你知道谁是第一个被送往太空的宇航员吗?就让我们通过下文一起去了解吧!
The first astronaut was either the Soviet Yuri Gagarin or the Soviet dog Laika, depending on whether the definition is restricted based on species. Both are remembered for their accomplishments and contributions to space travel.
Laika was sent to space on November 3, 1957 on board Sputnik 2, becoming the first animal to space. Sputnik 2 was the second spacecraft launched into earth orbit.
The dog died only a few hours after launch, due to the strong stress and overheating. As the technology to return a payload to earth was not available at the time, it was planned to put the dog to sleep with poisoned food on the 10th day of flight.
The cabin of Sputnik 2 included a life-support system with an oxygen generator, a fan that was supposed to activate when the temperature was above 59°F, gelatinous food for a 10-day flight,and a bag to collect waste. When some of the thermal insulation tore loose after separation of the last stage, the temperature of the cabin increased to 1,040 °F, and Laika died within 5 to 7 hours after great stress.
As satellite and space technology rapidly progressed, the Soviet Union once again decided to pioneer the way forward in space by launching the first human astronaut. Yuri Gagarin was launched into space on April 12, 1961, about three and a half years after the launch of Sputnik 2 which took 108 minutes.
Gagarin then went out from the capsule, about 4.35 miles above the ground, landing to the earth a few hundred miles away from the launch site in Kazakhstan. Some villagers saw Gagarin land with his parachute.Being the world's first astronaut, Gagarin instantly became an international celebrity.

Chinese Taikonaut Back on Earth!
China's first taikonaut Lieutenant Colonel Yang Liwei landed safely this morning in the Shenzhou V capsule in Inner Mongolia, 300 kilometres northwest of Beijing. Yang was in space for twenty-one and a half hours and made 14 orbits(轨道)of the earth.
“It is a great moment in the history of China—and also the greatest day of my life,”said Yang. When he was orbiting in the capsule(太空舱)①, he took photographs of the planet Earth. “Our planet is so beautiful,”he said.
中国宇航员返回地球
中国首位宇航员空军中校杨利伟于今天早晨乘坐“神舟五号”飞船在距北京西北部300千米远的内蒙古安全着陆。杨利伟在太空停留了21个半小时,飞船绕地球飞了14圈。
“这是中国历史上的一个伟大时刻——也是我人生中最伟大的一天,”杨利伟说道。当他在太空舱内环绕地球飞行的时候,他拍了很多地球的照片。他说:“我们的星球是如此美丽。”
[助读讲解] ①When he was orbiting in the capsule为when引导的时间状语从句。
The Beijing Space Control Centre said the flight was a “complete success”②. When Yang landed, Premier Wen Jiabao telephoned the Control Centre to offer his congratulations.
北京航天指挥控制中心评论说飞行取得“圆满成功”。杨利伟一着陆,温家宝总理就给控制中心打电话表示祝贺。
[助读讲解] ②此处success为可数名词,表示“成功的事情”。
When Yang took off from Jiuquan in northwest China at 9 am yesterday, China became the third nation to send a man into space③.Yang is the 431st person to travel in space, including astronauts from 32 countries. In total, these astronauts have spent more than 26,000 days in space.
昨天上午9点,杨利伟在中国西北部的酒泉起飞,中国成为世界上第三个把人送入太空的国家。杨利伟是包括来自32个国家的宇航员在内的第431个在太空遨游的人。这些宇航员总共在太空呆的时间已经超过了26 000天。
[助读讲解] ③to send a man into space为不定式短语作定语修饰前面的the third nation。
While he was travelling in space, Yang spoke to two astronauts aboard the International Space Station, which is orbiting the earth, Lu and Russian cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko.④Lu,whose parents were born in China⑤, spoke to Yang in Chinese during his flight. “Welcome to space,”he said. Malenchenko said,“I am glad there is somebody else in space with us. It's great work by thousands and thousands of people from China.”
