On November 16, seven astronauts on the International Space Station ISS woke up to an alarm. A Russian missile (导弹) test had just exploded (爆炸) a satellite into more than 1,500 pieces. Some of them got very close to the ISS.

       NASA says these small pieces can travel at more than 28,000 km/h. That is much faster than a bullet (子弹) about 3,500 km/h.. Even a small piece could destroy a space station or kill an astronaut if he or she is doing a spacewalk, says Live Science.
       Since the 1950s, humans have sent thousands of rockets and satellites into space. Many are still there, and we now face an ever-increasing risk of space junk. In 2006, for example, National Geographic reported that a tiny piece of space junk hit the ISS, taking a chip (一小块) out of a window. In June of this year, a piece of debris (残骸) ran into one of the station’s robotic arms and left a hole.
       Scientists are trying different ways to deal with the problem. One way is to use a huge net. In 2018, the UK’s Surrey Space Center caught some space junk with a net in an experiment. It first found the debris, and then collected it with a net and a harpoon (鱼叉).
       Another solution is to use robotic arms. ClearSpace 1, the European Space Agency’s task to clean space junk, is going to be sent into space in 2025. It will use robotic arms to catch debris. The task plans to throw the debris into Earth’s atmosphere (大气层), where it will burn up.
1. From the passage,we can know that space debris can come from ______.

A．astronauts’ rubbish

B．the exploded Russian satellite

C．the International Space Station

D．rockets and satellites

2. According to NASA, space debris moves ______as fast as a bullet.

A．6 times

B．7 times

C．8 times

D．9 times

3. What can we infer (推断) from Paragraphs 3? ______

A．The risk of space junk is increasing.

B．We can do nothing to deal with space debris.

C．More and more tasks are failing because of space debris.

D．Old rockets and satellites are turning into junk

4. The good way to deal with space debris is ______.
a. collecting it with nets and harpoons
b. throwing it into the space station
c. throwing it into Earth’s atmosphere to burn up
d. collecting it with some big bags

A．ab

B．ac

C．bc

D．bd

【推荐3】Lima, the capital of Peru, is located in the central coastal part of the country, overlooking the Pacific Ocean. With a population of more than 9 million, Lima is one of the largest cities and the only capital in South America that faces the ocean.

Lima has a long history. The lost Inca civilization, is thought to be a mystery. There are many museums, where you can learn: How the ancient American Indians founded the Inca Empire and built Machu Picchu, a famous ancient city in the Andes Mountains; what happened in 1532 and why over 90% of Peruvians speak Spanish. Visiting the historic center, a World Heritage Site, you may find you are communicating with both the past and the present.

Lima is also a place where you can find the lifestyles and fashions, created by its people and culture. You will see Peruvian clothes, dances, and taste their delicious foods and drinks. You can see buildings in different styles, enjoy the fantastic sunset over the ancient ruins, climb the mountains, fly over the ocean, or sit in the restaurants and bars to experience Peruvians’ relaxing life.

You may have heard “It never rains in Lima.” In fact, the special geographic feature makes it not as dry as it is said to be and it is warm all year around. Though it seldom rains in summer, it sometimes drizzles on early winter morning. The drizzle and the wet air “water” the ground, which makes the crops and the plants grow. Moreover, modern technology helps to bring water from the snow and ice on the top of the Andes (over 6,000 m high) for the city to use. People there never waste water.

Lima is such an amazing city that it is worth a visit.

1. According to the passage, where is Lima on the map?

A．

B．

C．

D．

2. The underlined word “drizzle” probably means _______.

A．warm air

B．sea water

C．snow and ice

D．very light rain

3. Lima is a city ________.

A．which is rich in water resources	B．where people can learn Inca culture

【推荐1】When you feel a sneeze or cough coming on, covering your mouth prevents the spread of germs(细菌). You probably knew that. But how to cover your mouth is very important. You might use tissues(纸巾), and put your used tissues into the bin. "If you don't have tissues, you should sneeze into your elbow, not your hand even if you are used to doing that. "The doctors advised. "If somebody sneezes into his hands, those germs will be passed on to other people, or other objects that people touch. "said Dr. Hill.

