Question

【題目】

The world’s largest radio telescope was finished on Sept. 25, 2017 in China.

FAST is a five-hundred-meter telescope. It is also called Tian-yan ("The Eye of Heaven"), with a dish the sire of 30 football grounds, deep in the mountains of southwest China's Guizhou Province. The giant dish is built on a howl-like valley.

The surrounding area has "radio silence" as there are no towns and cities within a 5-kilometer radius（半徑范圍） and only one county center within 25 kilometers.

FAST is made up of 4,450 panels(面板). The second largest radio telescope is in Russia. The bigger dish will be able to pick up weaker signals (信號).

The radio telescope is like an ear, listening to tell meaningful radio messages from white noise in the universe. With the help of the telescope, we can receive weaker and more radio messages far away in space. It will help us to search for intelligent life outside of the Galaxy(銀河系) and explore the origins（起源）of the universe. "Any of its discoveries will lead to a Nobel Prize," said Joseph Taylor, a Noble Prize winner.

The FAST project began in 2011. And the telescope is expected to remain the global leader for the next 10 to 20 years.

【1】Where was FAST developed?

A. In China.B. In Russia.C. In America.

【2】The underlined word "giant" probably means "___________" in Chinese.

A. 神秘的B. 巨大的C. 寬廣的

【3】FAST is used to __________________.

A. explore the origins of human beings

B. receive distant radio messages from the universe

C. watch the beautiful scenery of the Galaxy

【4】From the passage, we can know that __________________.

A. FAST is the largest radio telescope all over the world so far

B. Noisy towns are around the telescope within a 5-kilometer radius

C. The second-largest radio telescope is made up of 4,450 panels

【5】How long did it take to finish the FAST project?

A. About twenty years.B. About ten years.C. About six years.

【解析】

這篇短文主要講述了世界上最大的射電望遠鏡在中國建成。

【1】細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文中FAST is a five-hundred-meter telescope. It is also called Tian-yan ("The Eye of Heaven"), with a dish the sire of 30 football grounds, deep in the mountains of southwest China's Guizhou Province.可知，在中國。故選A。

【2】根據(jù)上文FAST is a five-hundred-meter telescope. It is also called Tian-yan ("The Eye of Heaven"), with a dish the sire of 30 football grounds, deep in the mountains of southwest China's Guizhou Province.及下文is built on a howl-like valley.可知上文是說這個巨大的盤子被建在山谷上。故選B。

【3】根據(jù)文中The radio telescope is like an ear, listening to tell meaningful radio messages from white noise in the universe可知，被用來接收來自宇宙的遠程無線電信息。故選B。

【4】推理判斷。根據(jù)文中FAST is made up of 4,450 panels(面板). The second largest radio telescope is in Russia.可知，Fast是迄今為止世界上最大的射電望遠鏡，選項A是正確的。故選A。

【5】推理判斷。根據(jù)文中The FAST project began in 2011及The world’s largest radio telescope was finished on Sept. 25, 2017 in China.可知，大約花費6年的時間。故選C。
