Beep! Beep! Barcode (条形码) technology makes it faster and easier to buy things in stores. You’ve probably seen the black-and-white zebra stripes (条纹) on product packaging. This year, this great invention is 50 years old!
On a Sunday afternoon in 1971, IBM engineer George Laurer came up with a code that could be printed on food labels (商标). It became the basis for the Universal Product Code, which was used by many grocery companies starting in 1973, according to The New York Times. Before this, cashiers (收银员) had to ring up prices by hand.
Time has proven it to be a great invention. Today, barcodes are scanned (扫描) over 6 billion times every day and used by 2 million companies worldwide, PR Newswire reported.
What information does a barcode contain Where the product comes from, where it has been, its price, expiration date (过期时间)… you name it. It can also help stores keep track of (跟踪) their products. For example, if there are 10 boxes of milk and a customer buys one, it will be recorded so that the store owner knows there are nine boxes left. In the 1980s, libraries started using barcodes to keep track of books in this way.
“Its creation allowed the first digitization (数字化) in the control of the stock (库存),” José María Bonmatí from AECOC, a Spanish commercial association, told El Mundo.
The next generation of barcodes, such as QR codes (二维码), can hold more information. “They can tell consumers if a product contains allergens (过敏原) or if it is organic (有机的). This provides consumers with a greater level of trust in the products they buy,” said GS 1, an organization that develops global barcode standards.
36.What do we know about barcodes
A.They were first used in New York. B.They were invented five decades ago.
C.They were based on the Universal Product Code. D.They were designed by a cashier in a grocery store.
37.What is Paragraph 3 about
A.What barcodes can be used for. B.What barcodes can help customers do.
C.How widely barcodes are used worldwide. D.How information is stored in barcodes.
38.According to José María Bonmatí barcodes __________.
A.make cashiers’ work easier to do B.improve the quality of food packaging
C.help companies better manage their stock D.tell consumers more about the products they buy
39.What do we know from the last paragraph
A.The importance of barcodes still needs to be proven.
B.QR codes will replace barcodes in the future.
C.GS 1 is developing a new type of barcode.
D.QR codes are more consumer friendly.
40.Which word might the writer use to describe barcodes
A.Organic. B.Beautiful. C.Convenient. D.Expensive.

At 15:40 on December 9th, 2021, the “space teacher”, Wang Yaping, made some experiments in the Tianhe Core Module of the Chinese Space Station.
“Welcome to the ‘Tiangong Classroom!’” said Wang Yaping.
※Taking a “spacewalk” is difficult
Ye Guangfu was working hard to walk, but his body floated (漂浮)! Then he tried to turn around but he couldn’t. “In space, astronauts are in a weightless environment. So we need to use nearby devices (装置) to move,” he said.
※The paper flower “blooms”
In the “Tiangong Classroom,” Wang Yaping made a beautiful water film (水膜). Then she took out a paper flower and placed it on the film of water. The pink flower slowly “bloomed”! “I hope your dreams can bloom in the huge universe!” she said.
※“Space Happy Ball” brings fun
Wang Yaping asked the children on the ground to put their ping pong ball in the water. The density (密度) of the ball was less than that of the water, so it floated up.
In space, when she put the ping pong ball into the water, it did not float up to the surface. It stopped in the center of the water!
“The buoyancy (浮力) disappears in a weightless environment in space so the ping pong ball cannot float,” Ms. Wang explained.
41.Why was it difficult for Ye Guangfu to turn around
A.Because he was working too hard. B.Because he was too tired to turn around.
C.Because he was walking too fast. D.Because he was in a weightless environment.
42.What does the underlined word “blooms” mean in Chinese
A.成长 B.开花 C.发亮 D.兴旺
43.What does the underlined “it” refer to
A.The paper flower. B.The water film.
C.The “Tiangong Classroom”. D.The huge universe.
44.Which is TRUE according to the passage
A.Astronauts need nearby devices to float.
B.Wang Yaping grew flowers in the space station.
C.The paper flower bloomed on the film of water in space.
D.The ping pong ball didn't float up in the water on Earth.
45.What’s the best title of the passage
A.Huge University B.Difficult Spacewalk
C.The Chinese Space Station D.Amazing Space Classroom

