Role models are powerful.No matter what stage of life you're at，it's good to have someone who encourages you to be the best version of yourself.Recent winners of national commendations mean we have a wider range of possible role models.
42 people were awarded with the Medal of the Republic，the Friendship Medal and national honorary titles.They have made big contributions to the nation's construction and development.
Chinese scientist Tu Youyou is one of the eight who were awarded the Medal of the Republic.Tu，who won the 2015 Nobel Prize for her discovery of the malaria drug artemisinin（抗瘧藥物青蒿素），is the first Chinese citizen to win a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.She has saved millions of lives worldwide.She has also made important scientific innovation in traditional Chinese medicine.
"It is my dream that Chinese medicine will help us conquer life—threatening diseases worldwide and that people across the globe will enjoy its benefits，" Tu once wrote in the science journal Nature Medicine.
Tu is not the only one who has given her life to the country's development.Nan Rendong，before his death in 2017，led the research and development of China's Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope，the world's largest radio telescope.He worked on the project for more than 20 years.The facility he designed helps humans search for extraterrestrial civilizations （外星文明） and marked a Chinese technological milestone.His contributions to Chinese astronomy earned him the title， "the people's scientist."
Also receiving awards are six foreign friends who have lent their hands to assist with China's prosperity.Former French Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin，an honoree of the Friendship Medal，is an advocate of the Belt and Road Initiative.Having worked to strengthen the friendship between French and Chinese people in the past decades，he told Xinhua that he is "sincerely pleased" with the honor. "To work for this friendship is to work for peace，" Raffarin said.
Thanks to the great efforts made by these heroic figures，we can live in a prosperous and peaceful country.Hopefully these role models can also light the way for future nation buildings.

2．Nuclear bombs.That's the go-to answer for incoming space objects like asteroids（小行星） and comets，as far as Hollywood is concerned.Movies like Deep Impact and Armageddon rely on nuclear weapons，delivered by stars like Bruce Willis，to save the world and deliver the drama.
But planetary defense experts say in reality，if astronomers spotted a dangerous incoming space rock，the safest and best answer might be something more subtle，like simply pushing it off course by crashing it with a small spacecraft.
That's just what NASA did on Monday evening，when a spacecraft headed straight into an asteroid called Dimorphous，which is around 7 million miles away and poses no threat to Earth.It's about 525 feel across and orbits another larger asteroid.
In images streamed as the impact neared，the egg-shaped asteroid grew in size from a little spot on screen to have its full rocky surface come quickly into focus before the signal went dead as the craft hit right on target.
Events happened exactly as engineers had planned，they said，with nothing going wrong. "As far as we can tell，our first planetary defense test was a success，" said Elena Adams，the mission systems engineer，who added that scientists looked on with "both terror and joy" as the spacecraft neared its final destination.
The impact was the peak of NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test （DART） ，a 7-year and more than ﹩300 million effort which launched a space vehicle in November of 2021 to perform humanity's first ever test of planetary defense technology.It will be about two months，scientists said，before they will be able to determine if the impact was enough to drive the asteroid slightly off course，probably shortening its original orbit.
NASA plans to launch an asteroid-hunting space telescope named NEO Surveyor in 2026. "We've tacked lots of space rocks，especially the larger ones that could cause extinction-level events.Thankfully，none currently threaten Earth.But many asteroids the size of Dimorphous haven't yet been discovered，and those could potentially take out a city if they came crashing down." explains Lindley Johnson，NASA's Planetary Defense Officer.
（1）How did scientists know the craft hit the asteroid successfully？
A．The signal from the craft was lost as it hit the target.
B．They recorded the whole process with a telescope.
C．The little spot on the screen suddenly disappeared.
D．They monitored the craft with satellites in space.
（2）What is the purpose of launching the spacecraft？
A．To search for evidence of alien life.
B．To end the asteroid's threat to Earth.
C．To save the world and deliver a drama.
D．To test technology for defending Earth.
（3）What can be inferred about Dimorphous？
A．It is a dangerous incoming space rock.
B．It is an egg-shaped asteroid around Earth.
C．It may orbit the same asteroid after the hit.
D．It is expected to blow up after the impact.
（4）Which statement will Lindley Johnson probably agree with？
A．Asteroids are equally destructive whatever the size.
B．NEO Surveyor is aimed to track smaller asteroids.
C．Larger asteroids will no longer threaten Earth.
D．NASA is responsible for the safety of Earth.發(fā)布：2024/12/11 2:0:1組卷：6引用：4難度：0.5 -
