The rockets take astronauts and man-made satellites into space. The satellites are used for communication, weather monitoring and research. But how do satellites stay up without falling down?

There are two opposite forces (力量) acting on the satellite. One of them is the force of gravitation (地心引力), which tries to pull the satellite towards the earth. The other force is created by the rotation (旋轉(zhuǎn)) of the satellite around the earth. This force tries to take the satellite away from the earth. With these two forces, the satellite goes round and round. The gravitational pull of the earth (the force which pulls everything towards the ground) is like a rope which keeps the satellite from flying away.

Everything that goes up has to come down. It is only a matter of time before a satellite comes back to the earth. As time goes by, the satellite loses its speed, which makes the gravitational pull stronger than the force pulling it away. This makes the satellite crash (墜落) down to the earth.

1.Which of the following uses of satellites is NOT mentioned?

A. communication

B. monitoring the weather condition

C. doing some research

D. taking pictures

2.The force that pulls the satellite towards the earth is created by ________.

A. the earth

B. the satellite itself

C. the rotation of the satellite

D. the rope

3.Why can’t the satellites fly away?

A. Because of the force from the earth.

B. Because the satellite is too big.

C. Because of the force created by the rotation of the satellite around the earth.

D. Because people on earth have made ropes to tie the satellites tightly.

4.The satellite will finally crashes down to the earth ________.

A. when it flies faster

B. when its speed slows down

C. when people cut the rope

D. when there is no electricity in it

5.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. There are four forces acting on the satellite.

B. The force of gravitation makes the satellite go round and round.

C. As time goes by, the satellite will finally fall down.

D. The satellite will stay in space forever.

Over time, the cuckoo(布谷鳥)has learned to get other birds to care for its babies. The cuckoo is an amazing bird. Most birds lay their eggs and look after them until their babies hatch out(孵出).Then they feed their babies until they are ready to leave the nest.

Some birds are not such good parents. Cuckoos lay their eggs in the nests of other birds and do not care for their own babies. They get other birds to act as the parents. The other birds are left with the work of bringing up the young cuckoos as well as their own babies!

If the cuckoo egg hatches first, the baby cuckoo will often push the other eggs out of the nest so that it can get all the attention of its new mother.

It will take all the food and the space in the nest.
