According to preliminary market surveys, there are 10,000 would-be space tourists willing to spend $1 million each to visit the final frontier. Space Adventures in Arlington have taken more than 130 deposits for a two-hour, $98,000 space tour tentatively set to occur by 2005. This may sound great, but there are a few hurdles: Putting a simple satellite into orbit--with no oxygen, lift: support or return trip necessary—already costs an astronomical $2,200/kg. And that doesn't include the cost of insuring rich and possibly litigious (爱打官司的) passengers. The entire group of entrepreneurs trying to comer the space- tourism market has between them "just enough money to blow up one rocket".
The U.S. space agency has plenty of money but zero interest in making space less expensive for the little guys. So the little guys are racing to do what the government has failed to do: design a reusable launch system that's inexpensive, safe and reliable. Kelly Space's prototype looks like a plane that has sprouted rocket engines. Rotary Rocket in California has a booster with rotors to make a helicopter-style. return to earth. The first passenger countdowns arc still years away, but bureaucrats at the Federal Aviation Administration in Washington arc already informally discussing flight regulations. After all, you can't be too prepared for a trip to that galaxy far, far away.
Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.Take Vacations in Space
B.Building Hotels in Space

When Mike Kelly first set out to build his own private space-ferry service, he figures his bread-and-butter business would be lofting satellite into high-earth orbit. Now he thinks he may have figured wrong. "People were always asking me when they could go," says Kelly, who runs Kelly Space & Technology, "I realized the real market is in space tourism."

For most of us, dieting is a frustrating fact of life. With so much conflicting nutritional information about, it can be difficult to tell which weight-loss strategies really work. Let' s start by discounting these confusing myths.
1. All calories are created equal
What you eat, not how much, is the main factor behind weight gain, according to research. Calories from fat pack on the pounds. The reason: during digestion, the body bums many more calories metabolizing protein and carbohydrates than it does metabolizing fat.
2. Desserts are taboo
Cakes. pies and ice cream can sensibly be worked into a diet, the expert says. Moderation is the key. Cut down on other meals if you' 11 be eating out at a restaurant known for its rich sweets. Or indulge, but take only a few bites.
3. Fast foods are forbidden
A plain hamburger on a bun is still a healthful choice. So is grilled chicken or a green salad with low-cal dressing. But watch out for French fries, milkshakes and batter-dipped chicken or fish.
4. Fasting is the fastest diet
Some studies suggest that drastically reducing calorie intake switches the body into a "starvation mode", which conserves calories and, decreases your metabolic rate. The more frequently you deprive yourself of food, the better your body may get at Storing calories. So, in the long run, repeat- ed fasting may actually undermine your weight-loss efforts.
5. To keep weight off, simply watch what you eat
According to experts, exercise combined with dieting ensures weight loss better than dieting a- lone does. Experts also agree that sticking with regular, moderate exercise is more important that occasional vigorous workouts are. Obesity-researcher Kelly Brownell encourages patients to make a series of small physical efforts: taking the stairs instead of the elevator and parking the car far from where you are going and walking.
"Most important, before getting caught up in dietary myths, let good sense shape your eating habits. Your body will thank you for it.
第 6 题 It cannot be inferred from the first paragraph that
A.the information about dieting is always contradictory
B.there are too many weight-loss strategies to choose from
C.dieting is always troublesome to most people
D.people should not believe the ideas of dieting

听力原文: Beijing: The United States and North Korea had their first face-to-face meeting in four months here this afternoon as part of the six-nation negotiations on how to end North Korea's nuclear program, but diplomats played down prospects for an early breakthrough.
The talks are at the Diaoyutai state guesthouse, a sprawling, garden-filled compound in western Beijing, with negotiators gathering around a giant hexagonal table built to accmmodate the six delegations.
The Chinese placed the Americans and the North Koreans in adjacent comers, which may have facilitated the one-on-one discussion between Mr. Kelly and Mr. Kim, which took place during a break in the afternoon session. The two spoke for 30 minutes, two Asian diplomats confirmed.
The early indications of how the talks are going varied. A South Korean who took part in the meetings described North Korea as "willing to resolve the nuclear issue through dialogue," Chinese officials also put a positive spin on the talks. "I heard talks this morning and this after- noon were very successful," the foreign minister, Li Zhaoxing, told delegates during a reception.
But Japanese and Russian participants were, however, more cautious. The Russian deputy foreign minister, Aleksandr Losyukov, described the negotiations as fragile."So far, the countries have put forward a number of preliminary demands, which are blocking the development of these talks," he told Russian reporters in Beijing. "I would not say that I am feeling great optimism."
