1.Four days before Christmas in 1968,Frank Borman,James Lovell and William Anders had an adventure out to the moon,becoming the first human beings to near and orbit our closest neighbour in space.On Christinas Eve,they pointed a TV camera out of the window of Apollo 8 and showed a global audience of 1 billion the ancient moon moving slowly below their spaceship.As that movie played,Anders began reading, "In the beginning,God created the heaven and the earth..."
"I didn't choose it," he said last October,when all three astronauts met to mark the 50th anniversary of their moon flight,at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry,where their spaceship is displayed.
When the three men returned to earth on December 27,they were surrounded by a sea of joy.That kind of collective joy-born of collective effort- can seem beyond us now.From the factory floor to the three men in the spaceship,an estimated (估計) 400,000 people had a hand in making the moon flight possible.Behind the joy there was also a dark danger Apollo 8 might face.If the astronauts made it into the moon orbit but their engine failed to fire when it was time to return,rescue would be impossible.They would circle the moon forever.But the astronauts did come home,and in the process they gave the world another gift:the celebrated photograph that came to be known as Earthrise.
Even fifty years later,Borman and Lovell continued to play jokes on Anders,85 then.
"I'm still trying to figure out who did it," said Borman,with a wink(眨眼睛).
"You did it,I think," Lovell answered.
"William did it," Borman admits. "He didn't want me to take it at first," Anders said.
"I have never said it before publicly," said Borman, "but I'm just proud that I was able to fly with these two talented guys.You did a really good job."

A.to show the moon to the world

2.The Trans-Siberian Railway is a single train line that crosses nearly the complete length of Russia,from Moscow to Vladivostok.It covers a total of 5,772 miles,running from Europe to Asia.Unlike the longest flight in the world,which just began transporting passengers in 2018,the Trans-Siberian Railway started its business in 1916.
Anyone who has taken this long journey,or even just part of it,will tell you that it travels at a rather slow speed,passing through some amazing,remote areas of Russia.You don't have to make the full journey without stopping.Instead,you're recommended to get off where there are attractive views,since it stops in some pretty fantastic places.But you certainly can take the full journey non-stop.If you do,the trip will take about 144 hours-six full days!
You can book tickets with travel agencies.You can also make the booking online and tickets will be sent to your hotel or personal address.Children under 4 years old accompanied by adults can travel free,but cannot take up a seat.A child ticket needs to be bought if you want to get a seat for the child.
There are longer railway services in the transportation world,but only one of them is a passenger line as some longer routes transport goods,not travellers.This railway may not be the fastest or the most modern,but it's clearly still an important player in the transportation world!
(1)Why is the longest flight mentioned in the first paragraph?
A.To compare the two different ways of transport.
B.To state the Trans-Siberian Railway is out of date.
C.To explain how long the Trans-Siberian Railway covers.
D.To show the great history of the Trans-Siberian Railway.
(2)Which of the following statements about the Trans-Siberian Railway is TRUE?
A.A non-stop journey is suggested.
B.It takes six full days to finish a non-stop trip.
C.Children are always free of charge on this trip.
D.It is the longest railway in the transportation world.
(3)Where does this passage probably come from?
A.A history textbook.
B.A science fiction.
C.A business journal.
D.A travel magazine.組卷:4引用:1難度:0.5 -
3.Here are some great people and their achievements.
Mary Anderson-windscreen wiper
Back on a freezing winter's day in 1902,Mary Anderson was travelling by train through New York City.Snow was falling,forcing the driver to stop repeatedly and get out to clear it.Each time the door opened,Mary suffered a gust of sub-zero air.She had an idea:Why not make some kind of a rubber blade that could be operated from inside the vehicle?And that's exactly what she did.
Josephine Cochrane-dishwasher
The dishwasher dates back even earlier to the 19th century,and to the dinner parties thrown by a lady called Josephine Cochrane.As a frequent host,she wanted a machine that could wash dishes faster than people.Her response was to develop what was to become the first commercially successful dishwasher.Interestingly,innovation was in her blood:her grandfather had invented the steamboat.
Stephanie Kwolek-Kevlar
Kevlar is a lightweight fibre used in bulletproof vests.The material is used by millions every day and has saved countless lives.The super tough fabric is also used in objects ranging from gloves to airplanes.Incredibly,its strength-to-weight ratio(比強度)is five times higher than steel.Again,it was invented by a woman,the American chemist Stephanie Kwolek,in 1964.
Grace Hopper-first compiler(編譯程序)
One of the most important inventions of the 20th century must surely be the computer program.The world of programming is unbalanced in terms of gender.Men vastly outnumber women,and take home around 30% more pay than their female counterparts on average.But back in the 1940s and 1950s,women were at the forefront of this new field.Grace Hopper is credited with inventing the first compiler in 1952,which serves as the bridge between code and the binary(二進制的)ones and zeros understood by computers.
(1)What do the inventions mentioned in the passage have in common?
A.Their inventors are all females.
B.They were all invented in the 19th century.
C.They were invented for the convenience of the inventors.
D.They were the most important inventions at their times.
(2)What do we know about Josephine Cochrane?
A.She invented the dishwasher as well as the steamboat.
B.She was greatly inspired by her grandfather.
C.It troubled her a lot to wash dishes after parties.
D.She invented the dishwasher at the request of her guests.
(3)What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Windscreen wipers came out earlier than dishwashers.
B.Mary Anderson's invention saved countless drivers' lives.
C.Grace Hopper is a pioneer in computer programs.
D.Kevlar is five times lighter than steel.組卷:1難度:0.5

Last Friday's evening,I went to watch the ballet "The White-haired Girl".Because I think ballet was more or less the same everywhere,I was absolute unprepared for its unique beauty.I was immersing the moment when the curtain rose.The performance brought about a lot from Chinese dance and music,but the Eastern influence on the ballet was clear.The production was full of colors and romantic symbols,and challenged my senses in many way.
