Mr Chen was puzzled（困感的） and a little suspicious（怀疑的）．He sat in the office and studied a letter apparently（看似）from Mrs Wang．the mother of one of the pupils in his class．There was something about it which worried him．
"l don' t understand， "he said to himself．He shook his head as he circled four mistakes in the letter，"Mrs Wang is an educated woman．She wouldn't make mistakes like these even if she did write the letter in a hurry． "Mr Chen look out his class register（名册）and said to himself．"Yesterday was Thursday． Let me see， Ah， yes，I thought so．David was absent on Thursday last week and the week before． Hm． Why is he so often absent on Thursdays？ Was he really ill yesterday？Could it be a coincidence（巧合）？"
Mr Chen stared at the register as if the answers to his questions were hidden in it somewhere．Then he took out a copy of the timetable（课程表） or his class．
"I wonder …"he said to himself．"I wonder if his absence has anything to do with one of these lessons．"

Mr Chen glanced round the office to find Mr Long．the rather strict P．E． teacher，but he was not there．
"I′d better have a chat with Long and David， "Mr Chen thought．

Later，on Friday， Mr Chen spoke to Mr Long，the P．E．teacher． Mr Long agreed that it seemed strange for David to be absent so often on gym days．They thought about it for a while．
"David is a good athlete（运动员）．"Mr Long finally said，"but he's afraid of heights．I was hard on him once because he wouldn 't climb more than a couple of metres up the rope．Do you think that's why he's been absent recently？"
"Yes，I think so， "Mr Chen said，"I'm going to talk to him this afternoon before he goes home．"
"Well， I've got a suggestion to make， "said Mr Long．"If he's scared of heights， he'd better come and see me after school．Quite a few people suffer from（遭受 ）vertigo． I'll be glad to help him．"

[1] In today's world， the most successful companies are the ones who understand how important it is to make contacts（联系）around the world． However， doing business in different countries isn't simple． It is important to know the local customs and traditions of the people you are dealing with， which is the best way to impress（使…印象深刻）your hosts．
[2] One example that comes to mind is of a German company that has recently tried to gain （获得）a new contract in South Korea． The German visitors arrived at the Korean company's office early in the morning and spent the whole day in long meetings． By the evening， the Germans were so tired that they politely turned down the Korean's invitation to go out for dinner and drinks， since they wanted to return to their hotel and get some rest． The Germans did not understand that in South Korea business talks often continue into the evening． The Germans only came to realize that they offended（冒犯）their hosts after they had lost the contract．
[3] In Europe or the USA， business is seldom discussed into the evening． However， it is important to be on time for a meeting． If you are ① late ， your hosts may think you do not care． In fact， it is better to arrive at least ten minutes before the meeting starts． This way， you can show how keen（强烈的） you are to do business with them．②You will also have time to talk with your hosts before you sit down to discuss business．
[4] However， in many countries meetings may not start on time． There are many ③ reasons for this， such as transport difficulties， unusual weather and the breakdown of cars．
Sometimes the time of day is also important． In South America and many countries in southern Europe， people have a short sleep after lunch． Therefore， if you try to arrange（安排） a meeting for

Earlier this year， China achieved a new milestone （里程碑） in space research． On January 3， 2019， Chang'e﹣4 became the first lunar probe （月球探测器） in history to successfully land on the far side of the moon．
The Earth's gravity （重力） slows the moon's rotation （自转）， matching it to the speed of its orbit （公转）． Therefore， the far side of the moon is almost "dark" and has never been seen． It's this sense of the unknown that makes the far side of the moon such an interesting place for scientific and space research． Being blown by solar （太阳的） winds， the far side may have the special minerals （矿物质 ）． For this reason， Chang'e﹣4 will study the effect of solar winds on the lunar surface and any mineral found by the spacecraft． Chang'e﹣4 is also carrying flower seeds， potatoes and silkworm eggs to see whether life is possible on the moon． If it is， then the moon will become a possible choice for space travel in the future．
However， research of the "dark" side isn't easy． As the far side is blocked（阻断） off from us， radio noise coming off Earth is also blocked． This is why China's relay satellite （中继卫星） Queqiao was sent up in May， 2018． Thanks to Queqiao， the communication problem between Earth and Chang'e﹣4 has been well solved．
Power supply （电源供应） is also a challenge to the task． Chang'e﹣4 gets energy from the sun through its solar panels． As we know， a lunar day has the length （长度） of 28 Earth days． After Chang'e﹣4 was sent up on December 8， 2018， it took the probe over 20 days to orbit the moon to be in a position to be able to land in moon daylight and use its solar panels．
Luckily， everything goes well， Chang'e﹣4 has worked on the "dark" side for over 5 months． It has sent back many photos of the far side of the moon and has been used to carry out some scientific experiments．
The New York Times used the word " groundbreaking" to praise the task and wrote that "it will offer help to the history and development of the moon"．

A． In May， 2018．
B． On December 8， 2018．

A． studying if life is possible on the moon
B． studying the effect of solar winds on the lunar surface
C． solving the communication problem between Earth and other probes
D． researching any mineral found by the spacecraft

C． risky
