Everyone has his idol, so do I. I admire my father. He was a highly educated, intelligent gentleman. He could debate or discuss for hours on almost any topic and hold your  _____ in the process. I thought there was nothing he wasn’t  _____ to do.

A few days before my younger brother’s 7th birthday, Dad planned to assemble(装配)a new _____  as a special birthday surprise.

Later he  _____ the paper of instructions,  ____ up his tool box, and decided to take the bike back to the local toy store and pay extra  ____ to have it correctly assembled there.  ____  an idea came to him, as he called out to Lovett, the quiet little man who cut our grassland.

“Lovett, have you ever assembled a boy’s bicycle?”

As Lovett walked towards the bike, Dad handed him the  _____. Lovett handed it back to him, saying, “No, thanks. I can’t read.

Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.

Born in September, 1897, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies’ two daughters. Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of Sévigné in Paris.

Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics. When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-ray facilities(设备) to help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X-ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgrum. Her services were recognised in the form of a Military’s Medal by the French government.

In 1918, Irene became her mother’s assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926. Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later.

Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia because of her work with radioactivity(辐射能). Irene Joliot-Curie died from leukemia on March 17, 1956.

1.Why was Irene Curie awarded a Military Medal?

A. Because she received a degree in mathematics.

B. Because she contributed to saving the wounded.

C. Because she won the Nobel Prize with Frederic.

D. Because she worked as a helper to her mother.

2.Where did Irene Curie meet her husband Frederio joliot?

A. At the Curie Institute. B. At the Cniversity of Paris.

C. At a military hospital. D. At the College of Sevigne.

3.When was the second child of Irene Curie and Frederic Joliot born?

A. In 1897. B. In 1927.

C. In 1932 D. In 1926.

4.In which of the following aspects was Irene Cuire different from her mother?

A. Irene worked with radioactivity. B. Irene combined family and career.

C. Irene won the Nobel Prize once D. Irene died from leukemia.

Japan is a mysterious land of technological wonders, but the latest is a relatively simple solution to an age-old problem faced by beginners and professional chefs alike.

Grocery stores across the country are about to start stocking onions that won’t make people cry. The new tear-free onion is called the Smile Ball, which is a pretty adorable name for a vegetable, and it’s an onion carefully engineered to not irritate (刺激) the eyes of people who cut into it.

Regular onions release a gas when their cells are damaged and that gas irritates people’s eyes and make them tear up. The Smile Ball onions release no such a gas, so they can be chopped easily. They are also sweet like fruit when eaten raw.

The scientific advancement of the tearless onion is not free, however. Smile Balls, developed by the Japanese producer House Foods, will cost about $4.30 for a pack of just two when they go on sale in supermarkets across Japan. That’s about double the cost of a normal onion, but it might be worth the extra money for those who are particularly sensitive to traditional onion gas. Earlier test sales of the tear-free onions were held in Tokyo, with the onions selling out quickly.

1.What do the people say about tear-free onions?

A. They’re too expensive to afford.

B. They’re sweeter than candies.

C. They're especially suitable for kids.

D. They’re worth buying, though expensive.

2.What can we learn about the Smile Ball?

A. It never gives off a strong gas.

B. It has a pretty look.

C. It belongs to a new kind of fruit.

D. It rarely goes bad.

3.What’s mainly discussed in the last paragraph?

A. How to produce tear-free onions.

B. Tearless onions are more popular.

C. The development of House Foods.

D. People are sensitive to tearless onions.

4.What can be the suitable title of the text?

A. Say Goodbye to Regular Onions

B. Tear-free Onions vs Regular Onions

C. Onions That Don’t Make You Cry

D. The Future of Tear-free Onions

You wait in a long queue in the supermarket, but when it’s finally your turn to pay, you can’t find enough money in your purse. 1. While you are bending down to look for them, the people behind you are getting angry. The cashier is pounding her fingers impatiently on the counter.

2. But the good news is: scientists have thought of a way to make queues shorter and paying for things easier. They have invented an eye scanner. In the future, when you pay for food at the supermarket, an eye scanner will take a picture of your eyes and a computer will identify you. 3.

Students at Venerable Bede School, England, have already got an eye scanner in their cafeteria. After the students choose the food they want, the scanner looks for their information and sends a list of the food to their parents. 4. Also, parents pay for the meals at the end of the week, so the students don’t have to take money to school and wait in long queues to pay for their lunch.

If all shops had eye scanners, shopping would be easier. 5. So, it seems that it will be a while before most of us get our eyes scanned at the cashier.

A. Sometimes shopping can be unpleasant.

B. You take out your credit cards, but they fall on the floor.

C. If students aren’t eating a healthy diet, their parents will know.

D. Stores are trying several new ways to get shoppers to spend more.

E. Parents are urging the government to introduce better security safeguards.

F. However, eye scanners are very expensive and many shops can’t afford them.

G. As soon as the machine finds your information, it will send it to your bank which pays for your food automatically.

Retired nurse Sue Collins was just beginning the second length of her local pool when her morning swim suddenly became anything but a pleasure.

Two months ago Sue, 69, who has never suffered from asthma or any other breathing problem in the past, suddenly found herself hard for breath.

“I felt as if my throat and oesophagus (食道) were closing up,” says Sue.

Sue is convinced the problem is related to the indoor swimming baths. “I spend half the year in Turkey and swim every day outside in a pool or the sea there and never have this problem,” she says.

She may be right, because although a trip to the pool is the perfect exercise for many, the chlorine (氯气) used to keep the water free from germs can lead to problems.

But in most cases it’s not the chlorine that causes problems, but the by-products formed when chlorine interacts with other substances — and this is mostly due to people not showering before they enter the pool.

“This then poisons the water for them and for others,” says Dr. Hull. “The chlorine interacts with sweat and urine(尿素) on the skin and forms by-products called chloramines that float above the surface as a gaseous solution that can be inhaled in.”

Chloramines are heavier than air so hang over the water where they are easily breathed in. Some believe they may cause lung disorders. A Swedish study in 2013 examining the health of 146 workers at 46 indoor pools found that 17 per cent had airway trouble at work — but no problems at home.

As Dr. Hull says: ‘People need to remember that showering isn’t just for them. It is for the greater good.’

1.Where did Sue suddenly suffer from asthma?

A. In an outdoor swimming pool. B. In the sea.

C. In an indoor swimming pool. D. At home.

2.Why should we put chlorine into the water of the pool?

A. To keep the water warm. B. To kill the germs in the water.

C. To make the people easy to breathe. D. To stop the possibility of asthma.

3.Taking a shower before swimming in the pool is to ________.

A. stop the interaction between the chlorine and sweat and urine on the skin

B. make the swimmer feel comfortable

C. obey the rule of the pool

D. stop people from breathing in the chlorine

4.What’s the purpose of the passage?

A. To show how to avoid asthma.

B. To explain chloramines’s usage.

C. To help people cure asthma.

D. To tell people why to take a shower before swimming in a pool.

Reading and learning new words is about finding their meaning and use within a passage. The meaning of unknown words which you _______ in your reading sometimes can be known by their_______, that is, their contexts.
