One day you may be able to ring up a library and ask to see a book. Then you’ll be able to read the book right over your picture phone. Or you may be able to go shopping through your picture phone. If you see something in the newspaper that you think you want to buy , you’ll go to your phone and call the shop .

As the population is growing fast, there must be changes in our food.More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead, people will eat more fruit and vegetables. In this way, people may be healthier.Scientists are always trying out new ways of growing food. Only one third of the Earth’s area is land and the rest is sea, so some think maybe we can get more food from the sea.Besides, though rice supports more than half the world’s population, it needs a lot of water to grow. Scientists predict(预测) the climate will get drier during the next century. Therefore, it might be impossible to grow rice in the future. Some farmers are experimenting with new crops. Farmers like to grow beans because they don’t need much water, and beans also improve the quality of the soil. The soybean(黄豆) makes a good substitute(替代品) for rice and meat.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

They help the p 1 solve crimes and keep the streets safe. But that's not all they do. They also catch people doing very stupid or smart things.One of the videos is of a British woman Mary Bale. She clearly doesn’t like cats. In 2010 she was caught on CCTV t 2 one cat into a dustbin. The video shows Mary walking down a quiet street. All of a sudden, she notices Lola the cat jump onto a fence. Mary stops to pick up Lola and drops her into a large dustbin. Lola was s 3 fifteen hours later. And Mary was arrested for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. She was fined f 250 and was not allowed to own pets for five years.Another video shows "Britain’s drunkest man". He’s been at a party at London's Savoy Hotel. And he’d o 4 had too many glasses of beer. At about 2 a.m., he was kicked out for being too drunk. So, he decided to walk home. On the way, CCTV cameras filmed him falling down stairs and crossing the roads madly .A Savoy Hotel waiter later said, " it's a 5 that he didn’t hurt himself badly.”Sometimes they also record smart events. Once a British band The Get Out Clause didn't have any money to make a music video. So, they came up with an unbelievable idea. They set up their instruments and played a song in front of eight CCTV cameras. And then, a 6 to the English Freedom of Information Act, they asked for a copy of all the footage(视频), which they edited.

Like many lovers of books, they s 1 walked past a bookstore without stopping to look inside. They often talked of opening their own store one day.In order to realize their w 2 they started by talking to bookstore owners and researching book business. One figure caught Mary's attention: She had read somewhere that about 20 percent of books sold were mysteries(推理小说), and many buyers of mysteries spent more than $ 300 a year on books. She and Richard were mystery r 3 and had a big collection of such books.On Halloween 1992, they opened the Mystery Lovers Bookshop and Cafe near their home.With three children in college, it was i 4 for the couple to spend all the family's money to start a shop. To cover the $100, 000 cost, they used some of their savings, borrowed from relatives and from a bank.In order to a 5 customers, Mary always had new ways. The shop had a coffee bar and it offered presents to mystery lovers and served dinner for book clubs that met in the store. She also invited many writers to d 6 their stories with the buyers to let them understand the stories better Now after paying taxes, business costs and the six part-time sales clerks, Richard and Mary together earn about $34.000.“The job we love may not go hand in hand with lots of money, says Richard.

Benjamin Franklin was very famous. He was a 1 of the American Revolution against English rule. He was also a scientist, inventor and writer. And he was even well-known for his proverbs(谚语). Some of them are still used today, like this one: "Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. "And another one is "A penny saved is a penny earned", which means that money should not be w 2 .Americans like to use proverbs, which have deep meanings. Here is an interesting collection of proverbs that Americans use. Some people say " Absence makes the heart grow fonder.” This means you I 3 someone even more when he or she is far away.Another proverb says "Love is blind. "In other words, when you are in love with someone you may refuse to see anything bad about that person.Here is another popular saying about love: "The way to a mans heart is through his stomach. " Some people believe that a woman can w 4 a mans love if she prepares his favorite foods. Some people only want to love someone who is very good-looking. You might tell them that “Beauty is only skin deep. " Your girlfriend may be lovely to look at, but she may also have some b 5 qualities. Or maybe your boyfriend is a wonderful person, but not good-looking. So what a person looks like is not r 6 important.In the end, we must say, "All good things must come to an end.

