21、Chinese astronauts sent back a science lesson from the country’s under construction space station. The lesson focused on physics, aiming to illustrate how the weightless environment affects buoyancy (浮力), the movement of objects and optics (光学).
Students from five cities asked the astronauts about living conditions in space and were treated to a virtual tour of the station. Wang Yaping, the only woman aboard the station, served as the main instructor, while Ye Guangfu assisted and commander-in-chief Zhai Zhigang worked the camera.
The three arrived at the station in October, 2021 for about a six-month stay, mainly aimed to prepare the main Tianhe module (舱) for the arrival of two additional modules named Mengtian and Wentian ahead of completion by the end of 2022. The crew is assessing living conditions in the Tianhe module and conducting experiments in space medicine and other areas.
Wang became the first Chinese woman to conduct a spacewalk when she and Zhai spent six hours outside the module fixing equipment and carrying out tests alongside the station’s robotic service arm.
The mission of Shenzhou-13 is China’s longest one since it first put a human in space in 2003, becoming only the third county to do so after Russia and the US. China has also pushed ahead with unmanned missions, and is lunar exploration program generated media buzz when its Yutu 2 rover sent back pictures of what was described by some as a “mystery hut”, but most likely only was a rock of some sort. The rover is the first to be placed on the little-explored far side of the moon, while China’s Chang’e 5 probe returned lunar rocks to Earth for the first time since the 1970s. A Chinese rover, meanwhile, is searching for evidence of life on Mars.

22、There are apps for almost everything. Here are some of the best free apps that are well received by smartphone users.
StorySign
StorySign is designed to help deaf children learn to read. With a book in hand, just point your phone’s camera at the page and an animated character in StorySign will read the page in sign language. And children will both enjoy the books and learn to read in the process. Even in its limited form, StorySign is well worth trying if you have a deaf child young enough to appreciate it, but we expect this app will keep getting better as its library grows.
PlantNet
Wherever you are, chances are there are hundreds of different plant species within walking distance, and most of us have no idea what all but the most common are called. PlantNet aims to make identifying them easier — simply take a photo and the app will attempt to identify what kind of plant you’re seeing.
Google Photos
Google Photos stands out among hundreds of photo apps, as it gives you unlimited storage for photos and videos. But with basic editing tools and the ability to make albums, it’s more than just photo and video storage. It aims to be your first and last stop after taking a picture. To achieve that, it will need a few more steps, but it’s well on its way.
Soon
Soon is an app that lets you create lists of books you want to read, movies you want to watch, restaurants you want to try and more. You can select from a number of categories, including games, shops, bars, museums and TV shows and then make a list of the ones that interest you. It’s a great app for anyone struggling to remember the things they want to watch, visit, read, play and listen to.
【1】Who is StorySign mainly intended for?
A.Any child fond of stories.
B.Children with hearing loss.
C.Any child who enjoys reading.
D.Children interested in sign language.
【2】What do Google Photos and StorySign share?

