All of England
In fact, literary landmarks are so common in London that “blue plaques(木牌)” have been introduced to show off well-known literary sites. One of the more interesting plaques can be found at 221B Baker Street-the apartment of famous fictional detective Sherlock Holmes (although we can be pretty sure that he never actually stayed there).
Outside of London, it is possible to take organized tours around the countryside where England best writers grew up. If you join a Charles Dickens or Jane Austen tour, you’ll have the unique opportunity to visit the locations of famous fictional scenes. But to truly experience literature in person, you can visit Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare, and watch nightly performances of his plays.
Shanghai, China
Shanghai is a really charming city, where — underneath the surface of the city — one can find some real literary treasures. One star of Shanghai literature is LU Xun, a Writer often celebrated as the father of modern Chinese literature, who spent his last nine years in the city. It’s necessary, then, for all Shanghai literary travelers to visit Lu Xun Park, which features a memorial hall dedicated to the great writer.
Another place worth visiting is the old neighborhood of poet Xu Zhimo. Xu is well known for bringing “New Wave” romanticist poetry into Chinese works. Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore once stayed at his home while visiting Shanghai.
Rome, Italy
The English romantic poet John Keats once traveled to Rome in the hope that the Mediterranean air would cure his tuberculosis(肺结核). It didn’t, and Keats died within three months.
Despite the fact that Keat’s visit was a quick one, Rome has a reminder of it — the Keats-Shelley House. Keats’ former home has been transformed into a small museum, complete with a working library.
What’s more, just across the street is the Antico Caffe Greco, a cafe frequented by famous authors like Charles Dickens, Loud Byron, Henry James, Hans Christian Andersen, Many Shelley...We could go on, but you probably get the idea that this is somewhere any literary traveler has to go.
1.This passage is mainly about ________ in different places.
A. cultural introduction B. famous poets
C. scenic spots D. literary sites
2.In England, ________.
A. Shakespeare’s plays are performed anywhere
B. Sherlock Holmes once lived in London for a short time
C. blue plaques are pinned to mark the literary sites
D. June Austen’s former residence is in London

B. Tagore once visited Xu Zhimo
C. Xu Zhimo created realistic Chinese poetry
D. Lu Xun spent all his lifetime in Shanghai

A telescope, called Gaia, is being designed by astronomers in Europe, and it couldn’t be more different from Pan-STARRS, which is another telescope being designed. While Pan-STARRS will be looking for asteroids (小行星) and comets headed for Earth, Gaia will be looking at our entire galaxy (银河系).
Gaia is designed to draw a map of the Milky Way, our home galaxy. Just as a map of your town gives you a picture of where things are located, Gaia’s map of the galaxy will tell astronomers where the stars are. Over five years, Gaia will observe (观察) about a billion stars and other objects in our galaxy. Each object will be observed about 70 times.
Gaia will be sent into space connected to a rocket. It contains two telescopes, each focused at a different angle (角度). These two telescopes act like Gaia’s “eyes”. The reason why humans can see things in 3D is that we have two eyes focused on the same object, at slightly different angles. By using two telescopes like eyes, Gaia can produce the first 3D map of the positions of the stars it views.
Gaia, which is to be sent into space, will be a powerful telescope. If you were to use it on Earth, for example, you could stand 600 miles away from your best friends and still get a clear picture of their hair.
Gaia is one of more than a dozen telescopes being designed by scientists right now. The next generation of telescopes will reveal new parts of our universe that will seem surprising. The universe, with all its planets, stars and other strange objects, is a puzzle with pieces that we can see by using powerful telescopes.
1.How many different angles can Gaia focus at each time?
A. 2. B. 3.
C. 4. D. 5.
2.The map to be drawn by Gaia ______.
A. can show every building on Earth
B. can show you where your town is
C. will just show the stars around Earth
D. will show where the stars are in our home galaxy
3.What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. What Gaia will do in space.
B. When Gaia will start to work.
C. How powerful Gaia will be.
D. What Gaia will do to Earth.
4.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggests that the next generation of telescopes _______.
A. seem very surprising to scientists
B. will not be put into use in a short time
C. will just look at new things in universe
D. will be more powerful than the old generations

Bottled water is a booming industry in New Zealand, but it’s terrible for the environment —each bottle thrown away adding to the 190,000 tons of plastic New Zealanders throw into landfills each year.
But now one company has created water storage that they hope will prove to be just as convenient as a plastic bottle—but contains no actual plastic.
Skipping Rock Labs make Oohos, flexible membranes filled with water that are constructed using a seaweed extract—meaning they, re totally edible and biodegradable, wrapping and all.
There aren’t any known side effects from digesting the membranes, which are tasteless—though Ooho! says flavors can be added to make them more appetizing.
The company took to crowdfunding site CrowdCube with the idea, and it has since gone viral— with more than 900 investors bagging them A£ 751,700 to develop and launch the Ooho! balls ( $ 1.35 million).
Skipping Rock Labs create the balls by dipping ice into brown algae and calcium chloride, with the membrane taking shape around the ice—and while that may sound complicated, the company says it, s more cost-effective than producing a plastic bottle.
A layer atop the membrane can be peeled off just before drinking, for hygiene purposes. Skipping Rock Labs are hoping their new product takes off—and that it starts to put a dent into the plastic packaging industry.
1.The product Oohos made by the company Skipping Rock Labs has the following good points except that .
A. it is non-plastic B. it is edible
C. it is biodegradable D. it is expensive to make
2.How does the company make their idea work in practice?
A. By working with other companies. B. By advertising their samples.
C. By crowdfunding through a website. D. By borrowing money from the bank.
3.What does Paragraph 6 mainly tell us about?
A. Why the company made their product.
B. Where the company made their product.
C. How the company’s product was made.
4.What section of a newspaper will most probably carry this article?
A. Environment. B. Opinion.
C. Politics. D. Agriculture.

As is known to us, fewer and fewer students do sports regularly, what makes them weak and easily tiring. There are many reasons for this. First of all, some of the students complain that they have too much homeworks, resulted in less time to take exercise. Besides, some of them think that it is very difficult for them to keep doing exercise, because it is a very hard thing. Because lack of physical activities, many students are in poorly health. I suggested that our school should take measures to encourage more students to take a part in sports. For us students, no matter how busy they are, it is necessary to spare any time to do exercise.
