The Race into Space

American millionaire Dennis Tito will always be famous．He was the first tourist in space．"I spent sixty years on Earth and eight days in space and from my viewpoint，it was two separate lives，"Tito explained．He loved his time in space．"Being in space and looking back at earth is one of the most rewarding experiences a human being can have．"

This kind of experience isn't cheap．It cost $ 20 million．However，Tito achieved his dream．so he was happy．"For me it was a life dream．It was a dream that began when I didn，t have any money，"he told reporters．

On 30 April 2002，Mark Shuttleworth became the world's second space tourist．Shuttleworth is a South African businessman．At the age of twenty-eight．he also paid $ 20 million for the eightday trip．

Both Tito and Shuttleworth bought their tickets from a company called Space Adventures．The company has around 100 people already on their waiting list for flights into space．The spaceship to take them doesn't exist yet．

Many of the customdrs are people who like adventure．They are the kind of people who also want to climb Mount Qomolangma．Other customers are people who love space．However，these people are worried．Because it's so expensive,only very rich people can go into space．They want space travel to be available to more people．

That day may soon be here．Inter Orbital Systems(IOS)plans to send up to four tourists a week into space．The tours will depart from an island in Tonga．The company promises a package that includes forty-five days of astronaut training in Russia and California，seven days in space，and a vacation in Tonga．for $2 million．

However，space flight is still very dangerous．Bill Readdy is NASA's deputy assistant administrator for space flight．He says that the chances of dying are about 1 in 500．Because of this it may take time before space tourism really takes off．You might be able to go up，but will you come down?

Immigration and Problems

Hundreds of thousands of people supporting immigration rights in the US filled streets all over America in early 2006．Many held signs and American flags and asked to be treated as citizens-notcriminals．Many of these supported legislation from Senator John McCain that would open a path tocitizenship to immigrants who were already in the country illegally．Proposed legislation from otherpoliticians called for stricter measures-including rounding up undocumented immigrants and send.ing them back to their home countries．

Canadian officials say that immigration applications continue to rise．Some want to keep thedoors open．They need the labor．About 400，000 immigrants were allowed into the country in 2005，according to the Canadian Government statistics．However，all this growth means that cities need toadapt．New comers don't always make a smooth transition into jobs for which they are skilled．So industries are using mentoring(辅导)programs to help new immigrants find proper jobs．

France's new immigration and integration law gives the government new powers to encouragehigh-skilled migration．It takes effect in 2007．The new law authorizes the government will helpthese identified employers find immigrant workers with needed skills or

qualifications．The selectedforeign employees will be granted"skills and talents"visas．valid for three years．But some peopleshow the concern that it'll cause brain drain in developing countries．

The Iceman

On a September day in 1991，two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria andItaly．High up on a mountain pass，they found the body of a man lying on the ice．At that height(10，499 feet，or 3，200 meters)，the ice is usually permanent，but 1991 had been an especiallywarm year．The mountain ice had melted more than usual and so the body had come to the surface．

It was lying face downward．The skeleton(骨架)was in perfect condition，except for a woundin the head．There was still skin on the bones and the remains of some clothes．The hands were still holding the wooden handle of an ax and on the feet there were very simple leather and cloth boots．

Nearby was a pair of gloves made of tree bark(树皮)and a holder for arrows．

Who was this man?How and when had he died?Everybody had a different answer to thesequestions．Some people thought that it was from this century，perhaps the body of a soldier who diedin World War 1，since several soldiers had already been found in the area．A Swiss woman believedit might be her father，who had died in those mountains twenty years before and whose body hadnever been found．The scientists who rushed to look at the body thought it was probably much older，maybe even a thousand years old．

With modern dating techniques，the scientists soon learned that the Iceman was about 5．300 years old．Born in about 3300 B．C．，he lived during the Bronze Age in Europe．At first scientiststhought he was probably a hunter who had died from an accident in the high mountains．More recent evidence，however，tells a different story．A new kind of X-rav shows an arrowhcad still stuck in his shoulder．It left only a tiny hole in his skin，but it caused internal damage and bleeding．He a1．most certainly died from this wound，and not from the wound on the back of his head．This meansthat he was probabb；in some kind of a battle．It may have been part of a larger war。or he may havebeen fighting bandits．He may even have been a bandit himself．

By studying his clothes and tools，scientists have already learned a great deal from the Icemanabout the times he lived in．we may never know the full story of how he died，but he has give Us im．portant clues to the history of those distant times．

36．The body of the Iceman was found in the mountains mainly because_________．

A．he was lying on the ice

B．he was just on a mountain pass

C．the melted iee made him visible

D．two Germans were climbing the mountains

37．What can be inferred from paragraph 2?

