　　【語篇導讀】　本文介紹了黑色星期五的由來。

　　1．frequently　[考查副詞。句意：它頻繁地被稱作“黑色星期五”。空處修飾動詞短語is referred to，應用副詞。]

　　2．to　[考查固定搭配。relate to...“和……有關”，是固定短語。]

　　3．being　[考查動名詞作主語。分析句子結構可知，本處being“in the black”on the Friday after Thanksgiving作主語。]

　　4．to get　[考查非謂語動詞。它給顧客一個以驚人的價格獲得商品的機會。本處應用動詞不定式作the opportunity的定語。]

　　5．and　[考查并列連詞。多數的商家都會早早地開門迎客，同時為顧客提供很多吸引人的折扣。本處and連接兩個并列的謂語。]

　　6．an　[考查冠詞。an early start“一個早的開始”，此處表示泛指，故應用不定冠詞；又因early的讀音以元音音素開頭，故用an。]

　　7．which　[考查定語從句。分析句子結構可知，本處應為非限制性定語從句，空處指代前面的“people face crowded stores”這句話，應用關系代詞which。]

　　8．busiest　[考查形容詞最高級。它過去常常是一年中最繁忙的購物the可知，本處應用最高級busiest。]

　　9．involved　[考查非謂語動詞。很多人避免在這一天購物，因為會卷入抵抗人群的壓力中。involve與stress為邏輯上的動賓關系，故用過去分詞作定語。]

　　10．has seen　[考查時態和主謂一致。根據時間狀語In recent years可知，本處應用現在完成時，主語the Saturday before Christmas為單數，故用has seen。]

　　Ⅰ.閱讀理解

　　A

　　NASA has recently found a twin Earth in the Milky Way. Scientists said the planet was the closest to Earth that has been seen.

　　Kepler 452b, which has been named Earth 2, is six billion years old. It has a 385-day year and orbits its star at the same distance as us. It is so like Earth that NASA believes it is possible that life once inhabited the planet. Kepler 452b is 60 percent larger in diameter (直徑) than Earth. Scientists say that the planet received the same kind of sunshine as we do on Earth. Thus, plants could survive if taken to the planet.

　　Since the planet is 1.5 billion years older than Earth, scientists say it can show a possible future for earth. “If Kepler 452b is indeed a rocky planets, its location could mean that it is just entering an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history.” Said Doug Caldwell, a scientist working on the Kepler Mission.

　　According to Caldwell, the increasing energy from its aging sun might be heating the surface and evaporating any oceans. Kepler 452b could be experiencing now what Earth will undergo more than a billion years from now, as the Sun ages and grows brighter.

　　The discovery also gives new hope that alien(外星人) civilizations may exist beyond the Solar System. “We won’t be going to this planet but our children’s children’s children might be.” said Jeff Coughlin, another research scientist on the Kepler Mission.

　　The Kepler space telescope (太空望遠鏡) has been looking for signs of new worlds outside the Solar System since May 2009, and has so far found more than 4,000 planets. But those planets are either too hot or too cold to sustain life.

　　（注：Kepler Mission NASA 設計的發現類地行星的太空探索任務）

　　1. The following statements about Kepler 452b (Earth 2) are all correct except ________.

　　A. It has existed for six billion years.

　　B. It is 60% larger in diameter than the earth.

　　C. It has already entered an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history

　　D. It is the closest planet to the earth.

　　2. The importance of the discovery of Earth2 lies in the fact that Earth2 ________.

　　① can show a likely future for the earth

　　② gives new hope that alien civilizations may exist beyond the Solar System

　　③ proves that life once inhabited the planet

　　④ proves that plants can survive on other planets apart from the eartth.

　　⑤ is going through now what the earth will undergo more than a billion years from now

　　A. ④⑤

　　B. ①③

　　C. ②④

　　D. ①②

　　3. What can we infer from the text?

　　A. The earth has existed for about 4.5 billion years.

　　B. Kepler 452b is one of the planets in the Milky Way.

　　C. Doug Caldwel and Jeff Coughlin are both research scientists on the Kepler Mission.

　　D. More than 4,000 planets outside the Solar System still cannot sustain life now.

　　1. C. 細節理解題。根據第三段中的“…its location could mean that it is just entering an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history.”可知，“它的位置可能意味著它正在進入它的氣候歷史中不可控制的溫室階段”的說法只是一種推想，而不是已經進入了。句中的“could”是關鍵詞，它表明了一種假想的情況。故答案為C項。

　　2. D. 細節理解題。根據第三段第一句話和第五段第一句話可知，答案應為D項。

　　3. A. 推理判斷題。根據第二段第一句話“Kepler 452b, which has been named Earth 2, is six billion years old.”和第三段第一句話中的“Since the planet is 1.5 billion years older than Earth,…”可以推知答案應為A項。即地球存在的時間是：（6 billion –1.5billion = 4.5 billion）年。其余各項雖然表述是正確答，但都是原文直接提到的內容，不是推斷出來的。
