A
Bored with your life? Dreaming of something different? I always wonder what life would be like400 kmabove my head. That's where the International Space Station orbits the earth, with six astronauts living and working on board, for months at a time.
How do they sleep? They spend the night floating in a sleeping bag inside a small cubicle (小隔间) on the ceiling. American astronaut Sunita Williams explains, “It's like a little phone booth, but it's pretty comfortable and it doesn't matter if I turn overand sleep upside down. I don't have any sensation (感觉) in my head that tells me I'm upside down.”
Brushing your teeth in a place where you can't have a tap or a sink can be a challenge. Can you imagine the mess that running water would make in zero gravity? Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield uses a straw to put a big blob of water from a sealed bag onto an ordinary toothbrush and adds a little toothpaste which he has to swallow when he's done.
Daily exercise is essential. The lack of gravity makes bones more fragile and muscles lose strength — so astronauts are encouraged to work out for at least two hours a day.
The role of astronauts in the International Space Station is to act as lab technicians for scientists back on earth. So they spend their time maintaining their environment and performing and monitoring experiments in a confined space about the size of a Boeing 747. Almost every task is carefully planned by mission control — although most astronauts spend their first days losing things until they get used to sticking everything they use to the walls with Velcro, duct tape (强力胶带) or clips (夹子)．
One of their most valued perks (额外待遇) is the view from “the office”, dominated by that gigantic blue ball down there, sitting in the darkness of space. Wow! Absolutely breathtaking! 1. When they sleep upside down, the astronauts willnot get dizzy because ________. A. they don't feel it B. they sleep in the daytime C. they sleep in special sleeping bags
D. they are trained to adapt to the conditions of weightlessness
2. What parts become weak if astronauts don't exercise? A. Their teeth and bones. B. Their brains and bones. C. Their bones and muscles. D. Their teeth and muscles.
3. What is the passage mainly about? A. The Problems We Met in Space. B. Living and Working in Space. C. How to Become an Astronaut. D. The International Space Station.
B
Imagine that youare a superhero. Your superpowers are activated by a special suit. The suit communicates with your brain. It allows you to do amazing things with only a thought. By concentrating on strength, for example, you can kick a soccer ball across a field. By focusing on swift actions, you can jump to the top of a tree.
Such a connection between mind and machine may sound like a fantasy. To scientists, though, it is a very real goal. They are creating machines that let disabled monkeys walk. These machines may soon help disabled humans do the same. Unlike other bionic devices, these robotic “super suits” do not communicate with muscles and nerves. Instead, they have a direct line to the brain.
In 2005, doctors drilled a hole in the skull of Hutchinson, who had lost her right arm in an accident. Then they inserted a sensor onto her motor cortex (大脑皮层运动区). Wires connected the sensor to a receiver on her head. After she recovered, researchers pluggedHutchinson’s receiver into a cable that relayed signals from her brain to computers. Then they connected a robotic arm to the computers. The computerscould interpretHutchinson’s brain signals to move the arm.
Soon,Hutchinson, the computer, and the robotic arm became a team.Hutchinsonwas even able to lift her hand and drink from a cup. “She smiled when she put down that drink—that’s everything.” says Donoghue, a brain scientist.
Today other scientists are building on that success. One of those scientists is Dr. Miguel Nicolelis, who designed a whole-body bionic equipment. In 2014, a disabled former athlete kicked the first ball of the World Cup Games wearing one of Miguel’s full-body exoskeletons.
The exoskeleton was connected to brain signal sensors in the man’s cap. By thinking about kicking, he sent
signals to a computer on his back. The computer then translated the signal into an exoskeleton-aided kick. Such designs may become common as scientists keep merging mind and machine. 4.Which can best describe the tone of paragraph 1? A. Narrative and serious. B. Persuasive and critical. C. Informative and objective. D. Descriptive and imaginative. 5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Reason of the experiment. B. Results of the experiment. C. Process of the experiment. D. Significance of the experiment. 6. Why is Dr. Miguel’s exoskeleton special? A. It can be used on animals. B. It can move the whole body. C. It was supported by computers. D. It was connected directly to the brain. 7. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Robotic suits may be widely used to help disabled people. B. Exoskeleton is more common thanHutchinson’s bionic arm. C.Scientific experiments are commonly carried out in football fields. D. Disabled athletes can now play football again with the help of computer.
