At a gathering,we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments.It came around to Frank.

Frank's voice dropped a bit."When the weather was bad he would (48)A me to school.He had this old truck that was older than he was(49)D he would drive toward the school,I would shrink down into the seat hoping to disappear.He would(50)Cright in front of the school gate,and it seemed like everybody  (51)Bbe standing around and watching.Then he would (52)A over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy.It was so (53)C for me.I was twelve years old,and my Dad would lean over and kiss me goodbye!"
He(54)Band then went on,"I remember the day when I said'No'"
It was the first time I had ever talked to him that(55)D,and he had this surprised look on his face.I said,'Dad,I'm too(56)A for a goodbye kiss.'
My Dad looked at me for the longest time,and his eyes started to tear up.I had never seen him(57)C.
He turned and looked out the windshield(挡风玻璃).'You're right,'he said.'You are a big boy…a man.I won't kiss you anymore.'"
Frank got a sad look on his face,and the tears began to (58)C in his eyes,as he spoke."It wasn't long after that when my Dad went to sea and never came back."
Tears were running down Frank's cheeks.He spoke again."Guys,you don't know what I would(59)Bto have my Dad give me just one more kiss on the cheek…to feel his rough old face…to smell the ocean on him…to feel his arm around my neck.I wish I had been a man then.If I had been a(60)D,I would never have told my Dad I was too old for a goodbye kiss."

5.Born in 1949,Diana Nyad took an early interest in swimming as a sport and was a Florida State High School swimming champion.Like many young athletes,she had Olympic dreams,but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games.The disappointment didn't stop her from going forward.Instead,she became interested in marathon swimming.A brilliant athlete,she was well-conditioned for spending long periods of time in the water.As a long-distance swimmer,she would compete against herself and the obstacles presented by distance,danger,cold,and exhaustion.
    For ten years Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the world's best long-distance swimmers.In 1970,she swam a ten-mile marathon in Lake Ontario,setting the women's record for the course.In 1972 she set another record by swimming 102.5 miles from an island in the Bahamas to the coast of Florida.Then she broke a third record when swimming around Manhattan Island in 1975.

17.Henrietta Lacks was born in 1920 in Virginia and raised on a tobacco farm.She married her first cousin,David Day and later settled near Baltimore in Turner Station where Day worked at a steel mill.After giving birth to her fifth child,she was diagnosed with cervical cancer.She was treated at Johns Hopkins,the only hospital within twenty miles that treated black patients and had been established as a charity hospital.
    In an attempt to grow everlasting cells,Dr.George Gey took samples of all women who came to Hopkins with cervical cancer.After taking a biopsy (活检) of Henrietta's cervical cancer,researcher Dr.George Gey discovered that unlike any cells they had seen before,Henrietta's cells could not only reproduce,but thrive outside the body--a breakthrough that would change modern medicine.Actually,her cells doubled in size every 24 hours and Dr.Gey shared these cells for free with any researcher interested.Later,Dr.Stanley Gartler found that Henrietta's cells were even capable of jumping out of the petri dish(培养皿) and taking other cell types.As a result,these cells,named HeLa(for Henrietta Lacks) were essential in the research into cancer,AIDS,the effects of radiation and poisonous substances,gene mapping,and countless other scientific pursuits.And they've been used in tens of thousands of research studies.
    Ms.Lacks died not too long after her diagnosis in 1951.She unknowingly held the key to unlocking medical advancements in her tumor cells.Now,decades after Henrietta's death,her cells are still alive.For many years,her family knew nothing about the impact her cells had on medical science-she provided a crucial sample of cells that has furthered the knowledge of medical science and disease prevention.
    Now nearly 60years after her death,in May 2011,Morgan State University in Baltimore awarded her an honorary degree.

25.What is the passage mainly about?A
A.A woman's contribution to medical progress.
B.The contribution of Johns Hopkins.
C.The original research of cancer.
D.The death of a black patient.
26.Which word can describe the cells of Henrietta Lacks?C
A.Radioactive.B.Poisonous.C.Active.D.Interesting.
27.What does the underlined word"thrive"mean probably?B
A.Die.B.Grow.C.Break.D.Change.
1.Cold blesses us all
It's November,the time of year when people often get blessed more.This is not because God likes cold weather,nor because others are fee ling generous with Thanksgiving just around the corner.(16)
DColds and the flu are the most common illnesses people get in autumn and winter as the weather gets colder.They are all caused by viruses,but colds are generally milder-you'll feel annoyed but not as if you want to die.
Teenagers catch average six to ten colds a year,according to statistics from the Ministry of Health,while adults average two to four.More  than  200  viruses  cause  cold  symptoms.(17)A You can be contagious(传染的)one day before symptoms develop and for up to five days after becoming sick.
The signature symptom of a cold is a runny nose.The flu will make you burn with fever,ache all over,feel extremely tired and cough intensely.The flu can sometimes lead to more serious diseases,such as pneumonia.
(18)FA doctor can test you to see whether you have the flu in the first few days of the illness.But some treatments for both are pretty much the same:
●(19)B Many doctors consider water a weapon against the common cold.It helps your blood drive off viruses and flood them out.
●Keep warm.You might be cold one minute and hot the next,and wearing several layers is very important.
●Wash your hands frequently.You don't want to make it worse by spreading the flu to everyone else.Also,avoid sharing cups and eating utensil s(餐具) with other people.
(20)G  But if your flu symptoms get worse,go to a hospital or clinic right away.

A.You can pass on the flu before you even know you have it.
B.Drink lots of water.
C.Taking medicine on time is a good way to prevent the illness.
D."Bless you!"is a common response to sneezes,the symptom of catching a cold or the flu.
E.Get lots of sleep and take it easy.
F.Sometimes,it's hard to tell a cold from the flu based on symptoms alone.
G.Most people who catch the flu get better without having to see their doctor.
