Unless we spend money to spot and prevent asteroids(小行星)now ,one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it ,say some scientists.

Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids(流星)that race across the night sky.Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don't threaten us. But there are also thousads whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth.

Buy $ 50 million worth of new telescopes right now. Then spend $ 10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one ,the scientists say ,we'll have a way to change its course.

Some scientists favor pushing asteroids off course with nuclear weapons. But

the cost wouldn't be cheap.

Is it worth it? Two things experts consider when judging any risk are: 1) How likely the event is; and 2) How bad the consequences if the event occurs.Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once eve ry 500,000 years.Sounds pretty rare-but if one did fall ,it would be the end of the world.“If we don't take care of these big asteroids ,they'll take care of us ,”says one scientist.“It's that simple.”

The cure ,though ,might be worse than the disease.Do we really want fleets of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth?“The world has less to fear from doomsday(毁灭性的) rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them ,” said a New York Times article.

1. What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids? A) They are heavenly bodies different in composition. B) They are heavenly bodies similar in nature. C) There are more asteroids than meteoroids.

D) Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids.

2. What do scientists say about the collision of an asteroid with Earth? A) It is very unlikely but the danger exists.

B) Such a collision might occur once every 25 years.

C) Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected. D) It's still too early to say whether such a collision might occur..

3. What do people think of the suggestion of using nuclear weapons to alter the course of asteroids?

A) It sounds practical but it may not solve the problem. B) It may create more problems than it might solve.

C) It is a waste of money because a collision of asteroids with Earth is very unlikely.

D) Further research should be done before it is proved applicable. 4. We can conclude from the passage that .

A) while pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world B) asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future C) the worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetime

D) workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth.

5. Which of the following best describes the author's tone in this pass age? A) Optimistic. B) Critical. C) Objective. D) Arbitrary.

TASK 2

Believe it or not,optical illusion (错觉) can cut highway crashes. Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. Bent stripes,called chevrons (人字形)painted on the roads make drivers think that they are d riving faster than they really are,and thus drivers slow down. Now the American Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to rep eat Japan's success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes. Excessive speed plays a major role role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation .To help reduce those accidents,the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed - related hazards are the greatest - curves,exit slopes,traffic circles,and bridges. Some studies suggest that straight,horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However,traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bar. Chevrons,scientists say,not only give drivers the impress ion that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane spear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.

6. The passage mainly discusses .

A) a new way of highway speed control

B) a new pattern for painting highways

C) a new approach to training drivers

D) a new type of optical illusion

7. On roads painted with chevrons drivers tend to feel that.

A) they should avoid speed - related hazards

B) they are driving in the wrong lane

C) they should slow down their speed

D) they are approaching the speed limit

8. The advantage of chevrons over straight,horizontal bars is that the former .

A) can keep drivers awake

B) can cut road accidents in half

C) will have a longer effect on drivers

D) will look more attractive

9. The American Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to .

A) try out the Japanese method in certain areas

B) change the road signs across the country

C) replace straight,horizontal bars with chevrons

D) repeat the Japanese road patterns

10. What does the author say about straight,horizontal bars painted acr oss roads?

A) They are falling out of use in the United States.

B) They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.

C) They are applicable only on broad roads.

D) They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circles..

TASK 3

The January fashion show, called FutureFashion, exemplified how far green design has come. Organized by the New York-based nonprofit Earth Pledge, the show inspired many top designers to work with sustainable fabrics for the first time. Several have since made pledges to include organic fabrics in their lines.

The designers who undertake green fashion still face many challenges. Scott Hahn, cofounder with Gregory of Rogan and Loomstate, which uses all-organic cotton, says high-quality sustainable materials can still be tough to find. “Most designers with existing labels are finding there aren’t comparable fabrics that can just replace what you’re doing and what your customers are used to,” he says. For example, organic cotton and non-organic cotton are virtually indistinguishable once woven into a dress. But some popular synthetics, like stretch nylon, still have few eco-friendly equivalents.

Those who do make the switch are finding they have more support. Last year the influential trade show Designers & Agents stopped charging its participation fee for young green entrepreneurs(企业家)who attend its two springtime shows in Los Angeles and New York and gave special recognition to designers whose collections are at least 25% sustainable. It now counts more than 50 green designers, up from fewer than a dozen two years ago. This week Wal-Mart is set to announce a major initiative aimed at helping cotton farmers go organic: it will buy transitional (过渡型的)cotton at higher prices, thus helping to expand the supply of a key sust ainable material. “Mainstream is about to occur,” says Hahn.

Some analysts (分析师)are less sure. Among consumers, only 18% are even aware that ecofashion exists, up from 6% four years ago. Natalie Hormilla, a fashion writer, is an example of the unconverted consumer. When asked if she owned any sustainable clothes, she replied: “Not that I’m aware of.” Like most consumers, she finds little time to shop, and when she does, she’s on the hunt for “cute stuff that isn’t too expensive.” By her own admission, green just isn’t yet on her mind. But—thanks to the combined efforts of designers, retailers and suppliers—one day it will be.

11. What is said about Future Fashion?

A)It inspired many leading designers to start going green.

B)It showed that designers using organic fabrics would go far.

C)It served as an example of how fashion shows should be organized.

D)It convinced the public that fashionable clothes should be made durable.

