Jack Andraka was 15 when he came up with an idea for a new way to test for
pancreatic (胰腺) cancer. When Andraka was 14, a family friend died of the disease,
and this affected him deeply. This kind of cancer is particularly serious because there is
no test you can have done to find it in the early stages. By the time standard tests
determine you have the disease, it is often too late. Realizing that this was the case,
Andraka decided to try to develop a test that might catch problems at the earliest stages.
The road ahead looked difficult for Andraka. He was still a high school student, and
he wanted to create something that no one else had done. But Andraka read endlessly
about the disease, wrote a proposal for his idea, and sent it out to 200 cancer
researchers.Only one professor, Dr.Anirban Maitra, responded positively. Dr. Maitra
agreed to work with Andraka on his idea, giving him guidance and access to a
laboratory.
The next big reward for Andraka's perseverance was winning the grand prize at the
Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. This great award is given to young
innovators who have developed a world-changing idea. Developing the test is likely to
take many years, but Andraka hopes the test will eventually improve people's lives and
maybe save them.
Jack Andraka is not alone as a young innovator. After all, there were 1, 499 other
contestants for the Intel award, and all of them had ground-breaking ideas. For Andraka,
having a family that loves science and encourages creative thinking gave him an
advantage. But the key for Andraka is that reading, research, and discovery are just
plain fun, and the chance to improve the world around him in the process makes it even
better.
24. Why did Andraka decide to develop a test for pancreatic cancer?
A. His friend's encouragement.
B. An upsetting experience.
C. His extensive reading.
D. An important test.
25. What difficulty did Andraka meet at the beginning of his research?
A. Lack of positive replies from experts.
B. Heavy pressure from his schoolwork.
C. Little access to research equipment.
D. Great need of money to develop a test.
26. Which of the following leads to Andraka's award winning?
A. The competition with other contestants.
B. His determination to improve the world.
C. The support from his family.
D. His passion for discovery.
27. What can we learn from Andraka's story?
A. Practice makes perfect.
B. Hard work leads to success.
C. One good turn deserves another.
D. Failure is the mother of success.
C
Anyone wanting to help the poor may like this idea-recycling aluminum cans in a
different way, which is apparently also good for the environment. So you're actually
killing two birds with one stone. It goes without saying that recycling aluminum cans
can save resources, energy, time and money. People usually save and place aluminum
cans in the dustbins, which are then collected and taken away by cleaners, who will
finally recycle them in the recycling center. But if you save the aluminum cans, and skip
the cleaners, you can save these same cans for something more important-helping the
poor. In other words, by doing less, you are giving the environmental cause some new
significance.
Here is how to put this idea into action. Take your aluminum cans and place them in
a plastic bag. For the dirty ones, rinse them out first. Store the bag of clean aluminum
cans. Once you collect about one hundred cans or more, take the cans to the recycle
center yourself. There are about eighteen aluminum cans in a pound. And you can
receive three to four dollars for one hundred cans. Donate your three to four dollars to
the poor or any charity organization of your choice.
By now, you may wonder if your few dollars have really made a difference to the
poor. Consider this: Is there any individual or any specific event that is great enough to
change the world or decide the direction that history takes? The answer is probably no.
What if there were a lot of people who would do the same thing? History shows nothing
but the collective will of the whole community. And that will surely be powerful
enough to make a bigger difference.
Go to your community or your school and spread your idea. Share your idea and
save your aluminum cans with other people. One hundred people can speak louder than
one. And the money you make by saving cans can be multiplied by one hundred times.
And if more people join in the cause around the world, an even larger difference can be
made, and more people in need will enjoy the benefits.
28. What's special about the new idea?
A. It makes profits.
B. It saves resources.
C. It benefits the poor.
D. It involves cleaners.
29. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. Dirty cans do not sell well.
B. You decide who receives the money.
C. A hundred cans weigh about 3 pounds.
D. The recycle center is conveniently located.
30. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 probably refer to?
A. A great individual or event.
B. The direction history takes.
C. The collective will of people.
D. The neighbourhood you live in.
31. Which of the following does the writer want to tell us?
A. Many hands make light work.
B. Kill two birds with one stone.
C. Don't put the cart before the horse.
D. No man can do two things at once.
D
China's historic 23-day Chang'e 5 mission has not only obtained precious rock and
soil samples from the moon, but has also brought back a group of seeds that traveled the
furthest in the nation's agricultural and forestry histories. More than 30 kinds of seeds,
including that of rice, oats etc., were placed inside the multi-module Chang'e 5
spacecraft and orbited around the moon for about 15 days.
Scientists wished to check what would happen to the seeds after being exposed to
extraterrestrial (地外的) forces in lunar orbit and also hoped that they could develop
beneficial mutations ( 突 变 ). This mission offered good opportunities to scientists,
which enabled them to deepen their studies on the effect of cosmic rays on the growth
and evolution of life on Earth.
Space-based mutation breeding refers to the process of exposing seeds to forces
such as microgravity, vacuums and cosmic radiation during a spaceflight and then
sending them back to Earth for further observation and planting. Researchers observe
and examine several generations of plants grown from space-bred seeds and investigate
their mutations-some are positive and desirable while others are negative. Those with
positive mutations will be kept and analyzed, and will be introduced to farmers after
their certification and approval.
Space breeding can generate mutations faster and more conveniently than ground-
based experiments and can bring about some desirable traits that are otherwise hard to
introduce. Compared with natural or conventionally bred types of plants,
space-developed versions with positive mutations usually feature higher nutritional
content, greater annual yields, shorter growth periods and better resistance to diseases
and insect pests.
China conducted its first space breeding experiment in 1987, using a satellite to
carry seeds into space. Since then, hundreds of kinds of seeds and seedlings have
traveled with dozens of Chinese spaceships. Space breeding has helped to produce more
than 200 new types of mutated plants in China that have been approved for large-scale
cultivation, ranging from grains to vegetables and fruits. The Chang'e 5 robotic mission
returned 1, 731 grams of lunar rock and soil to Earth, marking a historic
accomplishment 44 years after the last lunar substances were taken back.
32. Why were the seeds placed inside Chang'e 5?
A. To pick out the fittest for mutations.
B. To understand extraterrestrial forces.
C. To study the intensity of cosmic rays.
D. To expose them to a special environment.
33. What do we know about space-based mutation breeding?
A. It is not a time-consuming process.
B. Mutations develop in a random way.
C. It often brings about desirable effects.
D. Approval will be granted to mutated plants.
34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. It is a custom to put seedlings on a spacecraft.
B. China was the first to do a space breeding experiment.
C. It is some time since seeds were last taken into space.
D. Space breeding has brought us commercial benefits.
35. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Space-bred Seeds Offer Great Chances
B. Chang’e 5 Returns with a Big Package
C. Plant Mutations Result in a Better Life
D. Seeds from Space Mark a New History

