The structure of houses have changed a lot since the first hut was building in ancient times. I often imagine what houses in the future will like. I am sure it will be greatly different from that they are today. First, houses in the future can adjust the room temperature with the changes of season. Second, they prevent waste by producing energy through their solar panels, that can be used to provide hot water in winter and cool air in summer. Beside, they can change their colors at any time to satisfy with their owners.
In short, living in a future house will be amazed.

Many years later, when people recall the 2018 Russia World Cup, they will remember many things. With the tragic ending of the defending champion Germany, Mexico has triumphantly and suddenly lost three goals in the face of Sweden. But people will never forget the back of a lonely person . That is Lionel Messi.
31-year-old Messi took off the green armband of his left arm and suddenly fell out. In the recent match, he and his team lost the game against France. The 19-year-old striker Mbappé relentlessly ripped apart the Argentine defense line and scored twice, which made a great contribution to the victory of France.
On this planet, anyone who knows a little about football knows the name Lionel Messi and his golden years from 2007 to 2017.
In 2007, 19-year-old Messi tied Real Madrid three times with a hat-trick, and began his legendary career.
In the past ten years, Mr. Football, the Golden Globe Award and the Golden Boot Award have been taken over by him.
He led Argentina and Barcelona to make a name for themselves in the world, and has a brilliant record in the Champions League, America's Cup and World Cup.
Eleven years later, Messi stood on the Kazan Stadium. After four World Cups, he knew that this might be the last time he led Argentina to the World Cup.
Since 1986, Argentina has never won a championship again. As a captain, he has a great responsibility, even stating that he would withdraw from the national team if he did not win the championship this year.
This is a prophecy.
Messi, who eventually failed to save the game, did not receive any interview after standing up on the lawn; leave behind only a legendary image for the world.

In cooperation with German experts, Several scientists from the University of Bradford believe that they finally solved a mystery that has been confusing millions of people: why our hair turns gray with age.
The researchers came up with their results by examining native hair and cells from human hair follicles（毛囊）. They say the secret turns out to be hidden in catalase（过氧化氢酶）, which is causing hair to turn gray.
Catalase production goes down with age and stress, allowing hydrogen peroxide（过氧化氢） in the hair to do its favorite job—making hair gray, and then white, by blocking the normal production of melanin（黑色素）. Melanin is our hair's natural pigment that is responsible for the color of hair. It also determines the color of our eyes and skin.
Dr. Gerald Weizmann, an editor of a journal, says," All of our hair cells make a tiny bit of hydrogen peroxide, but as we get older, this little bit becomes quite a lot, and our hair turns gray and then white."
The new study brings hope for millions of people who have to color their hair: to finally obtain some shampoo that will decrease levels of hydrogen peroxide and therefore restore gray or white hair to its natural color or even prevent it from turning gray.
The researchers are already conducting an experiment with such a drug on a few volunteers with gray hair and expect to get the results in the next two to three months. If everything works out, millions of people will choose between this drug and other previously used expensive dyes. However, even if the drug works, it will take at least several years before it can be brought to the market.

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The new study shows it's harmful to color our hair with dyes.
B. Dr. Gerald Weizmann is in charge of the new drug experiment.
C. Our hair cells make lots of hydrogen peroxide when we are young.
D. We may restore our gray or white hair to its natural color with shampoo.
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Only a small number of people can use the new drug.
B. Most of the volunteers in the experiment are old people.
C. The drug cannot be brought to the market soon even if it works.
D. The researchers have already known the results of the experiment.
