The rockets take astronauts and man-made satellites into space. The satellites are used for communication, weather monitoring and research. But how do satellites stay up without Falling down?

There are two opposite forces acting on the satellite. One of them is the force of gravitation(地心引力), which tries to pull the satellite toward the earth. The other force is created by the rotation (旋转)of the satellite around the earth. This force tries to take the satellite away from the earth. With these two forces, the satellite goes round and round. The gravitational pull of the earth is like a rope which keeps the satellite from flying away.

Everything that goes up has to come down. It is only a matter of time before a satellite comes back to the earth. As time goes by, the satellite loses its speed, which makes the gravitational pull stronger than the force pulling it away. This makes the satellite crash (坠落)down to the earth.

1.The force that pulls the satellite towards the earth is created by ________.

A. the earth B. the satellite itself

C. the rotation of the satellite D. the rope

2.Why can't the satellites fly away?

A. Because of the force from the earth.

B. Because the satellite is too big.

C. Because of the force created by the rotation of the satellite around the earth.

D. Because people on earth have made ropes to tie the satellites tightly.

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. There are four forces acting on the satellite.

B. The force of gravitation makes the satellite go round and round.

Do you like go running? Some people think running is boring. But there are ways to make it more exciting – for example, “plogging”.

Plogging is a new exercise trend(趋势)from Sweden. The name comes from the words “pick up” and “jogging”. It means picking up trash(垃圾)while running.

Ploggers go outside with a pair of gloves and a trash bag. They stop to pick up trash as they run. Nobody likes to see trash while they’re doing exercise. This new trend brings environmental protection (环境保护) and healthy living together.

Mother Teresa once said, "Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person" However, a recent survey showed that 25% of Chinese never smiled or smiled less than five times a day. It also found that 2~6 of Chinese were willing to smile at strangers.

To make a change, forty students from Shanghai Normal University started a team of "Smiling Volunteers". Their first smiling task was-to smile at all the visitors in the Shanghai Film Art Centre and ask if they needed their help. Not all students found it easy to smile all the time. "When volunteers help other people, smiling is the best way to make them understand that volunteers are ready and sincere(诚挚的),”one team leader said.

A teacher in charge of(负责)the team thought the team's work was not all fun and games. "Most of our students will be teachers after they leave university. Smiling is necessary for good teachers. We hope they can learn how to smile at each other, she said. Everyone smiles in the same language. So it's not important whether you are a teacher or not. After all, sincere smiling and helping hearts are the most important. If today you don't start a day with a smile, it won't be too late to start practising for tomorrow. Remember "The world always looks brighter from behind a smile."

1.How many Chinese never smiled or smiled less than five times a day?

2.What will most of the students be after they leave Shanghai Normal University?

3.Do you think smiling is necessary in your life? Why or why not?
