Richard Bransons Virgin Galactic plans to make that possible. Beginning in 2009, people should have the opportunity to become space tourists, traveling at about 3,000 mph to heights about 75 miles above Earth. Branson has high hopes for his latest plans. It is just the start of what we believe will be a new age in the history of mankind-one day making the affordable exploration of space by human beings a real possibility, he said.At the start, though, the trip wont be cheap. Seats aboard Virgins first craft-VSS Enterprise-will cost about $200,000. Prices could drop after the first hundred space flights. Despite the current ticket cost, more than 30,000 people-including celebrities(名人) Sigourney Weaver and Victoria Principal-have expressed interest in getting onboard. People who dont have an extra $200,000 still have a chance to get a seat aboard the craft. A computer game contest and a reality television show are in the works. Those who cant afford a ticket will have an opportunity to win a seat. Virgin is expected to be the first commercial spacecraft. It will hold six passengers and two pilots. Passengers will be able to see the Earth from many different viewpoints. The cabin will include 15 floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing for views that extend about 1,000 miles in any direction.Passengers will have three days of preflight preparation. On the big day, the spacecraft will take off from the Mojave Spaceport in the California desert. The craft will rocket passengers into space at four times the speed of sound. The journey will last about 2 1.2 hours. Passengers will wear spacesuits and helmets(头盔). They will be able to float around the cabin and do somersaults(空翻) during the five minutes of weightlessness they will experience in zero gravity. At the end of the flight, the craft will land on a runway.56. Virgin Galactic could be _.A. the engineer of the first commercial spacecraft B. the name of a series of spacecrafts C. the company of the first commercial spacecraft D. a passenger aboard the first commercial spacecraft57. The space passengers will do all the following except that _.A. they will receive a three-day training course B. they will wear spacesuits and helmetsC. they will take about $200,000 with them D. they will experience weightlessness 58. Which statement is true according to the passage?A. More than 30,000 people have got to travel in spacecraft.B. Many people signed up for space travel in spite of the high ticket cost.C. Those without much money could also go space travel without occupying the seats.D. The first commercial spacecraft will have six persons on board. 59. What is the text mainly about?A. The exciting moment of the spacecrafts launching. B. The living condition of space tourists in the craft.C. Preparations for a space travel. D. Plans for the first commercial space flight.BHappiness is associated with smiling. But do we always smile when we are happy?During the Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1992, Spanish researchers analyzed the facial expressions of 22 gold medal winners at the medal ceremonies. The researchers were surprised to see that these medal winners didnt smile very much. In fact, throughout the different medal ceremonies, they only smiled about 10% of the time. But during the brief moment when the gold medal was put around their neck, the medal winners grinned (露齿笑) about 70% of the time. The researchers interviewed the winners they had watched to find out how they felt. All the winners interviewed said that they felt intensely(强烈的）happy throughout the ceremony. Though they were profoundly（衷心地）happy, they didnt smile a great deal. The researchers concluded that smiling was not the automatic expression of happiness. The fact that the gold medal winners smiled much more when they were actually being given their medals could be explained because, according to the Spanish researchers, smiling was a form of communication between individuals. The happy athletes were smiling at the people who were giving them gold medals. Perhaps we can support the findings of the Spanish researchers by making some observations of our own behaviors. When we are all alone, for example, do we smile at ourselves when we are happy? Probably not very often. If someone greets us with a friendly smile, do we respond with a smile? Yes, we probably do. When a friend gives us a beautiful present, will we show our appreciation with a smile? Yes, of course. But if we are sitting alone watching television, do we smile at a commentator (讲解员) who smiles at us?60. How much of the time did the gold medal winners smile during the medal ceremonies? A. 10%. B. 70%. C. 22%. D. 92%.61. According to the passage, when did the athletes smile quite a lot? A. Throughout the medal ceremony. B. When they were informed of their success. C. When the gold medal was put around their neck. D. When their national flag was raised.62. According to the passage, on which of the following occasions would we most probably NOT smile?A. When we are sitting alone watching TV. B. When someone greets us with a friendly smile.C. When a friend gives us a beautiful present. D. When we feel intensely happy.63. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The gold medal winners were too nervous that they would hardly smile at the medal ceremonies.B. People will always smile automatically when they feel happy.C. Smiling is a way of communication.D. When the gold medal was put around their neck, the gold medal winners were smiling at the audience but not at those who gave the medal.CWELCOME TO YOUR FREE ISH MEMBERSHIPYour MembershipInternational Students House is a unique, cultural and recreational centre providing a wide programme of events for students 310 days a year.Located in a fashionable and safe neighborhood, close to Regents Park, ISH is a central place to meet students from Britain and around the world.ISH provides all its members with the opportunity to enjoy a wide variety of sports and hobbies in a friendly and fun environment.

One important question that you might ask yourself is: How do I get a good job?_71_. There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local paper and land the best job in the world; others write to all sorts of places all over the country, and never seem to get a reply at all. Still others believe that the in person, door-to-door approach is by far the best way to get a job; and then there are those who, through no active decision of their own, just seem to be in the right place at the right time. _72_.
