September is the month for fashion, with four international cities hosting the fashion week. All
eyes will turn to New York, London, Milan and Paris this month to see which city puts on the best
show.
New York
New York Fashion Week, or NYFW, kicks off on September 5th and runs for approximately
eight days. NYFW is considered the most commercial and casual of the four. It is also the only event
to allow some fashion school students to participate, bringing a fresh look to the runway.
London
London Fashion Week(LFW)comes on the heels of NYFW, starting on September 13th, and
running through September 17th. Once considered a minor player among the Big Four, LFW can
now command a list of big names as well as promising new designers. London fashion houses have a
reputation for being very experimental and open to new ideas.
Milan
Fashion Week moves to Milan on September 17th. This beautiful Italian city is home to some of the biggest fashion houses and designers in the fashion world, including Armani and Prada.
Milan's fashion houses are known for offering glamorous (有魅力的), yet practical, options.
Paris

23rd. Saving the best for last, Paris never fails to offer some of the most exciting shows of the
season. World-famous labels like Chanel and Dior try to outdo one another with their latest designs.
The word that best describes Paris Fashion Week is "elegant".

Wildfires were rapidly spreading through northern and southern California as powerful winds
swept through the state, burning homes and forcing more than 200,000 people to leave their homes.
Thousands of structures were destroyed in the massive fires. Firefighters and volunteers worked
around the clock, risking their lives to save others, although thick clouds of wildfire smoke hung in
the air.
But it's not just humans in danger's path. A video of a horse running away from the rescue team
to find his family of horses from CBS Los Angeles went viral. The public was touched by the horse's
heroic act and shared their thoughts on the Internet.
Volunteers were rescuing several horses from the wildfire when one of the horses jumped away
from the group. They were trying to help the horse, but he refused. They probably had no idea what
was wrong with the horse, who just started running away from them. The horse raced back into
danger to lead his family to safety, despite rescuers' best efforts to stop him. He knew he couldn't
leave them behind. As the tension increased, several human strangers jumped in to help the
animals-they went back to the burning bam where some of the horses remained.
You can watch the horse run back into the smoke-filled area, reconnect with the horses inside the fence, and quickly accompany them out of the fenced-off area. Though it's not clear from the
video, CBS Los Angeles reported that all but one of the horses involved were saved. Disastrous as
the California wildfires have been, the video and countless other rescue stories-humans and animals
alike-are shining light on all acts of goodness taking place.
24. What does the author intend to show by telling the wildfires in detail in Para. I?
A.What caused the big wildfires. B. How serious the wildfires were.
C. What rescuers did in the wildfires. D. How rapidly the wildfires spread.
25. What does the underlined phrases "went viral" mean?
A. Turned bad. B. Got attacked. C. Became interesting. D. Grew popular.
26. Which words can best describe the horse?
A. Loyal but stubborn. B. Caring and courageous.
C. Responsible and clever. D. Flexible but aggressive.
27. What message does the author want to convey?
A. Fighting disasters needs joint efforts B. Animals are always friends of man.
C. All good deeds deserve to be praised. D. Animals show goodness to each other.
C
Jellyfish(水母)are unusual creatures. They're neither fish nor jelly. Some are among the most
colourful creatures in the world, but it's best to look but not touch these invertebrates(无脊椎动物).
Not only are they very fragile creatures, but many give a painful sting(刺痛), and some are even
deadly. Whether you admire them in an aquarium or try to avoid them in the wild, you won't be able
to get these fascinating jellyfish facts out of your head.
Here's a jellyfish fact that might come in handy: There are several names for a group of
jellyfish. They include smack, bloom, and swarm. Choose the word you prefer depending on
whether you think the jellyfish pack looks like a garden of blooming flowers or more like a
frightening pack of stingers, and whether you're admiring them at an aquarium or if you and your
fellow divers are surrounded.