在太空飞行期间,杨利伟与绕地球运行的国际空间站的两位宇航员进行了通话:一位是美国宇航员爱德华·卢,另一位是俄罗斯宇航员尤里·马林年科。爱德华·卢的父母在中国出生,他用中文与飞行中的杨利伟交谈。他说:“欢迎来到太空。”马林年科说:“我很高兴还有别的人在太空中陪伴着我们,载人航天的成功是中国成千上万人的伟大成就。”
[助读讲解] ④本句中While he was travelling in space为while引导的时间状语从句,which is orbiting the earth为which引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the International Space Station。⑤whose parents were born in China为whose引导的非限制性定语从句,whose parents可替换为the parents of whom。
Many countries around the world sent messages of congratulations. Sean O'Keefe from NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) in the US said that Yang's space flight was “an important historical achievement and NASA wishes China continuing success with its space flight programme⑥”. United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan called the flight “a step forward for the whole world”.
世界上许多国家向中国发来了贺电。来自美国国家航空航天局的肖恩·奥基夫说,杨利伟的太空之行是“一个意义重大的历史性的成就,美国国家航空航天局祝愿中国在其太空飞行项目上继续取得成功”。联合国秘书长科菲·安南把此次飞行称作是“全世界的一个进步”。

⑦Now that I have made this first visit, I hope I can come many more times.

1. 例①②③④⑤中的连词引导时间状语从句;例⑥⑦中的连词引导原因状语从句。
2.when引导时间状语从句时,从句中的谓语动词和主句谓语动词所表示的动作同时发生,如例①;也可以在主句谓语动词之前发生,如例②。
3.while引导的时间状语从句中的谓语动词必须是和主句谓语动作同时发生,如例④。
4.since, now that引导原因状语从句时常置于主句之前,如例⑥⑦。
一、时间状语从句
除了之前学习的由when, while, as引导的时间状语从句外,常见的引导时间状语从句的连词还有以下几种情况:
1.before引导时间状语从句时,有“在……之前;……才……;……就……;还没来得及……就……”等多种意义。常用句式:
It will be/was +一段时间+before...过了……时间才……;
It won't be/wasn't +一段时间+before...没过多久就……。
He had left before I could say something.
我还没来得及说点什么,他就离开了。
It won't be long before we meet again.
过不了多久我们就会再见面的。
2.since引导时间状语从句时,表示“自从……以来多久了”,从句中的谓语动词多用一般过去时,而主句中谓语动词多用现在完成时或现在完成进行时。常用句式:It is/has been +一段时间+since从句(常用过去时)
We have never met since we graduated from the college.
自从我们大学毕业后就再也没有见过面。
As is reported,it is over 100 years since Qinghua University was founded.
据报道,自清华大学建校以来已有一百多年了。
3.till/until引导时间状语从句时,主句的谓语动词是延续性动词,表示“直到……为止”; not...until/till...引导时间状语从句时,主句的谓语动词是终止性动词,表示“直到……才……”。
He waited until/till his mother came back.
他一直等到他妈妈回来。
I didn't go to bed until/till I finished my homework.
直到做完作业我才上床睡觉。
[名师点津]
(1)在not...until/till...结构中,当not until...置于句首时,主句要部分倒装。
Not until he returned home did we feel relaxed.
直到他回到家我们才感到如释重负。
(2)当not...until...结构用于强调句型时,句子结构为:It is/was not until...that...
It was not until he came back that I went to bed.
直到他回来我才去睡觉。
4.as soon as, the moment, the minute, immediately,directly等引导时间状语从句时,表示“一……就……”。
The moment/Immediately/As soon as I heard the voice, I knew my father was coming.
一听到声音,我就知道父亲回来了。
[名师点津]
no sooner...than...,hardly...when...表示“一……就……”时注意以下两点:
(1)当hardly, no sooner置于句首时,其后的句子用部分倒装;
(2)hardly和no sooner后的句子常用过去完成时,when和than后的句子常用一般过去时。
I had hardly closed the door when somebody knocked.
我刚把门关上就有人敲门。
We had no sooner arrived at the station than the train left.
