21、 balloon （ 气球）.They started early in London. The headman was Auguste Gaudron, and the other two men were Tannar and Soon they heard the sea below them. They were carrying the usual rope, and it was hanging down from the basket of the balloon. At the end of the rope they had tied a metal box. This co

22、uld hold water, or it could be empty. So they were able to change its weight. It was for use over the sea. They were also carrying some bags of sand.After the sun rose, the balloon went higher. It went up to 3,000 metres, and the airwas very cold. The water in the balloon became ice. Snow fell past

23、the men' sbasket, and they could see more snow on the ground. There was also some snow on the balloon, and that made it very heavy. It began to go down towards the ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand 。 but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was

24、not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling 。 so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake below and made a black hole in the ice.At last they pulled the box into the basket. It was still snowing 。 so they climbed toget away from the snow. They rose to 5,1

25、00 metres! Everything became icy. They were so cold that they decided to land. They came down in Poland heavily but safely. They had traveled 1,797 kilometres from London!71. Three men flew in a balloon.A. for nearly 1,800 kilometresB. to another cityC. to visit PolandD. more than a century ago 72.

28、hen they pulled the box into the basket the balloon began to climb up.D. The three men had to land because they felt cold.BMost people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scientists studied works（ 作品）of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the

29、 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are righthanded, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always beencommon through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world' spopulation is left-handed.Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists n

30、ow know that a person ' s two hanidsavactheir own jobs. For most people, the left hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain（ 大月百）. The right side of the brain, which makes a per son

31、' s hands and eyes work together, controls （控制）the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is center for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that lefthandedness is twice as common among art

32、ists than among people in other jobs.No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of lefthanded. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged（损害）when they are born. However, this doesn ' t happen to everyone, so

33、 scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene（基因）for righthandedness, he/she may become either right or left handed according to the chance（偶然性）and the people th

34、ey work or live with.Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no longer think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, lefthanded children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they don ' t have to.76. After studying works

35、 of are made at different times in history, the scientists found.A. the art began from 1,500 B.C.B. the work of art ended in the 1950sC. most people shown in the works of art are right-handedD. most people shown in the works of art are left-handed77.

37、nking and doing problems.79. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.B. Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.C. Today children are not made to use their right hands only.D. Scientists think there must be

38、 some reasons why people become left-handed.80. The best title for this passage is.A. Scientists ' New inventionsB. Left-handed PeopleC. Which handD.

47、 might be something stolen in itDHappiness is for everyone. You don ' t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those

48、 who have cars want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it.

49、 health 。 when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you 。 when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All theses are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that

50、happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can ' t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, becau

51、se you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving （旋转的）door. When it closes, it also opens.
