A team of 5 Endon High School students—Dan，Charlie，Joe，Josh and Nathan，joined up with BBC Radio Stoke’s Online team to build the School Day website．Here’s what Joe had to say about working on the“BBC Radio Stoke School Day”website．
Today has been a great day for me！I have been working since a quarter past eight．This morning I got up really early．At half past six，I got dressed and ate my breakfast．I was so nervous that I missed up．When I got here，I started taking pictures of Janine’s show．Later the man from The Sentinel came to take our pictures（I have never had my pictures taken so much!）I made two webpages．Jonathan，Becky and Kristin were on the online team．They were great for help and organization．I have put lots of pictures into the“BBC Radio Stoke School Day”gallery which was very interesting．I have learnt how to take photos properly and how to make them more focused．The most enjoyable thing about today is seeing my work on the BBC Radio Stoke website．It is very interesting and enjoyable．

APRIL 5 marks the 100th anniversary(周年紀念日)of the sinking(下沉)of the Titanic. In 1997, the movie Titanic was a huge hit all around the world. Now, the 3-D version of the movie will come to Chinese theaters on April 10.
As anyone who has seen the movie knows, the Titanic struck an iceberg(冰山) and sank on its first voyage in 1912, killing 1,517 people. A century after the accident, scientists have found something new to blame(負責任) for the sinking: the moon. Donald Olson, a Texas State University physicist, led a team of astronomers(天文學家) to examine the moon’s role, according to Reuters.
Normally, icebergs stay in place and cannot move until they melt enough or a high tide(潮汐) frees them. A single iceberg can become stuck many times on its journey southward. The process can take several years.
According to Olson, a hundred years ago the moon made its closest approach to the Earth in more than 1,400 years. This caused the moon to have a much stronger pull on the Earth’s oceans than usual, which created a super-high tide. The tide pushed icebergs from shallow waters off the coasts of Canada’s provinces, Newfoundland and Labrador, into the Titanic’s way.
“Of course, the final cause of the accident was that the ship struck an iceberg,” Olson told Reuters. “It went full speed into a region with icebergs, but the lunar connection(月亮的聯系) may explain how an unusually large number of icebergs got into the path of the Titanic.”
The research team will publish their research in the April issue of Sky & Telescope magazine.

George Mallory was an English school teacher who loved climbing. In 1924, Mallory and a team of British climbers tried to get to the top of Mount Qomolangma, the tallest mountain in the world. No one had ever done it before.
Mallory had already t 1.to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma in 1921 and 1922, but he had failed b 2. times. In 1924, he started to climb again. On June 8, 1924, he and another climber, Andrew Irvine, were only a few hundred metres a 3.from the top of the mountain. The other m 4.of their climbing team watched as Mallory and Irvine climbed slowly up towards the top. However, the weather was very misty, and soon the two men d 5. into the mist（霧）. They could never r 6. .In 1953, Edmund Hillary from New Zealand, and Tenzing Norgay from Nepal, finally r 7. the top of Mount Qomolangma. Most people thought that they were the first men to do this, but some people wondered w 8. Mallory and Irvine had got there first.
Many years later, in 1999, Mallory's body was found on Mount Qomolangma, about six hundred metres from the top of it. However, it is still u9.if he and Irvine ever reached the top of the mountain.
Someone had once asked Mallory w10.he wanted to climb the most dangerous mountain in the world.
“Because it's there,” he answered.

After spending years searching for a planet with life, scientists may have found one. In September 2010, a team of US scientists discovered an Earth-sized planet called Gliese 581g. It has a surface temperature neither too hot nor too cold for liquid（液態）water. Scientists think there is a chance that the planet could have life.
The planet Gliese 581g goes around a star called Gliese 581, which is about 20 light-years from Earth. That is about 194 trillion（萬億）kilometres －500 million times farther away from us than the moon.
A spacecraft traveling at a one-tenth of the speed of light would reach Gliese 581g within about 220 years. A human can’t live that long, but robotic explorers could make the job easier. However, our fastest spacecraft don’t come anywhere near that one-tenth light-speed mark.
At present, scientists don’t know what the surface might be like on Gliese 581g. What they know is that the planet is at the right distance from its star to have liquid water. It’s also at the right distance to have an atmosphere that could protect the water if it is on the surface.
Although spacecraft won’t be getting there anytime soon, one way to look for life on Gliese 581g is to turn our radio telescopes（望遠鏡）towards the planet and search for radiation（放射）. By studying the radiation, scientists would find out about the chemicals（化學物質）around the planet and discover if Gliese 581g has an atmosphere. If it has one, studying the atmosphere would give us a good idea whether the planet has life or not. But it’ll probably be many years before we can do this properly.
People have been arguing about whether there is alien life on Gliese 581g. Any discussion about alien life is just guessing at this point, according to its discoverers.
1.What did scientists find in September 2010?
A．A planet with water. B．A planet similar to the earth.
C．A planet without life. D．A planet near the earth.
2.According to the article, Gliese 581g ________.
A．is at the right distance from its star B．moves around the earth
C．is as far away from us as the moon D．can be reached in about 220 years
3.Paragraph 5 is mainly about ______.
A．the possibility of living on Gliese 581g
B．the kinds of chemicals around Gliese 581g
C．the way of looking for life on Gliese 581g
D．the aim of studying the radiation on Gliese 581g
4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage above?
A．Gliese 581g, a Likely Living Planet B．Gliese 581, a Likely Living Planet
C．Gliese 581g and Its Star D．Gliese 581g and Radiation
