Climate change is a big problem humans are facing. How can we deal with it? Reducing carbon emissions( 碳排放)

is important. But what if we could capture carbon dioxide(CO2) from the air and use it to do other things?

Recently, SpaceX founder Elon Musk said that his company is working on a new program. It's going to take CO2 out

of the air and turn it into rocket fuel.

It will not only be good for Earth, but “will also be important for Mars,” Musk tweeted. The air on Mars is made up

of 95 percent CO2. If we could turn CO2 into fuel, we could travel the long journey from Mars back to Earth in the future.

The idea may sound strange but it's not totally crazy. There are already some technologies that might help with this.

According to Di-Jia Liu, a chemist at the Argonne National Laboratory in the US, the carbon atoms( 原子) in CO2 and the

hydrogen(氢) atoms in water can be combined to make methane(甲烷) or ethanol(乙醇). They could be used as fuel. If

we do this on Mars, energy from the sun might be used as a catalyst(催化剂).

The idea will also make space travel more eco-friendly. “If the CO2-based fuel could be used in a rocket launch, we

could prevent 715 tons of CO2 from being emitted into the air,” said Stafford Sheehan from Air Company, a US company

that focuses on CO2 capture technologies.

5.What is SpaceX working on?

A.Reducing CO2 emissions.　　　　 B.Building a new rocket.

C.Turning CO2 into fuel.　　　　 D.Traveling long distances on Mars.

6.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?

A.How CO2 can be turned into fuel.　　　 B.Where CO2 can be taken.

C.Why the program should be done on Mars.　　D.How the energy from the sun can be used.

7.What can we learn from what Stafford Sheehan said?

A.Scientists use 715 tons of CO2 to launch a rocket.

B.Rocket launching is an environmentally-friendly activity.

C.There will be no CO2 emissions anymore.

D.SpaceX's idea would be good for the environment.

8.What is the best title for the passage?

A.Visit space with CO2　　　　 B.Climate change we face

C.Space travel in the future　　　　D.A new program on Mars

“A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots( 靴子)on.” said Mark Twain. In today’s

Internet world of “fake(假的)news,” lies spread even faster and the truth is having trouble finding its boots.

To make matters worse, most young people get news from social media sites where facts are mixed with rumors( 谣

言), half-truths and complete lies. This has led to young people becoming confused. In the latest PISA, which tested 15-

year-olds worldwide on academic subjects, fewer than one in ten of the examinees were reported to be able to recognize

fact from opinion. A Stanford University study showed that students at all levels of education could not tell teal news

from fake news. In one instance, 80 percent thought that a paid advertisement was a real news story.

Fake news is spread by people who have a prejudice( 偏见 ). They want to influence public opinion either for or

against something or someone. It is important, then, for young people to recognize when they are being used and to be

doubtful about online information.

Traditional media, such as newspapers and television, are still the more believable sources of information. Reporters

are professional trained to look for facts, and editors have the job of making sure those facts are correct. However, if you

are getting most of your information online, you have to be your own editor. In that case, the first thing to do is to look at

the writer of a post. Is this person known to be objective? Does the site where you read the post have a prejudice? Next,

look for other sources from mainstream media to make sure the information. In other words, by putting on your truth

boots you won’t be fooled into chasing lies.

12. Why is the quote mentioned in Paragraph 1?

A. To introduce the topic. B. To give an explanation.

C. To offer background information. D. To test readers.

13. What does the writer say about young people with news around?

A. They make fake news and spread it.

B. They are easily fooled by fake news.

C. They get worried about their education.

D. They can recognize facts from opinions.

14. According to the writer, what can help us avoid being fooled by fake news?

A. Only look for news through media.

B. Become a professional and trained reporter.

C. Compare the news from different sources.

D. Focus on the new instead of the writer.

15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. What Should a Reporter Do?

B. Who Makes and Spreads Fake New?
