C
It was at least tow months before Christmas, when nine-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bike. Her Barbi bike was just too old, and it needed repairing as well.
As Christmas came nearer, her dream for a bike seemed to disappear, so we thought, for she didn’t mention it again. We were busy buying some beautiful storybooks, a doll house, a holiday dress and toys. Then much to our surprise, on December 24, she said she really wanted a bike more than anything else.
Now we didn’t know what to do. It was just toot late. We were busy with Christmas dinner and packing children’s presents, parents’ presents, a brother’s present and friends’ presents till midnight.So there was no time to take to buy the “right bike” for our little girl. Thinking that we were parents who would make their children unhappy, we felt guilty and sad.
Suddenly my husband came up with an idea. “What if I make a little bike out of clay(泥土) and write a note(便条) that she could trade in(交换) the model bike for a real one?” So he spent the next five hours carefully working with the clay to make a small bike.
On Christmas morning, we were so excited for Almie Rose to open the little box with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. She opened and read the note loudly.
She looked at me and Ron and said, ”So does this mean I can trade in this bike for a real one?” Smiling, I said, “Yes.”
Almie Rose had tears in her eyes when she replied, “I would never trade in this beautiful bike that Daddy made me. I prefer to keep it rather than get a real bike.” At that moment, we would have moved the God to buy her every bike on the Earth.
【小题1】Rose’s wish was to____ on Christmas Day.

A.get a new bikeB.make a clay bike

【小题4】Rose’s father got a good idea to____.
A.spend five hours finishing making a small bike with clay

C.make her old bike red and white
D.put the present in the box
【小题5】From Rose’s words in the last passage , we know that she____

     Once very surprising, now very important, women astronauts (宇航员) explain what's so cool about
zero-g, and what 50 years exploration (探索) has taught the world.
     Peggy Whitson
     Age: 48
    Astronaut since:  1996 
    Space time: Two six-month tours on the Intemational Space Station, in 2002 and 2007-2008.
    "Mind is a lot more important than body. So is your ability to think in 3-D and imagine how to move things
in a different way than on earth. The second time I went to the station, it felt like coming home. I got
comfortable much more quickly. Everything is lifted while you're up there, so you look younger. Being back
on earth is not pleas ant at first. Moving around is difficult, like playing basketball. But I had my physical
training for about a month after my retum."
     Sunita Williams
     Age: 43
     Astronaut since: 1998
     Space time: Six months on the space station in 2006-2007, including more than 29 hours of space walks.
    "I learned after about a week how to fly beautifully without going too fast or shaking around. I had a hard
time remembering how to walk, I prefer flying! When you have that idea of being far away anti looking back
at the planet, you don't see any cit- ies or countries. You see a very quiet place. Just as Gandhit-the Father of
the Na- tion in India, once explained the feeling of oneness in all of us. Seeing our planet from space, you
understand that."
      Barbara Morgan
     Age: 56
     Astronaut since: 1985
     Space time: One shuttle mission in 2007
     "No matter how I was situated (处于…位置) the first day, it seemed that my body was upside down
(颠倒着). That might have been because all your blood comes to your head. And what memory do you have
in that situation? It's like when you're kids, hanging upside down."
1. What kinds of writing is the passage?
A. A news report.
B. A scientific article.
C. A textbook lesson.
D. A recorded interview.
2. How many of the mentioned women astronauts talked about zero-g?
A. None.
B. One.
C. Two.
D. Three.
3. What is the most serious problem astronauts may come across after they retum to the earth?
A. They are still living a space life as usual.
B. They are not used to the earth's situation.
C. They are not as comfortable as in space.
D. They are still thinking of their space travel.
4. What did Sunita Williams mainly leam by seeing the earth from space?
