2．Jahkil Jackson is the creator of the famous Project I Am.Through the project，Jahkil looks to raise awareness for reducing homelessness in Chicago and beyond.
Even at a very tender age，his deeds already drew the recognition of former U.S.President Barack Obama in 2017.Jahkil also pushes to motivate and influence fellow kids to get more active and useful in their communities.When he was five years old，Jahkil assisted his aunt in distributing food to the homeless in Chicago.The then little boy was unhappy to find out that people could not afford a home.He was always eager to find out how he could offer help to people.And he would be mad for not being able to give money to anyone asking for help on the streets.He was determined to help the homeless in every way he could.
That strong desire later gave birth to the Project I Am，his nonprofit organization，which focused on helping the homeless people.He founded it at the age of eight，and has since then never looked back on his journey of charity.
Through Project I Am，Jahkil Jackson reaches out to the homeless by distributing "Blessing bags".Provided in the blessing bags are diverse kinds of materials to help the needy，including wipes，hand sanitizers，toothbrushes，toothpaste，socks，bottled water，among other things.

3．Space tourism is the term used to describe space travel for recreational or leisure purposes.What was once only a dream，as described in A Space Odyssey by Arthur C.Clarke，is now becoming a reality.
Futurologists attempt to make predictions of what life will be like in the future.After the first man landed on the moon，they thought that hotels would be built on the moon by the year 2000.They also considered the possibility that，in the 21st century，families might go for a holiday on the moon.Neither of these predictions have come true yet-but the rapid development of technology may mean these predictions are possible in the years to come.
Space Adventures is currently the only company to have succeeded in sending paying passengers into space.It worked with the Federal Space Agency of Russia and Rocket and Space Corporation Energia to provide flights for the world's first private space explorers.Each paid over ﹩20 million for their 10-day trip to the International Space Station.
Following successful explorations into space，other companies are now considering the possibility of enabling tourists to visit space.To make it affordable，suborbital space travel is being considered by some companies，like Virgin Galactic.Passengers would be transported to a height of between 100 and 160 km above earth，experience 3-6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars before back to earth.This is expected to cost around ﹩200，000 per person.
Whilst it could be an enriching experience，there are some disadvantages.Many critics say that a huge growth in the spaceflight industry could drastically speed up the process of global warming.The ozone layer would be damaged further and the polar regions would suffer.In addition，space travel is only really affordable for the super-rich，though Virgin Galactic claims to be 'opening space to the rest of us.
（1）What do you know about space tourism？
A．It is nothing but a dream.
B．It's only in some fairy tales.
C．It's a sightseeing tour in space.
D．It's a scientific expedition.
（2）What is Paragraph 2 mainly about？
A．The future life on the moon.
B．Landing on the moon in 1969.
C．Predictions about trips to the moon.
D．The history of the moon exploration.
（3）Why is suborbital space travel considered possible？
A．It's cheaper.
B．It's safer.
C．It's greener.
D．It's convenient.
（4）What is some critics' major concern about space tourism？
A．Its safety.
B．Environmental effect.
C．Social equality.
