20、es. Soon the boy was pedaling around the street with his friends, having fun and getting exercise.

27、 is estimated to be about 93 billion light years across. With just our eyes, we can generally only see a few thousand light years worth of distance though there are some objects we can see that are much further away. The farthest object we can see with our eyes is Andromeda Galaxy (仙女座星系) located 2.

28、5 million light years away, and yet it is only visible if there is little light pollution. In order to see farther into space, we must rely on telescopes. How far can we see using the most powerful telescopes? The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was the record holder for the farthest visible distance i

29、n space until the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) in 2021. JWST is now the most powerful telescope ever built, and it is able to see the universe as it was only 200 million years after the Big Bang. That means that JWST is able to piece together an additional 300 million years of uni

30、versal history compared to HST. JWST will be able to study some of the first galaxies to form after the Big Bang. The farthest physical distance we can see is the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR). CMBR can be thought of as the echo (回声) of the Big Bang as it is the leftover radiation fro

31、m the birth of the universe. The CMBR itself is the farthest possible distance humans can see as it represents the moment that the universe became transparent to light. Although light did exist before CMBR, gas and dust were simply too dense for light to cross space. CMBR formed only 380,000 years a

32、fter the Big Bang, and so we are seeing the universe prior to the formation of even the first stars.8. Why does the author mention Andromeda Galaxy?A. B. C.

How Far Can JWST See?DIn many casual discussion of language on the Internet, its common to hear about how “textspeak (短信语言)” is ru

35、ining language. Some people argue that technology has made us lazy about how we speak and write. Mainstream media have complained about the way in which people communicate using technology. Of course, language does change when its used to text or write messages online. “Textspeak” is an evolution of

36、 language. Its even the focus of the field of linguistics (语言学) called Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC). This field is devoted to the study of interaction facilitated by technology like computers, mobile phones and tablets. People have been complaining about language being “ruined” as long as t

37、heyve been writing and speaking. In a talk, linguist John McWhorter shared stories of people complaining about language change through the ages. He said in AD 63, for example, a Roman scholar complained that students of Latin were writing in an “artificial language”. In fact, this writing was a new

38、language that would become French! Today, people are able to communicate rapidly using a wide variety of tools and technologies. Perhaps no linguistic development better indicates changes in the ways we communicate than the popular emoticon (表情符号), which can produce very clear pictures in our minds.

39、 The emoticon “:)”, for example, is a visual representation of a smiley face turned sideways. Although an emoticon may look like a smile, a frown or any number of facial expressions, it doesnt really represent a face. Instead, its intended to express a feeling, such as “Im happy” or “just joking”. E

40、moticons that represent these feelings are what linguists call discourse particles. These are little pieces of language that offer information about the tone of the statement though some elders feel puzzled about it. Far from ruining language, it turns out that “textspeak” enables people to communic

41、ate complex feelings in a simple, streamlined manner. This kind of change is perfect for the modern, fast-paced world.12. What have mainstream media complained about according to paragraph 1?A.
