　　“Flying saucer” refers to strange objects which travel through the air at very high speeds. Thousands of people all over the world claim to have seen them. Some believe them to be spaceships form other planets. Others insist that they are a secret type of planes being built on earth. Many people believe that they are only natural phenomena happening under special weather conditions.

　　In the United States, the first flying saucers were reported on June 4, 1947 by a private plane pilot. He saw nine objects traveling in the sky. Each was disk-shaped and very bright. Because their movements were compared to those of a “saucer skimming across the water”, newspaper recorders called them “flying saucers”.

　　Some weeks after the first reported sighting, the United States Air Force was given the job of looking into all the reports of flying saucers. Since the Air Force officials began their investigation of flying saucers, they have recognized most of the objects as stars, planes, man-made satellites, experimental missile(导弹), or weather phenomena. Some of the UFO reports, including photographs, were tricks made to cheat people.

　　All the research so far has failed to prove that UFOs are spaceships coming from the outside the earth.

　　第二节 简答题(共4小题; 10分)

　　阅读短文，根据所要求的字数回答问题。

　　It was a winter morning, just two weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.

　　The bike was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It is really an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.

　　People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.
