For children, space is magical — a whole world is out there, with so many things to learn and stories to read. Here
are some children’s books about space and the solar system.
Mae among the Stars by Stasia Burrington
This beautifully illustrated picture book is attractive to young kids. It was inspired by the first African American
woman in space, Mae Jemison. It tells the story of Mae as a little girl, who always knew she had big dreams about space.
This is a great addition to a young kid’s collection, as a reminder to hold tight to dreams and never give up.
Space by Libby Jackson
This beautifully illustrated book gives kids a look at 50 women from around the world who were involved in
exploring space in some way, from the 19th century to the present day. This is a perfect gift for young kids who want to
know more about some of the lesser-known scientific achievements related to space exploration.
Chasing Space by Leland Melvin
This is Melvin’s story about being a football player-turned-astronaut, along with his recovery from an injury that
nearly left him deaf. Kids will love reading his story about how he faced challenges and advanced ahead, and he also
includes DIY experiments for kids to try, and a section of full-color photographs.
System and Beyond by David A．Aguilar
The book is full of beautiful illustrations of space, and is perfect for kids of all ages, exploring various planets and the
solar system. Unlike other kids’ space book, this is a National Geographic book written and illustrated by an award-winning
astronomer and space artist. Aguilar is also the former Director of Science Information and Public Outreach at the Harvard-
Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
21．What do Mae among the Stars and Space have in common?
A．They include less-known astronauts. B．They tell about scientists’ childhood.
C．They cover women exploring space. D．They are suitable for children of all ages.
22．Whose book attracts children showing interest in experiments?
A．Stasia Burrington’s. B．Libby Jackson’s.
C．Leland Melvin’s. D．David A．Aguilar’s.
23．What is unique to System and Beyond?
A．It has beautiful pictures. B．It tells about space artists.
C．It has won many grand awards. D．It was written by an astronomer.

A recent survey has shown that more men are adopting cats than women in recent years.
People used to think cats are preferred by women, and dogs are the trusty friends of men. However, a new research
from UK Pet Food uncovered an obvious gender (性别) difference in pet adoption numbers — with more men choosing to
adopt adult cats than women. Over the past four years, 1.5 million new male households have been benefiting from the
company of an adult cat, compared to around 1 million female households.
The research findings highlight the function of the bond that can exist between a man and his furry friend. Although
you may be fond of kittens with their playful and innocent nature, there’s a convincing reason to adopt an adult cat,
especially for men seeking a loyal and entertaining companion. Unlike the troublesome process of raising a kitten, adult cats
come with their personalities fully formed. This means that from day one, you can enjoy the companionship of a furry
friend that has already settled into their characters and behaviors.
For men with busy schedules or limited time for pet training, an adult cat provides instant companionship without the
demanding needs of a young kitten. They’re already litter-trained and accustomed to basic grooming routines, making them
an ideal choice for busy men.
Michael Bellingham, Chief Executive of UK Pet Food said: “I was interested to see that more men are adopting older
cats. Our research this year highlights the profound impact of pets — from fighting with loneliness to having a positive
effect on our mental health. We were surprised to see that one fifth of the people with mental illness we interviewed want
pets to be included in prescriptions, which can help treat their problems.”
So, for men considering bringing a furry companion into their life, adopting an adult cat might just be the perfect
choice.
24．What can we know about the new research in paragraph 2?
A．Compared to women, men prefers to adopt adult cats.
B．Dogs are man’s most loyal friends of all time.
C．Women are fond of being surrounded by lovely cats.
D．Millions of households gain benefits from protecting pets.
25．What’s the reason for man to choose adult cats?
A．They have the potential to care for their owners.
B．They are innocent and loyal to the caring adults.
