21、   Six Chinese survived the tragedy of the Royal Mail Ship Titanic, but disappeared soon after. Now a British documentarian, Arthur Jones, will uncover stories and histories of discrimination.

There were eight Chinese between the ages of 24 and 37 on the Titanic, sharing one 59-pound third-class ticket, but only six survived from its sinking. When they arrived in the United States, they were not helped like the other 705 survivors. Instead they were forced to leave the country within 24 hours because of the Chinese Exclusion Act signed in 1882.

Some westerners questioned the six Chinese survivors as stowaways and claimed that they survived because they secretly climbed on the lifeboat or dressed as women to board lifeboats.

But after visiting foreign documents, museums and cooperating with American and Chinese historians, Jones believes they did not do anything disgraceful in order to survive the disaster. 'This is not only a story about the survivors of Titanic, but also a story of a group of brave Chinese people exploring the outside world at that time, ' he said.

When the ship hit an iceberg, like other third-class passengers the eight Chinese were released from the locked gates at last, but not allowed to board the lifeboat. Luckily, four of them boarded a small broken boat, and one was rescued by another lifeboat. Another one, Fang Lang, floated on a piece of wooden board in the sea. The only returning lifeboat saved him from freezing.

To restore their real stories, Jones and his team found Fang Lang's son in Wisconsin, US. Also, Jones will visit Taishan city in south China's Guangdong province, recorded as the survivors' hometown. The filmmakers also established a website, whoarethesix.com, for more clues.

Ordinarily, people think of Titanic as a story of rich white people, but don't know there were people from all over the world, including Chinese. 'Their stories are never told, ' Jones said.

The documentary The Six is expected to be released in China late this year.

【1】What can we learn about the Chinese Exclusion Act?

A.It put Chinese at disadvantage.

B.It was completed within 24 hours.

C.It aimed to help Chinese passengers.

D.It forbad Chinese to buy first-class tickets.

【2】What might Jones think of the six Chinese survivors?

A.Adventurous but dishonest. B.Lucky but disgraceful.

C.Brave and innocent. D.Poor and questionable.

【3】What does Paragraph 6 mainly talk about?

A.Some amazing findings about the survivors.

B.Jones and his team's visit to different people.

C.Jones’ efforts to restore the stories of the Chinese.

D.Some information about the survivors' hometown.

【4】What is the purpose of the film The Six?

A.Tell the true story of the six Chinese survivors.

B.Research into the way the six Chinese survived.

C.Criticize American's discrimination against Chinese.

D.Describe the hardship of Chinese living in America.

22、   Retired jet engines could help clear the smog that smothered big cities.

To land at Indira Gandhi Airport is to descend from clear skies to brown ones. New Delhi's air is poisonous. According to the World Health Organization, India's capital has the most polluted atmosphere of all the world's big cities. The government is trying to introduce rules that will curb emissions-allowing private cars to be driven only on alternate days, for example, and enforcing better emissions standards for all vehicles.

But implementing these ideas, even if that can be done successfully, will change things only slowly. A quick fix would help. And Moshe Alamaro, a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, thinks he has one. His idea is to take a jet engine, put it next to one of India's dirty coal-fired power plants, point its exhaust nozzle at the sky and then switch it on. His hope is that the jet's exhaust will disrupt a meteorological phenomenon known as "inversion", in which a layer of warm air settles over cooler air, trapping it, and that the rising stream of exhaust will carry off the tiny particles of matter that smog is composed of. Inversion exacerbates air pollution in Delhi and in many other cities, from Los Angeles to Tehran. A particularly intense example caused the Great Smog of London in 1952, when four days of air pollution contributed to 12,000 deaths.

Dr Alamaro thinks a jet engine could punch through the inversion layer to create a "virtual chimney" which would carry the trapped pollution above it, so that it could be dispersed in the wider atmosphere. He calculates that all the emissions from a gigawatt coal-fired power plant could be lifted away using a single engine with a nozzle speed of 460 metres a second.

However, he has not calculated whether a jet engine could disrupt the inversion layer and allow the pollution to escape the city-so he is now going to test that hypothesis. Within eight months, Dr Alamaro plans to put one of his updrafters next to a coal-fired power plant and monitor what happens using a fleet of drones. He is in discussions with Tata Group, a conglomerate with an electricity-generating arm, to run it next to one of the firm's power stations.

【1】The second paragraph serves as _______.

A.a hook to raise reader’s interest in the topic

B.an introduction of the seriousness of pollution in India

C.an example of slow progress of smog control in India

D.a background to make the idea sound worthwhile

【2】The idea of applying retired jet engines is most probably inspired by the fact that ______ .

A.New Delhi is suffering the most serious smog worldwide

B.a retired jet engine has a nozzle speed of 460 metres a second

C.the inversion layer prevent the pollutants from getting away

D.conventional ways to deal with air pollution are too slow

【3】Which might be the best title of the passage?

A.New Delhi, the capital of Smog

B.Air Pollution, a Global Challenge

C.Air Pollution in Delhi

D.Air Pollution: Blown Away

23、   An Indian spacecraft's first attempt to make a soft, controlled landing in the moon's south polar region has ended in painful silence: Shortly before touchdown (降落), the robotic lander - part of the Chandrayaan-2 mission - fell out of contact with mission control(航天地面指挥中心). The Indian Space Research Organization says that the spacecraft stopped communicating with Earth when it was within 1.3 miles of the lunar surface. 'The Vikram descent (下降)was as planned, and normal performance was observed, up to an altitude of 2.1 kilometers, ' said Kailasavadivoo Sivan, ISRO's chairman, in a statement roughly half an hour after signal loss. 'The data is being analyzed.'

