Tu Youyou, an 84-year-old female(女性)scientist, became the first Chinese to win a Nobel Prize in science on Oct 5. Before that, she ever won the 2011 Lasker Award for finding out artemisinin (Qinghaosu), which saved millions of lives. She was grateful(感激的)for the Lasker prize, but said, “It is just a scientist’ duty. I will go on fighting for the health of all humans.”

Tu kept her work in the 1960s and 1970s. In that age, Malaria (疟疾) could took away people’s health. Scientists all over the world had already tried over 240, 000 times but failed. Tu Youyou, a member of the Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Beijing, began to study Chinese herbs.

Jolly Joe always arrived at my neighborhood at exactly half past noon. The clang (叮当声) of the bell on his red and black truck was then the sweetest sound in the world. Brightly colored stickers advertising his amazing kinds of treats could be found on all sides of his truck. The whole neighborhood would magically come to life.

Holding a nickel (五分镍币), I’d run to the back of the vehicle, where children were already gathering. Jolly Joe would jump out of his truck, the sun shining on his hair. He was an older man, short and round, with a pleasant face and a welcoming smile.

I don’t know how, but he knew us all by name, as well as which treats we preferred. My favorite was the Buried Treasure. By eating all the ice cream, you’d discover the treasure inside: a lion, a dog or even a funny clown — printed onto a plastic stick.

When it was finally my turn, he’d put his arm deep inside one of the boxes, and pause (停顿) for a moment, a puzzled look crossing his face. Then, suddenly, he’d pull it out: the Buried Treasure! I couldn’t wait to enjoy the cool, sweet ice cream.

As quickly as he arrived, it was time for Jolly Joe to go, leaving behind laughing, excited children with sticky hands and faces. Soon the sound of his clanging bell would slowly disappear in the distance.

I always hated to see Jolly Joe go, because I knew the rest of the day would be as hot and boring as before. But I took some comfort in knowing that the next day he’d come round the corner at half past noon and once again spread his magic.

1.Jolly Joe was liked mostly by _____.

A. childrenB. passengersC. advertisersD. drivers

2.Why did the author like the Buried Treasure best?

A. It gave great pleasure to his pet.

B. It was the cheapest of all the treats.

C. It contained something very interesting.

D. It was the most delicious of all the treats.

3.Which of the following can best describe Jolly Joe?

A. Dishonest and tricky.

B. Wealthy and kind.

C. Brave and hard-working.

D. Happy and humorous.

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. Lost treasure found at last

B. A clanging bell in the distance

C. Ice cream man spreads frozen magic

D. My friendship with an ice cream man
