Question

For a long time, humans have used technology (科技) to study the world around us, and Mars is the latest place we’re using machines to explore. Besides the earth, the “red planet” is seen, as the one place in our solar system most likely to have life.
Early last month, the first American robot, Spirit, landed on Mars without any problem. Opportunity, the second robot, landed on the planet more than a week ago. Scientists are very excited about these machines’ safe landing on Mars. It means that now we have an excellent chance to look for water and other signs of life. So far, the robots have found some stones that could show Mars was once a wet and warm planet.
But the trips made by Spirit and Opportunity were dangerous. Mars is often called the “death planet”, because in the past its environment has been unfriendly to the robot explorers. Before Spirit and Opportunity, nearly forty spaceships had been sent to Mars since the 1960s. Two-thirds of them failed. The first spaceship, Korabl, sent in 1962 by Russia was among them. It broke apart (分裂) near the earth.

試題分析：這篇文章主要講了，人類已經使用的技術對我們周圍的空間進行勘測火星是我們使用機器來探索新的地方。除了地球之外，“紅色星球”被視為一個地方，在我們的太陽系中最有可能有生命。美國第一個機器人，精神，降落在火星上沒有任何問題機會，第二機器人機會也安全降落了，但精神和機遇的旅行是危險的。火星通常被稱為“死亡之星“所以說他們的旅行是危險的。
小題1:細節理解題。由第一段For a long time, humans have used technology (科技) to study the world around us, and Mars is the latest place as the one place in our solar system most likely to have life.火星使人們認為有生命的地方由此可知，選B。
小題2:細節理解題。第二段中Scientists are very excited about these machines’ safe landing on Mars.這兩個美國機器人成功登陸火星，可知選C.
小題3:段落大意題。第三段主要講述了這兩個機器人在火星上的旅行是危險，故選A
小題4:主旨大意題。這篇文章主要講述了在火星上尋找生命的跡象是令人幸福的，故選C。
