   Scientists are very interested in the universe,and they always want to know more about it. Years ago they knew many things about the moon. They knew how big it is and how far away it is away from the earth. But they wanted to know more about it. They thought the best way was to send men to the moon. The moon is about 384,000 kilometers away from the earth. A plane cannot fly to the moon because the air reaches only 240 kilometers away from the earth. But something can fly even when there is no air. That is a rocket (火箭).

    How does a rocket fly? There is gas (气体) in the rocket. When the gas is made very hot inside the rocket,it will rush out of the end of the rocket,so it can make the rocket fly up into the sky. Rockets can fly out into space. Rockets with men in them have been to the moon. Several rockets without men in them have flown to another planet (行星) much farther away than the moon. One day,rockets may be able to go to any place in space.

   My teachers suggested that I see a speech specialist (专家) in school.

    I never really gave much thought to my speech. If other people understood what I was saying,then that was good enough. I didn't mind repeating myself many times.

Before testing me,the speech specialist asked me what I thought of having good speech. I told her I thought it was not important.

   “Well,when you are in an interview for a job,and they don't know what you are saying,what are they going to say to you? Nice to meet you,bye”’ she said.

    Maybe good speech was important. I took part in 20-minute classes each week with the specialist. After she tested me,she told me that I spoke too fast,and didn't give enough eye contact (眼神交 流). I learned that when I made eye contact with someone,it meant that I was talking to that person ,and I could also see what he or she thought about what I was saying.

   When my first speech class started,I found that I had been speaking too fast to be understood. Every time I spoke too fast,the specialist stopped me and told me to start again. At first,I got stopped after almost every other sentence. After a while,I felt my speech slow down. I wasn^ sure if people could understand me better,but my friends stopped asking me to repeat myself.

    Speech is an important skill to have. If you do have good speech,that's a good thing,but if you

don't have it,it is never too late to improve.

() 1. The article is probably taken from .

   A. a newspaper   B. an advertisement

() 3. What were the writer's problems when he was speaking?

a. He spoke too quickly. b. He never stopped once he started talking. c. He seldom kept eye contact with people. d. He didn't give others time to ask questions.

   A. a,b   B. b,c   C. a,c   D. b,d

() 4. From the sentence “…but my friends stopped asking me to repeat myself ,” we know that.

   A. the writer's friends couldn’t understand him  

    B. the writer still couldn’t make eye contact  

    C. the writer improved a lot  

    D. the writer didn't slow down

() 5. Through the passage,the writer wants to tell us that .
