  NASA's twin Mars rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, have been exploring the Red Planet since 2004.But a little more than a year ago, NASA lost contact with Spirit.The space agency has tried several ways to make contact with the rover, but Spirit has not sent back any signals.

  Spirit landed on Mars on January 4, 2004.Three weeks later, Opportunity arrived.Soon after, the rovers went to the opposite side of Mars.Spirit's original mission was only designed to last for three months, but Spirit has worked for more than five years doing additional missions.Both rovers have made important discoveries about ancient Mars.They have taken thousands of images and found evidence in the rocks of a water, warmer past in Mars' history.

  Spirit is solar-powered.It got stuck in a sand trap in April 2009, trapped deep into the soil and with its wheels turning around and around but not able to move forwards or backwards.Spirit had to agree that there is nothing that can be done to change the situation-it's never going to move again.However, even if it is a not moving station, it can still study the planet's atmosphere and deep interior.

  NASA has been concentrating on trying to position its solar panels to get as much energy from the sun as possible, or to get the rover leaning in a manner that will allow the most amount of sunlight falling on its solar panels, in order to keep it alive during the coming winter months.Engineers have planned to rock the vehicle back and forth to acquire a more favorable position.However, no matter how many efforts have been made, Spirit still could not get out of the soft soil and could not lean itself toward the sun as the Martian winter approached.Without enough energy reaching its solar panels and with so little energy in its batteries, it went into hibernation, just like a polar bear, and has not communicated with Earth since March 22, 2010.

  Whatever the future holds for Spirit, its mission has been an outstanding success.When it landed on the Red Planet in January 2004, no one was really sure how long it would continue working in the cold and dusty environment.As a matter of fact, three months was its original goal.

  After so many fruitless efforts, NASA scientists are losing hope of ever reconnecting with Spirit, but they will give it one more try.Ground controllers are contacting Spirit over a range of frequencies and at different times during the day in case its internal clock stopped working and it lost track of time.They also are commanding the rover to turn on its backup radio transmitter in case the main one is dead.

  If this final effort to connect isn't successful, NASA will shift the focus to its twin robot, Opportunity, which is in a different part of Mars.Opportunity is still on the move and continues to travel freely to this day.It has traveled 16.6 miles so far, and is currently rolling towards another crater it has yet to explore.

  NASA has spent more than $900 million on the project but shows no sign of giving up on these determined and hard-working robots.The rovers are, though, experiencing gradual wear and tear, the expected damage to something caused by using it repeatedly over a period of time.Even before Spirit got trapped, one of its wheels had failed.And NASA says it's just a matter of time before both robots break down completely.

More to dinner than just food

You are not the first one in your class to hear the complaints that teenagers nowadays are unruly (难管的) and uncommunicative.

And it is not just your parents’remarks.Teachers in the UK also find it difficult to communicate with their students.And now they are asking:why?

According to a recent survey in Britain,the erosion (消磨) of family life leaves parents less time to teach key social skills such as listening to others,saying “please” and “thank you” and taking turns.“One of the most important factors has been the loss of the family meal,which has reduced family conversation,” said John Dunford,general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders.

Dunford believes family meals are a good chance to stay connected.It’s an emotional and mutual bond based on warmth and trust.“Family meals are a time for sharing thoughts and ideas and problem­solving together,”he says.“Having meals together means parents and teenagers can find the delicate (微妙的) balance between staying connected and letting go.”

Dunford also criticized celebrity worshipping (明星崇拜),which makes teaching “more difficult than it has ever been”.

Schools are based on the connection between hard work,passing exams and getting a good job.However,worshipping celebrities makes teenagers believe social advancement can be gained through the purchase of a lottery ticket rather than hard work.

“Young people forget that high­earning footballers have to train incredibly hard,that successful pop singers have to practice for hours and I think it makes the job of the school more difficult,” says Nick Seaton of the Campaign for Real Education.

68.All of the following contributed to the fact that teenagers nowadays are difficult to communicate with EXCEPT________.

A.parents’less involvement in teaching their children key social skills

B.an addiction to online games

C.the loss of family meals

D.celebrity worshipping

69.Which of the following is NOT the reason for the importance of family meals according to the text?

A.They are good time for teenagers to learn social skills.

B.They provide a good opportunity to share thoughts and ideas.

C.Family members can take the time to enjoy TV programs together

D.Family members can solve problems together during this period of time.

70.What can we infer from Paragraph 6?

A.Celebrity worshipping makes teenagers believe they can achieve success through good luck.

B.Celebrity worshipping makes teenagers take an interest in buying lottery tickets.

C.Celebrities can inspire teenagers to fulfill their dreams through hard work.

D.Celebrities who buy a lottery ticket set a bad example to teenagers.
