21、 We are often attracted by fancy gadgets （小玩意) or interesting new hobbies, and quickly become addicted to them. But how long can that passion continue?
Yu Shibo became interested in aerial filming (航拍) when he first saw how a drone (无人机) was operated during a school event in 2016. Although learning aerial filming was harder than he thought, he never gave up.
This year, the 17 - year-old, from Qingdao Menaul School, Shandong, posted a video on his WeChat Channel, which received a few hundred likes. The four - minute video shows the boy's hometown - Qingdao with a drone: snowy mountain tops, skyscrapers in the clouds and the sunset over the ocean. Yu tried to show the beauty and romance of his hometown.
The final video took him more than two years until he felt satisfied with it. " Many places in the video Were shot many times because an unforgettable scene needs timing and enough luck, " Yu said. Most of the time, the weather didn't contribute to getting a perfect view. Aerial filming looks better with fog, sunrises and sunsets.
To catch the perfect time, Yu got used to getting up very early or staying up late. Yu recalled the days he climbed the mountain in snow and fell several times. When he filmed during winter, he didn't wear gloves - which nearly froze his fingers - in order to precisely control the drone. " But all the hardships are paid back when I get astonishing pictures. No pain, no gain. "
Some viewers commented that his shooting is professional and skillful. But in fact, Yu learned how to operate the drone and shoot all by himself. "There are a lot of materials accessible for a beginner, but the key point is to act and keep practicing, then you will have more sense about the shooting," said Yu.
【1】What inspired Yu to develop an interest in aerial filming?
A．His desire to develop a new hobby.
B．People's positive response to his video.
C．The sight of a drone during a school event.
D．His wish to share with people the beauty of Qingdao.
【2】Why did Yu have to get up very early or stay up late?
A．To edit video clips.
B．To avoid the crowds.
C．To practice aerial filming.
D．To get eye - catching pictures.
【3】What would Yu think is important to tell beginners who want to take good pictures?
A．Be ready to ask questions.
B．Try to practice as much as possible.
C．Improve your teamwork skills.
D．Make good use of all materials available.
22、The world's first luxury space hotel,Aurora Station,was announced Thursday at the Space 2.0 Summit in San Jose,California.Developed by US-based space technology start-up Orion Span,the space station will host six people at a time,including two crew members,for 12-day trips of space travel.It plans to welcome its first guests in 2022.
“Our goal is to make space accessible to all,"Frank Bunger,CEO and founder of Orion Span,said in a statement."Upon launch,Aurora Station goes into service immediately,bringing travelers into space quickly and at a lower price point than ever seen before."

Activities on board include taking part in research experiments such as growing food while in orbit,which guests can take home for a super-smug souvenir,and soaring over their hometown.Guests can have-live-video chats with their less-fortunate loved ones back home via high-speed wireless Internet access and,upon(return to Earth will be greeted with a specially arranged hero's welcome.While enjoying the thrills of zero gravity,the travelers will be able to float freely through the hotel,taking in views of the northern and southern aurora from the station's windows.

24、The Palm Islands are the largest artificial islands in the world and are under construction in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates. They are being developed as tourist, leisure, and residential resorts, and will increase the coastline of the country by 120 kilometres.
After four years of planning and careful consideration of the environmental issues, construction started in 2001. Dutch engineers with experience of reclaiming land from the sea were employed in the building of the first two islands. The site for all three islands is an area of the sea where the water is not very deep. Sand is taken from the seabed and sprayed into the construction site. Although the shallow water facilitates this process, the islands are still very exposed to the currents and tidal movements of the sea. Rocks are used to hold the sand in place resulting in a large crescent （月状的） structure. This acts as a breakwater and protects the islands from the sea.
The first two islands are in the shape of date palm trees and consist of a trunk and 17 frond, or leaves coming off the trunk. The first island, named Palm Jumeirah, has three five-star hotels in the trunk, and luxury homes in the leaves. It is astonishing that when these homes went on sale in 2004, they were all sold within three days.
The second palm, Jebel Ali, was started in 2002 and is designed to be an entertainment centre. Six marinas （小游艇船坞） are planned, with a water theme park, and homes built on stilts （桩柱） in the water.
The Palm Deira planned to be the largest of the three islands, with a length of 14 km and a width of 8.5 km, an area larger than the city of Paris. It will consist of residential properties, marinas, shopping malls, sports facilities, and clubs. These will be open to both residents and tourists.
More artificial islands, the World Islands, are now being constructed near the Palm Jumeirah. They consist of 300 private islands grouped into the shape of the continents of the world and will be used for estates, private homes, community islands, and resorts.
Unquestionably, these artificial islands are one of the wonders of the modern world. They will also maintain Dubai’s status as one of the leading tourist destinations in the region.
