Do you want to be an astronaut in the future? Every year on April 24, it’s Space Day of China. It’s a day to celebrate the country’s growth in space exploration. The successful manned space missions (任务) are a big part of it. Ever since Yang Liwei made it to space in 2003, as many as over 20 Chinese astronauts have gone to space. Being an astronaut is cool but sometimes dangerous.
What problems do astronauts face?
In space, astronauts face many problems. There is little gravity there, which influences their bodies. Also, being away from family and friends and stuck in a tiny spaceship for a long time can make them feel sad or stressed out. What’s more, if something goes wrong on their mission all of a sudden, they have to work out how to fix it under huge pressure. That’s why astronauts have to be smart, strong and ready for any challenge before they can go to space.
How are astronauts trained?
To make sure that Chinese astronauts complete their missions and return to Earth safely. “Eight types, covering more than 200 subjects of training, are set.” Huang Weifen, chief designer of the astronaut system for China’s manned space project, told CCTV News. Apart from physical training, it also includes basic science knowledge and mock (模拟) missions. Before astronauts can go to space, they train like this for at least three and a half years.
One of the hardest parts of the training for astronauts is the underwater training. This helps them get ready for the weightless environment in space. Huang explained that astronauts wear diving suits (潜水服) that weigh more than 100 kilograms and stay underwater for six hours at a time. Moving around in the water with such a heavy suit is really tiring.
Huang said that one astronaut, Nie Haisheng, even lost 2 kilograms after one underwater training exercise.

Reading is fun! Besides for fun, we can also analyze (分析) texts to learn more from the texts and more about the texts. One way we can do this is by finding out the theme of the texts.
The theme of a text is the “big idea” that runs through the text, connecting the characters and events. It is what the writer wants to tell us through the story. Themes can be ideas like family, friendship, love and so on. But it may not be able to be included in just one word, it might be an idea such as “Friendship is important.” Usually the theme of a text isn’t told directly, make sure you know what the writer is saying. How can we find out the theme of a text? The following steps may help you.
Read through the whole text. Usually characters change as the story goes on, so the theme you get at the beginning might not be true at the end! For this reason, you need to read through the whole text first. There may also be more than one theme in a story.
Find out the clue. After reading the whole text, try to answer the following questions. What important events happened during the story? What was the problem? How did the problem get solved? How did the character(s) change? What did the character(s) learn? The answers may help you to get the clues.
Get the big idea. Read again for the writer’s purpose of the text and find out the answers to the following questions. Was most of the plot (情节) around friendship? Did the characters solve problems with their families? Did the main character learn the importance of friendship? If one of the answers is “yes”, you may get the big idea.
Check the big idea out. If you’ve found a “big idea”, go through the text to find the evidence that supports this idea in the text. You needn’t repeat every detail of the story — a few key examples will be fine.
Have you got the way to find out the theme of a text? Get your favorite book quickly and see if you can find the theme out!

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
On a hot sunny day, who would say no to a sweet, ice-cold ice cream? It would be an exciting treat to find out who invented ice cream.
The first kind of ice cream was made in China almost three thousand years ago. It was a mixture of snow, milk and rice. From China, the recipe (食谱) was spread to Europe. The Emperor Nero of Rome enjoyed a frozen dessert (甜点) that was a mixture of snow, honey and fruits.
In Asia, the Mughal Emperors required their horsemen to bring snow from the mountains to Delhi (Delhi can get very hot!). The ice was mixed with flavours (香料) and was then used in fruit sorbets (冰糕).
When the Italian Catherine de Medici married Henry II of France, she brought flavoured sorbet recipes to France. Her Italian cook created different flavour fruit ice for each day of the wedding celebrations.
Ice cream arrived in England from France. King Charles II, built an ice house in the centre of London and was the first British king who is known to have eaten ice cream. Until the 1800’s ice cream remained a delicious dessert enjoyed only by the rich.
Ice cream came to America from Europe. In 1832, White House cook Augustus Jackson found out how to put ice cream in cans to send to ice-cream stores. He was named the ‘Father of Ice Cream’.
Technological development made ice cream production possible. In 1843, the ice cream machine was spread to England and America. This was made from a wooden box filled with ice and salt.
Today there are so many different flavours of ice cream. You can name any flavour and there will be an ice cream of it. The most popular flavours are chocolate and strawberry.
Interesting FactThe first ‘refrigerators’ were created by mixing salt with ice. Mixing salt with ice reduces the freezing point. You can achieve temperatures lower than -14℃.

