     Jiuquan, Gansu Sept. 25 (Xinhua)-China launched its third manned spacecraft on Thursday with three
astronauts on board to attempt the country's first-ever space walk.
     The spaceship Shenzhou-7 blasted off on a Long March II-F carrier rocket from the JiuQuan Satellite
Launch Center in the northwestern Gansu Province at 9:10 pm. after a breathtaking countdown to another
milestone on China's space journey. Onboard pilots Zhai Zhigang, Liu Boming and Jing Haipeng are expected
to orbit the earth for three days, when one of them will float out of the cabin about 343 kilometers above the
earth. 　　
     When they make it, China will become the third country in the world who is able to conduct
extra-vehicular activity (EVA) in space following the former Soviet Union and the United States. 　　
     President Hu Jintao watched the historic moment at the launch center, joined by Chinese experts and other
work staff. 　　
     Two taikonauts would enter the orbital module, where one would put on domestically-made spacesuit
Feitian and leave the module to take back test samples loaded outside, said Zhou Jianping, chief designer of
the country's manned space project.
     The other would wear a Russian Orlan suit and stay in the depressurized cabin for support, said Zhou.
"We wish we could fly freely in space just like Feitian on the ancient Buddhist murals, so we gave this name
to the homemade spacesuit," said Zhou. Feitian, which literally means flying in the sky, is the name of a
legendary Buddhist goddess.

seven years ago. I always dreamt of what it
would be some day. Focusing on that goal helps
me get through tough times. To get the kind of
success that you want, you need to dream big.
That's the starting point, Every success story
begins with big dreams. You need to have big
dreams for yourself, like being somebody rich,
famous or fulfilled .You need to have a clear
goal of what you want to achieve.

50 percent of the profits go into the community
development, and the other 50 percent go toward
the funding of a similar shop elsewhere in the United
States. The pride that shop brings to the staff and
local people inspired me.
     What The Body Shop does successfully is use
our facilities in the street and shopping centers to talk
about real human issues like AIDS. recycling, human
rights, and community service or to encourage  people
to speak out against anything they consider to be unjust.
Knowing our products are symbols of social change is
really encouraging.

different from most entrepreneurs. I’m  inspired
by doing things that are not normal and that most
people think don't fit into the business world or
don't make any sense.
     In business, you are judged by the company
you keep—from your management team, board
of directors, and strategic partners. Maybe the
lady you met in a trade association meeting can
help you secure funding, or the gentleman at a
conference can provide you with management
advice.		                                         D

someone who was writing a book on enterprises.

answered. "Lazy" He started laughing and said,
"Believe it or not, a lot of entrepreneurs say the
same thing."
     The average person thinks the opposite of work
is play, but to an entrepreneur, work is play. I think
it all adds up to having fun. It’s fun to create; it's
fun to entertain, and it's fun to make people happy
with our service. When it stops being fun. I'll stop
doing it.

     GUATEMALA CITY(Reuters)-A fish that lives in mangrove swamps (红树沼泽) across the Americas
can live out of water for months at a time, similar to how animals adapted (适应) to land millions of years
ago, a new study shows.
     The Mangrove Rivulus, a type of small killifish, lives in small pools of water in a certain type of empty
nut or even old beer cans in the mangrove swamps of Belize, the United States and Brazil. When their living
place dries up, they live on the land in logs (圆木), said Scott Taylor, a researcher at the Brevard Endangered
Lands Program in Florida.
     The fish, whose scientific name is Rivulus marmoratus, can grow as large as three inches. They group
together in logs and breathe air through their skin until they can find water again.
     The new scientific discovery came after a trip to Belize.
     "We kicked over a log and the fish just came crowding out," Taylor told Reuters in neighboring Guatemala
by telephone. He said he will make his study on the fish known to the public in an American magazine early
next year.
     In lab tests, Taylor said he found the fish can live up to 66 days out of water without eating.
     Some other fish can live out of water for a short period of time. The walking catfish found in Southeast
Asia can stay on land for hours at a time, while lungfish found in Australia, Africa and South America can
live out of water, but only in an inactive state. But no other known fish can be out of water as long as the
Mangrove Rivulus and remain active, according to Patricia Wright, a biologist at Canada's University of
Guelph.
     Further studies of the fish may tell how animals changed over time.
     "These animals live in conditions similar to those that existed millions of years ago, when animals began
making the transition (过渡) form water onto land," Wright said.
1. The Mangrove Rivulus is a type of fish that ______.
A. likes eating nuts
B. prefers living in dry places
C. is the longest living fish on earth
D. can stay alive for two months out of water
2. Who will write up a report on mangrove Rivulus?
A. Patricia Wright.
B. Researchers in Guatemala.
C. Scientists from Belize.
D. Scott Taylor.
3. According to the text, lungfish can ______.
A. breathe through its skin
B. move freely on dry land
C. remain alive out of water
D. be as active on land as in water
4. What can we say about the discovery of Mangrove Rivulus?
A. It was made quite by accident.
B. It was based on a lab test of sea life.
C. It was supported by an American magazine.
D. It was helped by Patricia Wright.