Every now and then you may see news of satellites (卫星) sent into space. On Feb 21, for example, US company Space X took 46 satellites into orbit. On Feb 27, China sent 22 satellites into space. Why do we need so many satellites What do they do out there
At present, there are more than 3,000 active satellites moving around the Earth, according to Statista, a Germany company working on market data. Satellites do all kinds of work, from sending TV signals to giving you directions on the road to helping scientists do researches.
For example, the 22 satellites China just sent up are part of Beidou Navigation Satellite System (北斗卫星导航系统). Shared bikes that use Beidou chips (芯片) can have more accurate (精准的) positioning, making them easy to find. Drones can also use Beidou to fly better than before.
Before satellites, TV signals didn’t go very far. Mountains or tall buildings would block them. Phone calls to faraway places were also a problem. Setting up telephone wires over long distances is difficult. With satellites, TV signals and phone calls can be sent directly and back down to different locations on Earth. SpaceX’s Starlink project is trying to go further. It plans to use satellites to provide Internet in the future.
Satellites can also provide information about clouds, oceans, land and ice. They help scientists predict changes in weather and climate. By monitoring wildfires and volcanoes, satellites help people deal with natural disasters. Farmers can use satellite images to decide the best time to water their fields.
Some satellites fly near other planets. They may look for water on Mars or take close-up pictures of Saturn’s rings. In 2020, video website Bilibili sent a satellite into space. Its job is to look at other planets and share the pictures and videos with Bilibili’s users.
Like any other machine, satellites do not last forever. When they die, they can go either of two ways. One is falling down to the Earth, the other is being sent further from the Earth and become space junk.
46.What can we learn from Paragraph l
A.There is a no serious competition between China and the US.
B.The US has sent fewer satellites than China on Feb.
C.China has the most satellites in space altogether.
D.Humans have sent many satellites into space.
47.The satellites for the Beidou system can NOT help ________.
A.shared bikes have more accurate positioning B.people find shared bikes more easily
C.people find shared bikes more accurately D.drones fly worse than before
48.What can satellites do at present, according to the story
a. Sending telephone signals.
b. Helping scientists do researches.
c. Provide information about the environment.
d. Stop natural disasters.
A.abc B.abd C.acd D.bcd
49.Which of the following sentence is NOT true
A.Shared bikes that use Beidou chips can have more accurate positioning.
B.SpaceX’s Starlink project isn’t trying to use satellites to provide Internet.
C.Satellites can be used to help scientists deal with many things.
D.When satellites die, they can fall down to the Earth or become space junk.
50.What is the main idea of the passage
A.The difficulty of sending a satellite into space.B.Advantages and disadvantages of satellites.
C.Why countries are competing to send satellites into space. D.What satellites can do for us.

Since then, there ____54____ (be) many other underwater labs. Aquarius is ____55____ only one still running today. It is located 20 metres ____56____ (above) sea level in Florida. Marine(海洋的)scientist Deron Burkepile is one of the few who have worked there.
The first night Burkepile spent there was ten years ago. The memory is still fresh in his mind. As the scientist swam to Aquarius ____57____ two of his colleagues(同事), it got darker and darker. “It’s one of ____58____ (cool) experiences I’ve ever had,” Burkepile said.
The past few years have seen great improvements in technology. ____59____ , inside underwater labs, things haven’t changed much. The conditions are still terrible. Aquarius only has 37 square metres of space inside it. Hot water is limited. Showers have to be short. Food is ____60____ (most) freeze-dried(冷冻干燥保存的), or jam sandwiches.
But the future of the underwater living may be bright. Some companies have been working on underwater hotels. These hotels have larger rooms, hot showers and elevators to take guests down.
