    Each year, prizes are presented to adults who accomplish great things in art, writing, science, and economics．So why not give awards to kids?
    Harry Leibowitz asked himself that question in 1996．As an answer, he and his wife, Kay, created the World of Children organization and began handing out awards to kids and adults whose work has helped kids all over the world．The awards World of Children presents are nicknamed the "Children's Nobel Prize．" On Thursday, World of Children honored six adults and two kids at its 11th Annual Changemakers for Children awards ceremony held at the UNICEF House at United Nations Plaza in New York City．
    Talia Leman, from Iowa, was awarded a Founder's Youth Award for Leadership．She is only 13 years old, but she has accomplished a lot．In 2005, she founded "RandomKid．" Since then, the nonprofit organization has raised more than $10 million to help kids in 48 states in the U．S．and in 19 other countries develop funding solutions to real-world problems．One place helped by RandomKid was a school built in Cambodia to enable 300 kids to go to school．The organization has also helped fix a school for 200 kids in Slidell, Louisiana, and provided interactive play centers that serve more than 500 kids in hospitals in Iowa．In faraway places like Africa, RandomKid has provided money for the purchase of water pumps．
    Talia never thought that the organization she founded would be as successful as it has become．"I did a project called TLC, which meant Trick or Treat for the Levy Catastrophe, where kids would trick-or-treat for coins along with getting candy," she told me．"My goal was to raise $1 million．That seemed really high, but when you reach a goal, you always wind up reaching higher--and we actually raised $10 million．" The money RandomKid raised provided help to the victims of hurricanes Katrina and Rita．

    BEUING (Associated Press 美联社) —China has a growing middle class, a tradition (传统) of expecting education and 21 million new babies every year. Selling educatioinal toys should be easy.

BabyCare works on a one to one basis. Doctors, nurses, and teachers paid by BabyCare advise parents, explain toys that are designed for children at each stage (阶段) of development to age six.
    BabyCare opened its first store in China last June in a shopping center in central Beijing and another near Beijing Zoo. It plans to have 80 stores in China within six years.
    It is a new model for China and develops a market in young children’s education and health that no other companies are in.

    　　In 1961, scientist set up gigantic, sensitive instruments to collect radio waves from the far reaches of space, hoping to discover in them some mathematical pattern indicating that the waves were sent out by other intelligent beings. The first attempt failed, but someday the experiment may succeed.
    　　What reason is there to think that we may actually detect intelligent life in outer space？To begin with, modern theories of the development of stars suggest that almost every star has some sort of family of planets. So any star like our own sun （and there are billions of such stars in the universe） is likely to have a planet situated at such a distance that it would receive about the same amount of radiation as the earth.
    　　Furthermore, such a planet would probably have the same general composition as our planet; so, allowing a billion years or two or three, there would be a very good chance for life to develop, if current theories of the origin of life are correct.
    　　But intelligent life？Life that has reached the stage of being able to send radio waves out into space in a deliberate pattern？Our own planet may have been in existence for five billion years and may have had life on it for two billion, but it is only in the last fifty years that intelligent life capable of sending radio waves into space has lived on earth. From this it might seem that even if there were no technical problems involved, the chance of receiving signals from any particular earth-type planet would be extremely small.
    　　This does not mean that intelligent life at our level does not exist somewhere. There are such an unimaginable number of stars that, even at such miserable possibility, it seems certain that there are millions of intelligent life forms scattered through space. The only trouble is, none may be within easy distance of us. Perhaps none ever will be; perhaps the distances that separate us from our fellow “creatures” of this universe will forever remain too great to be conquered. And yet it is conceivable that someday we may come across one of them or, frighteningly, one of them may come across us. What would they be like, these outside-the-earth creatures？
    1.What point is the author making by stating that almost every star has some sort of family of planets？
    　　A. Sooner or later intelligent beings will be found on one of the stars.
    　　B. There must be one or two of the planets on which there are no intelligent beings.
    　　C. There are sufficient planets for there to be one that enjoys the same conditions as the earth does.
    　　D. One or two billion years later intelligent beings will generate on those planets.
    2.What is the main topic of the passage？
    　　A. Some probable intelligent life forms on other planets.
    　　B. Various stages undergone by the intelligent life on other planets.
    　　C. Grounds for probable existence of intelligent life on other planets.
    　　D. The possibility of intelligent life existing on our planet.
    3.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage？
    A. An encounter is probable between people from the earth and intelligent beings from another planet.
    B. Though the first attempt failed, scientists did discover the radio waves sent out by other intelligent beings.
    C. Other intelligent beings were able to send our radio waves into space well before the last fifty years.
    D. It is certain that there are millions of intelligent beings scattered in space but only too far away.
    4.According to the author, what is the difference between “we may come across one of them” and “one of them may come across us”？
    A. The earth would be dangerously disadvantaged if it is sought after by possibly much more developed creatures.
    B. It would prove that there are too many outside-the-earth creatures if “one of them comes across us”.
    C. The history of the development of the earth would be proved to be shorter than that of “them” if “they” come across us.
    D. it would prove that the distance in between is not so great as we think if “we come across one of them” someday.

    （A）
    JIUQUAN, Gansu Province, Sept. 6(Xinhua) ---- China’s manned spacecraft Shenzhou-7 will be launched at an appropriate time between Sept. 25 and 30 from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern Gansu Province, a spokesman said here on Saturday. The mission will accomplish the first spacewalk by Chinese astronauts.
    “All the major systems involved in the launching are now in the final preparation. The main tests for the spacecraft, the Long-March II-F rocket, suits for the space walk and a satellite accompanying the fly have also been finished, ” said the spokesman.

    When Shenzhou-7 enters its orbit, one of the three taikonauts will conduct a space walk, said Zhao Changxi, a senior scientist with the project, earlier.
    According to Zhao, cameras would be fixed outside and inside of the ship for live broadcasting of the space walk.
    While the last mission of Shenzhou-6, with a crew of two, was aimed at several days of manned flight, this time the task might be more stringent as one of its main goals is the space walk.
    Earlier reports said a crew of six astronauts had been chosen for the mission, with three manning the spacecraft and three substitutes. 
    China successfully put two manned spacecrafts into orbit in 2003 and 2005 respectively, becoming the third country to send an astronaut into space after the United States and the former Soviet Union(now Russia).
    56. What is the main idea of the passage?
    A. Shenzhou-7 is better equipped than the last two spaceships.
    B. Shenzhou-7 will be more successful than the last two launches.
    C. All the systems involved in the launching have been prepared.
    D. China is ready for the launching of Shenzhou-7.
    57. We can learn from the passage ________.
    A. This will be the third time for Chinese astronauts to have a space walk
    B. Three of the six astronauts chosen for the mission will walk in space
    C. The space walk will be live broadcasted on TV
    D. Everything has been prepared except communication system
