The first part of a new science-fiction series (系列劇)was shown on NBC last night. Star Trek is about a spacecraft(宇宙飛船)which travels faster than the speed of light. The show is developed from three ideas about the 22nd century. First, we’ll find other life forms great tools which will make amazing things possible.

Let’s think about these predictions. If we find life forms on other planets, will they be intelligent? I hope so. But we human beings might not be friendly – I don’t think we’ll believe in the idea of peace one hundred years from now. But this is science fiction, so we can be optimistic! And Star Trek’s idea of life in the future is ‘communicators’. And we will be ablt to have conversatins with people who are on because you’ll have an electronic notebook. And if you get ill, the doctor won’t have to examine you – a machine will ‘read’ your body. The strangest manchine includes a ‘teleport’ which will take people to a different placein a second!

The ideas are interesting, and in my opinion there’s only one problem with star trek: the acting. The TV company (公司)will have to get better actors. If they do that, the show might be a success. If the acting doesn’t improve, Star Trek won’t last for more than one series. Of course, my prediction may be wrong. I can’t see into the future!

1. What is Star Trek?

A. A TV play. B. A popular song.

C. A spacecraft. D. An alien.

2.What does the underlined word “optimistic” mean?

A. Lucky and happy.

B. Hopeful and confident.

C. Helpful and creative.

D. Thankful and popular.

3.Which would be the best title for the passage?

A. Aliens on Other Planets. B. The Idea of Human Life.

C. A Science Fiction. D. A New Series about Future.

閱讀與回答問題

Smog is a big problem in many Chinese cities. But it seems that besides wearing a mask, few of us know what has caused the smog and what to do to beat it. Chai Jing, former news anchor with Chinese Central Television, discussed the questions in her documentary Under the Dome (穹頂之下).

The 103-minute film was released on major Chinese video-sharing websites on Feb 28. In the film, Chai visits polluted places and talks to officials and scientists. She says that burning too much coal and oil are the main causes of PM2.5 and smog.

To make things worse, according to Chai, the coal and oil we are burning is of poor quality and doesn’t meet the standards for environmental protection. So Chai says more harmful gas and particles (顆粒) have been produced to pollute the air. To solve the problem, Chai suggests that we should clean our coal and oil or replace(代替) them with cleaner energy such as natural gas.

In her film, Chai also suggested that we should do something to help control smog too. For example, she says we can live a greener life by using more public transportation. Or if we see things that harm the environment, we will try to stop it. In one scene from the film, Chai saw a dirt mound in a building site exposed in the air, she asked the person in charge to cover it. When she saw a restaurant cooking without any suitable filter facilities (過濾設(shè)備), she called the hotline 12369. The restaurant installed(安裝) the filter a week later.

Chen Jining, the new minister of environmental protection, praised Chai. “This film encourages ordinary people to care for the environment. This is what we need in the future.”

1.Many people in China know the causes of smog, don’t they?

________________________________________________________________________

2.How long does the film Under the Dome last?

3.What are the main causes of PM2.5 and smog?
