At just 18 years old, Canberra student Lochie Ferrier has already conducted research in a frontier field — aerospace engineering. Aerospace engineering is the primary of engineering concerned with the science and technology of aircraft and spacecraft.
In 2014, he was one of 80 high school students worldwide who a six-week science and engineering program at MIT. During the program, he was by the institute’s scientists, and developed a method to identify inactive satellites. This method, called OASIS, is designed a way to help manage space debris(碎片), which operating satellites.
“One solution to this problem is a robot that can gather pieces of space debris and store them in orbit,” he says. “These pieces could be to new satellites later, thus the costs and launch weights of new satellites.” However, satellite identification technology would be needed for this solution, and that’s what Lochie is working on. “I hope this method would be put into practice in the near future, in the next 10 years,” he says.
Lochie has made the of the Young Innovators category of the Australian Innovation Challenge Awards with his OASIS. This category is open to students aged 21 years or and carries a $ 5,000 prize. If he won, he would use the money to help fund research into OASIS. “My plan for using the money would be to try to use materials which could stand up to the environment of space,” he says.
He is also considering how to the technology to organizations such as NASA and satellite manufacturers.
Lochie’s in aerospace engineering was aroused by the big dish antenna(碟形天線)at NASA’s tracking station near Canberra,which he visited in his early teens. He said his software design and development teacher at Canberra Grammar School him, too. “He taught me valuable project management and skills which I applied to OASIS.”
Lochie has been attending Canberra Grammar School and will soon exams for admission to universities. He his time between schoolwork, his personal projects such as OASIS and the development of apps, rock climbing, and playing classical violin. The teenager is well on his way to realizing his sky-high ambition.

Disease, poverty, hate, love—Charles Dickens’ stories opened his readers eyes to the most important themes of his age. Two hundred years on, his stories still speak volumes across the world, proving that Dickens’ legacy(遺產) was far greater than just “great literature”
February 7 marks the 200th anniversary of the writer’s birthday. To mark this date, BBC writer Alex Hudson listed six things Dickens gave the modern world. Let’s take a look at two of them.
A white Christmas
Dickens is described as “the man who invented Christmas”—not the religious festival, but the cultural aspects that we associate with the festive season today. In the early 19th century, Christmas was barely worth mentioning, according to critic and writer Leigh Hunt. The committee which ran the Conservative Party even held ordinary business meetings on Christmas Day – unthinkable in the West nowadays, when everyone but the most necessary workers takes at least three days off.
Many people believe that Dickens’ popular descriptions of the festive period became a blueprint for generations to come. In his classic novel, A Christmas Carol, he not only put forward the idea of snow at Christmas, but also painted a picture of glowing warmth –“ home enjoyments, affections and hopes”.
In his biography of Dickens, Peter Ackroyd wrote: “ Dickens can be said to have almost single-handedly created the modern idea of Christmas.”
“Dickensian” poverty
Dickens was one of the first to take an honest look at the underclass and the poor of Victorian (the period during British Queen Victoria’s reign from 1837 to 1901) London.
He helped popularize the term “red tape” to describe situations where people in power use needless amounts of bureaucracy(官僚作風) in a way that particularly hurts the weaker and poorer members of society.
“Dickensian” has now become a powerful word for describing an unacceptable level of poverty. In 2009, when the president of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers in the UK wanted to talk about deprivation in some areas of Britain, she did not use words like “terrible” or “horrific”, but rather described it as “l(fā)ife mirroring the times of Dickens”.
1.What is the main idea of the article?
A. An introduction to Charles Dickens’ classic novels.
B. Charles dickens’ impact on the world.
C. Charles Dickens’ amazing characters.
D. Why Charles Dickens is popular across the world.
2.Why is Dickens called “the man who invented Christmas”?
A. Because he created the religious festival.
B. Because many of his novels have something to do with Christmas.
C. Because one of his novels helped to shape Christmas celebrations.
D. Because he was the first man to have proposed celebrating Christmas.
3.According to the article, the phrase “red tape” refers to _______.
A. rules or procedures that are required to accomplish a task
B. a situation in which poor members of society are hurt.
C. conflict between people in power and weaker people
D. pointlessly time-consuming official procedures

For the rest of March,a disease will sweep across the US.It will keep kids home from school.1.Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.
The disease,known as “March Madness”,refers to the yearly 65-team US men's college basketball tournament (錦標賽).2.Teams compete against each other in a single-elimination (單局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.
Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness.The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game.Friends compete against friends.3. Colleagues against bosses.
Big-name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament.But each year there are dark horses from little-known universities.
This adds to the madness.Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000,for many Americans,is an exciting experience.Two years ago,the little-known George Mason University was one of the final four teams.4.
College basketball players are not paid,so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves.5. About $4 billion will be spent gambling (賭) on the event.According to Media Life magazine,the event will bring in $ 500 million in advertising income this year,topping the post -season income of every US professional league,including that of the NBA.

As they migrate(遷移), butterflies and moths(飛蛾) choose the winds they want to fly with, and they change their body positions if they start floating in the wrong direction. This new finding suggests that insects may employ some of the same methods that birds use for traveling long distances. Scientists have long thought that insects were simply at the mercy of the wind.
Fascinating as their skills of flight are, migrating behavior has been difficult to study in insects because many long distant trips happen thousands of feet above ground. Only recently have scientists developed technologies that can detect such little creatures at such great heights.
To their surprise, though, the insects weren’t passive but active travelers on the winds. In autumn, for example, most light winds blew from the east, but the insects somehow sought out ones that carried them south and they positioned themselves to navigate(導航) directly to their wintering homes.
Even in the spring, when most winds flowed northward, the insects didn’t always go with the flow. If breezes weren’t blowing in the exact direction they wanted to go, the insects changed their body positions to compensate(抵消). Many migrating birds do the same thing.
The study also found butterflies and moths actively flew within the air streams that pushed them along. By adding flight speeds to wind speeds, the scientists calculated that butterflies and moths can travel as fast as 100 kilometers an hour. The findings may have real-world applications.
With climate warming, migrating insects are growing in number. Knowing how and when these pests move could help when farmers decide when to spray their crops.
1.What’s the main idea of the text?
A. Insects migrate with the seasons
B. Wind helps insects greatly in migrating
C. insects have real direction
D. Scientists have trouble in observing insects
2.Scientists originally thought that .
A. insects always waited for their favorable winds
B. insects chose the winds they wanted to ride
C. insects were just blown about by the wind
D. insects positioned themselves in the winds
3.It is not easy to study the migrating behavior of the insects because .
A. the little creatures can fly very fast
B. their flight is long and high above ground
C. the wind’s direction is hard to foresee
D. they have no regular migrating courses
4.According to the passage, the findings can .
A. increase insects in number
B. instruct farmers when to spray
C. prevent climate warming
D. help protect insects
