When the Apollo astronauts (宇航員) landed on the Moon in 1969, millions of people were rather sad. The person to blame for this was an artist named Chesley Bonestell. For many years, Bonestell had been creating beautifully detailed paintings of the Moon and planets. Viewers of his artwork were unhappy because the real Moon did not look like Bonestell’s pictures of it.

As a space artist, Bonestell tried to make his drawings look exciting and as true as the Moon is. He worked closely with astronomers and scientists to get the most up-to-date scientific information available. But in the 1940s and 1950s, no one had ever seen another planet up close. Yet Bonestell’s paintings looked so real that some people thought they were photographs.

Even though Bonestell was interested in astronomy, he did not start out as a space artist. As a young man he studied architecture — the art and science of designing and making buildings. In 1938 Bonestell became a special effects artist in Hollywood. It was here that he learned he could improve his paintings by following the methods used in the movies.

In 1944, a popular magazine published a series of Bonestell’s paintings of the planet Saturn. He drew Saturn as if it were seen by someone standing on each of the planet’s moons. The results were dazzling. Within a few years, Bonestell’s artwork was appearing regularly in magazines and books on astronomy and space flight.

Many of Bonestell’s artworks had been right all along. But the biggest surprise was the Moon. Someone asked Bonestell what he was thinking when he saw the first pictures from the Moon. “I thought how wrong I was!” he said. “My mountains were sharp (陡峭的), and they aren’t on the Moon.”

But he shouldn’t have felt bad. No space artist had ever before taken so many people to so many faraway worlds. In the years just before the first manned space flights, Bonestell’s artwork prepared people for the amazing space adventure to come.

1.Bonestell made his space drawings ________.

A. from a very early age

B. by copying photographs

C. with the help of scientists

D. in order to make a living

2.The underlined word “dazzling” in Paragraph 4 can best be replaced by “________”.

A. doubtfulB. wonderfulC. terribleD. worrying

3.Bonestell’s success lay in the fact that ________.

A. he created a new drawing skill

B. he helped finish the first space flight

C. he made space travel more popular

D. He helped bring space closer to people

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. The space art of Chesley Bonestell

B. The first men on the Moon

C. The journeys of the Apollo astronauts

D. Spacewalking: through an astronaut’s eyes

Visitors worry that London is an expensive city but there really are so many free things to do here. The following ideas should get you started.

All of London's major museums are free, but most offer some special exhibitions for a fee. My favorite is the Museum of London where you can learn the history of London from Roman times to today. And I love the Geffrye Museum which shows English domestic interiors(內(nèi)務(wù)) and helps bring to life what it was really like to live in London.

I regularly hear people tell me the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous(巨大的) and Kensington Gardens nearby includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Playground and the Peter Pan Statue.

No visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30am every day in the summer and every other day in the winter. Get there early and view the spectacle(壯觀的場面) from outside the front gates.

Trafalgar Square is one of Britain's greatest visitor attractions and was designed by John Nash in the 1820s and constructed in the 1830s. This iconic square has many sights to see including Nelson's Column and the National Gallery. It is both a tourist attraction and the main focus for political demonstrations. Every December, Norway donates a marvelous(非凡的) Christmas tree, to thank Britain for liberation from the Nazis.

1.Where can visitors find the Peter Pan Statue?

A. in Regent's Park.B. in St. James's Park.

C. in Hyde Park.D. in Kensington Gardens.

Hank Viscardi was born without legs. He had not legs but stumps(殘肢) that could be fitted with a kind of special boots. People stared at him with cruel interest. Children laughed at him and called him ‘Ape Man’ (猿人) because his arms practically dragged on the ground.

Hank went to school like other boys. His grades were good and he needed only eight years to finish his schooling instead of the usual twelve. After graduating from school, he worked his way through college. He swept floors, waited on table, or worked in one of the college offices. During all this busy life, he had been moving around on his stumps. But one day the doctor told him even the stumps were not going to last much longer. He would soon have to use a wheel chair.

Hank felt himself got cold all over. However, the doctor said there was a chance that he could be fitted with artificial legs(假腿). Finally a leg maker was found and the day came when Hank stood up before the mirror. For the first time he saw himself as he has always wanted to be—a full five feet eight inches tall. By this time he was already 26 years old.