(2024·江苏无锡·一模)I once gave a lesson to a group of primary school students for a TV program. I suggested that we create small gardens.
First, I asked the students to look for their favorite place in the school. Once there, I let them try hard to empty their minds. Then I had each of them describe their experiences of nature in a small garden.
In a box of about one and a half by two feet, they could organize soil, stones, leaves and grass freely. Even as an active garden designer, I was impressed with their imagination. The gardens they made were really creative.
One child created “water” that flowed into a “lake”; another child put grass in a way to represent “wind”; and yet another child tried hard to create shade...These children were often busy doing their schoolwork. That was why they took great interest when they created their small gardens. They spent a wonderful time together with nature.
Try spending time with nature yourself. If you notice a stone lying on the ground, pick it up and hold it. When you see beautiful flowers by the side of the road, stop and enjoy the pleasant smell.
Then, inside your mind. Create your own small garden. It will relax you.

You might have a friend or a classmate who remembers every single detail. How can they make it? A good memory is often seen as something that comes naturally and a bad memory as something that cannot be changed. However, actually there are plenty of things that you can do to improve your memory.
Take an interest
We all have the same opinion that we can easily remember the things we are interested in and forget the ones that bore us. It’s not hard to explain why schoolboys remember football results without difficulty, but make a great effort to remember dates from history lessons! One way to “make” yourself more interested is to ask questions —the more, the better!
Organize things in groups
Researchers have found that information organized in groups can be easy to remember. You can use this by organizing the materials you are studying. Try grouping similar knowledge together, or make a mind map of textbook reading to help group the information. Then when you learn more about that subject, you understand that better. Be sure things are clear in your mind. If not, ask questions until you understand!
What’s more, when you’re learning new materials, take the time to think about the relationship between the present information and what you’ve already known. Then it helps you remember information.
Take physical exercise
Physical exercise is also important for your memory, because it increases your heart rate and sends more oxygen to your brain, and that makes your memory work better. Exercise also reduces stress which is very bad for the memory.
So the next time you're learning new information, you can use the methods above. I’m sure that you will improve your memory and get more out of it.

