But next year, a ship from Earth w

20、ill fly closer to it than any man made craft has flown before. The mission(任务)is a big development for scientists and, maybe, for everyone else.In September 2018, NASA plans to launch the Parker Solar Probe. After a journey of nearly 90 million miles, it will fly within 3.8 million miles of the sun.

21、 within two months of launching, the probe is expected to reach the suns corona(日冕). Thats the suns outer atmosphere of gases.Getting there wont be easy. Designing a spacecraft tough enough to hold up to the suns heat has proved difficult. But that hasnt stopped engineers from trying. Temperatures i

22、n the corona can reach millions of degrees. The probe will limit itself to regions where things get no hotter than 2,500oF. Thats still a heavy heat load for a spacecraft. But a 4.5-inch-thick heat shield(罩)will protect the probes camera and scientific instruments.NASA says the data the probe collec

23、ts could provide knowledge into the physics of stars. Our sun is special to us. But as a star, its rather common. So the better we understand how it works, the better we understand all stars of its mass and color.Perhaps the most important is what the probe may show us about solar storms. During sol

24、ar storms, charged particles stream through the solar system. They can disable communications satellites and shut down powder systems. One study has found that a very intense solar storm could cause up to $2 trillion in damage in the US alone. It could also black out the East Coast for a year.Unders

25、tanding solar storms might allow us to predict them and protect ourselves. That could make even a mission with a billion-plus price tag one of NASAs great bargains.1、What can we learn about the probe?AItll fly closer to the sun that the previous onesBIts the first man made instrument to fly to the s

28、nship, there comes a time when you have to ask the tough questions: whats the deal with the mysterious fifth pocket on our favorite jeans?To find out, we called in the experts: Korie Lovette and John Cunningham ,two merchandise mangers for Wrangler jeans. “The fifth pocket was introduced in the 1800

29、s as a protective sleeve for cowboys pocket watches,” Lovette told TODAY Style. “Although the pocket is rarely used for watches today, standard jeans are still being produced in a way that can accommodate a size 2 pocket watch.”We havent seen a pocket watch since the last time we watched “Castaway”

30、, but Cunningham insists that the pocket has plenty of modern uses. “Today, men use them for pocket knives or loose change, while women might use it to hold lipstick,” he said. “Over the past couple years, it has become an increasingly popular spot to store technology devices such as cell phones or

31、iPods.”And then, of course, there is the issue of aesthetic(美感). “A classic pair of jeans would look incomplete without the fifth pocket,” Cunningham explained. “Its a tradition; an authentic construction of the jean. It was product innovation before that was a famous item. We keep the fifth pocket

32、for the typical completeness of our jeans.”That said, there are times when it makes sense to break with tradition for a more pleasing fit. “When Wrangler determines whether to include the fifth pocket or not, we look at the overall aesthetic of the figure,” said Lovette. “For womens skinny jeans or

33、leggings, we usually dont include a fifth picket since the consumer will most likely be wearing a blouse that will cover the pocket.”1、The original use of the fifth pocket is to _.Ahold pocket knives Bcarry cowboys moneyCmake the jeans more beautiful Dprotect cowboys pocket watches2、What can we infe

34、r from the text?AWomen usually like the fifth pocket on their jeansBWrangler has some kinds of jeans without the fifth pocketCThe fifth pocket was designed mainly for storing cell phonesDThe question about the fifth pocket is asked often between phones3、What may be the best title for the text?AIs th
