I can still remember clearly the day after I had my first exam in Senior High. I didn’t pass them. I was so scared that I even don’t want to go to school any more. My parents looked my test paper calmly but said, “My child, we’re very glad you has finished half of it and you can do better next time. We never expect you to do the best at a very beginning. We strong believe you can make progress gradually.” What they said made me to feel I could do things well. From then on, I have concentrated much on my studies. Now I’m always filling with confidence in my studies because I know my parents are always behind me.

Pop music is the name for different forms of popular, commercial (商业) music. It had its beginning in the USA and spread throughout the whole world during the 1950s and 1960s. It is widely liked by the young people. The best known early form of pop music was “rock’ n’ roll”; another was “blues”. A more recent development is “folk-rock”.

It’s a big industry. Much pop music is without artistic value, but the work of some pop singers, e.g. the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the groups like Floyd and Crosby, Stills and Nash, is on a higher musical level.

For centuries, people wondered how big the Earth was. Unfortunately, although the Earth was flat, no one was able to figure out its size. Gradually, however, people began to realize that the Earth was really round.
Then, in the third century BC(2,300 years ago), a Greek man named Eratosthenes had an idea. Eratosthenes was sure that the Earth was a sphere. He used the sun and geometry(几何学) to figure out the size of the Earth. He calculated that the circumference(圆周) of the Earth was 28,600 miles(46,000 kilometers). The true size of the Earth is 25,000 miles(40,000 kilometers).
Eratosthenes’ measurement was wrong, but it was very close to the truth.
For many centuries after Eratoshenes lived, people made maps of the Earth. However, they did not know very much about the world outside of Europe, Asia, and North Africa. Mapmakers could not draw accurate maps of the Earth until people began traveling around the world in the fifteenth century, mapping small areas each time. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, people began making correct maps of countries, but the first accurate maps of the world were not made until the 1890s.
Maps today are reliable(可依靠的), inexpensive, and easy to understand. People depend on maps every day. What would our lives be like without them?
1.A sphere is a ______.
A. large shape B. planet
C. ball shape D. member of the sun family
2.What’s a synonym(同义词) for “figure out”?

C. make out D. understand
3.The first correct maps of the world were made_____________.
A. in the 15gth century B. in the 18th century
C. in the 19th century D. in the 20th century
4.When did map makers begin to draw correct maps of the Earth?
A. When people began to travel around the world
B. When people knew the size of the Earth
C. When people knew the shape of the Earth
D. Before people traveled around the world