The three men were Neil Armstrong, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin andMichael Collins. They went to the moon. The mission（任务）was called the Apollo programme.Many people worked to send those men to the moon. It took many years to prepare for the mission. The first Apollo mission, Apollo 1, was not successful. During the later missions, the astronauts practised flying their spaceships. On the Apollo 8 mission, the astronauts flew around the moon. They were nearly ready for the first moon landing.The Apollo 11 mission used a special spaceship. Its name was "Eagle". The Eagle landed on the moon on July 20, 1969.Only Two astronauts walked on the moon that day. Neil Armstrong was the first person to step onto the moon. Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin followed him. The world watched the landing on TV. Michael Collins stayed in the spaceship. It was his job to look after the spaceship that would take them home. He had to make sure nothing would happen to it.The astronauts did many experiments while they were on the moon. Theyalso took some pictures of the moon. The astronauts left an American flag on the moon. Now the flag is still there. Someday moon travel may be common, and people will visit the place of the first moon landing.1．_____ was NOT successful according to the passage.A．The Apollo 1 mission B．The Apollo 8 missionC．The Apollo 11 mission D．The Apollo 17 mission2．What is the right order of the following according to the passage?① Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon.②Many people worked for the Apollo programme.③The astronauts practised flying their spaceships.④The astronauts left an American flag on the moon.A．②③①④B．③②④①C．②④③①D．③①②④3．The writer wrote this passage to _____.A．talk about Neil ArmstrongB．show how to become an astronautC．talk about the first trip to the moonD．show how difficult it is to travel in spaceBLife in space is much different from life on Earth. So, of course, people need some time to get used to (习惯) it. How do they eat, sleep and have fun there? EatingSpace food is more like the food we eat here on Earth. In the past, astronauts could eat only small pieces of dried food. But now the space station has water, microwave ovens (微波炉) and fridges. So astronauts can eat more everyday food, like fruit, vegetables and ice cream.SleepingAll the people in the ISS (国际太空站) have their own rooms. There's no gravity, so they have to tie themselves to their beds, or they'll float away! That seems like a hard way to sleep, but astronauts say that sleeping in space is really not too bad.Having funWhat do astronauts do when they aren't working? They read books, play cards, listen to music or send e-mails to their friends and family. Sometimes they just sit and look out of the window. Doesn't that sound fun? But is it much funnier if you could see the Earth out of your window with a sunset or sunrise every 45 minutes?4．What does the underlined word "it" in the first paragraph refer to (指的是)? A．Life in space.B．Life on Earth.C．The space. D．The Earth. 5．Why do astronauts tie themselves to beds during their sleep? A．Because they would fall out of the ISS.B．Because they may float away.C．Because they want to sleep well.D．Because they like this special way of sleep.6．How does the writer think astronauts can sit and look out of the window? A．Terrible.B．Afraid.C．Bored.D．Excited 7．What can we learn from the passage?A．Astronauts can't eat everyday food in space now.B．You can get your own room if you are in the ISS.C．Astronauts can't keep in touch with (与,,保持联系) their friends in space.D．It is very boring for astronauts to live in space.8．What is the purpose (目的) of the passage?A．To tell us what the ISS is.B．To tell us how to live a good life.C．To tell us how astronauts live in space.D．To tell us what the Earth is like.CWe live on Earth, so it is our home. But how much do you know about it?Let me tell you something about our Earth.The Earth is like a huge ball. Like the other seven planets, the Earth is running around the sun. It's the third nearest one to the sun. It takes the Earth about 365 days to run around the sun. At the same time, the Earth is going around itself. If you are in space, you can see lots of white clouds over the surface of the Earth. Through the clouds, you can see the blue colour of the oceans, and the brown colour of the land. About 70% of the Earth is covered by water.Why do we have day and night? When the half of the Earth is facing the sun, it's daytime. As the Earth turns, and this half is away from the sun, night is coming. And it's daytime for the other half.9．How many planets are running around the sun?A．