It just shows how badly she wanted off the swimming team.”“Wanted off the swimming team?” said Papa. “She never said anything about that to me.”“Of course she didn’t,” said Mama. “She was afraid you’d blow your top. You already had her getting a swimming scholarship to college and winning gold medals at the Olympics. Can you imagine how much pressure she must have felt? For her, being on the team couldn’t have been much fun.”“Oh, my gosh!” Papa said, clapping a hand to his forehead. “I’ve been so stupid! I just thought she’d want to be a champion swimmer because she’s so good at it.”“It’s like anything else, dear,” said Mama. “No matter how good at it you are, if it stops being fun, you won’t want to do it anymore.”Papa put his head in his hands.“She must be really mad at me,”he mumbled. “Maybe I should say sorry to her.”Sister’s footsteps could be heard on the stairs. She came into the kitchen and looked hopefully up at her parents.“Honey,” said Mama with a smile, “your papa and I have decided that there’s no reason for you to be on the swimming team if you don’t want to.”Sister’s face lit up like a Christmas tree. “Yippee!” she cried.“And,” added Papa, “there’s no need for any more drills. I’m sure you’ll bring your grades back up all by yourself.”Sister ran to Papa and jumped into his arms. She gave him a big hug. “I’m going to go play cards with Lizzy!” she said. “See you later!”From the kitchen window, Mama and Papa watched their daughter run down the sunny road toward Lizzy’s house.“It’s good to see her happy again,” said Mama.“It sure is,” Papa agreed. “As for the swimming team, there’s always next year.”“If?” Mama prompted him.“Oh, right,” said Papa. “If she wants to.”Mama smiled. “At least you’re learning, dear,” she said.

For centuries, people have been looking for a “fountain of youth.” The idea is that if you find a magical fountain, and drink its water, you will not age.Researchers in New York did not find an actual fountain of youth, but they may have found a way to turn back the aging process. It appears that the answer may be called the hypothalamus, which is part of your brain. It controls important body activities, including growth, the way we process food and so on.Researchers at New York’s Albert Einstein College of Medicine found that hypothalamus neural stem cells (干细胞) also influence how fast aging takes place.Dongsheng Cai, a professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, was the leading researcher in a study on aging in mice. He and his team reported their findings.“Aging speed can be controlled by a particular place in the body, which is the hypothalamus. And it can be controlled by a particular type of cells, which are hypothalamus stem cells.” He adds that when the hypothalamus starts aging, so does the body. So when hypothalamus function is in decline, particularly the loss of hypothalamus stem cells, and this protection against the aging development is lost, it eventually leads to aging.Using this information, the researchers began trying to activate the hypothalamus in laboratory mice. They did this by injecting the animals with stem cells.The researchers say the results show that the treatment slowed aging in the animals. “When we injected the hypothalamus stem cells to the middle-aged mice, the mice aged slowly and they can also live longer.”But these results were just from studying mice in a laboratory. If the mice can live longer, does that mean people could have longer lives? The next step is to see if the anti-aging effects also work in human beings.“If we can translate what we have seen in animals to humans, I think humans can function better during later ages.” Cai and his team say their studies may have other benefits. They say the findings could lead to new ways to help doctors identify and treat any number of age-related health issues.32. Why does the author mention the “fountain of youth” in the first paragraph?A. To explain what the “fountain of youth” is.B. To introduce the hypothalamus.C. To show how to find the “fountain of youth”.D. To help people find the “fountain of youth”.33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragr aph 2 refer to?A. The brain.B. The aging process.C. Hypothalamus.D. Thestem cell34. What do we know about the study done by Cai?A. They have found a way to turn back the aging process.B. The brain controls growth, reproduction and the way we process food.C. The decrease of hypothalamus stem cells can lead to aging.D. The finding has been applied to human beings.35. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. The Fountain of YouthB. A New Discovery about AgingC. The Ways of Slowing Down AgingD. Hypothalamus—the Fountain of Youth第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容,从文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

