Li Hua and Wang Hai are students of Senior One. They all work hard but have different learning methods. Li Hua listens to her teachers attentive and tries to catch everything the teachers say. She spends more time doing her homework. It is certain what she can go to bed earlier and always keeps energetic in the day.

However, Wang Hai had a different way of learning. He likes to stay up late at the night, so he often feels sleepy in class. As the result, he misses lots of key point and it usually takes him more time to finish his homework, that makes it difficult for him to concentrate what he is doing. I prefer Li Hua's learning method.

Is it possible that the sinking of the Titanic was caused by a ghost? A lot of the story below is true… but did it really happen quite like this?

Our story begins not in the icy cold waters of the North Atlantic, but rather thousands of miles away in Egypt. It is here, perhaps, that we can find the start of the mystery of the Titanic, in the year 1910, in the great city of Cairo. One day, a famous professor of Egyptian history called Douglas Murray was staying in Cairo, when he was contacted by an American adventurer.

The American had something unusual to offer Murray, something that was certain to thrill him: a beautiful ancient Egyptian mummy case, containing the mummy of an Egyptian queen. It was over 3000 years old, but in beautiful condition — gold, with bright paintings on it. Murray was delighted with both the object and the asking price. He gave the man a cheque immediately.

The cheque was never cashed. That evening the American adventurer died. For his part, Murray arranged to have the treasure sent back to Britain. However, it was not long before he learnt more about the beautiful mummy case: On the walls of the tomb in which it had been discovered, there were messages which warned of terrible consequences to anyone who broke into the tomb. Murray was disbelieving of these warnings until a few days later, when a gun he was holding exploded in his hand, shattering his arm. The arm had to be cut off.

After the accident, Murray decided to return to his homeland. On the return journey, two of his companions died mysteriously, and two servants who had handled the mummy also passed away. The now-terrified Murray decided he would get rid of the cursed case as soon as he arrived in London. A lady he knew named Janet Jones said she would like it, so he gave it to her. Shortly afterwards, Jones’ mother died, and she herself caught a strange disease. She tried returning the mummy, but naturally Murray refused it. In the end, it was presented to the British Museum.

Even in the museum, the mummy apparently continued to cause strange events. A museum photographer died shortly after taking pictures of the new exhibit; and a manager also died for no apparent reason. In the end, the British Museum decided to get rid of the mummy too. They sold it to a collector in New York.

At the start of April 1912, arrangements for the transfer were complete, and the mummy began the journey to its new home. But the New Yorker never received the mummy or its case. For when the Titanic sank, one of the objects in its strong room was the mummy case. Or so they say.

At thirteen, I was diagnosed(诊断) with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.

In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.” She glanced down at me through her glasses, “You are no different from your classmates, young man.”

I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.

In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots(点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.

Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?

I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs.Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep trying?”

A. Angry.B. Impatient.C. Sympathetic.D. Encouraging.

3.The underlined phrase spilled out in Paragraph 5 probably means ________.

A. put inB. crowded inC. cheated inD. broke in

4.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. A teacher can open up a new world to students.

B. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.

C. The disabled should be treated with respect.

D. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.

Back in the 1860s, a British scientist named Henry Walter Bates noticed something interesting in the animal world: a kind of butterfly, Common Mormon, can change the pattern on its wings so that it looks like another butterfly species, the Common Rose, which is poisonous for birds to eat.

Bates argued that animals develop this ability to protect themselves from being eaten. This theory had been widely accepted by scientists. But one question remains: how do these animals manage to do that?

After more than 150 years, scientists are finally able to answer that question—it is all down to a gene (基因) called “doublesex", according to a study published on March 6 in the journal Nature.

In fact, scientists have long known that genes are responsible for this useful ability. But until the new study, scientists hadn't been able to find out which genes in particular were responsible.

Scientists at the University of Chicago compared the genetic structures of the Common Mormons that changed their wing patterns with those of ones that did not. And all the results pointed to a single gene, “doublesex”.

This was much to the scientists' surprise. They used to expect that something as complex as this would be controlled by many different genes. For example, one gene would control the color of the upper part of the wing, one would do so for the lower part.

However, the “doublesex” gene doesn't quite do everything by itself. Instead, it acts like a switch—it “tells” other genes to change the wing patterns. Isn't that clever?

Scientists believe that this special ability of the “doublesex” gene on Common Mormon was developed throughout the long history of evolution. “The harmless species gains an advantage by resembling something predators (捕食者) avoid,” Sean Carroll, a scientist told Nature. “it was obvious evidence for natural selection. ”

1.How do scientists find the truth of butterfly changing wing patterns?

