阅读理解。     If you knew a bottle of water had been recycled from urine (尿), would you drink it? Astronauts at the
International Space Station (ISS) may soon do so.
     NASA (美国航空航天局) said it would use a high-tech machine (高科技机器) to recycle wastewater
at the ISS. The machine will recycle everything from sweat (汗), the water for washing hands, shower water,
water used for brushing teeth, and even urine, to make drinking water.
     It will save NASA millions of dollars each year. At present, each ISS astronaut uses about 4.4 liters (升)
of water every day. It costs about $24 million a year to transport water up to ISS. NASA says that a liter of
water costs about $11,000.
     The machine will be sent to the ISS in October 2008. NASA hopes it will recycle about 93% of all water
used on the station.
     Will the water be clean? Scientists say the wastewater will go through a very complicated process (复杂
的过程). For example, different chemicals will be put in the wastewater; the water will be heated to 130℃ to
get rid of bacteria (细菌). The recycled water is thousands of times better than the water from a city tap,
scientists say. 1. NASA will use a high-tech machine to recycle wastewater at the ISS to _________. A. protect the ISS
B. make astronauts at ISS work harder
C. provide better water and food for ISS astronauts
D. save the cost of transporting water up to the ISS 2. At present it costs NASA about _________ dollars to transport water up to an astronaut at the ISS a day. A. 4.4 thousand
B. 11 thousand
C. 48.4 thousand
D. 24 million 3. Scientists plan to get rid of bacteria in the wastewater by __________. A. freezing
B. heating
C. shaking
D. precipitating (沉淀) 4. The reading mainly tells us something about _________. A. water recycling
B. the International Space Station
C. a high-tech machine
D. the cost of NASA 5. Which of the following sentences is true, according to the passage? A. The recycled water is much better than that from a city tap.
B. The high-tech machine will recycle all the water used on the station.
C. At present, each ISS astronaut uses more water than the people living on the earth.
D. The high-tech machine can only recycle urine to make water at present.

阅读短文，根据要求完成下面各小题。      3. For those of us who are studying at school, the time of exams is very stressful and difficult. Some
people find exam times so bad that they become ill, because they are afraid of failing; they are afraid of
letting their parents and family down. If exams are really making you ill or worried, don"t hide your feelings.
Talk to someone about it. Maybe you can speak to a friend, or someone in your family, or teachers at your
place of study. If one person doesn"t help you, ask someone else.
     How to get through exams? Here are some advice:
     Ask a teacher or tutor about how to review your lessons, and exam skills-how to work when you are in
an exam.
     Take short rests during your time of work. If your mind is tired, it will not remember well.
     Plan your work: study at times when you know you will work at your best.
     Get enough sleep, and eat healthy food.
     You need exercise to work well. Walk, run, play sport-whatever you enjoy.
    Stop thinking about the future and failing.
     If you feel ill, talk to someone about your worries. But don"t be too relaxed! 4. Some stress over exams
makes you work hard for them.
    If it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished, don"t do it! In fact, don"t even
think about the exam you have finished. What is done is done. You cannot change what you have written!
    To this advice, we could add:
     If you are studying in the evening, don"t go straight to bed. Your mind will still be "going round and round"
-thinking too much. Do something else, maybe walk or get exercise. Choose something that will relax you,
and make you think of other things. （一）根据短文内容简要回答问题。
1. Why do some students hate exams?
    ______________________________________________________________________
2. What should you do if the exam upsets you when it is finished?
    ______________________________________________________________________
（二）将短文中划线的句子译成汉语。
3. ______________________________________________________________________

（三）请给短文拟一个适当的标题。

阅读理解。     French doctors and American scientists have reported doing an operation in which the doctor was outside
the operating room. This kind of operation is known as robotic operation.
     Doctor Marescaux did the operation in an office in New York City last month, while a sixty-eight-year-old
woman patient was in a hospital in Strasbourg, France.
     A doctor in Strasbourg got the patient ready. He placed medical tools and a small video camera in her
stomach area. Doctor Marescaux in New York watched the patient on a video screen. Then he used the
computer to send messages to the robot machine. The robot moved the tools that cut the woman"s gallbladder
(胆囊) away. The woman got well soon after the operation and left the hospital two days later.
     Experts say the main problem with such a robotic operation is based on high-speed telecommunications
between the doctor and the robot. Technology must be able to send a doctor"s order to a robot to move the
tools quickly.
     Experts also say a successful robotic operation will improve an operation. For example, the robot can make
much smaller movements than a person can. A robot machine can turn tools in ways that a doctor"s hand
cannot.
     Doctors say such a robotic operation will make possible safer and better operations in the future. They say
it will improve doctor training. It will also mean that doctors could do an operation on people in dangerous
places far away. And it could mean that people could have operations done by top doctors without having to
travel to the city where doctors work. 1. "Robotic operation" means "______".A. a special kind of robot invented by doctors
B. an operation done far away
C. an operation done with the help of a robot
D. something done to mend a robot 2. We use the robot in the operation because ______. A. it can send messages at a high speed
B. even a top doctor can"t do the operation himself
C. it can make the operation safer and better
D. operations can be done without any doctors 3. If we want to use the robot in the operation, we must solve the problem of ______. A. top doctors
B. smaller movements
C. doctor training
D. high-speed telecommunications 4. If the smaller movement can"t be done by doctors in the operation, we may use ______ to solve it. A. more tools
B. a robot machine
C. a video camera
D. telecommunications 5. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Robotic operation is good for doctor training.
B. Robotic operation has been used in the USA.
C. Experts speak highly of robotic operation.
D. The robot is used to watch the patient clearly.