Seven B．Eight C．Nine D．Ten10．_____ of the Earth is covered by water.A．70%B．30%C．About 70%D．About 30% 11．Which of the following sentences is RIGHT?A．All the planets and stars are running around the sun.B．The Earth is the nearest planet to sun.C．It takes the Earth about 365 days to run around the sun.D．The Earth only runs around the sun.12．When _____, it's daytime.A．the Earth is running around the sunB．the Earth is away from the sunC．the half of the Earth is away from the sunD．the half of the Earth is facing the sunDIn northern Scotland there is a long, deep lake called Loch Ness. More than 200 meters deep, it is the largest lake in the UK. People say a big monster (怪兽) lives in its dark, cold waters. It weighs more than 1,000 kilos and is at least ten meters long. Some people say it has a head like a horse. Others say it looks like a snake. Many people travel to Loch Ness to look for this strange monster, but only a few people have seen it. At least, they say they have seen it.The Loch Ness Monster is a famous legend (传说). The first story about amonster in Loch Ness was told over 500 years ago, but the legend of the monster spread widely only in the twentieth century. In 1933, a husband and wife reported that they saw a big monster in the middle of the lake. Since then, a number of people have said that they have seen a monster in Loch Ness. Several people have taken photos, but at least one of them was a hoax (骗局). During the 1960s, a team was formed to look for the monster. They took many photos and made movies, but they were never able to find a monster.There is no real fact that a monster lives in Loch Ness, but there is also nofact that one doesn't live. One thing is true about Loch Ness: there are a lot of tourists there.13．In northern _____ there is a long, deep lake called Loch Ness.A．Scotland B．Hong Kong C．Rome D．Paris 14．What do people say about the monster in Loch Ness?A．It weighs about 100 kilos.B．It is one meter long.C．It has a tail like a horse.D．It looks like a snake.15．When was the first story about the monster told?A．200 years ago.B．Over 500 years ago.C．In 1933.D．In 1960.16．Why was a team formed during the 1960s?A．To kill the monster.B．To look for the monster.C．To catch the monster.D．To sell the monster.17．What is the passage mainly about?A．People that saw a monster.B．A trip to Loch Ness.C．A legend about a monster.D．A team that look photos.The Earth moves round the Sun, and the Moon moves round the Earth. When our part of the Earth turns to the Sun, it is day. When our part of the Earth turns away from the Sun, it is night.The Sun is much bigger than the Moon. But sometimes the Moon looksbigger than the Sun, because it's much nearer to the Earth.The Sun is very bright. It gives very strong light. The Moon looks quite bright, too, but it doesn't give any light at all. The light from the Mooncomes from the Sun.The Moon looks much bigger and brighter than the other stars. But in fact(实际上) all the other stars are much bigger and brighter than the Moon.They look smaller than the Moon because they are farther away from the Earth.18．When our part of the Earth turns to the Sun, it is _____.A．day B．night C．sunny D．cloudy 19．The Moon sometimes looks big because _____.A．it isn't the biggest among the starsB．it is the biggest among the starsC．it is much closer to the EarthD．it can give strong light20．Which is the most important to us?A．The Sun.B．The Moon.C．The stars.D．None of the above.21．Which of the following sentences is right?A．The Moon moves round the Sun and the Earth.B．The Sun is much nearer to us than the Moon.C．When our part of the Earth turns away from the Sun, it is day.D．When our part of the Earth turns to the Sun, it is day.22．The title of the passage might be _____.A．The EarthB．The SunC．The Moon D．The Sun, the Moon and the EarthDThe sun is always shining. But it can only shine on one side of the earth at one time. When the sun is shining on one side of the earth, it is night on the other side.At night, you can see the stars (星星). The stars are in the sky all day. But the light from the sun is so bright that you can't see them. When night comes, there is no light, and the stars are bright enough to see. The stars look very small. But some of them are even bigger than the sun. They look small because they are so far away from you. Big things look much smaller when they are far away. The sun is closer (近) to the earth than other stars, so it looks bigger.23．When it is night, the sun _____.A．doesn't shineB．shines for a short timeC．disappears (消失)D．shines on the other side of the earth24．We can't see the stars in the sky at d aytime (白天) because _____.

