The five-part series, to be broadcast from Thursday July 14 at 8:30 p.m. on ABC TV, also looks at the scientists’ work for the future of mankind.The scientists were a small group of pioneers who explored a world too small to see. What they found there answered some eternal (永久的) questions—What is life? How is it made? Why are children like their parents?DNA is without doubt the most powerful substance(物质) on Earth. The order of its chemicals determines whether a child has her mother’s eyes or her father’s smile. But as DNA shows, until 50 years ago, almost no one knew of its existence. All that changed when two unknown scientists—Jim Watson and Francis Crick—ran into a pub in Cambridge shouting that they’d found the secret of life.The declaration heralded(预示) a momentous discovery, not just for the human race but for the people involved. As this program shows, it was one of the most heated scientific races the world has ever seen.Dr. Watson takes us back 50 years, guiding us through the tumultuous(喧嚣的) events that led to the creation of a double helix (螺旋结构) model being built by Dr. Francis and himself. He tells how he and Crick try hard to find the double helix first and win the Noble Prize.The program shows others involved with the DNA story, including Maurice Wilkins, who helped create the atom bomb. He became disillusioned (使醒悟)with the science of death and chose the science of life instead, by looking for the structure of DNA.51.The purpose in writing this text is to ____________.A. introduce some scientistsB. report on a study on DNAC. tell the importance of DNAD. give a TV program summary52. According to the text, the underlined word “DNA”in the first paragraph refers to _________.A. a five-part TV programB. a story about the scientists’ workC. the most powerful substance on EarthD. the substance discovered by two unknown scientists53. The number of scientists mentioned in this text is _________________.A. 2B. 3C. 4D.554. Which of the following statements does NOT agree with the text?A. DNA explained certain eternal questions involving life.B. Jim Watson and Francis Crick discovered DNA.C. Few scientists showed interest in DNA study.D. Maurice Wilkins also did some study on DNA.( B)Alomada Racraotion and Fork Deportment (ARFD) (510) 747-75292011 TEEN TRIP TOTHE LELAND HIGH SNOW PLAYFOR Teens Currently in 6th to 12th GradesLELAND HIGH SNOW PLAY-Class #8389Friday, December 9, 2011 (Non-Public School Holiday)8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.Cost per person: $ 50 ($60 after January 22, 2012) — Includes: Lunch, Admission and TransportationWith a 4,000 sq. ft. day use lodge, the Leland High Snow Play has a huge supply of tubes to choose from, along with awesome tows(拖车) that will tow you up to thetop of the hill!

No specific purpose in mind, just an opportunity to sit at the kitchen table, have some tea and chat. As I did so, it occurred to me how rare the Sunday visit has become.When I was a kid in the New Jersey of the 1960s, Sunday visits were routine. Most stores were closed and almost nobody worked. My family normally traveled eight city blocks to the home of my grandmother, where adults would sit on the front porch and chat while we children played hide-and-seek. Everything under the sun was useful for conversation. The weather, taxes, the state of the world, food prices, the wild nature of the current crop of children.There are other destinations for our Sunday visits. My great-aunt Hattie, who lived in an apartment above a fruit-and-vegetable store and had a dancing parrot named Peetie; my great-grandparents who lived in an apartment near the Jersey City waterfront and spoke only Polish; and last, my uncle Gene, the only member of our extended family who had managed to accumulate significant material wealth. He has a large and beautifully decorated home on a New Jersey lake. Sunday visit to Uncle Gene meant unlimited swimming, fishing, and hunting---heaven for a city kid.The Sunday visit was something to desire strongly. It was the repetition to church, our reward for an hour of devotion, an opportunity to take advantage of the fact that Dad was not at work, we were not in school, and there were no chores that couldn’t wait until Monday. Sunday was, indeed, different from all the other days of the week, because everyone seemed to be on the same schedule, which means that there was one day when everyone seemed to have time for everyone else.Sunday as a day of rest is, or was, so deeply rooted in the culture that it’s surprising to consider that, in a short span of time, it has almost entirely lost this association. In my childhood, it was assumed that everyone would either be home or visit someone else’s home on Sunday. But now the question is, “What do you plan to DO this Sunday?” The answer can range from going to the mall to participating in a road race or to jetting to Montreal for lunch. If one were to respond, “I’m making a Sunday visit to a family,” such an answer would feel strange, an echo from another era（时代）.I suppose I should be grateful to live in Maine, a state of small towns, abundant land and tight relationships. Even though folks work as hard here as they do anywhere else, the state’s powerfully rural cast (特质) still harbors at least what is left of the ethic of yesterday’s America, where people had to depend on one another in the face of economic vagaries(变幻无常) and a challenging environment.59. The writer’s general impression of the Sunday in the past was a day when __________ .A. everyone would pay a visit to some relatives far awayB. everyone seemed to be free and could have some leisureC. Dad was not at work while Mom was busy helping around the houseD. every adult would go to church and children were not at school60. What can we learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5?A. People nowadays prefer staying at home on Sunday.B. People in the city dislike being disturbed on