What would life be like aboard（在……上）a spaceship? Perhaps the strangest and most interesting thing about living in space is that people are weightless because there is no gravity（重力）. This condition, which is called zero gravity, makes it possible for astronauts to fly through the spaceship simply by pushing off from a wall or a chair. It’s almost like swimming underwater, except that there is no up or down. Imagine, then, taking a shower when water moves in the air instead of running down on you. Tie yourself to a wall so that you don’t fly away while taking a sleep. You couldn’t brush your teeth in the usual way. The following may help you understand how these and other everyday activities can be difficult tasks for people who travel in space.
●Showers
Taking a shower aboard a spaceship isn’t like taking one at home. On a spaceship, you must store up water. And preparing the equipment for showers takes a long time. It is also not a simple activity. On Russian spaceships, an astronaut gets in an elastic（彈性的） cylinder（汽缸） with caps at both ends. Rubber slippers, fixed to the floor, keep the astronaut from flying upward. The astronaut puts a soft pipe into his or her mouth in order to breathe. Then the astronaut presses his or her nose to keep water out, because water doesn’t drop downward in space. When the water is turned on, it comes out of holes at the top and bottom of the cylinder. Astronauts use a soap-filled cloth to wash and then a plain cloth to clean.
●Teeth cleaning
Astronauts use electric toothbrushes. They are encouraged to massage their gums（按摩牙齦）with a special cloth. A special chewing gum, used after every meal, also helps them keep their teeth clean.
●Sleep
When you’re really tired, it feels wonderful to lie down on a bed and sleep. In space, however, there is no “down”. An astronaut sleeps in a standing position in a sleeping bag fixed to the wall of a sleeping place. In the space station, elastic bands keep the sleeper in place and give the feeling of lying flatly on a bed. These bands press the sleeper back in the same way that gravity presses down.
51. Why do the everyday activities become difficult in space?
A. Because astronauts can fly away.
B. Because people are weightless.
C. Because there is no up or down.
D. Because water moves in the air.
52. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in the second paragraph?
A. Keeping the water out.
B. Storing up water in space.
C. Fixing cylinders to the floor.
D. Preparing shower equipment.
53. What does the underlined word “bands” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Flat things fixing sleepers.
B. Series of space numbers.
C. Narrow areas with light.
D. Groups of musicians.
54. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. Zero Gravity B. Strange Space
C. Brave Spacemen D. Living in Space
C
Think of all the things you throw away: juice bottles, soda cans, candy covers. It adds up. How much rubbish do you produce? Americans throw away about 1 ton of rubbish per person every year. That’s 2,000 pounds (907 kilograms) of rubbish! Most of this rubbish gets covered in big holes in the ground called landfills（垃圾掩埋）.
A lot of this rubbish can be recycled, or turned back into something useful. The main things we recycle today are made from metal, paper or glass.
People recycle for many reasons. One of the main reasons is to protect resources. Making new cans out of old ones means less aluminum（鋁）is needed for new cans.
The leads to a second reason people recycle: It saves energy. Recycling old aluminum cans takes much less energy than making new aluminum. To make new aluminum, you need to mine metal ore（礦石）from the ground, remove it, and refine it into a finished metal.
Recycling also protects valuable land. By recycling, we produce less rubbish. That means fewer landfills are needed for dropping our rubbish.
Because metals are somewhat costly to make, they are the world’s most recycled materials. About two―thirds of all steel（鋼）is recycled.
Almost all drink cans are made of aluminum. Americans recycle about one―third of their used aluminum cans. Empty cans are sent to special factories. There, they are cleaned, melted, and made into new pieces of aluminum.
Americans use lots of paper―mostly in the form of newspapers, magazines, and cardboard boxes. In fact, paper takes up more space in landfills than any other material.
Old paper can be cut and made into new paper. Americans recycle a little more than one-third of their paper rubbish. New paper is made from trees. Each ton of recycled paper saves about 17 trees!
Glass can be recycled, too. Americans recycle less than one―quarter of the glass they use. Perhaps that is because recyclers must take more work to recycle glass. First, only bottle glass can be melted and made into new glass. Second, different colors of glass must be melted separately. This means bottles must be separated by color before they can be recycled.
55. The passage is mainly about _________________________.
A. reasons of recycling
B. advantages of recycling
C. difficulties of recycling
D. different kinds of recycling
56. Which of the following is not the reason for people to recycle?
A. To protect resources B. To save energy
C. To protect land D. To save lives
57. Which of the following is the most difficult to recycle?
A. Metal B. Glass C. Paper D. Land
58. What should be the writer’s feeling to recycling according to the passage?
A. He supports it and calls for it
B. He wants to help but can do little
C. He feels disappointed and gives up
D. He thinks it’s useful but difficult

三. 閱讀與表達（共10分，每小題2分）
閱讀短文，根據其內容回答問題。
Music is part of every culture on Earth. Many people feel that music makes life worth living. We can make music ourselves if we play an instrument（樂器）or sing. We can hear music on CDs or tapes, on radio or television and even on the Internet. Music gives up pleasure. It can cheer us up, or excite us.
Music can make us feel happy, sad, excited or calm―all kinds of feelings. But what is it? Some people describe it as an artful form of sounds across time. These sounds might be loud or soft, high or low, quick and short, or slow and long. The sounds need to keep on for some time in some kinds of forms to become music.
Music, like language, is a special human form of communication. Also like language, there are many different kinds. In North America, people listen to jazz, rock, classical, folk, country, and many other kinds of music. Each kind of music has its own rules and “speaks” to us in its own way.
What we think of music depends on where we live. What Americans are used to listening to might sound strange to someone from another culture. It might not even sound like music. And also you can find that every country has its own typical instruments to show their traditional music.
Today, modern communications（通訊系統）make it possible for us to listen to music from all over the world. In this way music from one part of the world could influence（影響）music from another part.
Music goes along with many of our activities. We dance to music. We sing songs at school. Many of us exercise to music. We hear music in cars and stores. Music comes with many important moments.
Music pleases us. We listen to slow music, spiritual music, pop music, rock music, and opera. We have favorite performers. We hear music as the background in movies. Perhaps we go to the theater to see a musical movie―play with music, singing, and often with dancing.
Music is part of our lives.
11. Can we hear music on the Internet?
_______________________________________________________________________________
12. What kinds of feelings can music give us?
_______________________________________________________________________________
13. Why can music all over the world influence each other today?
_______________________________________________________________________________
14. What are the similarities（相似點）between music and language?
_______________________________________________________________________________
15. What is the passage mainly about?
_______________________________________________________________________________
