I am Peter Hodes, a volunteer stem cell courier. Since March 2012, I’ve done 89 trips ---- of those, 51 have been abroad, I have 42 hours to carry stem cells (干细胞) in my little box because I’ve got two ice packs and that’s how long they last. In all, from the time the stem cells are harvested from a donor to the time they can be implanted in the patient, we’ve got 72 hours at most. So I am always conscious of time.

I had one trip last year where I was caught by a hurricane in America. I picked up the stem cells in Providence, Rhode Island, and was meant to fly to Washington then back to London. But when I arrived at the check-in desk at Providence, the lady on the desk said: “Well, I’m really sorry, I’ve got some bad news for you ---- there are no flights from Washington.” So I took my box and put it on the desk and I said: “In this box are some stem cells that are urgently needed for a patient ---- please, please, you’ve got to get me back to the United Kingdom.” She just dropped everything. She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me, re-routed (改道) me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.

For this courier job, you’re consciously aware that in that box you’ve got something that is potentially going to save somebody’s life.

1. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “courier” in Paragraph 1?

A. provider B. collector

C. delivery man D. medical doctor

2. Why does Peter have to complete his trip within 42 hours?

A. The ice won’t last any longer.

B. The donor can only wait for that long.

C. The operation needs that much time.

D. He cannot stay away from his job too long.

3.Which fight did the woman put Peter on first?

A. To Newark. B. To London.

C. To Providence. D. To Washington.

A funny thing happened between China’s first female Nobel Prize winner, Tu Youyou, giving her acceptance speech in Sweden and that speech reaching her home country: Two entirely different versions appeared, and the fake one became a viral hit.

Guess which version is genuine? The one that matter-of-factly tells about the discovery of artemisinin(青蒿素), or the one with extreme literary style, complete with her father explaining the origin of her given name and poetic lines such as, “I like tranquility(宁静), tranquil as the leaves of sweet wormwood(蒿草).”

Most readers were so touched by the literary version that they were left in tears. However, they just forgot that Tu is not a woman of letters, but one of science. It was totally made up by someone who obviously has great literary talent, but could not fathom the inner life of a scientist.

I don’t know who made up the Tu speech, or for what purpose. It does not strike me as funny. Fortunately, no mainstream media seemed to have been fooled. Yet the fake one has probably been shared more than the real one because it played to the Chinese stereotype(固定形式) of what such a speech should be.

China’s cyberspace(信息空间) is full of educational and uplifting quotes, and quite a lot of them are made up. There is a joke that says the United States’ spying network collected and examined all the Internet data in China and found that the Chinese are addicted to such chicken soup, including that from untrustworthy sources.

1.The reason why many readers were moved to tears by the fake speech is that ________.

A. it was based on Tu’s real life

B. it was written in literary style

C. the readers had passions for science

D. the readers knew about the origin of Tu’s given name

2.What does the underlined word “letters” mean in the fourth paragraph?

A. Written messages addressed to a person or organization.

B. Characters in an alphabet that represent speech sounds.

C. Certificate or license.

D. Literary knowledge, ability, or learning

3.Why has the fake speech been shared more than the real one?

A. Because it was the Chinese stereotype.

B. Because many mainstream medias were fooled.

C. Because it was funny.

D. Because the writer understood the inner life of a scientist.

4.The purpose of the article is to _______________ .

A. prove that Chinese are addicted to fake news

B. prove that Chinese scientists have no literary talent

C. tell us there are a lot of fake news on the Internet

D. find out who made up the fake speech
