Now， it may be difficult to predict(預(yù)言) the future， but many people believe that we will live on Mars by the year 2100. Our own planet， Earth， is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. Well， what problems will we need to solve before we prepare to go to Mars?

First of all， transport should be much better. At present， humans need to spend months going to Mars by spaceship. However， by 2100， spaceship can travel at half the speed of light. It might take us two or three days to get there!

Secondly， humans need food， water and air to live. Scientists should develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce the food， water and air that we need. However， there is no answer for all the problems now.

There is also a problem for us to live on Mars. Mars attracts us much less than the Earth does. This will be dangerous because we could easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space there. We will have to wear special shoes to make ourselves heavier.

In some ways， life on Mars may not be better than that on the earth today. Food will not be the same — meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also， space travel will probably make many people feel very uncomfortable.

1.According to the passage， by the year 2100， we will possibly live_____.

A. on Mars B. on the moon

C. in the spaceship D. in the sea

2.So far， how long does it take us from the earth to Mars by spaceship?

A. Two or three days. B. A few days.

C. A few months. D. A few years.

3.According to the passage， which of the following is wrong?

A. A special plant which can produce water， air and food should be needed on Mars.

B. We may go to Mars when transport is much better and faster.

C. We can jump higher on Mars than on the earth.

D. Food on Mars will be much better to eat.

4.We will have to wear special shoes to _____ if we want to live on Mars.

A. make ourselves lighter B. walk faster

C. make ourselves heavier D. jump higher

5.Why do we want to live on Mars?

A. Life on Mars is more interesting than that on the earth.

B. The earth is becoming dirty and crowded.

C. The journey to Mars is very interesting.

D. The scientists want us to do that.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容簡要回答下面的問題

Saying no can be very difficult. People who are very shy often have little confidence. It is very hard for them to say no.They would feel shy when they say no, but doing things that they don’t want to do will make them unhappy. A simple and direct “No” is the best way. If you want to explain, you can keep it simple. Just say,“No,I have already made plans for this time”or“No,I’m not free at that time.” Other indirect but polite ways of saying no:

*Sorry, I can’t do this right now.

*I’m afraid I can’t, but thank you for asking.

*Please accept(接受)that I cannot come.

*I’d rather not.

To say no you should:

*Start the sentence with the word” No”.

*Shake(搖晃)your head when you say no to make sure others understand. Your voice should be clear and direct.

Sometimes it is difficult to say no. You can try to reply and explain in the following way: “Sorry. I would like to take care of your cat next weekend, but I will be going out. I know it will be hard to find someone to take care of the cat. I will try to help you next time.” Remember that: you have the right to say no!

1.Who usually have trouble saying no according to the passage?

2.How can indirect ways of saying no sound?

3.When you really want to say“No”,how should you make your voice?

4.What does the writer encourage us to do?

5.When it is really difficult to say no, what are you supposed to try to do?
