Inl970,an oxygen tank exploded(氧气罐燥炸)on the Apollo 1.3,turning the routine mission(常规任务)
to the moon into a fight for survival.The lives ofthe three astronauts were in great danger.
With the world watching,NASA engineers worked day and night,racing to find solutions to save the
astronauts.Different teams of experts pooled their knowledge to deal with each emergency.Up in space,the
astronauts also showed teamwork by staying calm and following instructions perfectly.In the end,the astronauts
returned to Earth safely.This mission later became known as a"successful.failure"
In the early 2000s,LEGO,one ofthe world's most beloved toy companies,nearly went out ofbusiness.To
save itself,it chose a new way:teamwork.Einployees ()from different departments worked closely to
improve production(产量,and fans were invited to share their ideas through the LEGO Ideas platform(平台).
This platform created many ofLEGO's most popular products,such as toy sets that are made from popular movies.
The teamwork spirit within and outside the company breathed-new life into LEGO,making it a strong and
successful brand once again.
At the turn of the 20th century,Wilbur Wright and Orville Wright made the human dream of flight come
true.Their journey to invent the first successful airplane was not the work of one talented person.Wilbur.and
Orville worked as a team.Wilbur had wide knowledge offlight theory ()while Orville was good at practical
engineering(实用工程学).This perfect partnership enabled them not only to experiment(实验)but also to
improve their designs quickly.With strong will and trust in each other,the Wright Brothers made the first
controlled,powered flight in 1903;totally changing the future oftransportation.
46.What problem did the Apollo 13 face during its mission?
A.The astronauts ran out offood and water.
B.It lost contact with the engineers on Earth.
CAn important part ofthe spaceship broke down.D.The mission was stopped before reaching the moon.
47.We-can replace the underlined word "pooled"in Para.2 with"
A.shared
B.taught
C.gained
D.tested
48.The fans ofLEGO helped the company by offering ideas for
A.making short movies
B.creating popular products
G.improving its productivity
D.building the LEGO Ideas platform
49.Why was the partnership ofthe Wright Brothers called "perfect"?
A.They argued less with each other.
B.They had the same interests and hobbies
C.They finished their work faster than others.
D.They teamed up really well and worked efficiently.
50.What do these three stories have in common?

English idioms are the shining treasure of the English language,deeply rooted in Western history,culture
and daily life.Their meanings are never as straightforward as individual words ()making them a key
and difficult point in English learning.56 Without a good knowledge of idioms,we may fail to fully
understand native.speakers'conversations.and Englisn reading materials.
Many English idioms are from ancient myths,literary works and traditional life experiences.They carry
hidden cultural meanings that can't be guessed exactly.57 For instance,"the ball is in someone's court"
doesn't refer to a sports game.It means that it is now someone-else's turn to take action or make a decision.In
daily life,we can use it when we wait for a friend to reply to an important message.Another common example is
"kill two birds with one stone",which means to achieve two goals at the same time with a single action.For
example,walking to school can help you kill two birds with one stone by keeping fit and saving time.
Idioms play a unique role in ily communication.They help people express complex ideas and emotions in
a brief and vivid way.58mstead of saying "I'm very busy",native speakers often say"I'm as busy as a
bee",which makes.the expression more vivid and impressive.
Some idioms have similar appearances but totally different meanings,while others can be used in
specific seenes only.For example,we use"break a leg"to wish someone good luek before:a performance;but it
can never be used to comfort a sick person.
To master English idioms effectively,we need to combine learning with practice.Don'tjust memorize their
meanings mechanically.60 Besides,we should pay attention to their usage scenarios and collocations
用场景与搭配),so as to avoid improper use in communication.Gradually,we can use idioms correctly and
freely.

A.-Learning-idioms well brings great convenience to our English study:
B.We should try to use them in real communication and English writing:
C.This is why we canit understand idioms just by their actual word meanings.
D.It's easy for English learners to.mix up:different idioms in use.
E.They make daily language.more lively and expressive than basic words.
F Understanding idioms well is the first step to learn English well.