Jellyfish have two main forms in their life cycle that look quite different from each other.
Scientific American explains than an adult jellyfish, called a medusa, has a bell-shaped body with
tentacles(触须)flowing down below it. Young jellyfish, called polyps, look more like sea anemones,
with shorter tentacles that flow up above the main body. Medusas reproduce by releasing eggs.Melanic Roberts, Senior Aquarist at Sea World Orlando, says that the largest jellyfish in the
world is a lion's mane jellyfish. The body of this beautiful orange jelly can grow up to three feet in
diameter. With its 12,000 tentacles that can grow 120 Feet long, Oceana. org adds that the lion's
mane jelly compares in size to the planet's largest animal: the blue whale.
Regardless of their size, jellyfish are mostly made of water. In fact, they're about 95 per cent
water. These creatures don't have brains, blood, or bones. And most jellyfish don't have eyes.
Jellyfish also use their mouths both for eating and for waste removal.
28. Why can't we touch jellyfish?
A. Because they may be stung. B. Because they may die easily.
C. Because they may feel painful. D. Because they may hurt people.
29. What are jellyfish named after?
A. Their size. B. Their color. C. Their appearance. D. Their lifestyle.
30. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Mouth is an important organ for jellyfish.
B. Polyps can clone themselves by laying eggs.
C. The largest jellyfish in the world is 120 feet long.
D. Medusas have tentacles flowing up above the body.
31.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The two main forms of jellyfish. B. Several facts about jellyfish.
C. Jellyfish are neither fish nor jelly. D. Jellyfish have many different names.
D
Fancy your own satellite? Arizona State University is working towards making this a reality
with its SunCube FemtoSat project. Smaller than a standard CubeSat, the low-cost student-designed
spacecraft is aimed at providing greater access to space for scientists and hobbyists alike.
Assistant professor Jekan Thanga and a team of students have been developing the SunCube
FemtoSat for the past two years. The small 3×3×3cm cube weighs in at just 35g and a longer (3×
3×9cm,100g)model has also been designed, which includes storage space.
Each SunCube FemtoSat has its own communication, data collection and propulsion( 推
进 )systems and is powered by solar panels. It is made of off-the-shelf parts that are available in
shops, and the energy-efficient solar panels are cut from scrap(碎片), which makes it save energy, sold at a discount by manufacturers(制造商). "With a spacecraft of this size, any university can do
it," says Thanga. "That's part of our major goal-space discovery for everybody."
The team says that while launching your own satellite would usually cost between US
$60,000-70,000 per kilo, it would only cost $1,000 to send a SunCube FemtoSat to the International
Space Station, and $3,000 to send it into low earth orbit. Leaving the earth's gravity would cost an
estimated $27,000.
The FemtoSat would be packed with a "jack in the box" style system that matches standard
CubeSat sizes(around 10 cubic cm), simplifying the process of getting the tiny satellite into orbit.
NASA has sent 30 CubeSats into space over the last few years, with another 50 awaiting launch.
Thanga and his staff view the FemtoSat as a starting point for scientists and students, and even
hope the device could be bought on the website like Amazon one day. Thanga imagines developing
four main applications for the device, including hands-on testing experiences for students, and
artificial gravity experiments. In addition, groups of SunCube FemtoSats are eventually able to do
the job of larger spacecraft at a vastly discounted cost.
32. The major goal of the SunCube FemtoSat project is .
A. to act on teaching in outer space
B. to provide access to spacecraft design
C. to help carry out a classroom experiment
D. to help average individuals explore space
33. What is special about SunCube FemtoSats?
A. They are energy-efficient. B. They are of the same size.
C. They are mainly designed for lab use. D. They are mainly used to collect information.
34. What does Thanga expect of SunCube FemtoSats?
A. They'll be available online. B. They'll be provided for free.
C. They'll match the size of CubeSats. D. They'll be sent into space with CubeSats.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. FemtoSats Will Rule Space B. Your Own Satellite Is-Coming
C. Going into Space Has Been Affordable D. You Can Design Your Own Spacecraf

So how do you think of my plan? I’m looking forward to hearing from you!
Yours,
