         Astronauts on shorter shuttle missions(使命)often work very long days.  Tasks are scheduled so tightly that break times are often used to finish the day's work.  This type of schedule is far too demanding for
    long missions on the International  Space Station(ISS).  ISS crewmembers usually live in space for at
    least a quarter of a year. They work five days on and two days off to mimic the normal way they do things on Earth as much as possible . Weekends give the crew valuable.  Weekends give the crew valuable time
    to rest and do a few hours of  housework.  They can communicate with family and friends by email ,
    internet phone and through
    Private video conferees.
        While astronauts cannot go to a baseball game or a movie in orbit, there are many familiar active tics
    that they can still enjoy . Before a mission.  The family and friends of each ISS crewmember put together
    a collection of family photos, messages, videos and reading material for
    The astronauts to look at when they will be floating 370 kilometers above the Earth.  During their mission,
    the crew also receives care packages with CDs, books, magazines, photos and letters . And as from early 2010, the internet became available on the ISS , giving astronauts the chance to do some "web surfing (冲浪)"in  their personal time.  Besides relaxing with these more common entertainments, astronauts can
    simply enjoy the experience of living in space.
        Many astronauts say that one of the most relaxing things to do in space is to look out the window and
    stare at the universe and the Earth's vast land mass and oceans.

         If Confucius(孔子)were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big
    cake, there would be a lot of candles. He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.
        While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United
    States will give him a passing thought.  It's nothing personal.  Most Americans don't even remember the
    birthdays of their own national heroes.
        But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius.  In many ways he has become a
    bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
        In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western
    universities.  More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80
    countries.  These schools teach both Chinese language and culture.  The main courses of Chinese culture
    usually included Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学).  Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantages of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners
    philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese.So they will be
    ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States.Businessmen who hope
    to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.  
         So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well. 
         Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius
    and Chinese culture to the West.
         As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.
    1.  The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________.
    A. . provide some key facts about Confucius
    B. attract the readers' interest in the subject
    C. show great respect for the ancient thinker
    D. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations
    2. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students______.
    A.  have a great interest in studying Chinese
    B. take an active part in Chinese competitions
    C. try to get high scores in Chinese exams
    D. fight for a chance to learn Chinese
    3. What is the best title for the passage?
    A. Forgotten Wisdom in America
    B. Huge Fans of the Chinese Language
    C. Chinese Culture for Westerners
    D. Old Thinker with a Big Future
    4. The passage is likely to appear in ________.
    A. a biography
    B. a history paper
    C. a newspaper

         Inside the pleasingly fragrant cafe, So All May Eat(SAME) in downtown Denver ,the spirit of
    generosity(慷慨)is instantly noticeable :A donation box stands in place of a cash register. Customers
    here pay only what they can afford, no questions asked. A risky business plan, perhaps, but SAME Caf?
    has done one unchangeable thing in the Mile High City for six years: Open only at midday, the restaurant
    provides poor local can instead volunteer as waiters and waitresses, and dishwashers, or took after the

    often unhealthy meals they served there. "We wanted to offer quality food in a restaurant where everyone
    felt comfortable ,regardless of their circumstances," Birky says. SAME's special lunch menu changes daily and most food materials are natural and grown by local farmers. The cafe now averages 65 to 70
    customers (and eight volunteers) a day. And the spirit of generosity behind the project appears to be
    spreading. In early 2007,one volunteer who had cleared snow for his meals during the long winter said
    goodbye to the Birkys," He said he was going to New Orleans to help with the hurricane clear up," says
    Birky. 68.What can we learn about the soup kitchens the Birkys previously worked for?

    has many benefits.  It offers companionship, improves self-worth and promotes good health.  There are
    times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town, or changed our jobs or

         Thank you for the lovely day we have with you. It was so kind tor you to let us bring Anne's
    friend. Gina. Unfortunate, the only problem was the journey home. There had been a terrible
    accident on the highway and, for a result, there was a long line of traffic for at least six mile. In
    the end, we drove to a service station and waited there unless the road was clear. In the car park
    hereGina nearly got knocked over as car drove out far too quickly from behind a lorry. They
    finally dropped Gina off at her parents' and made our own way to home.
