2．Paca's life changed the day she watched TV for the first time.It was a rock concert and Paca was fascinated （着迷的） not by the music，but by the singers' long hair.
"Oh!That's just what I want!Something that shows I'm special!" But Paca was only a frog.She didn't even know that frogs don't have hair.She thought that her hair would grow if she gave concerts.So she began to perform.In fact her croak （呱呱叫声） didn't work with rock music，opera or pop，but she carried on performing everywhere she went.She went to towns and cities，to the sea and mountains，into streets and gardens until one day she gave a concert in a hairdresser's.
While Paca was singing，without anyone knowing that there was a frog there，the hairdresser was cutting a customer's hair.A large piece of hair fell into Paca's head，and seeing herself with so much pretty hair，she thought that her dream was finally coming true.
In her excitement，she sang so loudly that she woke up Fredo，the hairdresser's cat.Seeing the pile of moving hair，Fredo caught it，mistaking it for a mouse.Because Fredo didn't like the cold touch and slippery feel of Paca's skin，he freed her as soon as possible.So，in that way Paca learned that being a frog also had its good side.
From that moment on，Paca studied all the advantages of being a frog and the best way to use them.Paca started a school for frogs，where she produced the most talented and happiest frogs.

3．Many of us spent our childhoods dreaming of becoming astronauts.However，only a few would make it.But does that mean you'll never get the chance to work in space？Not necessarily.
In fact，some of the space jobs are not only for astronauts and they all sound just cool.One of the most interesting space jobs is "chief sniffer （嗅探员）".NASA has already had a sniffer named George Aldrich，whose job is to smell materials before they are used in spaceships.
Using your nose at work might sound a little strange，but the job is actually important.A spaceship is of small size and high temperature，which makes smells inside stronger.And once a spaceship is sent，astronauts have no ways to run away from unpleasant smells.More importantly，smelling objects can help find things that could do harm to astronauts' health.
Another job，the "space tour guide"，may seem a little ahead of its time—after all，there aren't any tourists there.But now，many companies are starting to provide space trips and some rich space lovers have ordered the tours.It may not be long before space becomes one of the top travel destinations （目的地）.
Being a space tour guide requires rich knowledge to help passengers get the most out of their journey.Space tour guides also need to be excellent storytellers so that passengers can experience the true beauty of the space travel.
Astronauts often spend long time in space with the same group of people，which is why a "space psychologist （心理学家）" is also needed to help astronauts overcome bad feelings. "We're crossing the boundaries （界限） between science fiction and reality，" said Rohit Talwar，director of the US company Fast Future Research， "Things we've seen in movies are now becoming reality!"

A．Two.
B．Three.
C．Four.
D．Five.
（2）What's George Aldrich's job at NASA mainly about？
A．Cheering astronauts up with excellent stories.
B．Cleaning up dangerous things found in spaceships.
C．Checking the size and temperature of the spaceship.
D．Keeping astronauts safe from things of unpleasant smells.
（3）A space tour guide needs to be.
A．helpful in relaxing and full of energy
B．rich in money and interested in space
C．excellent in knowledge and good at storytelling
D．successful in research and active in communicating
（4）What does Rohit Talwar think of future research in space？
A．It's relaxing.
B．It's moving.
C．It's exciting.