Luckily, she was sent to the hospital in time and saved. After that, she went back to school and began to fight for children and women to receive education.On October 10, 2014, the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Malala. She became the youngest winner in the history of Nobel Prize. However, Malala missed the most important event of being announced to be the winner of the prize. At that moment, she was taking chemistry lessons in the classroom! After hearing the news, Malala chose to take her history and physics lessons as usual. She said calmly to the reporter, “I’m proud of getting this prize. Although the unforgettable date itself means something to me, it’s more important to finish the rest lessons today. After all, it’s a normal school day.”One year later, Amy Mainzer, an astronomical scientist of NASA, found a new planet. She named it “Malala”. When Amy Mainzer was interviewed by Times, she explained, “I think Malala has set an example for us. She is fearless and insists on helping children and women get the right of being educated. Nothing can stop her.”Last year, Malala passed the entrance examination of Oxford University through her hard work. Before she finished her high school, she had written a book I am Malala in 2013. She said, “I hope the readers around the world have chances to read my book. My dream is that more and more people will realize it is very difficult for children and women in some areas to get education. Actually, my story is also the story of 61 million children.Every boy and every girl should have the right to go to school.”31.Malala was sent to hospital because ______________.A.she got a serious diseaseB.she was attacked with a gunC.she was hurt in a traffic accidentD.she fought with others and was hurt32.How old was Malala when she won the Nobel Peace Prize?A.15.B. 16.C. 17.D. 18.33.Why did Malala miss the event of being announced to be the winner of Nobel Prize?A.She was seriously injured and she had no choice but to stay in hospital.B.She was afraid to go because the place was too far away from Pakistan.C.She thought it more important to get education than to attend the award event.D.The lessons were so important that her school didn’t allow her to miss them.34.What is the correct order of the following events according to the passage?a.The Nobel Prize was awarded to Malala.b.Malala wrote a book called I am Malala.c.A planet was named after Malala for her great work.d.Malala became a student of Oxford University in the UK.e.Malala began to be interested in the education for children and women.A.e-a-c-d-bB. e-b-a-c-dC. b-a-c-e-dD. b-a-d-c-e35.Which of the following about Malala is NOT true according to the passage?A.She fights for helping children and women to go to school.B.She is the youngest winner in the history of Nobel Prize.C.She was taking chemistry lessons when she was awarded.D.She wrote a book about readers from all over the world.CEvery year on 15th October, over 200 million people around the world take part in Global Handwashing Day. But why do we have a day for something we do all the time? Well, research shows that not enough people often wash their hands with soap. It is believed that this leads to the deaths of millions of people every year.What’s more, the study from the US Department of Agriculture shows most people failed to wash their hands and rub (擦) with soap for 20 seconds. That’s the amount of time recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which says that washing for shorter periods means fewer germs (细菌) are washed off.The study also states that quite many people didn’t dry their hands with a clean towel or air dryer.Sidibe, a public health officer says soap is the most beautiful invention in public health. Washing your hands with soap can have a huge impact on reducing the spread of diseases. It can also prevent babies from getting ill and keep children healthy.However, washing hands with soap does not happen as often as you might think. For manypeople, handwashing is simply not part of their everyday life. It’s not easy to get people to change habits they learned in early childhood.So what’s the right way to wash hands? There are some tips:Step 1: Wet hands with clean, running water.Step 2: Turn off the tap and apply soap after wetting hands with water.Step 3: Rub hands together with the soap for at least 20 seconds. Be sure to rub the backs of hands, between fingers, and under fingernails.Step 4: Wash hands well under clean, running water.Step 5: Dry hands with a clean towel or air dryer.In 2008 the Indian sports team joined around 100 million Indian schoolchildren in washing their hands with soap on the first ever Global Handwashing Day. Since then, many different events have been held around the world every year.Today, local and national leaders continue to use the day to spread the message about the importance of clean hands. The hope is that handwashing with soap becomes a necessary part of people’s lives and improves the health of millions around the world.36.Why do we have Global Handwashing Day?A.Because some people do not wash hands with clean water.B.Because soap is the most impportant invention in the world.C.Because there is not enough soap in the poorer countries.D.Because washing hands with soap can stop some diseases.37.The underlined word “impact” in Paragraph 4 means ___________.A.effectB. prizeC. surveyD. sense38.Which of the following statements is true according to the report?A.You should use soap directly when your hands are dry.B.The longer hands are washed, the fewer germs are washed off.C.Many people don’t wash their hands with soap and rub for 20 seconds.D.Dirty hands make people feel uncomfortable but won’t cause the death.39.Who started Global Handwashing Day?A.Public health officers.B.

Then he bent down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Surprised, he picked up the coin, turned it around, and looked at it again and again. He then looked around but saw nobody. He put the money into his pocket, and continued to put on the other shoe.

He lived on a farm in the small village with his family. At twelve years old he became completely blind, when he was hit on the head while playing football. Bocelli does his best to ignore his blindness. He says, “Italy's traditions, as well as my parents, have taught me never to accept life's difficulties in a passive （被动的）way, but rather to draw strength （力量）from them.Bocelli showed musical ability early in life. As a young boy, Bocelli showed a great passion for music. His mother has said that music was the only thing that would comfort him. At the ageof six, he started piano lessons, and later, also learned to play the saxophone, guitar and drums and so on. He won his first singing competition when he was twelve. He was discovered in 1992 by the Italian rock star Zucchero. Zucchero wrote a song and he wanted the famous opera singer Pavarotti to record it. But he had to look for a singer to make a demonstration （示范）tape of the song. Bocelli sang for him.

