Mark Kelly and Scott Kelly from the USA will give you the answer.Mark and Scott are twin brothers. They were once great astronauts in NASA（美国国家航空航天局）. From 2015 to 2016, Scott spent 340 days at the International Space Station. But Mark still stayed on the earth. Scientists wrote down some information about the twins before, during and after the space travel.

When Scott came back from space, he changed a lot. He was 5 cm taller than before. His eyesight became worse. He found that he couldn't see things clearly. Another change was that he couldn't move his legs easily just like before. Scientists also found that after Scott came back to the earth, it took him much longer to understand things. As for Mark, he could do so as well as before.Scientists say when people grow old, their telomeres（染色体端粒）will get shorter. Mark's telomeres kept getting shorter. However, during Scott's stay in space, his telomeres got longer.Further studies on the twins are still going on. NASA plans to send humans to Mars in the 2030s, and the twins' studies could help them get ready for those space trips.9.

It has made not only Chinese fans but also the world enjoy the beauty in Chinese poetry （诗歌）.Named after the ancient city of Xi’an in Shanxi province, the movie showed us ama zing life of poet Li Bai in fact. It also brought us back to the golden age in Chinese history—Tang Dynasty. Tang poems in the movie helped us get closer to a real Li Bai and his dreams. When Li Bai enjoyed nature, he said, “Its torrent dashes down three thousand feet from high; As if the Silver River fell from the blue sky （飞流直下三千尺, 疑是银河落九天）.”When he got into trouble, he said, “Heaven gave me talent for a reason; Spent now, riches return in season（天生我才必有用, 千金散尽还复来）.”Everyone in the cinema couldn't help spe aking them out loudly when they heard these classical poems again.Many parents brought their kids to watch the movie. After watching it, children had a better understanding of the poems in the textbooks. And poems from Li Bai gave them energy（能量）to get over the difficulties in life. Li Bai's lifelong friendship with Gao Shi also touched their heart and taught them to cherish（珍惜）friends around them.Li Bai has been away from us for a long time, but he is always the “immortal” in our hearts with his great poems.

African elephants live in family groups called herds（群）. All of the elephants in the herd take care of each other. The leader of the herd is an old mother elephant. She is the matriarch（族长）. A herd may have as few as eight or as many as 100 elephants. The other elephants follow the matriarch because sheknows how to keep them safe from coming danger.Elephants learn by watching and copying other elephants, and also learn from life. Baby elephants stay with their mothers until they are fully grown at about ten years old. Elephants live to be 50 or 60 years old. Elephants are smart animals with long memories. In the dry season, a matriarch can remember where water was found in the past. The herd will follow her there. She can also remember the safest place for baby elephants to cross a fast-moving river.Elephants talk to each other with rumbling sounds. Some rumbling sounds are so low and deep that people are unable to hear them. Elephants hear sounds not only with their ears, but also with their feet, and even trunks (long noses of the elephants). They also greet each other by touching with their trunks and feet. If danger appears, mothers beat their ears to call their babies to them.Other animals don't usually attack（攻击）elephants. However, a lion might try to attack a sick elephant or a baby. If this happens, the adult elephants circle around the baby elephants. The adults make louder sounds and hit the ground with their trunks. The matriarch puts herself between the lion and the herd. She beats her ears out to make herself look even larger. Then she lowers her herd and attacks the enemy（敌人）in a big cloud of dust（灰尘）.（1）According to Paragraph（段落）One, an elephant herd ______.A.has a father elephant as the leaderB.owns a matriarch who keeps it away from dangerC.always has several leaders and hundreds of elephantsD.remembers the safest place for baby elephants（2）Long memories help elephants to ______.A.choose their matriarchmunicate with each otherC.find water and cross the riverD.make louder sounds（3）What does the underlined word "rumbling" mean?A.低沉的B.尖细的C.高亢的D.认真的（4）Why do the adult elephants circle around their babies?A.To keep their babies safe.B.To welcome their friends.C.To attack their enemies.D.To put herself between the lion and the herd.（5）The passage mainly tells us about ______.A.why the elephants live in herdsB.what the elephants' living habits areC.how the elephants avoid being attackedD.how the elephants save their babies四、七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
