15．A woman in the US is able to speak for the first time in 11years after a pioneering voice box transplant（移植）．
Brenda Jensen said the operation was a great success which had saved her life．Thirteen days after the surgery she said her first words："Good morning，I want to go home．"It is the first time a voice box and windpipe（气管） have been transplanted at the same time and only the second time a voice box has ever been transplanted．
Ms．Jensen，52，had been unable to speak on her own since her voice box was damaged during surgery in 1999．Since then，she has been unable to taste or smell food，could breathe only through a hole in her windpipe and could talk only with the help of an electronic voice box．
In October，surgeons at the University of California Davis Medical Centre removed the voice box and 6cm of the windpipe from a donor body．In an 18-hour operation，this was transplanted into Ms．Jensen's throat and the team connected it to her blood supply and nerves（神经）．
Professor Martin Birchall from University College London，who was part of the surgery team，said："We've learned that we can repair nerves to make even very complex organs function again．It'll open the door to better facial transplants and will be extremely important as tissue engineering develops．"
A voice box transplant might be life changing，but it is not life saving．Everyone who receives a transplant must take drugs to control the immune system（免疫系统）for the rest of their lives．These drugs can reduce life expectancy，so they are normally set aside for life saving procedures．
One of the reasons Ms．Jensen was a suitable person for this transplant was that she was already taking immune controlling drugs after a kidney-pancreas transplant four years ago．Professor Peter Belafsky，part of the surgical team，said："Brenda was an exceptional candidate for the transplant because she was highly motivated．Anyone who's met Brenda knows that she is a strong and determined person with a great outlook on life in spite of the many physical challenges she's faced over her lifetime．
64．Ms．Jensen was a suitable person for this transplant because she wasD．
A．determined and realistic
B．experienced and brave
C．seriously ill and motivated
D．strong-willed and prepared
65．Which of the following is the right time order of the event？D
a．Ms．Jensen received a voice box transplant operation．
b．Ms．Jensen began to take immune controlling drugs．
c．Doctors removed the voice box from a donor body．
d．Ms．Jensen had a kidney-pancreas transplant operation．
A．acdb          B．cabd        C．bdca        D．dbca
66．Which is the best title for the passage？B
A．Tissue engineering
B．First Words from New Voice
C．Brenda's sufferings
D．Courageous Woman Defeating Fears．

2．My brother lay on the bed，absorbed（absorb） in the book，Jane Eyre．

12．Born with easy-broken bone disease，Zhang Yonghong is only half a meter tall and must use a wheelchair．His thin arms and legs can hardly support any weight，and he is unable to take care of himself．However，his hands are able to produce fine paper-cuts，which will free his daughter from the same disease．
To support himself，he learned how to make paper-cut art from his mother．He sold his artwork and taught his techniques in Xi'an for eight years before discovering his young daughter inherited the disease from him，leading Zhang to move his family to Beijing for his daughter's better treatment five years ago．
The daughter's treatment costs about 30，000 yuan a year．The family's savings was used up in two years，and Zhang was forced to start to sell his work in underground passages with his healthy wife，who soon left him because of the hard life．
With a little help from government，he was lucky to meet some kindhearted people in Beijing．A Hong Kong businessman gave 60，000 yuan to him last year to treat the girl and start a small shop on Qiangulouyuan，which is known as a famous hutong that attracts lots of tourists over holidays．Zhang Rui，a university graduate，spends most of her time helping Zhang sell the paper-cuts，translating the stories the paper-cuts tell into English and selling the works on the roadside of Nanluoguxiang．
However，the artist still lives beyond his income （收入） and struggles to continue his small business．"Selling paper-cuts is his only source of income．Without this，he can't support the family and treat his daughter，"says Zhang Rui，who hopes more people will help Zhang．
56．Why did Zhang grow only half a meter tall？A