=No sooner had we arrived at the station than the train left.
我们一到火车站,火车就开走了。
5.短语every time, each time, next time, the first time, by the time等也可以引导时间状语从句。
Every time he arrived home at the end of the day, we'd greet him at the door.
每次在一天结束时他回到家,我们都在门口迎接他。
Next time you come in, please close the door.
下次你进来,请关门。
[即时演练1] 用适当的连词填空
①—Have you known each other for long?
—Not very,since we started to work in the ABC Motor Company.
②Before I knew what happened, the car drove straight to me.
③She had hardly left the building when the accident happened.
二、原因状语从句
1.because引导原因状语从句
because意为“因为,由于”。在引导原因状语从句的连词中,because语气最强,表示主句的直接原因,从句可放在主句之前或之后。当回答疑问副词why开头的问句时一般用because引导的原因状语从句。
He can't deliver his lectures today because he has got a bad cold.
他今天不能去讲课了,因为他患了重感冒。
2.as引导原因状语从句
as表示十分明显的原因或已知的事实,一般说明因果关系,着重点在主句,语气比because 弱,常译为“由于”。as引导的从句常放在句首。
As it is known to everybody, I won't spend too much time on this matter.
由于大家都知道这件事,我就不在这件事上多花时间了。
3.since/now that引导原因状语从句
since引导的从句通常放在句首,常表示已为人知的原因或理由,语气较弱,常译为“既然”。now that和since意思接近,常互换,其引导的从句通常放在句首。
Now that/Since you are busy enough we won't trouble you any more.
既然你们忙得够呛,我们就不再麻烦你们了。
Since no one has read the book, we can't discuss it.
既然没人读过这本书,我们就不能对它进行讨论。
[名师点津]
for意思是 “因为”,是并列连词,用来说明、补充解释或表示一种推理,所以for引导的句子一般不放在句首。
It must have rained last night,for the ground is wet.
昨天晚上肯定下雨了,因为地面是湿的。

【导读】 《狮子、女巫与魔衣橱》(The Lion,the Witch and the Wardrobe)是英国作家C·S·路易斯所著的《纳尼亚传奇》系列奇幻儿童文学小说第二部。该书叙述四个在第二次世界大战中逃难的英国学生意外地发现了一个神秘而充满魔力的衣柜。这个衣柜竟是通往另一个神奇世界“纳尼亚”的通道。
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (excerpt)
Once there were four children whose names were Peter,Susan, Edmund and Lucy. This story is about something that happened to them when they were sent away from London during the war because of the air-raids. They were sent to the house of an old Professor who lived in the heart of the country,ten miles from the nearest railway station and two miles from the nearest post office. He had no wife and he lived in a very large house with a housekeeper called Mrs Macready and three servants. He himself was a very old man with shaggy white hair which grew over most of his face as well as on his head, and they liked him almost at once; but on the first evening when he came out to meet them at the front door he was so odd-looking that Lucy (who was the youngest) was a little afraid of him, and Edmund (who was the next youngest) wanted to laugh and had to keep on pretending he was blowing his nose to hide it.
But when next morning came there was a steady rain falling, so thick that when you looked out of the window you could see neither the mountains nor the woods nor even the stream in the garden.
“Of course it would be raining!” said Edmund. They had just finished their breakfast with the Professor and were upstairs in the room he had set apart for them—a long, low room with two windows looking out in one direction and two in another.
