Hiram Fong grew up in Honolulu, Hawaii. He began picking beans when he was only four years old to help support his family. Fong also sold newspapers, shined shoes, and worked as a golf caddy when he was a boy. A golf caddy is a person who carries a player’s golf clubs.

Fong began working in Hawaii’s government in 1938. At that time, Hawaii belonged to the United States, but not a state. Fong believed that Hawaiians should be able to take part in making laws for the United States government, just as other Americans could. Fong said Hawaii should be a state of the United States. In 1959, Hawaii became the fiftieth state, and Fong was chosen as one of Hawaii’s first two senators (參議員). He became the first Asian-American in the United States Senate.

As a senator, Hiram Fong supported equal (平等的) rights. For example, he wanted the laws about immigrants (移民) to be fairer. He wanted to improve conditions for workers in factories and businesses. He also believed that women and men should be paid the same for doing the same job. In a lifetime of hard work, Fong found more than personal success. His work helped millions of people.

People have always been dreaming of going to the moon. As long as the year 1901, H. G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book vividly describing a trip to the moon. On landing there, the explorers discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. Words failed to express their surprise when they spotted so many “moon people”. The “moon people” felt even more surprised. “Why,” they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you don’t even use your inner space?”

H. G. Wells could only imagine a travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really left their footsteps on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.

Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The “Channel”, a tunnel connecting England and France, is now complete.

But what about underground cities? Japan’s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities”. The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太陽能穹頂) would cover the whole city.

Supporters of underground development argue that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth’s space. The space, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H. G. Wells’ “moon people” would second it. Would you?

1.The explorers in H. G. Well’s story were surprised to find that the “moon people” .

A.knew so much about the earth

B.understood their language

C.lived in underground cities

D.were advanced in technology

2.What does the underlined word “it” (paragraph 2) refer to?

A.Discovering the moon’s inner space

B.Using the earth’s inner space

C.Meeting the “moon people” again

D.Traveling to outer space

3.What sort of underground systems are already in place?

A.Offices, shopping areas, power stations.

B.Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.

C.Gardens, car parks, power stations.

D.Tunnels, gardens, offices.

4. We can learn from the text that .

A.H. G. Wells once went to moon himself.

B.Underground cities are more comfortable.

C.The solar dome is a necessary part of underground cities.

D.More underground systems will be in place in 2013.

5.What would be the best title of the text?

A.Alice Cities — cities of the future

B.Space travel with H. G. Wells

C.Enjoy living underground

D.Building down, not up
