“But it might happen,” I cried with my discouraged heart.

When Bruce first met Beethoven’s Moonlight over 50 years ago, he lost himself in it at once and dreamed of becoming a pianist. Although a piano was absent at home then, he learned to play Beethoven (贝多芬) by ear. Unbelievably, Bruce entered the Royal Academy of Arts at 16, which marked the beginning of his successful pianist journey. But that’s not all. . .
Bruce’s wife works at Elephants World, a reserve (自然保护区) devoted to the care of rescued (救援) elephants. These elephants have worked for humans all their life and many are blind or disabled from being treated badly. After learning about that, Bruce wanted to make the effort to carry something heavy himself. Finally, Bruce and his wife were allowed by the manager to bring a piano into the reserve, bringing music to the elephants’ lives. It was truly magical.
At the beginning, when Bruce started playing, it was hard to hear the piano above the sounds of nature and the elephants chewing (咀嚼) grass. However, everything changed when a blind elephant stopped eating and focused on his playing. It hit Bruce that this elephant had a love for music. From that moment on, Bruce was no longer worried about influencing their pеace.
Now Bruce continues to play for these elephants in the reserve. Surprisingly, it’s the sad male elephants who show the most fascination with the music. He believes it has a calming effect. These elephants’ breathing actually slows down when he plays, which tells Bruce they are relaxed and happy. He has even seen elephants seemingly dancing to Beethoven’s pieces. With their excellent hearing and the ability to sense vibrations (震动) through their feet, Bruce is confident that elephants can understand the language of human expression.
Bruce jokes that he is now an “Elepianist” and his human audience (听众) must miss him too much!
56. From paragraph 1, it’s clear that Bruce ____________ when he was young.

Some of the world’s most important scientists think the idea of people living on Mars will come true one day. Stephen Hawking believed humans must move into space to live. “Once we spread out into space and build independent colonies (殖民地), our future should be safe,” he said. Robert Zubrin, a rocket scientist, agrees and thinks sending people to Mars will allow us to learn a lot—for example, about the ability of humans to live in a very different environment,
★ Terraforming means changing the environment on a planet so that it is similar to Earth’s. One of the main goals of terraforming Mars is to warm it up because the average temperature there is about-60 °C. One idea for warming Mars is to build factories there that produce greenhouse gases. This could take many centuries. However, it should lead to rainfall and the growth of plants, resulting in more air that people can breathe.
Another big concern for scientists is whether humans can move to Mars and still stay healthy in mind and body. As a test, six people lived in a Mars-like environment in Hawaii for a year before “returning to Earth” recently. It was a 1, 200-square-foot room that was on the side of a volcano (火山) and used the sun for energy. Christiane Heinicke, one of the people who lived there, said that one of the biggest problems was feeling bored. Another important finding was that the people living together should all be able to get along and work together.
One particular organization based in Europe is planning to send the first humans to Mars before 2030. However, many experts think the project’s cost of $6 billion is too low for it to be successful. The American space agency NASA believes that sending people to Mars would cost about $100 billion, although this estimate (估价) is based on bringing them back to Earth, too. Anyway, it seems that humans living on Mars may well happen a lot sooner than most people believe.
61. Paragraph 1 mainly focuses on ____________.
A. how we can move to another planet B. why we work on moving to Mars
B. when we will move to Mars D. what the location of Mars is
62. Which of the following can be put in ★
A. However, scientists need to terraform Mars for people to live
B. And lots of scientists are trying to send the people to Mars.
C. But scientists can’t do anything about accurately studying Mars.
D. However, it is not easy for human beings to move to Mars
63. According to paragraph 3, scientists care about ____________.
A. the cost of moving to Mars to live B. the energy on Mars
C. the physical and mental health of people D. the food on Mars
64. The underlined word “them” refers to ____________.
A. humans B. experts C. planets D. costs
65. What does the author think about living to Mars
A. Living on Mars is boring but good
B. It is too costly to send humans to Mars
C. Humans’ health will be greatly affected
D. Moving to Mars is expected in the near future.
