Early last month, the first American robot, Spirit, landed on Mars without any problem. Opportunity, the second robot, landed on the planet more than a week ago. Scientists are very excited about these machines’ safe landing on Mars. It means that now we have an excellent chance to look for water and other signs of life. So far, the robots have found some stones that could show Mars was once a wet and warm planet.
But the trips made by Spirit and Opportunity were dangerous. Mars is often called the “death planet”, because in the past its environment has been unfriendly to the robot explorers. Before Spirit and Opportunity, nearly forty spaceships had been sent to Mars since the 1960s. Two-thirds of them failed. The first spaceship, Korabl, sent in 1962 by Russia was among them. It broke apart (分裂) near the earth.

举一反三
In the past, man did not have to think about the protection of his environment. There were not many people on earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited.
Today, things are different. The world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue like this, human life on earth will not survive.
Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet, with modern fishing methods, more and more fish are caught. We know that if too many trees are cut down, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on the land. Yet, we continue to use bigger and more powerful machines to cut down more and more trees.
We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in most countries waste products are still put into rivers or into the sea, and there are few laws to stop this.
We know, too, that if the population of the world continues to rise at the present rate, in a few years, there will not be enough food.
What can we do to solve these problems?
If we eat more vegetables and less meat, we will easily get more food. Land that is used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.
The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
Finally, if we educate people to think about the problems, we shall have a better and cleaner living place in the future.
| The importance of 小题1: the environment | |
| Problems | ◆ More fish being caught. ◆ More 小题2: being cut down. ◆ More waste products being 小题3: into rivers. ◆ More 小题4: being born. |
| Causes | ◆ The world is becoming too 小题5: . ◆ Modern methods make the situation 小题6: . |
| 小题7: | We human beings will not survive on the earth. |
| Solutions | ◆ Eat more vegetables and less meat so that more food will be 小题8: for everyone. ◆ Use modern methods of 小题9: control so that the population will not grow too fast. ◆ Educate people so that the 小题10: will be better and cleaner. |
Izhar Gafni had an idea to make a cardboard bicycle able to support the weight of a human being. After three years hard work, he succeeded in creating this special bike. It is made of cardboard and 100% recycled materials. It costs less than $12.
The cardboard bike can hold a rider weighing up to 485 pounds. And if you don’t want to have it any more, you could just throw it into dustbin. And this will do no damage to the environment because it is easy to recycle.
When talking about his design, Izhar says, “It’s strong. It’s durable. It is cheap. What I like about it the most is: it’s made out of recycled cardboard.
小题1:What was the first bicycle made of ?
| A．wood | B．steel | C．cardboard | D．iron |
| A．$9 | B．$13 | C．$15 | D．$16 |
| A．strong, expensive, durable and recycled |
| B．strong, heavy, expensive and durable |
| C．strong, cheap, durable and recycled |
| D．strong, heavy, cheap and durable |
| A．negative | B．unconcerned | C．favorable | D．indifferent |

The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995, by Dr Madan Kataria. “Children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr Kataria. “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing — it’s the universal (共同的) language.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide.
Many doctors are also interested in the effects (影响)of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study at the UCLS School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.
So what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to the nearest club in the south of London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class. I had no interest in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid (愚蠢的). Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands (拍手) and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha” while looking at each other. Although we couldn’t tell the differences between fake laughter and real laughter, they still produced the same healthy effects.
Surprisingly, it worked! After ten minutes, everybody there was laughing for real and some people just couldn’t stop! At the end of the class I was shocked by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing.

Make a card about the size of a postcard and write two English letters L and R on it, Lon the left and R on the right. First, hold the card about 80 cm away and you see both the letters. Then close your right eye and look at the letter R only with your left eye. And now, as you move the card slowly towards you, you" 11 find the letter L disappearing. But if you move the card nearer to your face, the letter will be seen again. Now do the same experiment with your left eye closed, you"ll find the letter R disappearing.
Why does the letter disappear? It is because there is a blind spot on the eye. When the image（影像）of the letter falls on the blind spot, it won"t be seen. That is why either of the letters disappears．
小题1:The writer of the passage thinks that_______ there is a blind spot on the eye.
| A．few people know | B．no one knows | C．only you know | D．all the people know |
| A．驱散 | B．消散 | C．消失 | D．遗失 |
| A．your eyes are poor | B．its image falls on the blind spot |
| C．your left eye is not open | D．you move it close to your eye |
①Hold the card ②Move the card nearer ③Close your right eye
④write two English letters ⑤Look at the letter R ⑥Make a card
| A．④⑥①②③⑤ | B．①③⑥④⑤② |
| C．⑥①④③②⑤ | D．⑥④①③⑤② |

Now more water is needed. The problem is: Can we avoid (避免) a serious water shortage later on? First, we should all learn how to save water. Secondly, we should find out the ways to reuse it . Scientists have always been making studies in the field. Today, in most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers . But it can be used again. Even if every large city reused its water, still there would not be enough. What could people turn to next?
The sea seems to have the best answer. There is a lot of water in the sea. All that needs to be done is to get the salt out of the sea water. This is expensive, but it"s already used in many parts of the world. Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way of doing it. So you see, if we can find a way out, we"ll be in no danger of drying up.
小题1:The world is thirsty because ________.
| A．3/4 of the earth is covered with water |
| B．we have enough sea water to use directly |
| C．we haven"t used all the water in rivers and lakes |
| D．about 97% of water on the earth can"t be drunk or used for watering plants directly |
| A．3% of water on the earth is in rivers and lakes. |
| B．75% of water on the earth is the sea. |
| C．97% of the earth is covered with water. |
| D．3% of water on the earth is sea water. |
| A．if every city reuses its water, we"ll be in no danger of drying up |
| B．man can only drink and use about 25% of water on the earth |
| C．today in most large cities water is used only once |
| D．water can be used only once |
| A．Save water and try to make good use of the water in rivers and lakes. |
