Many scientists are now exploring the idea of going to live on Mars. Some other scientists from the MASA AMES Center(美国宇航局) have already started the creation of a “Mars town” and many others are in fact already experimenting with it. Of course, these experiments are done on Earth itself but this “Mars town” has an environment practically like that of Mars.
The astronauts working in these towns wear their space suit and also do everything they would really have to carry out if they ever go to Mars in the future.
But Mars would be like Earth, a temporary（临时的） place for humans. When the Sun starts swallowing up(吞掉) the planets, Mars will disappear only hours after Earth. So Mars only seems to be the ideal place to spread the human beings. It is also a good location to send humans if ever there is a disaster on Earth. By saying disaster, I mean asteroids(小行星) hitting and things like that.
If we humans do not want to disappear when Earth or Mars gets swallowed up, we will have to go and live beyond the solar system. But are there any planets outside our solar system prepared to support life? Astronomers’ answer is:
“If Earth can support life, why can’t other planets do the same too? Astronomers have already discovered a Jupiter(木星)- like planet orbiting a Sun-like star, so why not an Earth-like planet orbiting a Sun-like star?
To achieve this goal though, many other problems have to be taken into consideration. How do we transform(改造) a dusty planet like Mars into one more or less like our Earth? How should we go on? There is still a long way to go.
1. The “Mars town” mentioned in the passage is ___________
|
A．a research base on Mars. |
|
B．an experimental lab built on Earth. |
|
C．a strange place on Mars . |
|
D．a town existing in scientists’ imagination |
2. We can know from the passage that astronomers probably think ____________
|
A．it is impossible to transport humans to other planets. |
|
B．there may be an Earth-like planet outside the solar system |
|
C．humans will move to the new-found Jupiter-like planet |
|
D．there’s no need for humans to move beyond the solar system. |
3.Why would Mars only be a temporary(临时) place for humans?
|
A．The conditions there would be too hard for the human beings |
|
B．There would be more disasters like asteroids hitting. |
|
C．It would disappear when Earth disappeared. |
|
D．It would be too hot to live on. |
4.The underlined word “orbiting” in the fifth paragraph is closest in meaning to “________”
|
A．moving around |
B．getting close to |
|
C．passing by quickly |
D．going through |
5.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

A．Mars Town |
B．Living on Mars |

C．The Future of Earth |
D．Where to live in the Future |
If there is one thing I am sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives- the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic(基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do --- as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I am pretty sure that it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read- sports and international news, etc.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media(煤体). They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it is never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.
1. What is the best title for the text?
|
A．The Best Way to Get News |
B．The Changes of Media |
|
C．Make Your Own Newspaper |
D．The Future of Newspapers |
2.In the writer’s opinion, in the future, ___________.
|
A．more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news |
|
B．newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer. |
|
C．newspapers will cover more scientific research |
|
D．more and more people will watch TV. |
3.What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself?
|
A．Sports and international news. |
B．A menu of important news |
|
C．The most important news. |
D．What you are interested in |
4.From the text, we can infer that _____________.
|
A．newspapers will win the competition among the different media |
|
B．newspapers will stay with us together with other media |
|
C．television will take the place of newspapers. |
|
D．some media will die out |
5.The underlined phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means ___________.
|
A．depend on |
B．compete with |
C．fight with |
D．kill of |
London has more than nine million visitors every year. They come and visit some of the most famous places in England: Big Ben, the Tower of London and the River Thames.
You can see some of the most interesting places in London by getting on the tour buses. Or you can take a ride on the London Eye. This large wheel slowly takes you 135m above the River Thames.
The River Thames is London’s main waterway. It has shaped the capital’s landscape, history and geography. So one of the best ways of knowing more about the city is to take a trip along the river.
The clock tower of the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, has become one of the main symbols of London. The sound of the bell, which you can hear at the beginning of many television and radio programmes, has become well-known throughout the nation.
No visit to London is complete without a look at the Tower of London, in the eastern part of the city. After Big Ben, the Tower may be London’s most visited tourist spot. Directly south is Tower Bridge, which is more than100 years old.
Along all the palaces in London, Buckingham Palace is the most famous. It has been the main London home of the royal family since Queen Victoria moved there in 1873. You can visit some of the rooms in August and September. And most mornings of the year you can watch the soldiers
outside changing the guard.
About one hour by train out of London is the Tower of Windsor. Here you can visit another of the Queen’s homes-Windsor Castle. There was a fire in 1992 and many of the rooms were badly burned. But now they are full of beautiful pictures, tables and chairs again.
Sightseeing in London is great, but it can get very tiring. So, the best way to start the day is to fill up with an English breakfast.
You can buy an English breakfast in nearly every hotel, and at many restaurants and cafes. An English pub is a good place to stop for lunch and a drink. You can get hot or cold food and try one of England’s many ales(浓啤酒). Fish and chips are also a traditional English meal. So look out for fish and chip shops in cities as well as by the sea.
Or you can sit outside one of the many roadside pubs and cafes in London, and simply watch the busy world go by.
1.We can learn from the text that ____________.
|
A．Windsor Castle has been rebuilt |

B．the Big Ben can be heard everywhere in London |
