11、than Cas Daway答案：B 由前面的“more” 和后一句中的“The figure of 60 rems”可知，应选than，表示“ 远超 0.1 雷姆的辐射量” 。 阅读理解AEdmund Halley was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of comets (彗星) which other scientists had made. The orbit of one particular comet was a very difficult mathe
12、matical problem. He could not figure it out . Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.P1However, Halley had a friend named Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem，but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He
13、 told Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse (椭圆)Now Halley set to work. He figured out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531, 1607, and 1682 all had the same orbit.
14、Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart.This seemed very strange to Halley. The different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley thought about it, the more he thought that there had not been three different comets, as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same
15、 comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come back again.It was an astonishing idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction W1 W2of what comet would happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halleys prediction
16、 could be tested. In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it, for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet has been called Halleys comet, in his honorp2.1Halley made his discovery _.Aby doing experimentsBby means of his own careful observationCby using the work of
17、other scientistsDby chance答案：C 细节理解题。由文章第一段第二句及第三段第二、三、四句“He figured out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists.He made a surprising discovery.The comets that had appeared in the years 1531,1607，and 1682 all had the same orbit.”可知应选 C。2Halley made a surprising，but corr

There were 53 years to go before Halleys prediction could be tested.”可知，他预言彗星出现的时间是 1758 年，而这个预言还要经过53 年才能验证，由此可以计算出哈雷得出这个预言的时间是 1705 年。3This passage in general is about
