问题详情:
How do people find their ways? At first, people did it by looking at the sun, the moon and stars. Later, we started to use the compass(指南针). Today, there are navigation satellite systems.
A navigation satellite system uses groups of satellites. They send information to a receiver, such as your smart phone. Then they can find where you are.
The earliest navigation system is the Global (全球的) Positioning System(GPS)of the United States. The US has put 24 satellites into space to make sure GPS can locate a person correctly and globally. Russia's GLONASS and European Union's Galileo can also work globally.
The BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS)is China's homegrown navigation system. It was set up in 2000. With it, China became the third country to build a navigation system after the US and Russia.
BeiDou can find you wherever you are. It helps you go faster by finding shortcuts and using correct directions. When you are in trouble and call the police, they will know exactly where you are if you have a smart phone that uses BeiDou.
Today, there are more than 20 BeiDou satellites above our head. And the system is able to offer open services to the Asia﹣Pacific area.
China plans to send more BeiDou 3 satellites into space. BeiDou﹣3's position accuracy(精确度) is less than five meters. By 2020, the BeiDou system will have 35 satellites and begin serving Globally.
24. How did people find their ways at first according to this passage?
A. By looking at the sun, the moon and stars.
B. By using the navigation satellite systems.
C. By looking at the compass.
25. How many navigation satellite systems are mentioned in the passage?
A. Two B. Three C. Four
26. What does the underlined word"locate "in the third paragraph mean?
A. 位于 B. 设置 C. 定位
27. What do you know about the BeiDou system?
A. It was set up before GPS.
B. It will begin serving globally by 2020.
C. There are less than 20 BeiDou satellites today.
【回答】
24.A
【解析】细节理解题。根据短文第一段中At first, people did it by looking at the sun, the moon and stars可知,起初人们通过观察太阳、月亮和星星来做到这一点,由此可知选A。
25.C
【解析】细节理解题。根据短文第三段中The earliest navigation system is the Global (全球的) Positioning System(GPS)of the United States. Russia's GLONASS and European Union's Galileo can also work globally.可知,这里提到了GPS、 GLONASS和Galileo三个;再加上*的BDS,一共是四个,故*是C。
26.D
【解析】词义猜测题。根据短文第二段中A navigation satellite system uses groups of satellites. They send information to a receiver, such as your smart phone. Then they can find where you are可知,*系统可以找到我们在什么地方,即“定位”。第三段中The US has put 24 satellites into space to make sure GPS can locate a person correctly and globally提到的是美国的*系统,这一系统能够准确地定位一个人。由此可知locate这个单词的意思是“定位”,故选D。
27.B
【解析】细节理解题。根据短文最后一段By 2020, the BeiDou system will have 35 satellites and begin serving Globally可知,到2020年,北斗系统将拥有35颗卫星,并开始向全球服务。由此可知*是B。
