C.No, I can't.
D.That's all set.
We know that there is air all around the world. We could not breathe without air. Airplanes could not fly without air. Thy need air to lift their wings. Airplanes cannot fly very high because as they go higher the air gets thinner. If we go far enough away from the earth, we find there is no air. What is the sky? The sky is space. In this space there is nothing except the sun, the moon and all the stars. Scientists have always wanted to know more about the other worlds in the space. They have looked at them through telescopes and in this way they have found out a great deal. The moon is about 384,000 kilometers away from the earth. An airplane cannot fly to the moon but there is a thing that can fly even when there is no air. This is rocket.
I am sure that you are asking, “How does a rocket fly?” if you want to know, get a balloon and then blow it up until it is quite big. Do not tie up the neck of the balloon. Let go! The balloon will fly off through the air very quickly. The air inside the balloon tries to get out. It rushes out through the neck of the balloon and this pushes the balloon through the air. It does not need wings like an airplane. This is how a rocket works. It is not made of rubber like a balloon, of course. It is made of metal. The metal must not be heavy but it must be very strong. There is gas inside the rocket which is made very hot. When it rushes out of the end of the rocket, the rocket is pushed up into the air.
Rockets can fly fat out into space. Rockets with men inside them have already reached the moon. Several rockets, without men inside them, have been sent to other worlds much father away. One day rockets may be able to go anywhere in the space.
36. What color is the sky()?
A. It is blue .

37. When an airplane flies too high()?

B. it is much lighter than an airplane
C. it doesn’t have wings
D. it works like an untied balloon
39. Which of the following statements about a rocket is NOT true()?

短文翻译(英译汉)
As a child—and as an adult as well—Bill was untidy. It has been said that in order to counteract this, Mary drew up weekly clothing plans for him. On Mondays he might go to school in blue, on Tuesdays in green, on Wednesdays in brown, on Thursdays in black, and so on Weekend meal schedules might also be planned in detail.
Bill’s contemporaries, even at the age, recognized that he was exceptional. Every year, he and his friends would go to summer camp. Bill especially liked swimming and other sports. One of his summer camp friends recalled, “He was never a nerd or a goof or the kind of kid you didn’t want your team. We all knew Bill was smarter than us. Even back then, when he was nine or ten years old, he talked like an adult and could express himself in ways that none of us understood.” Bill was also well ahead of his classmates in mathematics and science. He needed to go to a school that challenged him to Lakeside—an all-boys’ school for exceptional students. It was Seattle’s most exclusive school and was noted for its rigorous academic demands.” Lakeside allowed students to pursue their own interests, to whatever extent they wished. The school prided itself on making conditions and facilities available that would enable all its students to reach their full potential. It was the ideal environment for someone like Bill Gates.
When we got there, the party was already in full swing. They had a bar in a separate room in the house and roommate and I walked right over to it as soon as we saw it. And man, did they have cheap drinks So we were like "yeah let's have a few." Of course at that point we weren't thinking about how we were going to get back to our dorm.
After two whiskey sours and two screw drivers, I was gone. I didn't realize that I was drunk until I hit my head on (the hard part of the couch) and felt absolutely no pain. One of my friends was trying to take my money away so I couldn't buy any more to drink. Not that it would have mattered anyway, as I was sneaking sips from other people' s drinks by then.
An hour later, I was completely drunk, and we made a group decision to leave the party. One problem, though, no one knew how to get home, so I drunkenly said" I know how to get home. Thanks for the great party!"
Of course, no one offered to walk us back. I guess they though that 8 girls, including 2 who were completely trashed, would be fine walking alone back to campus. And I guess they believed my drunken rambling, who knows.
Luckily, I have a pretty good sense of direction and we walked the 4 to 6 blocks back to campus. My roommate and I couldn't walk that well so the walk seemed to take forever. Once we got back to campus, however, we met up with this guy who was going to take us to another frat party just off campus (across the street from campus, actually). I was all pumped to go but--first things first---all of us had to pee.
So we stopped in a nearby dorm. One of my friends went in first and ended up overflowing the toilet (the funny thing is that she was stone sober). My drunk roommate and I then decided that we had to really pee and that we would just go back to our dorm.
So the two of us wandered back to our dorm, making a short stop at the emergency
phone to call a friend and tell hex that we were drunk. After that, we managed to get back to our dorm, without any problems.

Psychologists have discovered that even the most independent-minded of us will conform. to social pressure when we are with a group of people. In one classie experiment, people were showna vertical line and asked to find a line of identical length from a selection of three.
You might think that this is an absurdly easy task, and when people perform. it by themselves they do it very well. However, psychologists have discovered that we are very easily swayed by the opinions of other people when we do this task in a group. In one study, a group of three people was set up,where two of the people were confederates(同伙 )of the experimenter.When the confederates deliberately gave wrong answers,people were often swayed to give the wrong answer also. In fact, 75% of people gave at least o ne wrong answer, with some people conforming to peer pressure on every occasion.
But why do people conform. in this way? In an easy task like this, it seems that people do not want to step out of line with the prevailing opinion of the group. On more difficult tasks, people also conform. because they lose onfidence in their own ability to make decisions and prefer to trust the majority opinion instead.
A typical example of this kind of conformity arises when we come across people in distress. Would you help a woman who has been attacked in the street?It turns out that you are much more likely to go to her assistance if you are alone.When other people are also around,a diffusion of responsibility occurs. People are paralysed into inaction, because everyone assumes that someone else will go to the woman' s assistance.

A.seek independence
B.disobey orders
C.seek pleasure
D.follow what others do
26.What is the purpose of the experiment described in Paragraph 2? To().
A.explain why people would be influenced by the opinions of others
B.prove that people are easily influenced by the opinions of others
C.train the confederates of the experimenter as independent-minded
D.describe how people would be influenced by the opinions of others
27.In the last paragraph, according to the author,why wouldn’t one help the woman ?He().
A.thinks he has no responsibilities to give a hand
B.thinks he has has nothing to do with it
C.is too shy to give his helping hand