But they are not real stars. They are man-made satellites. And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS).From May to July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth. And people can see it with their eyes during the time.The scientists want to live on the ISS. They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there.When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the most expensive program. Billions of dollars are spent on it every year.Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping-stone for future exploration. "The ISS will be more useful some day. The ISS will help us understand the human body better, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better." said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist.Sixteen countries are part of the space program: the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, Brazil, and 11 European countries. China isn't an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. In 2003, China sent some rice upto the ISS to find out what space would do to it.28．From the first paragraph, we can learn _____.A．we can't see the ISS with our eyesB．March is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earthC．all the moving stars are real starsD．the biggest man-made satellite is the ISS29．Which do the scientists think is the best way to learn more about space?

I'm sure you will answer it is blue. But I'm afraid that you are wrong. The sky has no color. When we see blue, we are looking at the blue sunlight. The sunlight is shining on the little bits of dust in the air.Is the sky full of air? I'm sure that you have been asked this question, too. We know that there is air all around the world. We could not breathe(呼吸)without air. Planes could not fly without air. They need air to lift their wings. If we go far enough away from the earth, then we will find there is no air.Perhaps we can answer some of our questions now. What is the sky? It is all around the world. The sky is space. In space there is nothing except the sun, the moon and the stars.32．What color is the sky in fact?A．It is blue.B．It is white.C．It is colorful.D．It is colorless.33．What is the sky?A．It is air.B．It is space.C．It is nothing but stars.D．It is the sun and the moon. 34．When people go far enough away from the earth, they will find that_____.A．the sky is full of airB．there is no airC．there is air all around the worldD．people need air to fly planes35．Which is NOT true?A．When we are looking at the sunlight, we think the sky has no color.

In it there is nothing except the sun, the moon and the stars.D．The sunlight is shining on the little bits of dust in the air.FAll Eyes on MarsMars is the fourth planet( 行星) from the sun. Scientists are now watching it. And now three little spacecraft are studying it. They are taking pictures. Three more are traveling around in the sky, high above Mars. All six are working to find the planet’s past. Did anything ever live on Mars?All living things can’t live without water. Is there any water on Mars? On September 29th, scientists had big news. One spacecraft named Phoenix found snow high in the sky on Mars. Snow comes from water. And Phoenix also found ice before. But they can’t find any signs of life. Scientists wantto explore more later. In 2009, space scientists planned to send a larger rover called the Mars Science Laboratory.Someday scientists hope to send a robot to get rocks and return them to Earth. People could study the rocks, and learn more about the planet. Can people land on Mars? No one knows. Before people land on it, machines can do the exploring work.37．How many little spacecraft are studying Mars and taking pictures? A．Six.B．Three.C．Four.D．Five. 38．What are all six spacecraft working to do?A．To study.B．To travel.C．To land on Mars.D．To find the Mars' past.39．Who found snow high in the sky on Mars?A．Scientists.B．Phoenix.C．Robot.D．Rover. 40．What does “spacecraft” probably mean in the first paragraph?A．宇宙飞船B．宇航员C．机器人D．火星车41．Which of the following is TRUE?A．There is life on Mars.B．People can live without water on Mars.C．There is snow on Mars.D．There isn’t water on Mars.GThe first living things which were sent into space and returned safely to the Earth were not people, but dogs. They were called Belka and Strelka. They were sent up in a rocket by the former Soviet Union（前苏联）in August 1960. In April 1961, Yuri Gagarin became the first human to go into space. He also became the first person to complete an orbit of the Earth（完成绕地球一周）. He was sent up into space by the former Soviet Union spacecraft Vostok 1.He stayed in space for an hour and 4 minutes. A month later, Allan Shepard became the first American in space, when he made a brief 15-minute flight. John Glenn became the first American astronaut to complete an orbit of the Earth, which he achieved in 1962.Other firsts followed quickly:Valentina Tereshkova on Vostok 6 was the first woman in space in 1963.The Russian（俄国）Alexei Leonov was the first person to walk in space in 1965. In the same year, Ed White became the first American to walk in space. On July 21st, 1969, Armstrong, an American astronaut took the first human steps on the Moon.42．The first living things returned safely from space were _____.A．monkeys B．Russian astronautsC．Russian dogs D．American dogs43．John Glenn was the first _____.A．person in space B．American in spaceC．man on the Moon D．American to orbit the Earth 44．The first space walk was _____.A．made in 1963B．made by Ed WhiteC．made by Alexei Leonov D．part of project45．_____ was the first human to walk on the Moon.A．Armstrong B．Valentina TereshkovaC．Alexei Leonov D．Yuri Gagarin46．The best title for the passage is _____.A．Man walked on the Moon B．The firsts in spaceC．How to get to the Moon D．Astronauts in space。
