17．Imagine a relay race.During this race，an athlete holds a stick as he runs a certain distance.Then he passes the stick to the next runner.That person runs faster，and then passes the stick to a third runner.Now imagine that the runners do not pass a stick.Instead they pass shiny silk，as well as gold，fruit，and glass.Imagine that the race does not move forward in just one direction.Instead the runners go back and forth along a road.They trade goods all along this route （路线） and at each end of it.Now imagine that the runners are businessmen.They lead caravans （商队） or lines of camels that carry things to sell.They travel on the ancient Silk Road to earn their living.
The Silk Road was a complex trade network.It passed through thousands of cities and towns.It stretched from eastern China，across central Asia and the Middle East，to the Mediterranean Sea.Businessmen traveled on the Silk Road from about 200 B.C.to about 1300 A.D.Then sea travel began to offer new routes.Some people called the Silk Road the world's longest highway.However，the Silk Road included many routes—not just one smooth path.The routes ran through mountains and across deserts.They passed through an area that now includes 18 countries.The Silk Road had many dangers.These dangers ranged from hot sun and deep snow to thieves and wars.Only expert traders could survive.
The Silk Road got its name from its most prized goods.People used silk as money.They could pay taxes or buy goods with it.Traders carried more than just silk，though.They had gold，silver，and glass from Europe.People in the Middle East and Asia wanted these things.Businessmen also took horses from flat，grassy areas in central Asia and brought them to China and other areas.The horses changed the way people farmed and ran their armies.Indian businessmen traded salt and rare，beautiful stones.Chinese merchants traded medicine and china.They also traded paper，which quickly replaced animal skins in the west.Businessmen carried apples from central Asia to Rome.The Chinese had learned to combine different trees to create new kinds of fruit.They taught this science to others，such as the Romans.The Romans began to grow apples for food.The Silk Road led to worldwide commerce 2，000 years before the World Wide Web.
The people along the Silk Road did not share only goods.They also shared beliefs.Monks，priests，and other faith leaders taught their religions to ojye.airs.The Silk Road created pathways for knowledge，diplomacy，and religion.

18．US Space Agency Returns to Mars with InSight Lander The American space agency's lander InSight is to arrive on Mars at the end of November，2018.Unlike NASA's Curiosity rover，InSight will not move across the planet's surface.Instead it will become the first spacecraft （航天器） used only for exploring underground.It will study the geography of Mars，searching for signs of Martian （火星的） quakes.
InSight is a project of U.S.jye.ai Europe.It is 6 meters long and 1.5 meters wide.It weighs 360 kilograms.InSight's 1.8-meter robotic arm will put two experiments in place.Both are designed to explore underground of Mars to learn about the inside.
Bruce Banerdt is the lead scientist for InSight.He viewed the spacecraft as a robot that can take care of itself. "It's got its own brain.It's got an arm.It can listen and feel things.It pulls its own power out of the sun，" he noted.
Thomas Zurbuchen，one of the heads in NASA，said the results of the InSight project could "change the way we think about the inside of our earth." But，first，InSight will have to land on Mars undamaged.Since Mars exploration started in the 1960s，only about 40 percent of the explorations have succeeded.
Tom Hoffman is InSight's project manager.He said earlier successes do not lessen the concerns for each new exploration. "That we've done it before doesn't mean we're not nervous and excited about doing it again，" he said.
InSight will enter the Martian atmosphere（大气层）traveling at 19，800 kilometers an hour.It will slow for landing on a wide flat area on Mars.If all goes well，InSight could carry out its experiments in about 10 weeks.The InSight project is expected to continue for one Martian year，about two years on Earth.
（1）What is the difference between InSight and NASA's Curiosity rover？
A．The size.
B．The design.
C．The speed.
D．The task.
（2）What can we learn from the passage？
A．InSight travels at an unchanged speed.
B．InSight is the project of America and Japan.
C．InSight has the functions （功能） of a robot.
D．InSight is mainly powered by the natural gas.
（3）What will be one of the contributions （贡献） of the InSight project according to Zurbuchen？
A．It will help us understand the geography of Mars.
B．It will change the way we think about the inside of the earth.
C．It will help carry out more experiments on Mars.
D．It will get more information about the reasons for Mars quakes.
（4）What is Hoffman's attitude towards this exploration of the InSight？
A．Confident.
B．Satisfied.
C．Concerned.
D．Frightened.组卷：15引用：1难度：0.5
