Today, in many parts of the world, it is customary for people to shake hands upon meeting as gesture of
good will. Originally, however, the practice of shaking hands had a more practical purpose.
Shaking hands originated in medieval times. In those days, when a man came on a stranger, he would
often automatically reach for his sword with his right hand, in case he had to use the weapon to defend
himself. Sometimes, both parties found themselves circling around each other, weapons in hand, until it was
mutually agreed that the weapons could be laid aside. Then, the two parties extended their right hands to
show they had no weapons, and clasped them. This was the beginning of the handshake.
The custom of shaking hands is not a universal one. In the Orient, people have, for centuries, clasped
their own hands in front of them upon meeting to show that they held no weapons. In France, a custom
developed in which people who met would kiss each other on both cheeks. The natives of some South-sea

islands greet by rubbing noses.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D
Space is a dangerous place, not only because of meteors but also because of rays from the sun and other stars.

The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through, and this is essential for
plants to make the food which we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays
come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As
soon as men leave the atmosphere, they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their
spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.
Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is called “rem”.
Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 rem without being
damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about
radiation damage - a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged,
and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed children or even grandchildren.
Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation, and during the outward and
return journeys, the Apollo crew accumulated a large amount of rems. So far, no dangerous amounts of
radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how
men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working
in a space laboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones
have been found so far.
Question 17. According to the first paragraph, the atmosphere is essential to man in that .
A.it protects him against the harmful rays from space C.it provides sufficient light for plant growth
B.it supplies the heat necessary for human survival
D.it screens off the falling meteors
Question 18. We know from the passage that _________________
A. exposure to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatal B.the effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming
C. radiation is avoidable in space exploration D. astronauts in spacesuits needn’t worry about radiation
damage
Question 19. The harm radiation has done to the Apollo crew members__________
A. is insignificant
B. seems overestimated
C. is enormous
D. remains unknown



Question 20. It can be inferred from the passage that .
A. the Apollo mission was very successful
B. protection from space radiation is no easy job
C. astronauts will have deformed children or grandchildren D. radiation is not a threat to well-protected
space explorers
Question 21. The best title for this passage would be__________.
A.The Atmosphere and Our Environment
B. Research on Radiation
C. Effects of Space Radiation
D. Importance of Protection against Radiation

Have you ever had a dream about traveling to another planet in our solar system? If you have, there It an
actual programme that is happening right now, and it hopes to send people to Man in 2023. Known as the Man
One Mission, it will send a crew of four people on a one-way mission to colonize Man. Those chosen people
will have to be ready to say good-bye to the earth forever, as there will not be a return trip.
For the people chosen, they will have to learn to do many different things. First of all, they will be
living the rest of their lives with just a handful of other people, so they all must have personalities that allow

deal with that condition as well. If they feel homesick, they will only be able to communicate with people
back on the earth via e-mail and videos and audio sent back and forth. However, there won't be any real-time
communication. Even at the speed of light, communication between the earth and Mars takes about 20
