China"s first moon rover (月球车), Yutu, set off from the lander early on December 15, several hours after the Chang"e-3 probe (探测器) soft-landed on the moon surface.
The 140 kg six-wheeled rover touched the moon surface at 4:35 a.m., leaving deep lines on the loose moon land. This was recorded by the camera on the lander and the images were sent to the earth, according to the Beijing Aerospace Control Center. After that, the rover and lander will take photos of each other and start their own science explorations.
Earlier this morning, engineers made final checks of the environment of the landing area and the situation of the probe. Yutu, reached its solar panel (光板) and started to drive slowly to the moon at 3:10 a.m.. It took Yutu nearly a whole hour to complete the simple task.
Chang"e-3 landed at the Bay of Rainbows on the moon, at 9:11 p.m. on December 14, making China the
third country in the world to carry out such a mission (执行此类任务) after the United States and Russia.
In old Chinese tales, Yutu was the white pet rabbit of Chang"e’s. The name for the rover was selected following an online survey that collected several million votes from people around the world.
The rover, 1.5 meters long with its two wings folded (折叠), 1 m in width and 1.1 m in height, is a perfect robot controlled by the command center from the earth. It will face challenges including temperature differences of more than 300℃ on the moon.
Yutu will do some research and look for natural resources (资源) for three months, while the lander will conduct an exploration at the landing place for one year. Then they will have a good rest on the moon and will not be used for a long time until China’s next probe visits the moon again.

解析

试题分析：这篇短文中作者主要主要介绍了玉兔号和嫦娥三号在太空探测月球的工作过程。主要描述了玉兔和嫦娥三号的基本信息情况。
小题1:主旨大意题。根据短文内容可知，本文主要就是讲解了玉兔探测月球的事情；故选D。
小题2:句子排序题。根据时间顺序可以得出事件的顺序。短文第四段Chang"e-3 landed at the Bay of Rainbows on the moon, at 9:11 p.m. on December 14, 可知嫦娥三号首先在月亮湾着陆；第三段Yutu, reached its solar panel (光板) and started to drive slowly to the moon at 3:10 a.m.可知，接下来玉兔号开始缓慢地向月球驶去；第二段第一句The 140 kg six-wheeled rover touched the moon surface at 4:35 a.m可知，到了上午四点三十五分140千克六轮月球车抵达月球；第二段After that, the rover and lander will take photos of each other 可知，最后月球车和着陆器会相互拍照以记录相关数据；故答案为C。
小题3:词义猜测题。根据本句内容可知，月球车的长为1.5米，高为1.1米，由此可推断它的宽度是1米；故由此可猜测width的意思为宽度；故答案为B。
小题4:细节理解题。根据短文第四段making China the third country in the world to carry out such a mission (执行此类任务) after the United States and Russia.可知，中国式仅次于美俄之后登上月球的；故A正确；根据第六段第一句The rover is a perfect robot controlled by the command center from the earth.可知B项错误；最后一段第一句可知，玉兔的任务周期为三个月，而月球着陆探测器的任务周期是一年，所以C项错误；第二段The 140 kg six-wheeled rover 可知月球车的重量是140千克，而不是嫦娥三号的重量，D项错误；故选A。
小题5:细节理解题。根据短文最后一段可知，玉兔在完成任务后直至中国下一次的探测任务之前会好好休息可知，下一次的探测任务命名可能是玉兔二号；故选B。

Learning about the environment is very important. There are many good books that will help you learn. To get started, ask your teacher or your friends for some advice. You can also look at some good websites with information about the environment and climate change. Climate change may be a big problem, but there are many little things we can do to make a difference.
Driving a car or using electricity is not wrong. We just have to be smart about it. Some people use less energy by sharing a car. For example, four people can ride together in one car instead of driving four cars to work. Whenever we use electricity, we put greenhouse gases into the air. By turning off the lights, the television, and the computer when they aren’t needed, you can help a lot.
Don’t buy products (产品) that use too much energy. Some products, like certain cars, are made specially to save energy. These cars can travel longer on less gasoline (汽油). They don’t pollute as much, either. Products like computers, TVs and VCRs with the ENERGY STAR label (标签) are made to save energy. Buying products with these labels will help protect the environment.
Buy recyclable (可循环再用的) products instead of non-recyclable ones. Recyclable products are usually made out of things that have already been used. It usually takes less energy to make recyclable products than to make new ones. So when you go shopping, look for the recycle mark on the package. The less energy we use, the better.
小题1:The passage is mainly about ________________.

A．some suggestions about cars

B．an advertisement

C．the changes to the climate

D．the ways to protect the environment

小题2:From the passage, we can learn that ________________.

A．turning off the electricity when it isn’t needed can do good to the environment

B．electricity won’t cause great trouble to our environment

C．cars using less energy will not put greenhouse gases into the air

D．recyclable products are marked with the ENERGY STAR label

English is very important in the modern world. Many people want to learn it well. Here are some things that I want to say about learning it.
To learn English well, you need two things－passion and good learning methods (方法). Passion is the more important one. Why? Because passion makes you want to learn English. Learning methods only tell you how to learn it better and faster.

When you don’t want to learn English, you can do the following things.
First, imagine that you can talk to native speakers just as you talk in your mother language. Imagine yourself to be a manager in a foreign company. Imagine you’re living in an English-speaking country.
Second, use English as much as possible. This is very important. The more you use English, the better you’ll learn it. English is very popular, so you can use it everywhere. You can watch American cartoons, write English diaries, and read interesting books written in English.

We all know that smoking is bad for people’s health. But not many people know about the danger of secondhand smoke.
Secondhand smoke is the smoke that comes from the smoker’s breath(呼吸). If people breathe in secondhand smoke from time to time, they could get sick from it.
But how serious is the problem of the secondhand smoke? The World Health Organization(WHO) did a study of 194 countries. They found that secondhand smoke causes about 600,000 deaths every year. That is about 1% of the world’s deaths.
Secondhand smoke is especially bad for children because their bodies are still growing. According to the study, around 165,000 children under the age of 5 die each year because of secondhand smoke. Most of these deaths happen in Africa and southern Asia.
You can do something to keep yourself and other people away from secondhand smoke. You can ask the smokers, such as your parents, to smoke outside. And, if someone smokes close to you, you’d better hold your breath or just walk away.