C
Many of us were delighted to learn that a high school senior Kwasi Enin was accepted to all eight Ivy League universities. To our surprise, he wasn't excited as expected, but appeared extra calm. He announced that he would revisit the universities to find the best suitable in music or medicine. He also wanted to compare their financial aid packages.
Kwasi's success story is rare, but his reaction is not. After the admission letters arrive at home, students have 30 days to really think about what kind of school would help them grow as a person, which school would best prepare them for the future, and at which school they would be happiest. And they also have to think about whether they can afford the school they choose.
But how to answer the questions about which school is the best suitable university? Some young people are
attracted to large universities with great school spirit and a list of offerings. But besides those advantages, many of these universities focus on graduate work and research, with undergraduates taught mostly by part-time instructors. Others are attracted to smaller boarding schools with discussion-based classes. But some of these schools will have much limitation for students who want a high-energy city life experience.
Many students today seem to think they should pick the university where they will get the diploma that will help them get the most highly paid job. This is a sad misunderstanding of what a college education should provide. A good college education should prepare them to overcome any difficulty andthrivein society. It helps them to form the habit of creative mind and spirit that will continue to develop far beyond their university years. So when you choose college, you should consider if it is filled with useful learning to help create new spaces for different possibilities of growth.
8. What can we know about Kwasi Enin from paragraph 1? A. He was from a very poor family. B. He would choose the top university.
C. He was too excited to calm himself at the good news. D. He considered his interests when choosing his university. 9. What can you infer from paragraph 2? A. Few students can be admitted to university. B. Many students face the choices like Kwasi.
C. Top universities are the first choice for most students. D. American students can afford their university by themselves.
10. Which of the following can best explain the underlined word “thrive” in paragraph 4? A. Fail B. Succeed C. Research D. Work 11. What should the best university be like according to the text? A. Very large and have good instructors.
B. Small boarding schools with discussion-based classes. C. It will offerthe diploma to get the most highly paid job. D. It will help continue to develop far beyond university years.
D
A trip to thelibrary was like a great journey to a different country. To get there, we had to walk a mile. But our weekly journeys to the library were a piece of perfection. I had around me at one time all the people I loved best-
my father and mother and brothers and sister- -and all the things I loved best- quiet, space and books.
I read a lot of books about science: not the spaceships my brothers preferred, but the birds and the bees- -literally. I brought home a book of birds and searched the trees for anything other than robins (知更鸟). I went through a phrase of loving books with practical science experiments and used up a whole bottle of white vinegar by pouring it on the sides of our apartment building to prove that it was constructed of limestone (石灰石).
One Saturday, as I wandered through the young adult section, I saw a title: Little Women, by Lousia May Alcott. I had learned from experience that titles weren’t everything. A book that sounded great on the shelf could be dull once you got it home. So I sat in a chair near the shelves to skim the first paragraphs.
I read and read and read Little Women until it was time to walk home, and, except for a few essential interruptions like sleeping and eating, I did not put it down until the end. Even the freedom to watch weekend television held no appeal for me in the wake of Alcott' s story. It was about girls, for one thing, girls who could almost be like me, especially Jo. I had found someone who thought and felt the way I did. 12. What can we say about the author’s family?
A. They enjoyed traveling abroad. B. They were library frequenters. C. They were very fond of walking. D. They led a perfectly quiet life. 13. What does the author mainly want to show in paragraph 2? A. Her different hobbies from her brothers. B. How she conducted science experiments. C. Why she loved books about the birds and the bees. D. Her reading interests during a particular period of time. 14. What opinion does the author hold on books? A. Book titles can sometimes be misleading. B. Science books are as interesting as novels. C. The first few paragraphs of a book are attractive. D. Books seem duller when read in libraries than at home. 15. How would the author describe Little Women? A. It helped her to discover her true character. B. It made her forget about food and sleep. C. It inspired confidence in her. D. It kept her absorbed.
