【题目】Could smells affect your lifespan? Female fruit flies (果蝇) without the ability to smell food live longer than other fruit flies.The sense of smell may be connected to the cellular ageing (细胞老化) process in many other living things even people.Such connection has recently been found in both worms and flies.For example, scientists found that removing fruit flies' ability to smell made them live nearly 20 percent longer than flies with a sense of smell.

They confirmed that food smells were the ones most likely to affect ageing, as nutrition (营养) and lifespan are known to be connected in many living things.To test the idea that food smells affect lifespan, they removed flies' ability to smell carbon dioxide, which is produced by some fly foods.They left the rest of the smelling system.

This action had no effect on male flies, but the females lived 30 percent longer than normal.Removing the ability to smell CO2 may stop flies getting information about food availability.This could mean that food is not enough, causing processes that encourage

flies to survive.Scientists found that the female flies from stored extra fat and that both males and females immune (免疫) to CO2 were stronger against the stress than normal flies.It is suggested that females may simply be easily influenced by the smells of CO2

Scientists point out that people don't know whether ageing and smell are connected in animals and humans.But they clearly experience physical changes after smelling food.

1From the passage, we learn that what scientists found is to ________.

A. show there is the best way to make lifespan longer

B. tell us we should remove our smell ability to live long

C. show the sense of smell can affect the cellular ageing process

D. explain fruit flies without ability to smell can live longer

2Scientists do some research to prove

A. the immune system of flies to CO2

B. the connections between nutrition and lifespan

C. the importance of food smells to our humans

D. the connections between food smells and lifespan

3According to scientists' opinion, we can see that ________.

A. flies without ability to smell is encouraged to store extra energy

B. male flies in general can live longer than female ones

C. both male and female flies can live longer without the ability to smell

D. flies without ability to smell can also get information about food availability

4Which of the following best describes the passage as a whole?

A. CO2 has few effects on female flies.

B. The sense of smell might have an effect on living things.

C. The sense of smell is necessary to humans' health.

D. Female fruit flies can always live longer than male flies.

A History of English...in Five Words

In 1582, Richard Mulcaster, headmaster of a British school, wrote that the English would not go beyond their island. However, it didn't stay that way. Today, English is spoken all over the world.

English is a colorful and diverse (多样的) language that long has picked up words from many other languages. Here are five words that show the English language’s interesting history. English

English began in the language spoken by the early Germanic people in the fifth century AD. It is from them that the word “English” comes. First it is the Latin word Angli which means the people of Angul, where the Germanic people were from.

Beef

Although roast beef is seen as a traditional English dish, the word “beef” was introduced from the French boeuf during the Middle Ages. It was one of a group of words, including pork and mutton, that were taken from the speech of the French who moved in Britain following the Norman Conquest (诺曼底登陆) of 1066. However, the farmers who kept these living things continued to call them by their old English names: cow, pig and sheep. This difference passes on till today.

Dictionary

Dictionary is a borrowing from Latin dictornarius liber, “book of words”; It first appeared in English in the 6th century, along with a huge number of other words from Latin and Greek. The first English dictionary was written by Robert Cawdrey in 1604. Cawdrey focused only on the difficult words whose meanings would have caused problems for those not educated in Latin and Greek.

Tea

Tea was brought into Britain early in the 17th century, becoming very popular by the 1650s. By the 18th century it had become a symbol(标志) of fashionable society and a best-selling of the coffee house culture.

The word tea rises from the Chinese word cha. A love of tea is so ingrained (根深蒂固的) in British life that the expression “cup of tea” has come to stand for anything viewed positively. The saying “It’s not my cup of tea.” means: I don’t like it.

Emoji

Emoji began developing in Japan in the 1990s for use by teenagers: the word “emoji” comes from the Japanese e “picture” + moji “letter”. Its successful acceptance in English has been helped by its similarity to words with the e-prefix (前缀) like e-mail. The Unicode Consortium’s (统一码 联盟的) official lists emojis and their meanings, but users keep finding creative new ways to employ them. Emojis are just another example of the development and diversity of English.

1What language is the word “beef ” from?

2Who wrote the first English dictionary?

3What does “it’s not my cup of tea” mean?

4Why is the word “emoji ” successfully accepted in English?

5What makes English a colorful and diverse language?

【题目】Four years ago, Chinese skater Wu Dajing introduced himself to the skating world by winning a silver medal at the Sochi Olympic Winter Games. At this year’s Pyeong Chang Olympics, Wu not only returned, but also made history.

On Feb 22th, 2018, Wu won the gold medal in the men’s short-track 500-metre race. He set a new world record with a time of 39.584 seconds. He also became the first Chinese man to take home an Olympic short-track gold medal. BBC said Wu’s win was “flawless”, because he was much faster than all of the other skaters.

“I didn’t give them a chance and I kept my speed from the start,” he told the media after the match.

But China’s short-track teams didn’t do well in general at the Games. Chinese skaters in the women’s 500 metres, 3000-metre relay and men’s 1500 metres all failed to take home the gold. Wu was China’s biggest hope, which put a lot of pressure on him. But he proved himself with his great performance.

Wu is now known as a highly talented skater. But things were not always that way. When Wu joined the national team in 2010, he was seen as almost “nothing” compared to gifted skaters like Zhou Yang and Fan Kexin, as his coaches said at the time. Their comments made him quite upset. But as the saying goes, “Winners never quit and quitters never win”. Wu didn’t want to give up and worked as hard as he could. He practiced skating all year round. He even didn’t return to his hometown for the holidays for 10 years. “I believe in myself,” he told the media after his match at the Olympics.

1What does the underlined word “flawless” mean?

A. Ordinary B. Valuable C. Perfect D. Difficult

2According to the passage, which of the following is RIGHT?

A. Wu won a gold medal at the Sochi Olympic Winter Games four years ago.

B. Wu broke the world record with a time of 39.584 seconds and made history.

C. Wu’s coaches placed great hope on him when he joined the national team.

D. Chinese skaters in women’s 500 metres, 3000-metre relay took home the gold.

3What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?

A. The national team and coaches regarded Wu as a talented skater all the way.

B. Wu kept on practicing skating all year round even in the holidays for 10 years.

C. Zhou Yang and Fan Kexin were more and more hard-working on skating than Wu Dajing.
