Li Qiang was taking up the prize to travel to 3008 AD. It was his first time that he     1    (travel) to space. So he was unsettled for the journey. Luckily, his guide, Wang Ping, was also his friend and gave him much help.

    2     (transport) by Wang Ping’s parents’ company, he arrived in the future in a time capsule. At first, he found it hard     3     (tolerate) the new surroundings and his head ached     4     lack of fresh air. Wang Ping hurried him to a small room for     5     rest and then they each collected a hovering carriage driven by computer. Soon Li Qiang could fly as     6     (swift) as Wang Ping.     7     he lost sight of Wang Ping because of too many carriages     8     (fly) by in all directions. Wang Ping was swept up into the center of them. After a while Li Qiang caught up with him.

Arriving at a strange-looking house, Wang Ping showed Li Qiang into a large room. The wall of the room was made of trees. The leaves of the trees provided     9     with much-needed oxygen. After having a meal and a bath, Li Qiang found himself     10     (exhaust) and then he slid into bed.

The Chang’e 4 spacecraft landed on the so-called dark side of the moon at 10:26 am on Thursday, brought the country    1    (close)to its goal of becoming a space power. Chang’e 4 sent a picture    2    ( take) at 11:40 am back to Earth. It shows that the moon’s far side is not    3    (absolute) dark. But it is often called the dark side because it faces away from Earth and little    4    (know) about it. In fact,the far side of the moon is a rather quiet place that is free from disturbance from radio    5    (signal) from the Earth.

Hou Xiyun is a professor at Nanjing University’s school of astronomy and space science,     6    told the Associated Press,   “    7    the whole, China’s space technology still lags behind the West,with the landing on the far side of the moon, we have raced to the front.”

He added，”The landing is    8    example of China’s growing desire     9    (strengthen) its position as an international power.

China plans to explore Mars, Jupiter and asteroids in the future.”

There’s no doubt that our nation will go farther and farther.

It’s hoped     10     our space dream to make China stronger will come true soon.

3 . Can you imagine waking up each day in a house that is     1     (gentle) rocked by the movement of water? Well, for some people this vision of the future may become a reality.

It is a commonly accepted fact that       2     the Earth’s temperature rises, the ice caps at the North and South Poles will melt,     3     (cause) the sea level to rise.

So, where does this leave the many countries in the world       4    have large sections of their populations living in areas which lie at or below sea level? The Netherlands, for example, is one of       5     most highly populated, low-lying countries and       6     (battle) with the problem of flooding for years. Further rises in the sea level would result in much of the country disappearing under water.

Inventive architects may have come up with a       7     (solve) to the problem: a house actually built on the water. The basic idea is that houses will have a base       8     (fill) with air and a way of anchoring(使固定) them to the ground. This will allow the house       9     (move) upwards whenever the sea level rises and sink back down when the sea level drops. So, will       10     (float) houses be the homes of the future? For some people there may be no alternative.

4 . Li Qiang couldn’t believe that he had travelled to the year AD 3008     1     a time capsule. Transported by Wang Ping’s parents’ company     2    (call) “Future Tours”, he started his first time trip. On his     3    (arrive), the totally new surroundings were difficult for him     4    (tolerate). His head ached for lack of fresh air     5     he also suffered from “time lag”.     6     (Lucky), his guide, Wang Ping, who was very understanding, gave him much help in time. He gave Li Qiang some green tablets and a mask,     7     helped Li overcome the problems.

After a short time of feeling unsettled and nervous, Li Qiang was back on     8    (he) feet again. Then he followed Wang Ping to collect a hovering carriage that     9     (drive) by computer. Soon he could fly as swiftly as Wang Ping. How amazing it was to fly above the ground! Then they arrived at a strange-looking house belonging to Wang Ping’s parents. Li Qiang was treated to a delicious dinner and had a wonderful bath there.     10     (exhaust), Li Qiang slid into bed and fell fast asleep.

Your class starts in 10 minutes, but you find yourself     1     (stick) in traffic. Don’t panic. With just a press of a button, your car will lift off the ground and fly to school. What’s your     2     (impress)? It seems like science fiction, but it isn’t. Engineers have taken     3     the research of flying cars, and they have already found     4     (solve) to many of the big challenges. They predict that we’ll all be using these     5     (amaze) vehicles one day. According to Car Trends Magazine, one model,     6     is part car and part plane, is going to be on the market in the not-so-distant future. It will look like a regular car when it’s on the road, but its wings will unfold when the driver     7     (decide) to take to the sky. And     8     (operate) by a computer, all controls will be automatic (自动的). Imagine this: You’ll be doing your homework while your car is getting you to school     9     (safe). And what does this future dream car cost? Well, at first it will be about a million dollars, but after a few years, you’ll be able to buy     10     for “only” $60,000. Don’t throw away your old driver’s license just yet!

