This proverb means that good neighbours respect one another’s property. As long as neighbours mindtheir own business, they will get along fine. Good farmers, for example, maintain their fences in order to keep their livestock from wandering onto neighbouring farms.2. Jack and I have been roommates and friends for four years. We have been through many experiences together, learning and playing together, and there seems to be no border between us.3. Difficult neighbours refer to those who are not easy to get along with, to deal with or to put up with, when a dispute arises.4. The Bible says: “Love thy neighbour.” But in real life situations, loving one’s neighbour as oneself can be very difficult.5. We build fences to keep our dog in our own yard and not in our neighbour’s. Folks well off enough to have a swimming pool build a fence around it to keep outsiders out — and safe.6. But we build too many fences and walls — walls in our personal lives,walls in our churches, walls in our community and nation. So we have walls of hostility, anger, judgment, indifference, and isolation.7. A warm and cordial relationship between neighbours can greatly increase the chances of a peaceful resolution. A warm and cordial relationship between neighbours can greatly increase the chances of a peaceful resolution.8. Some people say that good fences make bad neighbours and others say good lawyers make bad neighbours.9. There might be a time when you share a room with another person. Keep in mind that unfamiliar situations and stress will cause a person to act differently.10. It is true that we all need to be good roommates. Students and residents need to respect each other, in and out of the university.11. Being a good neighbour means working together to win together. Helping your fellow neighbour without expecting something in return is being a good neighbour.12. A 60-year-old woman was arrested last week and charged with attempted murder, for she poisoned a dog of her next-door neighbour.13. A man lived in a house that was separated from a next-door neighbour by a hedge. He allowed the hedge to grow to a towering height, blockingout all the sun in the neighbour’s yard. The neighbour tried to communicateabout the problem, but was met with a wall of silence and quickly closed doors.14. My father is being sued by his neighbour for building up a 6-foot-tall wood fence between his neighbour’s property and his own. There was anexisting 4-foot-tall wood fence, but my father decided to tear that down and put up a new one. The result is: good fences make bad neighbours.15. My housemates and I were fined $70 last month because there was trash in front of our house. The worst part about it is that it wasn’t our trash.16. My next-door neighbour is not only mean but noisy; she often plays her stereos loud enough to wake up the whole community.17. A man known as the “most annoying neighbour” went before a jury for the first time last Tuesday on charges of littering in his home’s yard.Neighbours have complained about the piles of junk and rats in his yard for more than 10 years.18. When some neighbours complained about the loud noise that my classmates made on weekends, the university quickly adopted a new noise policy that restricted some traditional events held on weekends. 19. There are good neighbours and bad neighbours, both students and non-students, that live around the campus.

Every year in the US, the Good Neighbour Awards are given to about 2,000 winners who have made extraordinary commitments to improving the quality of life in their communities.21. We hope to show the world the neighbour’s virtues and to inspire peoplearound the country to contribute to their communities.22. Indonesia and Australia are neighbours, whether we like it or not. Between neighbours, there are always ups and downs. Sometimes we have very good and excellent relations and at other times we may have some problems— this is just normal between neighbours.Unit6Find keepers1.“Finders keepers, losers weepers” means a person who finds somethingcan keep it,and the loser has no right to it.Today this proverb is of dubious ethical merit.2. “Finders keepers, losers weepers” is believed to be an old Scottishproverband while it may be common in some places,it is not law.It is folk wisdom.3. According to a legal casebook,the principle that the finder of an object has the propriety right against the true owner goes back to an English case in 1722.4. In most instances,the principle of “Finders keepers”translates into victory for thefinder,simply because no one else can demonstrate true ownership to the satisfaction of a court.5. In a hospital in Taiwan,Mr. Wang, a devout Buddhist, found a wallet on top of a payphone.He promptly took it to the reception desk.When asked why he did that, he simply said:“It is my duty and belief that made me do it.”6. Robert, aged 44, from Glasgow, had no thought of hanging on to the wallet he found,despite living on income support.He said: “I am a miner’s son and was a Sunday school teacher.Honesty is second nature to me.”7. A wallet was spotted by a boy out shopping with his mother and sister in Thailand.The mother quickly stuffed the wallet into her trousers,grabbed both children and hurried to catch a bus.8. Shannon Hill was a student in North Carolina,doing three jobs to pay for her tuition, food and rent.When she found a wallet, her first thought was, I could really use this money.But then she saw a picture of a baby in the wallet and changed her mind. Someone else needed it more, she thought.9. Andrew, 26, a TV production student in Glasgow,had just ￡10 to buy food for the week.Yet when he found a watch in a supermarket, he went to hand it in.He explained: “It might have sentimental value.I lost my watch and never got it back.”10. Mary, a little girl in a pink floral dress,found a wallet on a bench in a Seattle amusement park.She ran to her father, who immediately handed it back to her.“You must take this to someone who can help find the owner,” he said.“You must take this to someone who can help find the owner,” he said.The nine-year-old took her dad’s hand and they went off to find the parkoffice.11. In some countries,if you pick up a wallet containing a handsome amount of money that does not belong to you,and you keep it, you won’t really be prosecuted.But your action is considered by many as a theft.12. A lawyer explains that a person is guilty of theftif he dishonestly takes property belonging to anotherwith the intention of permanently depriving the other of it.13. People argue that if you believe that keeping the money you find is acceptableand other people would do the same, then you are not dishonest.14. A lost and found (American English),or lost property (British English) office,is one in a large public buildingor area where visitors can go to retrieve lost articlesthat may have been found by other visitors.15. Frequently found at museums, amusement parks and schools,a lost and found office will typically be a clearly-marked boxor room in a location near the main entrance.16. Some lost and found offices will try to contact the owners of any lost itemsif there are any personal identifiers available.Practically all will either sell,give or throw away items after a certain period has passed to clear their storage.17. Lost and found offices at large organizations can handle a large and varied collection of articles.Transport for London’s lost property offices (which handle items lost on the city’s tube,buses and taxis) handles over 130,000 items a year,including 24,000 bags and 10,000 mobile phones.18. In China, the law clearly stipulatesthat lost property should be returned to its rightful owner.Those who find a misplaced article should inform the owner or the person who lost it,or hand it in to relevant authorities, within 20 days of the property being found.19. Those who offer a reward for returned property should pay up as agreed. Lost property reverts to the State if nobody claims it.But some people say it goes against the traditional Chinese virtue of“returning to the owner what one has picked up (拾金不昧).”20. Some Chinese finders feel it is their right to keep property of little value.For more valuable property they thinkthey have the right to claim a certain amount as a handling fee,and would expect to receive a reward.21. A young security guard from the countryside, who earned only 300 yuana month,found a wallet containing 80,000 yuan in cash and other valuables whilst on duty,and took the trouble to return the wallet to its owner.The young man refused to accept the 5,000-yuan reward offered by the owner.22. The website is a research tool which allows you to find people,things or information through a system of classifieds.Because of its easy and ambitious principle, allows you to find anyone or anything, anywhere.UNIT 7The Skeptical Mind1. Having a skeptical mind means keeping an open mind and basing your beliefs far as possible, on the total available evidence.2. You believe that everything is “explainable” in principle, and the only difference between a miracle and a natural phenomenon is that you are not able yet to explain the former in natural terms.3. Skepticism is essentially a way of evaluating other people’s beliefs and forming your own.4. Skeptics believe that in matter of the intellect, we ought to follow our reason so far as it is possible.Skepticism does not necessarily preclude belief in God or an afterlife. It may be true that most skeptics are atheists and doubt the possibility of an afterlife.5. It is a mistake to think that we ought to either believe in God or not believe in God because of the psychological benefits of doing so.缺少6789. Being a skeptic means being a mature adult who take responsibility for his or her own life and who makes his or her own judgement.10. Sometime people’s opinion are influenced by the media and by what is said over and over again.There are few filter that separate reliable information from false and misleading data.11. The Internet is quickly growing into the largest and most complex web of information our world has ever known.12. We are presented with piles upon piles of ideas, claims and unusual phenomenawithout a tool kit to help us sort out the good from the bad.13. Skepticism is a primary tool of science, but unbridled disbelief is a threat to the development of science.14. However, it must be admitted that our actual knowledge of natural laws is imperfect and limited, so that the belief in the existence of basic all-embracing laws in Nature also rests on a sort of faith.15. Apollo was the name given to any of a series of manned U.S. spacecraft designed to explore the Moon and surrounding space.16. On July 16,1969, the crew of Apollo 11-Neil Armstrong, Mike Collins, and Buzz Aldrin-headed off to attempt the first lunar landing.17. In April 1970 Apollo 13 almost ended tragically when an oxygen tank inside the service module exploded.18. On 19th December 1972 the return of the astronauts aboard Apollo 17 after the 6th successful Moon landing marked the end of the Apollo era.19. Over the past thirty years, many people have been persuaded that the Apollo missions never actually took place and therefore represent the largest hoax in history.20. It would be quite easy for me to state that the people who believe that the Apollo Moon landings were faked are wrong or just mad.21. My present interest in Apollo is historical I love the details of how and why the Apollo spacecraft worked as well as the details of the lunar exploration.22. I watch astronauts carrying out experiments, picking up Moon rocks, taking pictures and so forth, especially during the last few flights to the Moon.23. But it wasn’t until later that I really understood how and why they would pick a particular rock to sample or crater to visit.。

