The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation[BMGF] said this week it will provide up to $100 million
to support action against the 2019 novel coronavirus. It says the money will help strengthen efforts
to test people for the virus, separate healthy individuals from the sick and find treatment for them.
Controlling the epidemic: The donation will help speed development of the “tools to bring this
epidemic under control,” the chief executive officer of the Gates Foundation; Mark Suzman said.
Worldwide emergency: The Gates Foundation is giving money and working with other donors
to help the World Health Organization (WHO), Chinese medical workers and others worldwide. It
noted the need for an organized international effort to fight the virus.
Increased efforts to find and treat the coronavirus: The foundation promised $20 million right
away to hurry the process of identifying those who are sick, keeping them separate, and helping
them get better. The goal is to stop the disease from spreading to more people and places. Money is
also going to public health officials in China and other countries with coronavirus patients to help
them pay the start-up cost of medical workers and supplies.
Protecting at-risk groups in Africa and South Asia: Recent epidemics, such as the H1N1
influenza pandemic of 2009, have had a big effect on people living in extreme poverty. Most of
those people live in African countries south of the Sahara Desert or parts of South Asia. Another $20
million is going to public health officials in these areas to improve their emergency operations and to
treat confirmed cases. One partner is the African Field Epidemiology Network, a non-profit service
that currently operates in more than 30 African countries.
Developing Vaccines: Of the total donation, $60 million will go to speed the process of making
vaccines to protect against the novel coronavirus. One organization working on developing the
anti-coronavirus vaccines is the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations with Chinese
public- and private-sector researchers; trying to find ways to stop the spread of the virus.

After spending a year in Brazil on a student exchange program, her mother recalled, Marie
Colvin returned home to find that her classmates had narrowed down their college choices.
“Everyone else was already admitted to college,” her mother, Rosemarie Colvin, said from the
family home. “So she took our car and drove up to Yale and said , ‘You have to let me in .’ ”
“ Impressed--she was a National Merit ( 英 才 ) finalist who had picked up Portuguese in
Brazil—Yale did, admitting her to the class of 1978, where she started writing for the Yale Daily
News and decided to be a journalist,” her mother said.
On Wednesday, Marie Colvin, 56, an experienced journalist for The Sunday Times of London,
was killed as Syrian forces shelled( 炮击) the city of Homs. She was working in a temporary media
center that was destroyed in the attack.
“She was supposed to leave Syria on Wednesday”, Mrs. Colvin said. “Her editor told me he
called her yesterday and said it was getting too dangerous and they wanted to take her out. She said
she was doing a story and she wanted to finish it.”
Mrs. Colvin said it was pointless to try to prevent her daughter from going to conflict zones. “If
you knew my daughter,” she said, “it would have been such a waste of words. She was determined,
she was enthusiastic about what she did, and it was her life. There was no saying ‘Don’t do this.’
This is who she was, absolutely who she was and what she believed in: cover the story, not just have
pictures of it, but bring it to life in the deepest way you could.” “So it was not a surprise when she
took an interest in journalism,” her mother said.
24.From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1, we can infer that .
A.Yale was her last choice
B.Marie Colvin was good at persuading
C.Yale must keep its promise to Marie Colvin
D.Marie Colvin was confident of herself
25.Which of the following is the correct order to describe Marie Colvin’s life ?
a. She was doing a story in Syria and got killed. b. She was admitted to Yale University.
c. She studied in Brazil as an excellent student.
d. She was hired by The Sunday Times of London. e. She began to take an interest in
journalism.
A.d→e→c→a→bB.c→b→e→d→a
C.e→d→c→b→aD.b→c→d→e→a
26.From the last paragraph, we can know that Mrs. Colvin .
A.dislikes the choice of her daughter.
B.knows her daughter very well.
C.cares little about her daughter.
D.doesn’t fully appreciate her daughter.
27.What can be the best title of the text ?

C.Choosing Lifelong Careers Based on Your Own Interest.
D.Covering Stories in a Dangerous Conflict Area.

