were open. And I really was unimpressed by the food.

When Sally Millsopp, 53, with her 17-year-old daughter, Eleanor, participated in Race for Life
in 2019. She had no idea if she would get to see her mother Jennifer Earnshaw again, who was
desperately ill with a form of lung cancer, but she encouraged the pair to take part in the event as she
knew the fundraising would help others.
They managed to make it back to her bedside just in time to show her the photographs. Jennifer,
who was a former bead teacher, passed away the following day, aged 76.
Ms Millsopp and her daughter are once again participating in the Race for Life on May 13 this
year to the memory of Jennifer, and will be speaking on stage to inspire others.
"Mum was a selfless person. I knew she really wanted us to do Race for Life but it was hard not
knowing if I would be there with her at the end. When we reached the finish line, Eleanor and I both
felt elated that we'd done something so positive at such a sad time. We had a big hug and knew it
was something Mum would be proud of," said Ms Millsopp.
One in two people in the UK will be diagnosed with cancer, but the good news is more people are surviving the disease now than ever before. Cancer Research UK's Race for Life, in partnership
with Tesco, is an inspiring women--only series of 5k, 10k, Pretty Muddy and 1-liking events which
raise millions of pounds every year to help beat cancer sooner by funding vital research.
Gemma Turpin, Cancer Research UK's Norwich event manager, said, "We are very grateful to
Sally and Eleanor for their story that highlights how special Race for Life is to people. By following
them women in Norfolk can make a real difference in the tight against cancer. Money raised through
Race for Life is helping beat over200 different types of cancer-that's why every step, every person
and every penny raised counts.

In 2019. more than 125,000 organs, mostly kidneys, were transplanted(移植)from one human
being to another in the United States. But a lack of suitable donors means the supply of organs is
limited. That has led researchers to study the question of how to build organs from the very
beginning.
One promising approach is to print them. Bio-printing originated in the early 2000s, when it
was discovered that living cells could be sprayed through the nozzles(喷嘴)of printers without being
damaged.Sichuan Revotek, a biotechnology company based in Chengdu, China, has successfully
transplanted a printed section of artery( 动 脉 )into a monkey. This is the first step in trials of a
technique intended for use in humans. Similarly, Organovo, a firm in San Diego, California,
announced that it had transplanted printed human-liver tissue into mice and that this tissue had
survived and worked.
Bio-printing can help with the development of other treatments. Organovo already offers its
printed kidney and liver tissue for use in testing new drugs for effectiveness and safety. That should
please animal rights activists, as such tests cut down on the number of animal trials. It should please
drug companies, too--because the tissue being tested is human, the results obtained should be more
reliable than those from tests on other species. With similar purpose in mind, L'Oreal, a French
cosmetics firm, together with its team, is working on printing human skin. They intend to use it to
test their products for side effects. Compared with older and slower technology, bio-printing will
permit L'Oreal to grow much more, and also allow different skin types to be printed.
The real prize of all this effort would be to print entire organs. For kidneys, Roots Analysis, a
medical-technology consulting company, thinks that should be possible in about six years. Livers,
which have a natural tendency to grow again, should also arrive a little bit soon. Hearts, with their
complex inner shape, will take longer.
28. Why do people start to consider printing organs?
A. Because of poor quality of the organs. B. Because of shortage of donors.
C. Because of lack of research. D. Because of limited technology.
29. How does Revotek develop bio-printing technology?
A. By testing bio-printed organs on patients.
B. By developing liver tissue into a monkey.
C. By transplanting a section of artery into mice.
D. By transplanting a bio-printed organ into an animal.
30. What can be inferred from paragraph 4?
A. Animal rights activists hate bio-printing.
B. Entire printed organs will be available soon.
C. Bio-printing could be well received in society.
D. L'Oreal prints human skin to improve the bio-technology.31. What does the passage want to tell us?
A. Organ transplantation is difficult to achieve
B. Medical progress improves people's life quality.
C. Bio-printing tech contributes to building organs.
D. Many countries are cooperating to develop bio-printing.
D
Worried about the loss of rainforests and the ozone layer(臭氧层)? Well, neither of those is
doing any worse than a large majority of the 6,000 to 7,000 languages that remain in use on Earth.
One half of the survivors will almost certainly be gone by 2050, while 40% more will probably be
well on their way out. In their place, almost all humans will speak a small number of
languages-Mandarin, English, Spanish.
Linguists(语言学家)know what causes languages to disappear, but what's less often remarked
is what happens on the way to disappearance: languages' vocabularies, grammars and expressive
potential all disappear. "Say a community goes over from speaking a traditional Aboriginal(土著
的 )language to speaking a Creole," says Australian Nick Evans, a language experts, "you leave
behind a language where there's very fine vocabulary for the landscape. All that is gone in a Creole.
As speakers become less able to express the wealth of knowledge that has filled ancestors' lives with
meaning over thousands of years, it's no wonder that communities tend to become weakened."
Due to the huge losses, some linguists struggle against the situation. In England, Peter Austin
heads a programme that has trained many documentary linguists in England as well as in
language-loss hotspots such as West Africa and South America.
However, not all approaches to the preservation of languages will be particularly helpful. Some
linguists are boasting( 自 夸 ), for example, of more and more complicated means of recording
languages: digital recording and storage, the Internet and mobile phone technologies. But these are
encouraging the quick style of recording trip: fly in, switch on digital recorder, fly home, download
to hard drive, and store gathered material for future research. That's not quite what some
endangered-language experts have been seeking. Most vocal (直言不讳的)and untiring has been
Michael Krauss from the University of Alaska. He has often complained that linguists are playing
with technology research while most of their raw data is disappearing.
Who is to blame? Linguists who go out into communities to study, document and describe languages, argue that theoretical linguists, like Noam Chomsky, who draw conclusions about how
languages Work, have had so much influence that linguistics has largely ignored the continuing
disappearance of languages.
32. Why does the author mention rainforests and the ozone layer in Paragraph 1?
A. To explain they are of great importance.
B. To prove they have connection with language loss.
C. To show anxiety about environmental issues is unfounded.
D. To stress the public should be equally concerned about languages.
33. What does Nick Evans say about Creole speakers?
A. They can't express ideas which are part of their culture.
B. Getting practical information causes problems for them.
C. They have more potential to learn languages than most people
D. Older and younger members of the community can't communicate.
34. What has Michael Krauss pointed out?
A. Linguists' popularity has decreased considerably.
B. Linguists are failing to record languages before they die out.
C. Linguists have made poor use of improvements in technology.
D. Linguists' quick style of recording trip should be encouraged.
35. What can be concluded from the text?
A. By 2050 different languages will be developing well.
B. Local languages are preserved perfectly in West Africa.
C. Theoretical linguists may be to blame for the loss of languages.
D. Noam Chomsky is fond of working in communities to research.