Re c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a oUnit Three The Skeptical MindPart A Pre-listening Task (I)Listen to the facts and opinions about The Skeptical Mind twice and fill in the blanks with the words you hear from the recording. Pay attention to the sentence structures that you might find useful in your discussions.Facts and OpinionsNotedPreclude n. 排除Atheist n.无神论者1. Having a skeptical mind means keeping an open mind and basing your beliefs, so far as possible, on the total available evidence.2. You believe that everything is “explainable” in principle, and the only difference between a miracle and a natural phenomenon is that you are not able yet to explain the former in natural terms.3. Skepticism is essentially(本质上) a way of evaluating other people’s beliefsand forming your own.4. Skeptics believe that in matter of the intellect(智力), we ought to follow ourreason so far as it is possible.5. Skepticism does not necessarily preclude belief in God or an afterlife. It maybe true that most skeptics are atheists and doubt the possibility of an afterlife.6. It is a mistake to think that we ought to either believe in God or not believe in God because of the psychological benefits of doing so.7. Being a skeptic means being a mature adult who take responsibility for hisor her own life and who makes his or her own judgments.8. Sometime people’s opinions are influenced by the media and by what is saidover and over again.9. Skepticism is a primary tool of science, but unbridled(不受控制的,放纵的) disbelief is a threat to the development of science.10. However , it must be admitted that our actual knowledge of natural laws isimperfect and limited, so that the belief in the existence of basic all-embracing(包括一切的;包罗万象) laws in Nature also rests(倚靠) on a sort of faith.11. Apollo was the name given to any of a series of manned U.S. spacecraftdesigned to explore the Moon and surrounding space.Re c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a o 12. On July l6, 1969, the crew of Apollo II-Neil Armstrong, Mike Collins, and Buzz Aldrin-headed off to attempt the first lunar landing.13. In April 1970 Apollo l3 almost ended tragically when an oxygen tank inside the service module exploded.14. On 19th December 1972 the return of the astronauts aboard Apollo l7 after the 6th successful Moon landing marked the end of the Apollo era.15. Over the past thirty years, many people have been persuaded that theApollo missions never actually took place and therefore represent the largest hoax in history.16. It would be quite easy for me to state that the people who believe that the Apollo Moon landings were faked are wrong or just mad.17. My present interest in Apollo is historical I love the details of how and why the Apollo spacecraft worked as well as the details of the lunar exploration.18. I watch astronauts carrying out experiments, picking up Moon rocks, taking pictures and so forth, especially during the last few flights to the Moon.19. But it wasn’t until later that I really understood how and why they wouldpick a particular rock to sample or crater(火山口) to visit.20. The Internet is quickly growing into the largest and most complex web ofinformation our world has ever known.21. There are few filters that separate reliable information from false and misleading data.22. We are presented with piles upon piles of ideas, claims and unusual phenomena without a tool kit to help us sort out the good from the bad.Part A Pre-listening Task (II)Pair/ Group Work - Additional question for discussion1. Do you think a skeptical attitude is important in scientific research? Why orwhy not?2. Are you a skeptical person? Give an example to show that you are or aren'ta skeptical person?3. Do you chat with strangers on a train when going home during the vacationin order to kill time? What kind of persons do you choose to talk to?4. What are the topics that you like to talk about with strangers on a train?Sample1. Do you think a skeptical attitude is important in scientific research? Why or why not?In my opinion, a skeptical attitude is not only important but also necessary in scientific research. Every discovery and every new theory must have a reason to exist and can be explained in a scientific way. For example, British scientist Isaac Newton had doubts about Kepler's discoveries about the universe, because Kepler's theory could not answer some basic questions, such as: "What keeps the planets in their elliptical(椭圆的) orbits?Re c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a o On our spinning (旋转) Earth what prevents objects from flying away when they are thrown in the air? What keeps you from being hurled off (用力投掷) the spinning Earth?”With these questions in mind, Newton stated out to find the truth and in the end he discovered the Law of Gravity. (万有引力定律)2. Are you a skeptical person? Give an example to show that you are or aren't a skeptical person?Yes, I am a skeptical person to some extent. Take global warming for example, scientists say the Earth is turning hotter and hotter. Then I would not just take what scientists said for granted and I would ask why. I would compare the weather data collected about l0 year ago with the data of today. I would try to find out the reasons that caused the increase of the earth average temperature during these years. If the high level of carbon (碳) dioxide (二氧化物) emitted (发出) by major industrial countries is the main cause, I would probably join or support the international efforts to curb(限制) the emission(排放) of it into the atmosphere(大气).3. How much do you know about the Moon, such as its orbit, diameter , temperature and surface?The Moon is a natural satellite of the Earth, visible by reflection of sunlight and having a slightly elliptical orbit, approximately 356,000 kilometers (221,600 miles) distant at perigee (（月球等轨道的）近地点) and 406,997 kilometers (252,950 miles) at apogee(距地心最远的一点). Its mean diameter(直径) is 3,475 kilometers (2,l60 miles), its mass approximately one eightieth that of the Earth, and its average period of revolution(革命;彻底改变;旋转;运行，公转) around the Earth 29 days l2 hours 44 minutes as calculated with respect to(相对于) the sun.Part BListening Task(A)Notesswirl v. 纷乱地流传hoax n.骗局conspiracy n. 阴谋X-Files (X-档案) (美国科幻电视剧名)Mitch Pileggi (人名)Bill Kaysing (人名)testimony n. 证据，证明，证言Nevada n. 内华达州studio n. 摄影棚blundering a. 笨拙的Re c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a o constellation n. 星座discrepancy n. 差异，不一致immortal a. 不朽的Reference1. Background InformationConspiracy theorists (阴谋论) like Bill Kaysing and Ralph Rene claim that the Apollo Moon landings were a hoax. On 15 February and 19 March 2001 the Fox TV network aired a program called "Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon?", hosted by "X-Files" actor Mitch Pileggi, that rehearsed (排演) these claims. Guests on the show argued that NASA technology in the 1960s wasn't up to the task of a real Moon landing. Instead, anxious to win the Space Race any way it could, NASA acted out the Apollo program in movie studios. Thesuggestive (引起联想的) scenes in films like "Diamonds Are Forever" (1971) and "Capricorn (摩羯座) One" (1978) helped establish the Moon Hoax theme in American popular culture. The best rebuttal (反驳) to allegations(指控) of a "Moon Hoax," however, is common sense. Evidence that the Apollo program really happened is compelling(引人入胜的).2.

