　　(2024·合肥模擬)

　　China Completes First Manned Space DockingChina successfully achieved its first manned space docking, an important step in the country’s quest to launch a space station by around 2024. The Shenzhou-Ⅸspacecraft on Monday docked with China’s Tiangong-1 space laboratory. The mission’s three astronauts included China’s first woman in space, an air force pilot named Liu Yang.

　　China’s political leadership has heavily promoted this week’s mission as proof of the country’s growing power. Additionally, the Shenzhou-Ⅸmission reinforced China’s long-term aspirations for a manned space presence just as the U. S. has significantly drawn down its own manned space program and retired its ageing fleet of space shuttles.

　　The Shenzhou-Ⅸmission is the first time China has sent a person into space since 2008. It follows a China’s unmanned space docking last November and is the latest step in a 30-year-plan to assemble a space station by around 2024, part of an effort known as Project 921.

　　When Chinese leaders approved a plan for a space station in 1992, “Chinese space professionals believed they would be latecomers to an expanding human presence in low Earth orbit, ”said Gregory Kulacki, a senior analyst for the Union of Concerned Scientists, in a recent research note. “Ironically, by the time they finish their space station in the early 2024s, the Chinese might be the only people left up there. ”

　　Washington’s decision to end the shuttle program actually left Russia with the only one ever manned spaceflight. China’s space program, while decades behind the achievements of the U. S. and Russia, has made steady progress in recent years. Its planned space station is expected to come online around 2024, just as the $100 billion International Space Station is expected to cease operation. The U. S. , meanwhile, is hoping the private sector can pick up where the shuttle program left off. (300W)

　　A. This is the first space docking in Chinese history.

　　B. China sent its first woman into space.

　　C. It is regarded as proof of the country’s growing power.

　　D. It’s the first time China has sent a person into space.

　　2. What may happen in 2024 according to the passage?

　　A. America will stop its space research.

　　B. The Chinese might be the only people in space.

　　C. Russia may be the only one ever manned spaceflight.

　　D. China may end the Project 921.

　　3. Which of the following is the RIGHT order in time according to the text?

　　a. China succeeded its unmanned space docking.

　　b. Chinese leaders approved a plan for a space station.

　　c. China sent a person into space.

　　d. China succeeded its manned space docking.

　　A. abcd

　　B. cdba

　　C. bdca

　　D. bcad

　　4. We can learn from the last paragraph that　.

　　A. Washington decided to end its space program

　　B. the U. S. private sector will begin the shuttle program

　　C. China’s planned station is expected to the most advanced

　　D. International Space Station may stop operation in 2024

　　(2024·臨沂模擬)

　　Imagine an eco-conscious city where rooftops have been transformed into fertile, green gardens. It’s a place where every home is equipped with a system that recycles valuable water resources. In this town, protecting the planet is a way of life. That’s how Abby Sharp, 14, Wyatt Peery, 13, and Tom Krajnak, 14, saw their city of tomorrow. The vision won the eighth-graders from Bexley, Ohio, first prize at the 2009 National Engineers Week Future City Competition.

　　The annual design competition challenges middle school students to use engineering to deal with issues that affect the Earth. This year the competition focused on water conservation. Participants had to come up with ways to improve water use in the home. Kids from 38 middle schools across the country competed in the finals. The event took place from February 17~18 in Washington, D. C. . More than 30, 000 students entered the competition.

　　Abby, Wyatt and Tom call their winning city Novo Mondum. The name means “new world” in Latin. Novo Mondum sits on the coast of Iceland. The group chose the spot for its wealth of clean energy resources, such as geothermal(地熱的)energy and hydropower. Both sources use the power of nature to generate electricity. Geothermal energy draws heat from deep inside the Earth. Hydropower gets energy from flowing water. “Our city is very globally aware, ”Abby told TFK.

　　Students team up with a teacher and a volunteer engineer mentor(顧問)to develop their cities. Each group creates a fictional city on SimCity 4 Deluxe, a computer game that allows players to build virtual towns. Then they construct tabletop models of the cities and write essays describing their projects. The models must be made using recycled materials and cost no more than $100 to build. (297W)

　　5. What’s the main feature of the city designed by the three winners?

　　A. Making full use of water resources.

　　B. Turning rooftops into green gardens.

　　C. Protecting our home—the Earth.

　　6. It can be inferred that water conservation is　.

　　A. one of the problems that influence the Earth

　　B. the main theme of the 2009 Future City Competition

　　C. one of the issues for the participants to deal with abroad

　　D. an easy topic for all the students to design

　　7. The underlined word “hydropower” in Paragraph 3 means　.

　　A. electric power from burning oil

　　B. electric power from burning coals

　　C. electric power from deep inside the Earth

　　D. electric power from moving water
