decided to stay and set up hisown business selling health foods,which was of course 20 years ahead of its time.(几年后,这家公司离开了,Andrew决定留下来,创办自己的公司,销售健康食品,这当然超前了 20年。)可推断,Andre是个有志向的人;再根据第五段“He started experimenting.With the help of a chef friend at the Hyatt Regency,hedeveloped his own version of pasties de nata.It featured a Portuguese pastry(油酥面皮)case filled with a Britishcustard that is slightly burned on the top.(他开始尝试在凯悦酒店一位厨师朋友的帮助下,他发明了自己版本的蛋挞。它的特色是一个葡萄牙油酥面皮,里面装满了顶部微微烧焦的英国蛋奶冻。)”可推断,他极具创造力。故选A。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据文章结构可知,第一段主要是引出主题:澳门的一家葡式蛋挞店;第二、三、四段介绍了该家店的创始人Andrew Stow的早年经历;第五、六段介绍了 Andrew

the first time.Withthe frequency of space launches dramatically increasing in recent years,the potential for a disastrous collisionabove Earth is continually growing.Now,Japanese orbital clean-up company Astroscale is testing a potentialsolution.The firms End-of-Life Services by Astroscale demonstration mission is scheduled to lift off on 20 Marchaboard a Russian Soyuz rocket.It consists of two spacecraft:a smaller“client“satellite and a larger“servicer”satellite,or“chaser”.The smaller satellite is equipped with a magnetic(磁力的)plate which allows the chaser todock with it.The two stacked spacecraft will perform three tests once in orbit,each of which will involve the servicersatellite releasing and then recapturing the client satellite.The first test will be the simplest,with the clientsatellite drifting a short distance away and then being recaptured.In the second test,the servicer satellite will setthe client satellite tumbling before catching up with it and matching its motion to grab it.Finally,if those two tests go well,the chaser will live up to its name by letting the client satellite float a fewhundred metres away before finding it and attaching to it.All of these tests will be performed autonomously,withlittle to no human input once they are set in motion.“These kinds of demonstrations have never been done before in space-they are very different to,say,anastronaut controlling a robotic arm on the International Space Station,says Jason Forshaw at Astroscale UK.“This is more of an autonomous mission.At the end of the tests,both spacecraft will burn up in Earthsatmosphere.If companies wanted to use this capability,they would have to attach a magnetic plate to their satellites sothey could be captured later.Because of the growing space garbage problem,many countries now require firms tohave a way to bring back their satellites once they run out of fuel or fail,so this could be a fairly simple likelyplan,Forshaw says.Right now,each
