听第一篇短文,完成第15至17小题。

Some people want to be sent into space after their death, others want to lie deep under the sea. But most people want to go into the freezer(冷藏库). Now some diseases can't be cured, but they may be cured sometime in the future. So some people hope that their bodies can be frozen after they die. That's a new thought, and around 1,000 people are going to have a try, though some scientists say it won't work. Can they be brought back to life in the future? That's a question.

Good evening, and welcome to tonight's programme. We are going to talk about alien life. The first UFO was reported in 1878 in the USA. A man was working on his farm and looked up to see a large, round object in the sky. Since then, however, there have been many UFO reports.

Most have been in the USA. Some people think that these UFOs are alien spaceships, but most UFOs are easy to explain as something else. However, aliens have always been popular in the films.There were more than 50 films about aliens made in Hollywood in the 1950s. My favourite film about aliens is Men in Black. In this film, aliens are living all around us, but in secret.
