AThe cold northern wind here in the streets of Petersburg strengthens my nerves and fills me with delight. I cannot think of the Pole as cold and empty; in my imagination it is a region of beauty and delight. Who knows what strange landscapes and creatures we may find there? I shall satisfy my curiosity with the sight of an unknown part of the world, and walk where no man has before. Thinking of it, I feel the same joy a child feels when he sails his little boat on a voyage of discovery up his native river.This voyage was the favorite dream of my early years. My education was neglected, yet I was passionately fond of reading. Uncle Thomas’s library contained only books about e xploration, which I read day and night. Finally, my thoughts come to the idea of making a voyage of discovery.Six years have passed since I decided on the present voyage. I can, even now, remember the hour when I committed myself to this great enterprise. I began by making my body used to hardship. I went on whale hunting voyages to the North Sea; I voluntarily endured cold, hunger, thirst, and lack of sleep. I often worked harder than the common sailors during the day. Then, at nights, I studied mathematics, the theory of medicine, and sciences of practical importance for a sea-going adventurer. Twice I took jobs as an officer on a Greenland whaling ship. I felt a little proud when my captain asked me to remain with the ship, sovaluable did he consider my services. And now, do I not deserve to achieve some great task? My life might have been passed in ease and comfort, but I preferred glory to every pleasure that wealth placed in my path.21. What does the author think of the Pole? A. It reminds him of his childhood. B. It must be a region full of surprises. C. It would fulfil his dream to be an adventurer. D. It’s too cold a destination with almost nothing. 22. To realize his childhood dream, the author got ________. A. physically prepared by experiencing great suffering B. spiritually prepared by gaining captain’s recognition C. academically prepared by reading books on explorationD. financially prepared by serving on a whale hunting ship23. According to the passage, the author is definitely a person full of ________. A. curiosityB. fancyC. perseveranceD. prideBAs a young child, Ann Makosinski would spend hours experimenting with her toys and other everydayobjects around her to create her own inventions.Now a first-year Arts student, Makosinski is a well-known inventor. She won the recent Sustainable Entrepreneurship Award of Excellence, which recognizes creative business solutions to social problems --the same recognition was given to Barack Obama in 2014. Her two inventions —the Hollow Flashlight and the e-Drink —have been causing excitement internationally since their creation.When Makosinski was 15 years old, she created a flashlight powered by the heat of one's hand. This invention was the result of a 9th grade science project, but her goal was to offer a practical solution to people with unlimited access to power and electricity. “One of my friends from the Philippines told me that she failed school because she had no light to study with at night, so that was kind of the inspiration.” Makosi nski explained.At 12th grade, Makosinski then went on to create the e-Drink. It is a coffee cup that harvests the extra heat of a hot drink while it cools, stores it as electricity in an internal(内置的) battery and makes it available to charge an external device such as a phone, whose life can now be longer by approximately 10 to 30 minutes.“My favorite part of creating inventions would be when you had the idea and you have to physically build it ，and it doesn't work out,” she said. “So you have to figure ou t different ways to solve it. A lot of times,此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号I'll give up and I’ll come back after a couple of days and I'll take it up again.”Her advice to other student innovators? “Start now. There’s nothing holding you back. Actually, you can do whatever you want.” Makosinski said，“If you want to make something，follow your heart, then go ahead. If there's something you really want to do, you will make time for it and you will find time in the day to do your schoolwork.”24. Makosinsky created the powerless flashlight mainly to ________.A. satisfy her desire to create inventionsB. settle problems in study for her friendC. help those who are short of electricityD. finish the assignment of a science project25. Which of the following is mainly explained in paragraph 4?A. How the e-Drink was invented.B. Why the e-Drink was created.C. What the e-Drink brings.D. How the e-Drink works.26. Which can be the best title for this passage?A. Popular Inventions by a Teenager GirlB. Teenager Girl Advancing in CreationC. Valuable Advice from a Creative GirlD. Awards Given to a Young InventorCStress in middle age can make your brain shrink and make your memory worse, scientists have discovered. The brain-reducing effects of stress, identified in people in their 40s free from dementia(痴呆症)—a serious mental disorder caused by brain disease or injury, were found to be caused by cortisol(皮质醇). The high levels of the stress hormone may be an early warning sign that someone may end up with dementia, the research suggests.Stress also made people's thinking skills worse, which the Harvard Medical School study, published in the journal Neurology found. For the research, scientists led by Dr. Justin B. Echouffo-Tcheugui studied 2,231 people with an average of 49 and free of dementia. He said, "Our research detected memory loss and brain shrinkage in middle-aged people before symptoms started to show. So it's important for people to find ways to reduce stress, such as getting enough sleep, taking part in moderate exercise, making relaxation techniques part of their daily lives or asking their doctor about their cortisol levels and taking a cortisol-reducing medication if needed." He also added, "It's important for physicians to give professional advice to all people with high cortisol levels."Researchers found lower scores on tests of memory and thinking in people with higher levels of cortisol than those with average levels. In addition, people with higher cortisol levels had a smaller brain volume, with those with high cortisol levels having brains that were 88.5 percent of the total cranial(颅骨的) volume. This was compared to 88. 7 percent of the total cranial volume for people with normal levels of the hormone. No links were found between low levels of cortisol and brain size.Cortisol helps the body respond to stress and when we are stressed, cortisol levels increase because that is our fight-or-flight(战或逃) response. It can also help reduce inflammation(发炎) and control blood sugar and blood pressure. High cortisol levels can be caused by stress, medical conditions or medications.“Cortisol affects many different functions so it is important to fully investigate how high levels of the hormone may affect the brain,” Dr Echouffo-Tcheugui said, “While other studies have examined cortisol a nd memory, we believe our large, community-based study is the first to explore, in middle-aged people, cortisol levels and brain volume, as well as memory and thinking skills. ”27. What may Dr. Echouffo-Tcheugui suggest people do about stress-reducing?A. Early to bed and early to rise.B. Strengthen the social network.C. Eat food with more protein.D. Ride a bicycle around a lake.28. Which statement about cortisol may the author agree to?A. Higher cortisol levels are associated with larger brain volume.B. The more stressed one feels, the higher his cortisol levels are.C. Age and gender play a big role in the participants' brain volume.D. People with high cortisol levels will suffer from low blood pressure.29. What's the possible direction for future research according to Dr. Echouffo-Tcheugui?A. How high cortisol levels affect human brains.B. The link between cortisol levels and memory.C. The link between cortisol levels and brain size.D. How cortisol affects peoples’ response.30. Why does the author write this passage?A. To suggest the efficient ways to reduce stress.B. To prevent the features and functions of cortisol.C. To explain how cortisol affects peoples’ stress level.D. To show stress can cause memory loss and brain shrinkage.第二节（共5 小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
