Dear Bill,
I’m on the moon and everything is great. Now I live in the Moon Hotel. It is so nice! I can see our planet from my room.
Today I went to visit the largest meteorite crater (陨石坑) on the moon. It is so cold in the crater. You can’t believe how big it is! Tomorrow I’m going to climb Mount Apollo, and then I’ll visit Armstrong Museum. Neil Alden Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. Then it’s time for me to go home.
I will take photos and share them with you when I go back to the earth.
Your best friend,
Anna

Tom, an American boy, enjoys traveling very much. Last summer he became interested in Chinese history, so he went to Beijing and Xi’an by plane. He left on the 15th of July and went back to New York on the last day of the month. During that time, he visited places of interest and went shopping. At night, he took walks to enjoy night views (风景). He had a wonderful vacation.

【推荐3】People travel in different ways. Some plan their trips carefully before they set out, while others just like to go and see where the wind takes them. Now let’s look at both sides of the coin!
The first one is to plan. Planning can help you save money. By planning ahead, you have the time to find the cheapest tickets or hotels. Planning can also help you save time. You can plan your routes (路线) and make the most of your time. Planning can also make sure you see all the attractions (景点). Some attractions might only be open on certain days or certain hours. Some might need a booking. With a plan, you will not miss any of them.
The second one is not to plan. With no plan, you have much freedom. You can change your routes at any time! You can do anything and go anywhere with anyone you want at any time! You will be happy when you get surprises during your trip. With no plan, nothing can go wrong. So you don’t have to worry when a bus doesn’t come on time, or when you get on the wrong train. Just relax and go with the flow.
There’s no right or wrong way to travel with a plan or not. It is all about finding the right balance between the two and finding out which one works better for you.

【推荐1】Venus (金星) is the second closest planet to the sun. It is different from the earth in many ways. Here are four ways we think Venus is different:
Volcanoes (火山)
There are more volcanoes on Venus than those on the earth.
There are more than 1, 600 volcanoes on its surface (表面) , but there are possibly many more smaller ones that we can’t see. Scientists believe that most of these are not active, though a few may still be active.
Longer day than year
A day on Venus lasts 243 earth days, while a year on Venus is shorter, at just 224.7 earth days, If that’s just one day, think about what a work week would be like!
High temperatures and pressure
Temperatures on the surface can reach up to 470 degrees.
The air pressure on the surface of Venus is very high-about 90 times higher than the pressure on the earth, In other words, the pressure on Venus is about the same as the water pressure on the earth.
Russia sent a special machine to Venus. It took many photos of the land on Venus. But it did not stay long after landing because of the temperature and pressure.
A windy planet
Winds on Venus are strong and fast. They are faster than the fastest tornado (龙卷风) on the earth. Scientists say the winds on Venus blow so fast that they can drive clouds around the whole planet in four earth days.

The Moon is an unfriendly place.
But from the Moon, you can see our beautiful Earth. It is shining more brightly than the other stars in the dark.

【推荐3】The Big Bang theory offers us an answer about where the universe came from. But after learning about it, you might ask, “Where will the universe go? Will it ever come to an end?”
![](https://img.xkw.com/dksih/QBM/2021/5/14/2721154367078400/2722568808857600/STEM/05c46e82e72d4873885b829f45eaa81f.png?resizew=77)
Scientists have been thinking about these questions. However, it’s hard to know what will happen. After all, the universe is so big. Still, scientists have made some guesses about the ending of the universe. In the 1800s, the study of heat showed that the universe might someday experience
“heat death”. Our universe “runs” well because of temperature differences. It’s kind of like how a car engine is able to run because it’s hotter inside than outside. But if temperatures become the same everywhere in the universe, the universe will die.
Will the universe continue to expand? And what will the ending of the universe be like? Scientists gave us some related theories.
We know that our universe is expanding. Dark energy causes it to expand faster and faster. The theory, The Big Rip, suggests that this change will continue forever. Eventually, the faster and faster change will make everything in the universe be ripped. As the universe expands, galaxies, stars and planets will pull away from each other. Light from stars will no longer reach Earth. This will make the universe colder. Finally, the temperature of the universe will reach absolute zero. All movement stops at this temperature. This is called The Big Freeze. The Big Crunch is different from the other two. Instead of expanding forever, it suggests that the universe is heavy enough to stop the expansion. Then, like a star that grows too large, the universe will collapse in on itself, maybe creating a new singularity.
1. Which of the following is NOT the guess about the ending of the universe?A.The Big Crunch. | B.The Big Rip. | C.The Big Freeze. | D.The Big Bang. |
A.Being warm. | B.Being cool. | C.Being large. | D.Being small. |
A.The universe will surely come to an end one day. |
B.Maybe the universe won’t expand all the time because of its weight. |
C.Keeping the temperatures all the same can make the universe live longer. |
D.The universe expands so fast that everything in it will stick together like glue. |

Jack sighed (叹气) and threw his windpack (风包) by the front door. He kicked off his shoes and walked into the kitchen.
“I had to walk the whole 3 miles home from school today!” said Jack.
“Why did you have to walk?” Grandpa asked. “What’s wrong with your windpack?”
“The compressor (压缩机) is broken again. Windpacks are so much work.” he complained to Grandpa. “I wish they’d create something that easier to take care of.”
Grandpa smiled. “Jack, you don’t know how easy and clean windpacks are compared to cars.”
“You never actually had a car, did you, Grandpa?” Jack asked. “I thought those were no longer in use before you were old enough to have one of your own.”
Grandpa pulled a small, thin photo card out of his wallet and said: “I bought my car around 2025. ”
“That’s nearly 50 years ago!” cried Jack.
Grandpa took out a color photo of himself as a young man. He stood proudly next to a huge dark red vehicle (车辆). “This kind of car was called a truck.” Grandpa told Jack.
“Tell me again what made them run.” Jack said.
“Gas (汽油),” answered Grandpa. “The world is a much cleaner place without it,” he added. In the last 50 years, pollution has been cut down by 75%. I am certain that you and I will both live longer because of it.
Jack was quiet for a moment. “Grandpa, I guess windpacks aren’t as much of a pain as I sometimes think they are.”
Grandpa nodded as he put his photo card back. “There’s always room for improvement.” he said.

Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating. Others do not think that computers will replace our old ways.
Let’s look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We will read texts on small pocket computers. The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time. We won’t need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved. Computerized(计算机化) books will be used more and more.
Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop? Many people say it is not. It is a pleasure to go in to shops and look at things you want to buy. It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers. Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly. Maybe computers won’t change these two habits.
1. In paragraph1 it is thought people will use computers for _______.
A.playing games, shopping and making telephone calls |
B.making telephone calls, having meals and seeing films |
C.seeing films, buying food, and going for holidays |
