Astronauts will have to take everything they need, including food, air and water. The room inside the spaceship is too limited to hold many things. So packing a spaceship is a huge challenge for a trip to Mars. Six astronauts on an eight-month trip to Mars will need at least 18,000 kilograms

of water for drinking and washing. They’ll also need water to protect themselves from space rays which can pass right through spaceship walls and harm astronauts’ living cells. But a layer of water placed around the ship can stop the harm. That’s a lot of water. And sending water into space is too expensive. It costs $33,000 to send one cup of water to Mars. The more you take, the more it costs. We have the technology to get to Mars, but the problem is that it’s too expensive. But Flynn, an engineer at NASA, thinks he has a way of solving the problem. Instead of building a heavy spaceship and packing it full of stuff (物料), why not use the stuff as part of the spaceship? Imagine a spaceship that blows up like a balloon. Inside, the walls have pockets like a big honeycomb (蜂巢). These hold lots of plastic bags filled with water, dried food and algae (水藻). All these make hard walls and great radiation (辐射) protection. And stopping radiation doesn’t influence the food or water itself—it’s safe to eat and drink. And what if the same water could be reused again and again? Flynn and his team call their packed-pocket idea Water Walls. Making oxygen and taking away CO2—the waste gas you breathe out—is another problem in space. “Water Walls will take away CO2 the same way it’s done here on our Earth—with living plants,” Flynn says. Living plants take in CO2 to make their food, and give off oxygen. “Plants are hard to grow in a spacecraft, so we use algae,” he says. Algae are tiny plants that live in water. The algae will live in bags in the walls too, fed by human waste and sunlight, eating up CO2 and making oxygen for the astronauts to breathe. Flynn thinks his onboard recycling system has many advantages. He hopes it will help make flying to Mars a reality very soon. 26. What does the underlined phrase “packing a spaceship” in paragraph 1 most probably mean? A. repairing things in a spaceship B. recycling things in a spaceship C. checking things in a spaceship D. putting things into a spaceship 27. What is the advantage of Flynn’s system?

A. Cost is saved. B. Travelling time is saved. C. Plastic bags are saved. D. Food is saved. 28. What is one purpose of Flynn’s idea of Water Walls? A. To prevent space rays during the space trip. B. To make the whole spaceship stronger. C. To control the temperature in the spaceship. D. To produce water in the spaceship. 29. Why are algae put in the plastic bags? A. To prevent water from being polluted. B. To serve as food for astronauts. C. To provide oxygen for astronauts. D. To help other plants grow in a spaceship. C When Singaporean Tong Weiqiang watched Hong Kong wuxia dramas more than 10 years ago, he was greatly impressed. He then pioneered a local movement to support hanfu, or traditional Chinese clothes, and started the Han Cultural Society of Singapore in 2012 to attract more fans. “Many people in our cultural society first learned about hanfu from these Chinese wuxia dramas,” he told China Daily. In recent years, with the increased popularity of Chinese culture through dramas and online literature, wuxia-related content has started to regain popularity with viewers all over the world, including those in Southeast Asia, According to China Daily, Wuxiaworld, a web novel site started by Chinese-American Lai Jingping in 2014, attracts millions of page views per day from users in more than 100 countries. One reason for its popularity is that wuxia works bring them fresh new experiences. The economies (经济) of many Southeast Asian countries are based on

agriculture. As ChinaDailymentioned, what really interests them is the different lifestyles of wuxia heroes they have never experienced. New thoughts and ideas in wuxia works also help it go a step further abroad. Unlike traditional wuxia, the modern form of wuxia which has gained popularity in Southeast Asia is a broader idea that includes xianxia and xuanhuan. But there’s one thing that never changes-its core (核心) spirit. Mixing the Chinese characters “wu” and “xia”, these works always keep the spirit of the Chinese heroes fighting against social injustice (不公正) and beating bad people, noted the Interact Kungfu website. “Although wuxia is a special part of Chinese culture, the core spirit of pursuing (追求) freedom and justice is generally accepted by people all over the world,” Lily Lee, president of You-Cloud which operates AppGrowing, told China Daily. 30. Why does the writer tell the story of Tong Weiqiang? A. To provide the background. B. To raise up the question. C. To lead into the main topic. D. To introduce the main character. 31. Which of the following is one reason for wuxia’s popularity? A. People’s wishes to change others’ lifestyles. B. The economic conditions of different countries. C. The differences between xianxia and xuanhuan. D. The acceptance of wuxia's core spirit across the world. 32. What is the best title of this article? A. A Wide World of Wuxia B. A Special Part of Wuxia C. The Core Spirit of Wuxia D. The New Meaning of Wuxia D Scientists who study happiness have evidence (证据) to show that being kind to others can result in happiness. Acts as simple as buying a cup of coffee for someone can lift a person’s mood, for example. Everyday life is full of chances for such actions, yet people do not always make the most of them.
