Clara, a fifteen﹣year﹣old girl at the time, pressed the call button. An air hostess came by and explained the situation. “We have a passenger on the plane who’s blind and deaf, ” she said. “The passenger seemed to want something, but he was traveling alone and the air hostesses couldn’t understand what he needed. ”
Clara had been studying ASL for the past year to help blind and deaf people and she knew she’d be able to finger spell into the man’s palm. So she rose from her seat, walked toward the front of the plane, and knelt（跪）by the seat of Tim Cook, a sixty﹣four man. Gently taking his hand, she signed, “How are you？ Are you OK？” Cook asked for some water. When it arrived, Clara returned to her seat.

However exciting space travel sounds, astronauts must still suffer with bad food. Now, food in space has to be dehydrated（使脱水）or pre﹣cooked and stored. This means astronauts aren’t really eating fresh food.
New technology may change this. Scientific American reports that a specially designed oven will be sent into space this autumn with NASA’s NG﹣12 cargo（货物）mission.
Far from the common vacuum﹣packed（真空包装的）meals, astronauts may get to enjoy freshly baked cookies before the end of 2019.
Why aren’t they baking cookies in space already？
For one thing, there’s the risk of a fire. Engineers also have to overcome the challenge of microgravity, which prevents heat from circling inside ovens the same way it does on Earth.
Astronauts will still have to wait a while before they can have their cookies, though. After baking, the results will be sent back to Earth for safety testing. It successful, this will be the first oven to bake food in space.
“I believe…that will be game﹣changing for both science and astronauts, ” food technology researcher Maeena Naman Shafiee told Scientific American.
One of the main driving forces behind this project has been NASA’s 2018 research into the effects of “confinement（封闭）and isolation（隔离）”. Unlike on the International Space Station（ISS）, astronauts traveling out of Earth’s orbit may not be able to speak to their loved ones on future missions, which could lead to negative feelings.
It’s hoped that the chance to bake and sense familiar smells can bring joy to crews（宇航人员）.
“Is the ISS going to smell like fresh﹣baked cookies？ We don’t know. ” said NanoRacks’ communications manager Abby Dickes. “But that’s a feeling we all know and love…that will make someone feel at home. ”
Baking cookies in space would mark an important step, offering a small comfort in the difficult and unfamiliar environment of space travel. Astronauts have already grown plants aboard the ISS.
With commercial（商业的）space travel now being planned, who knows what other developments may surprise us in the future？
（1）What can the new technology help astronauts to do in space？______
A. Store more food.
B. Enjoy fresh cookies.
C. Quickly prepare food.
D. Cook many different kinds of home﹣made meals.
（2）Why is it difficult to bake cookies in space？______
A. Because it’s difficult and costly to send food into space.
B. Because microgravity stops food from staying in one place.
C. Because baking cookies in space would pollute the spaceships.
D. Because it is hard to heat food properly because of microgravity.
（3）What was the main purpose of the cookie project？______
A. To improve astronauts’ health.
B. To make improvements in space travel.
C. To encourage more people to travel to space.
D. To make space travel more comfortable for astronauts.

Audio Texts Signal Rise of New Literacy
Many people read physical books or e﹣books, but now there is a new﹣trend listening to audiobooks（有声读物）.
According to a recent report by the Chinese Academy of Press and Publication（CAPP）, more people are choosing to listen to audiobooks these days.
To be specific, 26 percent of adults listened to audiobooks in 2018, which was 3.2 percentage higher than that in 2017.
Young people have been the main driver in the development of audiobooks. Some 26.2 percent of teenagers listened to audiobooks in 2018, which was 3.5 percent higher than that in 2017. Ximalaya noted that the value of audiobook purchases made by those aged 13 to 18 in 2018 increased by 330 percent over that of 2017, the Beijing Evening News reported.
One of the reasons that audiobooks are becoming increasingly popular is that people want to get more use out of their free time, China News Service reported. Listening to e﹣books frees up time for them, whether they are at the gym, on a bus or in bed. Faster internet speeds mean that a book can be downloaded in seconds, according to Wei Yushan, director of CAPP.
Listening to audiobooks also helps with loneliness. “When I feel bored or lonely, listening to audiobooks makes me feel that there is someone accompanying（陪伴）me, ” Zhong Yan, an office worker who is__obsessed__with audiobooks, told the Beijing Evening News.
However, audiobooks are still far from perfect. “Listening to audiobooks doesn’t make you think in the way you do when you’re reading a book. It’s also likely that you will miss information while you listen, ” said Zhong.
Qiang Qiang, a primary student who often listens to audiobooks, shares this perspective： “Despite（即使, 尽管）its convenience, audiobooks are less detailed than physical books you read, ” he told the Beijing Evening News.
Li Yini, assistant general manager of Baicaoyuan Bookstore in Wuxi, Jiangsu province, told Jiangnan Times that people who want a book with serious content should choose a paper book or e﹣book, but they can choose an audiobook if the content is easy to understand.
（1）What can we learn from the first four paragraphs？______
A. Audiobooks have developed quickly in recent years.
B. Audiobooks are more popular than physical books in China.
C. Ximalaya is the first choice when people listen to audiobooks.
D. About half of young people in China listened to audiobooks in 2018.
（2）According to the article, people like to listen to e﹣books because______.
A. they are more convenient
B. they are cheaper than paper books
C. they are more relaxing than physical books
D. they provide people with a better reading experience
（3）The phrase “be obsessed with” in Paragraph 6 probably means “______”.
A. be doubtful about
B. be interested in
C. be careful about
D. be disappointed at
（4）What can we learn from Li Yini’s words？______
A. Audiobooks are less detailed than physical books.
B. People should choose a book form based on its content.
C. People think differently when they listen to audiobooks.
D. Physical bookstores face a big challenge from audiobooks.

Let’s Save Our Language Heritage
Each year on Feb 21, UNESCO holds an International Mother Language Day（IMLD）. The event is to draw attention to the disappearance of the world’s languages：dozens of them are vanishing each year. UNESCO sees this as a tragedy（悲剧）, and with good reason.
What happens when a language dies out？ Something huge is lost﹣not just sounds and marks but the way that people make sense of the world and communicate with each other. And it is through language that we have culture and tradition. Kill a language and all this is killed too.
Through IMLD, more people are becoming aware of the destruction of linguistic（语言学的）diversity in modern times and trying to stop it. Google’s 2012 Endangered Languages Project is a good example. Speakers and protectors of endangered languages upload text, audio and video files to the project site. They want to introduce people to the wonders of the way that people communicate and express themselves around the world.
The Myaamia Project is a similar kind of effort. This is an attempt to revive（重新使用）the language spoken by the Miami and Illinois tribes（部落）of the US. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language, which formally died out in the 1960s.
These activities, which breathe life into languages on the verge（边缘）of extinction, might seem old﹣fashioned to some. But those who work to keep languages alive are not enslaved（束缚）to the past. They are enthusiastic young people who design apps and use social media to champion their activities. As the US﹣based social event calendar website Upcoming puts it, they “spread the word” to save the word.
So, while the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a special feeling for our mother tongue, although those of us who speak one that is not endangered might not always be aware of it. This is why we should recall（回忆）the wise words of the late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela：”If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart. ”
（1）When is International Mother Language Day？

（2）What happens when a language dies out？
____
__
（3）What is Google’s 2012 Endangered Languages Project？
____
__
（4）What can we know from Paragraph 5？
