For centuries people dreamed of going into space．This dream began to seem possible when high-flying rockets were built in the early 1900s.
In 1903 a Russian teacher named Konstantin Tsiolkovsky figured out how to use rockets for space travel．His plan was the first one in rocket science to use correct scientific calculation．About 30 years later, a U.S．scientist named Robert Goddard built the first rockets that could reach high altitudes．During World War II, German scientists built large rockets that could travel very far and carry dangerous explosives．After the war, scientists from Germany went to the United States and the Soviet Union to help those countries build space rockets.
These two countries were soon racing to get to space first．Each of these countries wanted to prove that it was stronger and more advanced than the other one．Both countries also had powerful bombs．People in the United States were worried when the Soviets were first to launch a space satellite, which was called Sputnik．The Soviets were also first to send a person into space．Yury Gagarin orbited the earth in the Vostok I spaceship in 1961.
The US government set a goal for its space program to be the first country to put a person on the Moon．The U.S．space program built a series of Apollo spaceship．These vehicles were powered by huge Saturn 5 rockets．In 1969 Apollo II took three men to the moon successfully．Nell Armstrong became the first person to walk on the Moon.
The Soviets may have lost the race to fly people to the Moon, but they built the first space station in 1971．The United States also built a space station．The space stations allowed people to live and work in space．Then the Soviet Union and the United States cooperated to hook two spaceships together in space．This action ended the "space race"．Today a much larger space station, built by several countries together, orbits Earth.
Another new way to go to space is by space shuttle．A space shuttle, first made in the United States in 1981, looks like an airplane．Astronauts who fly spaceships have used shuttles to help put satellites into space.

My house is made out of wood, glass and stone．It is also made out of software.
If you come to visit, you’ll probably be surprised when you come in．Someone will give you an electronic PIN （个人身份号码）to wear．This PIN tells the house who and where you are．The house uses this information to give you what you need．When it’s dark outside, the PIN turns on the lights nearest you, and then turns them off as you walk away from them．Music moves with you too．If the house knows your favorite music, it plays it．The music seems to be everywhere, but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music．If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings.
Of course, you are also able to tell the house if you want something．There is a home control console (控制台), a small machine that turns things on and off around you.
The PIN and the console are new ideas, but they are in fact like many things we have today．If you want to go to a movie, you need a ticket．If I give you my car keys, you can use my car．The car works for you because you have the keys．My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.
I believe that ten years from now, most new homes will have the systems that I’ve put in my house．The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I’ve put in today.
I like to try new ideas．I know that some of my ideas will work better than others．But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new, and ask myself instead, “How will I live without them?”
1.What does the passage mainly discuss?
A．How to develop a new system． B．The function of the PIN.

We know that many animals do not stay in one place．Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time．They move for different reasons most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded．When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food．Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed．The most famous migration（迁移）is probably the migration of the fish, which is called “salmon”．This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water．There it spends its life．When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water．Then it gives birth and dies there．In northern Europe, there is a kind of mice．They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded．They move down to the low land．Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea．
Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobsters（龙虾）．Every year, when the season of bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean．Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go．So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don’t．Maybe living things just like to travel．
1.Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to __________ ．
A．give birth B．enjoy warmer weather
C．find food more easily D．find beautiful places

C．at a certain time D．to find more food
5.What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Animals move in order to find food more easily．
B．The migration of the fish called “salmon” is the most famous migration．
C．Living things move from one place to another because they like to travel．
D．Sometimes we know why and how living things move from one place to another, but sometimes we don’t.
