B The word“encyclopaedia(百科全书)”comes from a Greek word that means "general education".We use encyclopaedias to find information about different subjects.Nowadays,most people use encyclopaedias online, but some still prefer to use paper encyclopaedias.They often come in several volumes(卷), China has a long history of creating encyclopaedias.One of the first encyclopaedias was the Huanglan(i.e.the Imperial Anthology).It was created around 220 CE. 英语试卷第4页(共12页) Another important encyclopaedia was the Yongle Dadian(i.e.the Yongle Encyclopaedia).The Yongle Dadian was completed in 1408 and had over 11,000 volumes.It is probably the largest encyclopaedia in history.Both the Huanglan and Yongle Dadian included important pieces of writing.These entries()covered subjects like history,art and science. Encyclopaedias in other parts of the world also go back a long way in history.The earliest known encyclopaedias in Europe were written by the Greeks in the 4th century BCE.They were similar to early Chinese encyclopaedias because they included works by different scholars() Centuries later,the editors of the first modern encyclopaedias,like the Encyclopaedia Britannica, organized the entries in alphabetical(按字母顺序的)order.People could use the first letter of a word to find a subject quickly and easily.

That's where space-based animal research comes in.On Oct 31,China's Shenzhou XXI mission launched()with four mice aboard.This is the first time China has sent mice into space for experiments,following earlier missions with zebrafish and fruit flies,said Xinhua.After the mice return with the Shenzhou XX spaceship,scientists will further study how space influences their bodies. Not just any mouse can become an "astronaut".According to China Daily,these mice were chosen for their excellent performance during 60 days of training.They passed physical tests,like riding an“exercise bike'”,and cognitive(队知的)tests,.such as solving mazes((迷宫). Mice are ideal for space research because they share genetic()similarities with humans, need little space and reproduce quickly,Huang Kun from the Chinese Academy of Sciences told 英语试卷第5页(共12页) Xinhua.Also,given their short lifespans()six months in space for a mouse is like over 10 years for a human.This allows scientists to predict long-term space effects on humans in just months, rather than years. Internationally,sending animals to space began in the late 1940s to see if any life could survive the high rocket speeds or the weightlessness and radiation in space,said CBC News.Today,studies go beyond survival."The animal work is helping us understand how to live a better life in space, making it a healthier reality,as well as helping us study a few diseases that affect us down on Earth," a scientist said. For example,space is ideal for studying osteoporosis(骨质疏松),as microgravity causes bone loss 12 times faster than on Earth,said UCLA Health.In 2017,a study with 40 mice on the International Space Station found a treatment that slowed bone loss and helped new bones grow, offering hope for keeping humans healthy both on Earth and in space. Moreover,when we live on other planets,we can't live without animals.Besides being friends, animals help keep ecosystems stable(稳定的)by pollinating(授粉)plants,maintaining food chains and more. 32.How long did the space mouse"astronauts"receive training before the launch? A.For half a month. B.For two months. C.For six months. D.For over 10 years. 33.Why are mice ideal for space research? 1They take up very little space. 2They have similar genes to humans. 3 They can live for over 10 years in space. 4They can produce new generations quickly. A.①③④ B.②③④ C.①②④ D.①②③ 4.How has the purpose of sending animals to space changed over time? A.From testing survival to learning to live better in space. B.From studying diseases to checking rocket speed safety. C.From improving life in space to finding new test animals. D.From training animals to choosing those with good qualities. 35.What is the writer's view on space-based animal research? A.It mainly helps scientists learn how animals survive in space,not humans. B.It is too early to understand its real value,for further studies are necessary. C.It is valuable for improving human health and supporting future life in space. D.It is a doubtful practice,so much more time is still needed to get clear results. D The emperor's birthday was coming up,and he was celebrating with a big party!
