Once Wilhelm K. Roentgen and several other scientists were experimenting with passing electric currents through certain gases in a special glass tube from which the air had been taken away. Then one day Roentgen noticed that though the tube was covered with black paper， some strange kinds of radiation （輻射） were coming through and making a screen nearby give out light. Roentgen could see nothing out of the tube. But then he discovered that if he put the screen in the next room on the other side of the closed door， the rays still seemed to affect it. The screen showed that the rays could pass not only through the black paper but also through wood.

The next thing he found out was that if he put his hands between the rays and a photographic plate， the rays would print a shadow of the bone framework of his hands on the plate. In fact， the rays could pass as easily through the fleshy （肉的） part of his hand as through the black paper， but hardly at all through the bone. So Roentgen made the first X-ray picture of a hand showing just how the bones in the hand fitted together.

Roentgen called these unknown rays X-rays， but other scientists called them Roentgen rays in honor of the man who first found them.

A. Air. B. Water. C. Gases. D. Paper.

Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart. They will in a lifetime， push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.

Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers， and would help to attract more business.

On June 4， 1937， Goldmans first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldnt wait to see them using his invention.

But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look， but hardly anybody would give them a try.

After a while， Goldman decided to ask customers why they werent using his carts. “Dont you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket？” one shopper replied.

But Goldman wasnt beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end， Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping. Seeing this， the real customers gradually began copying the phony （假的） customers.

As Goldman had hoped， the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more.

Todays shopping carts are five times larger than Goldmans original model. Perhaps thats one reason why Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—the coming of the shopping cart.

5. What does the underlined part “chrome-plated contraptions” in Paragraph 1 refer to？

A. Suitcases. B. Shopping carts.

C. Baskets. D. Private cars.

6. What was the purpose of Goldmans invention？

A. To make shopping easier and attract more business.

B. To help the old do shopping easily in his market.

C. To reduce the burden of his employees work.

D. To prove him to be a good inventor.

7. Why did Goldman hire a group of people to push carts around his market？

A. To keep the groceries from being stolen.

B. To attract people to buy things in his market.

C. To make his market different from the others.

D. To encourage people to use his shopping carts.

8. What can we infer from the last paragraph about Goldman？

A. He becomes very famous because of his invention.

B. His invention has had a great effect on food industry.

C. His invention gives a great idea to todays shopping carts.

D. Supermarket business has benefited a lot from his invention.

Many scientists first determined they loved science in the classroom. Here are some of them that spend their lives spreading their love of science.

Maria Christoforaki

Christoforaki is a high school student at the Lyceum of Gazi in Greece. In June 2017， she was part of a team from her school that competed in the European CanSat Competition. This is a contest in which teams build models of satellites （衛(wèi)星）. Much creativity is required—and Christoforaki says that is the best part.

Kelly Knight

Knight is a forensic （法醫(yī)的） scientist—someone who uses scientific techniques to help solve crimes. Shes a professor at George Mason University in Fairfax， Virginia. But thats not all she does. “Im also a Zumba instructor and I have my motorcycle license，” she says. Shes still working on getting a motorcycle， though.

Sara MacSorley

MacSorley has a degree in science， who doesnt work in a laboratory but is now the director of the Green Street Teaching and Learning Center at Wesleyan University in Middletown， Connecticut. She spends her time promoting education. MacSorley still loves science. Shes now working on a coloring book about women in science， technology， engineering and math.

Erin Winick

Winick was a student in mechanical engineering at the University of Florida in Gainesville. As an engineer， she also runs her own company， Sci Chic， making science and engineering-inspired jewelry （珠寶）. Her science creativity also goes beyond jewelry. “I love making and wearing space and science-inspired clothing，” she says.

Most of the time， people wear hats to protect themselves from harsh weather conditions. Hats are also worn to show politeness and as signs of social position. But nowadays， hats， especially womens hats， are much more than that. More exactly， hats have changed into fashion and style symbols by many movie stars. Whats more， people now consider many different features when choosing even a simple hat. Many designers point out that， when choosing the right hat， its important to consider the color of your skin as well as your hair， your height， and the shape of your face.

First of all， the color of the hat should match the color of your skin and hair. For instance， black hats should be avoided if you are dark skinned. If a purple hat is placed on top of red hair， one will look as attractive as a summer flower. Second， the height of the hat is also an important point. Tall women should not go for hats with tall crowns， just as short women should choose hats with upturned brims （帽沿） to give the look of height. Third， and most importantly， the shape of the face decides the kind of hat one should pick. A small， gentle hat that fits the head looks good on a small face. However， women with big， round faces should choose a different style.

As the saying goes， “Fine feathers make fine birds.” A good hat can not only help your dress but also support your features， so why not choose the best possible one next time you want to be in public？

5.What does the underlined word “harsh” in Paragraph 1

probably mean？

A. Good. B. Poor. C. Strange. D. Different.

6. According to the article， what kind of women would look

most attractive？

A. A big-faced woman who wears a small， nice hat.

B. A short red-haired woman who wears a purple hat.

C. A small dark-skinned woman who wears a black hat.

D. A tall woman who wears a hat with a huge upturned brim.

7. What does the last paragraph suggest？

A. Hats can make you look much taller.

B. Hats are not as important as character.

C. Hats can help you look better in public.

D. Hats are worn on the head to keep warm.

8. What can be the best title for the text？

A. How to Design a Nice Hat

B. How to Choose a Proper Hat

C. How to Improve Your Features

D. How to Show Your Social Position

Choosing the Right Path to Be a “Better” Person

Life is a constant exercise in self-improvement. In the rush to achieve， the idea of being “better” can become lost sometimes. You may always wonder how to improve yourself and fulfill your dreams in an easier way. 1

Explore your talents.

