Pluto's recent departure from the classical planet family clearly proves that size really matters. Astronomers voted on August 24 to create the first scientific definition of the word "planet ", and Pluto obviously didn't make the cut. It turned out to be only a "dwarf planet (矮行星) ". After weeks of heated debate, over 2, 500 astronomers from 75 countries voted on the definition of a "planet" at a conference of the International Astronomical Union ( IAU ). According to the definition, a planet must have a clear neighbourhood around its orbit. Pluto has widely been considered a planet since its discovery in 1930. Unfortunately, it has a special orbit which overlaps with Neptune's. It is all because, compared with Neptune, Pluto is very small. It is attracted by Neptune's gravity when the two planets get closer. According to IAU, a "dwarf planet" should have an orbit around the Sun. It will not have a clear neighborhood around its orbit, and must not be a satellite. The new classification means that the science textbooks will have to be updated. The solar system is now made up of the eight "classical planets," together with a number of dwarf planets. The classical planets are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The debate over Pluto's status started in 1992. After an advanced telescope was sent into space, astronomers started to find a belt of objects, which lies beyond Neptune. The belt contains nearly 1,000 objects, including Pluto. As they continued the exploration, scientists recently discovered at least 41 dwarf planets at the edges of the solar system. There are at least two objects of a similar size to Pluto. It seems that even if the IAU had kept Pluto's status as a planet, the classical theory of nine planets in the solar system would have had to be changed, but the other way around. More dwarf planets of a similar size to Pluto would join the family of planets. Scientists will probably find many more dwarf planets. 41. The main purpose of the text is to ____________. A. prove to the readers that size matters B. tell readers about a big change of the planets C. explain the classical theory of planets D. inform us of science textbooks being updated 42. We can infer from the text that _____________. A. eight planets make up the solar system B. it has been hard for scientists to define a "planet" C. Mars is very hot and you can't go near it D. Pluto shares the same orbit with Neptune 43. Scientists argued about Pluto's status for a long time because _____________. A. Pluto was first discovered in 1930 B. the family of planets is too big C. Pluto is located beyond Neptune D. many dwarf planets, like Pluto, were found 44. The reason for Pluto's departure is that ____________. A. Pluto does not fit the definition of a "planet" B.

If you want to meet people and make friends, you must first go where there are people, for staying home alone won't have any chances of making friends. Some people are nervous when talking to strangers, so try to act self-confidently when you want to make friends with others. Don't wait for others to start a conversation with you when you feel like talking with them. Friendship is based on mutual liking and "give and take". You should also develop different interests in your daily life, for a person with different interests is easy to make friends with others. If you do as I tell you, I'm sure you can make friends with others.

My teacher found me depressed. One day he asked me to come to his office and told me about his attitude towards life "We might suffer from making mistakes, but it's important to model ourselves into the people we will become. All the growing pains and the embarrassing things we may experience are part of the process. We never stop growing up, so learn from it and keep up your spirit! "At last, he added, "if you are optimistic, things you want may happen to you!" Warm feelings rush through my soul. I suddenly found the sun shining again when I stepped out of his office. With the teacher's help, I eventually got over my depression. From then on, I no longer bowed my head but began smiling to my classmates. I would put up my hand confidently in class and kid with my new friends in my spare time. Meanwhile, I was gradually embraced by my classmates.

