    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    阅读下面一篇短文，按照要求回答短文后面的问题：

    　　My husband is on the front lines in Iraq. Not as a soldier, but as a reporter. When I told my friend about his latest task, each had the same reaction, “Did you tell him no?”

    　　They remind me, as if I'd somehow forgotten, that he has left behind our three young children for weeks, perhaps months. He will be risking his life, they say, only for some news.

    　　Is it worth it?

    　　I understand the pity they feel for me because of the burden suddenly heaped on my shoulders.

    My 5－year－old daughter designed a schedule to determine which of the children would keep me company in my empty bed at night. Whether it was her turn or not, I can usually wake to find her huddled against me. My 7－year－old son has many questions about the war and weapons. Though I've never allowed my children to watch the evening news, National Public Radio has been my constant companion, and he was interested in any mention of the war, and he questions me about “when will dad go home”. Most troubling of all, my 9－year－old daughter has said nothing. She has asked no questions and she merely glances at the photo of her father displayed on the page next to his article each morning. And all three are probably the only kids at their school who can find Iraq on a map.

    　　In the end, when friends ask, “Is it worth it?” I can answer yes. He, like other reporters from other countries, is presenting us with the truth.

    　　So when my friends ask, I tell them it wasn't a matter of letting him go or making him stay. My husband just does what his career asks him to do.

    Answer the following questions:

    1．Where is the author's husband?

    ________________________________

    2．What do the author's friends think of her husband going to Iraq?

    ________________________________

    3．Why does the author think her 9－year－old daughter is most troubling of all?

    4．What does the author think of her husband going to Iraq?

    　　As people continue to grow and age, our body systems(系统)continue to change．At a certain point in your life your body system will begin to weaken．Your strength may become weaker．It may become more difficult for you to see and hear．The slow change of aging causes our bodies to lose some of their ability to bounce back from disease and injury．In order to live longer, we have always tried to slow or stop this change that leads us toward the end of our lives．

    　　Many factors(因素)decide your health．A good diet plays an important role．The amount and type of exercise you get is another factor．Your living condition is yet another．But scientists studying aging problem want to know：Why do people grow old?They hope that by studying the aging medical science they may be able to make the length of life longer．

    A Giant Leap for China

    　　A few days ago, he was just Colonel(上校)Yang; few people knew his name or recognized his face．But last Thursday, when he came back to the earth after a 21-hour trip to space, Yang Liwei’s smile was seen across the world above the magic words：“China’s first spaceman”．

    　　The 38-year-old astronaut was sent into space at 9 a. m．Last Wednesday by China’s Shenzhou Ⅴ spacecraft, which orbited the earth 14 times．He landed safely at 6∶23 a. m．The next day, making China the third country successfully send a person into space, after the former Soviet Union and the US．

    　　Yang was satisfied with his job．“I have seen many landing scenes before on video, and I think ours was one of the most successful, ”He said on a special plane to Beijing after landing．Born into an ordinary family in Liaoning Province, he became a pilot in the Chinese Air Force in 1987, spending 1350 hours in the air．He joined the Chinese space programme 11 years later．

    　　While in space, Yang recorded everything he saw as well as showing China’s national flag and the United Nations’ flag to the people watching on TV at home．He also ate a meal of diced chicken and fried rice, before taking a 3-hour nap．The whole project went according to plan, but space exploration is not as easy as it seems．

    　　Anyone who saw the destruction of the US space shuttle Columbia in February this year will know that Yang took a great risk．

    　　He experienced extremely high temperatures, while the gravitation(重力)on take-off and landing were strong enough to force tears from his eyes．

    　　He has spent five years training to become a spaceman．

    　　“I eat all of my meals at the space programme’s dinning room and have never been able to take my son to kindergarten, ”he said．“I’ve never met his teachers．”

    　　But becoming China’s first spaceman has made all the effort worthwhile．

    　　“When I boarded the spacecraft for the first time, I couldn’t help feeling excited,” he said．“I decided that I had to fly it．”

    　　To Chinese people, Yang is now a hero．One visitor to a Xinhua news agency online forum(网上论坛)said, “Yang’s trip is a giant leap forward for China．”

    　　Officials say the next Shenzhou will be launched by 2005．China also plans to develop spacewalking and a space lab．