19．Everyone in the class is expected to participate（参加） in these discussions．

16．A recent study has shown that eating a small amount of dark chocolate every day could be good for your health．Scientists have found that a regular 2ounces can help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of having a heart attack or stroke（中风）without any weight gain．But take care before you reach for a large bar．The effects are canceled out if more than 30calories are taken into your body each day，the researchers warn．
It's already known that a chemical called polyphenol（多酚），found in chocolate，can help reduce blood pressure，and blood pressure lowered in this way can reduce the risk of death from a stroke by 8percent and from a heart attack by 5percent，scientists declare．And it can also reduce the risk or death in general by 4percent．
A daily diet with a little chocolate has the same effect with some special diets designed to lower blood pressure，according to one researcher．"Although all the degree of the blood pressure reduction is small，the effects are quite obvious，"the researchers said．
However，Sara Stanner，a nutritionist at the British Heart Foundation，is quite cautious．"This study suggests that small quantities of small chocolate might have good effects on blood pressure．However，it is important to remember that chocolate is also high in fat and calories．So eating much is not good for your heart．""Polyphenols are also found in fruits and vegetables，which can be taken in without the risks associated with overintake，"she added．
But the German study shows that the fat content does not cancel out the good effects-at least where small amounts are concerned．
32．How is Paragraph 2developed？B
A．By making comparisons．
B．By listing figures．
C．By analyzing causes．
D．By giving examples．
33．What health benefits does dark chocolate have？B
A．It lowers blood pressure heavily．
B．It may prevent heart attacks in a way．
C．It's useful for controlling one's weight．
D．It helps people strengthen their body．
34．What do Sara Stanner's words suggest？D
A．Eating chocolate has no health benefits．
B．Dark chocolate is not so nutritious as expected．
C．The findings of scientist's study are not scientific．
D．Eating fruits and vegetables may be a better choice．
35．What will be discussed in the following passage？A
A．Some details of the German study．
B．Benefits of fruits and vegetables．
C．Harm of overeating dark chocolate．
D．The proper amount of dark chocolate taken in．

17．Like many other small boys，I was fascinated by cars，not least because my oldest brother was a bit of a car guy and subscribed to cool magazines like Car and Driver and Motor Trend．Every so often，one of those magazines would run an article on the"Car of the Future"．They featured unconventional styling and things like small nuclear reactors as power sources．Yet，frankly，my car doesn't do anything that my brother's Studebaker didn't do．It goes，it stops，it burns gasoline，it plays music．I still have to steer it，and it still runs into things if I don't steer it carefully．
But guess what？All of these things are subject to change in the not-so-distant future．It will still go and stop，but it may not burn gasoline，I may not have to steer it，and it may be a lot better at not running into things．
Airbags aren't the be-all and end-all in safety．In fact，considering the recent news about people occasionally being killed by their airbags in low-speed collisions （碰撞），they obviously still need some development．But they aren't going away，and in fact，you can expect to see cars appearing with additional，side-impact airbags，something some European car manufacturers already offer．
Better than systems to minimize （使减少到最低限度） injury in the event of an accident，however，are systems that minimize the likelihood of an accident happening in the first place．Future cars may be able to eliminate many of the major causes of accidents，including drunk-driving，tailgating （与前车距离过近） and sleepiness．Cars could be equipped with sensors that can detect alcohol in a driver's system and prevent the car from being started，for example．Many accidents are caused by people following the car in front too closely．As early as next year，you'll be able to buy cars with radar-equipped control systems．If the radar determines you're closing too quickly with the car in front，it will ease up on the throttle （油门）．For city streets，expect other radar devices that will give advance warning that the car in front of you has slowed abruptly （突然地） and you should step on the brakes-or that may even brake for you．
Will cars eventually be able to drive themselves？There's no reason to think it won't be technically possible，and Mercedes is working on a system that can brake，accelerate and steer a vehicle down a highway on its own．Nobody really expects people to give up all control to their cars，but such systems could be used as failsafe systems to keep cars on the road and bring them safely to a stop even if the driver suddenly became disabled．
28．Why was the author fascinated by cars？B
A．Because other small boys liked to own a car of their own，too．
B．Because he read exotic things about cars in his brother's magazines．
C．Because his oldest brother loved to take him to places in his car．
D．Because he subscribed to cool car magazines．
29．By saying"my car doesn't do anything that my brother's Studebaker didn't do"，the author means thatC．
A．my car is far better than my brother's
B．my car is not as good as my brother's
C．not much has changed in the performance of cars so far
D．much improvement has been made in the design of cars recently
30．Which of the following statements is true of airbags？A
A．They are in need of further improvement．
B．They are going to disappear gradually．
C．They kill people instead of protecting them in low-speed collisions．
D．They are a standard feature of European cars．
31．According to the author，what will future cars do if the sensors detect alcohol in the driver's system？D
A．They will give a warning in advance．
B．They will brake automatically．
C．They will ease up on the throttle．
D．They will not start．
32．Which of the following statements is true according to the last paragraph？B
A．People will give up all control to their cars．
B．Cars will be able to drive themselves．
C．No cars will ever break down on the roads．
D．Cars will all be equipped with failsafe systems．
