Throughout history, people from many different countries and cultures have lived together in Britain.61. That is why English is a language with so many confusing rules. The English language is made up of the rules and vocabulary each group of people brought to Britain with them.
62. 古英语与我们今天所说的英语大不相同. The invasion of three Germanic tribes helped create the language Anglo-Saxon. Then the Vikings invaded Britain. They brought with them their languages, which also mixed with Anglo-Saxon. 63. The language they created is what we now call Old English. By the 10th century, Old English became the official language of England.
Middle English is the name given to the English used from around the 12th to the 16th century. The French ruled England for 250 years during this period. 64. 正因为如此,法语对英语有很大影响。Many English words we use today come from French.
Modern English began during the Renaissance in the 16th century. Because of this, Modern English includes many Latin and Greek words. However, this is not the end of the changes in the English language. 65. It is certain that this process will continue, and people will keep inventing new words and new ways of saying things.

Before a new type of plane goes into service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more important than all the others.
The first is called the “tank test”. A modern plane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. To test whether the plane is strong enough, it is put into a huge tank of water. If the plane can accept the pressure in the water tank, it proves that it is strong enough. If the plane is not strong enough, there will be an explosion(爆炸)in the water. Engineers can discover which part of the plane has broken. Then that part should be made stronger.
The most dangerous test happens when the new plane is going through flight tests in the air. In the test, the pilot must find out exactly what happens when the engines are all shut off at once. The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilot’s job to find out how he can get control of the plane again.
These two tests are examples of how planes are made before they ever carry passengers.

What does an astronaut eat in space? This is a question that will puzzle many, as people rarely think of that. In the early space-travel years, astronauts ate dehydrated (脱水的) foods that were eaten through straws (吸管). In today’s space-age, the food that they eat is totally different. They eat food in the same way as people do on Earth.
Astronauts are able to prepare and eat a variety of foods in space. Some can be eaten in their natural form, like fruits, while some need to add water, like noodles. However, there are no refrigerators, so the food has to be prepared and eaten without being stored for a long time. When the astronauts are hungry, they simply eat the food by opening the food packages and with a fork, knife, and spoon.
Just like people on Earth, astronauts also eat three meals a day which include breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sometimes they also eat snacks. The US space agency NASA has found out that an astronaut’s diet reduces by about 70% on a space mission, though he has a wide range of foods to choose from like nuts, chicken, beef, seafood, and candies. Drinks in the spaceship include coffee, tea, juices, and lemonade.
Astronauts can also request a particular food that they would like to have in space. Scientists are always experimenting and trying out different space foods that can be offered to astronauts when on space missions.

A. dehydrated (脱水的) foods B. food as people do on Earth
