Many people enjoy chewing gum, but in 1992 Singapore decided to make it against the law. The government said that people were not careful about throwing away used gum. Instead, they dropped it on the sidewalks and streets, which made a big mess. Chewing gum also stuck in the doors of the subway or underground trains so that the doors didn’t close properly. This meant that the trains could not run on time. That means people had to give up chewing gum or pay a lot of money to the government. During the ban on chewing gum, the streets and subways of Singapore were clean.

Now the government of Singapore has changed the rules a little. Some dentists say that sugarless(无糖的) chewing gun can help people take care of their teeth.

VII．阅读理解（二） （每小题2分;  共10分）

    阅读下面短文，简要回答所给问题。

At the moment, it may be difficult to imagine, but many people believe that, by the year 2100, we will live on the planet Mars. Our own planet, Earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. Luckily, we can start again and build a better world on Mars. Here is what life could be like.

First of all, transport should be much better. At present, our spaceships are too slow to carry large numbers of people to Mars — it takes months. However, by 2100, spaceship can travel at half the speed of light. It might take us two or three days to get to Mars!

Secondly, humans need food, water and air to live on. Scientists should be able to develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce the food and air that we need. However, can these plants produce water for us? There is no answer now.

There is a problem for us to live on Mars. Mars pulls us much less than the Earth does. This will be dangerous because we can easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To prevent this, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to make themselves heavier.

Life on Mars will be better than that on Earth in many ways, People will have more space. Living in a large building with only 10 bedrooms is highly possible. Many people believe that robots will do most of our work, so we have more time for our hobbies.

There will probably be no school on Mars. Every student will have a computer at home which is connected to the Internet. They can study, do their homework and take exams in online schools. Each student will also have their own online teacher called “e-teacher”.

However, in some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on the earth today. Food will not be the same — meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also, space travel will make many people feel ill. The spaceship will travel fast but the journey to Mars will probably be very uncomfortable.

71．What will our Earth be like in about 90 years?

_________________________________.

72．It takes our spaceship months to carry people to Mars at present, doesn’t it?

_________________________________.

73．What should scientists do to make it possible for humans to live on Mars?

_________________________________.

74．How should humans prevent from easily jumping too high and flying away?

_________________________________.

75．Why can we have more time for our hobbies if we live on Mars?

_________________________________.
