This is a true story in Guyuna. One day, a child took some silver(银的)paper from a cigarette box. He rolled it into a tiny(极小的)ball and pushed it up his nose. He couldn’t get it out again. He ran crying to his mother. His mother couldn’t get the paper out, either. A week later the paper was still in his nose. His nose began to have a bad smell.
So his mother took her child to the hospital. The doctor looked up his nose. She put a tiny steel rod(钢棒)into his nose and felt the paper. She said she would have to cut his nose to get the paper out.
The child’s mother came home looking sad. She didn’t want her child to have his nose cut. He was a handsome boy and the cut would make him ugly.
Next day, the child’s mother took him to her friend Sidney. Sidney lived in a house with an old woman called May. She asked to see the child, so the child let her look up his nose. He closed his eyes.
“Yes, I can see it,” May said, “It will be out soon!”
As she spoke, she shook black pepper(胡椒粉) on the child’s nose. He gave a mightly(有力的)sneeze and the paper flew out. His mother was surprised. May told her to take the boy to the sea for a swim. She said the salt water would go up his nose and stop the bad smell.

As space science develops, man has learned more and more about space. Space is not only amazing but also dangerous. While working in space, spacemen are facing danger as well as success.
Scientists have found out that the radiation(辐射)is the greatest danger to spacemen in space. When spacemen are working in space, they are in danger of the radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The harm of the radiation won’t be found until their children even grandchildren are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but no really effective medicine has been found so far.
Space rubbish is also thought to be a great danger to spacemen. It’s reported that there were 9,000 man-made things flying in space. About 30% of these are satellites, 10% are spaceships, and the rest are space rubbish. An explosion(爆炸)in space in 1999 made a cloud of 300,000 fragments, each at least 4mm in size. A small piece of these even knocked a spaceship window and caused some damage(损坏).
Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working to deal with space rubbish. Although space is really dangerous, it interests many people on the earth. In the near future, it may become possible for people to spend a few days in a space hotel. We may even choose to leave the earth and live in space in a few years. So we should do something to help improve the space environment.
51. The writer mainly wants to tell his readers that the space is full of _____.

54. The underlined word “fragments” in the third paragraph probably means _____.
A. broken pieces B. flying dust C. dangerous gases D. space radiation
55. What is the main purpose(目的)for writing the passage?
A. To ask people not to pollute the space environment.

Dear Editor,
I am a student in Grade Three. We have made a survey—“Who will you go to when in trouble”. Here are the results. Most of the students will go to their classmates or friends when in trouble because they’re almost of the same age. They can talk with, communicate with and understand each other easily. Some students will tell their teachers and parents as they have rich experience and love them very much and they can be trusted by these students. Only 10 percent of the students will solve their problems all by themselves. They hate to talk with others, and can’t get on well with others. But I think, when in trouble, we’d better ask our teachers, parents, friends or classmates for help.
