D. Answer the question.

The world’s first space travel

Have you ever dreamed of travelling in space like an astronaut? If your answer is “yes”, you will be happy to hear that the world’s first space hotel will welcome customers by 2022.

The space hotel plan was developed by a company in the US. It is named “Aurora Station”. The hotel will host six people at a time, including（包括） two crew members, for a 12-day trip of space travel. It will orbit（繞軌道而行） about 213,800 metres above the Earth and circle our blue planet every 90 minutes.

The station itself will be about 10 meters long and 4.2 metres wide, or about the size of a private jet. Guests in the hotel will be able to experience zero gravity, watch the sun rise 16 times per day, and take part in research experiments. They can also have video chats with their family and friends on the Earth.

Then how much does this amazing travel cost? It will be at an astronomical price--$9.5 million dollars. “We are selling the experience of being an astronaut,” said the company CEO. Potential（潛在的，可能的） guests will need to have a three-month training before going into space.

1.The world’s first space hotel will open by 2022, won’t it?

2.How many guests will the space hotel host at a time?

3.How large will the “Aurora Station” be?

4.How long will potential guests need to be trained before going into space?

5.Would you like to travel in space? Why or why not?

“You have saved my horse,” Queen Olivia told the young boy standing before her. “Now you shall have a prize.” Peter nervously ran his fingers through his brown hair. The frightened horse had run past him as he worked in the field that morning. He would have helped it whether it belonged to the queen or not. But he had to admit that getting a prize was nice. Two of the queen’s pages ( 侍從 ) appeared. One carried a small pillow with a mirror sitting on top. Red jewels shining on the top of the mirror’s silver frame ( 鏡框 ) . The other page carried a wooden cage with a clucking （咯咯叫）chicken inside it.

“Only one prize can be yours,” The queen said. “Choose wisely.” “That’s easy,” Peter said. “I’ll take the chicken.” Some of the people in the court laughed. It was clear that they thought he had made a foolish choice.

“And why did you choose the chicken?” the queen asked. “Well, I don't know much about jewels and things,” Peter answered. “But I do know about chickens. The chicken will provide eggs family for a long while.”

Queen Olivia smiled. “Then you did make a wise choice,” she said. “That mirror may look beautiful. But the jewels you see are only colored glass, and the frame is painted silver. The chicken is much more valuable.” Peter took the chicken. Then he said. “Thank you.”

“You are a smart child,” the queen said. “I could use a smart boy to help take care of my horses. Would you like a job?” Peter smiled. “Thank you!” he said. A job for the queen paid well. Now his family would eat well for the rest of their lives——all because he had chosen a chicken!

People who have been to colleges may have written graduation papers or other kinds of papers during their four-year college life. It isn’t an easy thing for many college students, even teachers. However, a new study suggests that many of today’s college students have never experienced the challenge of writing very long papers. This may not be good news. Higher education can test a person’s academic（學(xué)業(yè)的） abilities in many ways. Most study programs require research, class discussions, and group projects. But that used to be one of the most important parts of higher education for years in the US. For example, if you asked almost any professor or student, they would likely tell you that writing was one of the skills most often examined at colleges and universities. College students should master（掌握） this skill, as it may be helpful for their work in the future.

The study includes data（數(shù)據(jù)） collected from 1,140 students at four-year colleges and universities in the US. The students were asked about the kinds of long-form writing they had done and the amount of writing training they had received. Nearly one third of them had never been required to write a paper or over.

James Moses is the president of Primary Research Group. He says ten pages or over might seem like an unnecessarily large amount of writing, especially for students in fields like Maths or science. In fact, he argues, many students avoid longer papers by choosing subjects in which they are less likely to be required.

Moses says students are likely to be attracted to those fields because many of today’s highest paying jobs are at big technology companies. But he says that many students fail to understand that there is still a great need for skilled writers in the job market. And long-form writing tasks do more than measuring how much a person can write about any given thing. They are helpful to students in many ways.

Dan Melzer, a writing teacher in University of California, agrees. He says long-form writing tasks can teach useful skills even in fields that may not seem to have to do with writing.

1.What does the new study mainly show?

A.Higher education can test many students’ abilities.

B.Long writing tasks are easier for college students.

C.Higher education pays too much attention to long papers.

D.Long writing tasks are less common at American colleges.

2.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A.Writing long papers.

B.Completing group projects.

C.Testing students’ academic abilities.

D.Doing research for students’ programs.

3.According to Moses, how do many students avoid longer papers?

A.By writing several short ones to replace them.

B.By looking for jobs at big technology companies.

C.By choosing subjects not requiring them strictly.

D.By going to some universities of science and technology.

4.What’s Mose’s opinion on long-form writing tasks?

A.They are necessary for skilled writers.

B.They are still useful for college students.

C.They are not attractive in the technology field.

D.They are not helpful in Maths and science fields.

5.What would the text most probably talk about next?

A.Why long writing tasks are difficult.

B.How students can improve their writing skills.

C.How long writing tasks can test a student’s abilities.

D.Why long writing tasks are useful in certain fields.

Gal Gadot, a beautiful actress, is from Israel and as we all know, Gal Gadot made Wonder Woman, a popular superhero. The movie Wonder Woman was very hot all over the world last year. Gadot played an excellent woman superhero who helps to stop the World War I.

Last year, Gadot, a 33-year-old actress, was included in Time Magazine’s 2018 list of the 100 Most Influential（有影響力的）People. She was praised for showing Wonder Woman’s power and her kind heart. She helped to change people’s impressions on the women by playing the role successfully in the movie. Gadot believes that women can be strong and brave because her family always told her that women are valuable and powerful. She was also taught to be hopeful and positive at a young age.

This positive life attitude encouraged Gadot to follow her heart when making future life choices. At the age of 18, she got a chance to be a model. But she didn’t think it was the right time for her to do this kind of work. Instead, she served in the army for two years. Then she entered a university to study law because she loved it. Later, a director invited her to attend a movie interview which made her get the role of Wonder Woman. She realized it was a good chance to develop her career and influence other women. So she worked hard for eight months to train and build enough muscle for the role. In the end, she succeeded in making her character and made progress in her life.

Gadot works hard for her life and her experiences influence other women a lot. She is not only a superhero in the movie but also a hero in the real world. She is going to make herself better. So I believe she will succeed in her career in the future.

b. She refused to be a model but served in the army when she was 18.

c. She trained herself and built enough muscle for the role.

d. She went to a movie interview and got the role of Wonder Woman.

A.d-a-c-b B.b-d-c-a C.d-b-c-a D.b-d-a-c

4.Why did Gadot accept the role of Wonder Woman?

A.Because she knew it can help her career and encourage other women.
