This text mainly tells us that.Aher father faced the difficultiesBher father did an experimentCher father taught her how to cookDher father taught her how to deal with the difficultiesAs space science develops, man has learned more and more about space. Space is not only amazing but also dangerous. While working in space, spacemen are facing danger as well as success.Scientists have found out that the radiation (辐射) is the greatest danger to spacemen in space When spacemen are working in space, they are in danger of the radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The harm of the radiation wont be found until their children even grandchildren are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but no really effective medicine has been found so far.Space rubbish is also thought to be a great danger to spacemen. Its reported that there were 9,000 man-made things flying in space. About 30% of these are satellites, 10% are spaceships, and the rest are space rubbish. An explosion (爆炸) in space in 1999 made a cloud of 300.000 fragments, each at least 4mm in size. A small piece of these even knocked a spaceship window and caused some damage (损坏).Space travel is definitely bad for spacemens bones, reducing their bone density (密度) after only a month of weightlessness, according to French research published on Friday.Laurence Vico and his fellow workers at St Etienne University called for more research into the effects of microgravity, after their study of 15 astronauts from the Russian MIR station showed bone loss continued throughout space flights.“Bone loss was especially striking in four astronauts,” the scientists reported in the lancet Medical Journal. They measured the bone mineral density (BMD) of bones in the forearm (前臂) and lower leg of the astronauts who had spent one to six months in space.The BMD loss was obvious in the tibia (胫骨) of the lower leg, a weight-bearing bone, but hardly changed in the radius (桡骨) of the forearm. “Our results show the need to study not only different bones, but also different areas of the same bone since not all sites of the skeleton (骨架) are similarly affected by space conditions,” they added. Without gravity the body isnt bearing any weight so there is no need for calcium (钙) which makes bones strong, and it becomes empty into the bloodstream.21 . The passage talks about _ kinds of danger in space.AtwoBthreeCfourDfive22 . Which of the following is TRUE?AThe harm of the radiation may be found in the spacemens children.BSpecial medicines can solve the radiation problem.C40% of the flying things in space are space rubbish.DA-month-long travel in space can hardly do harm to spacemens bone.23 . Scientists have found that _.Athe BMD loss may cause serious illness to astronautsBthe BMD loss may cause some change in astronauts bodiesCastronauts shouldnt care about the BMD lossDastronauts should take some calcium before space travel24 . What cause the BMD loss to astronauts, according to this passage?AThe food they eat in space.BThe drinks they take in space.CThe temperature in space.DThe gravity in space.We often praise the world of science.It explains the world and makes our lives easier with technology. One of the most exciting fields in science is artificial intelligence (人工智能AI）. This is an area where scientists are working on creating machines that think like humans.However, one of the most famous scientists has a very dark warning for us about this type of technology.“The development of artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race,” said Professor Stephen Hawking to the BBC.Hawking is a well-known British scientist and writer of bestselling science book A Brief History of Time. This warning came after he used the machine particularly made for him. As Hawking suffers from a serious disease called ALS, he needs an AI computer to communicate. The computer learns how Hawking thinks and suggests the words he may want to use next.Thisis a basic type of AI, which is very useful, yet Hawking is frightened of the possibility of creating technology that can match or surpass human intelligence. And its easy to imagine how terrible things may be. Many TV shows and films display big, killer machines that are far cleverer than us. “Humans cant compete because they are limited by slow biological evolution (生物进化）,” said Hawking.In what direction do you think AI is heading? Should we be hopeful or fearful?25 . According the passage, AI machines can _ nowadays.Amake our lives easierBthink like human beingsCbe much smarter than humans nowDnot be controlled by human beings soon26 . What does the underlined wordThisstand for in paragraph 5?AA big, killer machine.BA serious disease called ALS.CThe AI computer Hawing uses.DThe AI technology scientists work on.27 . The writer took Hawking as an example to _.Aexplain how AI has helped usBshow the great hidden use of AICshow AI has already become part of our lifeDsuggest that AI might become dangerous for humans28 . Which of the following can be the title for this article?AThe development of AIBAI: a friend or an enemy?CThe future of human beingsDThe fight between humans and AI三、用单词的正确形式完成句子用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空。每词仅用一次，每空一词。remember；eye；breakfast；stay；delicious29 .
