答案

参考答案::(1)古时候,科技落后,生活范围狭小,人们往往凭直觉认识世界;(2)麦哲伦船队环球航行的成功;(3)地球仪;(4)你首先拥抱了我;(5)地球是一个两极稍扁,赤道略鼓的不规则的球体、地球仪是一个正球体;(6)地球的赤道半径比极半径约长21千米,但按比例缩小到地球仪大小时,这个差距难以用肉眼察觉,所以地球仪制成了正球体

解析:

分析:人类对地球形状的认识,经历了漫长而艰难的探索过程.科学家经过长期的精密测量,发现地球是一个两极稍扁、赤道略鼓的不规则球体.

解答:解:人类对地球形状的认识经历了漫长而艰难的探索过程,由片面到全面,由错误到正确的过程.古时候,科技落后,人们活动范围小,对地球形状的认识片面;1519年~1522年,坚信地球是一个球体的麦哲伦率船队航行,结束了人们关于地平、地方与地圆的争论,回到西班牙的船队勇士们收到的礼物之一就是把地球按一定比例缩小后制成的模型--地球仪.地球是一个两极部位稍扁,赤道略鼓的不规则球体,而缩小到地球仪大小时,这个差距凭肉眼难以察觉,因此人们把地球仪制成了正球体.

故答案为:(1)古时候,科技落后,生活范围狭小,人们往往凭直觉认识世界;

(2)麦哲伦船队环球航行的成功;

(3)地球仪;

(4)你首先拥抱了我;

(5)地球是一个两极稍扁,赤道略鼓的不规则的球体、地球仪是一个正球体;

(6)地球的赤道半径比极半径约长21千米,但按比例缩小到地球仪大小时,这个差距难以用肉眼察觉,所以地球仪制成了正球体.

点评:本题内容较简单,但需要认真分析解答.

单项选择题

How should one invest a sum of money in these days of inflation (通货膨胀) Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate is. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.
I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. "The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round people’s wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves. "
Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.
However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling .the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour-glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antiques should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.
Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by the time, why not invest in air antique clock and perhaps make a future profit

The purpose of the passage is ______.

A.to introduce the culture of antique clocks

B.to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks

C.to compare different ways to make a future profit

D.to tell people that we are the slaves of clocks
