What's life like on a deserted island? Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona decided to find out.

The senator and his sons, 15?year?old Tanner and 13?year?old Dallin, traveled 5,200 miles from Phoenix, Arizona to the island of Biggarenn. They didn't carry any food or water.

The island is part of the Marshall Islands. It offered no basic supplies, so the Flakes had to catch and cook their own food and purify their water. Their diet was made up of coconuts, crabs and fish. They caught the crab and fish themselves and cooked the food over an open fire started with a magnifying glass (放大镜)．

The Flakes brought along a lobster trap (龙虾夹) in the hope of having some delicious treats, but lost it within the first few hours after it was attacked by a shark. They also carried two pumps to remove salt from ocean water. It took them hours each night to pump for just a few gallons of fresh water.

One of the most memorable moments of the trip, the father said, was when he and his 15?year?old son were almost caught by sharks after spearing (用叉叉起) a fish in the ocean.

Still, it was quite an enjoyable holiday for them. “For a dad it was a wonderful thing. No video games around, no television, no disturbance, no texting，” Flake recalled.

Washington: NASA has announced evidence that Jupiter's largest moon, Ganymede, has a saltwater ocean under its icy surface. The ocean seems to have more water than all the water on Earth's surface, according to new Hubble observations.

New Hubble observations of Ganymede's magnetic field strongly suggest that the moon, which is the largest in our whole solar system, is home to a subsurface ocean.

Scientists estimate that the oceanis 95 kilometres thick, which is about 10 times deeper than Earth's oceans. But unlike our salty waters, Ganymede's ocean is buried under 150 kilometres of ice.

While scientists have speculated (推测) since the 1970s about the presence of an ocean on Ganymede — the largest moon in our solar system — until now the only observational evidence came from a brief flyby by the Galileo spacecraft, which didn't observe the moon long enough to confirm a liquid ocean.

This discovery marks an important milestone, highlighting what only Hubble can accomplish. In its 25 years in orbit, Hubble has made many scientific discoveries in our own solar system. A deep ocean under the icy surface of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth.

Scientists_have_already_confirmed_the_existence_of_an_ocean_on_Europa,_another moon orbiting Jupiter, and NASA has announced plans to send an unmanned mission there searching for the life that might come with liquid water.

Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth, but because of its impressive gravitational analyses it can be used to study the inside of far distant planets. Using these same principles, scientists could theoretically detect oceans on distant exoplanets as well.

1.What can we learn about Ganymede from the passage?

A．It is a planet with the largest moon in our whole solar system.

B．Its ocean adds to people's excitement about life beyond Earth.

C．It will be used by NASA as a base for the Hubble telescope.

D．Its liquid ocean was first proved by the Galileo spacecraft.

2.Which of the following best describes the writer's attitude towards Hubble?

A．Cautious. B．Doubtful.

C．Negative. D．Favourable.

3.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 6 mean?

A．An underground ocean has been found in Europa.

B．The presence of an underground ocean in Europa is not possible.

C．It is now certain that there is an ocean on Europa.

D．No evidence has shown the existence of an ocean on Europa.

4.What type of writing does this passage belong to?

A．A term essay.

B．A news report.

C．An experiment report.

D．An exploration review.

An Impressive English Lesson

On Wednesday of last Art Week, we_______________________________________.

By Liming

At no time in history has there been such a mass movement of people from the countryside to the city as is happening now. By the year 2030, it’s estimated that more than two thirds of the world’s population will be living in cities, twice as many as today. This means that the problems faced by cities today—overcrowding, poor housing, unemployment, poverty and lack of food and water—will be twice as bad unless we find solutions soon.

Another serious issue is how to provide good transportation for their citizens. Many of the world’s major cities are already struggling with out-of-date transport infrastructures(基本设施).How can they deal with the additional demands?

London is a good example. Its enlargement was made possible by the invention of the steam engine, which powered the world’s first underground railway. But its transport system are now hopelessly out-of-date and need urgent modernization. London’s future success depends very much on developing better public transport.

Over a million people travel into central London every day from outside the city. They together with the people who live in London, want a public transport system that is efficient, safe and environmentally friendly. What they often get, however, falls far short of that ideal. Passengers complain about cost and pollution, while businesses worry about the problems their staff have in getting to work on time. Yes, the proportion of London households that own a car grew from just over ten percent in the early 1950s to over sixty percent today.

As the city has become increasingly crowded and polluted, there has been a growing realization that action must be taken soon.

1.It is believed that____.

A. overpopulation causes the problem in cities

B. two thirds of the world’s population are living in cities today

C. it isn’t difficult to solve the problem faced by cities today

D. with fewer people we would be free from problems

2.The underlined word “they” in the fourth paragraph refers to _______.

A. the citizens in the city of London

B.those who come to London from other places

C. passengers who make complaints about the cost

D. businesses who are anxious about their staff getting to work late

3.The underlined words “environmentally friendly” is closest in meaning to ________.

A. pleasant and nonpolluting B. cheap and punctual

C. quick and straight D. fair and convenient

4. The following paragraph of this text would most probably deal with___

A. train and air travel

B. traffic jams in London

C. possible solution to London’s transportation problems

D. car ownership that continues to grow.
