Li Hua

In 1854, Louis Pasteur assumed the duties of a professor at a university in France. Meanwhile, he conducted studies to find out what caused milk and other drinks containing alcohol to become sour. His breakthrough came when he discovered that the souring was caused by bacteria in the liquid. He then developed a process through which the bacteria could be removed by boiling the liquid and then cooling it. This method, called pasteurization in his honor, became widespread.

At that time, silk producers were suffering because the eggs of the worms that made the silk were dying from an unknown disease. Pasteur discovered the bacteria that were killing the eggs and developed a method to kill the germs.

Pasteur next turned his attention to rabies, a deadly disease that animals transferred to humans. Many people thought Pasteur was wasting his time, but Pasteur ignored their doubts and continued his efforts to find a cure for rabies. One of his patients was a sick boy, whose mother had turned to Pasteur for help. Pasteur told the mother that he had invented a vaccine that was strong enough to kill the invisible enemy. He said that he would use a needle to inject the vaccine into the boy. The vaccine would then fight the germs, just like a soldier fights in a war.

That boy was the first person to receive the vaccine, and the treatment was a success. After that, no one had to be afraid of rabies anymore. People who had laughed at him before, now respected him. Pasteur had believed in himself and had not given up. He had won the battle with the enemy.

21. Pasteur helped the ________ industry with the method named after him.

   A. construction                           B. energy                           C. beer                       D. service

22. Why does Pasteur compare his rabies treatment with soldiers?

   A. To encourage people to pity the man.                      

B. To imply that the vaccine was strong.

   C. To express his feelings about wars.                         

D. To show that the germs could be useful.

23. What does the passage mainly talk about?

   A. The teaching techniques that Pasteur employed.

   B. Pasteur’s interest in a key manufacturing process.

   C. Pasteur’s psychological issues and their treatment.

   D. The advances that Pasteur achieved in his field.

Do you think studying in a different country is something that sounds very exciting and great fun? Certainly, it is a new experience, one that brings the opportunity(机会) to discover amazing things and a feeling of freedom. But do remember that there are also some challenges you will meet, for your views may disagree with the different beliefs, norms(社会准则), values and traditions of different countries. This is called “culture shock”. The following are the stages of adjusting.

The first stage is called ”the honeymoon”, where you are excited about living in a different place, and everything seems to be fantastic.

Eventually, however, the second stage of culture shock appears, “the hostility stage”. You begin to notice that not everything that seemed so wonderful initially is now awful, making you feel distressed and tired. Usually at this point, you use some defense mechanisms(机制) to help you cope(应付) and to protect yourself against the effects of culture shock. Two of them are “repression”, which happens when you pretend that everything is acceptable and that nothing bothers you, and “regression”, when you start to act like a child, sometimes careless and irresponsible. The third kind is “isolation”. You don’t want to communicate with anybody, cutting yourself off the world. The last type is “rejection”, where you think you don’t need anybody, feeling you are coping fine alone.

After you deal with your hostile feelings, next comes the stage, “recovery”, when you begin to see things of a different culture you can learn to appreciate.

The last stage is “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good because you are able to understand the new culture.

Culture shock is not something you can avoid in a foreign country. Actually, you learn how to interact with other people, and you learn a considerable amount about life in a new culture. Eventually, you learn more-about yourself.

8. How many stages of culture shock does the text mention?

A. 4.

B. 6.

C. 7.

D. 8.

9. Which mechanism does a person apply if he pretends to accept everything in a new culture?

A. Repression.

D. Rejection.

10. What’s the writer’s attitude towards culture shock?

A. Serious.

Imagine loving someone so much that you’d swim more than 5,000 miles to see him or her. Dindim manages to swim that far every year to 41 his friend John.

    This is 42, not only because of the love between the two friends, but because Dindim is 43 a penguin.

    John found Dindim covered in oil, hardly 44 on a beach near his home. He picked him up, cleaned him off and brought him to his house where he 45 him and got him healthy again. John named him Dindim.

    After a week, he 46 the penguin back to the beach and tried to release him, 47 Dindim refused to leave John. They 48 together for the next eleven months. Then, Dindim disappeared. 49, John thought he’d never see his friend again.

    But just a few months 50 , Dindim was back. He found John on the beach, and followed him home. Each year, he 51 for four months to live with other penguins. For the other eight months, he lives with John.

    John says that each time they meet again, Dindim seems 52 to see him. He says he loves the penguin as if he were his own 53. He feels certain that Dindim loves him in the 54 way.

    Ecologist Carl Safina says that animals can and do love humans. He writes and speaks a lot about animals and their 55. According to Carl, it’s obvious that animals feel love for humans. What’s less obvious is whether or not human love animals enough to 56 them. Hundreds of thousands of animals are 57 by the same oil that covered Dindim when John found him. Fifty percent of 58 has disappeared in the last 40 years because of humans 59 their habitats. Scientists say we’re in a new mass extinction period. In the next two 60, they predict that we’ll lose 75 percent of the remaining species on earth.

Scientists are debating how to limit their newly­discovered power to change genetic structure(结构). Scientists already modify the genes(基因) of farm animals and agricultural plants to make them more productive or stronger. But now they can also change genes in wild animals and plants. These genes would continue into later generations. For example, it may be possible for scientists to remove from existence the kind of mosquitoes, small flying insects, that carry the Zika virus. They might also be able to permanently remove species(物种) of plants and animals that are damaging to other species.

In a report published last week, the U．S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine (NAS) said it supports continued research on this kind of gene control. But it warned that it is not possible to know what will happen when these changed plants and animals are released(释放) into the wild.

