It’s pssible that Chris Raven is the nly persn in the UK making barque flutes (长笛). But far frm having a lifetime f making instruments behind him, he started ut at 70, after decades wrking in IT. He turns 80 in a mnth. Yet, in childhd, he lved wdwrk. As he says: “Yu can plant a seed in a child’s mind. And the seed stays.”
Raven grew up in a musical husehld, in Chelmsfrd, Essex. Raven played the flute until he lst interest as a teenager. But he rediscvered his lve f the instrument in his 40s when he wn lessns at his daughter’s schl fundraiser. Twenty years ag, he funded a flute chir.
It was after his mther died that he fund his ld schl reprts in his parents’ desk.

Abut 10 years ag, Raven signed up fr an Irish flute-making wrkshp, fllwed by a barque flute-making wrkshp. He cleared ut the garage f the hme, and equipped it with varius tls t make flutes. His childhd passin “was revived” in barque flutes and flute bxes.
“It’s been all-cnsuming,” he says. He spends at least fur days a week “n my wn in the wrkshp”. “Flute making, and bx making, is nt a living s much as a hbby,” says Raven. “I feel real passin and mre creatin abut a new design.”

Grup f students is aiming t becme the first nn-gvernment, nn-cmmercial team t send a rcket t space. The team’s Aurra rcket, set t launch frm Califrnia this mnth, is designed t reach a tp speed f Mach 5.2 and break thrugh Earth’s atmsphere. If successful, it will be the secnd student-led team t reach space, and the first t d it with a reusable rcket.
The Karman Space Prgramme (KSP) was funded by students. They designed the craft, which cnsists f tw separate stages, each with its wn engine fuelled (提供燃料) by liquid xygen and ethanl. Each stage will fire fr just ver 20 secnds, and the rcket will be travelling at 5522 kilmetres an hur at its peak speed. Abut 100 secnds after launch, it will reach its highest pint and then shuld begin falling back t Earth fr a sft landing by parachute (降落伞). KSP’s chairman, Shapl M. says the KSP missin will use multi-stage liquid engines like cmmercial launchers, recver all sectins f the rcket and culd, in thery, be turned arund fr a secnd launch within 24 hurs.
The team is planning t launch Aurra frm a site in the Mjave desert in Califrnia n 24September. “Launching utside the UK is a huge pain, but there isn’t a place right nw t launch up t these altitudes in the UK. It’s a real shame,” says Shapl.
Shapl says it is hard t predict what will happen at launch, but preparatins have included tests f many cmpnents. The team’s previus rckets include Vega, pwered by the same engine as Aurra’s secnd stage. “We’ve tried t fail as much as pssible befre, s that we dn’t fail n the big ne,” says Shapl.
8. What’s special abut Aurra rcket?
A. It can be recycled.B. It is the fastest in the wrld.
C. It is quite prfitable.D. It belngs t the gvernment.
9. What is paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. The challenge in rcket design.B. The KSP’s new missin.
C The expected prcess f the launch.D. The first students’ space sht.
10. What can we learn frm Shapl’s wrds in paragraph 3?
A. It is rather difficult t launch the rcket.
B. Launching utside the UK is unacceptable.
C. The launch has t be carried ut in the desert.
D. There is n suitable site fr this launch in the UK.
11. What’s Shapl’s attitude t the launch?
A. Objective.B. Optimistic.C. Critical.D. Dubtful.

It’s ne f Hllywd’s favrite stries: human beings use nly 10 percent f their brain, and awakening the remaining 90 percent allws therwise rdinary human beings t display extrardinary mental abilities. Scarlett Jhanssn becmes a superpwered Kngfu master in Lucy (2014). And in Limitless (2011) Bradley Cper writes a nvel vernight. But the truth is that we use all f ur brain all f the time.
Hw d we knw? Fr ne thing, if we needed nly 10 percent f ur brain, the majrity f brain injuries wuld have n bvius cnsequences, since the damage wuld affect parts f the brain that weren’t ding anything t begin with. We als knw that natural selectin discurages the develpment f useless structures. Tugher immune systems, strnger muscles, better lking hair—just abut anything wuld be mre useful than having a head full f useless tissue.
We’ve been able t back up these lgical cnclusins with hard evidence. Imaging techniques allw dctrs and scientists t map brain activity in real time. The data clearly shws that large areas f the brain—far mre than 10 percent—are used fr all srts f activity, frm seemingly simple tasks like resting r lking at pictures t mre cmplex nes like reading r ding math.
S hw did we cme t believe that 90 percent f ur brain is useless? The myth is ften incrrectly attributed t (归因于) 19th-century psychlgist William James, wh prpsed that mst f ur mental ptential ges untapped. But he never made clear a percentage. In reality, the cncept mst likely came frm the American self-help industry.
Obviusly, this is bad news fr anyne hping t find the secret t becming a genius vernight. The gd news, thugh, is that hard wrk still wrks. There is plenty f reasn t believe that yu can build brainpwer by regularly wrking at challenging mental tasks, such as playing a musical instrument, ding arithmetic, r reading a nvel.
12. What des the authr agree with?
A. Hllywd’s superstars are ppular.B. Humans emply all ur brain.
C. Only 10 percent f human brain is used.D. 90 percent humans are rdinary.
13. Hw des the authr develp his argument?
A. By telling stries.B. By making cmparisn.
C. By reasning lgically.D. By explaining cncepts.
14. What des the underlined wrd “myth” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Cmmn sense.B. Wrng idea.C. Accurate answer.D. Abstract thery.
15. What des the authr suggest readers d?
A. Wrk hard cnstantly.B. Believe in themselves.
C. Face challenges bravely.D. Find the secret t success.

