I was shocked at how poor so many of the families over there are and how 6 their lives can be. But I was also amazed at how 7 people go about their everyday lives.

Every day, I spent a lot of time10 floors and changing bed sheets, and I also got to spend some time 11 the patients.

The company has no plans to use traditional wiring, which can be costly. Instead the idea is to float huge balloons (气球) about 20 kilometers above the surface of the Earth. The balloons would act like telecommunications satellites, providing Internet service to the rural areas. The huge objects would ride air currents (气流) to either stay in place or move to another position high in the skies. At first, the idea was to have a large number of balloons circling the planet. One balloon would move away from an area while another arrived to ensure service in the affected areas. But the company said it has found a way to make balloons float over one area for a long period. In a report published online, the company said its software “can now send small teams of balloons over a specific area where people need Internet access”. The company said some of the balloons stayed in the same area for as long as three months. The company also said the discovery should speed up the project and reduce costs: “We ll reduce the number of balloons we need and get greater value out of each one, ”they said. But Project Loon workers must still find ways to increase the life of the balloons. A British Broadcasting Corporation report said the longest service for a single balloon was 190 days. Google has also explored the idea of providing Internet service to rural areas using solar-powered drone aircrafts(太阳能无人机). However, it gave up that project because of technological difficulties and high costs. 1. What s the aim of the “Project Loon”? A. To float huge balloons above the rural areas. B. To help rural areas have access to the Internet. C. To increase Google s income in the rural areas. D. To advertise Google s new product in the rural areas. 2. Why wouldn t Google use traditional wiring? A. It could be too expensive. B. It could put off the project. C. It couldn t provide greater value. D. It couldn t work for a long period. 3. What do we know about the balloons? A. They must be used in a large number. B. They could provide service as long as 3 months. C. They ll be sent up by solar-powered drone aircrafts. D. They would work like telecommunications satellites. 4. What is the passage mainly about? A. An unexpected discovery. B. Some unknown facts about balloons. C. Google s using balloons to provide Internet service. D. The differences between the new and traditional wiring. 一、单词拼写1.Province2.conference3.software4.residents5.tough二、完形填空1.C。根据后文“I thought it was the perfect chance to get some experience”可知作者将这看作一次获得经验的机会, 结合后文描述了当地人民贫困的状况, 可推知作者是去做志愿者的。故选C。2.A。句意: 我还有一年(高中)毕业, 我对在大学学医很感兴趣。根据后文“in studying medicine at university”可知作者对学医感兴趣。故选A。3.D。根据后文“none of them changed my mind about being a doctor”可知作者想知道自己是否真的想成为医生。故选D。4.B。结合后文“to a world”和常识可知, 作者想做志愿者工作, 于是被某个志愿者组织介绍去了非洲, 即另一个世界。故选B。5.A。结合后文“I was shocked at how poor so many of the families over there are”可知当地的家庭都很贫困, 这与作者之前的世界非常不同。故选A。6.B。结合上文“how poor so many of the families over there are”可知当地人的家庭条件贫困, 因此生活艰难。故选B。7.A。positively积极地; independently独立地; calmly冷静地; comfortably舒服地。But表示转折, 结合上文“how poor so many of the families over there are”可知, 当地人虽然贫穷, 但生活态度却很积极。故选A。8.D。根据后文“together and help each other is a real inspiration”可知当地人团结一致, 互相帮助。join together“团结, 连接”。故选D。9.C。根据后文“I think many of us don t realise how lucky we are. ”可知作者认为在自己的国家, 很多英国人已经忘记了要团结一致、互相帮助, 也没有意识到他们有多幸运。故选C。10.D。根据后文“floors and changing bed sheets”可知在医院当志愿者的作者每天都要扫地、换床单。故选D。11.A。looking after照顾; learning from学习; taking over接管; cheering for欢呼。根据后文“the patients”可知是照顾病人。故选A。12.D。根据后文“ask them about the profession in person”可知作者有机会和医院里的医生交谈, 询问他们的专业。故选D。13.A。determined坚决的; grateful感激的; nervous紧张的; disappointed失望的。结合上文“none of them changed my mind about being a doctor”可知作者在医院看到的事情, 坚定了学医的决心。故选A。14.C。结合后文“I want to work for an international organisation like the Red Cross”可知作者目标明确, 很确切地知道自己接下来要做什么。故选C。15.D。根据后文“people overseas who haven t been as lucky in life as me”可知作者打算帮助那些在生活中没有像作者那样幸运的海外人士。故选D。三、阅读理解1.B。推理判断题。根据第一段第一句可知, 谷歌公司的“Project Loon”旨在向世界各地没有互联网连接的农村地区提供互联网服务, 即帮助农村地区能够连接到互联网。故选B。2.A。细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知, 谷歌公司不计划使用传统的线缆, 是因为传统的线缆可能会花费很大。故选A。3.D。细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知, 这些气球在空中的作用就像通信卫星一样, 为农村地区提供互联网服务。故选D。4.C。主旨大意题。本文介绍了谷歌公司的“Project Loon”的进展情况。该项目旨在向世界各地没有互联网连接的农村地区提供互联网服务。文章第一句就是全文主题句。故选C。第8页(共8页)
