题目内容

Marie and Michael had been dating for some time, and felt fortunate that even though they had different jobs, they were able to talk with each other through their work almost every day. Michael is a police officer, and Marie is a “911” dispatcher（调度员）, both working for the same police department.

One day, Marie received a call from Michael who said he was out on the road in his patrol car.

“Marie, would you do me a favor?”

“Sure,” Marie answered, happy to have an excuse to talk to him.

“Could you check a license plate for me? I need to see if this guy has any unpaid warrants（罚单）.” Michael explained.

“Okay, spell it for me.”

Michael phonetically spelled out the license plate, using code names, as all police officers do, so Marie would be sure to get the right letter:

William Ida Lincoln Lincoln

Young Ocean Union

Mary Adam Robert Robert Young

Mary Edward

As she did hundreds of times a day, Marie wrote down the letters on a piece of paper, typed them into her computer, and started to run the license check. At first, she was puzzled. This license plate number was too long,even for a personalized plate. Her coworkers, who were in on Michael’s “plan”, finally had to say, “Marie, what do those letters spell?”

This time, Marie read just the first letters of each word out loud:W-I-L-L Y-O-U M-A-R-R-Y M-E?

With a cry of joy, Marie was all smiles as she got back on the phone to Michael, who was obviously not following any imaginary “driver” with the fictitious plates but was anxiously waiting in his patrol car for her response.

“Michael, are you there?” Marie began. “Yes, Marie?” he responded, his voice cracking a bit with nervousness.

“My answer is: yes!”

There was no “copping out”（回避） on this proposal!

56．Michael asked Marie to check a license plate for him because .

A．he was too busy to check out the identity of the driver himself

B．he wanted to ask her to marry him in this way

C．Michael needed the information urgently

D．Michael didn’t have access to a computer at that time

57．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A．Marie didn’t find the meaning of the letters at first.

B．Michael had difficulty in finding the owner of the license plate.

C．Marie’s co – workers intended to play a joke on her.

D．Michael was asking Marie for help.

58．We can learn from the passage .

A．Marie found the owner of the plate with the help of her coworkers

B．Michael was following a suspicious driver that day

C．Marie was not good at license check

D．Marie understood Michael’s intention at last

59．The underlined word “proposal” in the last paragraph probably means .

A．suggestion B．marriage offer C．plan D．purpose

　　Radioactivity is dangerous. It may cause skin burns, it may destroy good tissues（组织）and it may cause illness that could be passed on to our children and. grand children. In case of exposure（暴露）it may even cause death.

　　In the early days of radioactivity, scientists did not realize these dangers. Marie and Pierre Curie, after having worked for a while with radioactive materials, noticed that their fingers were reddened and swollen（红肿）and the skin was peeling off. Henry Becquerel carried a small tube with radium in it in his waistcoat pocket, and was surprised to find a bum on his chest. Other early workers also reported bums and harm of different kinds.

　　The strange fact is that it can harm without causing pain, which is the warning signal we expect from harmfulness. Pain makes us pull back our hands from a fire or a hot object, but a per-son carrying radioactive materials has no way of telling whether he is touching something too“hot” for safety. Besides, the“burns” or other harmfulness that radioactivity produces may not appear for weeks. A person may have been hurt without knowing it for some time.

(1) Which is the topic sentence for this passage?

[　　]

A．Radioactivity may ever cause death.

B．Radioactivity does great harm to children.

C．Radioactivity may do harm to people without being known.

D．Radioactivity is dangerous.

(2) A few people were mentioned in the passage. They ________.

[　　]

A．were all famous scientists of great achievements

B．died of radioactivity

C．knew little about radioactivity

D．did experiments on themselves to find the danger of radioactivity

(3) According to the point of the passage, pain ________.