Sunday.C. Such answers are rarely heard in our modern society.D. Visiting someone on Sunday might take a long time.61. What is the writer’s attitude towards the Sunday today?A. UnsatisfiedB. ConfusedC. RespectfulD. Thankful( D )When I was quite young, my father had one of the first telephones in our neighborhood. I remembered well the polished old case fastened to the wall. The shiny receiver hung on the side of the box. I was too little to reach the telephone, but used to listen with great interest when my mother used to talk to it.Then I discovered that somewhere inside the wonderful device lived an amazing person—her name was Information Please and there was nothing she did not know. Information Please could supply anybody’s number.My first personal experience with Information Please came one day while my mother was visiting a neighbor. I accidentally hit my finger with a hammer. The pain was terrible, but there didn’t seem to be any reason in crying because there was no one at home to give sympathy. I walked around the house sucking my hurting finger, finally arriving at the stairway—the telephone! Climbing up I unhooked the receiver and held it to my ear. “Information Please,”I said.A click or two and a small clear voice spoke into my ear. “Information.”“I hurt my finger…” I cried. The tears came readily enough now that I had an audience. “Isn’t your mother home?” came the question. “Nobody’s home but me.” I sobbed. “Are you bleeding?”“No,” I replied. “I hit my finger with the hammer and it hurts.”“Can you open your icebox?”she asked.I said I could. “Then chip off a little piece of ice and hold it to your finger.”After that I called Information Please for everything. I asked her for help with my geography and she told me where Philadelphia was. And there was the time that Petey, our pet canary(金丝雀) died. I called Information Please and told her the sad story. She listened, and then said the usual things grown-ups say to comfort a child. But I was unconsoled. Why is it that birds should sing so beautifully and bring joy to all families, only to end up as a heap of feathers, feet up on the bottom of a cage?She must have sensed my deep concern, for she said quietly, “Paul, alwaysremember that there are other worlds to sing in.” Somehow I felt better.Another day I was on the telephone. “Information Please.”“Information,”said the now familiar voice. “How do you spell fix?”I asked.All this took place in a small town in the Pacific Northwest. Then when I was 9 years old, we moved to Boston. I missed my friend very much. Information Please belonged in that old wooden box back home, and I somehow never thought of trying the tall, shiny new phone that sat on the hall table.Yet as I grew into my teens, the memories of those childhood conversations never really left me; often in moments of doubt and sadness I would recall the sense of security I had then. I appreciated now how patient, understanding, and kind she was to have spent her time on a little boy.A few years later, on my way west to college, my plane put down in Seattle.I had about half an hour between planes, and I spent 15 minutes or so on the phone with my sister, who lived there now. Then without thinking what I was doing, I dialed my hometown operator and said, “Information Please.”Miraculously, I heard again the small, clear voice I knew so well, “Information.”I hadn’t planned this but I heard myself saying, “Could you tell me please how to spell fix?” There was a long pause. Then came the soft spoken answer, “I guess that your finger must have healed by now.”“I laughed, “So it’s really still you,” I said. “I wonder if you have any idea how much you meant to me during that time.”“I wonder,” she said, “if you know how much your calls meant to me. I never had any children, and I used to look forward to your calls.”I told her how often I had thought of her over the years and I asked if I could call her again when I came back to visit my sister.“Please do; just ask for Sally.”Just three months later I was back in Seattle…A different voice answered Information and I asked for Sally.“Are you a friend?”“Yes, a very old friend.”“Then I’m sorry to tell you. Sally has been working part-time the last few years because she was sick. She passed away five weeks ago.” But before I could hang up she said, “Wait a minute. Did you say your name was Paul?”“Yes.”“Well, Sally left a message for you. She wrote it down. Here it is. I’ll read it. ‘Tell him I still say there are other worlds to sing in. He’ll know what I mean.’”I thanked her and hung up. I did know what Sally meant.62.

2022-2023学年浙江省杭州市西湖区学军中学高二（上）期末英语试卷ACopenhagen has GREAT public transport.It is reliable，safe，and easily accessible.Of course，like everything in Copenhagen，it is not cheap.The system can be a little confusing，even for locals，but we're here to help simplify it all for you!And today our focus is Travelling with a Bike.BIKES ON THE TRAINBicycles can be taken on s-tog lines for free but you can't take bikes through Nørreport station during peak hours.To take your bike on a train，you need to put it on the first or last carriage，clearly marked with large signs of bicycles on the outside.To take a bike on a regional train，which takes you to parts of Denmark outside Copenhagen，you must buy an extra ticket.The price depends on the distance and varies from 16 kr to 28 kr.BIKES ON THE METROBicycles can be taken on the metro for an extra 13 kr.You need to pay for the bike with its own ticket.You can't take your bike on the metro during peak hours.BIKES ON THE BUSYou can bring a bike on a bus but each bus is limited to two bikes，even if there is much space.Generally，people do not travel with their bikes on buses in Copenhagen.BIKES ON THE FERRY（渡轮）Charges for bicycles depend on the company and the destination.You will need to check with the ferry companies.When you book the ticket，you must state that you have a cycle，even if it's free of charge.1.

