The book offers details about the characters of the spacemen, engineers and others who made the U.S. space program a success.‎ One Giant Leap Charles Fishman Simon & Schuster, $29.99‎ Getting to the moon required a million hours of work, this book says.

Apollo’s Legacy B On a cold day in early November 2015 I went outside to get our New York Times from the driveway and noticed a large cardboard box tied to the familiar blue bag. In the cardboard box was a pair of Google cardboard goggles( 护目镜) for watching VR videos. Upon reading the introductions, I downloaded (下载) the VR app and set up the Google cardboard goggles.‎ That Sunday, the app showed three pieces about the imaginary war damage. I remember very well standing in my kitchen with my wife and three children as we each took turns trying on the goggles and watching the short VR video of an airdrop(空投) of food. I couldn't help shaking while I looked around and saw people running to collect rice bags being dropped at my feet, which was so clear and seemed real.‎ It was a moment I will not forget, for in that moment I knew the future, my children's future, would look greatly different from what I had at that age. It must have been like the excitement my grandparents had when TV changed to color.‎ More importantly, I realized what effect these devices(设备) would have on my teaching.‎ That Monday I brought my pair of goggles in and a few pairs I borrowed from my neighbors to share the experience with my students. The purpose of the first lesson was pretty simple: to share this cool new experience with my students. The students were amazed and couldn't wait to use the goggles.

Doubtful C Halley’s Comet (哈雷彗星) appeared at the time of Mark Twain' s birth, making his arrival an even more special event. Twain said in 1909,“I came in with Halley's Comet in 1835. It is coming again next year, and I expect to go out with it.” Surprisingly enough, Mark Twain died the day after it passed by earth a second time .‎ Mark Twain was a gifted writer, speaker and humorist whose own characters shone through his work. As his writing grew in popularity, he became a public character in America. As the young country grew in size but not in a cultural manner to the liking of the European people, it became fashionable to criticize(批评)“the ugly American”. Twain travelled to Europe and made the Europeans friendly to America with his wisdom(智慧) and humor.‎ Twain began his working life as a typesetter at a newspaper, worked as a printer, a riverboat pilot, and then turned to gold mining. When he failed to strike it rich, he turned to journalism and it was during that time that he wrote the short story that started his writing life, The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras county.‎ Although Twain's life as a writer made him rich, his turn as a gentleman investor(投资者) did much to make him impoverished. He lost a great deal of money earned by writing on different investments. Twain recovered financially with the help of a man named Henry Huttleson Rogers. Further success from book sales improved his financial health.‎ 3. What can we learn about Mark Twain from the first paragraph?‎ A. He saw Halley's Comet coming.‎ B. He predicted his own death.‎ C.

Mark Twain’s work experiences.‎ D. Mark Twain's life goal.‎ 6. What does the underlined word "impoverished" in the last paragraph mean?‎ A. Poor B. Angry C. Unhealthy D. Busy.‎ D In Thailand, people use about eight plastic bags each day, almost 200 billion bags each year. As for causing ocean plastic pollution, Thailand is in the sixth place in the whole world. Thailand is waking up to the harmful effects of plastic pollution on our environment A supermarket chain in northern Thailand is returning to natural materials for everyday packaging(包装) use, including banana leaves. At first sight, Rimping supermarket in Chiang Mai looks just like other supermarkets that use banana leaves to wrap(包裹) food across Thailand.‎ However, it is unusual to see this traditional, biodegradable(可生物降解的) way used in a big way. Rimping Supermarket says that it no longer provides plastic bags every Wednesday for customers upon entering the place. In the supermarket, something different can be seen on the goods shelves of fresh vegetables. Instead of plastic, fresh products are wrapped in banana leaves. The leaves are great for packaging and once the customer is done with the packaging, the leaves are biodegradable, greatly reducing the need for plastics.‎ ‎“We have discussed our environmental programme for a long time in our company,” a manager of Rimping Supermarket said. “We tried other materials before, but banana leaves are our final choice since there are plenty of banana leaves in Thailand. But the difficulty is to find a way to keep the products fresh. Some vegetables are not suitable to be wrapped in banana leaves as it becomes too wet and doesn’t keep its freshness,” the manager said .‎ Rimping Supermarket's store programme can be seen as a huge step for a greener, plastic-free earth.‎ 3. What is the problem described in the first paragraph?‎ A. Thai shop too frequently. B. Thai overpack their food.‎ C. Thai pollute rivers seriously. D. Thai use too many plastics.‎ 4. What can we learn about using banana leaves to wrap food?‎ A. It isn’t something new in Thailand.‎ B. It is supported by the Thai government.‎ C. It first started from Rimping Supermarket.‎ D. It will be put into practice in more supermarkets.‎ 5. Why did Rimping Supermarket finally choose banana leaves to wrap food?‎ A. They are cheap.‎ B. They are easy to get.‎ C. They are the most environment-friendly.‎ D. They are perfect for wrapping fresh food.‎ 6. What's the text mainly about?‎ A. A supermarket finds best ways to sell fresh food.‎ B. Plastic packaging causes serious problems.‎ C. Banana leaves replace plastic packaging.‎ D. Supermarkets shouldn't offer plastic bags.‎ 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 3 分，满分 15 分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项 As a teenager, convincing yourself to stay away from electronics to plant a garden might not be an easy task. 16 This is because whether you have the yard space to grow a garden or there are community gardens in your area, getting yourself involved has several benefits.‎ For example, caring for plants helps you develop responsibility.