     BEIJING, China (CNN)-Chinese workers and army soldiers were racing to sweep snow-covered highways
and railway routes for millions of travelers trapped by cold weather. 
     More than 67 million people have been affected by the weather and economic losses are expected to reach
as much as $3 billion, Chinese officials say. 
     In the past week, the snowstorms have hit the provinces in central, eastern and southern China-places that
used to have mild winters. 
     "We've never seen such a cold weather lasting for such a long time," said Tang Shan, a man in his 70s
Changsha, Hunan Province. "The last time we had one here was over 50 years ago, and not this bad." 
     The snow has blocked roads, railways and airports, leaving tens of millions of travelers stranded (滞留),
officials say. Many of them are going home ahead of the traditional Lunar New Year, also known as the Spring
Festival. 
     The Lunar New Year travel is China's busiest travel period of the year.But the snow is changing travel plans.
Railway and highway routes have been brought to a pause,a situation in which all activity or movement has
stopped and several regional airports have been closed. 
     In the southern city of Guangzhou, as many as 500,000 train passengers were stranded in the past few
days when a power failure in neighboring Hunan seriously damaged the regular train services, local officials
said. About 100,000 passengers crowded the square in front of the train station, while others found shelter
in schools and other public buildings while waiting for their trains. 
     More terrible weather is expected. China's weather office on Monday issued a warning of more severe (恶

                                                              The Scientific Method
     Did you ever wonder why the water level in a glass doesn't change when the ice in the glass melts
(融化)? To find out why, you can use the scientific method. Used by scientists in various situations, the
scientific method is also a clear and logical way to solve many real-world problems, as the procedure
below indicates.
Steps in the Scientific Method Examples
State the problem or question. "Why doesn't the water level in a glass rise when ice melts?"
Collect information about the problem,
using  your own observations and
research.		 You already know that ice is frozen water. From your research,
you learn that water and ice are made of water molecules (分子).
"Form a hypothesis, or a best guess
based on the information."		 The molecules in water appear to be closer together
than they are in ice.
Test the hypothesis by doing an
experiment.		 Fill four glasses with ice. Then pour water over the ice and fill
each glass to the rim. As the ice melts, you observe that the water
does not spill over the top of the glasses. Each time you repeat the
experiment, you get the same results.
Draw a conclusion based on your results. Molecules are closer together in water than they are in ice.
  
1. We all know the fact that        .
A. the water level in a glass doesn't change when the ice in the glass melts
B. the water level in a glass changes when the ice in the glass melts
C. the water level in a glass rises when the ice in the glass melts
D. the water level in a glass goes down when the ice in the glass melts
2. Which of the following is another good title for this passage?
A. Research and Conclusion            
B. Observation and Experiment

     Quickly, the picture comes alive with hyperlinks (超链接), offering the names of the buildings, towers
and street features that appear in the photo.The hyperlinks lead to information about the history, services
and context of all the features in the photo.You have just hyperlinked your reality.
     That might be a little unbelievable, but the technology exists and is no fevered imagination.This is not a
cool small machine invented for the next James Bond movie; this is a working technology just developed
by European researchers.It could be coming to a phone near you, and soon.
     This, as the marketing types say, is a game changer.It develops a completely new interface (界面)
that combines webtechnology with the real world.It is big and fresh, but it goes much further and has
much greater influence.
     The development of the system is most outstanding because image recognition technology has long
been pregnant with promise, but seemed to suffer from an unending labour.
     Now MOBVIS has not only developed image recognition; it has also developed more applications for
the technology; and it has adapted it to the world's most popular technology: the mobile phone.
     The MOBVIS system completely rewrites the rules for exploration and interaction with your physical
environment.The system begins with panoramas (一连串景象). These panoramas form the basis of a
city database.It can match buildings, towers, banners and even logos that appear in the panoramas. A
user simply takes a picture of the street feature, MOBVIS compares the user's photograph to the
panoramas and then identifies the buildings from the picture you take and the relevant links are returned.
     Then you simply click on the links, using a touchscreen phone, and the MOBVIS system will provide
information on the history, art, architecture or even the menu, if it is a restaurant, of the building in question.

1. Which is introduced in the passage?

A. A new game software.
B. A popular mobile phone.