The end of the school year is in sight - Christmas cards, candy canes and of course, end of year
reports.
While most parents welcome an assessment of their kids' performance, they do not expect their
own input to be evaluated. But a school in the UK is changing that. As well as assessing their
students, they are dishing out grades to mums and dads. Parents that are really involved in their kids'
education are rewarded with an A, and parents that haven't done their bit get a disappointing D.
The school, Greasley Beauvale Primary in Nottinghamshire, uses standard such as whether
mums and dads have attended school events such as plays and parent teacher evenings to decide on
the grade. The school's principal, Donna Chambers, said that the scheme had been well received.
"There were some critics. In spite of it, between 15 percent and 20 percent of parents started out
in the lower categories but now that has been reduced to just two per cent," she explained.
Chambers hopes that the scheme will help motivate parental involvement. "The system is
important because you have got to get the parents on board from day one. That one hour initial
conversation saying they could improve will make a difference to the rest of that child's academic
life", she said.
But while the scheme may be well intentioned, it is likely to be connected with parent shaming.
There are lots of reasons why some mums and dads might not be involved in school activities such
as work commitments, looking after younger children or caring for elderly relatives.
And of course, being involved in your kid's education doesn't begin and end at school. There is
a lot that goes on behind the scenes from helping with homework to keeping uniforms freshly
laundered. And what about all the parents who stayed up sewing special costumes at the last minute?
Surely that earns a gold star instead of a grade!
28.What do schools usually do at the end of the school year? ______
A.Dividing candies.
B.Making Christmas cards.
C.Evaluating kids' performances.
D.Grading parents.
29.What does the school's principal Chambers say about the scheme? ______
A.It uses a new way to evaluate kids.
B.It gives parents further education.
C.It has gained much acceptance.
D.It improves kids' motivation for learning.
30.What does the author think of parents being involved in kids' education? ______
A.It means far more than being graded.
B.It brings shame to parents.
C.It adds to parents' burden.
D.It increases parents' commitment to education.
31.What is the passage mainly about? ______
A.There is too much stress for parents about their children's academic life.
B.Parents as well as their children are on the list of the year school report.
C.Parents should be involved in children's school life.
D.Whether a parent is excellent depends on the grade he gets.
D
Sleep is essential for a person’s wellbeing. Researchers have found that sleep loss increases a
person’s risk of developing serious medical conditions. Now, a new study has found that getting
enough sleep is also the key to improving academic performance.
Jeffrey Grossman, who led the research, was not trying to find the correlation (相关性) between
sleep and grades when he handed out Fitbits to the students in his class. Instead, the professor hoped
the popular wrist-worn electronic device (装置), which tracks a person’s activity 24/7, would show a
connection between physical exercise and academic achievement.
As part of the research, a quarter of the participants chose a fitness class specially created for
the study. After the school term ended, the researchers carefully analysed the data. Much to
Grossman’s surprise, they found no measurable difference in test performance between the group
that had been physically active and the group that had not.
However, the study presented a surprising viewpoint in the journal Science of Learning. Going
through the large amount of data, Grossman noticed an interesting trend (走向) from the participants
sleep patterns. There was a straight-line relationship between the average amount of sleep and
his/her grade on the exams.
Besides, it was not enough for students to just head to bed early the night before a test.
Grossman says: “We’ve heard the phrase ‘Get a good night’s sleep, you’ve got a big day tomorrow.’
It turns out this does not relate at all to test performance. Instead, it’s the sleep you get during the
days when learning is happening that matters most.”
The time students went to bed each night was similarly important. Those who went to bed in the
early hours of the morning performed poorly, even if the total sleep time was the same as a
higher-performing student.
The research does not prove that sleep is the only component that helps improve academic
performance. However, Grossman says the results are a strong indication that sleep really matters.
Who knew getting A’s just required some extra ZZZ’s?
32.What’s Grossman’s original purpose by using Fitbits in the research?
A.To improve students sleep patterns.
B.To find effects of physical exercise on grades.
C.To monitor students’ physical condition.
D.To regulate students’ daily behavior.
33.What did Grossman think of the research result?
A.It was unreliable. B.It was changeable
C.It was unexpected. D.It was fruitless.
34.What plays a more important part in test performance?
A.Average amount of sleep during tests. B.Sleep in the learning stage.
C.Sleep quality the night before the test. D.A regular bedtime.
35.What is the best title for the text?
A.Enough Sleep Benefits Our Wellbeing
B.Be Physically Active and Sleep More
C.Catch ZZZ’s for Good Test Performance
D.The More Exercise, the Better Schoolwork

Many of us are hardwired NOT to ask for help. We think it makes us appear weak. We think
people will say no. we think we have to do everything ourselves. 36 . We have to get over that,
and there’s how:
Get over yourself
No one—and I mean NO ONE----got anywhere alone. You cannot and should not do
everything yourself. You are not, in fact, always the best person for the job, or the “only” person
who can do it. Asking for help is sign of strength, not weakness. Asking for help clears space for you
and frees your time and energy. 37
Rebuild your thinking
Rebuild what it means to ask for help from “I am a weak, incompetent loser” to “I am
strategically allocating my time to focus on what matters most.” Don’ t focus on the fact that you
can’t do something or don’ t have the time. 38 It’s a chance to connect, a chance to value a
colleague, a chance to get something done faster or better, a chance to optimize your own time and
talents.
39
Asking for help is about tapping valuable resources to get the best outcome the most quickly
with the fewest resources expended. That’s a fancy way of saying “get the right people for the job.”
40 And the best way to do that is to know your colleagues, and proactively build relationships.
A. Whatever the reason, we don’t ask for the help we need.
B. Think about your colleagues.
C. Your energy can’t be wasted.
D. Instead, think about what you will gain from the ask.
E. It’s all about building the right team.
F. It’s a smart strategy.
G. Know your colleagues.
