“My dream has come true. I have always wanted to be a Grand Slam (大满贯) champion（冠军）.” These are the words of Chinese tennis player Li Na after she became the first Asian woman to win a Grand Slam final in the French Open on June 4, 2011.
“People were saying I’m getting old. So this is a great success for such an old woman,” the 29-year-old girl joked.
Miss Li has a tattoo (纹身). She has dyed her hair many different colours. And, at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, she told her fans to “shut up” when they got too noisy in their support.
Li Na was born in Wuhan, she started to play tennis at the age of 6. She once recalled（回想起）, “As a child, I felt sad because every day I had to wake up（苏醒） early to practice. After school I had to practice more. I didn’t have time to play.”
Luckily, the strong girl didn’t give up（放弃）, thus（因此） making history for Chinese tennis time after time.
Now the new champion is already thinking about winning another Grand Slam title. “When you have one title, surely you will think about another,” she says, not hiding her ambition (雄心).
“Chinese people are so lacking (缺乏) in confidence（自信） on the tennis court(球场). If there is a person like me who can prove（证明） we Chinese can do it, the other young players in China will feel the same,” she said.
56. Li Na was born in the year of _____.
A. 1982 B. 1984 C. 1986 D. 1990

Astronauts have already visited the Moon and lived on space stations. They've never been to another planet, but they might visit Mars soon. Astronauts will spend about six months getting to the planet, then about two years on the planet and about six months travelling back to the Earth. They'll be away from the Earth for about three years, so they'll need much food.
It's very expensive to take food into space. It costs about 120 000 dollars to carry something that weighs(重) one kilo(千克). So an apple on Mars could cost 20 000 dollars! Of course, they will need to take much food with them to feed the astronauts for three years. This amount of fresh food can't stay fresh, and is very expensive to take, so they need to find food that is not very heavy.
At the moment, astronauts in space stations eat dried（干的） food. It's very light, so it doesn't cost much money to carry it into space. But astronauts stay healthier and happier if they eat fresh food. In the future, astronauts on Mars may grow vegetables like carrots and lettuce(生菜).
Astronauts on Mars will probably have special machines. They'll use these machines to change beans(豆) into food that tastes like meat or cheese. They probably won't eat real meat or cheese because it won't be possible to keep animals in space.
61. Which planet do the astronauts plan to go to next?
A. Mars B. Space C. The Moon. D, the Earth
62. How long will it take to get to Mars?
A. About three years. B. About two years.
C. About six months. D. About four weeks
63. Why do the astronauts eat dried food?
A. Because it is cheap to carry. B. Because it is cheap to buy.
C. Because it is very healthy. D, Because it is safe.
64. What may astronauts do in the future?
A. Eat only dried food. B. Grow some fresh vegetables on Mars.
C. Grow food in their spacecraft(宇宙飞船）.
D, Take enough fresh food
65. What will they get from beans?
A. Apples. B. Food that tastes like meat or cheese.
C. Real meat and cheese. D, Flowers
