    Six volunteers are about to find out what it would be like to live on Mars without ever leaving the Earth. Three men and three women will spend eight months living in a special place on the side of a volcano in Hawaii. They are part of an experiment that is designed to mimic（模仿）life on Mars. Their mission began on October 15, 2014. NASA says it could send astronauts to Mars as early as the 2030s. The mission would take more than two years, so NASA needs to know how people would react to living in a small group, isolated from the rest of the world, for such a long time. Some people may become depressed or bored living under those conditions. By studying people living in similar conditions here on Eares NASA hopes to learn how to choose the most suitable people for a space mission, and how to help them get along.

    They will live in a two-story building. The ground floor is about 86 square meters, roughly the size of a small two-bedroom apartment. It includes shared areas like kitchen, dining room, bathroom, laboratory and an exercise room. The upstairs is less than half the size of the downstairs. It contains another bathroom and six small bedrooms. The building is located in an abandoned quarry（采石场）about 2,400 meters up the side of Mauna Loa, the second biggest volcano in the world. It is constantly monitored for signs of volcanic activity. NASA chose the location because the appearance looks very similar to Mars.

    To make it more like being on Mars in the future, they are only able to communicate by email during the experiment. Meanwhile, there will be a 20-minute delay between the time when a message is sent and that when it is received. When they go outside, they will have to suit up in full spacesuits, just as if they were on Mars.

    The commander is Martha Lenio, a 34-year-old Canadian. During the mission, she will run experiments on growing food. The other members have backgrounds in physics and so on. None of them are astronauts.

    1.When will the six volunteers end their mission about mimicking life on Mars?

    A. On June 15, 2015. B. On October 15, 2015.

    C. On October 15, 2030. D. On June 15, 2032.

    2.What’s the main purpose of the experiment?

    A. To monitor signs of volcanic activity.

    B. To prepare for a space mission to Mars.

    C. To train the six people to become astronauts.

    D. To study the difference between men and women.

    3.Mauna Loa was chosen as the experimental site because ___________.

    A. it is located near a rocket base

    B. other people can hardly find the location

    C. its landscape is so much like that of Mars

    D. it is a safe place to conduct the experiment

    4. What can be inferred from the passage?

    A. Martha is a famous expert on agriculture.

    B. The six volunteers will be sent to Mars in 2030.

    C. All the experimental activities are done in doors.

    D. It takes about 40 minutes to get a reply to an email.

    The ocean is always moving：waves break on the surface, sea levels rise and fall with the tides, and currents flow below the surface. Although it looks as if the water in a wave is moving across the surface of the ocean, it is not. The water is actually moving up and down. This is why an object on top of a wave will bob up and down, but not move forward.

    When a wave reaches the shore, however, the water does move forward. It surges(前进 )onto the shore. This is because the “bottom” of the wave drags on the sand and the “top” continues on, crashing onto the shore. This crashing water is called the surf. Most waves are caused by wind blowing across the ocean's surface. The size of a wave depends on how fast and how far the wind blows over the surface and on the depth of the wave. Small winds can cause ripples, while strong winds create large hurricane waves.

    Along most shorelines. water levels rise and fall twice a day. These changes, called tides. are caused by the gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon. The ocean surface lifts, or bulges(凸出), in two places: on the side of Earth that faces the Moon and on the side of Earth that faces away from the Moon. Both bulges cause a high tide on nearby shorelines. At the same time that the high tides occur, low tides occur between the two bulges.

    Tides are also affected by the pull of the Sun, although the effect of the Sun is not as great as the effect of the Moon. When the Moon and Sun are lined up with Earth, the combined pull is the strongest, causing the highest high tides and the lowest low tides. These very high and very low tides are called spring tides. Weaker tides, called neap tides, happen when the Moon and the Sun are at right angles to Earth. High tides alternate with low tides. Along most shorelines, a high tide or low tide occurs about every six hours.

    1.The word “alternate” in the last paragraph means .

