“Hello, Earth! Can you hear me?” That’s voice...

“Hello, Earth! Can you hear me?” That’s voice more than 400,000 people received recently. It was from Philae, a space vehicle that landed on a comet(彗星)in 2014. However, its transmissions (传输信号)back home went silent since then.

It took a 1ong time for Philae to make its way across the solar system (太阳系)and reach comet 67P/C-G. The pace vehicle got there aboard the Rosetta probe (探测器), which has been circling around the comet since Philae separated from it in November, 2014．

Philae’s job was to collect materials to study the comet’s composition. And for about two and a half days after landing, it did just that, sending the information back to scientists on Earth. But Philae’s landing on the comet’s icy surface had not been smooth. While touching down, it  jumped up and ended up in the shadow of something like a huge rock. Philae runs on solar power, but there was no light in the place where it landed. In the end, it failed to work.

However，as comet 67P/C-G moved closer to the sun, more sunlight reached the space vehicle, allowing it to power up and come back online. Philae then sent something to Rosetta, which passed on the information back to Earth.

“We only received the information for about 85 seconds, but that’s enough to let us know it is alive and well,”says Stephan Ulamec, who works for the European Space Agency.“We hope to work out where it landed exactly on the 4-kilometer-wide comet. Now we plan to change how Rosetta moves so that Philae can keep on communicating and receiving instructions.”

1.Hearing Philae’s voice，those people must have felt_______________.

A. afraid　　 B. calm

C. excited　　 D. worried.

2.According to the text, Philae_______________.

A. was damaged when it landed

B. moved around comet 67P/C-G

3.What Stephan says in the text suggests that ____________.

A. Rosetta will move around another comet

B. Philae will continue to work for scientists

C. most comets are as wide as four kilometers

D. he wonders whether Philae is still alive

The only thing that troubled me more than the pain in my back that morning was my worries about money. I’d been excited to visit my sister--Therese, but all I could think about was how I’d hurt my back and had to　 　　 down my hours at work. Even with my savings, I wasn’t sure I’d have enough to cover the bills.

“Are you OK?” Therese asked.

“Yeah,” I said. “Just wish I could stop worrying about　　 　　 .”

“Why don’t we make Mom’s cake?” she said. “Mom　 　 to make this kind of cake for all of us. It will　　 　 you up.”

It wasn’t easy being a single mom, raising eight of us kids with　　 money, but that couldn’t bring Mom down. She got that spirit from our grandmother, who was never　 　　 about the hardships(艰难，困苦). Also, Mom was good at　 　 use of food. She always found a way to include a special(特别的) treat on birthday or Christmas--a tasty cake with 43　　 eggs, milk or butter.

“ 　　 how we’d all run around the living room singing,‘eggless, milkless, butterless cake’?” Therese asked, laughing.

“Those were good times,” I said. We didn’t have money, 　 　　 we knew how to have 　　 together.

Thinking about the eight of us gathered around the kitchen table waiting for Mom to cut the cake 　 　　　 my worries. Mom would make the cake extra 　　 for Christmas--a coin was put into the cake. “Whoever finds the 　　 in their cake can keep it and they won’t have to do housework for a week.”she would say.

My siblings﹙兄弟姐妹﹚and I are now separated from each other, but the cake still 　 us.

“Cake’s done,” Therese said. I pulled it out of the oven(烤箱), then called everyone in. We gathered around the kitchen table, 　 　 like old times.

“Feeling any　 　　 ?” Therese asked.

“Yeah,” I said. I looked at the　 　 around the table, reminded once again that whatever hardships come my way I can do more than just get through them.

I can find　 　 in my life, even in a simple cake, and share it　　 the ones I love.
