Solar-panel fold failure may mean extra spacewalk
Fold failure
The retraction of a six-year-old solar array on the International Space Station (ISS) did not go to plan on Wednesday. Ground controllers left it only partly folded while they consider their options for getting the device pulled back fully. The problem may mean the crew of the space shuttle Discovery has to undertake a fourth spacewalk.
"We don't want to rush into a fix of a problem that just occurred，" says John Curry， Discovery's lead flight director. As a result， Thursday's spacewalk to tackle other jobs will proceed as planned， without a fix to the solar array.
Beginning at 1328 EST (1128 GMT) on Wednesday， ground teams and the astronauts inside the ISS attempted to fold one side of the 35-metre (116 feet) P6 solar array back into a box on the top of the ISS. This needed to be done so a newer P4 solar array can freely rotate to track the Sun without colliding with its neighbouring array.
After almost 6.5 hours of trying to get the array to retract and more than 40 remote-control commands sent to the array， only 13 and a half of the array's 31 segments were safely folded in the box.
However， this had pulled the array far enough back so the two arrays will not hit one another when P4 rotates for the first time. There are five metres of space between the two arrays at their closest points. Nonetheless， NASA wants to get the P6 array fully retracted before they move it to another part of the station on a future mission.
Pile up
There were actually two separate problems ground controllers encountered during the retraction.
First， the array behaved rather like a map that does not fold back together neatly. Some of its sections did not slide properly into the box. When this happened， they stopped the retraction， pushed the array back out a little， and then tried to retract again.
Wednesday's showstopper was caused by one segment in particular， known as bay 17.5. It would not slide into the box， causing a pile up when subsequent segments started to roll over on top of one another. NASA tried to retract the array beyond this point four times without success.
Reconfiguration
A fourth spacewalk could add one day to the already busy mission. Shuttle and station managers are considering sending astronauts to positions at the base of P6 and somewhere down its length to help guide the array into the box.
NASA teams were meeting overnight to discuss the safety of such an operation. Astronauts Bob Curbeam and Christer Fuglesang would be the crew members asked to make the spacewalk.
The solar arrays on the P6 element of the ISS have been in space since 2000， and this was the first time they had been retracted in six years. When they were installed， they were put on "top" of the station.
The newer arrays， part of the P4 element， were installed in 2006 in their permanent position on the end of a long truss. The P6 element will eventually be moved outboard of P4 on the truss. The other side of the P6 solar array will be retracted on a shuttle mission in 2007 in advance of this move outboard， so managers are eager to learn the cause of the problem and how to prevent it in the future.
Solar flares
