Here are some of the museum’s most moving moments. The Olympic Park The journey through the Olympic Museum begins in the Olympic Park, an 8,000-square-meter outdoor area in front of the museum overlooking Lake Geneva and theAlps. The park contains artwork and sculptures that show respect to the world of sport. The first Olympic Symbol The “Olympic Rings” flag was designed by Coubertin in 1913. The rings represent the five continents that participate in the Olympics: Africa, Asia,America,AustraliaandEurope. The six color1 s include at least one color1 that is represented on the flag of every country. The Stadiums The stadiums that host the Olympic Games are as much of a celebration of design as the games are a celebration of sportsmanship. Guests can explore plans and models of Olympic stadiums’ past and present, including one of the games’ most attractive stadiums, the Bird’s Nest from Beijing 2008 Olympics. The Olympic Medals Have you ever wondered what an Olympic medal looks like? The Olympic Museum has a room that houses every bronze, silver, and gold medal from every Olympic Games dating back to the first modern Olympics of 1896. Each medal design is a unique representation of the year and location in which the games were held. 1.Which moment do you see first when exploring the Olympic Museum? A.The Olympic Park. B.The first Olympic Symbol. C.The Stadiums. D.The Olympic Medals. 2.What can you do in the section of The Stadiums? A.Celebrate the glory of a sportsman. B.Meet the designers of the stadiums. C.Explore the future stadiums. D.Enjoy the model of the Bird’s Nest. 3.In which column of a newspaper may this text appear? A.Entertainment. B.Science. C.Travel. D.Business. B In 2002, young Elon Musk tried unsuccessfully to buy Russian rockets to help him send mice to Mars and back. Afterwards, the youngmillionaire decided to build his own rockets. Musk went to Southern California and started hiring people to help bring his dream to life. In a very short time, and despite some failures, his company SpaceX launched Falcon 1, the first successful privately-built liquid fuel rocket, into Earth's orbit in 2008. As the first Falcon rocket began testing, development was already underway for the Falcon 9. This much larger rocket, which uses nine engines to lift heavy payloads（有效载荷）into orbit, is engineered to return to Earth, ready to be reused for another flight. For Musk, space is the final destination. To help people get there, his company Neuralink is developing devices that will link people's brains with computers. A similar device has been developed at the University of Utah. It consists of a chip（芯片）with 256 threads（线程）that is placed between a person's skin and brain. The threads attach directly to brain tissue（脑组织）.Patients who have the device are able to use only their minds to communicate with one another through computers. Neuralink's chips will have about 1,000 threads. A robot developed by the company will place up to ten chips under a person's skin. The chips will communicate without wires but with a tiny device that will be worn behind the person's ear. That device, in turn, will communicate with computers. The primary market for the technology will be for people that, because of injuries or birth defects, cannot control their hands and arms. With Neuralink^ product, they'll be able to mentally command a computer to type messages for them or carry out other tasks. 4. According to this article, what was the first Falcon 1 able to do? A. Launch big satellites. B. Reach distant moons. C. Move around our planet. D. Study the universe. 5. What does the article explain about Neuralink's chips? A. How they'll be set up. B. What safety features they'll have. C. How much money they'll earn. D. Where they'll be produced. 6. According to this article, who is Neuralink going to market its product to first? A. Those who own great wealth. B. Those who are physically disabled. C. Those who travel internationally. D. Those who do research on plants. 7. In which publication is this article most likely to appear? A. The Journal of Environmental Studies. B. Advances in Business and Technology. C. Digest of Fashion and Entertainment News, D. Consumer's Guide to Outdoor Recreation. C Humans have found an easy way to tell if others are lying. Recent research shows that the best way so far is being clever at how you ask questions and listen to the answers. Much of this research is based on the idea that telling a lie is simply harder mental work than telling the truth. Making up a story takes more effort than simply recording something that happened. And like a writer, a liar has to keep all the unreal details in his memory and sound believable when he explains them. One method that seems to work is asking them to tell their story in reverse order. This is harder when the story isn't true and makes it easier for you to tell they are lying. An even more basic way that helps is to just ask more questions, especially unexpected ones. Truth-tellers can easily find more to say, but it's a challenge for a liar to come up with something that's not in his prepared story. Researchers suggest that you shouldn't lay all your cards on the table at the start, but only gradually present what proof you have. The liars' stories may not agree with that proof, making it clear that they're lying. So it looks like there are ways to increase the chances of catching a liar; we've just been basing our methods on the wrong stories. Low-tech ways of causing people to make mistakes in conversation seem to work better than any science about eye movement or machines used to recognize a liar. To find a liar, watch less and listen more. 8. Why does the author mention the writer? A. To show it's hard to make up lies. B. To show it's hard to recognise a liar. C. To show writers know liars best. D. To show writers are very clever. 9. What do we know about liars? A. They often have much to say. B. They often ask many questions. C. They usually prepare a made-up story. D. They usually feel good about themselves. 10. What advice is given to help people catch liars? 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/2bf009d907a1b0717fd5360cba1aa81144318f15.html
