25、Chengdu, a city in southwest China, is planning to launch a “man-made moon” that will light up the skies as far as 50 miles around.
The satellite set to deploy over Chengdu in 2020 is designed to be eight times as bright as the real moon, to create a “dusk-like light” over the area. Officials have released few details on the project.
It will help the moon to make Chengdu’s night skies brighter when launched in 2020, possibly working as a replacement to traditional streetlights. The man-made moon can be controlled to light up an area between 10 and 80 kilometers wide.
Chengdu’s man-made moon has already been met with doubt from skeptics who argue that the light will have adverse effects on animals and astronomical observation.
It’s not the first time humans have tried to launch a light-reflecting object into the sky, but in the past, such plans largely ended in failure. Last year, for example, a Russian team tried to deploy what was touted to become “the brightest object in the night sky, after the moon”.
【1】How far can the man-made moon light up at most?
A.10 kilometers.
B.50 kilometers.
C.80 kilometers.
D.100 kilometers.
【2】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.There were many man-made moons in the sky serving as streetlights.
B.Russia is the first country planning to send a man-made moon into the sky.
C.The man-made moon is a light-reflecting object serving as the moon.
D.There were many successful plans sending the man-made moon into the sky.
【3】What is the main idea of this passage?
A.Chengdu is going to launch a man-made moon.
B.Too much light in the night is bad for animals.
C.A big step in the space technology.
D.The man-made moon is much brighter than the real moon.

27、Many people like to eat out because they can eat quickly and the food is not expensive. Some families go to fast food restaurants. But in the past people went to diners. Do you want to know the story of the first American diner?
In 1872, a man named Walter Scott had the first “diner”. It was not really a diner. It was only a simple food cart(马车). People on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. The cart served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and a late night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Messer Jones built the first big enough diner to allow customers to come inside. However, they had no chairs to sit down. Three years later, people built diners with counters(柜台式长桌)and stools(凳子)and people sat down while they were eating.
Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The earliest menu which only included sandwiches and coffee became bigger. Soup and dishes were added to the menu, and a breakfast menu appeared, too. In addition, diners were no longer carts on wheels.
Diners today are usually buildings with large windows, shining counters and stools, tables and chairs, where people can eat all three meals.
