will send two robots (机器人) to separate places of Mars to seek out past or present signs of water. It is
all exciting idea to send two robots driving over very different places of Mars at the same time, to be able
to see what is on the other side of the hill.
Last month, NASA announced it was sending one robot to Mars, but after two weeks, it decided there
was enough money for two.
The robots will be sent up within two weeks of each other in May and June of 2003 from Kennedy
Space Center. If all goes well, the two spacecraft (宇宙飞船) will touch down on Mars,after a
seven-and-a-half-month space flight,on January 2 and 2O, 2OO4 The robots, each weighing 150 kilograms,
can cover 100 meters per day. They are designed to be able to examine the mineral content of the soil, and
their special camera will take pictures of the lands and hills Although they will be under control from Earth,
the robot, are able to move more freely compared to those sent up before them.
The actual landing points have not been determined yet, but the scientists say it will be in areas where
they hope to find water.
B. see if robots can find minerals there
C. test how fast robots can drive there
D. prove that robots can work on Mars
B. 7.5 months.
C. 2 months.
D. 2 weeks.

and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26 year-old computer technician will spend the
extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food.
"Organic produce is always better," Gold said,"The food is free of pesticides (农药), and you are
generally supporting family farms instend of large farms. And more often than not it is locally(本地)
grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty." Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the
organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic
food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay
a higher price for organic produce? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can
generally give clear reasons for their preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete.
For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products. And about three quarters of
organic food in Britain is not local but imported (进口) to meet growing demand ."The demand for organic
food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market," said Sue Flock, a
specialist in this line of business.

D. Good qualities of organic food
dump millions of pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year. By 2050, emissions (排放)
from planes are expected to become one of the largest contributors to global warming.
That"s why researchers at MIT are designing a completely new type of airplane for NASA that will
enable greener airplanes to take flight before 2050.
The 180-passenger D"double bubble" series was designed to replace the Boeing 737 class aircraft, the
most popular jetliner in the world right now. The design is called a "double bubble" because it uses two
partial cylinders (气缸) placed side by side. Those two cylinders create a wider structure that looks like two
soap bubbles joined together.
In today"s commercial airplanes, air flows directly into the engines located on the plane"s wings. That
high-speed air flow drags on the plane, and requires more fuel to overcome the design inefficiency.
MIT"s design changes all that. By moving the engines to the plane"s tail, they take in slower moving air
present in the wake of the fuselage (机舱). Less drag means less fuel is needed to get the plane the same
distance.
Burning less fuel can help passengers" wallet as well as the environment. The environmental implications
of saving energy are as just as clear: the fewer emissions that planes spout into the atmosphere, the healthier
our planet.
But for passengers, we still have a couple decades to wait before any of these planes make it onto the
runway. NASA"s goal is to make sure the planes that MIT has designed can take off by 2035.
B. it will hold more passengers
C. it is designed to save fuel
D. it needs no runways to take off
B. Airplanes are very noisy for the environment
C. MIT"s new design will save passengers" money
D. It"s expected that NASA"s goal will be realize by the year 2035.
B. Researchers are designing greener aircraft
C. Passengers will enjoy lower prices
D. Airlines attract passengers with new planes
B. Science fiction
C. Travel diary
D. Business magazine
the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists.
Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon. The next day, this news appeared on page
two of the town"s newspaper. The Beldon Post:
FIRE AT SEABREEZE
Late last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom. The
hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all our visitors: "Please don"t smoke
cigarettes in bed." This was Beldon"s first hotel fire for five years.
The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one:
ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRE
Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the
Seabreeze Hotel. An angry holiday-maker said, "An electric lamp probably started the fire. The bedroom lamps
are very old at some of these hotels. When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp." We
are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield.
What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident. There was a fire at
the Seabreeze Hotel last August: that is one fact. Do we know anything else? Yes, we know that firemen went
to the hotel.
Now what do you think of the rest of the "news"?

C. c and e

B. hotels in Beldon don"t often catch fire
C. this was the second fire at the Seabreeze Hotel

B. the bedroom lights made funny noise when the fire took place
C. the firemen failed to save clothing, bedclothes and other things
D. such accidents never happened in Canfield for the past 5 years
