1、Passage 1 Astronaut selection is critically important to make a mission successful. It requires individuals who are capable of dealing with isolation from family and friends, crowded living conditions, great pressure to succeed and extreme danger. What are the criteria for an ideal astronaut? Generally, a person must be athletic and must possess both technical and interpersonal skills. Technical skills are particularly important. Astronauts need to be able to competently carry out scientific and technical tasks during the mission. They must be capable of taking accurate measurements and making observations while living in a weightless environment. Interpersonal skills are also critically important. Studies have shown that ideal astronauts are people who can be either intro verts(内向的人)or extroverts. Introverts tend to be withdrawn, which helps them put up with isolation from family and respect the privacy of others. On the other hand, extroverts are outgoing and provide social stimulation for a crew. Both character types are necessary for different reasons. There are many seemingly contradictory traits that astronauts should possess： introverted yet at times extroverted, leaders yet capable of being led, and so on. An astronaut? s ability to adapt to different situations is most important. As the duration of space missions increases, human factors become even more important. A manned mission to Mars would require a compatible crew that would ensure mission success, and of course, mission safety. Behavioral studies have been conducted in space analogs, which are environments similar to the confinement and isolation of space. These studies have shown that long periods of isolation can lead to sleep disturbances, emotional instability and depression—all things that would disrupt the work performance of a crew of astronauts. In order to minimize the chances of such conditions developing, the selected crew must get along extremely well. Easier said than done. Scientists at NASA used the analogy (类比)of a jigsaw puzzle to describe the relationship of a crew of astronauts. The members of space crews bear a certain resemblance to the pieces in jigsaw puzzles ： what is important is not so much the shape and color of each individual piece, but the way the different pieces fit together. There has been much debate over how a space crew for a potential mission to Mars should be selected, but currently a three-phase system is favored.In this selection process, the first phase is selecting a large group of people who satisfy the needed technical skills. The second phase is to pick out the individuals with the best interpersonal skills. The third phase is to group the individuals into mini-crews and then monitor those crews for compatibility as they undergo training for a mission. Finally, the most well-formed, smoothly-functioning crew of astronauts is selected as the best crew for the mission. Astronaut selection is a difficult process. Many potential candidates nearly perfect for the job are rejected because of minor details. However, if you dream of becoming an astronaut, don y t be discouraged by the odds. If the job description of an astronaut appeals to you, and you feel you have the aright stuffs for the job, then reach for the stars. In this case, the sky is not the limit. 41. An ideal astronaut is a person who________.
A.respects others’ privacy
B.is sociable and outgoing
C.adapts easily to different situations
D.is withdrawn from family and friends
2、Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “compatible” in the fourth paragraph?

B.Jigsaw puzzles are commonly used for astronaut training.
C.The shape and color of jigsaw pieces are attractive to astronauts.

4、The first phase of selecting the best crew for a mission to Mars is picking out those_______.
A.with good interpersonal skills
B.with excellent physical qualities
C.who function well together as a group
D.who can perform. many scientific tasks
5、Which might be a proper title for the passage?
A.The Ideal Astronaut.
B.A Manned Mission to Mars.
C.Astronauts and Jigsaw Puzzles.
D.Interpersonal Skills of Astronauts.
6、Passage 2 It began as just another research project, in this case to examine the effects of various drugs on patients with a severe mood disorder. Using an advanced brain scanning technology—the clumsily named echo-planar magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (磁共振光谱成像)procedure，or EP-MRSI—researchers at Boston’s McLean Hospital scanned the medicated and unmedicated brains of 30 people with bipolar disorder in order to detect possible new treatments for the more than 2 million American adults who suffer from the disease. But something unexpected happened.A patient who had been so depressed and could barely speak became ebullient after the 45-minute brain scan. Then a second patient, who seemed incapable of even a smile, emerged actually telling jokes. Then another and another. Was this some coincidence? Aimee Parow, the technician who made these observations ( she is now a medical student in New York) didn51 think so. She mentioned the patients’striking mood shifts to her boss, and together they completely refocused the study：to see if the electromagnetic fields might actually have a positive effect on depressive mood. As it turns out, they did.As reported last month in the American Journal of Psychiatry, 23 of the 30 people who were part of the study reported feeling significantly less depressed after the scan. The most dramatic improvements were among those who were taking no medication. The researchers are cautious. Says Bruce Cohen, McLean’ s president and psychiatrist in chief ：“ I want to emphasize that we are not saying this is the answer...but this is a completely different approach in trying to help the brain than anything that was done before. ” It’s a completely different approach because of the way the magnetism is applied to the brain. But it’s an example of new research on an old idea that the brain is an electromagnetic organ and that brain disorders might result from disarray in magnetic function. The idea has huge appeal to psychiatrists and patients alike, since for many people the side effects of psychiatric drugs are almost as difficult to manage as the disease itself. And 30 percent of the nearly 18.8 million people who suffer from depression do not respond to any of the antidepressants available now. People with other severe mental disorders might benefit as well. And while no one fully understands exactly why or how the brain responds as it does to electrical currents and magnetic waves, new research is offering some possible explanations. This area of psychiatric research and treatment has an unpleasant history to overcome. “Shock treatment，” technically known as electroconvulsive therapy(电休克疗法)or ECT，has been around since the 1930s, but it carries with it an unpopular public image which comes mostly from horrible movies. And in fact, it was in the early days a brutal procedure. But research on the magnetic brain has led to improvements in such treatments, and their use is on the rise. In 1980, 30,000 people received ECT;in 2001, nearly 100,000. Although there are still side effects—headaches and memory problems primarily—the days of bitten tongues, and broken bones are largely a thing of the past. And the response rate, especially for treatment of drug-resistant depression, is as high as 70 percent. 46. The project described in the first paragraph aimed at finding_____.
A.who had bipolar disorder
B.what improved people’s moods
C.whether magnetic scanning was a treatment for depression
D.how patients with a mood disorder responded to certain drugs
7、The word “ebullientin ”Paragraph 2 can be best replaced by________.
A.interested
B.quiet
C.excited
D.sorrowful
8、The findings show that electromagnetic fields may______.
A.treat mental disorders
B.cause mental disorders
C.reduce the effectiveness of some drugs
D.increase the effectiveness of some drugs
9、Which statement is true about “Shock treatment”?
A.It’s now the most popular mental treatment.
B.It’s becoming less cruel and more effective.
C.It has close relation with the movie industry.
D.It works only with drug-resistant depression.
10、The passage mainly________.
