Recently, a solar-powered (太阳能动力的) plane took to the sky for the first time. It passed an important test on the way to travel around the world.

The plane took off from an airport in Switzerland. It slowly rose above the fields and into the sky.
“There has never been an airplane of that kind that could fly — never an airplane so big, so light, using so little energy,” said Bertrand Piccard, a leader of the project.
During the 90-minute flight(飞行), the plane did several turns. It climbed nearly 1.6km above the countryside.
Engineers plan to test a night flight before July. Then they will use the results of the tests to build a second plane. They plan to travel around the world in that plane in 2012.
“We want to fly it day and night with no fuel (燃料),” Piccard said.
Piccard and pilot(飞行员) Andre Borschberg will take the plane around the world. They will make a few stops to change places and rest after a long time in the air — and to show off their airplane.
The plane will fly at 70 km per hour on average(平均). That is faster than a bike and slower than a car. The pilots will keep the plane in the air for up to five days at a time.
The passage is probably taken from _____________.

A.a postcard B.a newspaper C.a comic book D.an advertisement

The solar-powered plane ________________.

A.is big and heavy B.uses much energy
C.passed the first test D.will have a night flight after July

How long will it take the solar-powered plane to travel 140 km?

A.About a day and a night. B.About 5 days.
C.About 2 hours. D.About 90 minutes.

Which of the following is NOT mentioned(提到)in the passage?

A.During the 90-minute flight, the solar-powered plane reached a height of 1.6km.
B.The solar-powered plane is slower than a car and faster than a bike.
C.Maybe the solar-powered plane will fly with no fuel.
D.It took a long time to build the solar-powered plane.

The passage mainly talks about ___________________.

A.the solar-powered plane
B.the speed of the solar-powered plane
C.how to make the solar-powered plane
D.the world travel of the solar-powered plane

In Beijing, it's certainly popular to talk about living a low-carbon(低碳的)life. However, it's more easily said than done. But the Chinese capital city is ready to lead the way to a low-carbon city.
Xizhimen Station is one of the busiest subway stations in Beijing, because three lines meet at this point and many people need to get off if they want to change to another line. But passengens have to walk a long way if they want to move from one to anther.
A person said, “ it's difficult to change lines here. You need walk five to ten minutes.” Another said, “We would like to use this greener way of transportation, but it's just not convenient.”
And this is just one small part of the problem for the Beijing government(政府), if it wants to be a truly low-carbon city. Building a low-carbon city isn't an easy task and it will take a long time. I believe that once the plan is complete, more policies(政策) will come out to support(支持)this project. The government has made its plans for a low-carbon city known to the public in March. But people will see changes in several years.
Beijing will lead the way to a low-carbon city.
If pelple want to change lines at Xizhimen Station, they have to walk at least ten minutes.
Taking the subway is more helpful to the environment.
Transportation is the only problem for Beijing to become a low-carbon city.

Bad Hobbies
It’s easier to walk downhill than to climb uphill. So it is easier to fall into bad habits than into good ones. Bad habits do not form suddenly. They form little by little, so you don’t realize(意识到) their danger. Schoolboys and schoolgirls first pick up little bad habits at school or on the streets. When they cannot do their homework, they copy from their classmates. If they see bigger boys or girls smoking, they also want to learn to smoke. If they see their friends gambling(赌博),they want to gamble. When they get older, the habits become stronger and stronger. Then they can no longer give them up. From copying, they learn to steal; from gambling, they learn to cheat. At last, no one believes in them. It is very important to stop bad habits as soon as they begin!
My son is eight years old. He is now in Grade Three. When he was five, he started school. Every evening we have homework battles. Three afternoons a week he has activities after school. By the time we get home, homework is the last thing he feels like doing. The other two afternoon, he gets home early and we argue(争论) about whether he should do his homework straight away, or if he should have some time to rest and play first. When my son finally sits down to do his homework, he seems to want me there helping him all the time. I do want to help him, but I am sure that he can do it by himself. In fact, I often end up telling him the answers to most of his homework. He has fallen into the habit of depending on me to do this. He never wants to use his own brain.

My problem is my parents. They never stop going on about how I should keep my room tidy, keep my hair tidy and wear smart clothes. They even make me do the washing-up after dinner every night! None of my friends have got such terrible parents. What should I do?
Helen, USA
Why do you think you’re the only one with parents like that? All parents are the same. They want us to look like them. They don’t understand that fashion have changed in the past 30years!
Tom, Canada
Hi, Helen. I think you should do what your parents ask. They’re much older than you and you should respect them. It’s their house you live in and their money you spend!
Emily, New Zealand
Helen, why should your parents do all the washing-up? You should help around the house---it’s only fair. I don’t think you should change your appearance though. Teenagers should look like teenagers.