Sixteen biologists, ethicists(伦理学家) and policymakers are on an NAS committee that is examining the issue. They say that there is value to the new technology. But, they say, there is not enough evidence to support the release of modified organisms(生物体) from the laboratory into nature.

Many people would support stopping mosquitoes and rats from carrying diseases. But scientists say we must understand the possible scientific, ethical, legal and social results of such action before we decide whether to take it. Gene modification is spread through reproduction(繁殖)．

Changed genes will continue to spread as long as an animal or plant continues to reproduce. They cannot be limited to a farm or kept within a country's borders. Scientists are wondering what may happen if a modified organism mates with another species. They are not yet sure how the modified genes would affect the other species. It is possible that those genes could harm those creatures or even lead to their disappearance from our planet.

34. What possible advantage does gene control in wild animals and plants have?

A. Changing the Zika virus permanently.

B. Getting rid of damaging species forever.

C. Having the changed genes in their next generations.

D. Making all the species more productive and stronger.

35. As for genetically changed wild animals and plants, what are scientists worried about?

A. They may become weaker or die out.

B. They may be more productive than before.

C. They may cause damage to their living habitat.

D. Their genes may spread to later generations.

36. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Scientists are certain what exact results gene modification leads to.

B. Gene modification can benefit some farm animals and agricultural plants.

C. Scientists won't modify any genes before they make the final decision.

D. Gene modification will be encouraged in more creatures in the near future.

37. The article is mainly intended to ________．

A. appeal against research on gene control  B. show how to change genetic structure

C. inform us of power and danger of gene control  D. give the reason why gene modification is necessary

Once upon a time a very strong woodcutter asked for a job in a timber merchant, and he got it. The pay was___51___(real) good and so were the work conditions. For that reason, the woodcutter was determined to do___52___he) best. His boss gave him an axe（斧头）and showed him the area（地区）, ___53___he was supposed to work. The first day, the woodcutter___54___(bring) 18 trees. “Congratulations,” the boss said. “Go on that way”. Very___55___(motivate) by the boss's words, the woodcutter tried harder the next day, ___56___he could only bring 15 trees. The third day he tried even harder. But he could only bring 10 trees. Day after day he was bringing fewer and____57____ (few) trees. “I must be losing my ___58___(strong), ” the woodcutter thought. He went to the boss and apologized, ___59___(say) that he could not understand what was going on. “When was the___60___time you sharpened your axe? ” the boss asked. “Sharpen? I had no time to sharpen my axe. I have been very busy trying to cut trees. ”

Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations．They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago．   36     

    The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly．Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses．     37     So they are called "diseases of civilization"．Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.

    Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none．    38       However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.

    Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones．They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits．They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains．     39     We eat six times more salt than our ancestors．We eat more sugar．We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.

         40     But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.

    A．Stone Age people lived a simple life.

    B．These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.

    C．In that case, they would live much healthier.

    D．Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.

    E．But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.

    F．People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.

    G．Modern people used to suffer from "diseases of civilization".

I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight（货物）yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head. Now I am thirty-two. I can still   41  ___ the brightness of sunshine. It would be   42  ___ to see again, but a   43  _____ can do strange things to people. I don’t mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes. I simply mean that the   44  ___ of them made me   45  __ the more what I had.

Life, I believe, asks a continuous series of adjustments to reality. The more quickly a person is able to make these adjustments, the more   46  ___ his own private world becomes. The adjustment is never   47  __. I was totally confused and afraid. But I was lucky. My parents and my teachers saw something in me—the   48  _____ to live—which I didn’t see, and they made me want to   49  ___ against blindness.

The hardest   50  ___ I had to learn was to believe in myself. I am not talking about simply the kind of   51  ___ that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone. That is part of it. But I mean something bigger than that: the confidence that I am, despite being imperfect, a real,   52  ___ person; that there is a special place where I can make myself fit.

It took me years to discover and   53  __ this confidence. It had to start with the simplest things. Once a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt. “I can’t use this.” I said. “Take it with you,” he   54  _____me, “and roll it around.” The words   55  __ in my head. “Roll it around!” By rolling the ball I could hear where it went. This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought   56  _: playing baseball. At Philadelphia’s Overbrook School for the Blind I   57  ___ a successful variation of baseball and I called it ground ball.

All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time. I had to be clear about my   58  __. It was no good trying for something that I knew at the start was wildly out of reach   59  __ that only invited the bitterness of failure. I would   60  ___sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.

That was when my son was 6 years old. My son is now 22 but whenever I look at him even as a grown man, I remember the small child with  41  .

Our cat was  42  to give birth.And like all young children,my son was very interested in the birth of the babies. During the following week, he never stopped  43  me for a chance to witness it. At last,I agreed.I answered all his questions and prepared him the best  44  he might not be shocked or frightened.

That  45  when my son arrived home,one baby cat had been born. He was so  46  at what he saw that he would put his hand on the mother cat’s stomach and feel the other babies  47  .When the mother cat began to  48  very loudly, it was clear that the second baby was on its way. My son  49  but never said a word. Then he asked me, “Mum, why does she cry so loudly when the baby comes?”I  50  that it was not a hurtful pain but a pain of great pleasure  51  the mother.

When the  52  of the third baby was coming by the crying of the mother cat, my son  53  hugged me with tears  54  his face, saying, “Mum, I’m sorry for the  55  I brought you to have me.”My heart almost stopped. With(n)  56  choice of words, I told him that his birth had brought me  57  but smiles, and that I would like to

  58  it 100 times.

Now my son is a grown man, but he always  59  that night, for it was on that night that he finally  60  what the word “love”meant.
