Laptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.

Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a ＄10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to “speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees—anywhere at all!

Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.

At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, “Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”

A. use for their schoolwork

Ireland，Japan，China scientists share the 2015 Nobel Prize for medicine．William Campbell，Satoshi Omura and Tu Youyou jointly won the prize for their work against diseases，the award-giving body said on Monday．

Tu Youyou, a scientist at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, has no postgraduate degree. She has never studied or done research abroad. She is neither a member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences nor the Chinese Academy of Engineering. However, the 81-year-old pharmacologist has become the first scientist on the Chinese mainland to win a Lasker Award, the medical prize of the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation.

The Lasker Awards have existed since 1945. Tu was presented the 2011 Lasker Clinical Medical Research Award on September 23. She discovered a drug called artemisinin . The drug is now widely used against malaria .

Tu and her colleagues joined a government project to find a new malaria drug in the late 1960s during the "cultural revolution" (1966-76). They made 380 herbal extracts from 200 potential recipes. The recipes came from traditional Chinese medical books. The team then tested them on malaria-infected mice. Finally Tu became interested in an extract of the plant qinghao, or sweet wormwood .

According to an ancient Chinese medicine book, qinghao was once used to treat malaria. However, the extract they made in the lab didn't work well. Maybe, thought Tu, the effective ingredient in qinghao was destroyed by high temperatures. Therefore, Tu tried to make the extract with an ether which has a much lower boiling point than water.

In 1971, after more than 190 failures, Tu finally got an extract that was 100 percent effective against the malaria parasites .The extract was called qinghaosu, later renamed artemisinin.

According to a statement on the Lasker Foundation website, during the past four decades, Tu's drug has saved millions of lives. It is especially important for children in the poorest and least developed parts of the world. However, not many people knew of the scientist until she won the Lasker Award this month.

Lasker Awards are known as "America's Nobels" for the reason that in the last two decades, 28 Lasker Prize winners have gone on to receive the Nobel Prize, and 80 since 1945, according to Xinhua News Agency.

" The discovery of artemisinin is a gift to mankind from traditional Chinese medicine," Tu said when she received the a-ward. "Continuous exploration and development of traditional medicine will, without doubt, bring more medicines to the world.

1.What can we infer from the second paragraph?

A. It is unnecessary to study abroad as a scientific researcher.

B. Chinese medicine used not to be recognized in Western countries.

C. Tu achieved great things although she didn't have an impressive background.

D. Tu is the first female scientist to win a Lasker Award.

2.In the process of discovering artemisinin, Tu _________.

A. began with a private project

B. succeeded during the first experiments

C. faced many different opinions

D. made extracts in a creative way

3.Why is artemisinin especially important for children from poor countries?

A. It is a very cheap medicine and easy for them to get hold of.

B. They believe in the effect of Chinese medicine.

C. There are no other cures for malaria.

D. It has the fewest side effects for children.

4.According to the article, the Lasker Awards _________.

A. are more influential than Nobel Prizes in the medical field

B. are awarded to those who have made great medical achievements

C. are awarded to more Americans than people from any other country

D. are usually awarded to scientists who are not famous in their field

The highlight of my journey was to be Paris，the city I'd always longed to see．But now I was frightened to travel without a companion．I steeled myself and went anyway．I arrived at the train station in Paris panicked．Pulling my red suitcase behind me，I was pushed by sweaty travelers . On my first Metro ride, I encountered a clumsy pickpocket．I melted him with a look，and he eased his hand from my purse to fade into the crowded car. At my stop，I carried my heavy suitcase up the steep stairs and froze in confusion．Somewhere in this confusing city my hotel was hidden，but suddenly I couldn’t read my own directions．I stopped two people．Both greeted me with that Parisian face that said："Yes, I speak English，but you'll have to struggle with your French if you want to talk to me."

When I finally found the hotel，my heart was pounding. Then when I saw my room．I couldn't stay．Could I? The wallpaper looked like it had been through a fire．The bathroom was down the hall，and the window looked out onto the brick wall of another building．Welcome to Paris．It was my third week away from home and my kids，and I had arrived in the most romantic city in the world, alone, lonely and very scared．

The most important thing I did in Paris happened at that moment．I knew that if I didn't go out，right then，and find a place to have dinner，I would hide in this place my entire time in Paris. I might never learn to enjoy the world as a single individual．So I went out．Evening in Paris was light and warm．I strolled along a winding path，listening to birds sing，watching children float toy sailboats in a huge fountain．Paris was beautiful．And I was here alone but suddenly not lonely．My sense of accomplishment at overcoming my fear had left me feeling free，not abandoned．

During my week's stay in Paris．I did everything there was to do，and it was the greatest week of my European vacation．I returned home a believer in the healing power of solitary travel．Traveling alone makes up for its problems by demanding self－reliance and building the kind of confidence that serves the single life well．Certainly Paris became my metaphor(比喻说法）for addressing life's challenges on my own．Now when I meet an obstacle I just say to myself: If I can go to Paris，I can go anywhere．

1.How did the two Parisians respond when the author turned to them?

A. They warmly offered her help.

B. They asked her to speak French.

C. They thought she should struggle to learn French.

D. They showed they were only willing to communicate in French.

2.Which of the following statements is NOT true ?

A. Her purse was stolen on her first Metro ride.

B. She had great trouble finding the hotel she had booked.

C. She might have felt abandoned before she decided to explore alone.

D. Her stay in Paris was the most memorable part of her journey.

3.The underlined word in the last paragraph probably means_________

A. make up for B. deal with

C. come across D. believe in

4.What did the author learn from her solitary trip in Paris?

A. Solitary travel can heal people’s wounds.

B. Traveling alone brings about many problems.

C. Traveling alone helps people become independent and confident.

D. Solitary travel in Paris makes it not a challenge to go anywhere.
