The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through, and this is necessary for plants to make the food that we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space, The unit of radiation is called “rem” Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage. A person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed children or even grandchildren. Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and , during the outward and return journeys, the Apollo crew accumulated(积累) a large amount of rems. So far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far.11In which way is the atmosphere necessary to man according to the first paragraph?A. It screens off the falling meteors.B. It provides enough light for plants to grow.C. It supplies the heat necessary for human survival.D. It protects him against the harmful rays from space.12We know from the passage that .A. exposure to even tiny amount of radiation is fatal( 致命的)B. the effect of exposure to radiation is slow in comingC. radiation is avoidable in space explorationD. astronauts in spacesuits neednt worry about radiation damage13The underlined word “deformed” probably means .A. badly-shaped B. weakC. naturally-grown D. ugly14It can be inferred from the passage that .A. the Apollo mission was very successfulB. astronauts will have deformed children or grandchildrenC. protection from space radiation is no easy jobD. radiation is not a threat to well-protected space explorers 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Sina Weibo, one of the countrys most popular micro-blogging sites,has launched a paid serviceFor a 10 yuan ($ l57) monthly fee, users get a membership on their Sina Weibo accounts According to Xu Yuanyuan, a member of the marketing team at Sina, themove is to guarantee a more convenient and safer environment for usersBut despite the companys efforts to increase income, it seems that most of its 300 million users still prefer the free version The premium membership (高级会员) plans ,announced by the company on Monday, brought about negative comments from its users “The current service is good enough for me”, said a Beijing-based micro-blogger“I dont really need those value-added services and it might be a waste of moneyI might consider paying for it if some more features are added” Dong Xu, an analyst with consulting firm Analysys International, said that Sina shouldnt expect a great increase in income brought by the new servicesThe free services are enough for most users, Dong said “The company has been making attempts at different profit models since last yearA potential source of income could be gamingGames and advertisements are so far the two biggest sources of income” she said Other micro-blogging service providers have not yet followed suitFang Gang, vice-president of rival Sohu, said via e-mail on Tuesday that Sohus micro-blogging service will never charge users“Its good news for usUsers can come to our website if they have to pay for services (at Sina)” Fang said 15Most of Sina Weibos users_A arent satisfied with its free versionB show no interest in its paid servicesC are looking forward to new servicesD think highly of its new paid version16Whats Dong Xus attitude towards Sina Weibos new services increasing income?A Negative B ConfidentC Indifferent D Positive 17Why did Fang Gang consider Sina Weibos charging its users good news?A Because Sina will make more moneyB Because Sina will lose the whole Weibo marketC Because Sohu will attract more usersD Because Sohu will offer free services18What can be inferred from the text?A Most of Weibo websites will charge their usersB Sina Weibos new move will be a great successC Sina Weibos users will enjoy more servicesD A large number of Weibo users like playing games19What can be the best title for the text?A Sina Weibo Faces Great ChallengesB Sina Weibo Launches Paid ServicesC Sina Weibo Expects Income IncreaseD Sina Weibo Becomes More Convenient Ereading and ebooks are slowly conquering the world.Compared to traditional paper books，ebooks in some schools and universities attract more interest because the information flow seems much easier to manage and comes in a greatly higher quantity.Japan is known for the reformminded attitude towards the gadget(精巧装置) world and for the fact that it is one of the first countries that encouraged in the educational system the emailing of homework.The digital textbook looks like the logical step in the world of learning.It is natural but it is also completely untraditional.The plan of the largest publishing companies to get in line with the trend is to save a large quantity of paper and make the kids become interested in learning using a cool gadget.Many USA universities and colleges have made students be used to the procedure of downloading the courses and of course the procedure involves interactive software and also the chance of using the computer.The traditional education system is still unwilling when it comes to giving up books.The standard approach of information taught out of a book and Shakespeare read out of an old school novel makes studying English as traditional as it can be.In a world where kids would rather see the movie than read a book，the digital age has brought along a completely different flavor to reading.Bringing that flavor in school will make teaching a greener and also a completely different matter.20Why are ebooks so popular in the world?AIts cheap to buy.BIts effective to use.CIts convenient to bring.DIts the latest fashion.21Which of the following words can best take the place of the word “reformminded” in the second paragraph?AOldfashioned.

To possess it is to be able to make the decisions, take the actions, and carry out your plan regardless of the obstacles, discomfort, or difficulties, that may come your way.How to develop self-discipline? Well explore it together. Start with baby steps. No process takes place overnight. 55 So, begin by making the decision to go forward and learning what it takes to get there. Learn what motivates you and what your bad triggers are. 56 . Sometimes it is very difficult to fight off urges, so know the areas where your resistance is low and how to avoid those situations. Remove the temptations and surround yourself with encouraging items such as motivating slogans and pictures of what you want to achieve. Make certain behaviors a routine. Once you have decided whats important to you and which goals to strive for, establish a daily routine that will help you achieve them. _57 They can put you in a negative frame of mind and hinder(阻碍)your self-discipline. A poor attitude can also be a bad habit.58 Michael Jordan has always maintained that his greatness as a basketball player came as much from his willingness to work hard at his craft, as it did his talent. It was his desire through discipline and focus that made him one of the best basketball players ever. If it worked for him, it could certainly work for the rest of us.A. What is self-discipline?B. Engage in sports or activitiesC. Get inspiration from those you admireD. You can begin by learning about yourself!E. If you try to do too much at once, you could injure yourself and have a setbackF.
