              Come to meet our stars! The world-famous Ringling Bros Circusis building up the excitement one hour before the show begins. At the All Access Pre-Show children of all ages are invited to join our performers on the show floor. It's your chance to be right in the middle of the circus action. You can learn circus skills and get signatures from extraordinary circus stars, try on a traditional Ringmaster jacket and be part of our dance party!

              Gypsy Gomes comes from Argentina where she was taught her circus skills as a child. She will leave your head spinning as she controls up t0 80 hoola hoops (呼啦圈) while balancing on a huge mirror ball. Having many hoops thrown in her direction all at once is just one of her many talents.

              Emily Ryan gives thrilling performances in her German Wheel. Her beauty and courage go hand in hand with her broad talents and tricks.

              With the most elegant touch, Emma Avery bravely steps out into thin air on a silver thread of wire, showing her skills not only of balance but of beautifully performed talents.

              Sixth generation Swiss circus artist, Rosita Gasser performs a unique and very modern display on the Roman Rings with skill, balance and style. Her strength and control during performance has come from being a single, double and flying trapeze (空中飞人) from the young age of eight and a lifetime in the circus.

              US private rocket company SpaceX has announced that two private citizens have paid to be sent around the Moon. The mission (任务) is planned for late 2018. SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said, "This presents an opportunity for humans to return to deep space for the first time in 45 years."

              The two unnamed people will fly aboard a spaceship which is set for its first unmanned test flight later this year. The co-operation of America's NASA space agency had made the plan possible. Mr. Musk said, "The two passengers will travel faster and further into the solar system than any before them." Like the Apollo astronauts before them, these individuals will travel into space carrying the hopes and dreams of all humankind, driven by the universal human spirit of exploration.

              "We expect to conduct health and fitness tests, as well as begin initial training later this year. The first mission would be unmanned, and the next one―with crew―was expected in the second quarter of 2018," the rich businessman and inventor said, "The first passengers are entering this with their eyes open, knowing that there is some risk here. They're certainly not childish, and we'll do everything we can to reduce that risk, but it's not zero."

              The space tourists would make a circle around the Moon, scanning the lunar surface and then going well beyond. However, the mission will not involve a lunar landing. "If NASA decided to take part in a lunar fly-by mission, then the agency would have privilege," Mr. Musk said. The US has not sent astronauts to the Moon since the early 1970s.


              (1) Which of the following statements is true according to the text?

              A. The two tourists can't afford to fly around the moon.

              B. Space travels are rooted in the spirit of human exploration.

              C. Initial training is expected to be conducted at the beginning of 2018.

              D. The two tourists are expected to fly at a slow speed.

              (2) The agency has privilege because

              A. it needs co-operation with Mr. Musk
              B. it has previous technical skills

              C. it will be able to remove all the risks
              D. it has to make money for research

              (3) Where can you most probably read the text?

              A. In a textbook. B. In a science fiction.

              C. In a travel brochure. D. On a news website.

              (4) What can be a suitable title for the text?

              A. T he Coming Moon Trip of Two Private Citizens

              B. An Opportunity to Explore Space for the First Time

              C. A Paid Trip Planned by SpaceX to 'Land on the Moon

              D. Two Unmanned Missions of Circling around the Moon

              New York City is a great city which has a lot of romantic getaways. They’re the perfect places to relax and escape from the busy life. You can start planning a weekend getaway to the following places.

              Rochester: Edward Harris House

              It offers guests a great place right next to the heart of the Rochester Arts/ Cultural District, which is packed with urban village shops, fine dining cafes and museums to explore. Seriously, they’re all just one block away!

              Chester: The Glenmere Mansion

              This adult-only country house in the Hudson Valley was once a private palace where many kings and queens have rested their heads. With only 18 rooms and suites and a grand piano player willing to take requests, you’ll feel as if it’s your own private palace.

              Finger Lakes: Geneva on the Lake

              You’ll feel like you’re in another world on the edge of Seneca Lake. Every little detail will transport you back in time, from the heavily decorated dining room to the 17th-century furniture. As a bonus, the elegant vacation spot is not far from the Wine Trail, making it very easy to drink a glass.

              New Paltz: Mohonk Mountain House

              The only decision you’ll have to make at this holiday village is how many of the activities you want to try. On the list of options are skating and cross-country skiing, not to mention additional offerings like a cocktail tasting in an extremely beautiful castle.

              Technology offers conveniences such as opening the garage door from your car or changing the television station without touching the TV.

              Now one American company is offering its employees a new convenience: a microchip implanted in their hands. Employees who have these chips can do all kinds of things just by waving their hands. Three Square Market is offering to implant microchips in all of their employees for free. Each chip costs $300 and Three Square Market will pay for the chip. Employees can volunteer to have the chips implanted in their hands. About 50 out of 80 employees have chosen to do so. The president of the company, his wife and their children are also getting chips implanted in their hands.

              The chip is about the size of a grain of rice. Implanting the chip only takes about a second and is said to hurt only very briefly. The chips go under the skin between the thumb and forefinger. With a chip in the hand, a person can enter the office building, buy food, sign into computers and more, simply by waving that hand near a scanner. The chips will be also used to identify employees. Employees who want convenience, but do not want to have a microchip implanted under their skin, can wear a wristband or a ring with a chip instead. They can perform the same tasks with a wave of their hands as if they had an implanted chip.

              Three Square Market is the first company in the United States to offer to implant chips in its employees. Epicenter, a company in Sweden, has been implanting chips in its employees for a while.

              Three Square Market says the chip cannot track the employees. The company says scanners can read the chips only when they are within a few inches of them. “The chips protect against identity theft, similar to credit cards.” The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the chips back in 2004, so they should be safe for humans, according to the company.

              In the future, people with the chips may be able to do more with them, even outside the office. Todd Westby is Chief Executive Officer of Three Square Market. He says, “Eventually, this technology will become standardized allowing you to use this as your passport, public transit, all purchasing opportunities, etc.”

              (1) What is the third paragraph mainly about?
              A. The substitutes of the chips.                          
              B. The potential risks of implanting the chips.
              C. The places to implant the chips.                 
              D. The advantages of the chips.
              (2) What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
              A. the hands          B. the scanners             
              C. the employees        D. the credit cards
              (3) We can infer that_____.
              A. the chips have magic powers                            
              B. the price of the chips is reasonable
              C. the chips are very popular among the employees
              D. most people suspect the application of the chips
              (4) Which of the following best describes Todd Westby's attitude towards the chips?
              A. Defensive.         B. Disappointing.             
              C. Casual.          D. Optimistic.