Conspiracy Theory…speculation concerning the existence of an agreement to perform together an illegal (不合法的) or unofficial actionDid We Land on the Moon?Last week my phone rang. It was my mother and she was very upset."Tony!" she exclaimed, "I just came from the coffee shop and there's a guy down there who says NASA never landed on the Moon. Everyone was talking about it ... I just didn't know what to say!"That last bit was hard to swallow, I thought. Mom's never at a loss for words.Re c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a o But even more incredible was the controversy that swirled through the small town and places like it across the country. After a long absence, the "Moon Hoax" was back.All the debates about the Moon landing began on Thursday, February 15, 2001 when the Fox Television network aired a program called "Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon?" It was re-aired on March 19. The program was hosted by "X-Files" actor Mitch Pileggi. The program was an hour long, and featured interviews with a series of people who believe that NASA faked the Apollo Moon landings in the 1960s and 1970s. The biggest voice in this is Bill Kaysing, who claims to have all sorts of hoax evidence, including pictures taken by the astronauts, engineering details, discussions of physics and even some testimony by astronauts themselves. The program's conclusion was that the whole thing was faked in the Nevada desert. According to them, NASA technology in the 1960s did not have the technical capability of going to the Moon. Instead, anxious to win the Space Race any way it could, NASA acted out the Apollo program in movie studios. Neil Armstrong's historic first steps on another world, the Moon vehicle and the American flag -- it was all a fake! Fortunately the Soviets didn't think it was a hoax. Otherwise, they could have filmed their own fake Moon landings and really embarrassed the free world. According to the show, NASA was a blundering (笨拙的) movie producer thirty years ago. The hoax believers pointed out a lot of discrepancies (差异, 分歧) in Apollo imagery. For example, pictures of astronauts transmitted from the Moon don't include stars in the dark lunar sky -- an obvious production error! What happened? Did NASA film-makers forget to turn on the constellations?Here's another one. Pictures of Apollo astronauts erecting (直立的) a US flag on the Moon show the flag bending and waving. How can that be? After all, there's no breeze on the Moon ..."One small step for man, one giant leap(跳跃, 飞跃) for mankind." These immortal (不朽的) words were spoken when American astronaut Neil Armstrong first set foot on the Moon in 1969. Or did he?Questions I.:Listen to the story and choose the right answers to each questions you hear.1. Why was the speaker's mother at a loss for words at the beginning?A.

People ’s disbelief in the Moon landing program of about 30 years ago.4. Why did NASA fake the Moon landings in the 1960s and 1970s according to the passage?A. Because NASA failed in many of its attempts to land on the Moon.B. Because NASA was controlled by a group of conspirators then/C.

