that are forgotten to bringThey dont remember to bring things like trainers, cool bags, toothbrushes or beach towels. The towels sold near beaches are nearly the price of gold leaves. They spend a lot on those things. However, plenty of new
