5 . On September 15th , the night sky in Cape Canaveral , Florida, US ,lit up and the rumble (隆隆声) of engines of a 70-meter-tall Falcon 9 rocket set off car alarms. In that rocket was a group of four civilians in a Space X Crew Dragon spacecraft prepared to make history. This is the first mission to space performed entirely by tourists, or those not professionally trained as astronauts. For three days, the four civilians aboard the spacecraft traveled in orbit around the earth as part of the mission named Inspiration 4. The name of the mission itself is fitting.
Late last year, the mission leader Jared Isaacman, a billionaire, announced that he would like to fund a spaceflight that differed from other billionaire space journeys. His would be part of an effort to raise funds for St. Jude Children’s Hospital. “He knew he would be using those seats to carry out his mission objective of inspiring humanity while raising money for children’s cancer research.” Scientific American wrote. In addition to Issacman, the crew included 29-year-old Hayley Arceneux, a St. Jude physician assistant; Sian Procotor, 51, a geologist; and Chris Sembroski, a 42-year-old lifelong space fan, CNN reported.
This particular Dragon spacecraft did not visit the International Space Station, but it did reach 590 kilometers above the earth. While there is certainly a long way to go before Space X achieves its goal of carrying common people to Mars at an accessible price, this mission is definitely making its mark on space travel-all for a good cause. According to CNN, at a press briefing on September 14th, Sembroski told reporters that joining the Inspiration 4 mission felt like “We’re writing the rules! We’re breaking a couple of them that NASA used to demand! We get to kind of do things our own way!”

6 . Tianwen I is China’s first Mars probe(火星探测器). Where does the name come from? Do you still remember Qu Yuan, a famous poet in ancient China? He loved his motherland very much. His long poem “Heavenly Questions(天问)” expresses the continual hard work and the great spirit of the Chinese nation to science. That is why Tianwen I was officially named, which is quite cultural and beautiful.
On July 14, 2020. Tianwen I arrived at the Wenchang Space Launch Site(发射站)in Hainan Province. The space probe Tianwen I based off(发射升空)at 12:41 p.m. on July 23, 2020, carrying a Long March 5 carrier rocket(长征5号运载火箭). It took Tianwen I about seven months to travel to Mars.
The China’s Mars rover(火星车), Zhurong moved from is landing platform(平台)onto the surface of the Red Planet at 10:40 a.m. on May 15th, 2021, starting is exploration(探险旅程)around the landing site.
The 240-kilogram robot was sent into the sky to survey Mars’ landforms, geography situation, and something about water, ice, environment and other physical fields.
Before Tianwen I, no country had ever tried to send an orbiter(运行器), a lander and a rover in one single expedition(考察)to Mars.

8 . The COVID-19 has led to a great demand for bikes and biking. Bikes stores are struggling hard to keep up with the demand. In the United States, bike sales have seen their jump since the 1970s. Sales of adult bikes in April of 2020 were three times as high as last year. The situation is similar in Asia and Europe. Around 90% of the bikes sold in the US are made in China. But because of the COVID-19, even the normal supply of bicycles wasn’t being created. That demand began to go up in mid-March, as people began looking for ways of getting around that didn’t involve crowded public transportation. Because biking happens in the open air, and the chance of catching the disease while riding is very low.
Biking has also grown more popular because it is one of the few forms of exercise allowed in many lockdowns. With gyms and fitness shut down, biking fills a need for many active people. Families appreciate biking, too. With school closed and kids unable to hang out with their friends, biking is a welcome activity. Bikes are also practical. Many cities are seeing this as an opportunity to make their streets safer and greener. Cities around the world are adding mils and miles of bike lanes to their streets to encourage biking. New York says it will close off up to 160 kilometers of roads so they can be used by bikers and walkers. Paris has set up over 650 kilometers of new bike lanes. The United Kingdom plans to double its number of bike lanes. In Milan, Italy, 35 kilometers of roads have been metamorphosed.
Though many of these bike lane additions are temporary, and some people assume these additions seem to destroy the overall beauty of cities, if changes in biking habits become permanent because of additions, they could seriously cut down car traffic and help make cities a lot greener.
1. What can we conclude about the present bike situation?| A．It is more expensive. | B．It is safer than a car. |
| C．It is in short supply. | D．It is all made in China. |
| A．Repaired. | B．Changed. | C．Protected. | D．Designed. |
| A．Negative. | B．Doubtful. | C．Indifferent. | D．Positive. |
| A．Increasing Interest in Biking | B．Ride Bikes, Clean the Earth |
| C．More Bikes, Fewer Traffic Jam | D．A Great drop for Bike Exercise |
