26、   The Curiosity Detector was never fully sterilized before it landed on Mar. And there's been debate whether the rover drill might pollute certain subsurface areas thought to potentially give birth to life. But it turns out the detector may not need to drive somewhere to pollute that spot with Earth's micro-livings. Because if there are any tiny earth livings on the detector, the strong winds on Mars might be able to spread them around the Red Planet instead.

“Wind storms are very common on Mars. So you have one point of pollution, and given the proper conditions, you could spread whatever you were carrying there to distant places." Said Armando Azua-Bustos, a research scientist at the Center for Astrobiology at the Superior Council of Scientific Research in Spain.

Azua-Bustos is now more certain that such spread might be possible because of an experiment his team carried out in Chile's Atacama Desert-the conditions of which are greatly similar to the Mars'. There, his team placed containers along two paths cutting from the coast into the driest parts of the Atacama. One path was 30 miles long; the other 40 miles long. They waited for winds to deliver coastal dust to the containers. Then they grew whatever landed.

On both paths, they found amounts of bacteria species, which suggests that micro-livings are indeed able to fly over the driest and most sun-shined desert on Earth in just a few hours—and arrive unharmed. The details are in the journal Scientific Reports.

The researchers say wind could therefore be a way to easily pollute another planet with Earth micro-livings if spacecraft aren't sterilized—or a way for Martian life in once-fertile areas to give birth to others by lying on dust in the wind.

【1】Why is there debate over the Curiosity Rover?

A．Because it can't drive anywhere by itself without wind.

B．Because its drill may damage the surface of Mars.

C．Because it has been polluted before it landed on Mars.

D．Because it may destroy the potential environment of life on Mars with Earth's micro-livings.

【2】How did Azua-Bustos' team find supportive evidence for his opinion?

A．They studied the data of wind storms about Mars.

B．They did an experiment under the similar conditions of Mars.

C．They found a large quantity of bacteria on Mars.

D．They used the details in the journal Scientific Reports.

【3】According to Azua-Bustos, Earth's micro-livings on Mars may be spread mainly by________.

A．the detector's drill

B．two paths

C．strong wind

D．driving around

【4】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A．The conditions on Mars are similar to those on Earth.

B．The strong wind on Mars can pollute the micro-livings in the subsurface area.

C．All spacecrafts must be sterilized before they are launched into space.

D．Chile's Atacana Desert is one of the driest and most sun-shined desert on Earth.

27、Many people have difficulty in getting up in the morning. This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.

During the hours when you work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak (顶峰). For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar words as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation for the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.

You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. If so, staying up later than you want to may counteract your cycle in some way. If our energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.

Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a comfortable yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed for a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.

【1】Dr. Kleitman explains that a person is difficult to get up in the morning probably because of

A．his own laziness

B．his own energy cycle

C．his own habit

D．his bad rest at night

【2】According to the passage, people’s energy peak may come

A．in the morning

B．in the evening

C．in the afternoon

D．at different hours

【3】What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to?

A．The life.

B．The good habit.

C．The energy cycle.

D．The change.

【4】If the finding is true, it’s best to

A．do your work at the energy peak

B．manage to control your temper

C．work at the bottom of energy cycle

D．manage to keep you clean all day

28、   Having been a middle school teacher for 25 years, I like to think that I've taught students the importance of good citizenship. But regardless of what I like to think, it seems that my students teach me.

One morning, I was running so late that by the time I reached the last crossing before my school, traffic was at a standstill. What was really exasperating was that I could see the school. Had I been able to climb out of my car and walk, I might have arrived on time.

Up ahead, the turn lane (车道) into the school's parking lot was empty. If I could just turn to the right, the only thing between me and the turn lane was a large field. It was rocky, and the grass was quite tall. But as I sat in my motionless car and saw all those car lights flashing (闪烁) at me, I heard that field call to me. I nosed the car out of the line of traffic and headed for that open land. Evidently there was a law. And evidently I had broken it. An officer came up to my open window, and I handed him my license (执照) without even looking at him.

He asked, "Ma'am? What's going on? "

I said, "Well, I overslept, and... I just wanted to get to school. I have to..."

"So you're a teacher?" he interrupted.

"Yes, I try...and… just needed to be on time."

I heard the police officer say it again: "You wanted to be on time because you're a good teacher."

At that point he paused before adding, "You were when I had you."

And then I did look at him. I read the name badge (名字牌) on his chest. A former seventh-grade student of mine.

He gave me a warning—not too dissimilar from the ones I'd given him years ago—and sent me on my way. And at last I arrived at my classroom, already schooled once that morning and wondering what I would learn next.

【1】What does the underlined word "exasperating" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．Exciting.

B．Satisfying.

C．Surprising.

D．Discouraging.

【2】What did the author do when she was stuck in traffic?

A．She called the police to help her.

B．She took a shortcut to avoid traffic.

C．She left her car and walked to school.

D．She waited patiently in her car all along.

【3】What did the police officer do?

A．He guided the author out of the traffic.

B．He took the author to the police station.

C．He warned the author about breaking the rules.

D．He turned a blind eye to the author's behavior.

【4】What can we learn about the author?

A．She learned a lesson from her student.

B．She didn't recognize the police officer at all.

C．She wasn't allowed to leave by the police officer.

D．She asked the police officer to bend the rules for her.

29、   Your child is unique, but what all children have in common is natural curiosity and an ability to learn they are born with. Our brains are active all the time, and a baby’s brain is the busiest of all. Research has shown that babies begin to understand language about twice as fast as they actually speak it. By showing children other languages at an early age, you are giving them the opportunity to make use of their natural ability to hear and recognize between the sounds of other languages, and their ability to make sense of what they are hearing.

Communication is something that children do to help them achieve something else, and they are unaware of the large amount of learning taking place. They take everything in through their senses, making connections between what they hear, see, smell, taste and touch. As long as we provide the right conditions, their learning and development will take place in a natural way.

In your child’s early years, the emotional environment is just as important as the physical environment. Children learn when they feel safe, happy, valued and listened to. This is central to any learning experience in a child’s early years, including learning an additional language. Your child has a trial-and-error approach to its development, and making mistakes is a valuable part of the learning process. When children learn an additional language at an early age, they get the benefits of experimenting with that language as a natural part of their development. Their progress isn’t prevented by a fear of getting it wrong, and very young children are simply working their way towards getting it right.

The long-term benefits of learning another language go beyond being able to communicate with others. Studies suggest that children learning an additional language tend to score better on standardized tests because learning languages develops listening, observation, problem-solving and critical (批判性的) thinking skills. These are skills that are of life-long benefit, both personally and professionally. Encouraging in children a love of language at an early age prepares them well for school and for life.

【1】What do we know about Children according to Paragraph 1?

A.Children are busy playing.

B.Children are born to speak.

C.Children are good at speaking native language.

D.Children have a better ability to learn other languages.

【2】While learning a language, children __________.

A.speak to themselves B.need to have language classes

C.make use of their different senses D.notice how much they have learned

【3】Children learn when they __________.

A.are in bad emotion B.do not make mistakes

C.learn from their mistakes D.are taught by their teachers

【4】In fact learning another language helps children to _________.

A.take more tests

B.have a good time

C.encourage themselves

D.develop life-long skills