    A. appear suddenly

    B. bob up and down

    C. change or become quickly

    D. happen or follow one after another

    2.The best title for the passage is .

    A. The Moving Ocean B. Tides and Waves

    C. Ocean and Earth D. Waves and Currents

    Computer technology is still developing rapidly. The computer of the future will continue to increase in value and performance while decreasing in cost. It will become smaller, but faster and more powerful.

    It is possible to make some guesses about what the future of the computer will look like, based upon the types of technologies that are being developed now. A lot of progress has already been made in some of these new technologies, but some are still in their earliest stages and may not be ready for use for years. Two of the most interesting areas of computing that are currently being developed are quantum computing (量子计算) and nanotechnology (纳米技术).

    Quantum computing is one possibility for the future of the computer that could make computers run far faster than even the quickest computers do today. Quantum computers could be able to do what modern supercomputers are unable to do by using transistors that are able to take on many states at the same time.

    Nanotechnology could also change the face of computing, by creating computers that could be very powerful, though they are tiny in size. These computers could be incorporated (并入) into everyday objects, including electrical appliances (电器), clothes and even the human body. We will be able to use computers in new and unimaginable ways. They will become a part of our lives rather than simply being a box that is used only for specific purposes, such as work.

    Quantum computing and nanotechnology will be able to play new roles, which will make us live greener lives, as well as enjoy better health and happier lives.

    1.Which of the following can NOT describe the computer of the future properly?

    A. Much smaller.

    B. Much faster.

    C. More powerful.

    D. Less valuable.

    2.According to the text, quantum computing _____.

    A. has been put in use so far

    B. can make computers run by themselves

    C. can reduce the cost of computers

    D. will work by using transistors

    3.We can learn from the text that nanotechnology will _____.

    A. create much smaller computers

    B. be used in electrical appliances and clothing

    C. change the structure of computers

    D. make computers just serve specific purposes

    4.The text is mainly about _____.

    A. what nanotechnology is

    B. what quantum computing is

    C. what the future of the computer is

    D. what future computers can bring us

    Jeanne Calment, a French woman, became a record breaker on 17 October, 1995, when at the age of 120 years and 238 days, she became the longest-lived human being on record. A Japanese man died in 1986 at the age of 120 years and 237 days.

    Jeanne Calment lives in a small old people’s home in the south of France; her husband, her only child and her grandson have all died. She is nearly blind and deaf and is always in a wheelchair, but her doctor describes her as being more like a 90-year-old woman in good health than someone of 120. She still has a lively sense of humor. When asked on her 120th birthday what she expected of the future, she replied: A very short one. She also remarked that she thought the good Lord had forgotten all about her.So what is the key to a long life? According to some doctors, diet, exercise and no smoking are the three important factors. Jeanne Calment has followed two of the tips. She has always eaten a healthy diet, and she used to do exercise every day until she broke her leg at the age of 115. However, until recently she drank two glasses of strong red wine a day, and she does smoke (now only a little). Besides, Jeanne Calment might have got very good genes from her parents. Her father lived to the age of 94 and her mother to 86.

    A local lawyer bought her house when she was 80 under an agreement that he would pay her some money every year until her death. It must have seemed a good move at the time, but so far the lawyer has paid her at least three times the value of the house. Every year on her birthday, Jeanne Calment sends him a card saying: Sorry, I’m still alive!

    1.How does Jeanne Calment feel about her old age?

    A. She is miserable and unhappy.

    B. She feels she is going to die very soon.

    C. She would like to live much younger.

    D. She is cheerful and humorous.

    2.Which of the following word could best replace the word “move” in the fourth paragraph?

    A. trick B. deal C. march D. sport

    3.Why does Jeanne Calment say “Sorry, I’m still alive” to the lawyer every year on her birthday?

    A. Because the lawyer has paid her much more money than the value of the house.

    B. Because she has asked the lawyer to pay her more rent than they first agreed.

    C. Because she had an agreement at 80 with the lawyer which was to her advantage.

    D. Because the house she sold to the lawyer is worth the money he has already paid.
