25、up dreaming of becoming an astronaut. Ever wonder what it takes to be one?Take NASA for example.In order to catch NASAs eye, would-be astronauts must not only stand out in required skills and pass physical and psychological exams, but also find unique ways to _41_ themselves from the harsh competiti
26、on.NASAs requirements for becoming an astronaut have changed over the years. Originally, it _42_ candidates with a military flight background, with at least 1,000 hours spent in command of a jet aircraft. In 1978, however, NASA _43_ its focus to a more varied group of astronauts: scientists and engi
27、neers with at least three years of experience in their respective fields.During the years of shuttle missions, everyone had a _44_: some would focus on robotics, others on spacewalks or maintenance. To work on the space station, astronauts must be able to perform all tasks, which encourage _45_ to a
28、cquire different experiences. Jeanette Epps, an astronaut, studied aerospace engineering, worked at Ford Motor Company and took a job with the CIA before joining NASA. She says astronauts varied backgrounds _46_ to their ability to adapt and learn anything quickly.After ensuring that candidates are
29、U.S. citizens and that they satisfy _47_ education and experience requirements, the selection committee enters a gray area. “Were not really looking for one thing, just a good mix of things,” said Duane Ross, the manager for astronaut candidate selection and training.To the committee, candidates who
30、 take on _48_ outside of the workplace demonstrate curiosity and energy. Many astronauts who dont have a military background do hold a(n) _49_ piloting license.

31、_ themselves to different, extreme environments counts as another way to stand out from the crowd. III.

32、the context.In a society where many families are torn apart by divorce, and fast-paced modern life often causes parents to lose out on time with their children, the importance of cultivating healthy relationships between fathers and sons is _51_. The following tips maybe helpful.Learn to Talk to You
33、r SonDo not _52_ face-to-face chats; instead, try talking while working on a project together. Watch for clues that he is _53_ to talk, as your son may feel more like talking after dinner rather than first thing in the morning. Be available at any hour, and let your son know it. Give your son verbal
34、 affirmation（肯定、认可）, letting him know that he is loved and that you are _54_ to be his dad.Spend Time TogetherParents spend lots of time shuttling kids to practices, classes and various other activities. _55_, the quality time needed to build relationships is often lacking. How dads spend their time
35、 shows their sons what is most important to them. Whether playing pretend with preschoolers or taking a hike with a teenager, fathers are encouraged to _56_ activities that their sons find interesting.Set Boundaries （界限）_57_ discipline in a loving way shows sons that fathers _58_ care about their ed
36、ucation and are concerned about _59_ their character. Fathers should teach their sons to be responsible for their behaviors and respect authority. Knowing the _60_ of their actions helps children control behavior and think before acting. Thus, it is better for fathers to guide their sons by setting
37、clear expectations and reasonable _61_.Teaching Respectful BehaviorBy modeling respectful behavior, fathers demonstrate _62_ reactions and expression of feelings for their sons. Communicating positive emotions and controlling negative ones shows sons how to healthily _63_ their feelings. Fathers hav
38、e the responsibility of teaching their sons to _64_ women and not view them as objects. This will help them foster healthy relationships in the future. Additionally, by showing respect toward the sons mother, a father not only sets the standard of _65_ behavior but also develops a sense of security

A. determined B. balanced C. deserved D. expectedSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several quest
42、ions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A)Well, parents, surprise! Lots of us are using Twitter and Facebook to find rides, and not just to school
43、. Its awkward to call a friend and ask for a ride, and half the time theyll say, “Sorry, my car is full.” But with Twitter, you just tweet #AshleysPoolParty and look for other people heading the same way.It may sound risky, but many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides, and dont
44、branch out beyond friends of friends when asking on Twitter. For me, I only rideshare with people I know, but to some young people, especially those taking longer trips, stranger danger is less of a concern.The sharing economy got big during the recession（经济衰退）. It allows people to access more goods
45、 and services using technology, while also allowing them to share cost. And that technology, for me, is what the car was for my mom, a gateway to more freedom. According to the researchers at the University of Michigan, 30 years ago, eight in ten American 18-year-olds had a drivers license. Today it
46、s six in ten. So its not that surprising that on my 16th birthday I wasnt rushing to get a license. All I wanted was an iPhone. Juliet Schor (Sociology professor at Boston College) knows people my age love being connected and for young people driving means they have to disconnect from their technolo
47、gy, and thats a negative. So if they could sit in the passenger side and still be connected, thats going to be a plus.To me, another plus is ridesharing represents something much bigger than trying to save money. I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other. My generation shares their
48、 cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar. For the system to work, some of us still need our own cars. But until I get my own version of the silver Super Beetle, you can find me on Twitter. 66. The writer usually rideshares with _.A. anyone heading the same way B. people he knowsC. friends of friends D. strangers of his age67. Fewer young people choose to ride by themselves because _.A. driving means offering free rides to others.B. getting a driving license becomes more difficult.C. driving ones o
