二、阅读理解（3道小题，共30分）
The atmosphere is a blanket of gases around the Earth. For thousands of years these gases have kept the planet’s temperature at about 15oC. But now, because of
pollution, there are more and more hot gases put into the atmosphere. This means the Earth is getting hotter. A greenhouse becomes hot for the same reason. It’s a glass that
lets the sun’s heat pass through, then stop some of it from leaving. That’s why scientists call the problem of the Earth’s rising temperature “the Greenhouse Effect”.
Scientists agree that the Greenhouse Effect will add between 1.5oC-4oC to the Earth’s temperature by 2030. This will change the weather everywhere.
Then there is the problem of food. When the climate changes there will be less food in the world. At the moment areas like the Midwest of America and central Russia grow
a lot of wheat. In the future that may change when the USA and Russia become too dry for farming. Other countries will become wetter, but that won’t help. The soil won’t
possible to grow the same amount of food as before.
We can’t stop the Greenhouse Effect. However, we can slow it down if we use less fossil fuel, protect rain-forest, use more natural energy from the sun, the sea and wind.

By sending a man into space, China is hoping to join the United States and Russia in one of the clubs in the world.
Following a recent successful, though unmanned, test launch, China announced that it would attempt to send two men into space later this year on a Shenzhou V rocket.
While the names of China’s first astronauts have yet to be announced, at least 14 fighter pilots have been chosen to train for the mission, and some have been sent to Russia.
While China has been developing rockets since the 1950s, it has recently made great progress in rocket technology and regularly launches commercial satellites for US and
British companies.
China’s launch would come over 40 years after the first manned space flight. But manned space flight is still a risky effort, and the Chinese rocket will be launched
while memories of the recent Space disaster are still fresh.
However, China’s space ambitions seem to extend beyond putting people into space, with officials hinting that China may be the second country to ever put a man on the
moon.
“The short-term goal is to send Chinese people into space,” said Huang Chunping, Chief commander of rocketry for the Shenzhou project. “The grand vision for the future
is to explore space. Both are inspiring to the Chinese people.”
1. China would be the ______ nation to send a man into space.

A) first

B) second

C) third

D) fourth

2. The Shenzhou V rocket planned to have ______ passengers, according to the passage.

A) one

B) two

C) three

D) four

3. All of China’s potential astronauts are former ______.

A) fighter pilots

B) scientists

C) engineers

D) bodyguards

4. China has previously launched ______ for US and British companies.

A) weather balloons

B) airplanes

C) helicopters

D) satellites

5. According to the passage, ______ has been accomplished.

A) sending unmanned rocket into space

B) sending manned rocket into space

C) sending a man into space

D) sending a man on the moon

Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Stanford, Columbia: These schools have a lot in common. Their admissions are incredibly competitive, they charge a high price and graduates have
a big advantage in finding a good job. In fact, graduates from famous schools might not enjoy as much of an advantage in the job markets as many think, and that a big name on
your diploma doesn’t always mean a big payoff.
Let’s start with the cost: Tuition at the top schools can easily average $35, 000 per year or more, while a lesser-known school might cost up to $ 20, 000 areas so
students have to add their living costs to their tuition bill.
Once they graduate, however, students are often facing with thousands of dollars of debt that they need to repay. The reasoning goes that graduates from big-name schools
can write their own ticket, but the statistics don’t bear this out. Graduates from a school which requires test scores high above the average can expect to make an extra 5％
more than others, but that doesn’t justify paying 40％ more for tuition.
Graduating from a lesser-known school with the same academic qualifications can make you the same money over the long run. Long-range studies show experience and
performance eventually matter much more than the name on your degree, especially when times get tough.
1. Big-name universities are NOT famous for their ______.

A) competitiveness

B) high tuition

C) fame

D) financial aid

2. Graduates from famous schools ______ get jobs with good pay.

A) always

B) never

C) donˊt always

D) rarely

3. The tuition of the famous schools averages ______ per year.

A) $ 35,000

B) $ 30,000

C) $ 25,000

D) $ 20,000

4. Managers today prefer to hire people with ______.

A) experience

B) good fame

C) a big-name diploma

D) much money

5. If someone writes his own ticket, he ______

A) is good at writing

B) is in trouble

C) has a lot of choices

D) is very important
