共享题干题 （一）Stars in Their Eye根据材料，回答下列问题。 The ScientifiC．American Book of the Cosmos edited by David Levy, Macmillan, 20, ISBN 0333782933. Previous generations of scientists would have killed to know what we know. For the first time in history, we have a pretty good idea of the material content of the Universe, our position within it and how the whole thing came into being. In these times of exploding knowledge there is a definite need to take stock and assemble what we know in a palatable (受欢迎的) form.________ (46) The essays in The ScientifiC．American Book of the Cosmos have been selected by David Levy, co-discoverer of Comet Shoemaker-Levyg, which in 1994 stnaek Jupiter with the violence of several full-scale nuclear wars. ________ (47) This is certainly a great collection of essays, but it isnot, as the book promises, a seamless ( 完美的，无缝隙的) synthesis of our current knowledge. Nobody can fault the range of articles Levy has included. There are essays on the planets,moons and assorted debris (碎片) in the Solar System, and on our Galaxy, the Milky Way:________ (48) The contributors, too, are stars in their own fields. Not many books can boast chapters written by such giants as Erwin Schrodinger and Francis Criekl My personal favorites are a piercingly clear essay by Albert Einstein on general relativity and an article by Alan Guth and Paul Steinhardt on the inflationary (膨胀的) Universe. So much for the book's content. But Levy has not succeeded in providing an accurate synthesis of our Current knowledge of the cosmos, which the book jacket promises. Gathering together previously publ!shed articles inevitably leaves subject gaps, missing explanations and so on.________(49) But there isn't one. In fact, surprisingly for a book so densely packed with infor-mation, there is no index. Collecting essays in this way is clearly a good publishing wheeze (巧妙地主意). But thisapproach shortchanges the public, who would be better served by an account moulded into a seamless whole. ________ (50) However, for the next edition, please, please can we have an index?1.[不定向选择题]_______A.Tegmark fears he may hold the record for the longest time taken to read one book. B.In a more positive vein, this is a wonderful collection of essays to dip in and out of if you already have a good overview (概述) of current cosmiC．understanding. C.Levy is an active astronomer and an acplished writer, so you'd expect him to provide a broad and accurate picture of our current understanding of the cosmos.

1.参考答案：B
参考解析：文章最后一段是对本书作的评价，在余下的两个选项中，只有选项B的意思放进原文才合适(属于对书的评论)，故选B。
2.参考答案：F
参考解析：此题出现在第四段,我们还是根据上下文来做此题。此段第一句话说没有人可以挑剔Levy所选文章覆盖的范围。选文既有关于各种行星、月亮以及太阳系中各种碎片的，也有关于银河系的文章。根据第一句话中的included和选项F中的also included，我们可以判断这几句话是不能分开的，因为介绍的都是选文的有关内容。3.[不定向选择题]_______A.Tegmark fears he may hold the record for the longest time taken to read one book.
