“I’m ready”, said Alyssna Carson, a 17-year-old girl from Louisiana,US. She is taking an astronaut-in-taking training. She is a great and lucky girl. If all goes according to her plans, NASA* will send her to Mars* in 2033, making her the first human to step foot on the planet. She will spend two to three years doing something on it, growing food, performing a science experiments, and searching for signs of life. “The Martian is actually very amazing,” she said, “I saw a lot of things in the movies and they are going to happen.
__________. When she was 3 years old, she watched a cartoon called The Backyardigans.It’s about many adventures in their backyard including one part to Mars. “I thought this red planet is so cool,” she said, “I started watching videos of rovers landing on Mars, I had a large map of Mars in my room. I started getting telescopes *so I could look at space.”
At 7 her father took her to U. S. Space Camp in Huntsville Alabama. “That was the weekend of my life,” she said. “I got to learn everything I had been wanting to know and more. I got to see a life-size rocket.” She was crazy about the rocket so much that she returned I8 times. At the age of 12 she became the first person in history to attend all three NASA space camps. Then she started to learn about the basics of space and how humans have over explored it. As she got older she started trying to reach a gravity-free zones, a situation like in Mars.
When she was 9 she met NASA astronaut Sandra Magnus. The experienced astronaut told her she was the same age as her when she decided to go to space. At that moment Alyssa knew her love of space was not a passing hobby. “I did the same thing as other kids, like thinking about the future jobs, wanting to be a teacher or the president one day,” she said, “But the way I always thought about it was I would become an astronaut, go to Mars, come back, and then be a teacher or the president.

25、 Former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill once said, “The British are the only people who like to be told how bad things are.” This is definitely true of British comedy(戏剧). Most people think humor is about happy things, but for the British, the opposite is true. We love to use our cruel sense of humor to complain and be negative.
British comedy, for example, draws a fine line between comedy and tragedy(悲剧). BBC’s The Office is a TV show, famous for its dry humor. The main character, David Brent, is a foolish man, and the show’s comedy comes from hisdelusions. For example, he often tells himself that he is loved by everyone but the viewer can see that everyone hates him.
Stupid characters for the audience to laugh at are an old tradition in Britain. In Shakespeare’s play Twelfth Night, the character Malvolio is an old man whom people play tricks on. The audience will laugh away, although the reality is that this man is a truly tragic individual(个体).
This side of British humor is reflected(反映)in friendships as well. At university, my friends and I would always laugh at one another. I had an American friend who actually found this sarcasm(挖苦)quite upsetting. She didn’t realize that in Britain, the better friends you are with someone, the more you laugh at them.
This way—laughing at everything—may sound rather depressing(沮丧),but our strange humor played a big part in British history. In World War II, along with a stiff upper lip(坚定沉着), the British got through it by laughing. What else was there to do?
There is a saying in English: “Laugh and the world laughs with you; cry and you cry alone.” If you are ever on the receiving end of British sarcasm, you may feel like crying, but it’s best to just laugh it off!
【1】How is British comedy different from other types?
A.It is often surprising and boring.
B.It often laughs at human nature.
C.It is often about negative things.
D.It often makes people feel depressed.
【2】What does the underlined word “delusions” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.strong abilities
B.fun characters
C.incorrect beliefs
D.deep confidence
【3】Why is Shakespeare’s play Twelfth Night mentioned in the article?
A.To show one of the best examples of British comedy.
B.To explain how Shakespeare’s comedy is different.
C.To show how difficult it is to make people accept British comedy.
D.To prove Britain has a long tradition of laughing at stupid characters.
【4】How does the author advise people to react(反应)to British humor?
A.Learn from it.
B.Don’t take it seriously.
C.Reply sarcastically.
D.Be careful not to make stupid mistakes.
26、September 10 is Teachers’ Day in China, a special day to show respect for teachers. Let’s take a look at the lives of three well-known teachers who have made a big difference.
Confucius
Known as the first teacher in China, Confucius spent most of his life teaching and helping students solve problems. He had his own ideas about education. He was also the founder of Confucianism and private schools in China.
Du Lan

In the past 24 years since the return of Macao to China, a flag-raising ceremony has been held every Monday.

27、Green Roofs (屋顶)
Why would anyone want to plant a garden on a roof? People are finding out that it is good for the environment and good for them.
Cities can be as much as four to ten degrees warmer than the countryside. Green rooftops can help cool the air in cities. One green roof will not do much to change the temperature of a city. However, when more buildings begin to convert their rooftops to green spaces, it can make a real difference. Buildings that are cooler also use air conditioning less often. This reduces the amount of energy a building uses.
Cities are usually more polluted than other areas. The plants on the rooftops can even help clean the air. Gardens in the city can also provide a place for birds and bugs to live.
One unusual rooftop garden is on the rooftop of Children's Hospital in Missouri. The garden covers an area of 7,500 square feet. It is a place for the children and parents to relax and be close to nature without leaving the hospital. The garden has flowers, fountains(喷泉), and even a goldfish pond.
Another interesting garden is on the rooftop of the Royal York Hotel in Canada. The hotel's cooks can pick herbs(草本植物)they use fresh from the roof. Some other hotels and restaurants have rooftop gardens to grow plants. They just need gardeners to care for them. Rooftop gardens can dry out quickly in the summer sun, and vegetables need frequent watering.
Not all buildings have green rooftops. For one thing, green rooftops can be more expensive than traditional rooftops. Also, a roof needs to be flat and strong enough to support the weight of the garden.
In the past, not many people knew about rooftop gardens and how good they could be for the environment. But it is changing. You may want to keep your eyes on the skies when you walk the streets in your town or city. You never know when you might catch a look of a secret garden many feet above the ground.
【1】The word "convert" in Paragraph 2 probably means“ ” .
A.connect B.move C.change D.take
【2】The sixth paragraph is mainly about .
A.why it is difficult to have green rooftops
B.when all buildings can have green rooftops
C.what buildings need to have green rooftops
D.how to make all buildings have green rooftops
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Cooks of hotels and restaurants care for plants in rooftop gardens.
B.Rooftop gardens in hospitals should be larger and more beautiful.
C.Rooftop gardens help people save a lot of money.
D.More and more people begin to know rooftop gardens.
