On October 30th, 2024, China sent the Shenzhou XIX spaceship into space. Wang Haoze, a member of the Shenzhou XIX, is China’s first female spaceflight engineer.
Wang Haoze shared, “Many partners helped me. But it was my college teacher, Gu Fan, who led me to a career in the space. He had a strong interest in spaceflight and often talked about it with us, encouraging us to work for the space industry.”
After she left school, Wang worked on developing new models of rocket engines (引擎). It was a new field that she had never explored before. Facing new challenges, she enjoyed learning and overcoming difficulties, just like playing an interesting game.
Hard work and perseverance (坚持不懈) always pay off. Her first design was praised by a famous expert, making her an important part of her team. She later signed up for the selection process to determine the country’s third batch of astronauts. Finally, Wang and other seventeen men were chosen. In the course of the training, Wang met many hard challenges, but she never thought about giving up.
Looking ahead to her first journey in space, Wang said, “We have practiced our moves on the ground many times. I want to fly to the space as soon as possible to see what it looks like. I wish to float (飘) inside Tiangong to experience the weightlessness. I also hope that I can complete each task successfully and make our ‘space home’ better.”

In English, when someone is very angry, we say this person “sees red”, like the way a bull (公牛) goes wild after seeing a red cloth. Now it turns out that “seeing red” is not just an expression for angry people, but also a scientific fact.
Researchers at North Dakota State University in the US found that there is a connection between the color red and anger. Angry people really do “see red” where others don’t. And liking red more than blue might even shows someone likes competing or fighting.
The study includes a number of tests. During the first test, researchers asked a group of people which color they preferred, red or blue. These people then did personality tests. The results showed that those who picked red were more likely to be unfriendly.
In the second test, the people looked at pictures that had faded (褪色) and could be seen as either red or blue. Those who saw red got 25 percent higher scores in unfriendliness in the personality test. “Unfriendly people have unfriendly thoughts; unfriendly thoughts are connected to the color red, so unfriendly people see this color more often,” the researchers explained.
At last, the people taking part were told about made-up situations where they could do different things. The results showed that in these situations, people who liked red more were more likely to show that they would harm another person than those who liked blue. “An important thing from this research is that color can carry psychological (心理学的) meaning,” the researchers said.
9. The underlined word “see red” in Paragraph 1 probably means “______”.
A. to become sad B. to become very angry
C. to feel happy D. to feel tired
10. What did researchers at North Dakota State University discover about the color red
A. It has no connection to feelings. B. It is preferred by happy people.
C. It is connected to anger. D. It makes everyone feel sad.
11. The first test asked people to ______.
A. choose between red and blue colors B. look at pictures
C. play a game D. make a speech
12. What was the result of the two tests for people who saw red
A. They were more likely to be unfriendly. B. They were more likely to help others.
C. They were more likely to be calm. D. They were more likely to be creative.
【答案】9. B 10. C 11. A 12. A