C.They both offer unlimited storage.
D.They both focus on photos and videos.
【3】What can we learn about the apps from the text?
A.Users can learn to write and talk through StorySign.
B.Google Photos can only be used to store data.
C.PlantNet helps identify and plant or animal.
D.Soon is especially suitable for forgetful people.
23、Different responses to “Person of the Year” (2020) in America
Despite all the tragedy and pain that COVID 19 has caused and for which it will be remembered, we must also admit with some irony that without the virus, Donald Trump would very likely be President of the U. S. for the next four years. The old saying that not all bad comes to hurt us proved once again to be true. Biden and Harris alone will not be the cure for the disasters of the past Administration, but at least they are a starting point for a brighter future.
Alberto Vezzali,
GUASTALLA, ITALY
This was Time’s opportunity to honor, recognize and thank the heroes on the front line. Given their strength of character and insight on the human condition, Biden and Harris would have been the first to support naming frontline workers as Person of the Year.
S. Jeffrey Bastable,
FAYETTEVILLE, N. Y.
It is incomprehensible that you did not select as Person of the Year the tens of thousands of health care workers who went into work each day and put their lives at risk to take care of COVID-19 patients. They were the firemen running into the burning building to save others, and the policemen running toward the gunfire. Many of them fell ill, and indeed, some died.
Louis Shepard,
NEW ORLEANS
“Person” is singular. When Trump was named Person of the Year last year, it wasn’t a Trump-Pence cover. Is this just a subtle reminder to the American people that Harris is the real person in charge?
Alan Lantz,
BELLA VISTA, ARK.
Everyone hopes Biden and Harris can do better than their predecessors did, but unfortunately, naming them Person of the Year is a politicized decision, and I am very sad about that.
Paolo Grassi,
CONCOREZZO, ITALY
【1】Who were chosen as “Person of the Year” in 2020 in America?
A.Biden and Harris.
B.Trump and Pence.
C.Obama and Biden.
D.Harris and Trump.
【2】What is Alan Lantz’s attitude to the choice of 2020?
A.supportive.
B.neutral.
C.indifferent.
D.doubtful.
【3】Who shares Louis Shephard’s opinion on the right choice of “Person of the Year”?
A.Alberto Vezzali.
B.S. Jeffrey Bastable.
C.Alan Lantz.
D.Paolo Grassi.
24、Crossing the pedestrian bridge that connects our school to its surrounding neighborhood reminds us that there's more to Rochester than just our school. 【1】 By staying on campus all the time, we limit ourselves to just feeling like students and not people. Here's a list of things we can do around Rochester whenever we see it again.
【2】 It's a big, wide open produce market that happens every Saturday on Union Street. They sell flowers, vegetables, fruits, and clothing, and there are a few restaurants and coffee shops along the alleyway. Often, they have live music, and once I watched a friend play their saxophone there in front of the grape stand.
Study somewhere else besides school. Go to a coffee shop, or one of the public libraries. I like the music library at Eastman, and the coffee shop across the street, Java's. Rochester is full of cafes and spots to sit and study. 【3】
Go to a concert, if you're into that. The Little Theater has free live music every single night, and there's a variety of other bars and music halls that bring in local artists. Most venues offer shows for less than $10. 【4】 That's my favorite. Those guys are crazy, and watching them play their instruments is like being transported into a strange, shimmering world of classical music.
Go for more walks. When you're stuck, listen to music and roam around our campus. Sit under a tree and look at all the people walking by. Or take one of the shuttles that stop in front of the library to a new neighborhood, like the South Wedge, and float in and out of the small businesses along the street. Or, if you know somebody with a car, go to Letchworth and see the waterfalls. 【5】
A.Go to the Live Music.
B.Go to the Public Market.
C.But how often do we cross that bridge?
D.No matter what it is, going outside always helps.
E.If you can focus outside of our own library, do it.
F.Additionally, all student concerts at Eastman are free for students at our school.
G.It's no secret that our college campus, like the majority of campuses, is a bubble.

26、阅读下面短文, 根据其内容写一篇60字左右的内容概要。
Over the past few years, there has been a big increase in the number of people sharing information online. In this article, we will learn about some positive reasons for people to share information online.
94% of those surveyed by The New York Times said they put a lot of thought into how the content they are sharing will be beneficial to others. We often share information with our friends in the office or at home to educate, entertain, or pleasantly surprise them. This is also true while sharing information online. If you look at the Facebook wall posts of your friends, you will realize that most of their updates are usually famous quotes(引述), entertaining videos, humorous images, funny jokes, etc.
A lot of people share information online to picture their true self to the outside world. Some people, especially those who are shy and not comfortable talking about their areas of interest in the presence of others, find it extremely convenient to share that information online with others.
According to the study, 78% of the people said they shared information online because it helps them develop better relationships. Today, people are so busy that they do not have the time to meet each other personally. A lot of people now “meet” each other online, rather than in places like restaurants and pubs.
Lastly, when we share our thoughts online, we are actively communicating with a large number of people who are a part of the World Wide Web. Sharing information will affect the viewpoint of others, or add to their understanding about the world.
