After travelling more than seven months in space, Tianwen 1 is one step closer to Mars! Tianwen 1, China’s first Mars probe(探测器), successfully entered Mars orbit(轨道) in February, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA). It will stay in orbit for about three months before landing on the red planet.
A small step on the red planet will be a big step for human beings. Humans have launched 46 Mars exploration missions(探测任务) since October 1960, but only 19 of them have been successful, according to China Daily. It’s China’s first spacecraft to Mars, and the missions are rather ambitious. Tianwen 1 aims to achieve “orbiting, landing, and roving” all in one journey, which will make the country the world’s first to accomplish all three goals with one probe, mission scientists said.
Among the three tasks, touchdown on the red planet is the most difficult. The result mainly depends on the “breathtaking(激动的) seven minutes,” which will use several cutting-edge technologies(前沿技术) and accurate(精确的) timing of each action, including the starting of engines and opening of parachutes(降落伞) to ensure a safe landing, according to the Global Times.
The previous(此前的) success of Chang’e 5 has accumulated(积累) experience in this regard which “boosts(增强) our confidence”, Wang Ya’nan, chief editor of Beijing-based Aerospace Knowledge magazine, told the Global Times.
When the author wrote this article, where was Tianwen 1
A. on the earth B. in Mars orbit C. on Mars D. in space
Which of the statement of the following is right
It took Tianwen 1 seven months to land on Mars.
Only 19 of Mars explorations since 1960 have been successful, according to Global Times.
Among the 3 tasks, landing is the most difficult.
The failure of Chang’e 5 boots our confidence.
The meaning of “accomplish” in paragraph 2 means
尝试 B. 执行 C. 完成 D. 联合
This passage may come from a book.
A. story B. science C. history D. culture
D

Last week，Chicago became the first city in the US to join the "Lights Out Plan". People turned off the lights in the city's tallest buildings， so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes.Every year in autumn，some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south，and come back the next spring.
Lights mean danger to birds. Birds find their way home by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars.This means they cannot find the right way to go home.
This month，more than 300 kinds of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons.Many birds cannot live in the cold，so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons，too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same "house" they lived in last year，so they fly back there.
There are about 9，000 kinds of birds in the world，and about 600 kinds of birds migrate（迁徙）.Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries.We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds.
What did people do in the "Lights Out Plan"？
How do birds find their way home？
How many kinds of birds are flying over Chicago to return to the south to spend winter this month？
Is looking for food in the south the only reason why birds fly to warmer places？
Why are there fewer birds today？
