阅读理解     If you watch the sky about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some "movingstars". But
they"re not real stars. They are man-made satellites. And the biggest of all is the International Space
Station ( ISS国际空间站).
     From now until July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth, and people can see it
just with their eyes. The ISS is the biggest man-made satellite because scientists want to live on it. They
think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there.
     When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with
many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The
ISS is the most ambitious(雄心勃勃) and expensive space program ever.
     Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year.
     Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping-stone (垫脚石) for future space exploration.
     "The ISS will help us better understand the human body, explore space and study the earth. It can
help us make life on the earth better," said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist.
     China is not an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. China sent some rice up
to the ISS to find out what space would do to it.
     The ISS is not finished yet. More than 100 parts need to be put on. Scientists hope it will be finished
as soon as possible. After it"s finished, more than 90% of the world"s population will be able to see the
Space Station. So keep looking up, and maybe you"ll see it get bigger.
1. The ISS is          .
A. a world power station

     Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would
admit that their spoken English is poor. Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say, "My
spoken English is poor." However, their spoken English does not have to remain "poor". I would like to
suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.
     First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves because of a limited vocabulary.
Obviously, the better answer is to enlarge their vocabulary. However, you can speak with a limited
vocabulary, if your attitude is positive(积极的). Others will follow you as long as(只要) you use the
words that you know.
     Second, they are afraid of making mistakes. Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking
because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY
(流利性) NOT ACCURACY(准确性). Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for
grammar and using them to get your message across(使别人了解你的信息). But to talk to someone
in English, as quickly and well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense,
but it doesn"t matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you and forgive you for any
mistakes he hears.
     The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening. You have one mouth but two ears!
All the hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.
     Fourth, most Chinese students are somewhat passive language learners. Instead of actively looking
for opportunities(机会) to improve their spoken English, they passively wait for speaking opportunities
to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. If you are active language learners,
then, you will see English chances wherever you go.
     If you do not use your English beyond the classroom, you will forget that English you know.
Remember: USE IT OR LOSE IT! You can learn how to speak English better by speaking Eng1ish
more.

       According to a new Ministry of Education (教育部) survey, student safety has become a big
problem. Nearly 50 percent of students say they are worried about robbery  on the way to and from
school. Now in many big cities in China, some school has taught an unusual lesson: self - protection
(自我保护). Students like this lesson as there are no exams or boring classes. And they can learn how
to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really happens.
       Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No. 25 Middle School and a self - protection expert, gives young
students advice on how to deal with danger.
       If you are robbed
       Keep calm. If you cannot cry for help or run away, give the robber your money. Try to remember
what the robber looks like and tell the police.
       If you are in a traffic accident
       If you are hurt by a car, take down the car number; if it is a bicycle, try to contact your parents
before you let the rider go. This is because you don"t know how seriously you are hurt.
       If it is raining hard and there is lightning
       Don"t stay in high places and keep away from trees.
       When there is a fire
       Get away as fast as you can .Put wet things on your body and try and find an exit. Do not take the
lift!
       If someone is drowning(溺水)
       If you can"t swim, don"t get into the water. Cry out for help.
       Remember that danger is never as far away as you think. Take care of yourself at all times!

The advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel f __3__ with the exhibits. Being different from the art museum visitors, design museum visitors s __4__ feel frightened or puzzled.

In the United States, headmasters and teachers disci?pline (惩罚) students in several ways. The teacher often writes to or calls the students" parents.