Do you want to know how to learn from failures? Your journey starts this second. It
takes courage for people to realize that they help on how to learn from failures. These
following steps will assist you in learning from your mistakes and move on with your
life.
36 A little bit of humility goes a long way. You know you did something wrong; and
while you want to defend your mistakes, you had better keep your emotions in check.
Accept that your plans don't go as well as you want and apologize to those who are
under influence.
Humility is the first step to mend broken ties and relationships. 37 Who you were
before, or whatever your status might have been-those are no longer significant. This is
not the time for you to start another war, but the time for you to reflect on what you
have done.
Observe and report. If you want to learn from failures, then you need to stay quiet
and start listening to other people. 38 You might not have noticed these things before.
Now that you're given the opportunity to observe them, you might be able to pick up a
thing or two. This is your chance to learn how you can help straighten things out.
Make things right. It's not the most pleasant task to do, especially when you're
cleaning up your mess. But making things right is extremely important to your
redemption (补救). If you’re not yet certain of what you can do, ask. 39 Instead, you
can start by helping out in little ways. Getting coffee for those who are under the
influence, for example, is one way you can choose.
Knowing how to learn from your failures is very important. 40
A. Humility helps.
B. Control your feelings.
C. This is the only way you can grow as a person.
D. Watch how your friends and colleagues are handling matters.
E. Ignore other people who are talking about you behind your back.
F. People will be more than happy to help if you show up with a smile.
G. You don't have to come up with one solution that will take care of everything.

阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的
短文。
On a freezing morning of December, two police officers were patrolling the streets.
Suddenly, the walkie-talkie (对讲机) on Alan, one of the officers, rang. “The cake shop
near the City Museum has reported a burglary ( 窃 案 ).Please rush to the scene
immediately” , said the electronic voice.
The two policemen quickly arrived at the shop, only to find that the scene showed no
sign of crimes at all. Curiously, they checked the monitor and found that a thin woman
broke open the window and climbed into the store at 5: 20 a. m. Instead of searching
around, she walked straight into the storage room, stole cheese, chocolate, butter and
other ingredients for a cake, and then ran away down the road.
Both policemen felt quite confused about her behavior. One of the shop assistants
identified the thief as Clara, a single mother who lived nearby. She has an eight-year-old
boy to take care of and lives in poverty.
Moments later, the two officers arrived at Clara's house. Bob, another officer, pulled
out a gun and was about to break in. But Alan told him to put the gun away and knocked
gently.
The door opened and out came a very thin woman. From the outline of her figure,
Alan recognized that she was exactly the thief. The woman, Clara, immediately
understood the situation when she saw the two policemen. She buried her face in her
hands and sat down on the floor.
At that very moment, a child's voice broke the silence, “Mom, is anyone coming for
my birthday? Invite them in, please.”
After hearing the boy's words, Clara stood up and begged in a low voice, “Officer, I
did steal those things, but there's nothing else I could do. Iťs my baby's birthday, and
I've got neither job nor money. Please don't take those things away. I've just used them
to make him a cake.”

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Looking into the woman's teary eyes, Alan understood and walked into the house.

In order to find out how different students think about our century-old library will
be dismantled and a modern network learning center will be built on the same spot, a
seminar, whose topic is “Time for a Change?”, will be held by the debate club in the
school lecture hall next Tuesday.
The seminar will last from 5 p. m. to 7 p. m. To begin with, you are supposed to
arrive on time. What’s more, you ought to think ahead about what questions you will
pose in the seminar. Finally, white school uniforms are also needed to show your
identity.
We firmly believe that you will have a great time if you come here.
The Debate Club
One possible version:
Looking into the woman's teary eyes, Alan understood and walked into the house.
He looked at the child and said,” Happy birthday to you, kid. And enjoy your cake.
“After that, he walked out, dragging Bob with him.” Officer, that woman should be
taken to the police station. She should be responsible for her crime.” Alan replied,”
What you said is absolutely correct, but I can never take away a child's birthday cake.
Although what Clara did was wrong indeed, she was just a helpless mother. It would be
too cruel for us to take away a desperate mother who occasionally made a mistake in
front of her child!”(96 words)
Bob nodded thoughtfully and asked,” What about the things she stole?” “The bill is
on me,” Alan volunteered. After returning to the cake shop, he explained the incident to
the shop owner and then paid for the stolen materials. Afterwards, Clara took the
initiative to go to the police station, asking for her punishment. What the officer had
done made her feel ashamed of her theft and she was determined to mend her way. She
said that she would improve her life by her own efforts and would no longer do
anything illegal again. (83 words)