Germs are most commonly spread by sneezing and coughing. When they land on your hands, they are passed from hands to things like money, doorknobs(扶手), elevator buttons(电梯按钮) and other surfaces. At the same time, the people around you can touch them.

This isn't nagging(唠叨), the Centers for Disease Control also suggest that sneezing and coughing into your elbow is necessary. Even the New York City subway officers ask the passengers to "cough or sneeze into elbow or use a tissue".

"The suggestion was taken seriously about 10 years ago. However, most people didn't pay much attention to it. That means the adults may have missed the advice. But children are often taught in school the right way to cough or sneeze. "Dr. Benjamin said.

To be clear, people can't keep away from all the risks in this way, but it's the best choice. At the same time, we'd better wear masks(口罩) and often wash our hands. "Hand washing is one of the most important things people can do to keep healthy. "Dr. Hill said.

1. According to this passage, when sneezing or coughing, you'd better not ________.

A．sneeze into your elbow	B．cover your mouth with tissues
C．use your hand to cover mouth	D．put the used tissues in the bin

2. If you sneeze or cough into hands, germs can spread through the following activities EXCEPT ________.

A．push the elevator buttons	B．shake hands with each other
C．touch door knobs	D．wash our hands

3. According to the passage, the wrong statement is that ________.

A．the New York City subway officers ask passengers to use a tissue

B．the adult may be used to sneezing into their elbows

C．the children are often taught in school the right way to cough or sneeze

D．wearing masks is a good way to keep away from germs

4. The main purpose of the article is ________.

A．to tell us the correct way to cover mouth when sneezing or coughing

B．to tell us how to prevent the spread of germs

C．to tell us it's necessary to sneeze or cough into elbow

D．to tell us how to keep away from all risks

【推荐1】On April 2, we said goodbye to Tiangong Ⅰ, China’s first space lab. According to the China Manned Space Agency(中国载人航天局), Tiangong Ⅰ re-entered the Earth’s atmosphere(大气层) and some of its debris(碎片) fell into the South Pacific Ocean.

There are many spacecraft(宇宙飞船) that are still in orbit(轨道) above the Earth. After finishing their trips, they will all re-enter the Earth’s atmosphere like Tiangong Ⅰ.

There are two types of re-entries: controlled re-entry and uncontrolled re-entry. Some satellites and manned spacecraft come back to the Earth in a controlled re-entry. Experts calculate(计算) the path of the falling spacecraft and its speed. They can guide the spacecraft to fall in a chosen area.

Some spacecraft may have problems while in space after a certain amount of time. These spacecraft come back in an uncontrolled re-entry. It is hard to tell when and where these spacecraft will fall until the last few hours. The US space station Skylab came back partially uncontrolled in 1979. Parts of the station fell in western Australia, but no one was hurt.

During re-entry, most of the spacecraft will burn up while passing through the Earth’s atmosphere. Only a small amount of the debris will reach the ground. The debris typically ends up falling into the ocean, China Daily reported.

1. The debris from Tiangong Ⅰ ________.

A．fell into the South Pacific Ocean

B．fell in western Australia

C．fell in the central part of the US

D．fell into the North Pacific Ocean

2. When the spacecraft finishes its trip, it will ________.

A．burn up and disappear

B．re-enter the Earth’s atmosphere

C．enter another orbit and stay in space

【推荐2】A few weeks ago, while I was driving to a friend’s house, I saw a mom and her child walking their dog along the road. The mom was wearing a really cool jumpsuit（连体衣）.

As I was driving past, I had my window down and shouted, “I love your jumpsuit!” She was surprised for a while and then smiled as I drove off.

After visiting my friend, I drove back and went to fill up my car. At the petrol station（加油站）, I saw the same woman again. As she was passing the entrance（入口）, I said, “Excuse me, were you just walking your dog not long ago?”

“Was that you? I was having such a bad morning and you really turned it around for me. Thank you,” she said with a big smile.

It made my heart sing and I almost cried. We gave each other a high five（击掌）and went on our way.

When you see something cool, just say it, as the person may need to hear it. When you feel excited to do something, act on it. You will make a difference.
