Six seconds after its launch in Virginia, US, an unmanned rocket bound for the International Space Station (ISS) exploded, disappointing people both on Earth and in space.

Hundreds of millions of dollars worth of cargo was destroyed in the Oct. 28 explosion due to An“equipment failure”, said Orbital Sciences, the company hired by NASA for the resupply mission.

The rocket was carrying a cargo ship loaded with 2,200 kilograms of supplies such as food, tools, parts, and experiments. Roughly a third of the cargo was a series of scientific investigations. Some of them were from high school students in the US. For example, 10 students from the Cristo Rey Jesuit College Preparatory School of Houston were conducting experiments about microgravity and put their samples on the rocket. “I know that failure is a part of science, but I really feel sorry for my students," science teacher Greg Adragna told the Houston, Chronicle .

Astronauts at the ISS felt a more urgent disappointment, however. The cargo included 617kg of food. Now they will have to rely on supplies from a Russian launch on Oct. 29.

Launched in 1998 and involving the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, and the member countries of the European Space Agency, the ISS is one of the most ambitious international collaborations in history. Currently, there are six astronauts at the station, five male and one female. Three are from Russia, two are from the US, and one is from Germany. They have lived together for about six months. The station gets regular resupplies from Earth, using unmanned spacecrafts. Food is always a big part of the supplies. Most of the food is frozen and ready to eat, and often tastes bad-somewhat like trying to eat when you have a heavy cold.

To make space life better, however, scientists have made breakthroughs. Earlier this year, Russian astronauts managed to grow a variety of crops aboard the station. Next year they are going to try to grow rice and other plants. And, as transporting water to space is expensive, astronauts are looking for ways to recycle water. "Astronauts on board the ISS already drink water distilled from sweat and urine<尿) ," Russian news agency RIA Novosti reported.

Is that the reason the astronauts were so disappointed not to get the water from the failed resupply mission, by any chance?

1. What is the author-s main purpose in writing the article?

A.To explain what caused the explosion of NASA-s unmanned rocket.

B.To inform us of the explosion of NASA-s unmanned rocket and its effects.

C.To tell us about astronauts lives at the International Space Station.

D.To tell us how the world reacted to the explosion of NASA-s unmanned rocket.

2. The underlined word “cargo” in the second paragraph is closet in meaning to

A. goods B. equipment

C. food supply D. investigation

3.How did teacher Greg Adragna feel about the explosion of the rocket?

A. Angry. B. Anxious.

C. Frustrated. D. Unconcerned.

4.We can conclude from the article that the situation seemed for astronauts on board the ISS when the rocket exploded.

A. hopeless B. interesting

C. depressing D. dangerous

5.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the ISS, according to the article?

A. Half of the astronauts at the ISS are from the US.

B. The ISS was set up by four countries.

C. The water that astronauts at the ISS drink is mainly made by recycling.

D. Most of the food astronauts eat at the ISS is frozen and tastes bad.

When Jeff Sparkman draws his cartoon superheroes with colored pencils, he often has to ask other people to tell him what color his masked men turned out to be because he's color-blind. Now, a new smart phone application (app) can help him figure out what colors he's using and how the picture looks to most everyone else.

The DanKam app, available for iPhone and Android for $2.99, is an application that turns the vague colors that one percent of the population with color-blindness sees into the "true" colors as everyone else sees them. In America, an estimated 32 million color-blind Americans—95% are males—can soon have their life improved.

“DanKam takes the stream of data coming in through the phone's camera and changes the colors slightly so they fall within the range that people who are color-blind see,”developer Dan Kaminsky told CNET. He came up with the idea after watching the 2009 film Star Trek with a color-blind friend.

It was then that he got to know more about colorblindness like its varying types and degrees. A vast majority, for instance, have trouble seeing red or green due to a genetic defect(遗传缺陷). Blue-yellow colorblindness, however, is rarer and develops later in life because of aging, illness or head injuries, etc. He started experimenting with one of the most common representations of points in the RGB color model. What the DanKam app attempts to do is to clean up the color space of the image or video signal so that colors can be visible to those suffering from viewing problems. “You can adjust the app to fit your needs. There is a range and not everyone who is color-blind sees things the same.” Says Kaminsky.

Sparkman, a copy editor at CNET, tried out the app and was pleased with the results. "It would be useful for dressing for a job interview," he said. But using it for his art is “the most practical application." It worked well on LED and other lights on electronic gadgets, which means Sparkman can now identify the power light on his computer display as green.

1.According to the first two paragraphs, we can know that DanKam ___________.

A. is designed to help people with colorblindness

B. can turn vague colors into real ones

C. is a phone used to help drawing pictures

D. appeared in the movie Star Trek

2.How does DanKam’s app work?

A. It puts LED and other lights on electronic gadgets.

B. It shows common representations of points in the RGB color model

C. It checks color-blind people’s types of degrees of colorblindness.

D. It changes the colors so that color-blind people can see them.

3.It can be inferred from the passage that colorblindness __________.

A. cannot be cured by any methods

B. is not necessarily inborn disease

C. is more commonly seen in women

D. makes people unable to tell any colors

4.The underlined word visible in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _________.

A. recognizable B. enjoyable

C. adjustable D. Portable

5.Which of the following is NOT included in the things that DanKam helps Sparkman with?

A. Choosing clothes.

B. Playing computer games

C. Drawing his pictures.

D. Handling electronic gadgets.
