阅读理解。    Space travel is nothing new. The first spacecraft with a human was sent up into space in 1961.
    Since then, people have not only traveled to space, but many of them have also lived there in
space stations for some time.
    The Soviet Union(前苏联) sent the first space station into space in 1971. This space station was
called Salyut I. Salyut I was designed as a place where people could live while they observed space
and did experiments. The first group of astronauts lived there for 23 days. The Soviet Union went on
to make seven more Salyut space stations. At about the same time, the United States built its own
space station, called Skylab.
    Astronauts visited and often lived in these space stations for a short time. However, it wasn’t until
the late 1980s when the Soviet Union sent the Mir space station that people began to live in space for
a longer time. Mir stayed in space from 1989 until 2001, when it was decided that the space station
was too old and no longer safe to live in.
    Living in apace stations seems to be fun, but astronauts face many problems. One of them is food.
All the meals on space stations are put together on Earth and sent there by space shuttle. Because the
food has to last a long time (sometimes up to three months), a lot of it has to be stored in cans. The
space station does not have a fridge, but it has a cool room to keep fruit and vegetables fresh. Astronauts
also eat many other foods such as dried meat that do not need special care.
    Without the help of gravity, sitting down to eat can be tough. Astronauts sometimes have to fix
themselves to the wall while eating. They also have to be very careful to that food does not float away.1.Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “observed” in Paragraph 2?A. Discovered
B. Checked
C. Watched
D. Fixed2.What can we infer(推断) from the passage?A.Astronauts can never have a chance to eat fresh food when they live in space stations.
B.The Soviet Union sent a total of 9 space stations into space in the 1970s and 1980s.
C.Astronauts could live in the Mir space station for no more than three weeks.
D.Space travel has quite a long history of more than 60 years.3.What is the best title of this passage?A. Exploring Space
B. Space Travel
C. Living in Space
D. Space Stations

阅读理解。      Wild animals are our friends, but many of them are getting fewer and fewer. We should try to
protect them. The four animals below are now in danger.
Tibetan Antelopes
      Tibetan antelopes (藏羚羊) are medium-sized animals. They mainly feed on grass. They are
usually found in groups of about 20. They are killed for their wool, which is warm, soft and fine
and can be made into expensive clothes. Although people can get the wool without killing the
animals, people simply kill them before taking the wool. The number of them is dropping year by
year. There are less than 75,000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world, down from a million 50 years
ago.
Golden Monkeys
      Golden monkeys are mainly found in Sichuan, Gansu, Shanxi provinces and Shengnongjia
mountainous area of Hubei Province. Golden monkeys have golden-orange fur. They move around
in the daytime, usually in groups of as many as 100 to 200 heads, or 20 to 30 heads. They feed
on fruits and young leaves of bamboos. But people are destroying the environment where they live.
Trees and bamboos are disappearing, so golden monkeys have less and less to eat.
Elephans
    Elephants are very big and strong. They are bigger than any other animals on land. They are
grey and have long trunks and tusks. They have poor eyesight, but very good hearing and smell.
They can lift heavy things and break down branches with their trunks. Elephants are very friendly
towards each other and towards their neighbours. Normally, they live in a group for many years.
Young male elephants do not leave the group until they are about 12 years old. Now, there are
very few elephants in the world. The number of them is becoming smaller and smaller because
their living areas are used for farming. Also, people hunt them for their tusks.
Wolves
      Wolves are not very big. They have grey fur. Wolves have very good eyesight, hearing and
smell. Wolves" food is vavious. They eat animals, insects and snails. They are friendly to each
other and never attack people. They do not kill for fun. Wolves are in danger, too. They are losing
their living areas because people cut down forests. Soon they will have no home or food.1. Tibetan antelopes usually live in groups of about _______.A. 20

阅读理解。      The Venus flytrap is a kind of meat-eating plant. It grows in very few places, such as wetlands near
the coast of North Carolina in America.
      The Venus flytrap is not a large plant. It grows to be only about a foot tall. The plant has white
flowers in the spring, but it is the plant"s leaves that make it so interesting. The ends of the leaves have
folding parts with stiff, tiny hairs (带小硬刺的可折叠部分). These are the plant"s "traps (捕捉器)".
      What does the Venus flytrap eat? As you might guess, the Venus flytrap eats flies (苍蝇). It also
eats spiders, ants, and crickets. The Venus flytrap makes most of its food with sun, air, and water,
just like other plants. Living things just give it extra nutrition (营养) to grow well in wetlands.
      How does this plant trap and eat living things? The Venus flytrap uses a sweet liquid (液体) to
attract its food. When a fly lands on one of the plant"s open traps, hairs on the surface make the trap
closed. As soon as the trap closes, the fly is dinner!
      If you want to have your own Venus flytrap at home, you have to buy the plant from a special place.
You can"t take a Venus flytrap from where it grows! There are laws about taking it out of the wild. 1. According to the passage, where does the Venus flytrap grow?A. In the wetlands.
B. In the desert.
C. In the rocks.
D. In the sea.2. About the Venus flytrap, which of the following is true?A. It is a large plant.

b. A fly lands on one of the plant"s open traps.
c. The fly is kept in the trap as the food of the plant.
d. The Venus flytrap uses a sweet liquid to attract its food.A. d-b-a-c
B. a-b-c-d
C. b-d-a-c
D. d-b-c-a4. Why can"t you take a Venus flytrap from the wild?A. Because the plant may hurt you.
