15.Pierre is a 25-year-old penguin at the California Academy of Sciences.Due to his old age,he was going bald,which made him feel too cold to swim in the pool.Therefore,biologists at the academy had a wetsuit (潜水服)created for this penguin to help him get back in the swimming pool.
Unlike marine(海洋的)mammals,which have a layer of blubber to keep them warm,penguins depen on their waterproof feathers.Without them,Pierre was unwilling to jump into the swimming pool and ended up trembling on the side of the pool while his 19peers played in the water.
"He was cold; he would shake,"said Pam Schaller,a senior biologist.Schaller first tried a heat lamp to keep Pierre warm.Then she got another idea:if wetsuits keep humans warm in the cold Pacific,why not make one for Pierre?
Schaller designed the suit,which covered Pierre's body and had small openings for his flippers.
"I would walk behind him and look at where there were any gaps,and cut and refit and cut and refit until it looked like it was extremely suitable,"she said.
One concern was that the other penguins would reject Pierre in his new suit,but in fact,they accepted his new look.He swam freely and got along with others well,although he was the only penguin with a black stomach.
Schaller couldn't say for sure whether the wetsuit allowed Pierre to recover his fine feathers,but"certainly we were able to keep him comfortable during a period of time that would have been very difficult for him to stay comfortable".
Pierre will take off his suit after his new feathers grow back.

A.not having a layer of blubber

5.Keeping pace with teachers is a fine way to study English.Teachers are experienced and their plans are systematic.But remember to work in a way that suits you.It's importa nt to learn from past mistakes as well.Keep a notebook to make a record of the mistakes you make-it'll help you avoid making the same ones later.
The time of life may be hard,but you're not alone.You may be busy studying,but you can show your care by calling your friends or sending short messages.Don't let your friendships die.
It's as important to live well as it is to study well.Going to bed no later than 11:30 pm is vital.It puts you in the right mood for the next day.You needn't follow a special diet,but make sure you are eating nutritious meals each day.
The person who plays well,studies well.Having a lot of schoolwork doesn't mean having to give up other activities.Playing basketball or having a talk with your classmates can relax yourself.Time_out is not a waste of time but helps you study more efficiently.
Besides taking the big exam,you have other choices for college.I took the independent enrollment exam held by Peking University and some other students even were preparing to study abroad.Pay attention to any relevant information you can find,whether it's from school,the news media or other sources.

2.CAt one time it was the dream of many little girls to become a nurse.Today,however,America is facing its worst nurse shortage since World War I.Recently about 2,000,000nurses are needed and 60percent of all hospitals in the US have shortages large enough to threaten(=say that you will hurt somebody if they don't do what you want) the quality of care provided.The demand for nurses spreads widely throughout the nursing field.
What has become of these women in white?The answer lies in not one but several causes.One possibility is the fact that women have greater career options(职业选择).In the past,women who chose to work outside the home had two basic choices:nursing or teaching.Today,more women than ever are in the work force,but their choices have greatly increased.There are women doctors,lawyers,firefighters and police officers.In fact,women today are found in nearly every field of work.Nursing has been left behind,as women move on to jobs with higher pay and greater status(地位).A woman or man in the nursing field is often looked down upon as"just a nurse".Teachers may be also at fault.Many high school students are actually being steered(劝导) away from nursing,told by teachers that they are"too bright to be a nurse".
Americans are living longer than ever and requiring more medical attention.In fact,the number of elderly patients has almost doubled in the past twenty years.Obviously a larger population requires more nurses.AIDS and other diseases have caused more and more people to need nursing care.Usually fatal diseases mean long hospital stay,that is to say,more nurses are needed to care for these patients.It is estimated that the demand for nurses will be doubled the supply in the coming ten years.
44.Why is America facing its worst nurse shortage?C
A.Because American health conditions are becoming worse and worse.
B.Because more and more women prefer to be teachers and doctors.
C.Because women have been provided with many different jobs.
D.Because women no longer choose to be nurses.
45.The passage tells us that high school teachers are at fault forD.
A.not mentioning the worst nurse shortage in the US
B.introducing jobs with higher pay and greater status to their students
C.not asking the government to raise the nurses'payment
D.persuading the students not to be nurses
46.The author wrote this passage in order toB.
A.describe the unequal treatment of women in the US
B.warn people to pay more attention to the nursing problem
C.tell us women's free choice of jobs today
D.call on women not to be nurses
47.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?D
A.High school students think themselves too bright to be nurses.
B.Women in the US have greater career choice than those in other countries.
C.Of all the hospitals in the world 60percent more nurses are badly needed.
D.Nursing used to be a popular job among women.
9.Most of us lead a busy life.(11)C We think,"If I reached my goal,then I would be happy",or"If I could get a better job,then I would enjoy life."But why not enjoy life right now?
Firstly,take time to notice and appreciate the beauty in your own surroundings.(12)E"There is a great big world of wonder and beauty around us!"And as Brodersen explains,"Look for the beauty of the sunrise and of a friend's smile that brightens your day.Open your eyes to see the beauty you might not normally see.Doing so helps to cheer you up."
Secondly,taking time to experience some simple pleasures also can bring joy to your heart and ease your stress.Take me for example.(13)F  One universal simple pleasure is finding things that make you laugh.Make time to laugh every day.
Thirdly,don't take your family and friends for granted.Rich,rewarding relationships add greatly to the enjoyment of life.When you think of someone,why not call,e-mail or write them?(14)DAs Wayne Lawton explains,"Invest(投资) time to relationships.Remove the attitude,what's in it for me?Happiness is found in putting other's interests,desires and concerns ahead of our own whenever possible.Selfishness is a dead-end street."(15)G.

A.Be aware of beauty in nature.
B.In my spare time,I enjoy collecting stamps and reading novels.
C.Driven by the"urgent",we forget to enjoy life.
D.A short e-mail or phone call can make a world of difference to someone.
E.You don't need to travel far to find beauty.
F.I delight in simple things like my favorite tea drink,a bubble bath or family photos.
G.So please treasure relationship.

19.Abbie Conant,a musician living in Italy,was looking to move on from playing the trombone(长号) for the Royal Opera of Turin.She wrote a lot of letters,but only got one reply.It was from the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra(慕尼黑爱乐乐团).
The audition(试音) in June 1980 took place in a museum,since the orchestra's cultural center was unavailable.There were over 30 players and each one played their piece behind a screen,meaning the selection committee(评选委员会) could only hear them play.Conant played Ferdinand David's Konzertino for Trombone,a standard piece for auditions.Being a perfectionist,Conant was angry with herself for missing a note in the piece,and was seen packing the trombone away soon after the audition in preparation to leave.
But the selection committee knew immediately that Conant was the best of all the people they'd heard that day.They asked the other players to leave,and someone went to find Conant and told her the good news.
However,events took an unexpected turn:the selection committee were waiting,sure they were going to be introduced to Mr.Conant,when in walked a woman!The whole idea of a woman-lead trombonist went against tradition.
But Conant passed the other two auditions.She joined the orchestra and played her first year successfully.But then she found out that she would be playing second trombone,basically because she was a woman.
Conant took the orchestra to court(法庭).Though the orchestra said that Abbie Conant was not strong enough to play first trombone,she won.It took her years to prove herself in the eyes of the law,but she did it.
