China’s first moon rover，Yutu，or Jade Rabbit，separated from the lander early on Sunday，December l5，2013，several hours after the Chang’e-3 probe (探测器) soft-landed on the lunar surface．The l 40 kg six-wheeled rover touched the lunar surface at 4：35 a．m．，leaving deep trace on the loose lunar soil. The process was recorded by the camera on the lander and the images were sent to the earth，according to the Beijing Aerospace Control Center．

After the separation，the rover and lander will take photos of each other and start their own scientific explorations. Engineers made final checks of the environment of the landing site，the situation of the probe and sent signals of separation to Chang’e-3．

Yutu, on the top of the probe，extended its solar panel and started to drive slowly to the transfer mechanism (机械装置) at 3：10．The transfer mechanism unlocked at 4：06 with one side reaching the moon’s surface，allowing the rover to descend to the surface following a ladder mechanism．

Chang’e-3 landed on the moon’s Sinus Iridum，or the Bay of Rainbows，at 9：11 p．m．Saturday，making China the third country in the world to carry out such a rover mission after the United States and former Soviet Union．

In ancient Chinese mythology，Yutu was the white pet rabbit of the lunar goddess Chang’e．The name for the rover was selected following an online poll that collected several million votes from people around the world．

The rover，1.5 meters long with its two wings folded，1 m in width and l．1 m in height，is a highly efficient robot controlled by the command center from the earth．It will face challenges including temperature differences of more than 300 degrees Celsius on the moon．

Yutu will survey the moon’s geological structure and surface substances and look for natural resources for three months，while the lander will conduct in-situ (现场) exploration right at its landing site for one year．

1.What’s the passage mainly about?

A．China’s first moon rover，Yutu，touched the lunar surface．

B．The rover and the lander took photos of each other successfully．

D．Yutu will survey the moon’s geological structure to find substances．

2.Which of the following show the correct order of the Yutu’s landing?

a．drive to the transfer mechanism　　 b．extend its solar panel　　 c．follow a ladder mechanism　　　　

d．descend to the surface　　 　　　　　 e．unlock the transfer mechanism

A．e→b→a→c→d　         B．a→b→e→d→c　 C．b→a→e→c→d         D．c→a→b→e→d

On Tuesday, China announced it had grown the first ever plants on the moon, days after landing on the moon’s “far side” Von Karman crater. The cotton seed sprouts (新芽) seemed to have withstood the tough lunar conditions: freezing temperatures, lower gravity levels, and radiation.

But by Thursday, the new cotton seed sprouts had dead already, according to Liu Hanlong, the experiment leader, in a government press conference statement.

After Chang’e-4 landed on the far side of the moon earlier this month, the probe (探测器) was sent a command to remotely water the plants and start the growing process. A tube directed natural light on the surface of the moon into the small container to allow the plants to grow. The probe entered a sleep mode on Sunday, the first lunar night after the probe’s landing.

Professor Xie Gengxin, professor at Chongqing University and chief designer of the experiment, told CNN that it ended after nine days when the control team shut down the power. Xie said temperatures inside the biosphere had grown too abnormal and reached extremes that would likely kill all life, including the seeds and eggs during the lunar night. Xie didn’t confirm why temperatures had risen to levels unbearable for the plants in spite of the measures taken by the research team.

Even though the experiment was quickly terminated, Xie considered it a success. The cotton were the only seeds to sprout, however, and despite many assumptions about the future possibility of moon clothes, the cotton plant’s main purpose this time was to give researchers the valuable data on how to cultivate life in the moon’s tough conditions. The eventual ability to grow plants on the moon could prove useful for long-term space missions, like a trip to Mars. Astronauts could theoretically harvest their own food in space, avoiding the need to return to Earth to resupply.

Aside from the apparent failure of the biological or plant experiment, the rest of China’s mission to the far side of the moon appeared on track as of Thursday. The historic mission is intended to accomplish a range of tasks, including conducting the first lunar low-frequency radio astronomy experiment and exploring whether there is water at the moon’s poles.

Chang’e-4 is the latest step in China’s robotic lunar-exploration program, named after a moon goddess in Chinese mythology. China plans to launch the Chang’e-5 sample-return mission sometime this year.

Home prices remained divergent in China during December, with some of the first-tier cities recording price drops, while second and third-tier cities saw increases due to the varied market policies, the National Bureau of Statistics said on Thursday.

Newly built commercial housing prices in the first-tier cities－namely Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen－remained stable in December, while those in second and third- tier cities rose by 0.6 percent and 0.5 percent respectively from November 2017.

The same trend was witnessed in second-hand home prices, which dropped slightly by 0.1 percent in first-tier cities and rose 0.3 percent in both second and third-tier cities in December, said Liu Jianwei, a senior statistician at the NBS.

In September 2017, the local governments of several regional capitals launched new restrictions to further slow home sales, in response to the central government’s call to end housing speculation and cool the red-hot housing market in certain cities.

As housing regulations in larger cities have tightened, investors have started looking for opportunities in medium-sized and small cities, thus causing a noticeable home price increase in third-tier cities.

Fan Hengshan, deputy secretary-general of the National Development and Reform Commission, said at an economic forum on Thursday that housing prices in third and fourth-tier cities have risen too fast, and this needs to be monitored carefully.

“The home price increase in third-tier cities will have a fairly large impact, considering that a large part of China’s gross domestic product and population come from these cities,” said Zhang Zhiwei, chief economist and head of equity strategy for China at Deutsche Bank, during a recent media briefing.

Zhang estimated that third-tier cities accounted for a major part of Chinese residents’ 50 trillion yuan wealth gains, driven by rising home prices in 2017.

“Despite a relatively large increase in home prices in third-tier cities, studies have found that at the end of 2017, local residents in 85 third-tier cities need to save four to eight years of their income to buy a home, meaning that house price to income ratios are not too high in these cities,” he said.

1.What does the underlined word “divergent” in the first paragraph mean?

A. Diverse　　 B. Stable

C. Increasing　　 D. Decreasing

2.What do we know from the passage?

A. Housing prices in the first-tier cities dropped slightly in December.

B. Home prices in medium-sized and small cities remained stable in November.

C. National housing prices rose in most time of 2017.

D. The second-hand home prices dropped slightly in the first-tier cities while rose in both second and third-tier cities in November.

3.Why did the housing prices in the third and fourth-tier cities rise fast?

A. Because the local governments didn’t launch any restrictions and regulations.

B. Because the governments in the first-tier cities have carried out tougher measures.

C. Because there are more people living in these cities.

D. Because people there saved more money than other cities.

4.Where is the passage probably taken from?

A. A science book.　　 B. A newspaper.

C. A fashion magazine.　　 D. A text book.
