Passage 40(2018威海)
The Building That Moves
Everyone nows that buildings don't move. They can't change the way they loo. However, architect(建筑师)David Fisher wants to change that.
Fisher has an amaing idea. He wants to mae 80story buildings that change shape. Each floor will move around slowly. The floors will move at different speeds. Because of this, the shape of the building is always changing. “These buildings will never loo the same，”says Fisher.
His idea is an interesting one. However, Fisher doesn't stop there. He also wants the building to be “green”. The building will mae its own energy. In most buildings, only the top floor has a roof(屋顶). In Fisher's building, each floor will have its own roof. The roofs each have solar panels(太阳能板). This means a lot more solar energy. Also, machines between each floor of the building will catch the wind. They will turn the wind into energy.
Fisher's ideas sound impossible. However, that's_what_people_also_said_before_humans_traveled_into_space!
( )1. The passage is mainly taling about________．

A. is tall and always moving
B. is tall and has many solar panels
C. is always moving and has many solar panels
( )4. The Fisher's building will NOT get energy from________．
A. the sun B. the water C. the wind
5. Why does the writer say “that's_what_people_also_said_before_humans_traveled_into_space”？
A. To show why Fisher's building will never wor.
B. To show why Fisher's building is lie a spaceship.
C. To show that unusual ideas can sometimes wor.
【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了建筑师大卫·菲舍尔想建造一个80层环保型移动建筑的独特设想。
1A【解析】主旨大意题。题干意为：这篇短文主要谈论了。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了建筑师大卫·菲舍尔对于未大楼的设想，故选A。
2B【解析】词义猜测题。题干意为：划线单词“80story”是指建筑有80。根据第二段第三、四句“Each floor will move around slowly. The floors will move at different speeds.”可知“80story”指的是“80层”。故选B。
3C【解析】细节理解题。题干意为：菲舍尔的大楼可以自己产生能，因为这座大楼。根据第三段第六、七句“In Fisher's building, each floor will have its own roof. The roofs each have solar panels(太阳能板)．”及第九、十句“Also, machines between each floor of the building will catch the wind. They will turn the wind into energy.”可知，菲舍尔设计的大楼能产生能量是因为大楼每层都有太阳能板，且建筑物楼层间的机器可以从移动的楼层中获取风能。故选C。
4B【解析】细节理解题。题干意为：菲舍尔的大楼无法从 获得能。由第三段第七、八句“The roofs each have solar panels(太阳能板). This means a lot more solar energy.”可知能从太阳中获得能；由第三段第九、十句“Also, machines between each floor of the building will catch the wind. They will turn the wind into energy.”可知能从风中获得能。文中未提及菲舍尔设计的大楼能从水中获取能量。故选B。
5C【解析】推理判断题。题干意为：作者为什么说“在人类登上太空前，人们也这样讲”？由最后一段第二句中的“However”可知，该句与前一句之间为转折关系，表明作者的态度是支持的。故选C。
