4 . A rocket problem that forces astronauts to evacuate (撤退) may appear to be a plot straight out of a Hollywood movie. However, that is exactly what happened to Russian astronaut Alexey Ovchinin and American astronaut Nick Hague.     1    

The event happened shortly after the Soyuz rocket and its Soyuz MS-to space capsule (联盟号太空舱) carrying the astronauts took off from Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan.     2    

The takeoff went off smoothly, but just 119 seconds later, officials from Russia’s space agency informed NASA the booster (助推器) had failed to separate from the capsule.     3     Instead, they were ordered to evacuate by separating the capsule and returning to Earth in what is known as a ballistic descent mode (弹道下降模式). The sharp drop is similar to free-falling from the skies and subjects astronauts to high levels of g-force.

    4     They appeared to be in excellent condition when they crash-landed about 20 kilometers east of Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan, just 34 minutes after they stopped the task. Upon arrival, they were quickly found by the rescue team from Baikonur Cosmodrome and taken to the hospital for a quick check-up to ensure they had not suffered any injuries during their rough ride back to Earth.

It will take a few weeks for experts to determine what caused the problem of the usually reliable Soyuz rocket.     5     Hague, who was on his way to the space station for the first time later joked, “I imagined that my first trip to outer space was going to be a memorable one. I didn’t expect it to be quite this memorable.”

A．To their sadness, this event became a nightmare for their future space journey.

B．The two scientists were on their way to carry out a six-month task at the International Space Station.

C．Surprisingly, the harrowing event has not stopped Hague’s and Ovchinin’s wish to go to space.

D．Thus, the astronauts didn’t head to the International Space Station.

E．And luckily, they became the main characters of the movie about space exploration.

F．Fortunately, the “movie” had a happy ending with both scientists returning to Earth safely.

G．Fortunately, Hgue and Ovchinin had been well-trained for such emergencies.

The Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) fire

It feels as though the very heart of France and the soul of Europe have been broken. The fire of Notre Dame in Paris     1     Monday evening was an act of blind and terrible destruction,     2     (cause) great emotional pains to us all. We all share France’s terrible loss.

The fire struck     3     (quick) and uncontrollably. It gathered force with huge power. Much of the roof and the central building caught fire. After an hour or so, the Paris firefighters were able     4     (get) part of the fire under some degree of control and to protect other     5     (part) of the building that may survive. As night     6     (fall), the great west towers still stood against the sky, proud but hurt.

The Notre Dame is the symbol of the French capital and of France itself. It     7     (be) in its place since the 12th century. It is world famous not simply as a Parisian building but through the     8     (write) of Victor Hugo,     9     made the building itself come alive in his novel Hunchback of Notre Dame.

We believe the Dame will rise again in time. This terrible fire is not an event that should     10     (ignore) or quickly forgotten. We stand with France in its hour of heartbreak. We will never, ever, turn away.

6 . It was reported last week that developers could take photos from Apple mobile and Google Android devices without the phone owners knowing that the pictures were being taken. In Apple’s case, developers can also obtain the location information for each photo.

Senator(参议员) Charles Schumer said in a telephone interview that his office had spoken with officials at both Apple and Google on Monday. “We asked them if they could find a way on their own to prevent Apple from having access to private(私人的) information,” Mr. Schumer said. “They were friendly and open to the idea that this ought to be changed.”

On Sunday, Mr. Schumer said that he planned to send a letter to the Federal Trade Commission asking the agency to investigate Apple and Google after the privacy concerns came to light. Claudia Bourne Farrell, an F.T.C. spokeswoman, said the agency had received the letter but she could not comment further.

“It worries people to think that one’s personal photos, address book, and who knows what else can be obtained and even posted online without permission,” Mr. Schumer wrote in his letter to the F.T.C. “If the technology exists to open the door to this kind of privacy invasion（侵犯）, then surely technology exists to close it, and that’s exactly what must happen.”

Mr. Schumer said if Apple and Google could not come to an agreement to fix the problem, then he would be forced to take the issue further.

He said other companies had been willing to work with his office to deal with problems. “I’m optimistic that we can get this changed without any regulation,” he said. “If it’s not changed, then we’ll turn to the F.T.C., and if that doesn’t work then we’ll consider law ways.”

The F.T.C. has warned companies to try to be more vigilant(警醒的) in their efforts to protect consumers when it comes to privacy.

1. The senators spoke with officials at both Apple and Google___________.

A．to stop them from developing the technology of taking photos

A．causes privacy invasion to happen frequently

B．causes people to worry about the safety of their personal information

C．can be used if permitted

D．causes personal information to be posted online without permission

3. If the privacy concerns can’t be solved with the help of the F.T.C.,___________.

A．The senators will turn to law ways

B．The companies will be closed

C．The companies will be fined

7 . 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

Alexis, 17, sat quietly in the passenger seat of her dad’s car. She let her eyes lazily scan the landscape for wildlife. Then a deer came into view about 200 yards in front of them. “ Dad, there’s a deer there!”   Alexis said, rolling down the window for a better look. It was a male deer with sharp antlers （鹿角） on each side of its head.

As the car moved closer, Alexis saw that the deer’s head was bent toward the ground. Then she heard a scream and saw an arm fly up near the deer’s head. Alexis realized the deer was attacking a woman. Sue, a 44-year-olcI mother, had been out for her morning run. The deer followed her and edged （缓慢移动） closer. “ I knew I was in trouble,”   says Sue. She went to pick up a stick for self-defense, and the deer attacked her. It lifted her with its antlers and threw her into the air. Sue felt blood flow down her leg. Within seconds, the deer had pushed her off the road.

When Alexis and her father pulled up, the deer was throwing Sue like a doll. Alexis looked into the woman’s terrified eyes, and before her father had even stopped the car, the teenager jumped quickly out of the car and ran toward the deer. She was kicking and hitting it to get its attention. Then Michael, her father, who had followed his daughter, pushed the deer away from the woman.

Without Hesitation

On a bright Friday afternoon in spring, Sumeja Tulic had every reason to enjoy walking the streets of New York, a city she     1    （move) to nine months earlier from London to attend journalism school. “When the weather is good, it’s very hard to find a reason     2     (be) dissatisfied with the city “ she said.

At the City Hall station, she settled onto a bench. It was just after 2 p.m. Only a few people were at the station .

Then Tulic saw the man at the pillar collapsing forward onto the tracks.

The man who had fallen was not moving. Two more men jumped down to help.

“I don’t know     4     these men got the quickness,” Tulic said. “The man fell was about six foot tall. He was kind of     5     (jam) in the tracks. It was frightening to know that the train was coming.”

Then the rescuers     6     (rescue) by helping hands.     7     they were all clear, the train pulled in. “People getting off the train walked around this unconscious man,” Peterson said.

The ambulance arrived, and the man was taken to a local hospital     9     serious but non-life-threatening injuries, officials said.

“That is the     10     (great) thing,” Tulic said. “The infrastructure （基础建设） in this city of millions is the people themselves providing, being there for others. Without even knowing the person, who he is. It was beautiful to see.”