Though there're many kinds of resources, with the fast increase of population and the appearance of many more factories, the more we use, the fewer there will be left for the future. Oil is getting less and less year after year. Though it may be incredible, it's said that oil can last for only 50 years. Natural gas perhaps will last about 38 years.Oil can be used in many ways and it's difficult to imagine what the modern world will be like without oil. But oil isn't easy to find and get out of the earth. Men must study the rocks. When they think the rocks in a certain place may have oil, a metal tower is built. A machine in the tower cuts a hole down into the ground. At the same time, a steel pipe is pushed down to stop the sides from falling in and to keep out water. At last if the men are right, usually the oil rushes up the sides with great force by the pressure of the gas in the top of the rock, and it rushes high into the air. If the oil catches a light, there will be a terrible fire. So a kind of cover is fixed on the top of the pipe, and the oil can run out through taps.If we make a well near the middle of the oil field, we can also get gas. Such gas is sent through pipes to towns far away and used in houses and factories like coal gas.Today oil is under pressure as never before. The price of oil keeps rising all the time. In many countries, the governments encourage people to save oil as much as possible.1、The underline word “incredible” （in Paragraph 1）most probably means “_______”.A. unbelievableB. sureC. importantD. untrue2、In the second paragraph, the word “it” refers to _____.A. gasB. oilC. rockD. water3、Which of the following can be TRUE according to the passage?A.

He asked an assistant to open a large number of bottles andwave the stoppers (瓶塞) under the dog's nose. The assistant did as he asked. Suddenly, Fritz became very lively and barked excitedly, as the assistant waved one stopper under its nose. "I'll take that one." said Simon to the assistant. "The price is high, but it is worth it." he thought."My favorite perfume!" said the delighted girl the next evening when she saw the present. "How did you know?"

Using his experiences, students can learn to make the most of their time and catch every chance to succeed.Indeed, Chow has traveled a long and difficult way to reach his success. In 1955, he was born into a poor family in Hong Kong. His father was a seaman and died when he was little. He had to get up very early to feed the chickens and the pigs and worked in the fields. He described that period of life as "happy though difficult."When he was 17, he had to leave school. He worked in a number of jobs—as a postman, camera, salesman and taxi driver. These experiences paved（铺路）the way for him to play all kinds of roles later in life.Chow broke into the film career in the late 1970s. He was one of the hardworking actors and starred in a number of popular TV plays and films including Shanghai Bund and A Better Tomorrow. Since 1985, he has won many awards including Taiwan's Golden Horse Awardand Hong Kong Film Awards. In 1995, he went to Hollywood. Although he was already over 40, he had to learn English.

Have a look in your fridge, perhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt. You will probably be surprised how far food travels to get to your plate. This journey, "from field to plate" is called "food miles". A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmer's field to the person who buys the food. Nowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the customers. Why is this, and what are the effects（影响）of these long distances?Because of modern technology, food comes from all over the world. We do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy straw berries or tomatoes. They are available in winter if we want. Some countries have to import most of their food. This is because they have difficult climates. The United Arab Emirates（UAE）, for example, gets 85% of its food from other countries. Even food made in the UAE often uses imported materials.What's wrong with "food miles"? Is this not a good way of developing international trade? I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasons. First of all, because food travels such long distances, we need more planes, trucks, and ships to move the food. This means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global warming. In addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tasty. Tomatoes for example, are picked early and stored for their long journeys. For this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the customers. Local food has a better taste, and it also reduces the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food.（1）What is called "food miles" according to this passage?A The home of the food.B The effects of long distances.C The journey from field to plate.D The disadvantages of imported food.（2）The underlined word "available" (in Paragraph 2) most probably means "______".A easy to getB difficult toC willing to talkD impossible to get（3）______ make(s) some countries have to import most of their food.A Long distancesB Difficult climatesC Fresh and tasty foodD Modern technology（4）In the LAST paragraph, the writer encourages readers to______.A buy more local foodB increase international tradeC travel longdistances D use imported materials（5）What is the passage mainly about?A About how local food travels from field to plate.B About what "food miles" is and its effects.C About how some countries import their food.D About where different kinds of food come from.6.Last year, some groups of students in their community made a survey about "How do people spend their free time?" the following diagrams show some results of it:DiagramⅠ: Hours for people of different ages who surf the Internet in a week.Diagram Ⅱ: Different days people go to the library.（library attendance）Diagram Ⅲ: Different sports people like.（1）People aged ______ spend the most time surfing the Internet every week.A 7—16B 17—30C 31—35D over 56（2）How many people go to the library on Saturday?A About 20%.B About 40%.C Over 60%.D More than 80%.（3）The word "attendance" in DiagramⅡ means "______ in the library".A the number of booksB the number of peopleC the hours people spendD the days people spend（4）Which of the following is TRUE according to the diagrams?A The fewest people like playing tennis.B People aged 17—30 like surfing the net most.C People seldom go to the library on weekdays.D The most people like playing basketball.（5）The three diagrams show us the results of a survey about______.A what people do every dayB people's different habitsC people's different lifestylesD how people spend their free time四、阅读填空7.根据短文内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺，内容完整。