It’s pssible that Chris Raven is the nly persn in the UK making barque flutes (长笛). But far frm having a lifetime f making instruments behind him, he started ut at 70, after decades wrking in IT. He turns 80 in a mnth. Yet, in childhd, he lved wdwrk. As he says: “Yu can plant a seed in a child’s mind. And the seed stays.”
Raven grew up in a musical husehld, in Chelmsfrd, Essex. Raven played the flute until he lst interest as a teenager. But he rediscvered his lve f the instrument in his 40s when he wn lessns at his daughter’s schl fundraiser. Twenty years ag, he funded a flute chir.

Grup f students is aiming t becme the first nn-gvernment, nn-cmmercial team t send a rcket t space. The team’s Aurra rcket, set t launch frm Califrnia this mnth, is designed t reach a tp speed f Mach 5.2 and break thrugh Earth’s atmsphere. If successful, it will be the secnd student-led team t reach space, and the first t d it with a reusable rcket.
The Karman Space Prgramme (KSP) was funded by students. They designed the craft, which cnsists f tw separate stages, each with its wn engine fuelled (提供燃料) by liquid xygen and ethanl. Each stage will fire fr just ver 20 secnds, and the rcket will be travelling at 5522 kilmetres an hur at its peak speed. Abut 100 secnds after launch, it will reach its highest pint and then shuld begin falling back t Earth fr a sft landing by parachute (降落伞). KSP’s chairman, Shapl M. says the KSP missin will use multi-stage liquid engines like cmmercial launchers, recver all sectins f the rcket and culd, in thery, be turned arund fr a secnd launch within 24 hurs.
The team is planning t launch Aurra frm a site in the Mjave desert in Califrnia n 24September. “Launching utside the UK is a huge pain, but there isn’t a place right nw t launch up t these altitudes in the UK. It’s a real shame,” says Shapl.
Shapl says it is hard t predict what will happen at launch, but preparatins have included tests f many cmpnents. The team’s previus rckets include Vega, pwered by the same engine as Aurra’s secnd stage. “We’ve tried t fail as much as pssible befre, s that we dn’t fail n the big ne,” says Shapl.
8. What’s special abut Aurra rcket?
A. It can be recycled.B. It is the fastest in the wrld.
C. It is quite prfitable.D. It belngs t the gvernment.
9. What is paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. The challenge in rcket design.B. The KSP’s new missin.
C The expected prcess f the launch.D. The first students’ space sht.
10. What can we learn frm Shapl’s wrds in paragraph 3?
A. It is rather difficult t launch the rcket.
B. Launching utside the UK is unacceptable.
C. The launch has t be carried ut in the desert.
D. There is n suitable site fr this launch in the UK.
11. What’s Shapl’s attitude t the launch?

It’s ne f Hllywd’s favrite stries: human beings use nly 10 percent f their brain, and awakening the remaining 90 percent allws therwise rdinary human beings t display extrardinary mental abilities. Scarlett Jhanssn becmes a superpwered Kngfu master in Lucy (2014). And in Limitless (2011) Bradley Cper writes a nvel vernight. But the truth is that we use all f ur brain all f the time.
Hw d we knw? Fr ne thing, if we needed nly 10 percent f ur brain, the majrity f brain injuries wuld have n bvius cnsequences, since the damage wuld affect parts f the brain that weren’t ding anything t begin with. We als knw that natural selectin discurages the develpment f useless structures. Tugher immune systems, strnger muscles, better lking hair—just abut anything wuld be mre useful than having a head full f useless tissue.
We’ve been able t back up these lgical cnclusins with hard evidence. Imaging techniques allw dctrs and scientists t map brain activity in real time. The data clearly shws that large areas f the brain—far mre than 10 percent—are used fr all srts f activity, frm seemingly simple tasks like resting r lking at pictures t mre cmplex nes like reading r ding math.
S hw did we cme t believe that 90 percent f ur brain is useless? The myth is ften incrrectly attributed t (归因于) 19th-century psychlgist William James, wh prpsed that mst f ur mental ptential ges untapped. But he never made clear a percentage. In reality, the cncept mst likely came frm the American self-help industry.
Obviusly, this is bad news fr anyne hping t find the secret t becming a genius vernight. The gd news, thugh, is that hard wrk still wrks. There is plenty f reasn t believe that yu can build brainpwer by regularly wrking at challenging mental tasks, such as playing a musical instrument, ding arithmetic, r reading a nvel.
12. What des the authr agree with?
A. Hllywd’s superstars are ppular.B. Humans emply all ur brain.
C. Only 10 percent f human brain is used.D. 90 percent humans are rdinary.
13. Hw des the authr develp his argument?
A. By telling stries.B. By making cmparisn.
C. By reasning lgically.D. By explaining cncepts.
14. What des the underlined wrd “myth” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Cmmn sense.B. Wrng idea.C. Accurate answer.D. Abstract thery.
15. What des the authr suggest readers d?
A. Wrk hard cnstantly.B. Believe in themselves.
C. Face challenges bravely.D. Find the secret t success.
