I don't know how I did it. While the airplane was climbing, I was asking myself a lot of questions. For example, what would my parents think of me if the parachute didn't work? The master jumper looked at me and said, “Don't worry. We'll be with you.”
Then, I looked at my altimeter. We were at 10,000 feet. I looked at the door, and the light had turned green.

“Are you ready?” the master jumper asked me.
“Yes, I am.” I answered him.
We walked to the door. There were two master jumpers who would jump with me. One was on my left, and the other was on my right. I followed all the steps, and then we jumped.
I was flying! I looked at my master jumpers. They were with me, and they were smiling. I felt relaxed. I had to wait until I was at 6,000 feet to pull the rope.
Things were working without problems. There was no noise except the sound of the wind. I looked at my altimeter. It was at 6,000 feet. And I pulled the rope with my right hand. I almost stopped in the air. The harness(背带) was holding me. I was at 4,000 feet. I could see the airport and the place where I had to land. I was going to land in four minutes. When I arrived on the ground, I thought I had done it.

Recently, a designer in Hong Kong has invented a special book that can transform(变形) into a piece of furniture. The special book is called Bookniture. It can be unfolded to become a chair or a small table. People can either carry it around for a portable(轻便的) chair or can store it in their homes to use as extra furniture.
The book was designed by Mike Mak. He came up with the idea after never having enough seats for his friends in his home in Hong Kong.
“I love having friends at my place, but I have never had enough seats for everyone—we would always end up with just sitting on the floor. I really want a seat that doesn't take up any floor space when I don't need it. One day, the empty space on my bookcase drew my attention. Then came the new idea—Bookniture, furniture hidden in a book,” said the 30-year-old designer.
Made from fully-recyclable kraft paper(牛皮纸), the book measures 33 cm by 18 cm. It expands(扩大) to 14 times bigger once it's opened, and can support up to 1,000 kg of weight. It comes in two colors, brown and black, and can be bought for between ￡55 and ￡57.
8.The book is special because .
A.it can be used as a bag to carry things B.it is made from recyclable plastic
C.it can hold up to 1,000 kg of weight D.it can be changed into a chair or a table
9.Paragraph 3 is about .
A.how Mike came up with the idea B.who designed Bookniture
C.what Bookniture looks like D.why Mike has so many friends
10.What information can we learn about Bookniture from the last paragraph?
①size ②color ③weight ④price ⑤material
A.①②③④ B.①②④⑤ C.①③④⑤ D.①②③④⑤
11.What can be the best title for this passage?

She is everything you would hope a hero to be. She has courage, power, beauty, grace and love. Who is she? She is Diana Prince, the princess of the Amazons. She is ready for the role of a lifetime—to become the hero the world has been waiting for—in the Wonder Women film, which became a great hit all over the world in June, 2017.
The film begins on the all-female island named Themyscira where Diana was born. Ever since she was a young girl, Diana has longed to be a warrior(勇士). Though her mother attempts to hold her back from training, she still trains in secret, hoping to protect the innocent(无辜的人) and fight for peace.
Diana's world is turned upside down when she discovers a man, Steve Trevor, washed up to the shore. He is saved by the princess, and tells her about a world war that is happening outside the island. Diana feels a great need to help save the world because she can't just stand by while innocent lives are suffering. So she decides to leave her homeland to join Steve to try to end the war.
In Wonder Women, the battle scenes are a visual treat(视觉盛宴) for the audience, with Diana fighting with her sword and shield and tossing around some enemies with her golden Lasso of Truth(真言套索).
What is the whole story behind this DC Comic's greatest heroine? What challenges will she face on her way to becoming the unconquerable warrior? You are able to find it out by yourself in the film!
