A team of Chinese scientists and climbers reached the top of Qomolangma at about 12:30 p.m．on Tuesday, May 23．It’s the second time since last year for the science expedition (考察) team to reach the top.

The team was made up of 13 Chinese scientists and climbers．They set off at a height of 8,300 metres for the top at about 3 a.m．After more than 8 hours of hard climbing, they arrived at the 8,830-metre weather station.

After fixing steel ropes, changing batteries and putting in wind speed and direction sensors (传感器), they finished improving the world’s highest automated(自动化的) weather station, which was setup by Chinese scientists last year．Besides, they collected ice-snow samples on the top for further research.

The weather station records temperatures, wind speeds and other key data for studying climate change．Climate scientists have found that global warming has had a large influence on the glacier number on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (青藏高原).

Over the last fifty years, the temperature on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has risen about 0.5℃ every ten years．Studying the ecosystem(生态系统) of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau will help scientists have a better understanding of the influence of climate change, and help scientists and the government make proper decisions.

Since the mid-20th century, China has sent different research expedition teams to Qomolangma．But because of limited resources and technologies, many key scientific questions are still unanswered, such as whether global warming can melt the ice at the top of Qomolangma, and how ecosystem can change as height increases to extremity.

27．How many times has the Chinese science expedition team reached the top since last year?

A．Once.                          B．Twice.                          C．Three times.                 D．Four times.

28．Which paragraph best describes the picture below?

A．Paragraph 1.                 B．Paragraph 2.                 C．Paragraph 3.                 D．Paragraph 4.

29．What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?

A．The way of scientists studying climate change.

B．The effort of government to solve climate change.

C．The influence of climate change on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

D．The importance of studying ecosystem of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

30．What can we know from the passage?

A．The team set of fat a height of 8,830 metres for the top at about 3 a.m.

B．The team collected rock samples on the top for further research.

C．China has setup the world’s highest automated weather station so far.

D．All the key scientific questions have been answered up to now.

When Mark walked empty-handed up the sand, the sun was shining brightly．The watching children were as disappointed as he was．They looked at each other and spoke softly so he couldn’t hear.

“Is that all?”

“Is he giving up?”

Mark knew crayfish usually hid in the darkness beneath rocks, only coming out at night to feed．How long would his crayfish remain there before it went back under the rocks?

Mark forced himself to be patient．He lay on his back in the sun, eyes closed, nearly asleep．Excitement and speed would only waste energy．Finally Mark rose and went back into the water.

Out in the bay, the crayfish was still there．Its feelers moved in the currents(水流)．

Mark took long, slow, deep breaths．He cheered himself up with encouraging words, “I can do it．I can．I can do it.” Over and over he told himself, hoping his mind would get the idea and believe it.

Up he went．Tired, burning, disappointed, annoyed．Floating on the surface, he told himself off.

“You hurried too much．Take your time．Prepare yourself．Don’t dive until everything feels right,” he spoke to himself calmly, and he felt the confidence building up inside him．“I can do it．I can do it.” He felt good．It was going to be a good dive．Breathing deeply, relaxing, concentrating．Three more breaths．One, two, three．Down!

Imagine you are walking through deep snow．As you walk, you leave footprints where you’ve been．That’s what happens when using technology, such as computers, mobile phones and tablets．You leave your digital footprint and it will never disappear.

Here are reasons why your digital footprint should matter to you.

How people see you

Of course, you have nothing to hide, but if people get information about you, they might judge you from the information you have left online．For example, you make a bad joke online．Years later, it’s found by the university you are applying to, and they don’t think it’s funny．Maybe they decide you are not the “right” kind of person for them,

Your private information

Not everything can be shared with everyone．For example, you might share your school reports with your parents, but keep them secret to your e-friends．If you share them on the Internet, they will not be a secret anymore．Therefore, to protect your privacy(隐私), remember to put out less information online.

Keeping your money safe

There are plenty of people looking at information about you, and some of them want to steal from you．So you shouldn’t write bank details, card numbers or passwords in emails or text messages.

Overall, the message is: No one can go online without leaving his digital footprint—but with care, you can control it.

回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。

61．When do you leave digital footprint?

______________________________________________________________

62．How many reasons are mentioned in the passage?