"One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." These immortalwords were spoken when American astronaut Neil Armstrong first set foot on the Moon in 1969. Or did he?Speaking Task (I)You have just heart a passage about the Moon landing that happened during the time between 1969 and 1972. What is your opinion of the Apollo mission? Are you skeptical after listening to the text? Exchange views with your partner. You may to cover the following points in your discussion.1. When and how did the upsetting debate start?2. What was the theme of the program aired by the Fox Television?3. What were the two discrepancies in the pictures of the Apollo mission?4. What do you think of the arguments put forward by the hoax believers? Are you skeptical about NASA ’s Moon Landing? Give your reasons.The argument began on Thursday, February 15, 2001 when the Fox Television network aired a program called "Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon?" It was replayed on March 19. The argument was put forward by some conspiracy theorists, including BiII Kaysing. Kaysing claimed on TV that NASA's Apollo Moon missions were a giant hoax. During the 1960s and 1970s, NASA was so anxious to win the space race with the Soviet Union that faked all the Apollo Moon missions and fabricated(虚构) the films and photos of the Moon landings in a film studio.The program also showed some discrepancies in the Moon landing photos. One of the discrepancies is that the photos don't include stars in the dark lunar sky. The other one is that the American flag erected by the US astronauts was fluttering and bending. How could the flag wave on the Moon since there is no breeze there?In my opinion, this TV program was like a nuclear bomb. The Fox Television network is one of the major news agencies in the US and most people tend to believe what it says. If it said that the whole Apollo Moon landing was a big hoax, then people would tend toRe c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a o believe it. This indicates that people are generally gullible(易受骗的) about what is said in the media. So l think the merit of this program is to make people think for themselves and help them reach their own conclusions based on the evidence.As for me, I don't think the Apollo Moon landing was a hoax. I have made this judgment on common sense and on the evidence that the astronauts brought back some Moon rocks. As the saying goes, seeing is believing. But in many cases, we can not see what is happening elsewhere in the world with our own eyes. Anyway, people should have the right to know the truth and should be skeptical about what is said in the media.

R ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a oUnit Four UFOsPart A Pre-listening Task (I)Listen to the facts and opinions about UFOs twice and fill in the blanks with the words you hear from the recording. Pay attention to the sentence structures that you might find useful in your discussions. Facts and OpinionsNotedsaucer n.碟子scripture n. 经文chariot n. 战车Stonehenge 英国Salisbury 平原上的史前巨石柱Atlantis 传说沉没于大西洋中的帝国abduct v. 绑架extraterrestrial a. 地球外的1. UFOs stand for Unidentified Flying Objects. Some people also call them flying saucers, because their shapes look like saucers.2. In its broader sense, the UFO includes any object or light, reportedly sighted in the sky, that cannot be immediately explained by the observer.3. I remember as a child, I would save every penny my mother gave me to buy the latest UFO magazines from the grocery store.4. We can not deny the existence of the UFO phenomenon simply because we have notseen it or can not explain it.5. Science has its limitations and many mysteries throughout the world have remained unsolved.6. Sightings of unusual aerial phenomena date back to ancient times.7. The early cave paintings and ancient scriptures seem to indicate that we may have had visitors from other worlds or planets in the past.8. In fact, ancient scriptures from many different cultures would give us the impression that we've had visitors from outer space.9. How do you explain ancient tales of chariots from the sky? And what are flying ships appearing in science fiction novels before the first plane was ever thought about?10. Even the Bible has been suggested as possible evidence of alien contact, for its numerous accounts of objects in the sky, and other strange events.11. What secrets lie with ancient Egypt, Stonehenge, or possibly even Atlantis? Have there indeed been more advanced civilizations of man that have somehow been lost?12. Some UFO enthusiasts even claim to have been abducted and taken aboard UFOs.R ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a o But so far, no one has produced scientifically acceptable proof of these claims.13. Some people believe that UFOs are extraterrestrial spacecraft, even though no scientifically valid evidence supports that belief. 14. Scientists speculate that intelligent life may well exist elsewhere in the universe.15. In addition to many reports and sightings of UFOs, observers have provided photographs or even videos.16. UFOs became widely discussed only after the first widely publicized U.S. sighting in 1947. Many thousands of such observations have since been reported worldwide.17. From 1947 to 1969 the U.S. Air Force investigated UFOs as a possible threat tonational security.18. A total of 12,618 reports were received, of which 701 or 5.6 percent were listed asunexplained.19. Since 1969 no agency of the U.S. government has had any active program of UFO investigation.20. In 1997 the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) admitted that the U.S. military had deceived the American public in an effort to hide information about high-altitude spy planes.21. At least 90 percent of UFO sightings can be identified as conventional objects, although time-consuming investigations are often necessary for such identification. 22. The objects most often mistaken for UFOs are bright planets and stars, aircraft, birds, balloons, kites, aerial flares, peculiar clouds, meteors, and satellites.Part A Pre-listening Task (II)Pair/ Group Work - Additional question for discussion1. It is reported that UFOs are alien spaceships from outer space. What do youthink?2. Do you believe in the existence of UFOs? Why or why not?3. Can science explain the UFO phenomenon? Give reasons.Sample1. It is reported that UFOs are alien spaceships from outer space. What do youthink?Since man first started looking up into the skies he saw things he couldn't explain. So the term "Unidentified Flying Object" has come into being and has become a synonym to most people for "Alien Spaceship." Usually the explanation is less extraordinary than a flying saucer manned by visitors from other worlds. Often a weather balloon or natural phenomenon is the cause. However, there are cases on record where no good common explanation was ever found. I think the day would come when this phenomenon will be explained in a scientific and convincing way.2. Do you believe in the existence of UFOs? Why or why not?Since UFOs can not be fully explained by scientists, it is indeed not fair for us common people to deny or believe in the existence of UFOs. Personally I don't believe the storyR ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a o that aliens have visited earth or they have been making strange formed shapes in crop fields. I ’ve also heard a lot of strange sightings of UFOs and alien spaceships being shot out of the sky. Recently some Mexican air pilots were reported to have spotted a fleet of spacecraft and they even took photos of them. But unfortunately , these photos are not clear enough to show that they are really flying saucers from outer space3. Can science explain the UFO phenomenon? Give reasons.So far as I know , science has not reached that stage where UFOs can be explained with satisfactory and convincing theory and with substantial evidence. Scientists around the world and even the U.S. Air Force spent considerable amount of time and money investigating the phenomenon, but so far they haven't produced any convincing reports that can explain or support the existence of UFOs. Surely there are lots of UFO photos and sightings, but most of them are either blurry or they are forged by some mischievous persons. However, I do believe that some day we will be able to explain this phenomenon just as we have explained the workings of cloning technology.Part BListening Task(A)NotesFranksville (地名)Wisconsin 威斯康星州emanate v. 散发，发出accelerate v. 加速frantic a. 狂乱的，疯狂的illuminate v. 照明，照亮fearsome a. 可怕的hover v. 盘旋diameter n. 直径in the wake of ... 紧跟在... ...的后面enigma n. 谜，不可思议的东西eerie a. 怪异的， 怪诞的aluminum n. 铝cone n. 锥形物protrude v. 突出underside n. 下面，底面ponder v. 沉思，考虑driveway n. 私人车道Referencel. Background InformationUFOs have been around a long time. One of the earliest accounts of a flyingR ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a o saucer sighting was recorded over 3,400 years ago in the annals of the Egyptian Pharaoh Thutmose III. In the papyrus documents is a description of a group of fiery circles that were seen in the sky over the pharaoh's army. If aliens have been visiting the earth for thousands of years, maybe at some point they had given us a helping hand.The modem age of UFO culture began on June 24, 1947 when pilot Kenneth Arnold witnessed a formation of silver disks skipping through the air over Mount Rainier. His report was widely circulated by the print and radio media, sparking interest in UFOs around the world. Just two weeks later, another event took place in New Mexico. That was the famous Roswell incident, in which a flying saucer supposedly crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. ClA immediately dispatched a team to investigate the incident and kept it a secret ever since. Some witnesses said the U.S. government not only recovered debris from the crashed saucer but also four or five alien bodies. In September 1994, the U.S. Air Force released a new report on that Roswell incident that concluded that the debris found in New Mexico in 1947 probably came from a once top-secret balloon operation, Project Mogul, designed to monitor the atmosphere for evidence of Soviet nuclear tests. Now the UFO phenomenon may be at least a half century old, if not longer, and UFO sightings become more frequent In 1990, the International UFO Congress was founded and is held annually worldwide. At each conference, serious UFO researchers, observers and enthusiasts convene to discuss the UFO phenomenon. For the details of the Congress, please refer to the listening passage in Part D -- Home Listening (2).2. It was one a.m. one cold fal 1 night...It was one a.m. on a cold night in autumn...3.

