The strangeness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.

First consider something as simple as sleep. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be covered up.”

On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars (把手). It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to ride violently. You can watch a movie while you ride by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But people in the station have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help air to move, the carbon dioxide you breathe in may form a cloud around you head. You can end up with a carbon- dioxide headache.

Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat, “Your inner ear thinks you’re falling. Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying－that’s why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days－truly terrible days for some people－astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.

Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so important that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is not only about science and the future. They should make sure that any astronaut can return home, and, more importantly, the astronauts keep strong and fit for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.

1.What is the major difficulty to astronauts when they sleep in space?

A.Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag.

B.Deciding on a proper sleep position.

C.Seeking a way to fall asleep quickly.

D.Finding a right time to go to sleep.

2.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon dioxide headache when _________.

A.they circle around on their bikes.

B.they watch a movie while pedaling.

C.they use microcomputers without a stop.

D.they exercise in one place for a long time.

3.One of the NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is _________.

A.how much exercise they do on the station

B.whether they can recover after returning home

C.how they can remain healthy for long in space

D.whether they are able to go back to the station

4.What does the author think of about life in space?

A.Strange B.Funny C.Violent D.Unhealthy

Astronomy is the oldest science known to man.Thousands of years ago man looked at the stars and wondered about the heavens.But man was limited by what he could see with his eyes alone.

The Greeks studied astronomy over 2,000 years ago.They could see the size，color，and brightness of stars.They could see their places in the sky.They watched the stars move as the seasons changed.But the Greeks had no tools to help them study the starry heavens.

Each new tool added to the files of astronomy；it helped man reach out into space.Until there were telescopes(望远镜)，man knew little about the moon.They did not know that the planet called Saturn(土星) has rings around it.Their sight was so limited that they could not see all the planets.In the early 1700s，people thought there were only six planets.

Before the spectroscope(分光镜)，man did not know what kind of gases are in the sun or other stars.Without the radio telescope(电波望远镜)we did not know that radio noises come from far out in space.

Today，astronomy is a growing science.We have learned more in the last fifty years than in the whole history of astronomy.

1.The passage mainly tells us ________.

A.the spectroscope helps man know what kind of gases are in　 the sun and other stars

B.there are eight planets in space

C.there was much noise in space

D.science can’t grow fast without modern technology

2.Thousands of years ago，________.

A.man watched the stars with their eyes

B.telescopes helped man to study the stars

D.man knew Saturn has rings around it

3.When the Greeks watched the stars，they knew all of the following except ________.

A.the color of the stars

B.the size of the stars

C.the movement of the stars

D.what the stars were made of

4.Man now knows ________.

A.the moon has rings around it

Earlier this year, China achieved a new milestone in space exploration. On Jan. 3, Chang’e 4 became the first space probe (探测器) in history to successfully land on the far side (dark side) of the moon. After a 26-day journey, it touched softly down on a crater. The whole process of landing lasted 12 minutes, which opened a new page in history of mankind’s space exploration.

The far side of the moon is the side that we can not see. We don’t know much about it. This landing is of great importance. The far side of the moon is an ideal place for scientific research. It may have unique minerals (矿物质）and other resources. Scientists can make clearer observations of deep space from there.

Chang’e 4 has sent back photos of the far side of the moon. It is also being used to carry out experiments. The data collected from these experiments could be used to help us build a base on the moon in the future. The success of the Chang’e 4 mission (任务) is a major achievement for China’s space program.

China launched its lunar (月球的) exploration program in 2004, naming it Chang’e. Chinese scientists set three goals-“orbiting (环绕运行), landing and sample returning”. Chang’e 4 has realized the second goal. The third will be achieved during the Chang’e 5 mission, which is set to take place before the end of this year.

Following the success of the Chang’e missions, Chinese scientists are looking even farther into our’ solar system. China’s first Mars mission is expected to be carried out by 2020.

1.Chang’e 4 is the first space probe in the world to land ________.

A.in deep space

B.on the moon

C.on the near side of the moon

D.on the far side of the moon

2.The underlined word “observations” in paragraph 2 means

A.学习 B.观察 C.描述 D.庆祝

3.Which of the following is the second goal of China’s lunar exploration program?

