As we all know, Tianwen I is China's first Mars probe (探测器). It was named after a poem called Quest for Heavenly Truth by Qu Yuan, a great poet during the Warring States Period.
On July 23, 2020, Tianwen I was launched (发射). It landed on its planned landing area in the southern part of Utopia Planitia, a plain on the northern hemisphere of Mars on May 15, 2021. That means a Chinese spacecraft landed on the surface of Mars. The success rate of Mars landing has been below 50%, but our great country finally made it! After a week after the landing, the Mars rover (任务车), Zhurong, rolled onto the Martian soil. Named after the Chinese ancient God of fire, Zhurong is 1.85 metres tall and weighs about 240 kilograms. It has six wheels and four solar panels, and looks like a blue butterfly. And Zhurong has been in good working condition.
On March 4, 2021, the first high resolution (高分辨率的) pictures of Mars taken by Tianwen I were made public by the China National Space Administration (CNSA). The two black-and-white pictures were taken by the high-resolution camera on Tianwen I when the probe was about 330-350 kilometres above the Mars. As for the colour picture, it was taken by Tianwen I's medium-resolution camera when the probe was about 5,000 kilometres above the red planet. It shows Mars' North Pole.
The success has made China the second country in the world to explore the Mars.
( )33. From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2, we can infer the writer feels _____________.

It was about ten at night. The cop(警察) stopped at doors as he moved along the street, trying each door to be sure that it was closed for the night.
Near the door of a darkened shop a man was standing. As the cop walked toward him, the man spoke quickly, “It’s all right, officer. I’m waiting for a friend. Twenty years ago there was a restaurant where this shop stands. Big Joe Brady’s Restaurant.”
“It was here until five years ago,” said the cop.
“Twenty years ago tonight the man near the door said, “I had dinner here with Jimmy Wells, my best friend. He and I grew up together here in New York. The next morning I was to start for the West to make my fortune(财富). You couldn’t have pulled Jimmy out of New York. He thought it was the only place on earth. We agreed that night we would meet here again exactly twenty years from that date and time. We thought that in twenty years we would know what kind of men we were, and what future waited for us.”
“It sounds interesting,” said the cop.
The man waiting took out a fine watch, covered with small jewels(珠宝). “Three minutes before ten,” he said. “It was ten that night when we said goodbye here.”
“You were successful in the West, weren’t you asked the cop.
“I surely was! I hope Jimmy has done half as well.”
The cop took a step or two. “I’ll go on my way,” he said. “I hope your friend comes all right. Good night!”
About twenty minutes later, a tall man came hurrying across the street. He went directly to the waiting man. “Is that you, Bob ” he asked.
“Is that you, Jimmy Wells ” cried the man at the door. “You’ve changed. I never thought you were so tall.”
“Come on, Bob! We’ll find a place and have a good long talk about the old times.”
At the corner stood a shop bright with electric(有电的) lights. When the two men came near, each turned to look at the other’s face.
____▲____. “You’re not Jimmy Wells,” he said. “Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change a man’s nose.”
“It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one,” said the tall man. You’ve been under arrest(逮捕) for ten minutes, Bob. Now, before we go on to the station here’s a note I was asked to hand you.”
Bob unfolded(打开) it. His hand began to shake a little as he read.
Bob: I was at the place on time. I saw the face of the man wanted by Chicago cops. I didn’t want to arrest you myself. So I went around and got another cop to do the job.
