21、On a clear night, you can look in the sky and see the moon and stars. You might even see the blinking light of a working satellite as it flies past, on its way around the earth. And, even though you can’t see it, you are also looking at the largest junkyard in the solar system.
Higher than the highest clouds but much closer than the moon, the junkyard stretches from the earth’s surface to 20,000 miles overhead. There are tens of millions of pieces of trash there. Some of the pieces are rocks and dust from passing comets, but most of them are manmade, from large satellites and rockets that fell apart after they stopped working. Together, all the space junk would weigh about 11 million pounds on Earth, or more than 3,000 cars. In the last 50 years, human beings have sent thousands of artificial satellites into space. When a satellite stops working, it usually falls back towards the earth and burns up in the atmosphere. Satellites are at high altitudes, however, fragments remain in earth’s orbit.
________ Nobu Okada, Chief Executive of Astroscale, a company working on ways to clean up space junk says hitting “even a small piece… has enough power to blow up other satellites.” To keep track of the junk, the scientists have to know two things: where the junk is now, and where it is going to be in the future. What can be done about the problem of space junk? The large pieces of junk can’t be brought back to earth because the technology is too expensive. If countries work together to control the amount of trash we send into space, we can keep the problem under control. In the future, perhaps we can even clean up the mess.
【1】According to the passage, the junkyard ________.
A.is higher than the highest clouds but much closer than the earth
B.stretches from the earth’s surface to two thousand miles in space
C.is hard to burn up because of the expensive technology
D.has a large number of pieces of trash from comets, satellites and rockets
【2】What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?
A.How is the junkyard in the solar system overhead.
B.What causes so much trash in the junkyard.
C.how many satellites human beings have sent into space.
D.How satellites fall back to the earth and burn up.
【3】Which of the following can be put in the “________”?
A.The junkyard is a serious problem for the future of space flight.
B.It is not easy to clean up the junkyard in the solar system.
C.The amount of trash is still under control for the scientists.
D.Scientists are developing the ways to bring the trash to the earth.
【4】What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To tell us where and how large the junkyard is in the solar system.
B.To tell us how satellites and rockets stop working and cause the trash in space.
C.To tell us the problem of the junk in space and the importance of controlling it.
D.To tell the scientists have known the ways to control the amount of the trash.
22、Most parents hope that their children can be happy and successful. But do you know the best way to encourage them to be so? The answer is to allow them to make their own decisions.
Unfortunately, popular culture has different ideas about children’s decision making. Most parents make decisions for their children – what they wear, what they eat and what movies they watch. In fact, it’s not good for children’s growing.
Parents should allow children to make decisions when they are very young. But this doesn’t mean children are allowed to do everything. For example, you shouldn’t take your children into a store and tell them they can have anything they want. They would be overwhelmad(不知所措的) by the choices (选择). But you can give them a choice among snacks. When children get older, “expand” the number of choices you give them. For example, allow them to decide the activities they want to take part in or when they go to bed.
The next step is to get your children to think before they act. Let them ask themselves several important questions. First, why do I want to do this? Second, what are my choices? Third, what are the results of the actions? After these questions, they are sure to have right decisions.
【1】The beat way to make children be happy and successful is to ______.
A. allow them to buy more books B. make them read more books
C. allow them to make their own decisions D. make them go to college
【2】The writer thinks ______.
A. parents should make decisions for children B. parents should teach children to make decisions
C. children could do what they want to do D. children could not make their decisions
【3】The underlined word “expand” in the passage means ______ in Chinese?
A. 扩大 B. 收回 C. 开放 D. 缩小
【4】Children should ask themselves ______ questions before making a decision.
A. two B. three C. four D. five
23、 There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every trip and took their wages.
On the last day of one trip, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, “If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship. But if he comes out before the sun appears, I shall get his wages.”
The sailors had heard about the captain’s cheating, so they didn’t believe in him. But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water and stayed in it although it was very cold. When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away.
“You are cheating,” the captain said to the sailor, “The fire's warming you.”
“But it's half a mile away,” said the sailor. “A fire is fire,” answered the captain.
“Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can't cook a chicken,” said the sailor.
“I can,” answered the captain.
“If you cook this chicken,” said the sailor, “I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can’t, you will give me your ship.”
The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, “Where's the fire?”
“There it is,” answered the sailors, “On the shore."
“‘A fire’s fire’, you said,” answered the sailor. “If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken.”
【1】The captain got the sailors' wages_______________.

D.some fishermen wanted to help the sailor with the fire
【4】What do you think of the sailor according to the story?
