I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field dominated by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space-time and the nature of black holes.
At 19, when I began studying astrophysics (天体物理学),it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph. D. at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement—jobs, research papers, awards—was viewed through the lens of gender (性别)politics.So were my failures.
Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus (相对于)right brain, or nature versus nurture (培育),I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.
Then one day a few years ago , out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any and all provocations(挑衅):I don’t talk about that
anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender itsues. Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory.
Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how many of the 45 students in my class were women.You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer: 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don’t dismiss those concerns. Still, I don’t tell them “war” stories. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that’s a sight worth talking about.
24. Why doesn’t the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again?
A. She feels unhappy working in a male-dominated field.
B. She is fed up with the itsue of gender discrimination.
C. She is not good at telling stories of the kind.
D. She finds space research more important.
25.From Paragraph 2,we can infer that people would believe the author’s failures were due to .
A. the burden she bears in a male-dominated society
B. her involvement in gender politics
C. her over-confidence as a female astrophysicist
D.the very fact that she is a woman
26. Why does the author feel great satisfaction when talking about her class?
A. Female students no longer have to bother about gender itsues.
B. More female students are pursuing science than before.
C. Her female students can do just as well as male students.
D. Her students’ performance has brought back her confidence.
27. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph suggest?
A. Women can balance a career in science and having a family.
B. Women have more barriers on their way to academic success.
C. Women students needn’t have the concerns of her generation.
D. Physics professors who are heavily pregnant have to do physics experiments at the same time.
C
With graduation drawing near,I have to make some decisions about my future. Do I want to spend another four years studying at university? Am I ready for the world of work? The only thing that’s clear to me is that my vague dreams of making films or singing in a band are becoming more and more unlikely. It’s probably nothing unusual, but I’ve just come to the realization that, although I’m good at lots of things as an ordinary girl,t5m not brilliant at anything.
My parents, trying desperately not to influence my choice,have so far offered limited guidance. My dad,who went into construction straight from school and doesn’t regret a thing, talks about being passionate about whatever you do. My mum, a teacher,holds the same view. However,on balance,she feels that qualifications gave her more options when she was ready to decide.
Most of my friends seem to be in the same position as me. One or two have decided on degrees in medicine or law. Six months ago we might have laughed at them. Saving someone’s life in an operating theater or giving speeches in a court seemed so grown-up! Now t5m actually jealous of their plans. Forgetting about the hard work for the moment,their futures are more or less decided: a degree,training and then work. In ten years,they’ll all have respectable careers.
But what about me? Well,tve been writing this blog for a year now and some of you seem to enjoy reading my posts. Perhaps journalism is my “thing”. t5ve already applied to several local newspapers for some work experience and I was able to use this website as useful proof that journalism isn’t just a sudden idea t5ve had. No replies as yet,but I’m hopeful. It’s a competitive industry,I know,so td have to do some more studying first. t5ve been researching relevant courses,though the thought of borrowing thousands to pay for a full degree is depressing. However,
a realistic approach to my future is good progress,I feel.

None of humankind’s battles has proved more lasting—or less successful—than he war on mosquitoes.
Around the world each year, millions of people die of diseases spread by the insect. It’s a familiar list of stubborn plagues(瘟疫)一with some frightening recent additions. The mosquito-borne chikungunya virus has spread to parts of Africa, Europe, Asia, and as of 2013 , he Americas. Its effects, while painful, pale in comparison with those of the Zika virus, which is spreading fast through both North and South America, and leaving severely damaged babies in its wake. We have drained(排空)
polluted pools, warned of he dangers of standing water, and sprayed a river of chemicals to kill mosquitoes. We have put up bed nets and window screens; we have educated and warned. And yet, we’re losing this fight. The mosquito remains the most dangerous non-human animal on Earth and many scientists fear it may become even more widespread and harmful with the rise in global temperatures and international travel.
Our next weapon of choice is DNA. Scientists are working to change mosquitoes,genes. New gene-editing techniques, described in this month’s cover story, make it possible to change the mosquito’s genes so it can’t spread the malaria parasite(疟疾寄生虫).And yet another would change mosquitoes’ genes to prevent the birth of females一the ones that bite— so the diseases will stop spreading and, in time, the insect will die out.
Some may see these techniques as a revolutionary advance against disease that can be passed from one person to another ; others, as a worrying case of scientists playing God. Like many breakthroughs, this one raises deep questions. No matter how harmful a wild species is, can we afford to risk the consequences of changing its genetic code? Or can we afford not to , as malaria alone kills, on average, one child every two minutes in Africa? We invite you to read our cover story with these questions in mind.
32.What may encourage the spread ofmosquitoes?
A.Global warming.
B.The decrease of pools
C.Use of chemicals.
D.The risk of some diseases
33.How do the new techniques work?
A. They can edit a new genetic code.
B. They will remove the poison of mosquitoes.
C. They can stop female mosquitoes giving birth.
D. They can make mosquitoes die out immediately.
34. In what tone does the author write the last paragraph?
A.Pride. B.Regret. C.Concern. D.Confidence.
35. What would be the best title for the text?
A.Mysterious DNA B.An extinct species
C.A new war on mosquitoes D.Mosquitoes around the world

Good study habits will contribute to a successful academic future. Good habits lead to good grades,and good grades lead to admissions to better colleges and universities, possibly with a scholarship thrown in. 36
To succeed,the first thing you need to do is to take responsibility for your actions. You are the only one who can decide your own priorities(优先考虑的事情)and how to use your time and resources. Your actions today will decide what will happen tomorrow and in the near future. Your success rests in your own hands. Do not be influenced by your peers. Be a leader,not a follower. Do not allow your friends to dictate (口授) what is important. 37
Set priorities with your schedule,have a “to-do list” and put the most important project first. Once this is done,continue the second most important project. Crossing off each project as you finish will give you a sense of accomplishment.
38 If you do this,your desire to be a successful student will be stronger with the help of a support group who encourage one another.
39 If you have difficulty understanding a particular concept,re-read it again. If you still cannot understand it,consult with the teacher or professor. You may need to contact a tutor or an academic advisor. Make sure to seek assistance immediately or you may fall behind.
When you put your best effort into your work,you are already a success! 40 This will provide you with a strong feeling of pride and accomplishment,because of
your achievement. Your good grades now will help prepare you and give you confidence for the future. You will have life enhancing tools at your disposal(可自行支配),developed from your attitudes of perseverance, hard work, discipline,
honesty, curiosity,and a desire for excellence. These habits will contribute to a secure and happy future!
A.Hang out with kids who have the same goals as you.
B.Different people work better at different times.
C. Keep friends who lead you towards your goals,not away from them.
D. When you follow these study habits successfully, you will develop a sense of satifaction.

When my father and mother got married,they did not have much money. The situation gets worse when they had children. Once we were very young,my father had
a extra job as a hotel porter. He also mopped the floor of a hotel every night so that he could give us a specially treat or a vacation. At the start of last year,my father began put at least fifty cents every day into a jar on a shelf in his bedroom. We all wondered what he was saving the money,but he refused to tell them. Then,in December, I noticed that the jar was not empty.