I was 21 then, and was coming home from a date. I had just dropped off my girlfriend and was heading back to Franksville, a rural town in Wisconsin. As I turned left to go east on Seven Mile Road, I saw extremely bright lights streaming out from the distance.My heart skipped a beat(心停止跳动). What was producing these strange lights visible from a half mile away? I thought it was a house on fire. The lightsR ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a o seemed to emanate(散发) from the area where my house was located. My parents and two brothers were probably in bed by now. As I accelerated and turned onto the town street, frantic(疯狂的) thoughts ran through my mind. Was the house burning down? Was my family trapped(陷入) inside?As I raced toward my house, I noticed that the yards of my house and my neighbors' were illuminated(照明，照亮) as if it were day. Then I saw the source of the strange light. It wasn't a house fire, as I had feared. It was a possibility I would have never anticipated(预期), one that was perhaps even more fearsome than the house fire I had imagined.Hovering motionless(一动 th 不动,静止) only 50 feet above the rooftops was a strange object. Round and silvery, it was approximately 300-400 feet in diameter. In the wake of the hovering(盘旋) enigma(不可思议的东西), there was an eerie silence. I stuck my head out the driver's side window to get a closer look at what I guessed was some kind of aircraft.It looked made of aluminum(铝), except for two cones(锥形物) that protruded(突出) from the top and bottom of the craft's center. Both cones seemed to be made of a glass-like material. The top cone was white, while the bottom cone glowed yellow. White lights circled the yellow cone on the underside of the craft. Each light was about 3-4 feet in diameter.It didn't look like any conventional(惯例的) aircraft I had ever seen. It looked like a flying saucer from a movie. Was this what an alien spaceship truly looked like?I pondered(沉思，考虑) what to do. If I pulled into the driveway I would be putting myself directly beneath(在 ... 之下) the craft. I considered turning the car around and speeding away.Questions I.:Listen to the story and decide whether the follwoign statement are true or false.

Dr Coleman started his sabbatical leave on a farm in Canada, hundreds of miles from his college. Getting up at 4:30each morning, working thirteen hours a day in fields and barns, he prepared himself physically for his next job, digging ditches, in Atlanta, Georgia, after that, the college president washed dishes in a boston restaurant, during the last ten days of his leave, he worked as a garbage collector.This unusual sabbatical leave was conducted in great secrecy. Coleman telephoned his family once a week,'just to let some know where i was andthat i was healthy.' none of his students or co-workers at Haverford College knew what their president was doing. on each job he avoided letting people know who he was. 'when people would ask me about myself, i'd try to turn the conversation back to them,' he explained. 'some co-workers might have thought i was a little different, a little quiet maybe, but i doubt anyone knew i was a college president.'there was only one employer who sensed something unusual. 'at a restaurant in boston, i had been on the job exactly one hour-- i was washing dishes--when the boss came over and said,'I'm afraid you won't do.' and handed me two dollars. immediately i asked him why, but he just said,' it's not your work. sorry.'that was the frist time in more than thirty years as a job holder that Coleman had heard such words. it helped him understand how a man of his age might feel when he suddenly realizeed he had lost his job.after two months of working with his hands,Coleman returned from his unusual sabbatical leave, convinced that the experience had been worthwhile. he had some good things to say about people who do hard physical work.'a lot of my co-workers would complain when they was too heavy,' he said, 'but they'd complain a lot more when there was nothing to do.'he found that pride and satisfaction came chiefly in the form of praise from co-workers. even though pay was important, what brought the greatest satisfaction was known that someone had noticed how a job was being done.at the end of the sabbatical leave Dr Coleman felt that his time had been well spent. he now believes that every young person should be required to spend at least half a year in the world of work before starting university studies.Unit 3The life story of Ernest HemingwayDr Chu and His superconductorPablo picassoUnit 4a conversation sleeping habitsPART A Sleeping HabitsWoman good morning, sir.Man Er, good morning.Woman i wonder if you'd like to answer a few questions.Man well er...Woman we're doing a market survey.Man that depends, what sorts of questions are they, eh?Woman well, it's questions about your sleeping habits.Man sleeping habits?Woman Mm.Man well, i suppose that's all right. yes , well, what do you want to know?Woman right, Um, what would you do if you heard a strange noise in the middle of the night?Man i'd wonder what it was, er, i suppose, and then i'd um, see if it happened again.Woman Mm.Man i would lie awake a little while. waiting to see if it happened again, and if it did ----i suppose i'd get up...Woman Mm.Man and go and see what it was.Woman very , if you, if you can't get to sleep at night, er, what do you, what do you dohave you a special methodMan well, i generally go to sleep straight away. i don't have any trouble getting to sleep.Woman Mm.Man well. if i do have... occasionally, happens about once every six months, i suppose, that i can't go to sleep and then i, er, i lie awake and i, um, think about things.Woman Mm, Mm. think about things. and, er, what about before going to bed what do you do before you go to bedMan well. i , it all depends, er. if i 've been out i, i, don't do anything. i just come home and go straight to bed. i clean my teeth, ha , ha.Woman Mm, good, good.Man that's one thing i do before i go to bed.

