Mars（火星）appears to be flowing with small streams of salty water,at least in the summer,scientists reported Monday."It suggests that it would be possible for there to be life today on Mars," NASA's science mission chief,John Grunsfeld,said at a news conference on September 28,2015.
The streams are about 12 to 15 feet wide and 300 feet or more long,scientists said."What we're dealing with is wet soil.Thin layers of wet soil,not standing water," said Aifred McEwen of the University of Arizona at Tueson,the principal scientist for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's high-resolution imaging experiment.
Because liquid water is extremely necessary to life,the findings could have major possible effects for the possibility of Martian life.The researchers said further exploration is needed to determine whether microscopic life exists on the planet.
The presence of liquid water could also make life easier for astronauts visiting or living on Mars.Water could be used for drinking and for creating oxygen and rocket fuel.NASA's goal is to send humans there in the 2030s.
The evidence of flowing water consists largely of dark,narrow streaks（条痕）on the surface that tend to appear and grow during the warmest Martian months and fade the rest of the year.
Mars is extremely cold even in summer,and the streaks are in places where the temperature is as low as minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit.But salt can lower the freezing point of water and melt ice.
The source of the water is a mystery（神秘的事物）.Scientists noted it could be melting ice.It could be an underground aquifer（砂石含水层）,which is rock or sand that can hold water.It is possibly water vapor from the thin Martian atmosphere,or it may be a combination Michael Meyer,lead scientist for NASA's Mars exploration program, said the only definitive way for now to determine whether there's life on Mars is to collect rocks and soil for analysis on Earth-something a U.S.lander set for lift-off in 2020 will do.
1.What matters to the existence of liquid water on Mars?
A. The distance from the sun. B. The favorable climate.
C. The gravity of the earth. D. The salt in it.
2.According to John Grunsfeld,on Mars there seems to be .
A. salty water B. standing water
C. rocket fuel D. human beings
3.Scientists are uncertain about the of the water on Mars.
A. state B. source
C. temperature D. taste
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A. Streams of Water Spotted on Mars
B. Astronauts Will Land on Mars
C. NASA's Mars Exploration Program
D. A Breakthrough in the Exploration of Mars

Is it possible to persuade mankind to live without war? War is an ancient custom which has existed for at least six thousand years.It was always evil and usually foolish,but in the past the human race managed to live with it. Modern skill has changed this.Either man will stop war,or war will stop man.For the present,it is nuclear weapons that cause the greatest danger,but bacteriological（细菌的）or chemical weapons may,before long,offer an even greater threat.If we succeeded in stopping war,there would be no danger for us.To do this,we need to persuade mankind to look upon international questions in a new way,not by contests of force,in which the victory goes to the side which is most skillful in massacre（大屠杀）,but by arbitration（仲裁）in accordance with agreed principles of law.It is not easy to change old mental habits,but this is what must be attempted.
There are those who say that the adoption of this or that ideology（意识形态）would prevent war.I believe this to be a complete error.All ideologies are based upon beliefs without proof which are,at best,doubtful,and at worst, totally false.Those people who believe them are willing to go to war in support of them.
The movement of world opinion during the past two years has changed very largely such as we can welcome.It has become a common belief that nuclear war must be avoided.Of course,very difficult problems remain in the international world,but the spirit in which they are being approached is a better one than it was some years ago.It has begun to be thought,even by the powerful men who decide whether we shall live or die,that agreements should be reached even if both sides do not find these agreements wholly satisfactory.It has begun to be understood that the important conflict nowadays is not between East and West,but between Man and the bomb.
1.The underlined word "this" in Paragraph l probably refers to " ".
A. abolishing war B. improving weapons
C. solving international problems D. living a peaceful life
2.From Paragraph 2,we learn that the author .
A. is a supporter of some modern thoughts
B. has no doubt about the truth of any thought
C. does not think the adopinon of any thought could stop war
D. believes the adoption of some thoughts could prevent war
3.The last paragraph suggests that .
A. nuclear war will certainly not take place
B. real agreements have been now reached
C. world opinion is still divided on nuclear war
D. man is beginning to realize that nuclear war is his greatest enemy
4.Which of the following words can best describe the author's feeling in writing this passage?
A. Disappointed. B. Doubtful.
C. Worried. D. Hopeful.

Life's greatest joys and its greatest sorrows often come from the relationships we have developed with others.
In our world today,it seems that most people struggle for happiness through pleasant physical surroundings and economic security.These are great,but if there is conflict in human relations,these things do not bring happiness. Think about the last time you were having an argument or a disagreement with one of your co-workers,your boss, your friend,or a family member.Was it easy or difficult to focus on your priorities（优秀考虑的事）?Even though you might have been having some success m many areas of your life,did you find yourself still feeling some discomfort due to the stress in that particular relationship?On the contrary,you may know people who are happy in great poverty and with physical stress if they have meaningful,pleasant relations with people around them.
Consider the most relationship that you have ever had with any individual（个人）.To some degree it probably is or was marked by absolute honesty,deep levels of trust,respect for that person's skills,knowledge,or abilities,open communication,acceptance of differing views,and little concern for images（形象）.
In effort to make the relationships we currently have the best that they can be,remember that persuasion usually cannot take place unless there is some sort of close,meaningful connection between the two people involved.The result will be a relationship of respect and progression.
Many of us have difficulty in accepting the faults and weaknesses of others; co-workers,work leaders,family members,or members of our social or religious groups.Our tendency to demand perfection of others can cause us to lose sight that we,ourselves,are less than perfect.Undoubtedly,there are differences among us.Some of us are even cruel and unpleasant.Others may have cultural differences that are blocks that affect us.But learning to look for the similarities instead of those things that set us apart,bearing differences,and seeing the best in others rather than the worst will lead to relationships of deep respect and lasting value.
1.Paragraph 2 was written in order to .
A. raise a new problem B. list some arguments
C. introduce the main idea D. analyze the back ground
2.In order to have good relationships with a person,we should .
A. try to persuade him to accept our ideas B. help him gain some knowledge
C. show our honesty and trust him D. improve our own capabilities
3.People cannot accept others' shortcomings mainly because .
A. they attached too much importance to others' words
B. they can't have a trustworthy relationship
C. they refuse to admit the cultural differences
D. they have higher demands on other people
4.What's the best title for the passage?
A. A Good Understanding of Relationships
B. Build Lasting Relationships with Others
C. Deep Respect Leads to Good Relationships
D. Discomfort Caused by Bad Relationships