造访太空

美国百万富翁丹尼斯·蒂托将永远闻名于世，因为他是第一位太空游客。他解释道："我在地球上度过了六十年，而在太空度过了八天。在我看来，这是两种完全不同的生活。"他热爱在太空的日子。"身处太空回看地球是一个人所能拥有的最有价值的经历之一。"

这种经历是昂贵的，他花费了2000万美元。但是，蒂托实现了他的梦想，因此非常快乐。他告诉记者："对我来说，这是一生的梦想。当我还没有钱时，这个梦想就产生了。"

2002年4月30日，马克·沙特尔沃思成为世界第二位太空游客。沙特尔沃思是一个南非商人。二十八岁的他为八天的太空旅行同样支付了2000万美元。

蒂托和沙特尔沃思都是在一家称作太空探险的公司购买的太空旅行票。这家公司已有一百多人在等待飞往太空的名单上登记，而将要携带他们的宇宙飞船目前并不存在。

这些顾客中的许多人喜爱探险。他们也是那类想要攀登珠穆朗玛峰的人。另一些人则喜欢太空。但是，这些人担心，因为太空旅行过于昂贵，只有非常富有的人才可能加入太空。他们希望太空旅行应提供给更多的人。

这一天也许很快到来。太空轨道传送公司(IOS)计划一周送四位太空游客进入太空。旅程将从汤加群岛的一个岛屿出发。这家公司承诺这个旅程包括在俄罗斯和加利福尼亚的四十五天的太空训练，七天的太空生活和在汤加群岛的度假，花费为两百万美元。

但是，太空旅行依然是非常危险的。贝尔·瑞迪是美国国家航空航天局副助理署长。他指出，太空旅行的死亡机遇是五百分之一。正是由于这点，在太空旅行出发之前，要花费很多时间。你也许能够飞入太空，但是，能下来吗?

俭以防匮

鲍勃和克拉拉在英格兰北部经营着一个农场，他们一直在寻找从他们种植的植物中赚钱的方法。当他们在农场开设了一个商店后，由此人们能够直接从这里购买到新鲜的蔬菜，他们的成功也接踵而来。

经营很快成功了，不久在国家农场零售协会评选最好的农场商店的竞赛中，他们赢得了最高分。协会的观察员发现克拉拉的商店不仅提供质优价廉的水果和蔬菜，而且提供优质的服务。

克拉拉是一个训练有素的厨师，加之拥有种类众多的自己农场种植产品和其他当地产品，她开始在农舍厨房里提供各种各样她自己烹调的菜肴。不久一个小咖啡馆出现在农场商店旁边。游客在菜单中能够看到的所有菜肴商店里都有出售。

克拉拉承认创业是昂贵的，而且她一直艰辛工作着。但是，如果产品好，公众承认并购买那就能维持下去。"无论他们是来买一片面包还是办理整个宴会，我的目标是给顾客提供最优质的服务。如果顾客把菜肴带回去与家人和朋友分享，并当作是自己烹制的，我会视此为对我工作的赞赏。"

同时，这对夫妇意识到农场的那些畸形的或是碰伤的剩余蔬菜不适合在商店出售。克拉拉不愿意看到它们被浪费掉，于是决定把它们做成汤。

这种汤很快受到客户的青睐。克拉拉现在提供十个不同种类的汤。她夏天的大部分时间乘坐火车沿着伦敦来回旅行，以展示自己做的蔬菜汤。结果，现在这些汤上了三家公司旗下的一流铁路餐厅的餐桌，一些伦敦高级商店也有它的存货。

移民问题

2006年初，成千上万的支持移民权利的人们纷纷涌上美国的街头，他们打着标语，挥舞着国旗，要求被当作公民而非罪犯对待。他们中大部分人都支持参议员麦凯恩的立法。这个立法会为那些已经非法进入这个国家的移民指明一条取得公民身份的道路。而其他议员的提案则呼吁采取更为严厉的措施--包括将他们逮捕并记录在案或把他们遣送回国。

加拿大政府称移民申请数量保持增长势头。有些人希望自家国门敞开，因为他们需要劳动力。据加官方数据显示，在2005年，大约有四十万人移民加拿大。然而，这些增长意味着城市需要使用这些移民。新来的移民在向他们擅长的工作领域过渡时也并非一帆风顺，因此，许多工业企业采用培训项目帮助他们找到合适的工作。

随着大批的无证非洲移民来到加那利群岛，并且没有减弱的迹象，西班牙政府决定采取严厉的措施。政府宣布，对非法移民的大赦将不复存在，并且任何未获许可进入西班牙的人将一律被遣送回国。2006年，大约两万三千移民抵达群岛，一些拥挤的接待中心发生了暴乱。这些都促使当地政府向联合国需求帮助。

法国新的移民和融入法案给予政府新的权利，以鼓励具有高技术的人才移民法国。这项法案于2007年生效。根据新法案，政府可以限定哪些是法国人才短缺的行业，然后帮助有关雇主寻找具备他们需要的技术或资格的移民。这项外来的雇员将获得"技术与人才"的签证，有效期为三年。但是这些人担心，这个法案会导致发展中国家的人才流失。