《狮子、女巫与魔衣橱》(节选)
从前,有这么四个孩子,他们的名字分别叫彼得、苏珊、爱德蒙和露茜。下面讲的故事就是他们亲身经历过的事情。那是在战争时期,为了躲避空袭,他们被送离伦敦,来到一位老教授的家里。这位老教授的家在英国的中部,离最近的火车站有十英里远,离最近的邮局也有两英里。他没有老伴,和女管家玛卡蕾蒂太太以及另外三个仆人一起住着一所很大很大的房子。教授已经老态龙钟,一头蓬乱的白发。孩子们一来就喜欢上了他。但在第一天傍晚,当他从大门口出来迎接他们的时候,他的这副怪模样使年龄最小的露茜感到有点害怕,而爱德蒙呢(除了露茜他年龄最小),却忍不住要笑,他只好一次又一次地装作擦鼻涕,这才没有笑出声来。
但第二天早晨,却淅淅沥沥地下起雨来了。雨很大,透过窗子向外望去,你既看不见山,也看不见树林,甚至连花园里的小溪也看不见。
“没有办法,天大概还要下雨!”爱德蒙说。他们刚和教授一起吃完早饭,就来到楼上教授给他们安排的房间。这是一个狭长而又低矮的房间,两头各开着两扇窗子可以看到外面。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Seventeen is my favorite magazine.There are many things to learn from this magazine.Here are the sections I find most helpful:fashion,beauty,health,love life,and your life.These sections aid me in making decisions,because unfortunately I'm very indecisive(犹豫不决的).This magazine tells girls how to deal with problems in their teenage years.
What inspires me most is the stories about the heroism(英雄气概)shown by teenagers.They show me that no matter where you are,you can help others in trouble.I hope to be a hero to many people in the future.Even if I don't get a huge spread of my picture in my favorite magazine,the satisfaction of helping others will be enough.
The freebies(免费赠品)are another reason why I enjoy it.Every month there is a calendar in the magazine that offers free prizes every day.All that is required to win them is to type the keyword in the form on the magazine's website.Winning anything from a pair of underwear to a $1,000 gift card is very easy!
A funny aspect of Seventeen is the“Traumarama”.Readers share their shameful stories with other readers,and we all get a good laugh out of it.It's interesting that the entire world has a chance to read about your humiliation,which you considered painful before,but now you're in a place where you can laugh at it too.
Seventeen.com is the website that corresponds(与……一致)with the magazine.I visit the site regularly,not only to read more articles,but to play the games.This website has some of the best Internet games out there.
To sum this whole thing up,Seventeen is my favorite magazine because it is inspiring and interesting.After reading this magazine you will be buying new products because of the ads,and changing your style because of the articles.

When the lazy days of summer arrive and the schedule is filled with swimming, camp, and family vacations, it can be a challenge to find time for learning. But kids' reading skills don't have to grow cold once school's out. Here are some ways to make reading a natural part of their summer fun.
Explore your library. Visit your local library to borrow books and magazines that your kids haven't seen before. Many libraries have summer reading programs, book clubs, and reading contests(比赛)for even the youngest borrowers. With a new library card, a child will feel extra grownup by borrowing books.
Read on the road. Going on a long car trip? Make sure there are some books at the back seat. When you stop driving, read the books aloud. Get some audio books in libraries and listen to them together during driving time.
Make your own books. Pick one of your family's favorite parts of summer-whether it's baseball, ice cream, or the pool-and have your child draw pictures of it or cut out pictures from magazines. Stick(粘贴)the pictures onto paper to make a booklet(小册子)and write text for it. When you've done, read the booklet together. Reread it whenever you like!
Keep in touch. Kids don't have to go away to write about summer vacation. Even if your family stays home, they can send postcards to tell friends and relatives about their adventures(冒险经历). Ask a relative to be your child's pen pal and encourage them to write each week.
Keep up the reading habits. Even if everything else changes during the summer, keep up the reading habits around your house. Read with your kids every day-whether it's just before bedtime or under a shady tree on a lazy afternoon. And don't forget to take a book to the beach! Just brush the sand off the pages—it's no sweat!
【语篇解读】 这是一篇说明文。文章就暑假期间父母应该如何为孩子安排阅读提供了一些方法。
5.The purpose of the passage is to .
A.encourage parents to read
B.give advice on raising kids

[高考题型练习提能力]
Ⅰ.阅读理解
If there is one thing I'm sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio or the Internet. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives-the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It's already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic (基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do-as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.
It's quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I'm pretty sure how it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read-sports and international news, etc.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media (媒体). They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn't happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it's never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.