Despite the setback， astronauts Fuglesang and Curbeam will make their second spacewalk on Thursday， as planned. During their excursion， they will help rewire the ISS so that the station will have enough electrical power to add energy-intensive components， such as future laboratories.
Meanwhile， for the past two nights， flight surgeons have asked the crews to sleep in areas of the shuttle and station with additional shielding to protect them from increased solar activity and the possibility of extra radiation heading their way. The Sun released a large solar flare at 0240 GMT on Wednesday. Satellites were expected to show some minor problems， but the astronauts were not expected to be in any danger.

年上半年雅思阅读考情及趋势分析!
笔者通过整理年1月1日至6月26日这段时间的数据，统计得出有效考试场次29场，有效阅读反馈83篇(有4篇阅读因缺乏有效内容，无法统计，故舍去)，并以此为数据基础分析得出年上半年雅思阅读单项的考情和趋势。
01、题型情况
下图是年上半年各大题型占比情况，以及和年全年数据的对比。
和去年对比，填空占比基本不变，目前仍然稳居阅读第 一大题型的位置，占了几乎三分之一。其次分别是判断题、匹配题、选择题以及小标题。其中，匹配题考察比例有小幅增长，而选择题占比出现了明显增长。相比之下，判断、小标题的占比略有下降，整体趋势变化不大。
通常来说，填空题在所有题型中难度最 低，考生做题时需注意审题和词性，不要因为粗心大意而丢分。判断题一如既往，需要考生通过大量练习来熟悉判断题常考考点以及区分false/no和not given。建议考生在审题的时候除了定位词外，还划出考点词，在对比原文时弄清这种信息或观点的不一致到底是自相矛盾(false/no)还是可以共存(not given)。
匹配题比重的略微提升意味着题型难度略增。它们大部分是乱序的，对考生的硬实力提出了更高的要求。选择题比重的上升也体现了这一点，这类题可以多个维度考察考生的阅读能力，包括细节的同义替换，作者意图的推理，段落或者文章的主旨等等。冲击高分的同学需要特别重视这两个类别的题型的练习，并且在平时做完题目精读时力求弄懂长难句和行文思路。此外，小标题的占比虽然下降，但想要拿高分的同学依然需要多加练习，做到各个题型无短板。
总之，雅思阅读的核心在于定位和同义替换。定位需要勤加练习来获得一种做题的手感，而同义替换则需要考生不断积累和巩固对应的词汇和表达，提高敏感度，从而更好联系文章和题目，提升解题速度和正确率。
另外需要注意的是三篇文章的题型组合，如下表格所示：
很明显，Passage 1最典型的题型还是“填空+判断”，偶尔会出匹配和选择题。建议考生在遇到不太常见的题型搭配时，不要慌张，沉着冷静先把熟悉、相对容易的题型先完成。基础较为薄弱的考生在考前练习时需加强填空和判断题的专项训练。
可以看到，Passage 2搭配方式多样，而最常见的搭配为“填空+匹配”和“填空+匹配+选择”。填空题出现几率依然很高。基础一般的考生可以考虑先做填空，再做乱序的匹配题。判断题出现几率不是很大。小标题也在Passage 2偶尔有出现，考生可以按行文顺序，结合者细节题来解题。
相比于Passage 2, Passage 3主要的几个题型中选择题比例明显变多，判断题比例上升而填空题比例则下降，这都体现了Passage 3本身题目的难度的增加。其中，小标题也有较低几率出现。“填空+判断+选择”和“判断+选择+匹配”是考察最多的题型搭配，前者单个题型来说都是遵循顺序原则，而后者因为涉及到乱序的匹配题，定位难度更大。
02、文章话题
通过下图可以看出年上半年文章话题的占比情况，以及和年全年数据的对比。
整体来说，年上半年，科学研究和社会现象的话题占了绝大多数，在Passage 1,2,3都出现过。甚至某几场考试中，三篇文章都属于这两个大类。其中，科学研究类文章的比例较年的数据有一定量的上升，而对应社会现象类文章则下降。科学研究类的文章有相当比例的行为学、心理学、管理学的内容，如”儿童学习的不同策略”、“艺术家们是否是骗子”、“领导应该要外聘还是内聘”等，并且集中在Passage 2和 3，文章本身难度和题型难度都较大。历史发展的话题有小幅提升，接近六分之一，在Passage 1,2,3都出现过。地理环境类一般出现在Passage2，占比从最小上升至倒数第二，文学艺术类反而成为了出现几率最小的文章。有意思的是，作为说明文的动物植物类的话题文章比例处于基本持平状态，一般出现在Passage1和2。
在年上半年的考试中，也重考了一些旧题，可以在9分达人阅读系列中找到原文或原题。总结如下：
以上的文章中，有几篇是过去几年都有反复考到的文章，如Otters,Musical Maladies。但是需要注意，反复考察的文章，在内容和题目上和考场文章可能会有差异，考生在用九分达人系列备考时，也尽量做到真正弄懂文章，切勿死记硬背答案或者囫囵吞枣。
03、趋势预测和备考建议
Vol.1
题型方面准备
下一季度依旧会以三大题型为主：填空、判断和匹配，备考过程中目标6-6.5分的考生要重点练习前两种题型，而目标7分以上的考生还需多关注匹配题的练习。此外，选择题比例估计会稳中有长，高分段同学需要进行针对练习，熟悉各个话题下不同选择题的一些考查方向：同义替换、适度推理、总结能力，且善用排除法来提升正确率。小标题上半年考查次数非常少，不排除下半年可能会适当增加小标题的考察量，也就是说平时练习时，除了细节题，主旨题也要适当进行练习。
Vol.2
文章话题准备
考生因为学术背景和知识经验的不同，对不同话题的文章的阅读难度感受可能完全不同，对应题目正确率和阅读速度也不同。比如学艺术类的考生可能对科研和地理类文章一筹莫展，而理工科背景的考生可能觉得管理类相关文章非常费解。所以，考生在备考时尤其要注意自己不太熟悉或者错题率较高的文章主话题类别，积累更多专业词汇和背景知识，从而增强对这类话题文章的理解，提升阅读速度。
Vol.3
备考资料和刷题方式
备考以剑桥雅思真题4-16为主。如果备考时间充裕，辅以九分达人。九分达人是一个很不错的辅导资料，甚至能让你在考试时遇到原题。平时刷题过程中，考生需要模拟考试时真实的紧张感，务必卡时间完成，在一小时内完成三篇文章，这样才不会在真正考试时慌张失措。个人建议Passage 1在15分钟完成，后面两篇各在20分钟左右完成。在对完答案后，不能就把文章丢到一边了，一定要精读文章。考生需弄清楚自己为何做错，是时间不够，词汇很多不认识，主题不熟悉，还是语法有欠缺导致长难句无法读懂，还是自己思路和考官不一致，总之要不断总结和积累，在辅导书的帮助下及时通过精读扫清词汇、语法和思路的障碍，在练习中结合他人经验逐渐摸索出适合自己的解题策略，这样阅读障碍会越来越少，阅读速度和正确率自然会不断提升。
