The emperor ordered Zheng He to visit and explore the lands China. His task was to develop relations and set up trade routes (路线) with foreign countries. In a few years, he built a great fleet of ships, the biggest in the world at that time. The ships were known as treasure ships. They were big enough to carry 25, 000 people as well as a large number of goods (货物).From 1405 to 1433, Zheng He went on seven trips and visited South-East Asia, the Middle East and even the east coast of Africa. It seemed that nowhere was too far for him to visit. These voyages allowed China to trade valuable goods like gold, silver and silk. At the end of each voyage, Zheng He returned with many things that were seen in China for the first time, such as a giraffe from Africa. Besides developing trade, the voyages also encouraged the exchange of cultures and technologies.

Even newborns prefer sweeter milk. So why does sugar tastes so good?On the one hand, sugar provides our body with calories (热量) and they are turned into energy. Children need energy to power their rapid growth. Sugar also helps to store fat, which we can make use of in case (以防) we dont have enough energy. As a result, sugar is the thing our body needs. When our body needs sugar, it sends signals to our brain and we start eating what we are missing.On the _ hand, we love sugar because it is commonly found in the plants we eat. Plants use sunlight to process water and CO2 into a special type of sugar. It is called glucose (葡萄糖). That glucose then provides the plant with food and the building materials for cell walls. And plants not only offer sugar but also many important things our body needs, such as vitamins and iron. But our tongues (舌头) are especially good at sensing sugar _ bad at tasting vitamins and iron. Thats to say, we may have developed our love of sugar while trying to make sure we are feeding our body other more useful nutrients (营养).However, too much sugar can harm our body. The World Health Organization advises us to eat or drink no more than five teaspoons of sugar every day. So we might have to work on our willpower to say no to more than enough sugar.1题写出、处所缺单词。(每空限填一词);2题从短文中找出与下面句子意思相近的句子;3题把文中划线的句子翻译成汉语;4、5题根据短文内容回答问题。6 _ _7Energy makes it possible for teenagers to grow fast._8_9What will our body do when it needs sugar?_10How much sugar should you have every day if you dont want to be harmed?_三10-year-old Sun Jiarui is in Grade Four at a primary school in the city of Wuxi.

The 41-year-old Wang became the first female astronaut (女航天员) to enter Tiangong space station. Wangs space dream started in 2003,when China sent its first astronaut Yang Liwei into space. At that time, Wang was a pilot in the Chinese army. After having safe flights for 1,600 hours over nine years, Wang was a strong candidate (候选人) to become an astronaut in 2010. She pushed herself hard, getting the same training as men. 5.“太空环境不会因为你是女人而改变,” she told Xinhua. The hardest part is the high-G training. Sitting in a spinning (旋转的) machine, Wang would become blind for a while because her brain was short of blood. “Theres a red button (按钮),” said Wang. “If you cant bear it, you can press it to stop.” But Wang never used it “There is no such red button in my heart.” That strong spirit finally made her dream come true in 2013. She joined the team for the Shenzhou X mission.Wang said that as astronauts, women have their own advantages (优势). “Women may be more patient and can better deal with loneliness. Womens hearts are also easier to adapt (适应) to the weightless environment, making them more suitable for long-term missions.”Wang Yaping went a long way before becoming the first woman to enter the Tiangong space station. She sets a good example for all women who dream of going to space.33When did Wang Yaping dream to go into space?_.34Do women astronauts have more advantages than men astronauts?_.35What do you think of Wang Yaping?_.36将文中划线部分的句子翻译成中文。_.37将文中划线部分的句子翻译成英文。_.学科网(北京)股份有限公司
