Playing sports helps you in many different ways. Making Your Heart Stronger Your heart is a muscle（肌肉）that pumps（输送）blood through your body. Like any muscle, your heart gets stronger when you make it work hard. How do you know when your heart is working hard? You breathe faster. All sports make your heart work harder. Making Friends Playing a sport helps make new friends. If you play on a sports team at school, you can get to know students in other classes. If you play sports outside of school, you can get to know more kids in your community. Some of the people you meet might become new friends. Learning That Hard Work Pays off Playing sports is fun, but it is hard work, too. It helps you learn that hard work pays off. Leaning this important lesson will help you at school and throughout your life. Improving Self-Esteem（自尊心） Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself. People with good self-esteem have confidence and feel good about themselves. Scientists have discovered that playing sports helps most young people improve their self-esteem. 5.

Did the writer offer us good ways of exercising? D. Did the writer show us the importance of playing sports? C A long time ago, people were very different from the way we are now. Over time, the human body changes to adapt to(适应) a new way of life. Can we expect the human body to change in the future? For sure. The development of technology is changing how we live. What kind of changes can we expect? In the future, people will probably be even taller. Most of us now have much better food than people in the past and we grow more. However, our muscles will not be as strong as now because we won’t do a lot of physical work. We are already using our feet less, and our hands more. So we can expect that our legs will get shorter and our feet smaller, and at the same time, our fingers will get longer. And our fingers and our eyes will both get better because they’ll have to do more work together. It’s very possible that people will have four toes, not five. The little toe really isn’t needed any more, so it will probably disappear(消失) sometime in the future. Now, what about the mouth? It’ll get smaller, perhaps, because technology improvement will mean that we don’t need to talk so much, and also because our teeth will get smaller. Last but not least, people won’t have much hair on their bodies as now, as we don’t need it to keep ourselves warm any more. Will all these things happen? If so, when? These are questions no one can answer for sure. 9. The underlined sentence in paragraph 1 is to ________. A. give some advice B. dig the topic C. introduce the following parts D. show the writer’s worry 10 Why may people in the future be taller? ________ A. They will do less physical work. B. They will have better food to eat. C. Their legs will get longer and longer. D. Their muscles will be much stronger. 11. Which of the body parts might get smaller according to the passage? ________ ①feet ②hands ③fingers ④mouth A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④ 12. What’s the passage mainly about? ________ A. Future life. B. Body changing. C. Unknown questions. D. Technology improvement. D A Picture of My Own City How will your dream city look in 100 years’ time?

Since humans sent the first satellite (卫星) to space in the 1950s, scientists have been studying an important topic: how to grow food in space if humans will one day live there. A recent experiment (实验) at the Tiangong space station makes a big step forward. Chinese astronauts have successfully grown rice seedlings (幼苗) during the Shenzhou XIV mission. “The rice seedlings are growing very well,” said Zheng Huiqiong, the seedlings of the tall shoot rice variety have reached a height of 30 centimeters. The seedlings of the dwarf rice variety (矮秆水稻品种) have grown to 5 centimeters. While there have been other rice experiments in space, this one is the first of its kind to produce the complete life cycle of a plant—it begins with a seed and ends with a mature (成熟的) plant producing new seeds. Such food-growing experiments are not just for astronauts. They can also solve food problems on Earth. By sending seeds to space, we can create mutated (突变的) seeds, thanks to microgravity (微重力), lack of air and cosmic rays (宇宙射线). The seeds can then produce higher yields (产量) on earth. For more than 30 years, China has developed over 260 new types of seeds in space. They are planted every year in fields that cover tens of millions of hectares (公顷). According to Yao Tong, an engineer from Hainan Aerospace Engineering Breeding Research Center, 30 percent of strawberries sold in Beijing are “space strawberries”, and “space bananas” with a growth cycle shortened from 13 months to 9 months. 51.

Since humans sent the first satellite (卫星) to space in the 1950s, scientists have been studying an important topic: how to grow food in space if humans will one day live there. A recent experiment (实验) at the Tiangong space station makes a big step forward. Chinese astronauts have successfully grown rice seedlings (幼苗) during the Shenzhou XIV mission. “The rice seedlings are growing very well,” said Zheng Huiqiong, the seedlings of the tall shoot rice variety have reached a height of 30 centimeters. The seedlings of the dwarf rice variety (矮秆水稻品种) have grown to 5 centimeters. While there have been other rice experiments in space, this one is the first of its kind to produce the complete life cycle of a plant—it begins with a seed and ends with a mature (成熟的) plant producing new seeds. Such food-growing experiments are not just for astronauts. They can also solve food problems on Earth. By sending seeds to space, we can create mutated (突变的) seeds, thanks to microgravity (微重力), lack of air and cosmic rays (宇宙射线). The seeds can then produce higher yields (产量) on earth. For more than 30 years, China has developed over 260 new types of seeds in space. They are planted every year in fields that cover tens of millions of hectares (公顷) According to Yao Tong, an engineer from Hainan Aerospace Engineering Breeding Research Center, 30 percent of strawberries sold in Beijing are “space strawberries”, and “space bananas” with a growth cycle shortened from 13 months to 9 months. 51.
