Last December,I was invited t a party in a cmpany that prvides rfing services. I’d never been there befre, and I had it in my head that I’d
walk in and see men with a smell f metal, asphalt shingles(沥青瓦) and truck il in the air.But the image I created in my head was far frm the truth.
As I walked up t the main entrance f Universal Rfing in Indianaplis,I was greeted by a lvely lady.We didn’t knw each ther,but she was s
welcming and led me straight t the Grilliant Fds barbeque buffet.
I sn filled my plate and headed fr a table ppulated with peple I didn’t knw.After several bites, I started meeting my fellw table mates: a mix
f a retired emplyee, a custmer, and a partner,all f whm were talking abut hw lng they had knwn Rb,wh was the wner f the cmpany, and
the pleasant experiences f wrking with him. I persnally was mst impressed with the retired emplyee at the table.He was back and enjying himself
simply because he missed the peple.
After lunch I started t walk thrugh the hall.I was impressed with hw nicely decrated everything was.Frm the chice f clrs n the walls,the
furniture ,and flring,there was lve put int the decratin.
On my walk,I was sn stpped, hugged and thanked fr cming by Rb, and his sn, Sam. In reality, they hadn’t knwn me all that lng,but there
was an unspken feeling I had—I felt at hme.
Later, I visited their website. “Rb treats everyne wh wrks fr him like family,” reads the website. Actually, he treats everyne like family,and
because f that,everyne arund him treats the peple they encunter like family.It’s what has made him s successful in business and in life.

Nt nly was Gene Strattn-Prter ne f Indiana's mst well-knwn authrs, but she was als an envirnmentalist, phtgrapher, and artist. Gene
shared her passin fr the envirnment and wildlife in her writing and used her influence t fight fr the preservatin f nature and alert thers t the
imprtance f their natural surrundings.
Brn in 1863 in Indiana, she grew up with a lve f nature and spent mst f her inncent childhd wandering thrugh farms and frests, catching
butterflies and bserving birds like dves and small animals like geese. In 1886, Gene married Charles Prter. Althugh she expressed happiness with her
family life, Gene lived a mre independent life traditinally unavailable t wmen in the late nineteenth century. Gene insisted n writing and
phtgraphing wildlife arund her cabin near Limberlst Swamp. There she expressed her passinate feelings twards nature and its preservatin. She
spent much time in Limberlst, and later the cabin became the site where she cnducted field studies n Indiana's natural envirnment.
Early in her life, Gene studied nature in the Limberlst Swamp and recrded her thrugh bservatins thrugh phtgraphs and detailed writings.
Gene published dzens f bks—nvels, nature studies, petry cllectins and children's bks. Her bks mainly cnnect readers t natural settings
and earn her a high reputatin. One f her best-knwn nvels, A Girl f the Limberlst is abut a lnely girl wh lives n a farm and escapes frm her
sufferings in Limberlst.
Gene's legacy (遗留物)is visible nt nly within her bks, phtgraphy and films but als within the Limberlst Swamp, which eventually faded away
t the farmland. Frtunately, thrugh her hard wrk and dedicatin, the land is slwly being restred t its natural state, with ver 400 acres preserved
fr nature study tday.

C．She spent an unfrgettable childhd n the farm.

As an astrnmer(天文学家)，I am accustmed t bserving the universe in quiet places. I bserve galaxies in the deep universe-places s far away
that their light takes billins f years t reach ur eyes.
Smetimes I wnder what ur wn galaxy lked like billins f years ag, befre slar system was brn. I ften stare at the Hubble Deep Field(哈勃
深空区)searching fr clues∶galaxies clliding(碰撞)，stars explding，and stellar nurseries. Can lking t the stars bring us clser tgether?
A cuple f mnths ag，Betelgeuse，a bright star in the Orin cnstellatin(猎户座) started t get dimmer and dimmer. Astrnmers all ver the
wrld thught this might be a signal that the star was abut t explde. Thugh it might nt happen fr anther 1000 years r mre, still I went utside
every night t check it ut. I was hping that it wuld explde. Imagine seeing a star shining as bright as the full mn even during the day.
I started dreaming abut using such an event t remind everyne that stars prduce nearly all f the chemical elements in the universe, which came
directly ut f the Big Bang. Everything we breathe, tuch and see was made inside f stars. The irn in ur bld, calcium bnes, and almst the entire
peridic table are prducts f stellar evlutin.
Betelgeuse did nt explde, and mre recent bservatins nte that it is actually returning t nrmal. But nthing is nrmal here n Earth nw. I am
beginning t realize that we did nt need a star t explde t unite us. All we needed was a cmmn prblem.
I am hping that everyne n the planet is saving sme time t cntemplate（凝视，沉思)the universe and t realize we are nt alne. N matter
where we are r wh we are, we are n this planet tgether. Since we are all made f stars, lking up at the night sky gives us a glimpse f ur past and
ur future, and we can cntemplate bth tgether.
【小题1】Why des the authr write this article?
A．T advise thers t stare at a ptentially explding star recently.
B．T research int the scientific mystery in the universe with readers.
C．T discuss the prper relatinship between human and the universe.
D．T suggest us thinking abut the way human beings live in this wrld.
【小题2】Accrding t the article, Betelgeuse________.
A．is a star the authr tracked fr years
B．will prduce chemical elements if it expldes
C．is a nrmal star which is disappearing
D．will explde in ten thusand years
【小题3】"Such an event"underlined in Paragraph 4 refers t________.
A．Betelgeuse's ptential explsin
B．Betelgeuse's getting dimmer and dimmer
C．the authr's checking ut every night
D．a star's shining as bright as the sun
【小题4】What's the best title f this passage?
A．What shuld an astrnmer d?
B．Shuld we knw mre abut the universe?
C．Lking t the stars can bring us clser tgether.
