This recently-released documentary(紀錄片)had some fantastic footage(鏡頭) in it, and a very personal look at many of the astronauts who went to the moon. Overall, that is a very exclusive(獨特的) club; only about a dozen men ever did it in the history of the world and just eight or nine ever stepped foot on it. Most of them are still alive and they discuss their adventures, insights and personal feelings here.

One gets the feeling that the rest of us will never know exactly how beautiful the moon is except to take the astronauts’s words about it, because even the pictures on this DVD can’t convey that.

Since this documentary is about 100 minutes long, you get a lot of information. You also get reminded how close two of the three men who went up on that historic first walk on the moon almost didn’t get home alive.

An absence in this documentary is the most famous astronaut of them all: Neil Armstrong, the first man to step foot on the moon! Apparently, he did not want to be part of this film. One of the astronauts mentions something briefly about Armstrong being somewhat of a “recluse(隱居者)” now and it “being understandable with what he’s gone through”. From what I’ve read, a lot of people have tried to make money off him in shady ways and so now he’s withdrawn(退出) from the public spotlight.

This film, a legacy to the Apollo program and the brave men who ran it, should be in every schoolroom. It would make history more interesting to students.

1.What can we know from the passage?

A．One of the astronauts talks about how beautiful the moon is.

B．Two of the three men who went to the moon lost their lives.

C．The documentary would make more students interested in history.

D．The astronauts talk about their adventures, insights and excitement.

2.How many astronauts first flew to the moon?

A．1                B．2                C．3.               D．4

3.Why was Armstrong absent from the film?

A．Because he didn’t like to show in public.

B．Because he has been tired of astronaut’s life.

C．Because someone wanted to make money off him.

D．Because he thought what he did was nothing to mention.

4.What made Armstrong famous around the world?

A．That he came back safely to the earth alive.

B．That he became an astronaut.

C．That he first stepped on the moon.

D．That he walked on the moon for 100 minutes.

簡答題。
     閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)第1-3小題的具體要求，簡要回答問題。
     A barn is where farmers keep animals and equipment. Over time as fewer and fewer people worked
on the land, more and more barns were torn down to make way for developers. Others that remained
might have fallen into poor condition. Or perhaps they just no longer satisfy the needs of modern farmers. Keeping an old barn in good condition might not be seen as worth the cost if it doesn't serve much
purpose. But Americans with historic barns are being urged to save them. The magazine Successful
Farming and the National Trust for Historic Preservation are working together on a program called
Barn Again! The National Trust is a non-profit organization that works to provide protection for places
of historic importance in America.
     The Barn Again program advises hundreds of barn owners every year. Awards are given for the
projects that best succeed in restoring a barn for continued farm use. Winning buildings are used to
demonstrate methods of preservation.
     The organization suggests how problems with things like stone and concrete block foundations can be
fixed. With many old barns, the foundation they are built on is falling apart. Barn Again also offers advice
for other repairs, like how to replace siding and how to use a power washer to remove loose paint. And
farmers are given suggestions about how to calculate costs.
     Leo Fitzpatrick of Beaverton, Michigan won the 2004 Barn Again Award. He made one
improvement at a time. The work took more than nine years. He did it himself, even though for a while he
held another job in addition to farming. He says it cost him fourteen thousand dollars, much less than a
new barn of similar size. The improvements include strengthening the barn. There are no structural
supports inside the building; instead, its sizes hold it up.  
1. Why were barns torn down? (回答詞數(shù)不超過6個)
2. What does Barn Again program do? (回答詞數(shù)不超過8個)
3. What is the best title for the passage? (回答詞數(shù)不超過6個)
