There Pictures from outer space now show us how much land has changed on earth. These imag

es are taken by Landsat 7, a government satellite. The satellites have been used for 27 years. They reveal the clear-cutting of forests in the northwestern part of the United States. Pictures show the loss of rain forests in South America.

NASA's Darrel Williams speaks about the Landsat 7 Project. He said that an eruption caused trees to burn up in a large forest. Fifteen years later, pinkish images from space show that the trees and plant life are growing again. Williams says that clear-cut areas easily show up in the pictures. He wants Americans to look at how much land is being cleared of forests in our country.

Satellites have provided other information about changes on earth. In the past ten years, more than four miles have shrunk from glaciers in Alaska. Landsat 7 received these computer images of Glacier Bay in Alaska.

Hurricanes Floyd and Irene have damaged the coastline in North Carolina. Runoff from farms and silt have gone into the ocean according to satellite images. Loss of trees and forests have caused hotter summers in southern cities such as Atlanta, Georgia.

The Landsat 7 images are like pictures in a photo album. Instead of pictures of the family, the album shows changes around the globe in the past 25 years.

A new satellite, Terra, is going to be launched by NASA soon. It will be more advanced that Landsat 7 and will take important global pictures. Ocean temperatures and energy loss will be provided by Terra daily.

Landsat 7 shows how changes have occurred on land by sending back ______.

A.images taken with a Polaroid camera

B.the latest images taken by a government satellite

C.a television camera

D.astronauts

Parents can have a great impact on the development of their children's creativity in art.
But first,they have to know how. They may find the following advice interesting and instructive.

Encourage free drawing rather than coloring books. Coloring books stop the possibility of self-expression. A child may just enjoy colorful pictures and never learn how to express himself. As an art teacher says,“Children have a very powerful instinct to draw freely and roughly. Such practice makes them learn language easily. ”In fact,a child expresses himself in rough drawing. This is the beginning of literacy and creativity. Also,parents should not teach their kids“how”to draw and they should not make their kids draw realistic pictures to entertain themselves. Experience tells us that such teaching from the parents will discourage children,making them think they can't do it the “right”way.

Competition and rewards should also be avoided in the process of artistic creation. A child's natural instinct to create will disappear if he or she thinks about prize while drawing.

Parents should be role models for their kids. They should not say things like,“I can't draw a straight line. ”Instead,they should learn to say,“I love to create. ”This teaches children that the process of creation is more important than the product. If children see their parents drawing,cooking or building creatively,they will do the same.

Buy a notebook for your child to use every day. This can be a journal for making up stories,writing ideas and drawing pictures. Even the youngest child can use it to draw freely and roughly,expressing himself.

Take your child to places that promote ideas and creativity. Art museums,science centers,libraries and children's museums all are great places to see other people's creativity. That will inspire children to make their own creations and inventions.

Give children choices and free time. Some of the best ideas come from daydreaming and imagining.

In short,parents should allow their kids to have the freedom to invent for themselves. That means not always teaching and commanding.

To develop their artistic creativity,children should be encouraged to______.

A.draw freely and roughly

B.learn to draw realistic pictures

C.know how to draw before they start

D.learn to draw good pictures to get prizes

Of the six outer planets, Mars, commonly called the Red Planet, is the closest to Earth. M
ars, 4,200 miles in diameter and 55% of the size of the Earth, is 34,600,000 miles from the Earth, and 141,000,000 miles from the Sun. It takes this planet, along 0with its two moons, Phoboes and Deimos, 1.88 years to circle, the Sun, compared to 365 days from the Earth.

For many years, Mars had been thought of as the planet with the man made canals, supposedly discovered by an Italian astronomer, Schiaparelli, in 1877. With the United States spacecraft Viking I's landing on 'Mars in 1976, the man-made canal theory was proven to be only a myth.

Viking I, after landing on the soil of Mars, performed many scientific experiments and took numerous pictures. The pictures showed that the red color of the planet is due to the reddish, rocky Martian soil. No biological life was found, though it had been speculated by many scientists. The Viking al so monitored many weather changes including violent dust storms. Some water vapor, polar ice and permafrost were found, indicating that at one time there were significant quantities of water on this distant planet. Evidence collected by the spacecraft shows some present volcanic action, though the volcanoes are believed to be dormant, if not extinct.

Which of the following is true?

A.Mars is larger than the Earth.

B.Mars had Viking as its moon.

C.Martian soil is brownish rod.

D.It takes longer for Mars to circle the Sun than it takes the Earth.