But nobody knowthis much about the inventor because on a Wednesday morning in February 1306 when Friar Giordano gave a sermon at a church in Florence, he said, ‘It is not yet twenty years since there was found the art of making eye-glasses which make for good vision.’ He also said, ‘I have seen the man who first invented and created it, and I have talked to him.’ We know Friar said this because admirers copied his sermons down as he gave them.The inventor of spectacles kept the method of making them to himself. Butthe idea soon got around. As early as 1300, craftsmen in Venice were only shaped for far-sighted people. The lenses for short-sighted people were not developed until the late 15th century.Spectacles allowed people to go on reading and studying long after bad eyesight would normally have forced them to give up. They were like a new pair of eyes. Everyone thought the inventor of such a valuable thing should be honored. But for centuries no one had any idea who the inventor really was. So all kinds of candidates were put forward: Dutch, English, German, Italian. A fake memorial was erected last spectacles—but he never even existed!It is only recently that the researchers have dug back through the records, pushed away all the stories and legends, and they have found the man whose name they do not know and to whom Friar talked, probably lived in Pisa, nearly seven hundred years ago. One researcher wrote, ‘The world has found lenses on its nose without knowing whom to thank.’ Can you believe it?A new kind of contact lenses has recently been invented in America. Disposable contacts, as they come to be called, have hit the market after extended-wear contact lenses. Disposable contacts can be worn without being removed, then thrown away and replaced by a fresh pair. Dr Jack Hartstein, eye specialist at the Washington University, says: ‘If disposable lenses are worn properly, they are safer and more convenient than extended-wear lens es.’ He also says: ‘Many eye specialists are increasingly reluctant to prescribe extended-wear lenses.’ To allow oxygen to reach the cornea, the transparent out coat of the eyeball, extended-wear lenses contain up to 70 percent water. But the water also absorbs bacteria, irritants and protein which can result in cloudy vision, infection and cornea ulcers.Disposable lenses cost about $365 for the first year and $280 there-after, but competition will drive the price down. Extended-wear lenses range from approximately $150 to more than $400, but need replacing once or twice a year. Dr Hartstein estimates that users of disposable lenses will save at least $100 a year on cleansing solutions.

They are credited with aspecial ability to think and analyze, and with infinite patience in makingobservations and collecting data.

Scientists are also noted for their honesty. They place a highpremium on honesty largely because it is essential to their career. Everytheory they formulate is subjected to further testing. Every mistake or lie isbound to be found out. Therefore if any evidence is found contradicting theirideas, scientists do not suppress the evidence but modify or even abandon theirideas. In this way they havebuilt up an immense body of knowledge, which helpsus to understand better ourselves and the world around us.Key to Reading ActivityA1 c2 c3 a4 d 5d6 Behavioral:b,c,e,g,h,iMedical: a,d,fB1 c2 e3 a4 f5 g6 b7 d 8j 9 h 10 i1 serves youright2 precede3 data4 evaluate5 backs up6dramatically 7 radical 8 undergraduates 9 plainly 10 delivered第五册第六单元答案练习答案VocabularyI1 smoothly2 handicap3 for fear4 clumsy5 make a point of6 as a matter of course7 highlight8 took great delight in9 ill at ease10 adapt 11 role 12 oblivious 13 revolt 14 at the mercy of15 just as well 16 flightII1 departure2 clumsy3 ill at ease4 bump into5 handicap6 highlights7 takes great delight in 8 at the mercy of 9 for fear 10 oblivious to 11 role12 smoothly 13 sore 14 trapping 15 unloading 16 collapsedIII1 It took Bob about two weeks to adapthimself to his new job as sales manager.2 The manager’s secretary makes a point ofarriving at the office fifteen minutes early every morning.3 It’s just as well you didn’t comeyesterday, because we were away.4 The small grocer was at the mercy of thepeople he owed money to.5 Bank officials ask questions as a matterof course when someone wants to borrow money.6 It revolted me to learn that the worldspent so much money on arms while millions of people were dying of hunger.IV1 The highlight of the circus show was theperformance of the great panda, whose clumsy and funny movements amused all thespectators.2 It’s just as well you didn’t takes theSwiss Air fight yesterday—it crashed one hour after taking off and all the 229people on board were killed.3 It never occurred to him that handicappedgirl would feel ill at ease when anyone offered to help her.4 As a man who enjoyed being in control andwho took great delight in giving orders.5 In the past 12 years, Amy has learned tomanage by herself.