It's against the local custom.C. Availability is not guaranteed.D. It's not welcomed by other passengers.BWhenever I ask to go to the movies，my mom's first response is always "No!" When I want to go dancing，she adds a firm "No!No!No!" for emphasis.She claims she is only trying to protect me from what she calls "bad elements".On a sunny day，Mom rejected my request to go to West Indian Day Parade and insisted I accompany her as she worked cleaning a large house.I followed her to a grand dining room，watching her applylemon-scented polish to the furniture.I imagined my friends dressing up in fancy costumes，enjoying the celebratory time at the parade.I glared at my mother，hoping she could feel the anger I was directing her way.But as I watched，my emotions began to change.I noticed how tenderly she rubbed her dusting cloth along a large piano in the corner. "Is this like your piano in Guyana，Mom？" I asked. "Yes.This baby grand piano is exactly like the one my Dad bought me when I was your age." Her sigh was full of longing.I knew that my mother had been a talented pianist.I vaguely recalled dancing under the piano when she practiced for hours every day.Now she could barely play for our church choir because her fingers were from so many days spent cleaning other people's homes."Stop!" Mrs.Smithers，the homeowner，yelled，"That's a very valuable instrument!""I am well aware of that." she said slowly，"I play for my church.""But that's not a church-music piano.We play classical music on that piano."I watched as my mother's eyes narrowed and her face tightened.I felt the same tightening in my chest. "You don't know anything about us …or pianos!" I screamed.Immediately I worried I had done something wrong，but I also felt the tightening in my chest loosened.I waited for my mother to blame me，but instead she glanced my way，smiling proudly. "That's all I have time for today.My daughter and I are going to the e on，love.""But Veronica，you will return next week，right？""No!" said my mother，"No!No!No!"4.

What do you know about the mother according to the article？______A. She regretted being a cleaning woman.B. She quit her hobby to support the family.C. She refused the daughter's request due to the tight budget.D. She wished her daughter to become a well-respected pianist.6. How did the writer's attitude toward her mother change on the day？______A. From critical to ashamed.B. From fearful to respectful.C. From pitiful to understanding.D. From angry to sympathetic.7. What does the story mainly want to express？______A. Don't look down upon those inferior to you.B. Reaching out for those in trouble can be rewarding.C. Understanding others' experiences helps identify with them.D. Don't abandon your idea even if one shows strong disagreement.CWorkers，and possibly all people，can be divided into two groups.Those who like to be involved in everything and can be labeled "FOMOs" because they suffer from a "fear of missing out".Then there are those who would simply want to be left to get on with their own particular work，without distraction—the "JOMOs" （joy of missing out）.If the boss announces a new project，do you immediately volunteer，thinking this will be a great chance to prove your skills？If so，you are a FOMO.Or do you foresee the trouble involved，the likely failure of the project，and the weekend emails from all the FOMOs wanting to spend less time with their families？Then you are a certified JOMO.Another test is technology.FOMOs are early users，picking up the latest devices and sending documents to colleagues through the latest file-sharing programme.JOMOs tend to believe that any technology upgrade will be troublesome in the beginning and wonder why on earth their colleagues can't send the document everyone has been familiar with.Networking events are the kind of thing that gets FOMOs excited as a chance to exchange ideas and make contacts.When JOMOs hear the word "networking"，they reach for their noise-cancelling earphones.For them，being made to attend an industry cocktail party is rather like being forced to attend the wedding of someone they hardly know---a social suffering.Similarly，when it comes to business travel，FOMOs can't wait to experience the delight of overseas conferences and visiting new places.It will all look good on their CV.JOMOs know that such travel involves lots of discomforts like crowded airline seats.The final destination turns out to be nothing more than a common conference centre or hotel that they forget five minutes after they have left.While they recognize that they have to attend some meetings and go on trips to get their work done，JOMOs regard such things as a self-punishment instead of a privilege.Something useful may come out of it，but best not to get their hopes up.It might seem obvious that employers should look to hire FOMOs，not their opposites.After all，in a company full of JOMOs，sales might suffer and there would be little innovation.But while FOMOs are racing from meeting to networking events，employers need a few JOMOs to be doing actual work.The other reason why depending on FOMOs is dangerous is that they are naturally restless.JOMOs will be loyal，for fear of ending up with a worse employer.But FOMOs may think that working for one company means they are missing out on better conditions at another.That is the point of most networking，after all.8. Which of the following best describe FOMOs？______A. Excited about the networking events.B. Finding it annoyed to use latest devices.C. Hesitating to get involved in a new project.D. Showing no interest in building up social relationship.9. When it comes to business travel，what do JOMOs tend to do？______A. Enjoy the conferences and the overseas tripB. Believe it will enrich their working experienceC. Finish their work without too much expectationsD. Complain about something uncomfortable during the trip.10. According to the author，why is it dangerous to depend on FOMOs？______A. They don't do any actual work at all.B. They usually end up with a worse employer.C.
