Most children don’t enjoy doing housework. They like playing computer games rather than cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert’s mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods (方法) to get their children to do housework. Here is an example

“Mom, have you worked out next week’s housework? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can’t wait. It’s fun!”

When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom” and many. Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom (浴室), so he picked up (捡起) the card “clean the bathroom”. Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up “wash vegetables” and Robert chose “feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.

To help the children do housework, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the housework on the weekends and left Jim and Robert two days.

Do stars only appear at night? The answer is no. Venus(金星) is the one and only star that can be seen in the daytime. It shone at its brightest in the night sky on February 17th, 2017. Venus is the second planet from the sun in our solar system. It is the second brightest natural object, behind Earth’s moon, in the night sky. Why is it so bright?

First of all, Venus is the closest planet to Earth. It is also covered by highly reflective(照射的) clouds, which can reflect about 70 percent of the sunlight striking(照射)it, almost twice as much as Earth does.

Some called 2017 the year of Venus, because the planet is at its brightest when it goes further away from the sun, and nearer to Earth. The brightest moment occurred once in February, and happened again, during daylight, on April 30th.

If venus is so bright and close to us, isn’t it a better choice for human exploration than Mars? It is closer to earth than Mars and it’s closer to earth in size. the closer distance to then means solar power(太阳能) would be easier to produce as well.

However, with a temperature of about 465℃ on the surface, Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system.

But scientists never give up. Recently, a team of NASA and Russian scientists created new computer equipment that can stand the temperature of 480℃. It can work under Venus-like conditions for almost 22 days.

The next step, according to the scientists, is to send a probe(探测器) to Venus by 2025.

22．The moon is the ________ brightest nature object in the night sky.

A．first B．second C．third D．fourth

23．Why do people call 2017 the year of Venus?

A．Because Venus is the closest planet to Earth in 2017.

B．Because Venus can produce more solar power this year.

C．Because Venus is the hottest planet in solar system this year.

D．Because the brightest moment of Venus happened two times.

24．The underlined word “occurred”in the passage means ________.

A．placed B．showed C．happened D．began

25．What can we know from the passage?

A．What solar system is.

B．Why Venus is so bright.

C．When Venus is the hottest.

D．How scientists create solar power.
