8．September 21，2050----At a press conference today it was announced that the first tourist heading for Mars will be the 38-year-old US businessman Patrick Clifford．He will leave the earth in the  launching window of June 2052 and set his foot on the surface of Mars in November，together with the other 6 astronauts assigned for the mission to further explore the planet．
Patrick has now two years of training ahead of him to get ready for the trip．Not only will he spend five months in getting to Mars，but another 600 days there before he can go back home．Patrick was of course very excited，"This has been my dream since I was four，and seeing the first man on Mars 20 years ago made me realize that it was possible．"
To be able to pay the $ 1.3 billion for his ticket for the trip Patrick sold his majority stake （股份） in the company his father had built．"I know that my father would have been proud of me if he had still been alive today，he knew what this means to me"，says Patrick．There is no risk though that you will find Patrick begging in your street corner when he comes back， but it is said that he was paid twice as much for his part of the company．
So，how is he going to spend his 600 days on the red planet？"Well，since I don't have a job when I get back after selling the company，I have plenty of time to come up with a new business idea"，he says and laughs．If he brings a shovel（鐵鍬）he can start building the first hotel there，but maybe he shouldn't expect too many guests until someone can offer a cheaper ticket．
13．How long will Patrick Clifford be away before he comes back？D
A．About five months        
B．About two years           
C．About 600 days            
D．About 750 days
14．The underlined part in Paragraph 3 means thatC
A．the trip will turn Patrick into a beggar   
B．Patrick will get much money from the trip
C．we needn't worry about Patrick's economic condition
D．it's likely that Patrick will be very poor after he comes back
15．What can be inferred from the passage？A
A．Patrick is an optimistic man
B．A total of six people will go to Mars
C．Patrick's father felt excited at the news  
D．Patrick will spend all his money on the trip．

2．Science can't explain the power of pets，but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure （血壓） and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack，reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer．
Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings．For some，an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife．A 2002study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress （緊張） levels and blood pressure in people-half of them pet owners-while they performed 5minutes of mental arithmetic （算術(shù)） or held a hand in ice water．Subjects completed the tasks alone，with a husband/wife，a close friend or with a pet．People with pets did it best．Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates．With pets in the room，people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions．It seems people feel more relaxed （放松）around pets，says Allen，who thinks it may be because pets don't judge．
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits．Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs； a separate group of 56people without pets were put on a diet program．On average，people lost about 11pounds，or 5% of their body weight．Their dogs did even better，losing an average of 12pounds，more than 15% of their body weight．Dog owners didn't lose any more weight than those without dogs but，say researchers，got more exercise overall-mostly with their dogs-and found it worth doing．
28．What does the text mainly discuss？A
A．What pets bring to their owners．
B．How pets help people calm down．
C．People's opinions of keeping pets．
D．Pet's value in medical research．
29．We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well ifA．
A．he has a pet companion
B．he has less stress of work
C．he often does mental arithmetic
D．he is taken care of by his family
30．According to Allen，why did the people do better with pets around when completing stressful tasks？C
A．They have lower blood pressure．
B．They become more patient．
C．They are less nervous．
D．They are in higher spirits．
31．The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports thatA．
A．people with dogs did more exercise
B．dogs lost the same weight as people did
C．dogs liked exercise much more than people did
D．people without dogs found the program unhelpful．
