Food is weightless, just as men are.Food for space has to be packed in special ways. Some of it goes into tubes that a man can squeeze into his mouth. Bite-sized cookies are packed in plastic.There is a good reason for covering each bite. The plastic keeps pieces of food from traveling in the spaceship. On the earth very small pieces of food would simply fall to the floor. But gravity doesn‘t pull them to the floor wh en they are out of the plastic in a spaceship. They move here and there and can get into a man‘s eyes or into the spaceship‘s instruments. If any of the instruments is blocked, the astronauts may have trouble getting safely home.As astronauts travel on longer space trips, they must take time to sleep. An astronaut can fit himself to his seat with a kind of seat belt .Or, if he wants to, he can sleep in a sleeping bag which is fixed in place under his seat. But be careful he must put his hands under the belt when he goes to sleep. This is because he is really afraid that he might touch one of controls that isn‘t supposed to be touched until later.61. Why would astronauts cover each bite of food in space？_____A. Because small pieces of food would fall down to the floor.B. Because weightless pieces of food might make trouble when they travel around.C. Because they haven‘t enough food for longer trips.D. because astronauts don‘t want to waste food.62. In a spaceship, astronauts can ______.A. walk just as they do on the earthB. not eat anything because it‘s dangerousC. control the spaceship when they are sleepingD. not litter small things or it will make trouble63. In what way is food for space packed？_____A. Very small pieces of food are put on the floor.B. Some of it is put into tubes.C. Small-sized cookies are packed in plastic.D. Both B and C.64. Why does an astronaut put his hand under his belt when he sleeps？______A. Because he thinks it is comfortable to sleep in that way in space.B. Because he doesn‘t want to touch any controls when he sleeps.C. Because the instruments of the spaceship are easily broken.D. Because he is afraid that the seat will move.65. The best title of this article is _____.A. Eating and Sleeping in SpaceB. How Astronauts Eat in SpaceC. Food for SpaceD. How Astronauts Sleep in SpaceB―Mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton (骨骼) in the closet (衣橱)？‖Jessica asked. ―A skeleton in the closet?‖her mother paused thoughtfully, Well, it‘s something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dad‘s family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be ‗a skeleton in his family‘s closet‘. He really wouldn‘t want any neighbor to know about it.‖―Why pick on my family?‖ Jessica‘s father said with anger. ―Your family history isn‘t so good, you know. Wasn‘t your great – great grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes?‖―Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.‖―Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now,‖Jessica cut in before things grew worse.After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessica‘s parents were still quite angry with each other. Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica‘s closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessica‘s mother sank into a faint (晕倒), waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.―What happened? Where am I?‖ she asked. ―You just destroyed the school‘s skeleton, Mum,‖ explained Jessica. ―I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.‖ Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. ―They‘re both crazy,‖ she thought.66．According to Jessica‘s mother, ―a skeleton in the closet‖ means .A．a family honor B．a family secret C．a family story D．a family treasure 67．What can we learn about some Australian‘s ancestors from Paragraph 2?A．They were brought to Australia as prisoners.B．They were the earliest people living in Australia.C．They were involved in some crimes in Australia.D．They were not regarded as criminals in their days.68．Jessica‘s mother fell down into a faint because she was .A．knocked B．frightened C．injured D．surprised 69．Why did Jessica bring a skeleton home?A．She was curious about it.

In fact, wouldn’t it be wonderful if the topic never had to be broached? Unfortunately, few among us haven’t been touched, in some way，by the disease.One teacher at Howell’s Land O’Pines School decided last year to make a learning experience out of cancer awareness, and with the help of his fellow teachers, has succeeded in taking a terrible subject and turning it into something that allows the children to make a difference while helping others.The Hats On Day project began a decade ago in Missouri when a fifth grade class wanted to raise money to help a fellow classmate battling cancer. The children wanted to raise awareness about the effects of chemotherapy (化疗) and decided to wear hats to show their support for people who lose their hair while undergoing (接受) treatment for cancer.During the 10 years since the first Hats On Day, the project has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for children with cancer. Raymond Gredder, a fifth grade teacher at Land O’Pines, heads up the program locally. As part of the project, Land O’Pines students are asked to bring in monetary donations this week that will be contributed to the Foundation for Children with Cancer.This is the second year Land O’Pines is participating (参加) in the Hats On Day project. Last year the Student Council organized the weeklong collection and raised more than $2,000. This year Gredder is running the program through the fifth grade health curriculum (课程). He believes it is extremely important for children to be involved in events such as Hats On Day that promote an awareness and understanding of people in need.71.
