学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________
一、完形填空。
I was cooking the other day when a report came out announcing that NASA(美国国家航空航天局) was thinking about going back to manned space missions. Upon hearing this, I shouted like the 13-year-olds. Why was this 1 so important to me
It’s simple: I still want to be an astronaut although I have grown up. I remember one morning when I was about thirteen: I was sitting with my family when I came across one little article about NASA on the paper. It said that they were 2 the idea of carrying out a manned mission to Mars in 2018. “Hey Mum, would you let me go to Mars ” I asked, as if I were asking to sleep over at a friend’s house that night.
“Yeah, sure,” my mother replied not even looking up from the paper. I was 3 serious, though, and I didn’t think she realized she had just given me an agreement to go to space. There was just one problem for me and my astronaut 4 : I was really bad at maths. And I cried sadly, knowing no one would let me be an astronaut if I couldn’t solve for X or Y.
I remembered trying to find my maths teacher and 5 my astronaut plan. He told me I needed to consider other choices, but I didn’t have anything else: my plan was to become an astronaut, and then come back to Earth and write a best-selling book about my travels. My book would be adapted into a movie, and I’d play myself. I thought of this as the three A’s: astronaut, author and actress.
I never accepted that my dream was 6 . I’ve spent countless hours standing outside, staring up at the stars and wondering what’s out there. That’s why I got so 7 when NASA announced they were heading back into space. I still want to be an astronaut and I don’t think my dream is so out of 8 . Something more impossible has happened after all.

Students Explore Mars
Human beings have been curious about Mars since the planet was first discovered. For many years, scientists have been working toward ways to best explore the red planet.
A group of senior students from Beijing have shown great interest in Mars and started a project to explore it. Wang Taozhi, 17, the leading figure in this project, put forward a plan to develop a system that is expected to use AI to study pictures of common minerals(矿物) on Mars. It is also hoped to classify these minerals. “The challenge is to master knowledge about computer coding, AI and algorithms(算法) and how to put this knowledge into practice. We failed many times but we finally succeeded,” said Wang.
When Wang Taozhi was in Grade 7, he learned basic knowledge of C++,a programming language, in a computer technology course. He was interested in programming and spent hours a day studying it. Wang then joined the Maker Space of his school, a platform that encourages students to create something new with the help of modern technology. In the Maker Space, he learned more about robotics and coding, developing a software which helped teachers in class.
Wang also learned necessary information through other means in his spare time, including trustworthy journals and even online videos. “I read papers on minerals,” Wang said. “Also, I gained AI basics through some videos.”
To successfully finish the project, good teamwork is important. Wang Taozhi and his teammates You Zhibin and Zhang Beining had a hard time arranging their meetings since they had different class timetables and study plans.
To overcome this challenge, they carried out different tasks based on each person’s strengths, set a deadline and set up regular meetings. It’s hard to balance one’s studies and personal interests, but they have found a way to do it.
“Finishing the project was not easy, but it was an opportunity to help students become actively engaged students willing to solve problems instead of just being passive learners,” said Li Ning, the mentor(导师) of this project.
“In the beginning, I borrowed others’ ideas, but now I come up with my own ideas and have made them practical,” Wang said.