Everybody has some outstanding skills or interests. So its often necessary to be patient and try many things before you find one that suits you.

2 For example， people loving adventure may not be interested in the quiet chess club， but someone who enjoys other quiet activities might be. Determining who you enjoy being around may help you know what youll enjoy.

3

No matter how much money you make， you will not be happy if you spend your entire life doing something you hate. Its important to at least devote some of your time to what makes you happy.

If youre particularly unhappy at your job， consider why. 4 If you feel your job isnt meaningful， or isnt in line with your values， consider finding another job.

Experience something new.

Research has shown that when were in our comfort zone， we arent as productive as we are when we step just beyond it. 5 Its important to have new experiences and interactions with others， even when those are a little scary. Doing so can help you achieve more.

A. Do what you love.

B. Here are some tips for you.

C. Register in a class youre interested in.

D. Humans adapt very quickly to positive events.

E. Its possible that some changes may change your feeling.

F. Similar types of people may be attracted to the same activities.

aspect of your life.

In recent years scientists have become very concerned about the greenhouse effect. There are gases in the Earths atmosphere what act like the glass in a greenhouse. They let the sunlight in， or they dont let the suns heat out. Greenhouse gases came from burning coals and oil using by industries， cars， and trucks. These gases are increasing. Most scientists are worried about that as these gases increase， the Earth will get too warmly. This condition is calling global warming. If the Earth does grow warmer， the ice from North and South Poles will begin to melt. Then our oceans will spill over low-lying coastal area. World leaders is trying to find ways to reduce greenhouse gases.

Science Hero： Jules Verne

科學(xué)英雄：儒勒·凡爾納

儒勒·凡爾納（Jules Verne，1828年2月8日—1905年3月24日），法國(guó)小說(shuō)家、博物學(xué)家，現(xiàn)代科幻小說(shuō)的重要開(kāi)創(chuàng)者之一。他一生寫(xiě)了六十多部科幻小說(shuō)，總題為《在已知和未知的世界漫游》。他因其大量著作和突出貢獻(xiàn)，被譽(yù)為“科幻小說(shuō)之父”。

Thats right the time for the Science Hero Award， where we honor a particular man or woman from history who made a contribution to science. Todays Science Hero， though， wasnt a scientist at all， but a science fiction writer. In fact， he was one of the pioneers of the genre of science fiction.

Jules Verne is our hero. Jules Verne was born in France in 1828 and originally studied to be a lawyer. But he was fascinated with the exploration of nature and the world. Also， he loved writing. In his writing he was able to bring scientific ideas to a general audience. If he were alive today， hed probably be writing for us.

Jules Verne also wanted to challenge people to think about new things that science could bring them. His stories were full of fantastic machines， but they were always things that could in principle be constructed. Because of this combination of knowledge and imagination， he was able to anticipate many things that now actually exist.

For example， you may know that in his novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea， Verne imagined an enclosed boat that could travel underwater—what we now call a submarine. But did you know that on board his submarine he put another imaginary device， the electric stove？ Or that he was one of the first to suggest putting people inside a giant bullet and firing it at the moon？ Thats not quite how we got there， but the principle is much the same.

那正好是頒科學(xué)英雄獎(jiǎng)的時(shí)間，我們以此紀(jì)念那些在歷史上為科學(xué)做出貢獻(xiàn)的個(gè)人。然而今天的科學(xué)英雄根本不是科學(xué)家，而是一位科幻小說(shuō)作者。事實(shí)上，他是該體裁的先驅(qū)之一。

儒勒·凡爾納是我們的英雄。他于1828年出生在法國(guó)，起初他是學(xué)習(xí)法律的。但他對(duì)探索自然和世界十分著迷，而且他喜歡寫(xiě)作。在他的作品中，他能將科學(xué)概念帶給讀者。如果他還活著，他很可能還在為我們創(chuàng)作。

儒勒·凡爾納也想挑戰(zhàn)人們?nèi)ニ伎伎茖W(xué)可能帶給他們的新事物。他的故事中充滿(mǎn)奇妙的機(jī)器，但都總是理論上可以創(chuàng)造出來(lái)的東西。由于知識(shí)和想象力的結(jié)合，他預(yù)見(jiàn)了很多現(xiàn)在確實(shí)存在的事物。

比如，在凡爾納的《海底兩萬(wàn)里》中，你可能知道他設(shè)想了一艘可以在海底穿梭的船——我們現(xiàn)在稱(chēng)之為潛水艇。但你知道在其潛水艇上，他放置了另一件想象的工具——電爐嗎？或者說(shuō)他是第一個(gè)建議把人放在巨型炮彈里，瞄準(zhǔn)月球發(fā)射的人之一嗎？雖然我們并不是那樣登上月球的，但理論上大致相同。