A.Landing on the moon.

B.Bringing some samples back to the earth…

C.Building a base on the moon.

D.Travelling around the moon.

4.What can be the best title of the passage?

A.The Space Probe B.Exploring the Moon

C.The Three Goals D.Exploring the Mars

Space is the final frontier (前沿). Sending rockets into space has become almost common. The demand for communications satellites and space-based image services is growing.

Today, space efforts cost about $200 billion a year. Joint efforts between governments and businesses are helping to lower costs and increase our understanding of the universe.

The business of space looks good for Orbital ATK, a company based in the United States. In January, the company launched its Antares rocket. The rocket was carrying the first of eight planned supply shipments to the International Space Station. Orbital ATK is one of the two American companies paid by NASA to transport supplies to the space station.

A company called Arianespace is a private European space business. Clayton Nowry heads the American division of the company. He says the increase in rocket launches is partly the result of increased demand for space-based technologies. These include high-definition (高清的) broadcasts and satellite broadband services.

While there is more demand for satellites, the end of NASA's Space Shuttle program in 2011 has hurt the space industry. Janice Starzyk works at International Launch Services. She works on education issues at the Washington Space Business Roundtable. She said, "It's a pity that the program's shutdown was a huge, huge set of lay-offs (下岗人员) in the industry."

But even as NASA reduces its spending, other countries have announced plans to explore space. In December 2013, China became just the third country to land an unmanned space vehicle on the moon. A month later, India sent its first communications satellite.

1.What makes sending rockets into space become very usual?

A.More and more people wanting to explore space.

B.Space becoming human's final home and dream.

C.Companies making every effort to earn $ 200 billion a year.

D.Increasing need for communications satellites and space-based image services.

2.Why are governments and businesses working together?

A.To earn more money from space projects.

B.To send more rockets into space and use them.

C.To produce more communications satellites for the public.

D.To keep costs down and help us learn more about the universe.

3.What do we know about Orbital ATK?

A.It's a private European space business.

B.It sent its Antares rocket in January.

C.It's a company based in the United Kingdom.

D.It's the only American company paid by NASA.

4.How may Janice Starzyk feel about the program's shutdown?

A.Hopeful. B.Content.

C.Regretful. D.Uninterested.

Life has gone mostly online for many people around the world. With more people going online during the COVID-19 pandemic, global Internet traffic has become a big problem. Between January and late March. many major cities experienced an increase in Internet traffic.

Video meetings, online classrooms and stay-at-home entertainment have become a daily routine. This increase in traffic is testing the Internet' s strength. In March. major phone networks in the UK experienced mass outages(断供). People were not able to take calls, receive texts or use mobile data.

In the US, major telecommunications companies like AT&T said traffic was up 21 percent month over month. Video streaming services like You Tube, Netflix and Facebook have cut their picture qualities and download speeds. This is being done to reduce network traffic jams.

China has seen an Internet traffic increase of around 50 percent compared to the end of 2019. The country's network speeds went down sharply in early February. However, they returned to normal soon afterwards and have been working well. This is due to China’s work in building network infrastructure(基础设施), especially 5G technology. By the end of February, 164,000 5G base stations had been built nationwide. This has given Chinese networks the power to handle increased traffic.

“If there were no such development in the Internet network field. people could hardly enjoy such a colorful life at home. Online working and teaching could never be realized so smoothly," said Wen Kun, an official with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

1.What happened to the Internet due to COVID-19?

A.Internet traffic was jammed. B.Internet access was cut off.

C.Internet service was ignored. D.Internet community was ruined.

2.Why did some US companies cut download speeds?

A.To increase Internet strength. B.To improve picture qualities.

C.To avoid Internet breakdown. D.To reduce the number of users.

3.Compared with other countries. China's Internet system_________.

A.suffered bigger losses B.recovered faster

C.cost less money D.started earlier

4.What is Wen Kun's attitude towards China's Internet network?

A.Doubtful. B.Uncaring.
