雅思阅读练习及答案：

Choose the appropriate letter from A-D forquestion 1.

1. Corot is an instrument which

(A) can help to search for certain planets

(B) is used to find planets in the orbit

(C) can locate planets with human beings

(D) can spot any planets with water.

Do the following statements agree with theinformation given in the reading passage? Forquestions 2-5 write

TRUE if the statement agrees with the information

FALSE if the statement contraicts the information

NOT GIVEN if there is no information on this in the passage

2. Scientists are trying to find out about the planets that can be inhabited.

3. BBC Radio 4 recently focuses on the broadcasting of Corot.

4. Passing objects might cause a fall in light.

5. Corot can tell whether there is another Earth-like planet.

Based on your reading of the passage, complete the sentences below with words takenfrom the passage. Use NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

With measurements, scientists will be able to search for some gaseous and rocky planets.They will be extremely excited if they can discover some small 6. __________, the expectednumber of which could be up to 7. __________ .

Corot will enable scientists to study the 8. __________ of stars. In this way, a star’s mass,age and chemical composition can be calculated.

According to Prof Roxburgh, changes in light can be caused by passing planets or star 9. __________. The related statistics can gain us a better 10. __________ of the starformation and evolvement.

Observatories have found many exoplanets, which are 11. __________ other stars thanthe Sun. The common way used in finding exoplanets can only detect huge gas planets, whichdo not 12. ___________ .

With the launching of Darwin, astronomers will be able to analyse whether those rockyplanets have 13. __________ for life.

Answer keys:

1. 答案：A (第3段第1句：Corot, short forconvection rotation and planetary transits, is thefirst instrument capable of finding small rockyplanets beyond the solar system. A项中的certainplanets指small rocky planets beyond the solarsystem.)

2. 答案：TRUE (第5段第1、2句： At the presentmoment we are hoping to find out more about thenature of planets around stars which are potentialhabitats. We are looking at habitable planets, notinhabited planets. 问题中的“that can be inhabited”意思就是inhabitable.)

3. 答案：NOT GIVEN

4. 答案：TRUE (第7段第1句：To search for planets, the telescope will look for the dimming ofstarlight caused when an object passes in front of a star, known as a "transit".)

5. 答案：FASLE (第7段第2、3句：Although it will take more sophisticated space telescopesplanned in the next 10 years to confirm the presence of an Earth-like planet with oxygen andliquid water, Corot will let scientists know where to point their lenses. )

6. 答案：rocky planets (第8段第2句：It is the rocky planets - that could be no bigger thanabout twice the size of the Earth - which will cause the most excitement.)

7. 答案：40 (第8段第3句：Scientists expect to find between 10 and 40 of these smallerplanets.问题中短语“up to”的意思是“达到，高达”，所以应该选择最高的数字40。)

8. 答案：interiors (第9段第1句： Corot will also probe into stellar interiors by studying theacoustic waves that ripple across the surface of stars, a technique called "asteroseismology". 单词"probe”的词义是“探查，探索”。)

9. 答案：oscillations (第11段第2句：Small oscillations of the star also produce changes in thelight emitted, which reveal what the star is made of and how they are structured internally.)

10.答案：understanding (第11段第3句：This data will provide a major boost to ourunderstanding of how stars form and evolve.)

11. 答案：orbiting (第12段第1句：Since the discovery in 1995 of the first "exoplanet" - aplanet orbiting a star other than the Sun - more than 200 others have been found by ground-based observatories.)

12. 答案：harbour life (第13段：Until now the usual method of finding exoplanets has beento detect the "wobble" their gravity imparts on parent stars. But only giant gaseous planetsbigger than Jupiter can be found this way, and they are unlikely to harbour life.)

13. 答案：atmospheres (第14段：In the 2010s, ESA plans to launch Darwin, a fleet of fouror five interlinked space telescopes that will not only spot small rocky planets, but analyse theiratmospheres for signs of biological activity.)
