17、, the crew of the third manned mission to the Moon faced an astronauts worst nightmare: an explosion on the spacecraft. Its what happened in the Oscar-winning film Apollo 13,but its also a true story.The lift-off of Apollo 13 took place on 11th April 1970. Two days into the mission, the three-man cr

18、ew were in big trouble. They had been carrying out routine checks when there was a loud bang. Warning lights were starting to flash. Looking out into space, they could see a trail of gas-the spacecraft was leaking oxygen. They sent out a short message to the scientists back on Earth: “Houston, weve

19、had a problem here.”At first，they thought that a meteor（流星）had hit them，but they later found out that a short circuit had caused an oxygen container to explode. Whatever the cause, they knew there was no time to lose. Their electricity supply in the command module（指令舱）depended on that oxygen and pre

20、tty soon they would run out of both.The only solution was to move into the lunar module-the section of the spacecraft that would have landed on the Moon. Now though, they were using it as a kind of lifeboat. With its own power supply, oxygen and water, the three men could survive in the lunar module

21、 and return to Earth. There was another problem though. In an enclosed space like a lunar module, the carbon dioxide the crew was breathing out was dangerous. The equipment to clear the air of carbon dioxide was only built for two people. Now it had to deal with three. Amazingly, the crew managed to

22、 build an adapter out of materials onboard to reduce the carbon dioxide to a safe level.There was one final hindrance. The lunar module wasnt strong enough to re-enter Earths atmosphere so the crew had to go back into the damaged command module. To everyones relief, the crew of Apollo 13 arrived saf

23、ely in the South Pacific Ocean on April 17th. Although the crew didnt land on the Moon, NASA still considered the mission a success.24.What was the astronauts first reaction to the explosion?A.They went out to land on the Moon.B.They informed scientists on Earth.C.They moved into the lunar module.D.

An Amazing AdventureD. Life-and-Death Drama in SpaceCIn the old days, when you had to drive to a movie theater or, to a

26、 video store to get some entertainment, it was easy to see how your actions could have an impact on the environment. You were hopping into your car, driving across town and coughing out emissions and using gas all the way.But now that were used to staying at home and streaming movies, we might get a

27、 little cocky. After all, we are just picking up our phones or maybe turning on the TV. Youre welcome. Mother Nature.Not so fast, says a recent report from the French-based Shit Project. Watching a half-hour show would lead to 3. 5 pounds of CO2 emissions. Thats like driving 3.9 miles. According to

28、Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video”, digital technologies are responsible for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions, and that energy use is increasing by 9% a year. Stored in data centers, videos are transferred to our terminals such as computers, smartphones, etc. via networks. All thes

29、e processes require electricity whose production consumes resources and usually involves CO2: emissions.In the European Union, the EURECA project lead scientist, Rabih Bashroush, calculated that 5 billion downloads and streams of the song Despacito consumed as much electricity as the countries of Ch

30、ad, Guinca-Bissau, Somalia, Sierra Leone and the Central African Republic used in a single year.Streaming is only expected to increase as we become more attached to our devices. Online video use is expected to account for 80% of all internet traffic by 2023 according to CISCO. By then, about 60% of

31、the worlds population will be online.Youre probably not going to give up your streaming services, but there are things you can do to help lessen the impact of your online use. Here are some tips:Disable autopay tor video on social media.Stream over Wi-Fi, not mobile networks.Watch on the smallest sc

35、eo autopay.C.By streaming over mobile networks.D.By watching movies on bigger screens.DLearning is so complex that there are many different psychological theories to explain how people learn. A psychologist named Albert Bandura suggested a social learning theory which shows that observation, imitati

36、on, and modeling play a primary role in this process.In Albert Banduras opinion, people can learn through observation. Observational learning doesnt even necessarily require watching another person join in an activity. We can also learn by reading, hearing, or watching the actions of characters in b

37、ooks and films. However, just observing someone elses actions isnt always enough for learning. Your own mental state also plays an important role in determining whether a behavior is learned or not. In addition, though in many cases, learning can be seen immediately when the new behavior is displaye

38、d, yet sometimes we can learn things even though that learning might not be immediately obvious, which means people can learn new information without showing new behaviors.Not all observed behaviors are effectively learned. Certain requirements need to be related to the observational learning proces

39、s. For example, you need to be paying attention. Also your memory is an important part of observational learning as you need to pull up information later and act on it during the process. Once youve paid attention to the model and kept the information, its time to actually perform the behavior you o

40、bserved. Further practice of the learned behavior leads to improvement. Finally, you have to be motivated to imitate the behavior that has been modeled.Social learning theory have many real-world applications. For example, researchers employ it to look into and understand ways that positive role mod

41、els can be used to encourage desirable behaviors. Besides, its also applied in the field of education, and today, both teachers and parents recognize how important it is to model appropriate behaviors.32.What can we infer about observational learning from paragraph 2?A. Its effects on a person tend

42、to be very obvious.B. Its effectiveness is determined by the mental state.C. It doesnt necessarily lead to a change in behavior.D. Its most useful means might be watching and learning.33.What does the underlined word it in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Model.B. Information.C. Memory. D. Observational lear

43、ning.34.What might NOT be required when performing observational learning?A. Trying to be focused. B. Trying to be imaginative.C. Looking for a motivator. D. Editing and storing information.35.What can we learn about the social learning theory according to the text?A. It is of practical use.B.It rem

45、en giant steps to explore this natural satellite floating in space, but despite it being out of reach for most of us,36.The Moon, obviously, provides moonlight. A full moon, seen roughly once a month, can light up our way on an otherwise dark night. But while this lunar light can be impressive to lo

46、ok at, 37.One study showed that during or around the full moon, those studied spent less time in deep sleep, slept for less time and reported having poorer sleep. Despite sleeping in a dark room not exposed to moonlight.38.One study suggested animals are more likely to bite us during a full moon. An

47、d many moons ago, it was thought the Moon induced lunacy-the word derives from the Latin word lunatizes, meaning moonstruck, and evolved from the idea that celestial changes could cause periods of insanity.39.They will avoid a full moon at all costs because, although the added moisture in the soil a

48、t this time may give a fuller and juicier grape, the additional water is thought to dilute the taste of the fruit, which results in a less successful vintage.The Moon might affect our behaviour too. Writing about this for BBC Future, Claudia Hammond explains one interesting theory. Just as the Moons

49、 gravitational pull affects the tides, it exerts its influence on the water in our bodies. But she points out “the Moon is smaller than the Earth, so its gravitational pull is correspondingly less powerful. Whats more, it exerts the same force on us regardless of whether its new or full.” 40 . So, l
