It isn’t hard to grow up into a responsible members of society. I can well remember an incident that happens on a rainy Sunday afternoon. I was on my way to the bookstore and was waiting the green light at a crossing when a girl about ten was knocked on by a passing car, it drove off quickly. A man immediately rushed to a girl to give her first aid and I joined in without hesitation. Luckily she was not badly injured but we sent her to the nearest hospital. Comparing with the escaped driver, I am proud of what I did.

As a member of the society, I am convinced of that being responsible is that it takes to make a better society.

If you look at the night sky, you’ll often see stars moving very quickly. In fact, they move much more quickly than they should according to their size and the laws of physics.

Scientists do not completely understand why the speed of these stars is so high. But many believe the reason is that much of the universe is made of something called “dark matter”. Groups of stars called galaxies, such as the Milky Way, might even be made up of 90 percent dark matter.

How much something weighs depends on where it is. The same object weighs only half as much on Mars as it does on Earth and almost three times as much on Jupiter. So scientists prefer to talk about the mass (质量) of something rather than how much it weighs, because mass does not change. They can work out the mass of galaxies by measuring the distance between them and the speed they move at.

Recently, Jorge Pe?arrubia, a senior academic at Edinburgh University, UK, and his team discovered something interesting: The mass of the Milky Way is only half as much as the mass of another nearby galaxy, Andromeda. This seems strange, and dark matter may explain why.

Finding out more about dark matter could help us understand how the universe began, but this is not easy. Lots of scientists with different types of expert knowledge are working on the problem.

We can’t see dark matter, it’s very difficult to measure and we can’t find out its mass. Unlike stars, dark matter doesn’t produce or reflect light. But we can make a good guess that it is there because of the way things move and the way light bends. Experts now think dark matter may be very different from the matter that we find on Earth. There may also be five times as much dark matter in the universe as ordinary matter.

1.Something that weighs 15kg on Earth weighs about ________ on Mars and ________ on Jupiter.

A. 7.5 kg, 45 kgB. 30 kg, 45 kgC. 45 kg, 7.5 kgD. 5 kg, 30 kg

2.The author mentions the masses of the Milky Way and Andromeda mainly to ________.

A. explain why the same object has a different weight on different stars

B. compare the distance between the Milky Way and Andromeda

C. show that studying dark matter could help to answer some scientific questions

D. support the idea that scientists prefer to talk about mass instead of weight

3.Dark matter is difficult to investigate because ________.

A. it travels at a very fast speed

B. we can’t see where it is or measure its mass

C. it’s hard to measure the light it produces and reflects

D. it is much bigger than ordinary matter in size

4.According to the text, dark matter ________.

A. could accelerate the speed of stars

B. could lessen the mass of objects in galaxies

C. makes up the entire universe and its stars

D. may help us identify the origins of the universe

How to prepare for exam?

Parents who do not know the examination time schedule can search ‘exam timetable’ to see the official examination schedule.2.

4. For lessons,pupils must participate in lessons and discussions actively.For exercise,work on the simple ones in the textbook.For theory,pupils can use the mind map method to summarize the facts.

At last,study smart.Focus on chapters that are the core of the subject or difficult chapters.5.

One day, a student asked him, “My dear teacher, didn’t you say you yourself have many more questions about things than we do? 4. I think we students have far more than you.”

My parents and I made a tour to Xi’an last summer holiday. Instead of having a travel agency arranging our transportation and accommodation, we booked the train tickets and hotel rooms on the Internet by us. During our tour in Xi’an, we went to many places of interests and took lots of photos, learned about the history of Xi’an. No tourists would miss the local food in Xi’an, so would we. We enjoyed the typically local food, it tasted more delicious than we had expected. Hardly had I returned than I shared the photos and experiences for my classmates. The trip to Xi’an has been such happy memory to me that I will never forget it.

Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.

The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.

You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem (自信心). Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power，or responsibility for their lives. They are always victims. They are leaves tossed (摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.

You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible.

Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause，we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence.

If you associate with positive-thinking people，you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary，the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding，planting，and nurturing (培育) the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks (挫折).

In short, in all areas of your life，whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it. You are on the road to success.

1. Why people with low self-confidence are compared to leaves?

A. Because they can’t exercise control over themselves

B. Because they are easily affected by windy weather

C. Because they don’t have the power to face their fate

D. Because they are ready to change their minds

2.What would losers think?

A. Success is the result of hard work

B. Working hard will lead to success

C. They fail only because of bad luck

D. They don’t make efforts to succeed

3. What can be inferred from the fifth paragraph?

A. Setting our expectations is essential before taking action

B. Knowing cause and effect is the key to future success

C. Thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind

D. Whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes

4. What does the last paragraph serve as?

A. The proof of the author’s points

B. The conclusion of the argument

C. An introduction to another topic

D. A comparison between two views
