Space is where our future is — trips to the Moon, Mars and beyond. Most people would think that aside from comets (彗星) and stars, there is little else out there. But, since our space journey started we have left so much rubbish there that scientists are now concerned that if we don't clean it up, we may all be in deadly danger.The first piece of space junk was created in 1964, when the American satellite Vanguard I stopped operating and lost its connection with the ground center. However, since it kept orbiting around the Earth without any consequences, scientists became increasingly comfortable abandoning things that no longer served any useful purpose in space.It is estimated that there are now over 500,000 pieces of man-made trash orbiting the Earth at speeds of up to 17,500 miles per hour. The junk varies from tiny pieces of paint chipped off rockets to cameras, huge fuel tanks, and even odd items like the million-dollar tool kit that astronaut Heidemarie Stefanyshyn Piper lost during a spacewalk.The major problem with the space trash is that it may hit working satellites and damage traveling spacecraft. Moreover, pieces of junk may crash with each other and break into pieces which fall back to the Earth. To avoid this, scientists have invented several ways for clearing the sky. Ground stations have been built to monitor larger pieces of space trash to prevent them from crashing into working satellites or space shuttles. Future plans include a cooperative effort among many nations to stop littering in space and to clean up the trash already there.24. Which of the following was probably the first piece of man-made space trash?A. a broken satellite.B. a camera.C. a tool kit.D. a fuel tank25. Why were scientists NOT concerned about space trash in the beginning?A. It did not result in any problems.B. It was millions of miles away from the Earth.C. It no longer served any useful purpose.D. It was regarded as similar to comets and stars.26. Which of the following statements is TRUE about space junk?A. It never changes position.B. It is huge, heavy machines.C. It floats slowly around the Earth.D. It may cause problems for space shuttles.27. What has been done about the space trash problem?A. Ground stations are built to store the trash properly in space.B. Many nations have worked together to stop polluting space.C. Large pieces of space trash are being closely watched.D. Scientists have cleaned up most of the trash.CGreat news! It came from a neighboring state, where the family’s only surviving relative lived. It was Boris’ relative — a distant relative by the name of Edgar, seventy and single. Edgar now wrote to Boris, saying he should shortly die, and should leave him thirty thousand dollars, cash; not for love, but because money had given him most of his troubles, and he wished to place it where there was good hope that it would continue its evil work. The bequest(遗产) would be found in his will, and would be officially handed over provided that Bois should be able to prove to the executors (遗嘱执行人).As soon as Jody had partially recovered from the strong emotions created by the letter, she sent someone to the relative’s home and subscribed for the local paper.For the rest of the day Boris made confusion with his books, and Jody could not keep her mind on her affairs, not even take up a flower-pot or book or a stick of wood without forgetting what she had intended to do with it. For both were dreaming.“Thirty thousand dollars!”All day long Jody was absorbed in planning how to invest it, Boris in planning how to spend it.There was no romance-reading that night. The children took themselves away early, for their parents were silent, disturbed, and strangely unentertaining. Two pencils had been busy during that hour —note-making; in the way of plans. It was Boris who broke the stillness at last. He s aid, with excitement, “Ah, it’ll be grand, Jody! Out of the first thousand we’ll have a horse and a small car for summer, and a small boat and a skin lap-robe for winter.”Jody responded with decision and calmness.“You can spend a part of it. But the whole of the capital must be put right to work.“Why, yes. Yes, of course. Have you got it invested yet?”“No, there’s no hurry about that; I must look around first, and think, er…, I’ve turned it over twice; once in oil and once in wheat.”“Why, Jody, it’s splendid! What does it amount to?”“I think — well, to be on the safe side, about a hundred and eighty thousand clear, though it will probably be more.”“My! Isn’t it wonderful? Good heaven! Luck has come our way at last, Jody!”Then they went up to bed, but they left the candle burning in the sitting room. They did not remember until they were undressed; then Boris was so calm that just watched it burn; he said they could afford it, if it was a thousand. But Jody went down and put it out.A good job, too; for on her way back she hit on a plan that would turn the hundred and eighty thousand into half a million before it had had time to get cold.28. Why would Edgar like to give all his money to Boris?A. Because Boris was Edgar’s only relative alive.B. Because Boris and his wife are good at investing.C. Because Edgar loved Boris and his family deeply.D. Because Edgar wanted his money to continue its function.29. What do we know about Boris and Jody after receiving the letter?A. They had a big ambition to spend money and invest the moneyB. They cared little about the bequest and lived their life as usual.C. They paid a visit to Edgar to confirm the truth of the letter.D. They were in deep sorrow and stayed up all night long.30. What does t he underlined word “capital” in the passage probably mean?A. a letter from EdgarB. a large amount of moneyC. a proof of Boris’ identityD. an important city of a country31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Thrilling NewsB. The $30,000 BequestC. A Wise InvestmentD. A Rich Distant RelativeDBad news sells. If it bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers. But now that information is being spread and monitored in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By tracking people’s e-mails and online posts, scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the University ofPennsylvania. “They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling. But when you share a story with your f riends, you care a lot more how they react. You don’t want them to think of you as a Debbie Downer.”Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication—e-mails，Web posts and reviews, face-to-face conversations—found that it tended to be more positive tha n negative, but that didn’t necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a part icular set of news stories thousands of articles on The New York Times’ website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e-mailed” list for six months. One of his first finds was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times’ readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others.Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused one way or the other, and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious Why Things Catch On.”32 .What do the classic rules mentioned in the text apply to?A.