What are the significance/benefits of space exploration? 2. What are the potential dangers that astronauts face?3. Do you think the day will come when tourists can sit in a spaceship to goaround the world or to visit distant planets?4. Do you know any movie that describes the activities of space exploration?Talk about that movie if possible.Sample1. What are the significance/benefits of space exploration?At the end of the 50s of the last century, the United States and the former Soviet Union carried out space competition (注释：centered on lunar exploration), setting off the first space exploration upsurge (高涨). From 1958 to the end of August 1976, the two countries successfully launched 45 lunar probes (探测仪). In July 1969, the American Apollo spaceship realized the first human moon landing, making epoch-making (掀天揭地) achievement in lunar exploration. Through space exploration, esp ecially lunar probing (探索), we have greatly heightening human understanding of the moon, earth and solar systems, propelling (驱使) and bringing about a series of innovations (一系列的创新) and development in basic science, science and technology, forming a large batch (一批) of high-tech industrial groups and producing remarkable social-economic efficiency. 2. What are the potential dangers that astronauts face?There are many potential dangers involved in space ex ploration. Any mistakes or errors made by the spaceship designers and manufacturers would result a catastrophe (大灾难). Remember the explosion of the space shuttle Colombia? JustR e c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a othe tiny piece of metal broke off from the surface of the ship and that caused an explosion of it when re-entering the earth ’s atmosphere, killing all seven astronauts on board.Of cause there are other potential for the astronauts, such as weightlessness and harmful solar radiation. We know that long-time exposure to theultraviolet radiationwill lead to development of skin cancer .3. Do you think the day will come when tourists can sit in a spaceship to goaround the world or to visit distant planets?Yes. I think the day will soon come. On April 8, 2004, it was reported that the US government has issued the first license for a manned suborbital (亚轨道) rocket, a step toward opening commercial space flight for private individuals for the first time. The vehicle, named SpaceShipOne, will carry three passengers into space on a test flight. And the fare, I guess, will be less than $10 million.

Background InformationSpace exploration is our human response to curiosity about the earth, the moon, the planets, the sun and other stars, and the galaxies. Manned and unmanned space vehicles venture far beyond the boundaries of the earth to collect valuable information about the universe. Human beings have visited the moon and have lived in space stations for long periods. Space exploration helps us see the earth in its true relation to the rest of the universe. Such exploration could reveal how the sun, the planets, and theR e c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a ostars were formed and whether life exists beyond our own world.the space age began on Oct. 4, 1957. On that day, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik (later referred to as Sputnik 1), the first artificial satellite to orbit the earth. The first manned space flight was made on April 12. 1961. When Yuri Gagarin, a Soviet cosmonaut, orbited the earth in the spaceship Vostok (later called Vostok 1).2. ... the Russian space agency launched him and two Russian cosmonauts aboard a rocket …Tito first took the Soyuz spaceship for a journey to the International Space Station and then backed to the earth by landing in Siberia.3. cosmodrome The Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakstan. It was built during the time of the Soviet Union and now is well known as a Russian satellite and spaceship launching siteThe World's First Space Tourist (Part One)On May 6, 2001, Dennis Tito, a 61-year-old California millionaire and former NASA engineer, became the world's first paying space tourist when the Russian space agency launched him and two Russian cosmonauts aboard a rocket for a journey to the International Space Station.Tito and the crew blasted off (发射) from the cosmodrome in Kazakstan on time. Tito appeared calm, wearing a space suit and a smile. The trip by the Russian crew was almost delayed due to concerns expressed by NASA that the space station would get too crowded while an American crew did some necessary computer repairs. Fortunately for Tito, NASA said Friday that it had struck a deal (达成协议) with the Russian Space Agency, allowing him to launch on time without interrupting the American crew's work on the ailing International Space Station.Tito paid the Russian space agency $20 million to fly in space, but Russia's partners in the space station -- especially NASA -- objected, saying his lack of training would require additional safety measures.Tito has been training at the Star City, Russia space center, for a year, learning the details of a Soyuz spacecraft and practicing how to survive a landing in Siberia. Just days before the launch, he proclaimed that he was well prepared. He said, "The training is what counts and I've had a significant amount of training. And that, I think, coupled with my aerospace engineering background, puts me in a very strong position, as far as being able to function in space. "Tito has no duties during the mission. He told reporters: "I'm not a fighter pilot, I'm a businessman, and I want to be able to absorb as much of this experience and relate it to as many people as I can." He said he would take pictures and tell people about the experience upon his return. Tito says his launch aboard a Russian rocket and six-day stay on the International SpaceR e c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a oStation demonstrates that anyone can -- and should -- experience space.Questions 1.:Listen to the recording and write down short answers to the following questions.1. Where was Tito born?He was a 61-year-old American millionaire and former NASA engineer. 2. When did Tito first become fascinated with space travel? On May 6, 2001.3. How many cosmonauts were on board the Russian spaceship? There were altogether three cosmonauts on board.4. What did Tito wear?Tito wore a space suit and smile.5. What was the destination of Tito ’s trip? The International Space Station.6. How much did Tito pay the Russian space agency t fly in space? He paid $20 million for the trip.7. Where did Tito receive his training? At the Star City, a Russian space Center. 8. What was Tito ’s duty the mission?He had no specific duties during the mission. 9. How long would Tito stay in space?He would stay in space for about six days. 10. Where would Tito land? In Siberia.Questions 2:Listen to the recording again and complete the following sentences with the information you obtain.1.

Sputnik On Oct. 4, 1957, the Soviets launched the world's first artificial satellite, called Sputnik (fellow traveler). Although it was only a simple 58-cm (23-in) aluminum sphere containing a pair of radio transmitters, Sputnik's successful orbits around Earth marked a huge step in technology and ushered in the space age.2.

