With lots of crop failures，nationwide hunger hit China in the 1960s，making many people live a bad life.Yuan was sad and felt he must do something.Since the climate in Hunan was not friendly to growing wjye.aiat.He decided to devote himself to studying how to increase the production of rice，a basic food for over 60 percent of Chinese people.From then on，he began a lifelong connection with rice.

3．Planned missions to the moon need to hurry up to avoid hitting one of the busiest periods for extreme space weather，according to scientists conducting the most in-depth ever research on solar storm timing.
Scientists at the University of Reading studied 150 years of space weather data to look into patterns in the timing of the most extreme events，which can be extremely dangerous to astronauts and satellites.This new research on space weather timing allows predictions to be made for extreme space weather.Therefore，it could be used to plan the timing of activities，which could be affected by extreme space weather，for example，major space missions.
The researchers found for the first time that extreme space weather events are more likely to occur early in or late solar cycles-such as the one just starting.The findings may have influences on the NASA-led Artemis mission.It plans to make humans return to the moon in 2024，but can be put off to the late 2020s.
Professor Mathew Owens，a space physicist at the University of Reading，said， "Until now，the most extreme space weather events were thought to be random in their timing.Though there is no set pattern of the events，this research suggests they are more predictable."
In the new study，the scientists used a new method applying statistical（统计的）modelling to storm timing for the first time.Previous research generally focused on how big extreme space weather events can be，based on observations of previous events.Predicting their timing is far more difficult because extreme events are rare，so there is relatively little historic data to identify patterns.The findings suggest that any major planned space missions，which is beyond the next five years，will have to consider the higher probability of extreme space weather late in the present solar cycle between 2026 and 2030.
（1）What can we learn about the study from the first two paragraphs？
A．It has lasted just 150 years.
B．It doesn't refer to space weather data.
C．It shows space weather has no effect on astronauts.
D．It makes it possible to predict extreme space weather.
（2）Why might the NASA-led Artemis mission be put off？
A．To research solar cycles.
B．To avoid effects of space weather.
C．To meet the needs of the astronauts.
D．To make humans return to Earth in 2024.
（3）What does the underlined word "random" in paragraph 4 probably mean？
A．Irregular.
B．Easy.
C．Limited.
D．Changeless.
（4）What can we infer from the last paragraph？
A．The study is useful for future space missions.
B．The planned space missions should be put off.
C．Extreme space weather will happen before 2026.
D．Previous observations make no difference to the study.组卷：3引用：1难度：0.5

Teresa Perkins was driving 80 miles per hour along Route 340 on Wednesday.The woman knew she was going too fast，but it was the only hope she had.Her dog，Jett，was dying in the，backseat.About a half hour earlier she had received a call from her daughter，who had been playing with Jett，a 3-year-old，120-pound black German Shepherd.The ball they were playing with got stuck in Jett's throat.The dog was struggling to breathe.
Perkins raced home to see if she could help，but the dog slobber（口水）had made the ball too slippery to pull out by hand.They put the dog in the backseat of her car and began their race to the vet in Waynesboro.
About halfway there，Perkins got caught in construction traffic.Jett was struggling even more at that point and Perkins knew she only had minutes，but she was now stopped in a line of cars.She began blowing her horn（喇叭） to get the attention of someone，anyone，when three construction workers walked up to her.In a panicked voice，she told them her dog was dying.
"By then my dog was pretty much dead，" Perkins said on Wednesday night. "He was lying in the car，not moving.I had，heard him breathe，broken-winded，but then he quit.I was wildly crying and praying."
Cavaja Holt was one of the workers standing tjye.aire.He stuck his hand down the weak dog's throat and pulled out the ball，but Jett still wasn't breathing. "And the guy behind Holt tried .to breathe in Jett's mouth，" Perkins said. "And he did." Perkins jumped out of the car and helped start doing first aid on Jett.The two were working together to save the dog's life，when Holt cried， "He's awake."
Perkins began crying and just thanking Holt over and over.When she saw the line of cars，she thought she had made a mistake going that direction.It turned out that it was the best choice she could have made.
