The night started out ordinarily enough. Jack and Tara,our 1 ,were in their respective beds surrounded by toy animals. My husband Pat and I went to sleep 2 .
3 after midnight, Jack quietly touched me. "Mommy,I want to stay with you. I promise I won't take much room.”I shifted 4 to make room. My son soon fell asleep.
An hour later, Tara cried and I carefully went downstairs. "Mommy,my 5 is all stuffed up(堵住).I can't really breathe very well. Will you please 6with me a little while?" Tara doesn't often get up at night, 7 I decided to be there for her. She soon fell asleep. I returned to my own bed. I was determined to sleep. But to my 8 ,I found Jack sleeping on my side of the bed. He looked so 9 that I couldn't remove him. Quietly and carefully,I lay down between 10 and Jack.
I did manage to get some sleep 11 I heard Tara's voice again. I returned to 12 Tara. "Mom,please lie down with me a little bit. I had a bad dream,and I'm so 13 ”"Of course, honey. It was only a dream. Mommy's here and 14 is okay.”We fell asleep 15 each other's arms.
Even in my sleepy state, I thought of 16 these nights of merry-go-round(—連串的繁忙活動(dòng))will be over. In their place, my twins will be grown. 17 before I,m ready, our children's rooms will be much too 18 and empty. So it is especially on days when I'm worn out after a night on this mom's merry-go-round that I remind 19 that these very days and nights are,in fact, "the good old days",ever so 20 .

Planet Hunter
When Geoff Marcy was 14, his parents bought him a telescope. Every night, he would go onto the roof outside his window to see the wonders of the sky.
"What excited me most was whether there were planets(行星)in other solar(太陽的)systems where life might exist," he says. "I decided to try to find planets orbiting(沿............. 軌道運(yùn)行)other stars like our sun.”
And he did. " My fellow researcher Paul Butler and I found our first planet in 1995 ,”Dr. Marcy says. "We worked for ten years without finding anything!But we stuck with it,and our patience paid off.”
Since then,the two scientists have discovered 65 of the more than 100 planets found orbit?ing other stars. Dr. Marcy and Dr. Butler also spotted the first " family" of three planets. In June 2002 they announced another discovery:a Jupiter-like(像木星一樣的)planet orbiting star 55 Cancri.
At first, the two researchers found only planets that orbit close to stars. Recently, the sci?entists found planets farther out. The planet orbiting 55 Cancri is a major breakthrough;it is the first sighting of a large gas planet about the same distance from the star as Jupiter is from the sun.
Why is this important? Scientists think that life on the earth may exist because of two spe?cial features(特征)in our solar system. The first is Jupiter.
"Because it's so big,Jupiter pulls comets and asteroids(小行星),or they all come and hit the earth. " Dr. Marcy explains. " Without Jupiter, life on the earth would likely have been destroyed.”
A second feature is that the earth is a rocky planet where liquid water,which is necessary for life,can exist. Unlike gas planets,rocky planets like the earth have surfaces where water can gather in pools and seas,which may support life. A huge space exists between the Jupiter?like planet and two other planets that lie close to 55 Cancri. Is there an Earth-like planet in the space, too small for us to notice? If so,says Dr. Marcy, "We would have two striking similarities to our solar system:a Jupiter-like planet and an Earth-like planet. And there may be life!"
( ) 1. What can we learn about Dr. Marcy from the passage?
A. He is fond of watching Jupiter.
B. He is from a scientist family.
C. He dislikes working with Paul Butler.
D. He is interested in finding life in outer space.
( ) 2. Which of the following is true of the recent discovery?
A. The planet is not as protective as Jupiter.
B. The planet is close to star 55 Cancri.
C. The planet proves to be a gas planet.
D. The planet is as large as Jupiter.
( ) 3. Dr. Marcy thinks that life may exist in the 55 Cancri system because
A. he has found the system similar to the solar system
B. he has discovered an Earth-like planet there
C. he has discovered a rocky planet there
D. he has found signs of life in the system
( ) 4. "But we stuck with it" (in Paragraph 3) means
A. they felt discouraged
B. they carried on with it
C. they failed in their attempt
D. they made some progress

Often referred to as "The Lost City of the Incas",Machu Picchu is probably the most fa?miliar symbol of the Inca Empire(印加帝國).It was built around the year 1450, but abandoned (遺棄)a hundred years later,at the time of the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire. Forgotten for centuries, the site was brought to worldwide attention in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, an Amer?ican historian. Since then,Machu Picchu has become an important tourist attraction. It was an?nounced a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983. It is also one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. But it has recently come to light that the site may have been discovered and robbed secretly as early as in 1867 by a German businessman, Augusto Beras.
7,000 feet above sea level and located on a small hilltop between the Andean Mountain Range, the majestic city rises above the Urabamba Valley below. Then a huge wall,the Tai-wan-kai, handrails are all seems to be naturally formed in the same precipice. Machu Picchu is surrounded by tropical jungle. Separated into three areas―farming,urban, and religious(宗教的)一the structures are arranged so that the function(功能)of the buildings matches the form of their surroundings. The agricultural terracing and ditches(梯田和溝渠)take advantage of the nat?ural slopes(斜坡);the lower areas contain buildings occupied by farmers and teachers, and the most important religious areas are located at the crest of the hill,over-looking the fresh green Urabamba Valley thousands of feet below.
Hikers,tourists, and the early explorers describe similar emotions as they'climb their way through the Inca Trail. Many call the experience magical and say the area creates a wonderful green paradise, making it a must for anyone who travels to Peru.
( ) 1. Augusto Berns was said to
A. report his find to the government at the first time
B. be the first one who discovered the ruins of Machu Picchu
C. help make Machu Picchu a UNESCO World Heritage Site
D. work together with Bingham on research about Machu Picchu
( ) 2. The underlined word "crest" in the second paragraph can be best replaced by
A. bottom B. centre C. valley D. top
( ) 3. The three areas of Machu Picchu were arranged mainly according to
A. the quality of soil
B. the number of people
C. the need of transportation
D. the landform and social ranks
( ) 4. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. New Seven Wonders of the World
B. A Brief Introduction to Machu Picchu
C. Who Found "The Lost City of the Incas"
D. Why Machu Picchu Became a Hot Tourist Site
