【解析】這篇文章簡述了有名的太空電影“萬有引力”，簡單介紹了其與眾不同之處和精彩的情節(jié)，向讀者介紹了這樣一部令人動(dòng)容的電影。

【1】句意：“地心引力”與眾不同，專注于人類的事件。前句說的是大多數(shù)太空電影都是恐怖電影，故事中總是有外星人，而地心引力卻是不同的，instead可以放在句子末尾表示轉(zhuǎn)折，表示“（相較而言）而不是”，選項(xiàng)A“仍然”，選項(xiàng)B“然而”，選項(xiàng)C“而不是，代替”，選項(xiàng)D“可能”，故選C。

【2】句意：我們首先遇到在飛船外太空行走時(shí)的人物。后文提到的“Dr Stone”是一個(gè)電影中的人物，這里是在描述第一個(gè)出場的電影角色。選項(xiàng)A“人物”，選項(xiàng)B“導(dǎo)演，主任”，選項(xiàng)C“演員”，選項(xiàng)D“粉絲”，故選A。

【3】句意：宇航員很快就被警告說，一顆損壞的衛(wèi)星的碎片正朝著它們的方向飛來。有碎片飛過來說明有危險(xiǎn)，這些宇航員是被“警告”的，“be warned”指“被警告”，選項(xiàng)A“同意”，選項(xiàng)B“警告”，選項(xiàng)C“展示”，選項(xiàng)D“打電話”，故選B。

【4】句意：快速移動(dòng)的相機(jī)和失去與地球的接觸使一切變得更加可怕，“l(fā)ose contact with”指“失去與…的聯(lián)系”，這里是說飛船被擊中，斯通博士被撞進(jìn)了太空，所以是“失去了聯(lián)系”，選項(xiàng)A“能量，精力”，選項(xiàng)B“耐心”，選項(xiàng)C“視力”，選項(xiàng)D“接觸”，故選D。

【5】句意：幸運(yùn)的是，科瓦爾斯基救了斯通博士。斯通博士被救了，這是幸運(yùn)的事情。選項(xiàng)A“最后”，選項(xiàng)B“最終”，選項(xiàng)C“幸運(yùn)的是”，選項(xiàng)D“立刻”，故選C。

【6】句意：“萬有引力”一部關(guān)于一個(gè)女人在孤獨(dú)的地方旅行的具有強(qiáng)大力量的影片。這個(gè)故事的背景在太空中，而且斯通博士孤立無援，在選用描述這個(gè)地方的形容詞的時(shí)候，可以用“lonely”，來映襯前文的“斯通博士在最后已經(jīng)是一個(gè)人了”，選項(xiàng)A“黑暗的”，選項(xiàng)B“孤獨(dú)的”，選項(xiàng)C“可怕的”，選項(xiàng)D“空的”，故選B。

【題目】

When I was in the third grade，I was picked to be the princess (公主) in the school play. For weeks my mother helped me practice my lines. But once on the stage，every word would disappear from my head. Then my teacher told me she had written a narrator's (解說者的) part for the play，and asked me to change roles. Though I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day，she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the yard.

It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions (蒲公英) in the grass. My mother said carelessly，“I think I am going to dig up all these weeds. From now on，we'll have only roses in this garden. ”

“But I like dandelions，” I protested. “All flowers are beautiful！”

“Yes，every flower gives pleasure in its own way，doesn't it？And that is true of people，too，” my mother said.

When I realized that she had guessed my pain，I started to cry and told her the truth.

“But you will be a beautiful narrator，” she said，reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud.

Over the next few weeks，with her help，I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play，my teacher came over to me. “Your mom asked me to give this to you，” she said，handing me a dandelion. After the play，I took the flower home，laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.

【1】The story mentioned in this passage happened in ________.

A. spring B. summer C. autumn D. winter

【2】The girl did not play the role of the princess mainly because ________.

A. she felt nervous on the stage

B. she lost her interest in that role

C. she preferred the role of the narrator

D. she had difficulty memorizing her words

【3】Why did Mom suggest taking a walk in the garden?

A. To remove the dandelions.

B. To enjoy the garden scene.

C. To have a talk with her daughter.

D. To help her daughter with the play.

【4】What does the underlined word “protested” mean in Chinese?

A. 建議 B. 疑惑 C. 抗議 D. 解釋

【5】The main idea of the story is that everyone ________.

A. can find his or her own way to success

B. has his or her own value in the world