A successful landing would have made India just the fourth country to touch down anywhere on the lunar (月球的)surface, and only the third nation to operate a robotic rover (巡视器) there. Nevertheless, the Chandrayaan-2 mission's orbiter(航天器) remains safely in lunar orbit, with a year-long scientific mission ahead of it. Like any voyage to a world beyond Earth, Vikram's flight was a risky endeavor, requiring the lander to slow itself down to a near standstill(停止), scan for surface obstacles (障碍物) by itself, and then take steps to avoid them during touchdown. The majority of attempts to land robots on the moon have ended in failure, either during launch or on the way to the surface.

Following its launch on July 22, Chandrayaan-2 spent the last several weeks inching its way to the moon, ultimately entering lunar orbit on August 20. On September 2, Vikram separated from the mission's orbiter, and the newly freed lander began a series of braking maneuvers (刹车操作)to lower its orbit and ready itself for landing. Had things proceeded without a fault, Vikram and Pragyaan - the small solar-powered rover it carried - would have set down on the moon at a latitude of about 70 degrees South, on a highland between Manzinus C and Simpelius N.

This landing site was 'somewhere new that we haven't seen before, so that makes it another area for ground-truthing remote sensing data,' Clive Neal, a lunar geologist, said in an interview before the landing attempt, 'It was going to certainly enhance our knowledge of what the moon is like in those areas, so it was going to be another very good place for science and exploration.'

【1】What happened to the lunar lander according to paragraph 1?

A.It made a soft landing. B.It got data from the lunar surface.

C.It lost contact with Earth. D.It lowered itself at a wrong altitude.

【2】Why was the Vikram's flight a risky endeavor?

A.It demanded higher technique.

B.There were not enough funds to support it.

C.Few Indian scientists agreed with the voyage.

D.No country has succeeded in landing robots on the moon.

【3】What can we learn about Vikram from the third paragraph?

A.It entered lunar orbit four weeks after its launch.

B.It landed on the moon at an altitude of about 70 degrees South.

C.It separated from the mission's orbiter before entering the lunar orbit.

D.It lowered its orbit by starting the braking maneuvers to prepare for its landing.

【4】What's Clive Neal's attitude towards the landing?

A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Neutral. D.Negative.

24、Whether you’re travelling to the islands or the mountains of Thailand, you’re likely to spend at least one night in its capital city on the way. Bangkok might be noisy and polluted but it’s also an exciting city with plenty of things to see and do. Why not make it a longer stay?

Where to stay

The Khao San Road was a famous traveler spot even before Leonardo di Caprio’s character in the film The Beach stayed there. But it’s noisy, not very pretty and not very Thai. For something more authentic, Phra Kanong offers an alternative place to stay, with its fantastic street markets where Bangkok people eat, work and live every day. It’s not as convenient for the main tourist sites, but it has a Skytrain station so you can be at the Grand Palace in 20 minutes.

How to get around

Bangkok’s traffic can be a nightmare. Sure, you can easily take a taxi—if you want to spend hours stuck in traffic jams—but there are two much better ways to get around the city. To explore the temples and historical sites, catch an express boat or a longtail boat along the Chao Phraya River and the canals. For the modern part of the city, the Skytrain is a fast, cheap way to travel from the river to the shopping malls and nightlife of Sukhumvit, and the famous Chatuchak street market.

What to do

After you’ve seen the main sites like the Giant Buddha at the temple of Wat Pho and the spectacular Grand Palace, and shopped at Chatuchak market, check out the snake farm and watch the live snake show. You can even touch a snake yourself if you want to!

【1】What is special about Phra Kanong?

A．Its convenience for tourists.

B．Its real Thai lifestyle.

C．Its live snake show.

D．Its appearance in a famous movie.

【2】Which may be the best transport to explore the modern area of Bangkok?

A．An express boat.

B．A longtail boat.

C．A normal taxi.

D．The Skytrain.

【3】Where can the text be found?

A．In a travel brochure.

B．In a business newspaper.

C．In a geography textbook.

D．In a family magazine.

25、People may misunderstand what they used to be familiar with. I remembered a ________ professor was invited to our school, teaching stress management principles in a school hall ________ with students.

As she ________ a glass of water, every one of us expected we'd be asked the ________ “glass half-empty or glass half-full” question. ________, with a smile on her face, the professor asked, “How ________ is this glass of water I'm holding?”

All of us shouted out answers ranging from eight ounces to a couple of pounds.

She replied, “From my perspective, the absolute weight of this glass doesn't matter. It all ________ how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute or two, it's fairly light. If I hold it for an hour straight, its weight might make my arm________ a little. If I hold it for a day straight, my arm will likely cramp up and feel ________ numb (麻木的) and paralyzed, ________ me to drop the glass to the floor. In each case, the ________ of the glass doesn't change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it feels to me.”

As the whole class ________ our heads in agreement, she continued, “Your ________ and worries in life are very much like this glass of water. Think about them for a while and ________ happens. Think about them a bit longer and you begin to ache a little. Think about them all day long, and you will feel specially numb and paralyzed— ________ of doing anything else ________ you drop them.”

It's important to remember to ________ your stresses and worries. No matter what happens during the day, as early in the evening as you can, put all your burdens down. Don't ________ them through the night and into the next day with you. If you still feel the weight of ________ stress, it's a strong sign that it's time to put the ________ down.