Nowadays, OpenAI company’s ChatGPT, Dall-E and Sora have been a hot topic all around the world. But perhaps most of us have never thought about what it takes to run such intelligent (智能的) products. One thing this technology depends on may get you surprised—plenty of water!
Why does a computer program need so much water? In fact, in order to have the ability to write like a human, an AI system must first study a large amount (数量) of text written by humans. In the process, it not only uses much electricity but also produces much heat. So, on hot days, computer engineers use water to keep the computers cool.
Microsoft has worked with OpenAI for years. In a recent report, Microsoft shared how much water was used from 2021 to 2022. The total amount of water used in cooling machines is enough to fill more than 2,500 Olympic-sized swimming pools. It is believed the training of AI systems leads to the big rise.
Usually, AI super-computing centers lie in places that are cool for most of the year. These centers can just use outside air to cool the computers. But in summer, the temperature goes to 30℃. The computer engineers have to use a large amount of water to cool all the machines.
ChatGPT also “drinks” water while chatting. Scientists have worked out the environmental costs of using AI products. For a conversation of 20 to 50 questions and answers, ChatGPT uses up a bottle of water, about 500ml. The exact amount of water used in chatting changes with the seasons.
Many people are unaware of the problem. If you don’t know how many resources ChatGPT uses, how can you help to save water? The next time you are amazed at how smart ChatGPT is, think about how much water it’s “drinking”. Why not reduce the time of talking to machines—to help save the Earth’s water resources!
How “thirsty” are AI systems?
Around the world, intelligent products are 46 heatedly. However, the fact that much water is used in running them may 47 many people.
The 48 for using much water
When an AI system learns to 49 like a man, it needs electricity and produces heat. As a result water is used to keep computers cool.
A recent report by Microsoft
From 2021 to 2022, the amount of the water used in cooling machines kept 50 . The training of the AI system is the cause of it.
The analysis (分析)
The amount of used water is
◇ connected with 51 AI super-computing centers are built.
◇affected by the high 52 of these places.
◇not 53 all year around and changes with seasons.
Advice
◆ Consider it as a 54 .
◆ Save Earth’s water resources by having more 55 with humans.
(2024·江苏无锡·一模)There is one thing in the world that’s smaller than your fingernail. But without it, we can’t use nearly all the electronics. It’s the microchip! It is one of the most important inventions in human history. How much do you know about microchips? Here are some basics for you to learn it.
What are microchips?
Not to be confused with potato chips, Microchips are very small electronic devices people use to store and deal with information. A microchip is a set of interconnected electronic components that are imprinted on a very small chip. As microchips have so many connected components, they are also called integrated circuits.
There are mainly two kinds of microchips: logic chips and memory chips. Logic chips are the “brains” of electronic devices—they deal with information to finish a task. Memory chips store information.
Application and importance
Microchips are in everything electrical from computers to cellphones, TVs, cameras, cars, airplanes, appliances and medical equipment. Microchips are also used in GPS tracking devices and identification cards and are used to record activities and information.
Microchips take and process digital information and make it usable right away. For example, a Central Processing Unit (CPU), or processor, is the main chip in a computer. It s responsible for carrying out all the computer’s tasks.
What are microchips made from?
The main ingredient for making microchips is silicon. It’s a chemical element that can be found in rocks, sand, clay and soil. Silicon is a semiconductor, meaning that its conductive properties can become stronger by mixing it with other ingredients. This makes it possible to turn an electrical current on or off.
The silicon used to make microchips mostly comes from silica sand, made of silicon dioxide. Helpfully, it’s everywhere! It’s the second most common element on Earth after oxygen.
How small can microchips be?
One microchip is smaller than a button on your shirt but it has billions of transistors (晶体管). So it’s easy to understand just how small the features on a chip need to be. Chip features are measured in nanometers (纳米). A nanometer is one billionth of a meter. The smaller the features in the patterns created, the more transistors can fit on a chip, and the more the chip can do.
A Brief 56 to Microchips
Without microchips, one of the most important inventions in history, almost all of our electronic products might not 57 .
Definition
·Small electronic devices are 58 to store and deal with information.
·Two kinds: logic and memory chips.
Application and importance
·They are in everything electrical to record activities and information.
·They process digital information and make users 59 to use it at once.
Size
·One microchip with billions of transistors is smaller than a button.
·The bigger the chip features created, the 60 transistors can fit on a chip.
(2024·江苏南京·一模)The twenty-first century is already turning out to be the century of modern technologies. The technological revolution (革命) that started after World War II is now developing more quickly. Computing and other technological development is beginning to reach into influence and take over nearly every part of our lives. The two main influences modern computing has had on our lives are in the areas of economics (经济学) and communications.
Technology has led to big changes in economic and business systems and operations (经营). Businesses now have to be using cloud services or machine learning or risk failure. As a result, every big company bases its operations on computing. For example, Coca Cola, Huawei and Tencent sell different products and services, yet they all share one basic feature—without modern computing services, their operations would break down. New technologies play an important role in economies. China and many other developing countries have large IT industries, which drive their economies. What’s more, developed countries, including Germany and the United States, are moving from an industrial-based economy to a computing and IT-based one.
The other important influence of technological change is in the way of communication. For example, in the past, people wrote letters or talked on fixed phones, which slowed down the communication process. Now they send e-mails and text messages, or chat using mobile phones. Instead of waiting weeks for a letter or spending time finding a fixed phone, we can communicate right away. New forms of communication are cheaper or free. As a result, now people who live thousands of kilometres away from each other can communicate as much as they want at any time.
In conclusion, computing and new technologies have had a great influence on our lives in many ways. And they have had the greatest influence in business and communication. In the future, if technology continues developing at such speed,our business practices and methods of communication will have even greater changes. It is already starting to bring changes to other parts of our lives, such as transportation and health.
What influence has technology had on our lives?

(23-24九年级下·江苏南京·阶段练习)Many of us have had this experience: we lie down in a bed other than our own, perhaps at a friend’s house or in a hotel room, and find it difficult to fall asleep. Is it because the bed is uncomfortable? Maybe, but perhaps there can be other reasons.
According to a new study published in Current Biology, a significant reason is what the scientists call “first night effect”. They believe that one side of the brain acts as a “night watch” to give us a warning about potential (潜在的) dangers. It forces us to stay awake on the first night in a new environment.
For the study, 35 young volunteers were told to sleep in a lab for several days. Meanwhile, researchers watched their brain activities.
According to the researchers, on their first night, the left brains were more active than the right brains and people had a hard time sleeping. However, left-brain activity reduced as days went by, falling even to the point of complete calm. In this process, the volunteers got an increasingly better sleep experience.
The findings suggest that the different rhythms (节奏) of the sides of the brain influence our sleep. When the two sides work differently, the balance between them is broken. Thus, the brain can’t relax and is sensitive to anything strange in the surroundings, just as it is in the daytime.
“At some level, the brain is continuing to analyze (分析) things, even though you don’t realize the analysis,” US professor Jerome Siegel told Smithsonian Magazine. “If something unusual happens—if a door opens or you hear a key in a lock—you can be alert (警惕的).” More surprisingly, this situation is similar to the way some animals sleep. Whales, dolphins, and many birds can sleep with half of their brain while the other half stays awake.
If you have ever had what you think is “first night effect”, researchers suggest that you bring your own pillow or sleep in a room similar to your bedroom next time you sleep away from home.
Why can’t you get to sleep?
Introduction
