A Christmas Carol is a famous short novel written by Charles Dickens. It is about an old man named Scrooge who never laughs or smiles. He is mean and only thinks about himself. He doesn't treat others nicely. He just cares about whether he can make more money and he hates Christmas. One Christmas Eve, Scrooge sees the ghost of Jacob Marley. Marley used to be just like Scrooge, so he was punished after he died. He warns Scrooge to change his ways if he doesn't want to end up like him. He also tells Scrooge to expect three spirits to visit him.
That night, three ghosts visit Scrooge. First, the Ghost of Christmas Past takes him back to his childhood and reminds Scrooge of his happier days as a child. Then the second spirit, the Ghost of Christmas Present, takes him to see how others are spending Christmas this year. Everyone is happy, even poor people. The last one, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, takes him to the future. Scrooge sees that he is dead, but nobody cares. He is so scared that he wakes up in his bed and finds out it is only the next morning — Christmas Day!
He decides to change his life and promises to be a better person. He happily celebrates Christmas with his relatives. He also gives gifts to people in need. He now treats everyone with kindness and warmth, spreading love and joy everywhere he goes. And that is the true spirit of Christmas!

There’s no pizza on Mars, but scientists have found a solution to this problem for hungry astronauts: a pizza printer! NASA, the American space agency, has developed a machine that “prints” food. They showed a model of the printer in Austin, Texas last month.
How does it work? Cartridges(墨盒) filled with powdered dough(面粉团), cheese, sauce, water and oil put the ingredients layer(层)by layer onto a printer bed. The printer bed, which gets hot from below, cooks the food as it’s being printed.
Since most of the ingredients are powdered, they can be sent into space and stored for many years without going bad. Water makes food go sour, so the food powders are mixed with water and oil only when they are being printed.
“Long-distance space travel requires more than 15 years of shelf life for food.” says Anjan Contractor, whose company developing the printer. “ We take water out, and in that form, food will last maybe 30 years.”
In outer space, there are far fewer choices for astronauts for dinner. Most of their foods—even things like beef or shrimp—are eaten from bags as powders（粉末）. Scientists hope the new food printer can be used to make more delicious food in outer space, keeping astronauts healthier and happier.
But the printer is not limited to use in outer space. Scientists think it could be useful on Earth, too. It could allow personal meals to be made at the dinner table, according to each person’s different needs.
“Let’s say someone is an athlete in the family, and he needs more protein(蛋白质),” says Anjan Contractor, founder of Systems and Materials Research Corp, the company developing the printer. “We can design recipes for him and print out more protein-nutritious food for him.”
1.In outer space, food can be stored for many years without going bad_______.
A．when it’s mixed with water
B．when it’s mixed with oil
C．when it’s powdered
D．when it’s put in the fridge
2.Which of the following is TRUE? ______
A．Astronauts eat beef powder in outer space.
B．A model of the food printer was shown in New York last month.
C．Only astronauts and athletes can eat the food from the printer.
D．The printer can only be used in outer space.
3.What is the best title for this passage? _______
A．Astronauts’ Life in Outer Space
B．Hungry? Just Print!
C．How to Make Pizza
D．Long Lasting Food

Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The program works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.
The eye-recognition(眼睛识别) program is already being tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain and France. Soon, this technology(技术) will change all other ways of finding out who people are.
However, scientists are working on other systems. Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hands or even your smell! We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your fingers.
Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don’t change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes, so the program can be up to 94％ correct, depending on how good the technology is. Some programs may only be right 51％ of the time. In Britain, it was found that 91％ of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.
In the future your computer will be looking at you in the eye. So smile!
1. What is the advantage of using the eye-recognition program?
A. You needn’t use a machine.
B. You needn’t remember a number.
C. You needn’t look at the machine.
D. You needn’t take some money with you.
2.How does the eye-recognition program work?
A. You type in your number.
B. You show your ID card.
C. You look at the machine.
D. You say your name.
3.Why can the eye-recognition program be up to 94％ correct?
A. Because eyes hardly change.
B. Because hands or fingers can get dirty.
C. Because people like the idea of the program.
D. Because the program is widely used around the world.
4.Which of the following is TRUE?
A. The program is being tested in Japan.
B. Computers can remember you by looking at your clothes.
C. 91％ of people in Britain don’t like the idea of the eye-recognition program.
