A
Bill Javis took over our village news-agency at a time of life when most of us only want to relax. He
just thought he would like something but not too much to do, and the news-agency was ready-made. The
business produced little enough for him, but Bill was a man who only wanted the simplicity and order and
regularity of the job. He had been a long-serving sailor, and all his life had done everything by the clock.
Every day he opened his shop at six a.m. to catch the early trade; the papers arrived on his door-step
before that. Many of Bill’s customers were city workers, and the shop was convenient for the station.
Business was tailing off by 10 o’clock, so at eleven sharp Bill closed for lunch. It was hard luck on
anybody who wanted a paper or magazine in the afternoon, for most likely Bill would be down on the river
bank, fishing, and his nearest competitor was five kilometers away. Sometime in the afternoon, the evening
paper landed on the doormat, and at 4 o’clock Bill reopened. The evening rush lasted till seven, and it was
worthwhile.
He lived in a flat above the shop, alone. Except in the very bad weather, you always knew where to
find him in the afternoon, as I have said. Once, on a sunny afternoon, I walked home along the river bank
from a shopping trip to the village. By my watch it was three minutes past four, so I was astonished to see
Bill sitting there on his little chair with a line in the water. He had had no luck, I could see, but he was
making no effort to move.
“What’s wrong, Bill?” I called out from the path.
For answer, he put a hand in his jacket and took out a big, golden object. For a moment I had no idea
what it could be, and then it suddenly went off with a noise like a fire engine. Stopping the bell, Bill held
the thing up and called back, “Ten to four, you see, and this is dead right.”
I had never known anyone carrying a brass alarm clock round with him before.
31. Bill Javis became a news-agent when ________.
A. he needed the money. B. he decided to take things easy
C. he was quite an old man D. he gave up clock- repairing
32. Bill opened the shop so early in the day because ________.
A. he liked to do as much as possible before he went to work
B. the shop had to be open when the morning papers came
C. he was never sure of time
D. it was then that he did a lot of business
33. On that sunny afternoon, the writer was surprised when he saw Bill because _______.
A. he thought it was late for Bill to be still fishing
B. he thought Bill was ill, since he was not moving at all
C. Bill had not caught anything, and that seemed strange
D. Bill stayed in his flat
34. From the information given in the passage, who or what do you think was wrong?
A. The bell was; it must have gone off at the wrong time.
B. Bill was; he had dropped off to sleep.
C. The writer’s watch was it went fast.
D. Bill’s clock was it was old.

How the iron of tomorrow (the first Self Clean Iron) can change your lifestyle today?
General Electric introduces the iron of tomorrow. The iron can clean itself inside where irons get dirty.
Because it cleans itself each and every time you empty it.
How? With a push of a magic blue button.
The magic blue button
The first thing you'll notice that's different about this iron is the blue button on the side. It's marked
“Self Clean”. Push this blue button, and you can wash out loose mineral deposits that remain and block up
inside. Push this button, and you’ve made life a lot easier.
Less chance of brown spots
Sure, Self Cleaning Iron is going to cut down on brown spots. (Those ugly spots that happen on nice,
cleanly pressed clothes.) Because a Self Cleaning Iron becomes clean each time you press that magic blue
button.
Steams much longer
Common sense tells you that if you've an iron that blocks less often it has to stay younger for a long
period of time. In other words, it steams much longer. That’s another joy of owning General Electric’s Self
Cleaning Iron.
What does it mean to you?
Today you are doing so much more than just running a house and running after the kids. You're
working. You're going to school. It's all part of your lifestyle. The iron can change that lifestyle. By giving
you less trouble before you iron. If we can make it easier for you to be a better wife, a better mother, a
better house- maker, we want to. The new Self Cleaning Iron is another one of Home-Makers from General
Electric.
Life-style. We're with yours. GENERAL ELECTRIC.

C
Most people, when they travel to space, would like to stay in orbit for a few days or more. And this
stands to reason, if you’re paying $$20,000 for your trip to orbit! So in order for tourism to reach its full
potential there’s going to be a need for orbital accommodation — or space hotels. What would a space hotel
actually be like to visit? Hotels in orbit will offer the services you expect from a hotel —private rooms,
meals, bars. But they’ll also offer two unique experiences: impressive views — of Earth and space — and
the endless entertainment of living in zero gravity — including sports and other activities that make use of
this.
The hotels themselves will vary greatly — from being quite simple in the early days to huge luxury
structures at a later date. It’s actually surprising that as late as 1997, very few designs for space hotels were
published. This is mainly because those who might be expected to design them haven’t expected launch
costs to come down far enough to make them possible.
Lots of people who’ve been to space have described vividly what it’s like to live in zero gravity. There
are obviously all sorts of possibilities for dancing, gymnastics, and zero-G sports. Luckily, you don’t need
to sleep much living in zero gravity, so you’ll have plenty of time for relaxing by hanging out in a bar with
a window looking down at the turning Earth below.
Of course all good things have come to an end, unfortunately. And so after a few days you’ll find
yourself heading back though you’ll be much more expert at exercising in zero gravity than you were when
you arrived. You’ll be thinking how soon you can save up enough to get back up again — or maybe you
should change jobs to get to work in an orbiting hotel.
39. When traveling in space, most people would like to stay in orbit for a few days because _____.
A. it is expensive to travel in space
B. they would find the possible life in other star systems
C. they could enjoy the luxury of space hotels
D. they want to realize the full potential of tourism
40. Which of the following is a unique experience that space hotels will offer?
A. The gravitational pull. B. The special views.
C. The relaxation in a bar. D. The space walk.
41. Which of the following is NOT discussed in the passage?
A. When was the space traveling made possible?
B. What are the unique experiences that space hotels will offer?
C. Why were there not many published designs for space hotels?
D. How can the travelers enjoy themselves in space hotels?
42. This passage is mainly about ________.
A. traveling in space
B. the ways of living in space hotels
C. zero gravity and space hotels
D. the description of space hotels

US researchers have found traces of an ancient lake on Mars recently, increasing hopes of discovering
evidence that billions of years ago the Red planet hosted life.
The lake, which dates back some 3.4 billion years, appears to have covered as much as 80 square
miles and was up to 1,500 feet deep, said the team from the University of Colorado.

Gaetano Di Achille, in a study published in the latest edition of Geophysical Research Letters.

size and volume of the lake, which appears to have formed about 3.4 billion years ago.
Analysis of the images has shown the water carved out the canyon (溪谷) in which it was found,
which then opened out into a valley depositing (使淤积) sediment (沉积) which formed a delta (三角洲).

the lake existed at a time when Mars was thought to have been cold and dry.
Scientists believe the oldest surfaces on Mars formed during the wet and warm era known as the
Noachan epoch, about 4.1 billion to 3.7 billion years ago.
The newly discovered lake is believed to date from the Hesperian era and postdates the end of the
warm and wet period on Mars by 300 million years, according to the study.
Scientists believe deltas next to the lake may well hold secrets about past life on Mars as such places
on Earth have become the natural deposits of organic carbon and other markers of life.
43. The size of the lake found on Mars is ______.
A. 80 square miles B. 1,500 square miles
C. 3.4 billion square miles D. 300 million square miles
44. When the lake existed, the weather on Mars was ____.
