Ⅵ.阅读理解
Scientists have always wanted to know more about the universe.
Years ago they knew many things about the moon. They knew how big it was and how far it was away from the Earth. But they wanted to know more about it. They thought the best way was to send men to the moon.
The moon is about 384，000 kilometres away from the Earth. The plane can't fly to the moon because the air reaches only 240 kilometres away from the Earth. But something can fly even when there is no air. That is the rocket(火箭)．
How does the rocket fly There is gas(气体) in the rocket. When the gas is made very hot inside the rocket, it will rush out of the end of the rocket, so it can make the rocket fly up into the sky.
Rockets can fly far out into space. Rockets with men in them have been to the moon. Several rockets without men in them have flown to another planet(行星) much farther away than the moon. One day rockets may be able to go to any place in space.

Ⅶ.阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题
Sally Ride was born on May 26th, 1951, in California. She started to play tennis at the age of 10 and became a good tennis player. But later, she thought she was not good enough to become a successful tennis player and then gave it up.
At the age of 22, she got a doctor's degree. She was looking for a job when she read about NASA's call for astronauts. More than 8，000 people wanted to join in the space programme, but only Sally and thirty four other people were accepted.
After joining NASA in 1977, Sally Ride accepted training. She enjoyed flight training so much that flying became her favourite hobby. In 1983, Sally Ride became the first American woman in space on the shuttle Challenger(STS 7)(挑战者号航天飞机)．Her next flight was an eight day task in 1984 on Challenger(STS41 G)．
Sally Ride retired from NASA in 1987, then started an Internet based NASA project. Sally Ride has received many awards, including the Jefferson Award for Public Service, the Woman's Research and Education Institute's American Woman Award.
