• 3．For centuries，human beings have dreamed of travelling into space，orbiting our little blue planet.It seems that our dream will finally come true，as US startup Orion Span announced on April 5 that it planned to launch the first hotel in space in 2021.It will be ready to welcome guests the following year.
     The space hotel，Aurora Station，will orbit 230 miles above Earth，circling it every 90 minutes.It can house two crew members and four guests.The crew members will likely be former NASA astronauts who worked on the International Space Station.However，there's a catch：Each guest must pay at least ＄9.5 million for a 12-day stay at the hotel.
     Guests can do many exciting things aboard Aurora Station.According to Orion Span，guests can enjoy the excitement of zero gravity as they fly throughout the space hotel.They can watch 16 sunrises and sunsets every day and view the northern and southern auroras（ 极光）through the windows.They can take part in research experiments like growing food，and even take it home as a souvenir.
     But most importantly，the trip will offer a real sense of what it's like to live in space. "The premise（前提）of Aurora Station is for guests to live，feel，and breathe what it's like to be an astronaut，" Frank Bunger，CEO of Orion Span，told the Robb Report. "The food and drinks are freeze-dried products.It's not going to be five-star dining......Fire and gas don't work the same way in space as they do on Earth."
     To better prepare guests for space travel，the company will require a health screening and provide a three-month training program that helps guests understand basic spaceflight，orbital mechanics and life in the pressurized environment of space.
     "Future Aurora owners can live in，visit，or sublease（转租） their space apartment，" Bunger said in a news release. "This is an exciting breakthrough and Orion Span is proud to pave the way."

  （2）What can guests do on Aurora Station？

  
  A．They can enjoy five-star meals.
  B．They can buy various souvenirs.

• 4．This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers（young people aged from 13-19）from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes.They will attend US schools，meet US teenagers，and form impressions of the real America.At the same time，about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
     Here is a two-way student exchange in action.Fred，nineteen，spent last year in Germany with George's family.In turn，George's son Mike spent a year in Fred's home in America.
     Fred，a lively young man，knew little German when he arrived，but after two months' study the language began to come to him.School was completely different from what he had expected-much harder.Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room.They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that were usual in the United States.There were almost no outside activities.
     Family life，too，was different.The father's word was law，and all activities were around the family rather than the individual.Fred found the food too simple at first.Also，he missed having a car."Back home，you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time.In Germany，you walk，but you soon learn to like it."
     At the same time，in America，Mike，a friendly German boy，was also forming his idea."I suppose I should criticize American schools，" he said."It is far too easy by our level.But I have to say that I like it very much.In Germany we do nothing but study.Here we take part in many outside activities.I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens.There ought to be some middle ground between the two."
  
  （1）The whole exchange program is mainly to

  .
  A．help teenagers in other countries know the real America
  B．send students in America to travel in Germany
  C．let students learn something about other countries
  D．have teenagers learn new languages
  （2）What is particular in American schools？

  
  A．There is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings.
  B．There are a lot of outside activities.
  C．Students usually take 14 subjects in all.
  D．Students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car.
  （3）What did Mike think after experiencing the American school life？

  
  A．A better education should include something good from both America and Germany.
  B．German schools trained students to be better citizens.
  C．American schools were not as good as German schools.
  D．The easy life in the American school was more helpful to students.
  （4）What's Mike's attitude towards American education？

  
  A．Praised.

      Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake.The next minute，the porridge boiled over and put out the fire.Jenna panicked.Thankfully，Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly.But the stove was a mess now.Jenna told Jeff to clean it up so they could continue to cook the rest of the porridge.But Jeff's hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain.Jenna made him put his hand in cold water.Then she caught the smell of burning.Oh dear!The piece of bread in the pan had turned black as well.