A. By doing experiment on butterflies.

B. By comparing genetic structures.

C. By observing the butterflies.

D. By analyzing the result.

2.Which of the following ideas is accepted by scientists?

A. The ‘doublesex’ gene does do everything by itself.

B. The ‘doublesex’ gene is poisonous.

C. The ‘doublesex’ gene ‘tells’ other genes to change the wing patterns.

D. The ‘doublesex’ gene could only control the color of the upper part of the wing.

3.What is the best title of this passage?

A. How Common Mormons stay safe

B. How butterflies changed wings' pattern

C. What American scientists discovered

D. What genetic structures of butterflies have

Air pollution, such as haze, has become a serious problem around the world. Besides wearing a mask, what else can we do to protect ourselves from the dirty air?

Scientists have developed a new inhaler (吸入剂) that can reduce the effect air pollution has on people. It could help millions of people who are suffering from air pollution, the Guardian reports.

This inhaler is developed by German company Bitop and contains a molecule (分子) named Ectoine. The molecule creates a layer (涂层) that protects lungs from polluted air. It’s reported that the inhaler will be affordable to most people when it comes to the market.

Air pollution kills more than three million people a year worldwide and leads to health problems like lung and heart disease and strokes, according to a 2016 research project in the journal Nature. It is also linked to brain disease, mental illness and diabetes (糖尿病).

Andreas Bilstein at Bitop believed that the inhaler could be useful around the world, because air pollution is not just a European problem: “Especially in Asia - China in particular - the demand for such a product is even higher.”

Many Chinese cities have been suffering from haze. According to World Health Organization, two of the 10 most polluted cities in the world in 2015 were in China. About 800,000 deaths that are linked to air pollution take place in the country every year.

However, such inhalers should never be an excuse for not trying to stop air pollution, said Professor Jean Krutmann at the Leibniz Research Institute for Environmental Medicine. “The best thing is that we have clean air and we don’t need any prophylactic (预防性的) treatment,” he said.

1.What is the new inhaler?

A. It can help protect the environment.

B. It can help us reduce the harm of air pollution.

C. It can solve the air pollution problem.

D. It can make the dirty air clean.

2.From the third paragraph, we learn that ________.

A. the inhaler comes from a US company

B. the inhaler is named Ectoine

C. a molecule in the inhaler forms a layer on lungs

D. the inhaler’s price will not be too high for most people

3.Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Air pollution kills millions of people a year worldwide.

B. Air pollution can cause mental illness.

C. There are no air pollution problems in Europe.

D. Air pollution is a serious problem in China.

4.Which is Professor Jean Krutmann’s opinion?

A. Such inhalers mean much to people.

B. We should take action to control air pollution.

C. We can depend on inhalers to solve air pollution problems.

D. We’d better produce more medicines to treat lung diseases.

Around twenty years ago I was living in York. I had a lot of experience and a Master's degree,I could not find work.

I was a school bus to make ends meet and with a friend of mine,for I had lost my flat. I had five interviews with a company and one day between bus runs they called to say I did not the job. “Why has my life become so ?”I thought painfully.

As I pulled the bus over to a little girl; she handed me an earring I should keep it somebody claimed(认领) it. The earring was painted black and said “BE HAPPY”.

At first I got angry. Then it me—I had been giving all of my to what was going wrong with my rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a of fifty things I was happy with. Later, I decided to more things to the list. That night there was a phone call for from a lady who was a director at a large . She asked me if I would a one?day lecture on stress management to 200 medical workers. I said yes.

My there went very well, and before long I got a well?paid job. To this day I know that it was because I changed my way of that I completely changed my life.

A new international study shows that some people's biological clock plays a powerful role for their life expectancy, regardless of lifestyle choices.

Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday, the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others.

Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA, analyse blood samples collected from 13, 000 people and estimate their lifespan.

A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlier death, the study says.

"You get people who are vegan, sleep 10 hours a day, have a low-stress job, and still end up dying young," Horvath said in a statement. "We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate."

The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate, which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age.

"The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate," Horvath said, adding that "this is an important milestone to realizing this dream."

1.Some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others because ________.

A. their biological clock is not powerful enough

3.According to the study, it can be inferred that ________.

A. people who keep healthy lifestyle tend to live longer

B. people’s lifespan can be predicted by their age

C. 5 percent of people are believed to have a faster innate aging rate

D. anti-aging interventions have proved to slow the innate aging rate

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. We all should keep healthy lifestyle

B. Geneticist finds anti-aging interventions

C. Biological clock predicts life expectancy

D. Horvath builds an important milestone
