I fetched my mail as usual. Suddenly a colorful flyer (传单) jumped into my sight. In the middle was a drawing of an old-fashioned phone, like the one my great-aunt Sara had owned 40 years ago and at the bottom was a phone number. Running my eyes over it, I couldn’t help laughing.
“Is that mail funny?” my ten-year-old daughter, Jenny, asked.
“Not really,” I admitted. “It’s about Wake-up Service. Outdated already.”
“What’s that?” she frowned (皱眉). I explained how, before smart-phones, people sometimes paid someone to wake them with a call.
“Who sent this flyer?” she pressed.
I shook my head. “Probably someone older and he could use some money.” I said.
Her eyes lit up. “Can we order a wake-up?” she asked.
“No kidding. With smart phones at hand, who will need it? And it’s no cheap at all. $ 2.5 per day.” I picked up the flyer and headed for the recycling bin.
“Wait!” she shouted.
“I feel sorry for the wake-up man, if he needs some money,” she said, tearing up. “Can’t we order?”
I looked at the flyer with its drawing of an old-fashioned phone. I remembered, again, my great-aunt Sara and her old phone. As a kid, I’d visited her over Labor Day? when Jerry Lewis would host his charity (慈善) event for the disabled kids. Aunt Sara would grasp my hand tightly, and then reach for the telephone, dialing the number on the screen. Holding the receiver between us, we’d announce to the operator, “We’d like to help those kids.”
But now here was my own child, showing the same big heart I’d once been encouraged to have, and how could I ignore (不理睬) her? I Googled flyer’s telephone number. The number belonged to a man called Raymond.

China on Thursday successfully launched space lab Tiangong-2 into space, meaning another historic step towards building a manned space station around 2020.
Measuring 10.4 meters in length, the tube-like Tiangong-2 is designed to enable two astronauts to live in space for up to 30 days and to receive spaceships.
Once inside Tiangong-2, two astronauts arriving from the Shenzhou-11 spaceship will carry out key experiments related to in-orbit equipment repairs, aerospace medicine, space physics and biology, such as space clocks and solar storm research. The number of experiments carried out by Tiangong-2 will be the highest of any manned space mission (航天任务) so far.
The successful launch of the Tiangong-2, along with the first flight of China’s new generation carrier rocket Long March-7 in June, bodes well for the final stage of China’s three-step manned space plan.
The first step, to send an astronaut into space and return safely, was fulfilled by Yangliwei in the Shenzhou-5 mission in 2003. The second step is developing advanced space flight technologies, including the launch of two space labs. Finally, the third step will be to operate a manned space station.
Once the space lab mission comes to an end, China will start building our own space station, which is planned for completion by around 2020. The Chinese space station will be much smaller than the current International Space Station (ISS), but it can be expanded for scientific research and international cooperation. With the ISS set to retire in 2024, the Chinese station will offer a promising choice, and China will be the only country with a permanent (永久) space station.
1.What do we know about Tiangong-2?
A. It is able to receive spaceships.
B. It sent two astronauts into space.
C. It was launched by Long March-7.
D. It works for international research.
2.What does the underlined phrase “bodes well for” probably mean?
A. makes up B. turns out to be
C. mainly results from D. suggests the success of