选项。
In addition to being an important driver of personal health, optimism has been thought as one of
the most important qualities of an innovative(创新的)leader. 36
Leaders who are too optimistic can actually reduce their team's morale(斗志)and productivity.
This is because too much optimism comes across as blind to the challenges that a team may face along the course of a project. 37
One way is to focus on the challenges that lie ahead for your team. When leaders talk about the
reasons why an approach might not work, someone on their team is more likely to jump in and insist
on why the team will succeed. It s a bit like reverse psychology(逆反心理).
38 Ask questions such as, "What problems do you see that I may be missing? Are there
reasons we shouldn't go on? And where might our assumptions be wrong?"
Through this line of questioning, you as the leader acknowledge that there may be challenges
while also showing your confidence in your team to overcome them.
39 But at the same time, employees want their managers to recognize the barriers they
overcome in order to help the team succeed.
The next time you want to encourage your team, express your confidence in their abilities while
acknowledging that there may he struggles along the way. That's right. 40 Leaders who see the
glass as too full actually reduce the success of their teams.
A. With it, we can achieve anything.
B. There's a pessimistic view, however.
C. To be a good leader, you need to be less optimistic.
D. Another way is for leaders to be more skillful in asking questions.
E. Nowhere is optimism more important than in leading organizations.
F. The following are ways for leaders to avoid coming across as too optimistic.
G. Nobody wants to wont with a person who frequently adds bad news and negative feelings to a
gathering.

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
When you say that someone has a good memory, what do you mean? Are you saying the person
has fast recall or that she or he absorbs information quickly? Or maybe you just mean that the person
remembers a lot about the childhood. The 61 (true)is that it is difficult to say exactly what
memory is. Scientists believe that a memory is made up of bits and pieces of information 62
(store) all over the brain. Perhaps the best way to describe memory is to say that it is a process 63
recording, storing and retrieving(提取)information. It is this process 64 allows us to keep
memories of past events and facts.
In order for information to be remembered, it must be recorded in the brain. And 65
(record)something in brain, you have to notice it or register it, using 66 or more of your five
senses--sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. Through practice and repetition the pieces that make
up your memory of that information 67 (strengthen).
Memory can be 68 (negative) affected by a number of things. Poor nutrition and
depression can affect the ability to keep information. Over-drinking alcohol can also lead to 69
(damage)the brain over the long term. A vision or hearing impairment(损伤)may affect the ability to
notice certain things, thus making 70 harder to record information.