6 . Cloning has always been with us and is here to stay. It is a way of making     1     exact copy of another animal or plant. Cloning plants is straightforward while cloning animals is very complicated. The process of cloning is a difficult task     2    (undertake) Many attempts to clone mammals failed. But finally the determination and patience of the scientists paid     3     in 1996 with a breakthrough-the cloning of Dolly the sheep.

At first the fact     4     she seemed to develop normally was very encouraging. Then came the     5    (disturb) news that Dolly had become seriously ill, which made cloning scientists cast down. Meanwhile, Dolly’s appearance raised a storm of     6    (object) and had a great impact on the media and public imagination.     7    (apparent) it became controversial. Although at present human egg cells and embryos     8    (need)for cloning research are hard to obtain, newspapers wrote of evil leaders     9    (hope) to clone themselves to attain their ambitions. Religious leaders also raised moral questions. Some countries reformed their legal systems and     10    (forbid) research into human cloning, but others like China and the UK, continued to accumulate evidence of the abundant medical aid that cloning could provide.

7 . A company    1    (name) “future tours” transported Li Qiang and his friend safely into the future in a time capsule. They climbed in through the round opening    2     a few minutes later the journey was completed. They were still on the earth but 1,000 years in the future.

Confused by the new    3    (surround), he was hit by the lack of fresh air. He chose a hovering carriage driven by computer and    4    (begin) to move    5    (swift). There were    6     many carriages that he lost sight of Wang Ping. He    7    (sweep) up into the center of them. At last Li Qiang caught sight of them. Arriving at home, he was surprised    8    (see) tree leaves around the house and provided the house    9     much-needed oxygen. After a good dinner, Li Qiang felt    10    (exhaust), so he slid into the bed and fell fast asleep.

Some day, our world may     1     (fill) with driverless cars. But.    2     will we communicate with them if there’s nobody in the driver’s seat?

At present, drivers can make gestures like    3     (nod) when they let us cross the street.    4     self-driving cars don’t have this ability.

The US car maker Ford and its partner Virginia Tech     5     (try) to solve this problem. The team is testing a method     6     uses light signals. For example, a slow-blinking tight shows the car is coming to       7     stop, and a rapidly flashing light     tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up.

    8     (test) the method on real roads, the team has designed a special suit that looks like a car scat. When a driver wears it, it appears as if the car were driverless.

The team has     9     (successful) collected more than 1,500 hours of data, which has recorded how people interacted with a “driverless” car. Ford says it plans to share the data     10     11 other car makers, which should lead to a signaling system that will be used in every driverless car.

Experts have started working on    1     unbelievable project to make a robot made by NASA act like a human.

    2    (name) Valkyrie, the robot looks like a woman and may be used to explorer Mars one day. It       3     (invent) by NASA scientists to compete in the DARPA Robotics Challenges(DRC). It is 1.9 meters tall and    4     (weight) 125 kilograms. It comes with a series    5     cameras, sonar, and other sensors spread across its body to help it move around.

Valkyrie is powered by a battery on its back, which can keep it     6     (operate) for an hour. It can walk on    7       (it) own, pick up objects and control many objects and tools,    8    is part of the requirements for the DARPA challenge.

The machine can walk on two legs and perform basic    9     (move) at present. However, the team from Scotland’s Edinburgh University wants to give it       10     (many) skills. It is hoped that the new and improved robot will work along with astronauts in space.

10 . I have to remind myself    1    (constant) that I am taking up this prize and I’m really in the year of AD 3008.

I suffered from “time lag” that I kept getting flashbacks from previous time period.We climbed in a capsule through a small    2    (open).It was very comfortable.A few minutes later,the journey was completed and we had arrived.At first,the    3    (surround) were hard to tolerate.Because of the lack of fresh air,I got a headache.So I put    4    a mask.Then I followed Wang Ping to collect a hovering carriage driven by computer.These carriages float above the ground and by    5    (press) down in the seat,we can move swiftly.Wang Ping showed me    6    to use it,but I lost sight of him when we reached a place where many carriages flew by    7    all directions.Later we arrived at a strange-looking house    8    had a green wall made of trees.A table and some chairs could rise from under the floor by flashing a switch on a computer screen.I    9    (exhaust) that night and fell    10    (sleep) quickly.
