until there were changes in the suit s appearance Over time the suit started to show signs of deterioration Lisa Young said Young is an objects conservator 文物修复员 at NASM It is her job to preserve 维护 historical and cultural objects Plastics are tricky to conserve Young says They tend to degrade 降解 over time Neoprene is one type of plastic in Armstrong s suit The material can turn brittle and break into tiny pieces This would ruin the space suit NASM seeking ways to preserve this historical treasure removed it from display in 2006 第 10 页 共 23 页 What causes plastic to degrade in the first place Many things Odile Madden says Madden is a scientist in California She explains that sunlight water humidity and dust can cause plastics to degrade Some plastics will break down no matter what we do Madden says Yet history can still be saved Scientists have found that storing plastics in cooler temperatures with lower humidity levels can slow degradation Young says Armstrong s suit is currently

same as mini skirt wearing hair coloring cheerleader types like Regina George in Mean Girls Today teachers and parents inform children that being popular is irrelevant 不相干的 unnecessary and a sure shortcut to upset misery and death And some people describe popular students as the ones most likely to bum out and end up as nobody while their less well liked counterparts enjoy a life of wealth and fame However the Oxford English Dictionary defines 定义 popularity as The State or condition of being liked admired or supported by many people This sounds like a lovely thing and is not related to such behaviors as burn books or three way phone calls in Mean Girls In fact it is a truth widely acknowledged that young people who feel liked or supported are more likely to obtain impressive achievements than those who feel lonely unvalued and irrelevant socially So why then is popularity given such a bad name Why is this state of well likedness so demonized 第 12 页 共 23 页 Basically the hatred 恨 shown toward what appears to be a very pleasant thing is caused by lack of understanding When we as viewers see characters such as Regina Georges on TV and in films we recognize them to be popular These characters if not exactly liked greatly admired by their peers 同伴 Our mistake comes when we try to understand their cruel and unkind actions using the deduction 推论 method Humans are imperfect and even the most intelligent mind is open to dishonesty through a very small slip in logic Unfortunately this occurs here with branding results We first learn that a character is popular Since this is important to the plot it is constantly emphasized leading it to be the most common thing in our minds when we consider the character Later we see that character do something unkind The character s most noticeable characteristic in our minds is his her popularity And now the character is mean and unkind This character is popular Therefore we jump to a quick conclusion 结论 that popular people are mean and unkind Things such as improper behaviors and rumor spreading are terrible and should always be seen in a very serious light However it is important to recognize that these are not the behaviors of popular people but bullies So in summary do not be afraid to be popular and have many friends If you are kind to everyone and treat others with respect there will be few who can criticize you for being widely liked is not a curse but a blessing Just remember that being popular does give you a degree of power and with great power comes a large electricity bill 1 The writer mentions the definition of popularity in paragraph 2 to A bring up his opinion B give an example C come to a conclusion 第 13 页 共 23 页 D offer his suggestion 2 What can we learn from the passage A Being popular might offer a shortcut to a life of wealth B Students who feel supported have a better chance to achieve more C Popular students are usually famous but mean and unkind D The less well liked people consider being popular as something bad 3 Paragraph 4 and 5 are mainly about A the importance of being admired by peers B the ways to clear up some misunderstanding C the advantages and disadvantages of being popular D the reasons why people show hatred to being popular 4 The writer probably agrees that A cheerleader types will surely end up as nobody B being popular is unnecessary for most students C treating others with kindness is beneficial to popular people D famous people are likely to make mistakes and be criticized 24 6 分 If the rose can be said to be a special flower then the
