A decade ago, Sakae Kato stayed behind to rescue cats that were got rid of by neighbors in a hurry to escape the radiation （辐射）clouds coming out of the nearby Fukushima nuclear plant （核电站）.

I like living in these mountains,"  he said, standing in front of his house, which he is al- lowed to visit but, technically speaking, not allowed to sleep in.

The Blue Mountains' scenery and closeness to Sydney make it a very popular tourist destination.

Off the coast of New South Wales lies called Lord II owe Island. Created by a volcano , the island is surrounded by beautiful reefs. Two mountains lower over a bay with sandy, white beaches. After enjoying beach walks, mountain hikes, water activities, bird watching and more, visitors feel they are on cloud nine.

What is a star? We are all pretty familiar with stars. We see them on most clear nights as tiny shining light spots of light in the sky. Stars are the topic of countless poems, stories, and children's songs. But, exactly, what is a star?

A star is a ball of gas, which gives out light. The gas is mostly made up of H2 and He, held together by its own gravity. Nuclear fusion （核聚变）reactions in its center part support the star against gravity and produce photons （光子）and heat, as well as small amounts of heavier elements. The Sun is the closest star to Earth.

According to present theory, stars are born as a huge ball within huge gas clouds that fall in suddenly themselves. The cloud's material heats up as it falls inward under the force of its own gravity. When the gas reaches about 10 million K （18 million °F），Ha nucleus （原子核） begin to fuse into He nucleus, and the star is born. Energy from nuclear fusion radiates outward from the center of the rapid-growing star, and gradually prevents the gas cloud from falling in.

A star's color relies on its temperature： hotter stars give out bluer light and cooler stars give out redder light. Temperature is also related to weight. Red dwarf stars have as little as 0. 075 solar and the surface temperature is less than 4,000 K. The heaviest star known at present is R136al, a Wolf-Rayet star 265 of times the Sun—its surface temperature keeps at a red-hot 50,000 K.

The heaviest and hottest stars exhaust their energy within a few million years, while tiny and cool red dwarf stars can keep on burning for many billions of years.

32. What can we learn about stars from the first paragraph?

A. They are children's favorites. B. They are small shining light clouds.

C. They are popular with writers. D. They are seldom described in stories.

33. What does the author mainly intend to tell us in paragraph 3?

A. Why stars give out light. B. What starts are made up of.

C. How stars come into being. D. Where stars finally go.

34. What makes stars' color different from each other?

A. The kind of gas included in them. B. Their surface shapes.

C. The distance between them. D. Their temperatures.

35. What's the best title for the text?

A. What Is a Star? B. How Does a Star AffectEarth?

C. Why Is a Star Important? D. Where Does a Star Comefrom?

Noise pollution isn't just annoying： it can cause deafness, tiredness, and even mental problems. 36 The following measures will help your community stay quiet：

Don't use your car horn （喇叭） unnecessarily. Don't be part of the problem by leaning on your horn every time someone looks at you wrong on the street. Use your horn only when absolutely necessary. 37   .

Keep your music down. It might sound beautiful to you, but others might not feel the same way. 39    If you know that the neighbors don't mind, feel free to keep your windows open and let them enjoy your musical taste, but don't just wish that everyone wants to hear your favorite music as much as you do.

40    Whether the rule is unspoken or obviously published, make sure you don't make noise at night. Don't put your neighbors in the position of having to ask you to be quiet, since it makes for unfriendly relations. Do your best to be a good neighbor so you can expect the same from those around you.