阅读理解。     At Anacostia Senior High School we have a lot of problems. We have students suspended and we have
low test grades. I think this school is in need of improvement. The reasons why I believe this school needs
improvement are that children are getting suspended and missing out on class work, students are failing,
and the school is dirty.
     The first reason why this school needs improvement is that children are getting suspended and missing
out on class work. Students should not get suspended because it"s like a vacation to them. They will not
change their ways. Instead of putting them out of school for suspension, we should have them in school.
In that way, students can still have good grades.
     The second reason why I believe this school needs improvement is that students are failing. If you come
to school every day you shouldn"t fail. I can"t blame it all on the students; it is the teachers" fault also. Some
teachers do not let students in the class. This school needs tutors. If students had tutors their grades could
improve.
     The third reason why I believe this school is in need of improvement is that it is dirty. Who wants to walk
into a dirty school every day? I don"t! If students help out, the building will stay clean. There should be no
writing on the walls or eating in the halls. We need to treat our schools like we treat our homes.
     These are my reasons why this school needs improvement. If we do these things we can get good grades
have a nice looking school, and students will improve their grades. By doing these things we can also have
the most decent school on the other side of the fiver. 1. What is the meaning of the underlined word "suspended" in the first passage? A. blamed
B. praised
C. put in a vacation
D. put out of school 2. How many reasons does the author give for the improvement of school? A. One.
B. Two.
C. Three.
D. Four. 3. What can we know from the third paragraph? A. Students have tutors.
B. Students have no tutors.
C. Students" grades are high.
D. Students" grades are not talked about. 4. What is the author"s attitude to Anacostia Senior High School? A. He is satisfied with the school.
B. He is not satisfied with the school.
C. He is surprised at the school.
D. He is excited at the school. 5. What is the best title of the passage? A. Reasons for School Improvement
B. the Most Decent School
C. School Building
D. School Improvement

阅读理解。                                                   Paper Plane to Be Dropped from Space
     For most people, it is enough to see their paper planes fly for a few feet. The Japanese, however, want to
make a paper plane fly for 240 miles from space. This crazy paper plane plan was brought up by the leader of
Japan Origami Plane Association (日本折纸飞机协会), Mr. Takuo. In 1999, Mr. Takuo asked Mr. Suzuki, a
designer, if he could help design a 3-metre plane for a TV program. The plane flew successfully from the top
of a mountain. Then Mr. Takuo asked Mr. Suzuki if he would help send a paper plane from space. They made
plans to drop a paper plane from the International Space Station down to the Earth. The idea is to develop a
kind of modern plane that can study the atmosphere.
     An 8-inch-long paper plane has been made and treated with a chemical ( 化学药品) so that it can survive
the temperature of 200℃ as it enters the Earth"s atmosphere again. Another 3-inch-long paper plane has been
tested at the temperature of up to 300℃. The paper plane will probably start its trip during a space walk. It will
continue at the same speed as the space station, but its orbit (轨道) will change slowly. Maybe it will survive
the drop, but the researchers don"t know where it will land, so they have written a message in several languages,
saying, "This plane flew from the International Space Station. Please return the plane to Japan Origami Plane
Association."
    If the paper plane successfully flies from space, some new design ideas can be explored. It seems to be a
crazy idea, but who can say that it isn"t a creative one? 1. What can we learn about the paper plane in the research? A. It can survive high temperatures.
B. It can send messages from space.
C. It can land where people want it to.
D. It can study the atmosphere. 2. Why was the message written in several languages on the paper plane? A. Because it is an international project.
B. Because it belongs to several countries.
C. Because it may land somewhere outside Japan.
D. Because it is popular with people in different countries. 3. Why do the Japanese do the research on the paper plane? A. To set up a world record of the biggest paper plane.
B. To provide useful ideas for making a kind of modern plane.
C. To make the life in the space station more colorful.
D. To make Japan Origami Plane Association well known in the world.