Hank had to learn to use his new legs. Again and again he marched the length of the room, and marched back again. There were times when he fell down on the floor, but he pulled himself up and went back to the endless marching. He went out on the street. He climbed stairs and learned to dance. He built a boat and learned to sail it.

When World War II came, he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job. He took the regular training. He marched and drilled along with the other soldiers. Few knew that he was legless. This was the true story of Hank Viscardi, a man without legs.

They may be small, and unable to have an adult conversation, but babies are proving their collective cleverness.

While your baby still might not be able to speak, he or she knows about you’re feeling down. Babies as young as 5 months of age can distinguish an exciting tune from a sad one, according to a study published in 2014 in the journal Neuron.

Speaking of music, it seems that babies can’t resist it. Not only are their ears sensitive to the beats, babies can actually dance in time to them, according to a study published in 2010. To test their dancing ability, the researchers played recordings of classical music and speech to them, and videotaped the results. The babies moved their arms, hands, legs, feet, and heads much more in response to the music than to speech. The findings suggest this dancing ability is innate(天生的) in humans.

Babies can apparently learn even while asleep. As newborn babies spend most of their time sleeping, this newfound ability might be crucial(至關(guān)重要的) for them to adapt rapidly to the world around them, and help ensure survival, the researchers say. The study was published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Deciding whether another person is helpful or harmful is crucial in choosing friends — and that ability starts being visible early. Kiley Hamlin of Yale University showed both 6– and 10–month–olds some anthropomorphized(人格化的) shapes, in which one shape helped another climb a hill, while a third shaped pushed the climber down. The little ones then got to choose which shape they preferred. For both age groups, most babies chose the helper shapes. This character–judging ability could be the first step in the formation of morals, Hamlin says.

1.What does the third paragraph mainly say?

A. Babies are born to dance.

B. Babies prefer classical music.

C. Babies love listening to music.

D. Babies can tell different tunes apart.

2.What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Babies can understand emotions.

B. Babies value friendship very much.

C. It’s hard for babies to adapt to the world around them.

D. Babies show no reaction to speech.

3.Kiley Hamlin found that babies ________.

A. love to make friends

B. learn nothing while asleep

C. can tell right from wrong

D. like watching anthropomorphized shows

Hiking can be a pleasant as well as a not so pleasant adventure. You will have to take a number of measures so that your hike is a pleasant experience.

Hiking Tip 1 — Start Early

Most hiking experts hold the opinion that it is rather sensible to start hiking at 3 or 4 in the morning, even if it is a full-day hike. Since most hikes are conducted at high altitudes, starting off early will make sure that you are back down during the afternoon hours.

Hiking Tip 2 — Be Light

Since we are anyway talking about the load you will carry, another important hiking tip is to carry fewer loads. If you are going on a hiking trail on a familiar path, you will need reduced survival items, as chance that you will get lost or hurt yourself on these hiking trails is little.

Hiking Tip 3 — Reduce the Number of Breaks

Once you start your hike, you should make sure you do not take too many breaks. You will need to maintain a consistent speed and minimize the number of stops which you take. Speed and rest stops help distinguish an inexperienced hiker from an expert hiker. An inexperienced hiker will have bursts of speed and energy and it will be followed by rest stops. This results in slowing down the general speed.

Hiking Tip 4 — Tip for Children

Do you plan to take your kids along with you on the hiking trail? Well, then you must be looking for hiking tips for kids! You will have to educate them about nature and also get them into an exercise routine before taking them on a hike. Kids have a tendency to run in the beginning. This exhausts them and they have to be carried, which is certainly not the best of ideas.

1.You are advised to start hiking early in order to ________.

A. finish your hiking in a day

B. enjoy your hiking completely

C. avoid getting tired

D. get back down early

2.What should you do if you are going hiking on an unfamiliar trail?

A. Carry enough survival items.

B. Keep a high speed.

C. Start hiking in the afternoon.

D. Carry fewer loads.

3.According to the text, inexperienced hikers ________.

A. don’t keep a consistent speed

B. will easily get lost

C. choose well-established paths

D. don’t stop to rest

4.If you want to take a kid for hiking, you should ________.

A. make sure of his safety

B. prepare him for it

C. educate him about hiking

D. give him some tips