The Russians didn't cut any corners... The Russians didn ’t cut back on any necessary training or lower the requirements for Tito.R e c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a oThe World's First Space Tourist (Part Two)Dennis Tito is the oldest child of working-class Italian immigrants whose ancestors came from the town of Tito in southern Italy. His father was a printer , and his mother was a seamstress (女裁缝). While growing up in Queens, N.Y ., Tito became interested in space travel. He says he dreamed of space flight when he saw Sputnik launch as a teenager in 1957. Yes, it was Sputnik that sparked his teenage imagination.Tito earned bachelor's and master's degrees in aerospace engineering and went to work in 1964 for the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. He charted flight paths for NASA's Mariner Mars probes, earning $15,000 a year . But he yearned for more -- more money.Tito founded his own company Wilshire Associates in the early 1970s, using the mathematical intelligence he developed during his NASA career to analyze the stock market instead. His firm produces the Wilshire 500 Total Market Index, which is watched by Federal Reserve officials as an overall snapshot of U.S. stock markets.By age 40, he had made his first million. The millions kept piling up; the investment firm now manages more than $10 billion in assets and advises on $1 trillion in assets. His personal fortune is estimated at $200 million.Tito's passions include opera, sailing and buying fast cars -- but driving them slowly. Most are housed in the eight-car garage of his 30,000-square-footmanor house with ocean views that he built on top of a mountain in Los Angeles. He and his wife, Suzanne, divorced shortly after the house was completed. His three children are in their 20s.With a large disposable income, Tito toyed with the idea of flying to Mir in the early 1990s. The Russians had just sent up a Japanese journalist and a British chemist for cash, and Tito wanted to be the next guest cosmonaut. But the Soviet Union's collapse forced him to put his dream on hold.The space dream came alive again in April 2000, when the MirCorp joint venture called in April 2000, in hopes of keeping Mir afloat.Tito put millions into an account that the Russian space program could access once he was launched to Mir , and went to the cosmonaut headquarters in the Star City, outside Moscow. There, the 5-foot-5, 140-pound, fit-lookingbusinessman threw himself into training. "The Russians didn't cut any corners," he boasted.When Russia decided to sink its 15-year-old space station, officials offered Tito an alternative destination -- the International Space Station, barely 2 years old. Another Soyuz spacecraft was needed at the space station as a fresh lifeboat, and the third, empty seat was offered to him.Tito was thrilled with the change in travel plans. "They're different star hotels," he said of the two space stations.R e c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a oHe took special delight in launching from the same pad where Sputnik took off on Oct. 4, 1957, and where the world's first spaceman, Yuri Gagarin, took off on April 12, 1961.Tito was the third American to be launched aboard a Russian rocket, but the first to land in a Russian spacecraft. The Soyuz capsule parachutes down into remote Kazakstan.All three of Tito's children were at the Baikonur Cosmodrome for his launch. Tito insisted he was not afraid or even nervous about his flight."If you're going to die of natural causes, does it pay to sit at home and be afraid to cross the street?" Tito said. "The main thing is, I'm not crazy." Questions 1 :Listen to the recording and choose the right answers to each questions you hear.1. Where was Tito born? A. In southern Italy B. In the UK . C .

Questions 2:Listen to the recording again and complete the following statements about Tito’s Personal information.R e c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a oSpeaking Task (1)You have just heart a story about the world ’s first space tourist, Dennis Tito. What is your opinion of him and his flight? Exchange views with your partner. Reflections:You may wish to cover the following points in your discussion.1. What is special about the space tourist Dennis Tito?2. What is the significance of Tito's f1ying in space?3. What are the prospects of the space tourism?4. What do you think: of Tito's courage to fly in space?Dennis Tito, an American millionaire from California, flew into space at his own expense and became the first space tourist in the world. He stayed in space for six days and then landed in Siberia.Dennis was born into a poor Italian immigrant family. From childhood, he had a dream of flying into space. He worked hard and accumulated a large fortune. Though he was a very successful businessman and could fly to anywhere in the world, he never abandoned his youthful dream -- flying into space. He managed to fulfill his dream at the age of 61. Of course, he had to pay a lot of money to the Russians and endure the hardship of strict space training.We should not underestimate the importance of Tito's flying in space. His trip marked the beginning of a new era in space exploration. As the technology of space exploration has matured, ordinary people now can fly in spaceships if they wish and commercial space travel will probably become popular in the next 20 or 50 years.But still, space travel at present involves danger. The recent breakup of the space shuttle "Columbia" is an example. Any minor mechanical fault or mistake could end in a disaster. Dennis Tito surely knew this danger but he demonstrated an exceptional courage in facing the difficulty and danger. He set a good example not only to his three children but also to all who are pursuing their teenage dreams. Speaking Task (2)R e c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a oDebatingAs you probably know, china has been conducting research and experiments that are aimed at sending cosmonauts into space. The successful launch and landing of the unmanned spacecraft Shenzhou IV has pushed China closer to its goal of manned space flight. Of course, to achieve this goal, China has to spend a huge amount of money estimated at 10 billion Yuan. We all know that China is still a developing country and its education still lags behind that of the developed countries. Many young Chinese are denied chances of receiving higher education because of insufficient educational facilities. So why not use this amount of money to build more universities across the country?Suppose you are the policymakers and you have the right to vote either for the space program or for building more universities, which decision would you make? Give your reasons.Topic: Argument for or against “using our limited resources on the manned space program ” Perspectives:1. From the perspective of supporter of the manned spaceship (for)2. From the perspective of those rejecting the space program (against) DemosFrom the perspective of supporters of the manned spaceship (for)If I were a policy maker, I would definitely support our space program. It ’s significance is manifold(有多种用途的).First, the launch of the unmanned spaceship Shenzhou IV is deemed(认为，相信) a symbol of national prestige(威望). This shows that our country is strong both militarily and economically, and China would become the third nation in the world to achieve manned space flight. The manned spaceship would also inspire Chinese people to love, support and defend our country.Second, the spaceship program requires the development of advanced technology, especially in the manufacturing sector. So it would contribute to the economic growth of our country.Third, the space program is an integrated program. It combines many branches of science, such as medicine, aerospace, genetic engineering, biophysics and even agriculture. Many experiments done on the spaceship would prove the quality of our lives. So the enormous amount of money spent would pay off in the end.From the perspective of those rejecting the space program(against)I don't think it's wise to spend so much money on the space program. There would appear to be no direct link between the unmanned or manned spaceship program and the quality of our daily life. As we all know, China is aR e c o r d e r C o l e W i n G a odeveloping country with a large population. We have so many domesticproblems waiting for us to solve and our economy is relatively weak. We cannot compete with the U.S. in space exploration. Besides, education in China lags behind that of the major developed countries. According to some statistic, only about one fifth of youth can receive higher education in China because of insufficient educational facilities. Poverty is still a serious social problem inChina, especially in the western part, which not only deprives many children of opportunities of going to school, but also slows down the process of applying science to production.So why not spend the limited funds available trying to improve the existing educational facilities and to build more universities? If more young people can receive higher education, China would have a better resource of manpower to compete with the U.S. Only science and education will save our country in the long run.Part C Additional ListeningMir's EndMir was a testament to Russian technology. Built to last five years, operational for 13, it's been called an accident waiting to happen, for the space station has survived fires, decompression and problems ranging from mechanical and computer breakdowns to a collision with an unmanned cargo ship.Since its launch in 1986, Mir has been home to over 25 crews from more than a dozen countries. It's been a base for astronomical observations and scientific experiments as well as giving astronauts invaluable experience of long-duration space flight. But Mir's end, though welcomed by many, could affect the pace of future space exploration.Mir really brings to an end, the end of that space race, uh, really closes off space race now.