[　　]

A．causes people to die

B．brings people suffering

C．is an important signal

D．is very much expected

(4) The sentence in the fifth line of the second paragraph“the skin was peeling off”means“________”．

[　　]

A．the skin was coming off

B．the skin was turning off

C．the skin was breaking away

D．the skin was fleeing

JeawGilles was a millionaire．But Tuesday night，he was sleeping in his car．
Jean-Gilles was the owner of the Peace of Mind Hotel in Jacrnel，Haiti, a three-story，30-room building in a quiet tropical valley on Haiti’s southern coast，25 miles from the noises of the capital，Port-au-Prince. Jean-Gilles and his wife，Marie，lived in an apartment on the property，close enough to watch carefully over the guest rooms，conference rooms and restaurant，close enough that they know the first name of every guest．
After the 7．0-earthquake hit at 4：57 pm on Jan．12，2010，they slept in their aging Isuzu，parked in the hotel driveway．
Jean-Gilles figured a second was the difference between life and death when the earthquake struck．He was working in a ground-floor conference room and first heard，then felt the quake．He asked his electrician．Rob-elTle St．Louis, who was working nearby，what was happening．
“Get out．Now．Get out．Now．”St．Louis said．
Jean-Gilles cleared the falling structure by a mere second，he estimated．His wife，who was working in the couple’s apartment on the second floor，wasn’t able to get clear．People nearby heard her screams after the shaking stopped and removed the building blocks around her by hand．She was shaken and scratched, but walked away from the ruins．
“I am alive．God is good．”she repeated over and over on Saturday．
The Peacc of Mind Hotel was a dream which had come true for Jean-Gilles,57,and Marie,59. Born in Port–au-Prince, they moved to the United States shortly after meeting 34 years ago. Together, they owned a beauty supply store in Jersey City, New Jersey, and invested in real estate.

Marie Curie was a Polish-born physicist and chemist and one of the most famous scientists of her time. Together with her husband Pierre, she won the Nobel Prize in 1903, and another one in 1911.
Marie Sklodowska was born in Warsaw on 7 November 1867, the daughter of a teacher. In 1891, she went to Paris to study physics and maths at the Sorbonne where she met Pierre Curie, professor of the School of Physics. They married in 1895.
The Curies worked together studying radioactivity(放射性), building on the work of the German physicist Roentgen and the French physicist Becquerel. In July 1898, the Curies announced the discovery of polonium(钋). At the end of the year, they announced the discovery of another, radium(镭). The Curies, along with Becquerel, won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903.
Pierre’s life was cut short in 1906 when he was knocked down and killed by a carriage. Marie took over his teaching post, becoming the first woman to teach at the Sorbonne, and devoted (献身于) herself to continuing the work that they had begun together. She received a second Nobel Prize, for Chemistry, in 1911.
The Curies’ research was important in developing X-rays in surgery. During World WarⅠ, Marie helped fixed X-ray equipment, which she herself drove to the front lines. She helped train doctors for the International Red Cross.
Although she achieved much success, men scientists in France were still against Marie, and she never received any financial help from her work. By the late 1920s her health was beginning to become worse. She died on 4 July 1934 from her dangerous research. The Curies’ eldest daughter Irene was a scientist and winner of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry.

QUESTION: Dear Marie,

Do you have some good suggestions of biology: plant, animal, human science experiments that would work well with teenagers? Scientific methods must go with the experiments. Thanks! <

Donna

ANSWER: Dear Donna,

Marie is not online and I’ll help you instead of him. There are a lot of little things that can be done, but do you mean lab experiment or statistical analysis, etc.? Let us know what can be suitable for you teens, and we will do our best to send you some experiments to do.

Best，

Gloria

Expert: Science Adviser - 3/23/2011

QUESTION: Dear Gloria,

I need lab experiments. The teenage students and I will use data from these experiments to make charts, graphs, tables, etc. and to provide claims and evidence to explain more about the results. Thank you very much.

Donna

ANSWER:

Hi there,

Your best and easiest way is to do some chemistry experiments. Those are very easy and most probably you can do it in the lab and have charts, etc. for you. I do not have any particular one at the top of my head because I do cancer research and it is a bit more difficult than research for teenagers. I think you can look through these and see if you find something useful for you. http://www.siraze.net/chemistry/sezennur/experiments.htm

If not, get back to me and Marie, and we’ll look more. The good thing about this site is that it has the procedures that you can follow.

Good luck，

Gloria
