Four volunteers, who spent more than a year living in a 1,700-square-foot space created by NASA to simulate
模仿）the environment on Mars, have left their habitat.
（
The members of the Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog（模拟）mission—or CHAPEA—
walked through the door of their home at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston to a round of applause. "Hello.
It's actually just so wonderful to be able to say hello to you all, " CHAPEA commander Kelly Haston said to the
crowd.
Haston and the other three crew members—science officer Anca Selariu, flight engineer Ross Brockwell and
medical officer Nathan Jones, entered the 3D-printed Mars environment on June 25, 2023, as part of a NASA
experiment to observe how humans would react to living on the Red Planet.
The volunteers grew their own vegetables, maintained equipment, participated in so-called Marswalks and faced
stressful situations that actual space travelers to Mars could experience, including 22-minute communication delays
with the Earth.
The 378-day effort was the first of three NASA missions the space agency has planned to test how humans
would respond to the conditions and challenges of living on Mars, where NASA says it could send astronauts as soon
as the 2030s. The second CHAPEA mission is scheduled for the spring of 2025, and the third is going to begin in
2
026.
After coming out of the simulated Mars habitat, Anca Selariu reflected on why she and others chose to devote
themselves to this particular effort. "I've been asked many times: Why go to Mars?" Selariu said. "Because it's
possible. Because space can unite and bring out the best in us. Because it's one critical step that humans will take to
light the way into the next centuries."
NASA has conducted other isolation experiments before, including simulated journeys through space of roughly
3
0 days and underwater missions lasting up to three weeks at a time.
4. What is the main purpose of the CHAPEA mission?
2
A. To train astronauts for future missions.
C. To develop new space travel technologies.
B. To explore how to grow plants on Mars.
D. To study human reactions to living on Mars.

5. What do we know about the crew of the mission?
A. They all walked in space several times.
C. They lived in an artificial environment.
B. They were all experienced astronauts.
D. They exited 22 minutes later than planned.
2
6. What does Anca Selariu say about Mars exploration?
A. It is challenging and costly.
B. It is important for our future.
D. It will be delayed till the 2030s.
C. It is too dangerous for humans.

7. Where is the text probably from?

With massive factors influencing academic achievement, it can be difficult to identify the exact reason why some
students excel（胜过）while others fall behind. However, a report released by the National Center on Scaling Up
Effective Schools（NCSU）shows that student ownership and responsibility are key factors that have a big impact on
a student's quality of academic performance.
The report presented findings from the first phase of a five-year research project that aims to identify the types of
programs, practices and processes that support better outcomes for students at risk of failure. Initial findings indicated
that the practice of increasing student ownership and responsibility for their academic success was a distinguishing
feature of schools with higher student achievement. The researchers explain that students who take responsibility for
their own learning are personally invested in their education and are more committed to understanding their subject
matter.
One thing that all schools with higher value-added students had in common was that they held high expectations
for student leaning. These schools didn't just assume that students would develop this sense of responsibility on their
own; instead, teachers put specific structures in place to help students take ownership of their education, and made a
concentrated effort to encourage and support students along the way. Additionally, teachers held the mindset that
student ownership must be developed early on in a student's educational career.
The research shows that students who are encouraged to take ownership of their own learning are better able to
work toward learning goals and demonstrate life skills such as initiative, self-direction and productivity. Such students
will show their responsibility through behaviors such as completing assignments on time, making up for missed work,
seeking additional help when they are struggling, asking questions when confused, and monitoring their own learning.
Lead researcher Marisa Cannata points out that these findings are consistent with the current research that
focuses on helping students develop so-called "growth mindsets（心态）" and providing them with the skills they
need to focus their learning efforts. The specific practices and conditions that make such a learning environment
possible are described in more detail in the report Reaching for Rigor: Identifying Practices of Effective High Schools.

Years ago, the world-known Viennese philosopher Viktor E. Frankl criticized the popular understanding of some
cherished American values, such as our idea of freedom. He took exception to what appeared to be a commonly
accepted view of equating freedom with a license to do virtually anything one wants. To Frankl, freedom without
responsibility was nonsense. That is why he suggested that the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor on the East
Coast be accompanied by a "Statue of Responsibility” somewhere along the West Coast.
Such a monument makes sense to me and, in my view, would be much more than just a "bookend" to the Statue
of Liberty. It could serve, among other things, as an important reminder to everyone of what is required to safeguard
true freedom and how to perform civil responsibilities.
A nonprofit foundation exists to advance Frankl's idea with the goal of completing the statue. After the initial
release of Prisoners of Our Thoughts, which I was honored to write at Dr. Frankl's personal urging, I also became
involved in the nonprofit foundation's efforts in an advisory capacity as well as being invited to be one of the
contributors to a book it sponsored entitled, Responsibility 911: With Great Liberty Comes Great Responsibility,
published in 2008. This book examined the role that responsibility plays in a free society. In this regard, I was
honored to be among a very distinguished group of contributors.
As you can learn from this list, the book embraced a wide range of ideologies（意识形态）and political beliefs.
Indeed, making a strong and diversified case for the role of responsibility in a free society belongs to no one political
party or a particular group. Rather, responsibility is a demonstration of the "ability to respond" and, in this context,
requires rules of engagement that include both civility and agreement to disagree on matters of common concern.
Diversity in all of its various dimensions, especially the diversity of thought, must be respected as a necessity of
"
responsibility" in the collective（集体, 共同）. Otherwise, we will never be able to reach common ground, a
meaningful objective requiring, first and foremost, that we are willing and able to go to higher ground.
2. What does the underlined part "took exception to" in paragraph 1mean?
A. Disapproved. B. Misunderstood. C. Excluded.
3. Why does the author believe a Statue of Responsibility is needed?
3
D. Compared.
3
A. To honour the legacy of humanity.
B. To promote tourism on the West Coast.
C. To symbolize the importance of freedom.
D. To urge people to perform their civil duties.
3
4. What do we know about Responsibility 911?
A. It was sponsored by Viktor E. Frankl.
C. It was recommended by many celebrities.
B. It is a collective work of diverse writers.
D. It is based on Prisoners of Our Thoughts.
3
5. What is necessary for a responsible society according to the author?
A. Respecting the diversity of thought.
C. Having a uniform ideology and belief.
B. Ignoring different political beliefs.
D. Controlling various dimensions of diversity.