Centuries ago, however, crossing the open seas required thorough and accurate planning, handmade boats, and courage. Scientists and historians have long been looking for clues to explain who crossed which oceans first. When it comes to the trip between Polynesia (玻利尼西亚中太平洋群岛) and South America, chickens may have been among the first ocean voyagers, according to new evidence. After studying an ancient chicken bone, anthropologists (人类学家) from the University of Auckland in New Zealand now say that people and chickens traveled from Polynesia to what is now Chile (智利) by about 620 years ago. By then, the Inca people were already living in South America, but the Polynesians would have been the first to get there by sea. Previous theories claimed that European explorers and their chickens sailed to South America first -- but those voyagers didn't arrive until about a century later. In 2002, archaeologists dug up 50 chicken bones from a site in Chile called El Arenal. The team from New Zealand analyzed one to these bones. According to their calculations, the bone is about 650 years old. The researchers also compared the genetic material, or DNA, from the South American chicken bone with DNA from 11 chicken bones that had been found on the Polynesian islands of Tonga and American Samoa. These islands are 6,000 miles west of Chile. The bones found on the Polynesian islands are been 600 and 2,000 years old. Results of the comparisons showed that the chicken bones from both the Polynesian and South American sites had part of DNA in common. The researchers found the same part of DNA in feathers of two living chickens in Chile that belong to a modem breed that lays blue eggs. That DNA evidence suggests a close relationship among the chickens. "However, the weight of scientific evidence is now behind the hypothesis (假设) that it was seafaring ( 航海) Polynesians who sailed from the islands to South America and returned," says archaeologist Patrick V. Kirch of the University of California, Berkeley. 41. What is the passage mainly about? A. It was difficult for ancient people to travel between Polynesia and South America. B. The first people who lived in Chile and Polynesia. C. Valuable chicken bones have been found in Chile. D. Chickens -- the first to travel between Polynesia and South America. 42. When did the first European explorers reach South America? A. About 620 years ago. B. About 2.000 years ago. C. About 600 years ago. D. About 520 years ago. 43. People found that chickens were among the first to travel from Polynesia to South America by ___________. A. comparing the colors of eggs laid by chickens from the two places B. comparing the DNA of chicken bones dug up on the Polynesian islands and that of the chicken bones from South America C. studying some previous theories D. asking the natives of South America 44. What do we learn from the passage? A. European explorers and their chickens were the first to sail to South America. B. Chickens in South America have the same ancestors as those in Polynesia. C. In ancient times, a 6,000-mile channel separated Polynesia from South America. D. Before the Polynesians arrived in South America, the Inca people had lived there. ' 45. Why was it difficult for people to travel across the oceans in ancient times, according to the passage? 1) It was difficult to take many chickens as food. 2) People had difficulty making careful and detailed sailing plans. 3) People lacked maps and the knowledge of weather forecasting. 4) People had to make boats by hand. 5) It took great determination to cross an ocean.

Therefore, I am interested in all kinds of Olympic swimming sports. Especially, I am fond of water gymnastics for two major reasons-the amazing movements and those sexy and those very beautiful women swimmers. Most importantly, I like the great music and their amazing performance in water ballet. When I watch this Olympic sport, I can learn their professional techniques in swimming. For example, swimmers' performance is evaluated based on a series of predetermined elements. Arm sections and figures, similar to those of figure skating, are also required, and all elements must be presented in a specific order. Because synchronized (同步的) swimming routines require exceptional breath control, judges also take into consideration the ability of the swimmers to preserve the illusion (n.幻想) of effortlessness while holding their breath for up to two minutes.

These days are to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with child-care. These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother's Day, people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It's also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery, on these days families get together at home as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father's Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories. Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are more valued than those bought in stores. It's not the value of the gift that is important, but "the thought that counts ". Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakers, phone companies and other stores do lots of business during these holidays. 41. Which is not a reason for children to show love and respect for parents? A. Parents bring up children. B. Parents give love and care to children. C. Parents educate children to be good persons. D. Parents pass away before children grow up. 42. What can we learn from the passage? A. Both festivals are in May. B. Fewer women worked outside the home in the past. C. Not all the children respect their parents. D. Fathers are not as important as mothers at home. 43. What do you know about "carnation" ( Paragraph 2 ) ? A. It only has two kinds of color. B. It refers to the special clothes people wear on Mother's Day. C. It's a kind of flower showing love and best wishes. D. People can wear them only on the second Sunday in May. 44. On Mother's Day and Father's Day ____________. A. people usually have family parties B. everyone goes to the cemetery C. children always go to parents' home D. hand-made cards are the most valuable gifts 45. What do you think "florists" (Paragraph 3) do? A. They sell flowers. B. They make bread or pastry. C. They offer enough room for having family parties. D.

Your teacher Lin Lin 答案: Dear Rose, I'm happy to hear from you and know that you set your new goal and have begun your study in another school. It is natural that you feel lonely in your new class as you did in your old one, but I'm sure you'll get along well with the other classmates in your new class if you find chances to make friends with them, in which way you'll find them just as understanding as your old ones. The reason why you feel too tired and can't concentrate yourself may be that you don't organize your time well enough and can't get enough sleep. Don't work too late or too hard and you are likely to get less tired. Try to be more confident and you'll succeed. Wish you every success. 查看更多
