21．（6分）It was rush hour on the morning of June 1 in the West Texas city of San Angelo. Heather Santellano, 36, was driving her white 2012 Mazda on Houston、Harte Frontage Road with her nine-year-old daughter and
ten-year- old son in the back. Suddenly, a red pickup truck cut them off. Santellano turned the wheel hard to the right, nding the Mazda skidding off the road and down an embankment(堤)that ended in a drop-off after about 50 feet. If the car didn't stop, it would go airborne and plunge onto the road some 20 feet below.
Then a bit of luck: As the car raced toward the edge, its undercarriage got stuck on the cement lip of the embankment ledge, stopping it cold. The occupants, however, were far from safe. The car had c
ome to rest on top of a retaining wall, literally teetering(摇摇欲坠)on the edge of disaster. One sudden move by anyone inside could nd it over.

He fastened the Mazda to an P-350 truck that had been driven over by one of the other rescuers. With the car cured, the group carefully opened the back doors and helped the children out.
But their departure shifted the car's weight, causing it to lean forward. The men, still on-the trunk, asked Santellano to jump into the back at to rebalance the weight. She did and then inched out the back door. Finally, the men carefully got off the trunk. Everyone was safe.

凭证是什么意思When we talk about music, what kind of feelings does it bring? Excitement… and relaxation. But what if the music lasts for hours?
We interviewed a group of musicians bad in Beijing during the weekend. They all said that hours of exposure to loud music can cau discomfort. One added that band members like to play at maximum volume (音量) and forget the harm that loud music can cau. The same thing not only occurs to musicians. It’s also not rare for daily urs since listening to loud music on loud sound equipment has become a part of modem life. According to the WHO, the practice has put more than a billion people around the world, aged 12-35, at risk of losing their hearing.
We also interviewed some headphone urs in the street, and most of them said that they are not heavy urs but admitted they u headphones for hours on the subway and in the office or home. It’s easy for the people to gradually increa the volume without awareness, especially in a noisy environment. Often, headphone urs fail to realize they’re listening to audio at unsafe levels until rious hearing problems suddenly occur.
There are many reasons for hearing loss, including loud acoustic (听觉的) sources, drug abu, and dias. Experts suggest frequent medical checks and prevention measures.
Whether congenital (先天的) or acquired, loss of hearing is usually irreversible. “Once the hearing loss occurs, it’s already too late to be changed back to what it was before,” said Yang Shiming, expert of the Chine PLA General Hospital. “Early prevention, early identification and early treatment. If everyone could do the things, hearing loss and its harm could be kept to a minimum,” Yang said. Of cour, this appli es to every one of us.

23．（8分）China plans to launch 156 small satellites by 2025 toprovide Internet rvices in low sig
nal areas and placeswith adver natural environment, according toChinaAerospace Science and Industry Corporation(CASIC).
Due to environmental conditionsof derts,mountains and as, half of the world's population has noaccess to the Internet, and the information deficiencyhamperslocal development.
It will be China's first broadband Internet accesssystem with small satellites hovering in low orbit, whichwill also help meet the needs of commercial space development.
The project, named Hongyun, plans to nd the firstsatellite by 2019, and launch four more by 2020. By theend of 2025, CASIC plans to have all of the 156 satellites in operation.
The Hongyun Proiect, which focus on communication,remote nsing and navigation, can offer communicationand Internet rvices for China and less-developed 3countries with reduced latency. Meanwhile, the projectcan also benefit emergency communication, nsor data collection and remote control of unmanned equipment.
Currently, international maritime satellites are widely ud in communications in mountainous areas and airplanes, but tho satellites, 36, 000 kilometers abovethe Earth, have time and signal delay as well as high cost for providing rvices.
The small satellites nt by the Hongyun Project will hover in low orbits only hundreds of kilometers to 1, 000 kilometers above the Earth, and thus could improve the Internet access. However, the low orbit satellites may face challenges in power supply, as they need more energyto reduce the influence of air-resistance compared to highorbit satellites. Experiments are needed to determinewhether solar energy alone is enough.
1、According to the passage, ________________.
A．156satellites will be launched by the Hongyun Project by 2020
B．international maritime satellites can cau signaldelay
C．The Hongyun Project may not encourage commercialspace development
D．low orbit satellites are currently ud widely incommunications in mountainous areas
