【語法解析】
1. 現在進行時表示將來
當一個句子的意思涉及一個計劃好的事件或者明確的意圖時, 用現在進行時可以表示將來時間. 現在進行時的將來意義或者通過時間副詞或者通過上下文來暗示出來.
現在進行時表將來時常有“意圖”，“安排”（但不是固定不變的）或“打算”的含義。這種現在進行時比較生動，給人一種期待感，它常表示最近或較近的將來。所用動詞多是轉移動詞，如：
1) Sam has already made his plans. He is leaving at noon tomorrow.
2) A: What are you going to do this afternoon?
B: After lunch I am meeting a friend of mine.
We are going shopping.
Would you like to come along?
2. 一般將來時和be going to 表示將來
1) 當說話人在做一個預測時, (他或她認為將來會發生或出現某種情況), will 和be going to都是可以用的.
2) 表達一種事先計劃或打算時( 說話人打算在將來做某事因為在過去他或她已制定了一個計劃或決定去做這件事),只能用be going to.
3) 表達意愿時, 只能用will.

III. 閱讀理解
American people like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many countries do so, too. It is a very good habit(習慣).
You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you the salt on the table, when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Think you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters.

點撥
1. 文章的開頭就說，“American people like to say‘Thank you’when others help them”，因此答案為C.
2. 文章的第一段中說, “People of many countries do so, too.”因此答案為A.

IV.
1. C 2. B 3. A 4. D 5. C 6. D 7. A 8. A 9. B 10. B
點撥：
1. 應選C。Scientists have always wanted…, 如果用ever只表示曾經，already 只表示已經，但選用了always 就表示不斷地向宇宙進行探索。
2. 應選B。前句已經講到知道月亮的大小遠近，本句講的是But they wanted to know more about it.
3. 應選A。送人到月球，用send men to the moon; take 是帶人去，誰也沒去過，誰又能帶誰呢？carry men to, 裝載人去，沒有send to 意義好；have men to, 是錯誤的。
4. 應選D。reaches解釋為達到only 240 kilometers; 用is邏輯上是不對的，air 不可能離開地球240公里的；用are語法上錯誤；空氣并不travel。
5. 應選C。前句講到A plane cannot fly, 但不知道是什么，直到下一句才點明是rocket, 所以應用something。
6. 應選D。gas 是不可數名詞，用become、get、make 都不合語法；is made 表示氣體在火箭內部燃燒得很熱。
7. 應選A。因此推進火箭，應該用so, 這是結果；because表示因為，語義不對；for作為解釋，也不行；that的表達結構不對。
8. 應選A。make the rocket fly up…, make 后面加動詞原形。
9. 應選B。Rockets with men in them have been to the moon. Several rockets without men in them 應該是 have flown to another planet, 有人的火箭到月球，無人的當然已經更遠。
10. 應選B。One day, 當然指的是將來，所以應該用will be able to。
