For the next decade，the Tiangong Space Station will be China’s principal destination．Although not as large as the International Space Station，it will have a broadly similar capacity to perform scientific experiments．China also plans to land a small rover(探测车)on the far side of the moon in 2018，which will be a world first．Also in the advanced planning stages is a over to go to Mars．Additionally，designs for a Long March 9 rocket are being studied．With the first launch of the rocket due in 2025，China could very well be in a position to land astronauts on the moon by 2030．
China’s space program is making progress year upon year．It is quite clear that a dramatic shift in space power is taking place．

Binge-watching is when a person watches more than one episode of a show in quick succession(一连串，连续）". With developments in the speed and connectivity of the internet, increases in technology and the rise of on-demand entertainment companies, people can now have their favorite shows streamed directly to their television at their convenience.
This behavior is nothing new. In fact, " binge-watching" has been officially listed in dictionaries since 2015. The entertainment companies recognize this behavior and many take steps to encourage it. Often, instead of releasing each episode on a week-by-week basis, an entire series will become available concurrently. Once the episode finishes many platforms will display pop-ups with “you might like suggestions, or will automatically play the next episode”.
However, recent research suggests that out of the more than half of British adults who watch more than one episode of a show back-to-back, almost a third have admitted missing sleep or becoming tired as a result; and one quarter have neglected their household chores. Next we’ll be missing work!
Bingeing has other connections-binge eating, binge drinking and binge smoking. All of them are often associated with a lack of control and a possible route to addiction. Lindsey Fussell, consumer group director, said: “The days of waiting a week for the next episode are largely gone, with people finding it hard to resist watching multiple episodes around the house or on the move.” If people find binge-watching hard to resist, coupled with the fact that it has shown to lead to negligence in many, are we witnessing the birth of a new type of addiction?
The countless of information and entertainment that television and online media can bring us is, many would say, a good thing. However, when the activity begins to bleed into other areas, causing us to stop functioning then it becomes a problem. So, what's the answer? Moderation! Neither a tiny amount, nor too much. After all, as the old proverb says, “A little of what you fancy does you good.”
28. How did the writer develop the first paragraph?
A. Listing some examples
B. Telling a story.
C. Giving a definition
D. Analyzing the cause and effect
29. Which of the following words can best replace the underlined word in paragraph 2 ?
A. similarly B. gradually C. naturally D. necessarily
30. What Lindsey said in Paragraph 4 implies that _____________.
A. people have no patience to do work
B. people can’t control their movements
C. people are addicted to watching television
D. people can’t resist the temptation
31. What advice did the writer give at last?
A. To watch episodes in a moderate way.
B. To draw life lessons from the episodes.
C. To enjoy entertainment as much as possible.
D. To keep online media from stopping functioning.
D

A. J. shut the door of the truck. “Ready,” he said. His dad started the truck. It was six o’clock and freezing, but the strong morning sun promised warmer temperatures. It had been colder than normal over the past week, and the ground and ponds were already frozen.
“After we check on the cows,” Dad said, “you should have some time to practice roping cattle.” A. J. wanted to enter the rodeos (??×?????±í??) in which cowboys rode wild horses, and caught cattle with ropes.
The best professionals could break from the gate on horseback, rope a calf(????), and hog-tie the calf in less than ten seconds. So far, A.J. needed nearly a minute and a half, but he’d only been at it for a few months.
The truck bounced down the dirt road. In a few minutes, they passed through the field gate.
A. J. pulled a pair of telescopes. The black spots of cows on the far hill took shape. The cows gathered around the pond. A. J. guessed they wanted the water locked under the ice. Suddenly, they heard extremely frightened shouts from one cow. Dad stopped the truck, and he and A. J. stared at the frozen pond anxiously.
A calf lay on the ice in the middle of the pond. A cow, no doubt the calf’s mother, stood onshore, shouting desperately. The calf struggled to get up but slipped and fell each time.
The morning sun seemed warmer. Too warm. A. J. knew that the situation was urgent. If the calf lay there too long, she could fall through the ice and drown. Dad eased the truck down the hill and stopped at the edge of the pond. “No telling how long she’s been there,” he said. “The ice could be about to melt. I don’t think we can risk it.” Dad shook his head, “It’s just not safe.”
Paragraph 1:
????A. J. watched the calf, whose eyes were wide with fright. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
????It would be just like rodeo practice, A. J. thought, trying to stay calm. ___________________

Paragraph 1:
????A. J. watched the calf, whose eyes were wide with fright. Though frightened, the calf gathered all her strength to get up but slipped over and over again. Seeing the danger, the mother cow let out shouts with horror and cast helpless glances at A. J. and his dad as if begging them for help. An atmosphere of sadness blanketing the whole world, every nerve in A. J.’s body screamed at him that he must save the poor calf. All of a sudden, an idea came into his mind like a flash.
Paragraph 2:
????It would be just like rodeo practice, A. J. thought, trying to stay calm. He rushed to the truck to grab the rope quickly, aimed it at the calf and let it go. Luckily, he made it at the first attempt! With palms sweating, he and his dad struggled to pull the calf out of the frozen pond. After what seemed like a century, they managed to save the calf. Seeing the calf running to her mother happily, A. J. felt comforted and glad that what he had learned helped save a life.
