One possible solution to the problem has recently been suggested by an American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan: he believes that before the Earth's resources are completely used up it will be possible to change the atmosphere (大气圈) of Venus (金星) and so create a new world almost as large as the Earth itself. The difficulty is that Venus is much hotter than the Earth and has only a tiny amount of water. Sagan suggests that algae (藻类), plant life that can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time produce oxygen, should be produced in conditions similar to those on Venus. The algae will be placed in small rockets. Spaceships will then fly to Venus and fire the rockets into the atmosphere. In a fairly short time, the algae will break down the gasses in the atmosphere and change them into oxygen that people can breathe. But before man can set foot on Venus, it will be necessary for the oxygen to produce rain to cool the planet, so that after a few years conditions like those on Earth will be produced. If the experiments are successful, life will become possible there but it will not be pleasant at first. When they go to Venus, the first citizens will have to take plenty of water with them and get used to days and nights lasting 60 Earth days. But there will also be some advantages. They will live longer because their hearts will suffer less stress than on Earth. CADBC Men may eventually move to Venus because ______________________. A. there are many people on the Earth B. we have used too much oil and water C. the limited resources can't support life on the Earth D. people take up too much space Now it is difficult for us to move to Venus because ______________________. A. it is too hot for men to land on B. there is no water there C. we cannot change the environment there D. it's a long distance for us to go there The algae play a very important role in the possible solution because _______________. A. they can be produced easily on the Earth B. there are a lot of them on Venus C. they can be easily carried to Venus D. they can live in hot and cold conditions and produce oxygen The first citizens will find life on Venus not pleasant because ___________. A. their hearts will suffer more stress B. their days and nights will last quite long C. there are not any houses there D. there is too much water there One of the advantages the first citizens on Venus will enjoy is ___________. A. they will have much more space B. they won't suffer from heart disease C. their life will last longer D. they will have better living conditions Since the late 1960s a growing number of women have expressed a strong dissatisfaction with any marriage arrangement in which the husband and his career are the most important considerations in the marriage. By the end of the 1970s, for example, considerably less than half of the women in the United States still believed that they would put their husbands and children ahead of their own careers. More and more American women have come to believe that they should be equal partners in their marriages. This stage of marriage, although still unusual in most American marriages at present, will grow most rapidly in the future. In an equal marriage, the wife gets a full-time job or career which has equal importance to her husband's. The long-standing division of labor between husband and wife comes to an end. The husband is no longer the main provider of family income, and the wife no longer has the main responsibilities for household duties and raising children. Husband and wife share all these duties equally. Power over family decisions is also shared equally. The rapid change in women's attitudes toward marriage in the 1970s reflected the rapid changes in the larger society. The Women's Liberation Movement appeared in the late 1960s, demanding an end to all forms of prejudice against females. An Equal Rights Amendment (修正案) to the US Constitution was proposed which would make any form of prejudice on the basis of sex illegal, and though it has failed to be confirmed, it continues to have millions of supporters.

Rote-learning (死记硬背), spoon-fed education, produces a brand of kids that don't know what to do when entering university. They are disciplined into following, not leading. Yet the future depends on creativity and imagination. The world needs creators, makers and shakers of the new centuries, not the followers of the past centuries. As the numbers increase at college and university level, more students from the lower ends are likely to be thrown into a process designed to choose only learners that have proved excellent in listening to teachers. There are three ways to learn: looking, listening and doing. Students and teachers today are a product of learning by listening. The computer may not be liked by traditional teachers, who use rote-learning to put information, which will be out of date in a few years, into the heads of the students. With computer learning you learn by looking, listening and doing; you use three methods of learning, not just one. Therefore, you can learn faster. The changing speed of information is frightening. What we learn now will be out of date in the near future. So what students are learning now at school may be replaced by the time they finish university. We have to learn by choice what to forget. Rote-learning for exams is one thing, but wouldn't it be better to learn how to learn? The students at university today could possibly be doing a job in the not too distant future which has not yet been invented. DDBBB According to the author, the future doesn't need ____________. A. creativity B. imagination C. creators D. followers In the author's view, how can students learn well? A. Carefully listen to the teacher in class. B. Take down every single word said by the teacher. C. Learn all the notes by heart. D. Combine listening with looking and doing. What does the author mean by "The changing speed of information is frightening"? A. We don't have enough time to adjust ourselves to the speed of information. B. What we learned today may not be useful tomorrow. C. The pace of life is too fast. D. The world is changing every minute. What does the last sentence of the passage tell us? A. Rote-learning is completely harmful. B. Students may have to do jobs which are not yet in existence. C. It's better to learn how to learn than learn what to forget. D. Students must imagine the future The author's attitude towards rote-learning is _________. A. approving B. disapproving C. confident D. opposite to what the words say
