John Farish, an engineer who was staying at one of the city's finest hotels in St. Francis, remembered the very early morning of Wednesday, April 18, 1906. I was awakened by a loud noise, which might be compared to the mixed sounds of a strong wind flowing through a forest and the breaking of waves against a rock. In less time than it takes to tell, a shake, similar to that caused by a nearby explosion (爆炸), shook the building to its bases and it began a series of the most lively movements. Together with a frightening sound, it was followed by big crashes (碰撞) as the neighboring buildings and chimneys fell to the ground.

A few blocks away, in a comfortable room in the Palace Hotel, the world's greatest singer, Enrico Caruso, was asleep after a good performance at the Opera House the night before. He awoke to find: Everything in the room was going round and round. The light was trying to touch the ceiling and the chairs were all chasing each other. Crash — crash — crash! It was a terrible scene. Everywhere the walls were falling and clouds of yellow dust were rising. My God, I thought it would never stop!

And at the same moment, in another part of the city, Jesse Cook, a policeman, reported: The whole street was undulating (起伏波动). It was as if the waves of the ocean were coming toward me, and waving as they came.

It was, of course, an earthquake, one of the largest ever that hit North America, and the first of 27 separate quakes that day. The first shock — at 5: 12: 05 a. m. — lasted more than 40 seconds. It was by far the largest, about 8. 3 on the Richter scale; its epicenter (震源) was just off the coast, around the Pacific.

Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It's turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It depending on NASA HUNCH high school class, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.

HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon's students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they're close to a solution. "We don't give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers," says Florence Gold, a project manager.

"There are no tests," Gordon says. "There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than ‘Are you working towards your goal? ' Basically, it's ‘I've got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA. ' Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and… it's not a very nice thing at time. It's a hard business review of your product."

Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills. "These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don't teach." And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.

Step into Moving to Mars, an exhibition of Mars mission and colony design at London's Design Museum, and immediately you have good reasons not to move there.

Frightening glowing wall-texts announce that Mars wasn't made for you; that there is no life and precious little water; that, dressed in a spacesuit, you will never touch, taste or smell the planet you now call "home". As Lisa Grossman wrote forNewScientista couple of years ago, "What's different about Mars is that there is nothing to do there except try not to die".

It is an odd beginning for such a celebratory exhibition, but it provides a valuable, dark background against which the rest of the show can sparkle (闪耀)—a show that is , as its chief manager Justin remarks, "not about Mars, this is an exhibition about people".

Moving along, there is a quick yet clear flash through what the science-fiction writer Robinson calls "the history of Mars in the human mind". A Babylonian clay tablet and a Greek vase speak to early ideas about the planet. A poster for the originalTotalRecallfilm reminds us of Mars's psychological threat.

The main part of the show is our current plans for the Red Planet. There are real spacesuits and models of 3D-printed Martian settlements and suitable clothing and furniture. Mission architectures and engineering sketches line the walls. Real hammers meant for the International Space Station are wall-mounted beside a low-gravity table that has yet to leave, and may indeed never leave, Earth.

This, of course, is the great strength of approaching science through design: reality and assumption can be given equal visual weight, drawing us into an informed conversation about what it is that we actually want from a future on Mars.

Over the next 50 years, we are going to send more and better robots to Mars.  There is a limit to what robots can tell us, though, so eventually we will have to send people to study the planet.

Before people can visit Mars, we need to invent a spaceship that can take us there.  Depending on where Mars and Earth are in their orbits around the sun, it could take between six months to a year to get there.

The moon is much closer, and we were there more than 40 years ago. Over the next 10 years, we are going to work on building a new spacecraft.

Once we return to the moon, we are going to build a station so that people can live and work on the moon for months at a time. This is important so that we have a place to start from when we want to visit Mars.

By the time you are old enough to be an astronaut, we will have people spending months on the moon. By the time you are old enough to be a commander of a space mission, we will be taking trips to Mars. By the time your kids are old enough to be astronauts, we may have people living on Mars. Wouldn't it be cool to get a postcard from someone who was building a house on Mars?

A. Mars is very far away.

B. People will go to live on Mars one day.

C. Wouldn't it be cooler if it was you who sent the postcard?

D. Using this craft, we will practice the skills we need to go to Mars.

E. Those robots will send back better pictures, maps, and weather reports.

F. It would be possible for us to go to Mars in a spacecraft in the near future.

G. However, it is also important because it gives us practice with living away from Earth.

Whenever I had nothing to do, a familiar depression would climb on my back. I'd been this way for months. So I went to my friend for 1, who lived on the top of a steep hill.

Hurrying into the house I began to 7 the finger. In the kitchen a table saw lay on the floor. I lifted up each foot and looked underneath to ensure I wouldn't 8on it.

The Moon's near side, the one we all see, has been the target of many robotic and human missions. However, its far side, also  (call)the dark side because it faces away from the Earth and little  (know)about, has never been explored. That changed on Jan. 2, 2019, when Chinese spacecraft Chang'e 4 made a soft landing on  is often referred to as the dark side.

The landing is  example of China's growing desire  (compete) with the American, Russian and European space programs. China also wants to  (strength) its position as a regional and international power.

One of the great  (difficulty) in exploring the far side of the Moon is that it blocks all radio signals,  (make) it impossible to communicate with the Earth. To overcome this difficulty, in 2017, the Chinese National Space Administration launched a satellite to orbit the Moon and relay the signals. Once a  (rely)communication path was in place, Chang'e 4 could send back information.

Chang'e 4 will make astronomical observations and examine the structure and mineral composition of the ground above and below the surface,  researchers believe will provide insights into the solar system's early days and perhaps even the origin of the first stars.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Scholars think of the Baby Boom (婴儿潮) generation as those Americans born between 1946 and 1964. But in my opinion, a Baby Boomer is an American born after the Second World War who remembers the Apollo 11 moon landing. For those of us, Apollo 11 was the biggest thing that had ever happened in our lives. It marked our lives just as the Great Depression and the Second World War had marked our parents' and grandparents' lives. We were the last generation to have been born before humans became a space-faring species; we were the first generation to come of age as members of that space-faring species.

In July, 1969, I was eight years old. My parents, younger sister, and I were spending our first summer in our new house, which we moved into the last April. I was enjoying a typical child's summer filled with lemonade and watermelon, fireworks and hide-and-seek. And there was the moon, which made this typical child's summer become unusual.

I had taken to science early and was interested in the space program in particular. I never missed any launch on TV as well as the related reports in newspaper. In my eyes, rockets, spaceships, spacemen, and others about outer space were all so attractive that I could never resist them. What had been science fiction for my parents was science fact for me. And Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and Buzz Aldrin were my heroes.

I followed every report about Apollo 11from beginning to end. On the morning of July 16, Saturn V rocket, the most powerful machine made by human beings, pushed the three astronauts on their way into history. I watched the news reports of the trip to the moon on TV. Finally, on the afternoon of July 20, 1969 Armstrong and Aldrin landed their lunar spaceship, the Eagle, on the surface of the moon. I can't remember exactly watching much more of the moonwalk; I was young and sleepy, so I went back to bed. I watched Armstrong and Aldrin leave the moon the following day for the journey home, which ended eight of the most extraordinary days in human experience and in the life of one eight-year-old boy.

Being children, my sister and I went to bed early on that exciting evening……
