(6分)阅读理解 On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the moon. The space suit Armstrong wore on his lunar mission has come to symbolize courage and human achievement. In 1971, the Smithsonians National Air and Space Museum(NASM), in Washington, D.C., acquired (获得) Armstrongs suit. It stood proudly on display for visitors to admire, until there were changes in the suits appearance. Over time, the suit started to show signs of deterioration, Lisa Young said. Young is an objects conservator (文物修复员) at NASM. It is her job to preserve(维护)historical and cultural objects.Plastics are tricky to conserve, Young says. They tend to degrade (降解)over time. Neoprene is one type of plastic in Armstrongs suit. The material can turn brittle and break into tiny pieces. This would ruin the space suit. NASM, seeking ways to preserve this historical treasure, removed it from display in 2006.What causes plastic to degrade in the first place? Many things, Odile Madden says. Madden is a scientist in California. She explains that sunlight, water, humidity, and dust can cause plastics to degrade. Some plastics will break down no matter what we do, Madden says.Yet history can still be saved. Scientists have found that storing plastics in cooler temperatures, with lower humidity levels, can slow degradation. Young says Armstrongs suit is currently in storage at a temperature of 63F and a lower relative humidity of 30%. These conditions will be maintained when Armstrongs suit returns to a museum display case in time for the 50th anniversary of the moon landing.Plastic degradation affects art, too. Artist Claes Oldenburg created False Food Selection in 1966.It consists of plastic food displayed in a wooden box. The plastic food used to look real. Now, some of it has flattened and yellowed. Georgina Rayner is a conservation scientist at Harvard Art Museums, in Cambridge. She says the artworks wooden box produces an acidic (酸的) gas that eats away at the plastic. This speeds up the degradation process. But Rayner is motivated to conserve this artwork and others like it. Plastics are a part of our history, she says. Its important to preserve them so that future generations can understand the journey weve taken.(1)Neil Armstrongs space suit . A . is in storage at a higher relative humidityB . is considered as a symbol of plastic artC . was protected at Harvard Art MuseumsD . was removed from display in 2006(2)The word deterioration in Paragraph 1 probably means . A . becoming worseB . losing attentionC . getting strongerD . being valuable(3)What can we infer from the passage? A . Plastic artworks help future generations learn more about history.B . We can do nothing to prevent plastic objects from breaking down.C . The acidic gas is a necessity in the preservation of plastic objects.D . People are advised to use fewer plastic objects in their daily life.3. (8分)根据短文理解,选择正确答案。Many years ago, a young woman doctor named Jessie received a present-“a parrot” at her birthday party.
