九年级英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
As one of the most well-known of the fantasy languages invented for science fiction film, television and book, and developed by J.R.R. Tolkien himself, Elvish is made up with several thousand words and different sentence structures.
Constructed languages (人造语言) like Elvish are real languages, made up of thousands of words created by fantasy writers, linguists and fans, with real language rules. While a widespread vocabulary is advantageous to a constructed language, there is a key differentiator (区分者) we can see between just a lot of words and real language: Grammar.
Grammar is what makes constructed languages like Elvish learnable by everyday superfans. Superfans of The Lord of the Rings have built websites and created dictionaries, apps and translators, to teach Elvish. They have also created online clubs where fans can discuss and even create new words based on the already existing vocabulary, and continue to study the language.
So what does it take to be a master of Elvish?
In learning Elvish, there are a couple of grammatical rules similar to those of the English language. For example, in order to make a verb past tense in English, you have to add an -ed, making wash, washed. Similarly in Elvish, in order to change the word for wash, which is allu, to the past tense then you have to add an -ne to the word. So washed is then translated to allune in past tense.
Nouns in Elvish are different in the way that the noun changes depending on how it’s used in a sentence, just like in Latin or Russian. For example, the word head in Elvish is CAS. However, if you duck your head, then the word changes to CARA. When mentioning something in your head, then it changes to CASSE. Tolkien’s attention to detail in creating the fantasy world used in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, complete with multiple functioning (多功能的) invented languages, has attracted readers and movie viewers these years.
Elvish is only one of the many magical languages developed by J.R.R. Tolkien. Creating language for fantasy has proven to add to viewers and readers experiences. By transplanting their imagination to a new world, fans are able to learn the new language and speak Elvish with each other, much like their favorite characters.
1. Elvish is considered a real language because ______.
A. certain grammatical rules make the language learnable
B. it is made up with lots of words and sentence structures
C. characters in The Lord of the Rings use it to communicate
D. new words can be created based on already existing words
2.For the fans of The Lord of the Rings, ______.
A. Elvish is a language difficult to learn
B. there is no Elvish dictionary to refer to
C. Elvish adds to the novel’s attractiveness
D. they can even create new grammar for Elvish
3. Which of the following is TRUE about Elvish?
A. The translation of “washed” in Elvish is “allu”.
B. The form of a noun doesn’t change in Elvish.
C. Elvish and English share the same grammar.
D. Elvish is also used in the film The Hobbit.
4.The best title for this passage might be ______.
A. Elvish, a Magical Language
B. J.R.R. Tolkien, a Great Writer
C. The Hobbit, a Wonderful Film
D. Language, a Way to Communicate

Science fiction is a popular kind of writing, and many people think of Jules Verne as the father of science fiction. He was born in France in 1828. His father wanted him to become a lawyer(律师), but when he was about twenty years old, Verne decided to become a writer. At first he wrote plays for the theater. Then, in 1863, he wrote a story called Five Weeks in a Balloon. The success of this book encouraged him to write more stories such as A Journey to the Center of the Earth(1864) and From the Earth to the Moon(1865).
In the 19th century, many people were interested in science and inventions. Jules Verne wrote about scientific subjects in his stories and, as a result, they were very popular. Verne’s writing included many predictions(预言) for the 20th century and many of them came true. He described space flight, movies, and air conditioning, a long time before they appeared. These books were very successful and they made Verne rich.
Jules Verne’s books have been the subjects for many movies. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was a successful movie for Walt Disney. It was the first Disney movie to use real actors instead of cartoon drawings. Around the World in Eighty Days is another famous movie based on one of Verne’s books. The main character is an Englishman called Phileas Fogg. For him, the most important thing is to be always on time!

In the 1966 science-fiction (科幻) film Fantastic Voyage, a team of scientists and doctors are put into the body of an ill man to fix his body.
Such an idea, while fun, sounds surprising to many. But what if it were possible to treat an illness like cancer (癌症) by putting tiny pieces of something into the body to not only find the cancer, but also destroy it without harming anything else? Although it may seem like science fiction, tools like this are now being developed and may, in fact, become common in the near future – thanks to research now being done in the field of nanotechnology (纳米科技).
The main thing to know about nanotechnology is that it’s small – really small. Using this technology, it will be possible to discover cancer at a certain level where there are perhaps only a thousand bad cells (细胞). Compare this to what happens today: Doctors can discover cancer only after the dangerous cells have increased into the millions. One of the advantages of discovering and treating cancer at an early period is that the cells are less likely to become resistant to medicine treatment. In later period, cancer cells often change and get used to certain medicine so quickly that many medicines become ineffective.
Once a certain type of cancer is discovered, nanotechnology will also completely improve the way it is treated. Right now, most cancer treatments kill not only cancerous cells but the healthy ones as well, causing a number of side effects in people, such as hair loss and bad pain. Nanotechnology will allow doctors to destroy cancerous cells without harming healthy cells.
Unluckily, even though nanotechnology has great possibility for medical achievement, there are serious concerns that it could have bad environmental and health effects. Many scientists believe that governments should give more money for safety-related studies – to make sure that these tiny pieces of something do not get into our food and water and cause serious problems.
Meanwhile, research into the uses of nanotechnology continues and it’s developing quickly. Even ten years ago, many of these uses “would have seemed pretty unrealistic,” says Chemist Vicki Colvin. Perhaps that old movie, Fantastic Voyage, isn’t hard to believe after all.
1.According to the passage, nanotechnology ______.
A.may cause a number of side effects such as hair loss
B.may help discover and treat cancer before it is too late
C.can be used to kill both cancerous cells and healthy ones
D.can discover cancer and treat it completely in later period
2.The words “resistant to” in Paragraph 3 probably means “______”.
A.undestroyed by B.useless for C.unsatisfied with D.harmless to
3.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Advantages of Nanotechnology.
B.The Near Future of Science Fiction.
C.A Tool for Creating Medicine?
D.A Treatment for Cancer?

The first part of a new science-fiction series (系列剧)was shown on NBC last night. Star Trek is about a spacecraft(宇宙飞船)which travels faster than the speed of light. The show is developed from three ideas about the 22nd century. First, we’ll find other life forms great tools which will make amazing things possible.
Let’s think about these predictions. If we find life forms on other planets, will they be intelligent? I hope so. But we human beings might not be friendly – I don’t think we’ll believe in the idea of peace one hundred years from now. But this is science fiction, so we can be optimistic! And Star Trek’s idea of life in the future is ‘communicators’. And we will be ablt to have conversatins with people who are on because you’ll have an electronic notebook. And if you get ill, the doctor won’t have to examine you – a machine will ‘read’ your body. The strangest manchine includes a ‘teleport’ which will take people to a different placein a second!
The ideas are interesting, and in my opinion there’s only one problem with star trek: the acting. The TV company (公司)will have to get better actors. If they do that, the show might be a success. If the acting doesn’t improve, Star Trek won’t last for more than one series. Of course, my prediction may be wrong. I can’t see into the future!
1. What is Star Trek?
A. A TV play. B. A popular song.
C. A spacecraft. D. An alien.
2.What does the underlined word “optimistic” mean?
A. Lucky and happy.
B. Hopeful and confident.
C. Helpful and creative.
D. Thankful and popular.
3.Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Aliens on Other Planets. B. The Idea of Human Life.
C. A Science Fiction. D. A New Series about Future.
