Whether or not there is life on other planets is one of the great mysteries of our time. Some people are sure that other life forms exist(存在) and say they may have already paid us a visit. Of course there are also many people who believe that other life forms can't exist and that Earth is the only inhabited(有人居住的) planet in the whole universe.
One man who thinks that other forms of life are almost certain to be out there is one of the world's most famous scientists, Stephen Hawking. He has suggested that aliens(外星人) are very likely to exist and they might not be quite as friendly as we imagine.
The universe, Hawking says, has 100 billion galaxies. Each one of them has hundreds of millions of stars. In such a big place, Earth can't be the only planet with life on it. Most life forms, he thinks, will be simple, but with so many different life forms out there, some could be quite clever and some could even be dangerous.
And if they are out there, Hawking believes that contact with them might be the end for us. If they have the technology to travel to reach us, then in his opinion they might only see Earth as a place of valuable resources. They may simply come to Earth, take what they want, destroy the rest and then leave again.
Hawking ever said, "If aliens ever visit us, I think the result will be like when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, and that didn't turn out very well for the Native Americans."
Hawking is not the only one who believes in clever life forms outer space. Lord Rees, another famous scientist, recently said that aliens could be so highly developed that they might exist in forms that are too difficult for us to understand.
So, maybe it's time to forget our ideas of little green men who come in peace, stop sending rockets outside of our solar system, and pretend that we really are alone in the universe.
(1)、What's the discussing point of the passage?A、Have aliens ever visited the earth? B、Are there any life forms outer space? C、Are there any planets which have humans? D、Can humans live on the other planets?(2)、In Hawking's description, what would the aliens be like?A、Awful and ugly. B、Little but developed. C、Clever and friendly. D、Smart but dangerous.(3)、From the passage, we can infer that ____.A、aliens might exist in forms which can be easily discovered B、making contact with other life forms might be a little too risky C、scientists disagree if it's necessary to send rockets into outer space D、Columbus brought good news to local people after landing in America(4)、What's the writer's attitude to the two scientists' opinion?A、Doubtful. B、 C、Worried. D、Supportive. -

Judy and I are always arguing! We fall out over crazy things, probably because we're so similar. We grew up together, and we've shared everything in our lives. I think we all need someone like that. When you move away from home to go to college, you start to change a lot, and it's good to have someone back home who knows everything about you.
Rachel
I only see Amy, once or twice a year. That's because we live in different countries. Her dad got a job in the Philippines. It was really hard at first, but we keep in touch every day through email. I have my everyday friends here, of course, and that's great, but I know that if I ever have a serious problem in my life, Amy's the person I'll turn to.
Emma
My parents moved a lot when I was growing up, so I always had to say goodbye to my best friends. It was really hard at first, having to make new friends again every year, but it got easier. When you realize that wherever you are, you're going to make new friends, then you're OK. Some of my old friends are even getting back in touch with me. It's pretty cool.
Mathew
To be honest, the first time I met Richard, I didn't like him at all. I thought he was a bit superior—you know, better than everyone else. But first impressions can be completely wrong. The next time we met was different, and now we get on so well. It's funny, but there are all kinds of reasons why you might get the wrong idea about someone on the first meeting.
Asil
(1)、What do the four notes above mainly deal with?A、A healthy lifestyle. B、A close relationship. C、A natural environment. D、A communication way.(2)、Who had a bad impression of his/her friend on the first meeting?A、Rachel. B、Mathew. C、Emma. D、Asil.(3)、In the four notes, which opinion of friends is mentioned?A、It can be easy to make new friends when moving to new places. B、Making a friend with someone who knows you well can change you. C、The first impressions will decide if you two can be good friends later. D、A friend is someone that you can turn to if you have a serious problem. -

Last week I went on a perfect school trip with my classmates. We visited the science museum and I think it was really interesting. We got there so fast by train and we saw some farms and villages along the way. At the museum, I learned a lot about robots and I was quite interested in that. I didn't know they could even play chess with us. It was cool. Then the guide taught us how to make a model robot. I took a lot of photos as well. After that, I went to the gift shop and bought some lovely gifts for my parents. They weren't expensive. All in all, it was an exciting day.

Say you're sitting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game that happens to be one of your favorites. "Oh, that game's easy. So not worth the time," one of your friends says. The others agree. Although you enjoy the game quite a lot, not wanting to argue with them, you go along with the crowd.
You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure(同 伴压力), also called peer influence. You will adopt a certain type of behavior, dress, or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your "peers". As a teen, you are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas.
We are all influenced by our peers at any age. For teens, as school and other activities take you away from home, you may spend more time with your friends than with your family. As you become more independent, your peers naturally play a greater role in your life. According to Dr Casey from Cornell University, teens are very quick and accurate in making decisions on their own and in situations where they have time to think. However, when they make decisions in the heat of the moment or in social situations, their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers. In a recent study, teen volunteers played a video driving game, either alone or with friends watching. The researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were watching, compared with when they played alone. This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around, or in situations where they are extremely angry.
Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices, they can also influence us to make good ones. A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it, or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important. In fact, friends often encourage each other to study, or try out for sports.
While we are always influenced by those around us, the decision to act or not is up to us. So when it comes to decision making, the choice is up to you.
(1)、According to the passage, Dr Casey probably agrees that teens ____.A、like to play driving games with their friends B、prefer situations where they have time to think C、may take more risks when their friends are around D、are slow in making decisions when they are on their own(2)、The underlined words "in the heat of the moment" in Paragraph 4 probably mean "____".A、when teens avoid possible risks B、when teens trust their judgment C、when teens lose control over their anger D、when teens give consideration to situations(3)、What can we learn from the passage?A、Teens are eager to be different from their peers. B、Peer pressure has effects on both teens and adults. C、Peer pressure does more harm than good to teens. D、Teens think it challenging to get good grades at school.(4)、Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A、Peer Pressure: Is It Necessary to Deal with It? B、Peer Pressure: Is It Possible to Get Away from It? C、Peer Pressure: Its Benefits to Teens and Friend Making D、Peer Pressure: Its Influence on Teens and Decision Making -

