阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
A university math tutor has discovered the science behind “singledom”, finding that our chances of finding the perfect partner are just 1 in 285,000. Peter Backus, a tutor at the University of Warwick, published his “Why I Don’t Have a Girlfriend” paper after a three-year love drought.
His unconventional study uses a famous math formula called The Drake Equation(德雷克等式), which was first used to estimate the existence of extra-terrestrial(地球以外) life.
The results don't look promising for British singles. 30-year-old Mr. Backus found that out of the 30 million women in the UK, only 26 would be suitable girlfriends for him.
The dull equation takes into account the number of women aged 24 to 34, living in his home city of London, and who are single, meaning his chances of meeting his dream woman on a night out are slim.
The economics expert said: “There are 26 women in London with whom I might have a wonderful relationship. So, on a given night out in London there is a 0.0000034% chance of meeting one of these special people. That’s a 1 in 285,000 chance, so it’s not great.”
The puzzling Drake equation reads: N =" R*" x Fp x Ne x Fi x Fc x L, and helped pioneering scientist Professor Drake to predict that there could be 10,000 civilizations in our galaxy.
Mr. Backus simply replaced the original equation with his own criteria for a dream date, which included the percentage of women likely to find him attractive, and the number of girls aged 24-34 in London. He said: “The research may sound depressing to people looking for love, but the good news for singles is, it’s probably not your fault!”
56. Mr. Backus’ discovery in this passage is mainly concerned about ______.
A. whether there exists life out of our planet
B. the possibility of his being able to find love
C. how to get rid of singledom
D. what math can do to serve our daily life
57. What does Mr. Backus think of the result of his research?
A. Optimistic.     B. Depressing.      C. Unrealistic.     D. Exciting.
58. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Mr. Backus’ major research field is “singledom”.
B. Mr. Backus found a girlfriend three years ago.
C. Mr. Backus’ new thesis will surely be well received.
D. Mr. Backus has been searching for love for long.
59. By “the good news for singles” in the last sentence, Mr. Backus probably mean _____.
A. you don’t have to blame yourself for remaining single
B. maybe the discovery is not reliable at all
C. the result was based on his own criteria
D. there might be more dream date out of London
60. Which of the following statements is true?
A. This passage could be published in a scientific magazine.
B. The passage intends to prove there are other civilizations.
C. The passage writer doesn’t really understand the Drake equation.
D. Most women in London are not suitable for university teachers.

My dear，

'Dearest, I feel certain I am going mad again. I feel we can't go through another of those terrible times. And I shan't recover this time. I begin to hear voices, and I can't concentrate.

                                                              Marie Curie Biography
      Marie Curie, née Maria Sklodowska, was born in Warsaw on November 7,1867,the daughter of a secondary-school teacher. She received a general education in local schools and some scientific training from her father. She became involved in a students' revolutionary (革命的) organization and found it prudent (深谋远虑的) to
leave Warsaw, then in the part of Poland dominated by Russia, for Cracow, which at that time was under
Austrian rule. In 1891,she went to Paris to continue her studies at the Sorbonne where she obtained
Licentiateships in Physics and the Mathematical Sciences. She met Pierre Curie,professor in the School of
Physics, in 1894 and in the following year they were married. She succeeded her husband as Head of the
Physics Laboratory at the Sorbonne, gained her Doctor of Science degree in 1903,and following the tragic (悲
剧的) death of Pierre Curie in 1906,she took his place as Professor of General Physics in the Faculty (系,院)
of Sciences, the first time a woman had held this position. She was also appointed (委派) Director of the Curie
Laboratory in the Radium Institute of the University of Paris, founded in 1914.
     Her early researches, together with her husband, were often performed under difficult conditions,
laboratory arrangements were poor and both had to undertake much teaching to earn a livelihood (生计).The
discovery of radioactivity (放射能) by Henri Becquerel in 1896 inspired the Curies in their brilliant (辉煌的)
researches and analyses (分析) which led to the isolation (分离) of polonium, named after the country of
Marie's birth, and radium. Marie Curie developed methods for the separation of radium from radioactive
residues(残渣) in sufficient (足够的)quantities to allow for its characterization and the careful study of its
properties, therapeutic (有疗效的) properties in particular.
      Quiet, dignified and unassuming, she was held in high esteem(尊敬)and admiration by scientists throughout
the world. She was a member of the Conseil du Physique Solvay from 1911 until her death and since 1922 she
had been a member of the Committee of Intellectual Co-operation of the League of Nations. Her work is
recorded in numerous papers in scientific journals.
     The importance of Marie. Curie's work is reflected in the numerous awards bestowed (给予) on her. She
received many honorary (光荣的) science, medicine and law degrees and honorary memberships of learned
societies throughout the world. Together with her husband she was awarded half of the Nobel Prize for
Physics in 1903,for their study into the spontaneous (自然的) radiation discovered by Becquerel, who was
awarded the other half of the Prize. In 1911 she received a second Nobel Prize,this time in Chemistry, in
recognition (认可) of her work in radioactivity. She also received, jointly with her husband, the Davy Medal
(奖章) of the Royal Society in 1903 and, in 1921,President Harding of the United States, on behalf of the
women of America, presented her with one gram (克) of radium in recognition of her service to science.
Do you think what made Marie Curie achieve so much? In my view
