10.A walker seriously injured in a mountain-top lightning strike which killed two others is showing signs of improvement,the police have said.A major rescue operation was performed on Sunday following two strikes which hit the Brecon Beacons,South Wales.Two men died,while two others were taken to hospital.
A police spokeswoman said,"A man in a serious condition in hospital,following simultaneous (同时发生的) incidents in the Brecon Beacons,has now improved and he is recovering.Officers are continuing to get in touch with the next of relatives of the dead men and enquiries are ongoing.All men were believed to be from England."
Mark Jones,of the Brecon Mountain Rescue Team,described the lightning strike as a freak accident,and something he had not been called out to in 30 years of service.
The walking group Ramblers Cymru said that while incidents involving thunder and lightning were rare,electrical storms should be taken seriously by walkers.
The organisation's delivery officer,Elly Hannigan Popp,said,"We'd advise everyone to check the weather forecast before starting a walk.If you hear thunder,see lightning or if your hair stands on end,postpone activities even if the sky looks blue and clear.Lightning will strike as far as 10 miles away from any rainfall.Lightning can strike the same place repeatedly-especially tall,pointed,isolated objects."
"If there is no shelter you should keep moving.And if you become the tallest object,crouch (蹲) in the open twice as far away from the nearest pointed object as it is tall.Make yourself as small as possible,stay on your toes and keep your heels together,as it will allow electricity to go up one foot,through the heels and back into the ground through the other."

29.What can we learn about the victims of the incident?C
A.Both of the injured men are recovering slowly,
B.The bodies of the two men haven't been found.
C.The four men involved may be from the same country.
D.The police cannot contact the two dead men's relatives.
30.Why did the author quote the police spokeswoman in Paragraph 2?D
A.Because the accident is very serious.
B.To announce where the victims come from.
C.Because the police are looking into the accident.
D.To tell the readers some facts of the incident.
31.What do the last two paragraphs tell us?D
A.Harm done by lightning.
B.Warnings from a delivery officer.
C.First aid in a lightning incident.
D.Safety tips on a lightning strike.
11.Some of the best known works of a11time were painted by the Dutch Post-Impressionist artist,Vincent Willem Van Gogh(1858-1890).
And Irises(1889)is among the most recognized of his pieces.
On May 8,1889,Van Gogh was admitted to the mental hospital at Saint Paul-de-Mausole,France.During his stay he painted some 130 paintings with the surrounding gardens and clinic becoming his main subjects for painting.
Among these were the famous The Starry Night and Irises.
Inspired by the nature surrounding him,Van Gogh began his work on Irises within the first week of his stay at the hospital.Like many artists of his time Van Gogh was influenced by Japanese woodblock(木刻)prints which began in the 17th century.The use of black outlines in Irises is a typical feature of the Japanese works.It helped to strengthen the expressive power of the painting.Irises is the one of Van Gogh's paintings that has a stillness and beauty not seen in many of his later works.
The technique of Japanese artist Hokusai was used by Van Gogh with precision.The use of blue and violet(紫色)bring the flowers to life.This also created a sense of movement and depth to the flowers.Van Gogh placed the irises unevenly(不均衡地)on the page,making the flowers the focus.These are all techniques taken from Hokusai.Van Gogh added to his work his own style,however,by placing orange marigolds carefully in the background.The position of a single white iris begs many questions from the viewers that are still open for interpretation(解读)Currently one of the most expensive paintings,Irises shows Van Gogh's ability to use his surroundings to paint images that have depth and character.Although it was painted during a time of suffering for Van Gogh,he was able to channel that energy into turning bright colors,deep outline and flat paint into works of art.His influence is forever felt among admirers and artists alike.

D.It serves as the background of the painting.
12.About 5,500years ago,one group of humans invented something truly revolutionary:the wheel.Almost overnight news of the innovation spread far and wide,and wheels became popular so quickly that some archaeologists say we can't be sure exactly where the wheel was invented.
According to HYPERLINK"http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/schools/psychology/people/dr-students/reindl-eva.aspx"Eva Reindl at the University of Birmingham in the UK,stories like this tell us a lot about what makes us human.Surprisingly,it's not that humans worked out how to make wheels that's important-it's the fact that other populations quickly caught on and copied the idea.Reindl and her colleagues say that a chimpanzee,gorilla or orangutan won't copy another ape's(猿) inventions.Each ape,says Reindl,learns for itself how to solve a problem.These species lack our cumulative(累积的) culture-they are constantly reinventing the wheel.
They also find out that even though our species relies on learning from others,it seems-as youngsters,at least-we're still capable of thinking entirely for ourselves.In this particular field,humans and other apes are apparently born in the same state.
Slightly paradoxically,Reindl says that finding similarities in the way humans and other apes are born can actually help us better define what really does make us unique as a species.This is because it highlights behaviors that we develop but that other apes do not.