There are a lot of advantages of being tall besides being able to reach the top shelf without a step ladder. More cash? That's right. Tall men earn more money, reports Live Science. On the other hand, there is also a huge disadvantage. According to a new study from the University of California Riverside, tall people may be more likely to develop cancer.
Leonard Nunney, a researcher at UC Riverside, reviewed four large population studies about the height and cancer. Nunney studied more than 10,000 cases of cancer, and when he looked at the result given a person's height, he found that the cancer risk rises by 10 percent for every four inches above the average height.
"If you were comparing a five-foot guy to a basketball player who's over seven feet tall, then that basketball player would have around twice the risk of cancer across the board," he said.
In the study, which was published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, Nunney explained that one possible reason why tall people have an increased risk of cancer may be because of the simple fact that they have more cells(细胞) in their bodies. The more cell division happens in you, the greater the chances that cells will lead to tumour(肿瘤) growth.
Nunney found that the connection between the height and cancer risk was nearly the same with 18 out of the 23 types of cancer he tracked. He also discovered that skin cancer risk had an unexpectedly strong relationship with the height. And taller women had an increased risk of thyroid(甲状腺) cancer, as well.
(1)、What can we learn from the first paragraph?A、Tall people may be more successful in a work place. B、There are many disadvantages of being tall. C、Short people are healthier than taller ones. D、Tall people are more worried about money.(2)、Which might be the reason why tall people are more likely to develop cancer?A、They have to bow their heads more often. B、Their cells are weaker than others'. C、The number of their cells is larger. D、They exercise less because of the height.(3)、What does the text tell us about the relationship between cancer and height?A、All types of cancer are affected by the height. B、Tall people are more likely to have skin cancer. C、Tall women are at a lower risk of developing cancer. D、The height is the main part in causing cancer.(4)、What is the purpose of the text?A、To advise people to control the height. B、To show people a new discovery. C、To compare tall people with short ones. D、To ask tall people to see doctors. -

Smile Train is a charity that helps millions of children around the world, who suffer from a facial defect. The defect happens when a baby's top lip or mouth doesn't form properly before birth. Eating and drinking is very difficult for these babies. The charity provides free operations, which give these children a new smile, and with it, new hope and a new beginning.
Children with the defect need all the help. Although many sufferers are accepted by their families, sadly, others are not. In some countries, children with this defect are often abandoned at birth because their parents feel ashamed of them or cannot afford the operations. The good news is that the operation is not difficult. It takes less than an hour and costs the family nothing. The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to perform the operations.
A Smile Train doctor from the UK said, "Each child who has the operation is given a second chance at life. After years of staying at home, the children can finally go to school and be happy. Every year I perform hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train. Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising. One newborn baby girl was found abandoned on a train. Luckily for her, she was found and adopted(收养) by a passenger. This lady then heard about Smile Train and brought the baby to our hospital. I did the operation and gave hope to the family. Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local doctors. In this way make sure that these operations will always be available."
(1)、Smile Train is a charity which ____.A、provides food and medical care for poor children B、raises money for all the doctors working in the UK C、offers free medical help to children with the facial defect D、gives children without parents a new hope and a new beginning(2)、The underlined word "abandoned" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to "____".A、given up B、dressed up C、called up D、brought up(3)、What did the doctor from the UK think of his volunteer work?A、Dangerous. B、Surprising. C、Relaxing. D、Valuable.(4)、It can be inferred from the passage that ____.A、children with the facial defect are becoming more ashamed than before B、more doctors are trained to help children with the facial defect C、fewer baby boys with the facial defect are operated on than girls D、doctors in Smile Train are always well paid for doing the operations -

Something that I learnt from both my parents was the importance of having respect(尊重) for other people. I remember one day when we were travelling on a bus and1 sat down while other people were standing. My mother shouted at me "2 immediately! You have young legs and you don't need to sit down." At the time I felt shamed for being told of 3 , but now I understand. I think children nowadays have 4 that respect and it really makes me angry if I see children sitting down while 5 people are standing.
One area in which we had a lot of rules was table 6 . For example, we weren't allowed to start our meal 7 the oldest person had started. We had to say "thank you" when our food was 8 , and eat everything on our plates before we could 9 the table. We couldn't make any noise when eating. Worse than that, we were only 10 to have sweets at the weekend, as a special 11 if we had been good.
Although my upbringing(养育) was perhaps a bit 12 compared with modern children. I'm very thankful to my parents for giving me a clear 13 in life. Even though I was sometimes 14 , I think it has made me a better person. In my view, children need clear rules, but more than that they need to learn how to get on with 15 people and realize they are not the center of the world.
