2.Most Chinese know the story of Chang'e,the Chinese goddess of the moon.People can't hear the word "Chang'e" without thinking of romantic images of a moon goddess.
For this reason,China's mission to the moon was calling out for a strong female figure.Therefore,a young female space commander(指揮員)is under heated discussion on Chinese social media for her work on the Chang'e-5 Moon exploration program with comments about how she is a "frontline soldier in the field of aerospace" that young Chinese can look up to.Soon her pictures spread quickly on social media.
Ms Zhou,a 24-year-old lady of Tujia ethnic group,is China's youngest ever space commander.She was involved in the successful launch of the Chang'e-5 lunar probe on 24 November,in charge of the rocket connector system,described as a key role.
In Wenchang space launch site,though she is only 1.58 meters and looks "mini",she is called "big sister" for her attitude and energy.Since senior high,she has dreamed of being a member of a space research team.With her great efforts,she was admitted to an aircraft system and engineering major of a domestic university in 2014,making her aerospace dream come true.To grow into a commander,in two and a half years,she changed five positions to be familiar with different posts and types of work,each of which takes great courage and is full of challenges.
Her story has received attention from Chinese state-run media as well as overseas media outlets.However,it has not appeared to have had much of an effect on her.According to the media,she declined repeated requests for interviews because she does not wish to let fame get in the way of her work.

3.A journey 333 feet below the Earth's surface,within caves millions of years old,leads to one of the most popular music places in the United States.Cumberland Caverns Live in McMinnville,Tennessee,has hosted a large number of musicians from across the world for 55 years.Artists perform in the world famous Volcano Room,which is gaining prevalence due to its beautiful setting and perfect way of carrying sound.
Long hallways lead 600 guests to the open amphitheater(圓形劇場(chǎng)),formed with large stone walls that reflect sound waves in just the right way to produce near perfect surround sound.
"I think it's one of the most fascinating,beautiful places for a concert," said Cumberland Caverns general manager Travis Young."Every artist who plays Cumberland Caverns Live feels surprised.The cave is unique,the acoustics(音響效果) are perfect,and the lighting is truly amazing."
The special surfaces transmit the sound perfectly.Though the huge amount of water in the air makes tuning(調(diào)音)slightly harder,guests and artists love the cool temperature that exists year round.
Thousands of guests visit the caves each year to see the historic mines,underground waterfalls and many pools along the rocky underground routes.
The Volcano Room used to exist as a local place for church groups to meet.Starting in 2008,a monthly music event called Bluegrass Underground brought consistent tunes to the caves and aired on PBS.Now,concerts are held year-round,featuring all types of music.

4.A new study suggests that some homemade soups made of chicken,beef or vegetables might help fight malaria.
Jake Baum of the Imperial College London led the research.He asked children at a London school to bring in homemade clear soups that their families would make to treat a fever.The soups were then exposed to the parasite(寄生蟲(chóng))that creates 99.7 percent of malaria cases in Africa,the World Health Organization explained.
Of the 56 soups tested,five were more than 50 percent effective in containing the growth of the parasite.Two were as effective as one drug now used to treat malaria.And four soups were more than 50 percent effective at preventing parasites from aging to the point that they could infect mosquitoes that spread the disease.Baum also noted that it was unclear which foods made the soups effective against malaria.
The soups came from families from different ethnic histories,including Europe,North Africa and the Middle East.They had several main ingredients,including chicken,beef and green vegetables.Baum said the vegetarian soups showed similar results to the soups with meat.
Baum said his aim was in part to show children that scientific research can turn a herbal cure into a man-made medicine.He noted the research of Dr.Tu Youyou from Chjye.aia.In the 1970s,she found that the herb quinhao was an effective antimalarial(抗瘧疾的)treatment.The herb has been used in Eastern medicine for two thousand years.Tu's research led to the man-made drug artemisinin,a drug now widely used to treat malaria.
More and more people are becoming resistant(抗藥性)to the drugs that treat the disease,which kills nearly 400,000 people a year.That means scientists will have to "look beyond chemistry" and find new drugs,Baum adds.
(1)Why did children at a London school bring in homemade soups?
A.To treat a fever.
B.To have for lunch.
C.To compete with others.
D.To take part in an experiment.
(2)What do we know about the research led by Jake Baum?
A.What in the soups works is still unknown.
B.Most soups are effective in killing the parasite.
C.Half of the soups can stop mosquitoes from spreading malaria.
D.The vegetarian soups and the soups with meat have different effects.
(3)Why does Baum take Dr.Tu Youyou as an example?
A.To emphasize her great achievement in treating malaria.
B.To stress the importance of quinhao in treating malaria.
C.To note a herbal cure can come into a man-made medicine.
D.To show quinhao has been discovered for a long time.
(4)What is scientists' task next?
A.To expand their studies for new medicines.
B.To collect more soups for scientific study.
C.To research into the ingredients of the soups.
D.To find out why malaria exists in many countries.組卷:5引用:2難度:0.5
