21、 Star scientists have taken the first ever picture of a black hole, which is from a far away galaxy (银河系). It is 40 billion km across-three million times the size of the Earth-and has been described by scientists as "a monster".
The black hole is 500 million trillion km away and was photographed by a network of eight telescopes (望远镜) across the world.
Details have come out today in Astrophysical Journal Letters. Prof Heino Falcke, says "It is one of the heaviest black holes that we think there is. It is a real monster."
The picture shows a quite bright "ring of fire", as Prof Falcke describes it. The bright halo is caused by superheated gas fling into the hole. The light is brighter than all the billions of other stars in the galaxy-which is why it can be seen so far away from Earth.

23、When I was looking for a Christmas present for my daughter in a toy store, a nicely dressed little girl, with some money in her little hand, was looking at some beautiful dolls. When she saw a doll she liked, she would ask her father if she had enough money. He usually said yes.
At the same time, a boy, with old and small clothes, was looking at some video games. He, too, had money in his hand, but it looked no more than five dollars. Each time he picked up one of the video games and looked at his father, he shook his head.
The little girl had chosen her doll, a very beautiful one. However, she noticed the boy and his father. She saw the boy give up a video game with disappointment (失望) and walk to another corner of the store.

24、
Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job. Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can’t eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump(垃圾堆).Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage (排污) system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets(厕所), bathtubs and other places.
To keep mice(老鼠) and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal(金属). The metal can be reused and recycled. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles(堆) where they slowly change into something called humus, which looks like black earth. It is rich with the kinds of things that feed plants and help them grow.
【1】The passage is mostly about _____________.

25、 Everyone likes to have fun, but not everyone has much money to spend. Here are some free or cheap ways to enjoy yourself.
Get outside
Going outside in good weather can be a lot of fun, especially if you go with a friend. H【1】 or cycle on a nearby path or in a park. If you live in a city, you can go window shopping, or you can explore an old part of town and admire (欣赏) the buildings.
Try a hobby
While you’re out and about, take pictures of things you find. Planning and taking pictures can make you see the beauty all around you. And you’ll end up with interesting photos. Photographic equipment can be expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. You p【2】 already own a camera or a cellphone that can take pictures. Other creative hobbies can also be done with basic (基本) m【3】. Drawing and writing require nothing more than a pencil and paper.
Find an event
Libraries often hold free public events. Stop by one to find out what’s going on. And while you’re there, borrow a book or movie for free. Museums and universities a【4】 hold free events.
If you can’t find a free event, you can volunteer at an event that requires tickets. People who organize concerts and plays need help. You could set up or take down chairs or greet visitors. Sometimes they reward (奖励) volunteers with free tickets.
Meet a friend
Relationships are often the best thing in life. Whatever you do, find someone to share it with. Invite a friend for a walk, an event or a time working on your hobby. Hosting (招待) doesn’t have to be difficult. If your friend comes in the afternoon, you don’t have to serve a meal. I【5】, you can sit and talk, play board games or card games or watch a movie.
You don’t need money to have a fun day.