For instance,although we might start out life with the same sort of tool-using capability that a chimpanzee possesses,we soon begin to behave in a more sophisticated way-precisely because we watch others and tap into the collective human wisdom that has accumulated down the generations."My colleagues and I work from the standpoint that cumulative culture is probably uniquely human,"says Riendl."But it's a subject of hot debate in the field right now."
On the other side of the debate are researchers like HYPERLINK"http://www.eva.mpg.de/primat/staff/boesch/"Christophe Boesch at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig,Germany."Our study of different tool selection in Tai chimps shows clearly that some important social component is at work in how chimps learn to select tools.In this region,at least,the apes actually do learn some tool use by carefully copying those around them.We still have so much to learn about tool use in chimpanzees,"says Boesch-including the complete range of tool use behaviors these apes show,how common each behavior is,and how individual chimpanzees learn to use tools for themselves.
It's not yet clear whether cumulative culture separates us from apes.The scientific jury clearly hasn't yet arrived at a decision.When consensus does emerge,we'll know whether our sister species share our ability to imitate others-or whether they are doomed to reinvent the same things over and over again.
61.The stories like wheels'invention are mentioned to show thatB.
A.humans can figure out how to invent wheels
B.humans can copy ideas and accumulate knowledge
C.apes aren't smarter than human beings
D.apes are capable of inventing the wheel
62.What can we infer from Boesch's study?A
A.Cumulative culture might exist in apes.
B.Apes can use tools by copying others.
C.Tools selection is an important social component.
D.Cumulative culture separates humans from apes.
63.What does the author think of the imitating ability of apes?D
A.They can do nothing but reinvent the same things over and over again.
B.Thinking for themselves is what they possess on their developing stage now.
C.Learning to copy others to use tools proves the existence of their imitating ability.
D.It remains to be seen whether apes have their cumulative culture.
64.Which of the following can best summarize the main idea of the passage?D
A.The invention and development of the wheel.
B.The differences between humans and apes.
C.The debate about cumulative culture in humans.
D.The argument about cumulative culture in apes.
9.Astronauts in space may suffer motion sickness,muscle loss,tiredness and bone loss due to low or zero gravity and weightlessness.But scientists at the University of Delaware are experimenting with little worms to better understand how space travel affects astronauts.
The millimeter-long worm,called C.elegans,is often used in medical studies because its life is only about two weeks long.Seventy percent of its DNA is the same as human DNA.
Chandran Sabanayagam,a scientist with the University of Delaware,built a microgravity simulator(模拟器)to test how C.elegans would perform in the actual zero gravity of space.
Scientists use a computer to watch the worms as they constantly turn over the simulator.The computer shows the worms as they would look under a microscope.Mr.Sabanayagam says the worms turn around and around in the simulator for about one week before they take them out,looking for changes in the worms'epigenome.The epigenome are chemical markers that relate to microgravity and that tell the DNA in the cells how to perform.They can be changed by the environment.And those changes pass from one generation to the next.
"When the worms are in microgravity environment some epigenomic marks remain even when we put it back into normal ground conditions.So its offspring(后代)keeps this epigenomic memory of the parents'microgravity environment."
The information gathered suggests that the epigenomic marks appear during the early part of a worm's life.Mr.Sabanayagam says identifying epigenomic marks is important for human studies in the future.
Mr.Sabanayagam thinks scientists can find genes(基因)in the human genome(基因组)similar to those in the worms that responded to microgravity.He says scientists could possibly observe those genes closely when astronauts travel in space.
Chandran Sabanayagam expects C.elegans to visit the International Space Station within two years.He hopes information gathered from the worm studies can be used to develop simple,low-cost and quick tests to measure an astronaut's health.
72.What is the purpose of the research?A
A.To seek a way to solve astronauts'healthy problems resulting from weightlessness.
B.To produce medicines from the C.elegans DNA to prevent astronauts from diseases.
C.To see how much similar the C.elegans DNA is to that of human.
D.To prove the practicability of taking the C.elegans to the outer space.
73.What does the underlined word"They"in the paragraph 4refer to?C
A.Scientists.
B.The worms.
C.The epigenome.
D.Astronauts.
74.What happens to the worms during the experiment?B
A.They are put under a microscope and turned around and around.
B.There are some changes in their epigenome with the microgravity environment.
C.Some of them can't adjust to normal ground conditions after the experiment.
D.Chemical markers in them have changed so that their DNA can't perform well.
75.According to the passage,scientistsB.
A.are having difficulties in identifying epigenomic marks in human genes
B.are still on the way to finding human genes that respond to microgravity
C.have sent C.elegans to the International Space Station for the experiment
D.believe using the worms to measure an astronaut's health is costly and quick.
