In 2003, the country sent up the manned spacecraft Shenzhou-V. Four years later, Change-I went into orbit (轨道) around the moon. In 2008 a Chinese man did the countrys first spacewalk.These achievements would have been unthinkable without the contribution of Qian Xuesen, a key scientist on space programs and rocketry (火箭技术) of the Peoples Republic of China. This pioneering scientist passed away in Beijing on October 31 in 2009 at the age of 98. Once called “the father of our space industry”, Qian began working on Chinas missile and space technology in 1956, when China had little technology. When asked by General Chen Geng whether the Chinese could develop their own missiles, Qian said Chinese could do anything that foreigners could. His research helped lead to the explosion of Chinas first atomic bomb (原子弹) in1964, as well as to its first man-made satellite in 1970 and its first manned spacecraft in 2003. Qian was born in Shanghai. He graduated from Shanghai Jiaotong University in 1934.Then he studied in the US at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and later at the California Institute of Technology. During World War, Qians research contributed to the development of rocket technology that the US military (军队) began using in the 1940s. He was once prevented from leaving the country because it was decided that he knew too much about certain military matters. It was not until in 1955 that Qian returned to China with the help of the late premier Zhou Enlai. “I plan to do my best to help the Chinese build a nation where they can live with dignity (尊严) and happiness, ” Qian told reporters before sailing for China in 1955. The great scientist devoted all his life to keeping the promise. 56. What is the article mainly about?A. It gives a short history of Chinese missile and space programs.B. It is about how Qian contributed to the Chinese space program.C. It lists important events that Qian experienced.D. It is a brief introduction to Qian, a famous Chinese scientist.57. Which statement about Qian is TRUE?A. He was born in China and brought up in America.B. He went to America for further study after graduation from university.C. He returned to his hometown right after finishing his education. D. He had worked on missiles in the US military before coming back to China.58. Qian was personally involved in many historic events in China EXCEPT .A. the first spacewalk B. the first man-made satelliteC. the development of missiles D. the explosion of an atomic bomb59. From the article, we can conclude that .A. the US military had hoped to take full advantage of Qians talent B. Qian had an important position in the US military in the 1940sC. when World War broke out, Qian was studying at Shanghai Jiaotong UniversityD it was not easy to get Qian back from the USB“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move.” said David Belle, the co-founder of parkour (跑酷).Do you love running? It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. But what if making your morning jog a creative one? Like jumping from walls and over gaps and ground rolls? Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale? Bond jumps down from a roof to a window sill (窗台) and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just because of Bonds wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide. Yes, thats parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is considered an extreme sport. As its participants (参与者) dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop. Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that.Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy (理念) behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, and jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life, to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said, “I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything.”Another philosophy weve learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence. 60.

A spider!”But hold on a minute before you run screaming out of the room that spider may not be as scary as you think. A study has shown that the more scared you are of spiders, the bigger they can seem to you.Researchers from Ohio State University, US, gathered together 57 participants who were all extremely afraid of spiders, according to . During an eight-week-long experiment, they asked participants to look at five differently sized tarantulas (狼蛛) and documented how the participants reacted to them. Each tarantula was kept in an open glass box. Participants had to approach the box slowly. Once they were standing next to the box, they were asked to guide the spider around the tank by touching it with a stick, then with a shorter stick. In the meantime, they were asked to rate their fear level on a scale (级别) of 0 to 100. After every time they met a tarantula, participants would have to estimate its size by drawing a single line on a piece of paper. The length of the line showed how big they thought the tarantula was from the tips of its front legs to the tips of its back legs. Researchers saw a clear connection between the estimated size of the animal and the fear level of participants. “If one is afraid of spidersone tends to think of spiders as bigger than they really are. That may feed the fear, and make it difficult to overcome,” said Michael Vasey, professor at Ohio State University and the leader of the study. The study could help doctors design more effective treatments for people to overcome their fears. This could be very important for some people, for example, those who are afraid of needles. 64. Which of the following is TRUE about the experiment?A. The scientists kept five spiders together in an uncovered glass box.B. The participants need to describe their fear in words.C. The participants had to be very frightened of spiders.D. The participants were told how big the spiders really were.65.

Through the study, the researchers .A. helped participants reduce their fear of spidersB. learned how to design needles that were suitable for different people.C. could help work out better treatments for people to overcome their fears.D. had participants face their fears by playing with spiders.67. What is the main point of the article?A. Fear feeds on fear. B. Why spiders are so scary.C. A new treatment for fear. D. How afraid you are of an animal depends on how big it is.DItem 78431 The Video Camera Pen $129.95; Available for Immediate Shipment; Order by Phone: 1-800-321-1484 This is the pen that has a built-in video camera, capturing (拍摄，录制) videos or still images with a click of its buttonIdeal for use while secured in a pocket, it can capture up to five hours of video.
