English kids talk about the Liverpools soccer team in a Paris pub.Some Parisians have even started to go to work in London.In the 19th century, Charles Dickens compared the two great rival cities, London and Paris, in A Tale of Two Cities. These days, it might be A Tale of One City.Parisians are these days likely to smile in sympathy at a visitors broken French and respond in polite English.As jobs grew lacking at home over recent years, perhaps 250,000 Frenchmen moved across the Channel. With an undersea tunnel, they could travel between cities in three hours. The European Union freed them from immigration and customs.Paris, rich in beauty, is more attractive, but London feels more full of life, and more fun until the pubs shut down.“For me, the difference is that London is real, alive,” said Trevor Wheeler, a banker.Chantal Jaouen, a professional designer, agrees, “I am French, but Ill stay in London,” she said.There is, of course, the other view, Julie Lenoux is a student who moved to London two years ago. “I think people laugh more in Paris,” she said.In fact, London and Paris, with their obvious new similarities, are beyond the old descriptions. As the European Union gradually loosened controls, Londoners flocked into Paris to shop, eat and buy property.“Both cities have changed beyond recognition,” said Larry Collins, a writer and sometimes a Londoner.Like most people who know both well, he finds the two now fit together comfortably.“I first fell in love with Paris in the 1950s, and it is still a wonderful place,” Collins said.“But if I had to choose, it would be London. Things are so much more ordered, and life is better, but certainly not cheaper.”In fancy parts of London, rents can be twice those on Avenue Foch in Paris.Deciding between London and Paris requires a lifestyle choice.Like Daphne Benoit, a French journalism student with perfect English, many young people are happy to be close enough so they dont have to choose.“I love Paris, my little neighborhood, the way I can walk around a center, but life is so structured,” she said. “In London, you can be who you want. No one cares.”24. The best title for this passage is “_”.A.Londoners and ParisiansB.A Modern Tale of Two CitiesC.The Similarity of Two CitiesD.Fancy London and Fashionable Paris25. The underlined word “flocked” in the passage probably means “_”.A.came in large numbersB.flew a long wayC.rushed hurriedlyD.drove a long distance26. Living in Paris, you may find _.A.life is betterB.things are cheaperC.a job easilyD.more attractive people27. We can infer from the text that _.A.Paris and London have become perfect partnersB.London feels more full of lifeC.life in London is structuredD.Paris and London have become fierce competitorsCAn exciting landing process of Change-4 lunar probe (月球探测器 ) was seen through the monitor at Beijing Aerospace Control Center in Beijing, Jan. 3, 2019. It touched down on the far side of the moon at 10:26 a.m. Beijing Time, becoming the first spacecraft soft-landing on the moons unknown side never visible from Earth.Chinas Change-4 probe has started the exploration on the far side of the moon thanks to the relay satellite（中继卫星）that provides a communication link with ground control. The relay satellite, named Queqiao, meaning Magpie Bridge, after a Chinese legend (传说 ) , was launched on May 21, 2018, and became the first communication satellite operating in the halo orbit, nearly 500,000 km from the earth. It can also provide communication for probes from other countries. The relay satellite will also be used for scientific and technological experiments. The maximum distance between the satellite and the Change-4 probe on the far side of the moon is 79,000 km. The satellite processes data from the probe and sends it to Earth.The satellite can stay in its orbit for a long time due to its relatively low fuel consumption, as the earths and moons gravity balances its orbital moving. While in orbit, it can see both the earth and the far side of the moon.The concept of using a relay satellite in the halo orbit was first put forward by U.S. space experts in the 1960s, but was realized by Chinese space engineers.Researchers hope to use the cameras on the satellite to record asteroids (小行星 ) hitting the far side of the moon. To control the cost of the Change-4 probe, the relay satellite was designed to be relatively small, weighing about 400 kg.Researchers had just 30 months to develop the satellite, putting them under high pressure. To promote public interest in space exploration, the China National Space Administration invited people to write down their wishes for lunar and space exploration, and the relay satellite carries the names of tens of thousands of participants and their messages.28. What do we learn from the second paragraph?A. The relay satellite was launched on Jan. 3, 2019.B. Change-4 probe was the first communication satellite.C. The relay satellite only explores the far side of the moon.D. The relay satellite can handle data from Change-4 probe.29. Why was the size of the relay satellite relatively small?A. To reduce the cost as much as possible.B. To make it circle Moon for a longer time.C. To avoid being crashed by other satellites.D. To follow American space experts advice.30. What made researchers suffer from great stress?A. Few people interested in the exploration on the moon.B. The relay satellite carrying too much equipment.C. Their lacking enough time to develop the relay satellite.D. Peoples never being optimistic about the relay satellite.31. What is the main idea of the text?A. China is a new space power after the USA.B. Change-4 probe lands on Moons far side.C. Chinese space engineers make much progress.D. Space exploration is a dangerous challenge.DDerek Rabclo is not the only surfer (冲浪手）to conquer Hawaii s famous Pipeline big wave break, but while all others use their sight to do it, this young professional surfer must rely only on his other senses.

But thats exactly what Derek Rabelo set out to do just months after learning how to surf. Everyone told him it was too dangerous, but he felt he could do it. And he did, earning the praise of famous professional surfers like Kelly Slater and Mick Fanning. Now 24, Rabelo has been surfing the Pipeline every winter since.32.
