apartmentit seemed like an easy solution to me. karens reply to this was: “i will look for another apartment when i come back from vacation.”sam hated his job. he was tired of getting up in the morning. he hated the work he was doing and it started to take a toll on him. he had a love for photography and was currently taking a twoyear course to get his certificate. every night he complained

more time to finish my course. when i finish my course i will start a business.”sarah had saved all her life and now was retired and living comfortably. the house she bought had a dishwasher in it;

travelling into space for more than 40 years. even today though, very few people get the chance to be an astronaut, about 30 per year. this is mainly because of the expense. it costs millions of yuan to train and send astronauts into space. very few countries can afford this.this is why american businessman dennis tito paid 20 000 000 us dollars to the russian space agency to go into space. he visited the international space station. his trip, making him the first ever space tourist, took eight days in total. he spent most of his time taking photos, looking at earth and listening to music on his onceinalifetime trip.after landing safely back on earth, mr tito thought the trip was worth the money. the only difficulty he had was walking but this is normal for anyone whos been in zero gravity.some people, especially in the american space agency, argue that you must be professional (专业的) to go into space. they worry about the safety of other astronauts. however, mr tito received training before he left. he also helped to prepare food for the others while in space. they told him what to do and where he was allowed to go.a survey carried out soon after tito landed showed that 75% of americans supported space tourism. some people are bored of all the places on earth. they are looking for a new adventure and space is the place.the money mr tito gave the russians paid for 20% of their annual budge (预算). if we want to see men on mars and other planets, we may need rich people like mr tito to help us pay for it. the russians have more rich people who want to become space tourists. they should take them.28how many people have flown in space?a. about 30. b. more than 1 200.c. thousands. d. about 12 000.29why did the russians want dennis tito to go into space?a. they wanted to work with an american.b. they wanted him to have a onceinalifetime trip.c. they wanted him to take photos of earth.d. they wanted his money.30what were the differences between mr tito and the other astronauts?a. none.b. only tito was allowed to cook.c. tito couldnt go everywhere on the space station.d. tito received training before he flew in space.31what does the writer think about dennis tito?a. he helped russia keep going into space.b. he was not a good astronaut.c. he couldnt help the russians much.d. he shouldnt be allowed into space again.答案与解析：28解析：推理计算题。第一段讲到，人类遨游太空已40多年了，即使到了今天也很少有人有机会成为每年大约30名宇航员中的一员，可以推算出有30401 200(人)。故b为正确选项。答案：b29解析：推理判断题。训练一名宇航员并把他送入太空需要花费几百万元，能承担起这一费用的国家寥寥无几。俄罗斯宇航局需要丹尼斯蒂托的钱，他才得以进入太空。答案：d30解析：细节理解题。第三、四段讲到，他在太空的唯一困难是行走不便。他们(宇航员)告诉他能做什么，能到什么地方去。用排除法可知c为正确选项。答案：c31解析：推理判断题。第六段讲到蒂托先生付给俄罗斯人的钱，可以支付他们年度预算的20%。如果我们想见到火星或其他行星上的人的话，我们需要像蒂托这样的富人帮我们支付费用。答案：adit may be a wellworn cliche (陈词滥调), but for hong kong star jackie chan, action really does speak louder than words at least when it comes to english dialogue.the actor was often frustrated by his inability to deliver his english lines smoothly during the shooting of rush hour 3, according to an entry on his website.“to me, action scenes are so easy, but dialogue scenes drive me crazy. the directors and producers want me to speak everything perfectly，” he wrote while filming in los angeles.sometimes when a word is in the past tense or plural (复数的), i get confused. it is hard to remember lengthy dialogue and still sound natural.“i have to say my lines over and over again until i get them right，” he said. “i want to ask them can_i_speak_jackie_chan_english？”chan is a prolific(多产的) actor, but he has said his roles there are limited because of his grasp of english. chan dedicated (献给) one diary entry to the costar chris tucker, thanking him for helping with the dialogue. chan also said he was grateful to the director brett ratner who tried to simplify the lines.in the rush hour series, chan played a hong kong police officer and tucker played his los angeles counterpart (搭档). with the humor drawing on cultural differences between the two, rush hour 3 is an exciting movie for the fans.32we can learn from the text that _.a. jackie chan couldnt speak english aloudb. jackie chan wanted to improve his englishc. jackie chan had trouble in delivering english linesd. jackie chans roles were limited because he is a chinese33what does the underlined sentence “can i
