A Chinese space mining company has designed a robot that can capture waste material left behind by spacecraft in outer space with a big net.

The state-run Xinhua news agency recently reported that the robot launched on the government's Long March 6 rocket along with several satellites. The robot will also investigate deep space to observe small objects in the universe. The 30-kilogram robot, called NEO-01 , was developed by Origin Space. Pounded in 2019 and based in the southern Chinese tech hub(技术中心)Shenzhen, Origin Space has been devoted to exploring and using space resources, according to the company. The company says the robot will lead the way for future technologies capable of mining on asteroids(小行星).

The world's first asteroid mining company, Planetary Resources, was established in 2009. Since then, more than 12 businesses around the world have entered the industry, including 3D Systems of the United States and Japan's Astroscale. Astroscale's technology uses magnets (磁铁)to gather up space waste. But a report on the Origin Space website says NEO-01 will use a net to capture waste and then bum it. Thousands of satellites have been launched worldwide. As they are used too long, many end up as waste and put other operating satellites at risk.

Su Meng is the founder of Origin Space. He said the company plans to launch many space telescopes and more spacecraft to begin the first for-profit mining of asteroids by 2045. Su added that NEO-01 will serve as a prototype (雏形)of future space mining robots, which can use rich mineral resources on asteroids to support the development of the space industry.

The Xinhua news agency reported that China was increasing efforts to land a spacecraft on a near-Earth asteroid to collectmaterials. China is also speeding up a plan to build a defense system against near-Earth asteroids. The country aims to follow Russia and the United States in becoming a major space power by 2030. 4. Which of the following can correctly describe NEO-01? A. It weighs 60 kilograms.

B. It was created by Planetary Resources. C. It will be burnt after finishing its mission. D. It is mainly used to catch space waste.

5. What can be inferred from the text?

A. China will be the most powerful in space by 2030. B. Origin Space will open more mines on asteroids. C. It is those useless satellites that make space waste. D. The robot will look into deep space for more waste. 6. What does Su Meng think of NEO-01 ?

A. It is promising and rewarding. B. It has benefited the space industry. C. It's a long way to produce it. D. It'll help make money for the company. 7. What can be the best title for the text? A. NEO-01 , A Smart Robot Used in Space B. A Chinese Robot Can Catch Space Waste C. A New Robot Makes China a SpacePower D. NEO-01 , the Pioneer of Future Space Robots

C

Being an Olympian (奥运会选手) demands focus, determination, and a competitive spirit. Plus, representing your country is a lot of pressure. However, two athletes recently showed the world another quality that is definitely worth championing.

Qatar's Mutaz Essa Barshim and Italy's Gianmarco Tamberi were competing in the high jump on Sunday when they reached a stalemate (僵局). Both men had managed to jump over a surprising 2.37 meters with no faults along the way. However, after three attempts neither managed the next level of 2.39 meters.

An Olympic official suggested ajump-offbetween the two friends and rivals (竞争对手) to determine who would get the gold medal. But Barshim had another plan to reward their efforts.

“Can we have two golds?” he asked the official.

The official agreed and the two men jumped for joy. This was the first time a gold medal had been shared since 1912. “He is one of my best friends, not only on the track, but outside the track. We work together. This is a dream come true.” shared Barshim.

The decision to share the medal was particularly meaningful to Tamberi. The Italian had suffered an ankle injury that prevented him from competing in the Rio Olympics in 2016, and it nearly put an end to his career altogether. So this year he brought along his cast to this year's Olympics with “Road to Tokyo 2021” to inspire him along the way.

For Barshim, the gold has topped off his already impressive medal collection, having received a bronze and a silver medal in 2012 and 2016 respectively.

Despite all the glory of receiving a gold medal for their countries, their achievement means so much more. These two individuals, trying to do their very best for their countries, have provided a wonderful example to all those competing in sports. They've summed up exactly what it means to take part in a global event with a generous and compassionate (有同情心的) spirit.

8. What happened to Barshim and Tamberi in the competition? A. They ended in a tie. B. They quit the competition. C. They set a new record. D. They ran out of strength. 9. What does the underlined word “jump-off” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Debate. B. Vote.

C. Celebration. D. Extra round.

10. Why was the gold medal particularly meaningful to Tamberi?

A. It could bring him a lot of money. B. It may make up for his regret in 2016. C. It was a glory for his country. D. It could complete his medal collection. 11. What does the author mainly want to convey in the text? A. The importance of sharing. B. The glory of winning gold medals. C. The valuable and special team spirit. D. The considerate and sharing Olympic spirit.

D

Texas has been one of the most restrictive gun-rights states in America.Thanks to a new law,however,the state will be one of the most relaxed,to the degree that police are discouraged from even asking about someone's guns. And if they do, they may not have much power to do anything if the person refuses to show a license.

To be sure, the law is strict in its own way,offering a model for regulation. Under the law, open-carry citizens have to be licensed, a process that includes safety and shooting tests. They also have to show no prior psychological problems, and they have to be at least 21 years old.

It is true that gun violence dropped sharply after restrictive laws were put in place in countries like Great Britain and Australia. However,the US public seems more interested than ever in weapons and the power they convey,despite gun control groups' concern over the increase of violence. Most states in America have steadily

expanded gun rights since the end of a 10-year assault(攻击)weapons ban in 2004. Black Friday this year saw the biggest gun cache(贮存)ever purchased in one day.

Considering those trends,there's a heated debate about whether the new Texas law is a model piece of legislation(立法)for a changing America,or a walking disaster just begging for trouble. As the law doesn't provide any punishment for those who refuse to show a license to a police officer, critics fear that officers may find it tough to handle potentially deadly situations. After all, armed citizens will no longer be considered suspicious, even though a lot of people might be alarmed by the sight. Most police in Texas have been told to not engage gun carriers unless they are doing something questionable or appear drunk.

For sure,New Year's Day will be an exciting one for Texas gun owners. What's not yet known is how the rest of Texas will respond.

12. All of the following are required in the new Texas law for open carry EXCEPT A. age limit B. mental condition C. online registration D. gun-operating skills

13. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3? A. The reason for putting forward the new Texas law. B. The present situation of gun possession in America. C. The impact of the assault weapons ban in 2004. D. The inaction of the US government as to gun control. 14. What do critics think the new Texas law will probably lead to? A. Heavier workload for policemen. B. Disrespect for officers. C. Lack of trust among citizens. D. Difficulty in crime prevention.

15. What is the author's attitude towards the new Texas law? A. Negative. B. Cautious. C. Indifferent. D. Approving.
