Astronauts on shorter shuttle missions(使命)often work very long days. Tasks are scheduled so tightly that break times are often used to finish the day's work. This type of schedule is far too demanding for long missions on the International Space Station( ISS). 1SS crewmembers usually live in space for at least a quarter of a year. They work five days on and two days off to mimic the normal way they do things on the Earth as much as possible. Weekends give the crew valuable time to rest and do a few hours of housework. They can communicate with family and friends by email， Internet phone and through private video conferences.

While astronauts cannot go to a baseball game or a movie in orbit,there are many familiar activities that they can still enjoy. Before a mission，the family and friends of each ISS crewmember put together a collection of family photos，messages，videos and reading material for the astronauts to look at when they will be floating 370 kilometers above the Earth. During their mission，the crew also receives care packages with CDs,books, magazines, photos and letters. And as from early 2010, the Internet became available on the ISS,giving astronauts the chance to do some "web surfingf沖浪)"in their personal time. Besides relaxing with these more common entertainments,astronauts can simply enjoy the experience of living in space.

Many astronauts say that one of the most relaxing things to do in space is to look out the window and stare at the universe and the Earth. Both the shuttle and the ISS circle the planet several times each day, and every moment offers a new view of the Earth' s vast land mass and oceans.

The Greeks had long kept certain more or less formal relations with the people of Macedonia (馬其頓） Now it happened，just when Sparta and Athens had finished their disastrous war，that Macedonia was ruled by an extraordinarily clever man named Philip. He admired the Greek spirit but he looked down on their lack of self-control in political affairs. It angered him to see a perfectly good people waste its men and money upon fruitless quarrels. So he settled the difficulty by making himself the master of all Greece and then he asked his new subjects to join him on a voyage which he meant to pay to Persia in return for the visit which Xerxes had paid the Greeks 150 years before.  

Unfortunately Philip was murdered before he could start this well-prepared expedition(遠征). The task of avenging(報仇)the destruction of Athens was left to Philip's son Alexander,the beloved pupil of Aristotle，wisest of all Greek teachers.

Alexander left Europe in the spring of334 BC. Seven years later he reached India. In the meantime he had destroyed Phoenicia(腓尼基，地中海古國），the old rival of the Greek merchants. He had con?quered Egypt and had been worshipped by the people of the Nile valley as the son and heir of the Pharaohs(法老). He had defeated the last Persian king，he had overthrown the Persian Empire，he had given orders to rebuild Babylon，he had led his troops into the heart of the Himalayan mountains and had made the entire world a Macedonian province and dependency. Then he stopped and announced even more ambitious plans.

The newly formed Empire must be brought under the influence of the Greek mind. The people must be taught the Greek language~~they must live in cities built after a Greek model. The Alexandrian soldier now turned school-master. The military camps of yesterday became the peaceful centres of the newly imported Greek civilisation. Higher and higher did the flood of Greek manners and Greek customs rise，when suddenly Alexander was stricken with a fever and died in the old palace of King Hammurabi of Babylon in the year 323 BC.

His Empire did not long survive him. A number of ambitious generals divided the territory among themselves. But they too remained faithful to the dream of a great world brotherhood of Greek and Asiatic ideas and knowledge. They maintained their independence until the Romans came.

(   ) 8. The first 3 paragraphs are aimed at telling readers about      

A.  the Greece's relationship with Macedonia

B.  Alexander's father's achievements

C.  Greek's lack of communication with the outside

D.  the background of Alexander's expedition

(   ) 9. The underlined word "subjects" can be replaced with      

A. targets    B. programs C. citizens    D. themes

(   ) 10. It can be implied that Philip organized a voyage to Persia      

A. to pay a return visit    B. to avenge the destruction of Athens

C. to start a well-prepared expedition D. to spread Greek culture

(   ) 11. What happened as a result of Alexander' s expedition?

A.   India became an independent part of Macedonia.

B.   Phoenicia was destroyed by Greek merchants.

C.   Egypt was conquered by the Pharaohs.

D.   The Persian Empire was overturned.

(   ) 12. We can guess that Alexander's most ambitious plan after 327 BC was       

A.  to bring the newly formed Empire under the Greek influence

B.  to distribute the territory among the generals

C.  to turn the soldiers into school teachers

D.  to build prosperous cities for Greeks
