    The movie The Martian (《火星救援》) is very popular among space lovers. It shows an astronaut trying to live on Mars.

    Although the idea of living on Mars is great, the reality does not look so good. Mars does not have a friendly atmosphere (大气层) for humans. There is very little oxygen there. And because it is too far away from the sun, it is also very cold there. Sometimes the temperature on Mars can be -133℃. This is much too cold for humans.

    However, scientists say it might be possible to live there even without a good atmosphere. Daytime on Mars is almost the same as Earth's. It means there's enough sunlight to grow plants inside safe buildings. However, they would have to grow in soil from Earth. Mars does not have a strong enough atmosphere to stop the radiation (福射) coming from space, which makes it dangerous to grow things in the soil.

    The radiation also causes problems for our health. One way to live there is to build homes underground or in the rocks on the planet. This can help humans keep away from the radiation and keep warm.

    When could we live on Mars? Scientists are hoping to make it possible to live on Mars. Let's wait and see.

(1)、What does the underlined word "It" refer to?
A、The chance B、The space C、The movie D、The reality
(2)、What is the main idea of the second paragraph?
A、Why humans can't live on Mars. B、Why Mars is good. C、Why humans want to live on Mars. D、Why Mars is so cold.
(3)、Which of the following doesn't allow humans to grow things on Mars?
A、Daytime B、Soil C、Sunlight D、Radiation
(4)、How many elements (要素) stop people from living on Mars?
A、Three B、Four C、Two D、One
(5)、Why did the writer write the passage?
A、To tell us how to live on Mars. B、To stop people from living on Mars. C、To tell us about an interesting movie. D、To show us how difficult it is to live on Mars.

    Fraser Island is in Queensland, Australia, about 200 kilometers north of Brisbane. It is about 120 kilometers long and 240 kilometers wide. It is a very important island because it is completely made of sand. In fact, it is the largest sand island in the world. There is no airport on the island, but there is a long beach along the east coast. Planes arrive and leave from here.

    The sand makes unusual shapes. There are hills made of sand called sandblows. Nothing grows on them. They move one or two meters a year from the northwest towards the southeast of the island, getting bigger and bigger. At other places on the island, such as Rainbow Gorge, The Cathedrals and Red Canyon, the sandy rocks have different colors. Sometimes the rocks are so brown that they turn the sea brown, like coffee.

    Surprisingly, the sandy island has a lot of different plants and animals. There are dark forests—eucalyptus woods, beautiful flowers and over a hundred lakes. There are many kinds of birds, like owls and curlews. There are many animals there, too, such as crocodiles, flying foxes and wild dogs called dingoes.

    About 500,000 people visit the island every year to see the island's beauty and nature. People enjoy camping and hiking(徒步)there. Unluckily, the visitors create problems. They damage plants and frighten animals. Their sun cream(防晒霜)makes the water dirty. So it is necessary to manage the visitors. For example, people may not use motor boats or go fishing in the lakes, and they need official papers to drive there.