12. According to Scott Hahn, one big challenge to designers who will go organic is that ____.

A)much more time is needed to finish a dress using sustainable materials B)they have to create new brands for clothes made of organic materials

C)customers have difficulty telling organic from non-organic materials

D)quality organic replacements for synthetics are not readily available 13. We learn from Paragraph 3 that designers who undertake green fashion ____.

A)can attend various trade shows free

B)are readily recognized by the fashion world

C)can buy organic cotton at favorable prices

D)are gaining more and more support

14. What is Natalie Hormilla’s attitude toward ecofashion?

A)She doesn’t seem to care about it.

B)She doesn’t think it is sustainable.

C)She is doubtful of its practical value.

D)She is very much opposed to the idea.

15. What does the author think of green fashion?

A)Green products will soon go mainstream.

B)It has a very promising future.

C)Consumers have the final say.

D)It will appeal more to young people.

TASK 4

Why does cream go bad faster than butter? Some researchers think they the answer,and it comes down to the structure of the food,not its chemical composition - a finding that could help rid some processed foods of chemical preservatives. C ream and butter contain pretty much the same substances,so why cream should sou r much faster has been a mystery. Both are emulsions - tiny globules(小球)of one liquid evenly distributed throughout another. The difference lies in what's in the globules and what's in the surrounding liquid,says Brocklehurst,who led the investigation. In cream,fatty globules and what's in the surrounding liquid,says Brocklehurst,who led the investigation. In cream,fatty globules drift about in a sea of water. In butter,globules of a watery solution are locked away in a sea of fat. The bacteria which make the food go bad prefer to live in the watery regions of the mixture. ”This means that in cream,the bacteria are free to grow throughout the mixture,”he says. When the situation is reversed,the bacteria are locked away in compartments (密封仓) buried deep in the sea of fat. Trapped in this way,individual colonies cannot spread and rapidly run out of nutrients. They also slowly poison themselves with their waste products.”In butter,you get a self - limiting system which stops the bacteria growing,”says Brocklehurst. The researchers are already working with food com panies keen to see if their products can be made resistant to bacterial attack through alterations to the food's structure. Brocklehurst believes it will be possible to make the emulsions used in salad cream,for instance,more like that in butter. The key will be to do this while keeping the salad cream liquid and not turning it into a solid lump.

16. The significance of Brocklehurst's research is that ______ .

A) it suggested a way to keep some foods fresh without preservatives

B) it discovered tiny globules in both cream and butter

C) it revealed the secret of how bacteria multiply in cream and butter

D) it found that cream and butter share the same chemical composition

17. According to the researchers. cream sours faster than butter because bacteria_____ .

A) are more evenly distributed in cream

B) multiply more easily in cream than is butter

C) live on less fat in cream than in butter

D) produce less waste in cream than in butter

18. According to Brocklehurst,we can keep cream fresh by ______ .

A) removing its fat B) killing the bacteria

C) reducing its water content D) altering its structure

19. The word “colonies”(Line 2,Para.4) refers to ______ .

A) tiny globules B) watery regions

C) bacteria communities D) little compartments

20. Commercial application of the research finding will be possible if salad cream

can be made resistant to bacterial attack ______ .

A) by varying its chemical composition B) by turning it into a solid lump

C) while keeping its structure unchanged D) while retaining its liquid

When Dan Shaw gets up from the sofa in his home, Cuddles is never far

away. When he wants to go outside, he doesn’t take Cuddles out for

walk —Cuddles takes him for a walk. Cuddles is clearly no ordinary family pet. It is a two-foot-high miniature horse and serves as the guiding eyes of Shaw, who is blind.

When Shaw lost his sight, his wife suggested he apply for a guide dog. Shaw, an animal lover, said he couldn ’t bear to part with a dog (which usually lives about eight to ten years) and get used to a new one, perhaps several times in his life.

Then Shaw heard of a program about the tiny guide horses. He learned that the horse possess many qualities that that make them an excellent choice for guiding people. They are clean friendly, smart and have great memories. They can be trained to remain calm in noisy and crowded places. Best of all, they live for 25-25years, which would enable Shaw to have the same guide companion for most or all of his life.

Shaw immediately applied to be and was accepted as the first person to receive a guide horse. The instant he met Cuddles, he knew he was making the right choice. Then he began his training.

Through training ,Shaw and Cuddles learned to find way on busy streets, step over curbs (便道沿儿)and find elevator buttons. Cuddles even demonstrated (显示)its ability to step in front of Shaw and block him, to prevent him from walking into a dangerous situation. The little horse also expertly led Shaw through busy shopping malls. They got along without any difficulties. Now Shaw is confident that Cuddles will change his life for the better.

Dear Tommy,

Dad has just told me that you will visit us next month. How exciting! Let me tell you about some of the places you may want to visit.

There is an interesting palace called Lettuce Farm Palace. You will not see any lettuces there, but you will see ancient Thai houses and furniture. You will also see some ancient Thai paintings. Another place you can visit is the Temple of the Golden Buddha. This temple is famous because the Buddha is made of gold!

Have you ever seen people putting their hands in the mouths of snakes? If you have not, then you can see this at the Snake Farm. Have you ever been to a floating market? There are many in Bangkok. They are called floating markets because people sell meat and vegetables in the little boats on the rivers. We can go to the one near my home. It is the biggest in the city.

You should also go to the largest outdoor restaurant in the world. This restaurant can hold 10,000 people for lunch and dinner. The waiters all wear roller-skates because they have to move very quickly.

Would you like to see any of these places? Please write and tell me. Dad and I will make a timetable for your visit. Bye!

Love, Bobby
