Shuttlecock kicking is a traditional sport in China and other East Asian countries. In this sport, people use their feet to keep a small lightweight shuttlecock flying in the air. For thousands of years, people have played it for fun and to keep healthy. Nowadays, this traditional activity has also become a popular competitive sport in many sports events.
This sport first appeared in ancient China, and people called it “jianzi”. In the past, kicking shuttlecock was more than just a physical game. It allowed people of all ages to communicate and make friends with each other.

Some players love creative and free playing styles, while others follow fixed game rules. In team games, players often stand in a circle and pass the shuttlecock to each other.

Besides fun, it is also a wonderful sport that helps people improve body balance, quickness and physical endurance (忍耐). It can make our hearts stronger.

“We’re not sure. They seem to be metal (金属) objects that move along certain roads. They send gases, make noise and keep hitting into each other. There are so many of these roads and so many metal objects that it is impossible to land a flying plane without being hit.”
“If so, won’t this slow the progress of the flying plane program for several years ”
“Yes, but we will keep working as long as we get plenty of money.”
“Prof. Zog, why are we spending so much money to land a flying plane on Earth when there is no life there ”

四、任务型阅读
A
When I was a boy of twelve, there was an old watchmaker who made watches in his house. Every day, you would see him making watches at his table in his front window. He made only a few watches every year because he made every piece himself. He was Mr. Steinmach and was not very friendly.
One day, some kids and I were playing baseball, and I hit a ball right through his front window where he worked. He came running from his house screaming that the watch he was working on was smashed (砸碎)! I was too scared to say that it was I who did it.
Months passed. Then one day, when I was walking by his house, the baseball I had hit through his window rolled by my feet. “There’s your ball back!” I heard him call. “Keep it away from my house! You boys are lucky. I was able to fix the watch.” I felt very sorry and walked up to him and said “Mr. Steinmach, it was me. I hit that ball through your window.” “Are you interested in paying for it ” he asked. I was shocked. I could never repay the price of his watches. “Not in money, but in work,” he said. I agreed.
From that day on, I volunteered at his shop. He taught me how to make watches. Within a couple of years, I was working for him after school. I was learning to be a watchmaker.
That was 60 years ago. Now, I’m the old watchmaker. When the young kids play baseball, I do get a little nervous. But I go out there and play with them. I always think of kind and wise Mr. Steinmach and the lessons he taught me. I really thank him.

Allison is a friend of mine who loves science. She loves to prove things using simple experiments (实验).
One day she said to me, “If you fill a glass with water and put a piece of paper on top, and then turn the glass over, what will happen ”
“You’ll get the floor wet.” I answered. “No. The water will stay in the glass,” she said. I told her to prove it.
Allison loved the challenge. She had a glass filled with water, and a four-by-six-inch sheet of paper. She placed the paper on top of the glass and pressed down hard on the paper. Next, she put one hand on the paper and turned the glass over.
I stood watching with a smile on my face. Surely all the water would spill (溢出) onto the floor. “Are you afraid to move your hand ” I asked with a smug (得意) look. She didn’t answer. Suddenly, she took her hand away. I quickly stepped back, thinking my feet would get wet when the water rushed out from the glass. But nothing happened! Not a drop of water spilled from the overturned glass.
Allison smiled. “See,” she said, “this little paper holds all the water back. Do you believe me now ” I should have known she would be right. “You can see that the paper holds the water back, but you can’t see why,” Allison continued. “It’s air pressure. It’s all around us, but we can’t see it. We can only see its effects. Air pressure on the paper holds it in place. It is stronger than the gravity (重力) that is trying to force the water out.”
As the expression goes, “Seeing is believing.” Now, I have to believe there is air pressure. It’s something we can’t see, but it’s there.
46. What things did Allison prepare before doing the experiment
________________________________________________________________
47. Why did the writer ask with a smug look
________________________________________________________________
48. What keeps the water in the glass in the experiment
________________________________________________________________
49. 根据文本信息填空。（每空1词）
My friend Allison usually ___49___ simple experiments to prove things. Once she filled a glass with water and put a piece of paper on top, and then turned the glass over. When she took her hand away, I quickly stepped back to ___50___ getting wet. But to my surprise, the paper ___51___ the water back in the end. It proved we should ___52___ our eyes.
