For years in the United States, on1y men had that opportunity . In 1983, that changed. Sally Ride made history by becoming the first American woman to travel to space.On Monday, Ride died at the age of 61, Sally was a national hero and a powerful role model,”President Barack Obama said in a statement. “She inspired generations of young girls to reach for the stars.”Ride became interested in space when she was a kid. “If you asked me when I was 12 whether I wanted to be an astronaut ,Im sure I wou1d have said yes,” she said in a 2010 interview . “ But I didnt even think about that as a possible career.”After studying physics in college and graduate school, Ride got her chance. She was accepted into NASAs astronaut training program in 1978, and then chosen to be the first American female in space. In 1983, she blasted into space aboard the Challenger shuttle.“There is no amusement park ride on the Earth that even comes so close,” she said.Ride returned to space on the Challenger a second time in1984 . Between the two missions, she spent a total of 343 hours in orbit. After that, she remained involved with the space program and also worked to share her passion for science with kids. She co-authored six science books for children , and started her own science education company.Ride knew that she he1d a unique place in history . “ I realized how important it was for a woman to break that barrier and open the door for other women to be able to do the same exciting things that the men had been doing,” she said.Since Rides historic trip, more than 40 other American women have traveled to space. They all had Ride to thank for opening the door to the final frontier.1Sally Ride was regarded as a national hero because she_ .A. was the first American to travel to spaceB. opened a door for women to find jobs suitable for themC. became the first American female in spaceD. was the first to travel on the Challenger2By saying There is no amusement park ride on the Earth that even comes so close”, Ride really meant_ .A. she preferred a ride in an amusement park on the EarthB. the trip to space was like that in an amusement parkC. she came close to an amusement park on the EarthD. the trip to space was far more interesting than any ride on the Earth3 The correct order of the following events that happened to Sally Ride is_ a. accepted into an astronaut training programb. spent a total of 343 hours in orbitc. co-authored six science books for childrend. traveled to space aboard the Challengere. studied physics in co11ege and graduate schoolA. e-a-b-c-d B. a-d-b-c-e C. e-a-d-b-c D. e-a-b-d-c4The passage is most probably taken out of _ .A. a novel B. a report C. a diary D. an essayBIf your mother wants to tell you something , she uses words .

Some birds can give certain information to one another.CWith only about 1 000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone the animal and save the endangered species . Thats a move similar to what a Texas A&M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noahs Ark”.Noahs Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos , semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A &Ms College of Vetreinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.It is estimated that as many as 2 000 species of mammals, birds and reptiles will be come extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.“The nuclear transfer of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available (capable of being used) panda eggs could be a major problem,” Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby). It takes a long time and its difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort,” adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A&M, the first ever attempt at cloning a dog.“They are trying to do something thats never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noahs Ark. Were both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and theres a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. Its a research that is very much needed.”9The aim of “Noahs Ark” project is to _.A. make efforts to clone the endangered pandasB. save endangered animals from dying outC. collect DNA of endangered animals to studyD. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another10According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of _.A. available panda eggs B. host animalsC. qualified researchers D. enough money11The best title for the passage may be _.A.

Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dogB. scientists try to implant a pandas egg into a rabbitC. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researchesD. about two thousand species will probably die out in a centuryDFarmer John and Farmer Bob were neighbours. For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well.Then their good relationship broke. It began with a small thing, then bitter words, and then weeks of silence. One morning Farmer John woke up to find a stream between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought.Then one day there was a knock on Johns door.

Thats my neighbour Bob. He dug a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fencean 8-foot fence. I dont want to see his place or his face any more. I dont have such a neighbour!”The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and Ill be able to do a job that pleases you.”Farmer John helped the carpenter get the materials(材料) ready and then he was off for the day.About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmers eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched(伸出). “Hi, John! Youre quite a fellow to build this bridge!”Then they met in the middle, taking each others hands. “Im terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other.” said Farmer Bob.Then they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said Farmer John. “Id love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”13What does the sentence “Youre quite a fellow to build this bridge!” mean?A.
