21、An infectious disease is a disease that is caused by the invasion of a host by pathogens（病原体）whose activities harm the host’s tissues and can be spread to other individuals.

Microorganisms（微生物）capable of causing disease are called pathogens. A true pathogen is an infectious agent that causes disease in any possible host. The terms “infection” and “disease” are quite different. In order to cause disease, pathogens must be able to enter the host body, stick to specific host cells, invade and multiply and do damage to host tissues.

Pathogens may be spread through either direct or indirect contact. Direct contact occurs when an individual is infected by contact with the infection source. It also includes taking in the infectious droplets released by sneezing or coughing. Indirect contact occurs when a pathogen can survive the environment outside its host for a long period of time. So lifeless objects that are polluted by direct contact with the infection source may be the indirect contact for easily infected group.

Public health measures typically involve killing the pathogen from its source or from its route of spread. Those measures include ensuring a safe water supply, effectively treating waste water, and initiating animal control and vaccination（疫苗）programs, etc. Personally, the first line of defense is to keep pathogen at bay by following good personal hygiene（卫生）habits. Prevent infection before it begins and avoid spreading it to others with some easy measures, such as washing hands, getting vaccinated and so on.

Man never stops fighting against all kinds of infectious diseases. But in the past two decades at least a dozen “new” disease have been identified, and traditional diseases that appeared to be “on their way out” are re-emerging. Globally, infectious diseases remain the leading cause of death. Clearly, the ballet has not been won. Nevertheless, it is increasingly difficult for most of us to deny the claims of science. We are continually presented with great amounts of relevant scientific and medical knowledge, which encourages us to take more responsibility for our own health.

【1】What’s the main idea of paragraph2?

A．Origin of true pathogens.

B．Strategies for avoiding tissue damage.

C．Nature of infectious diseases.

D．Differences between infection and disease.

【2】What is likely to cause disease spread through indirect contact?

A．Breathing in tiny drops from coughing

B．Embracing an infected person.

C．Getting bitten by an infected cat.

D．Using umbrella a sick man used.

【3】What does the underlined phrase “at bay” in paragragh 4 mean?

A．At risk.

B．Stay away.

C．Under control.

D．Within reach.

【4】What can we infer about the last paragraph?

A．Science plays an important in defeating infectious diseases.

B．Man is at a loss about infectious diseases.

C．Traditional infectious diseases are dying out.

D．The battle against infectious diseases is in vain.

22、The first time I saw Carlos I would never have believed he was going to change my life. I had my arms full of books and I was tearing into the classroom when I ran into something solid. It was Carlos.

“My, you’re tall,” he said.

Of course, the class began to laugh. Angry, I walked to my seat without a word.

I glanced back to see if Reed Harrington was laughing with the rest. That would be the last straw. But Reed was studying chemistry and did not seem to be aware of anything else. I didn’t know why I considered Reed my friend. Maybe just because he was a good two inches taller than I. Anyway, every time I blew out my birthday candles and made a wish, it was for a date with Reed Harrington. “Take that seat,” Mr. McCarthy told the proud newcomer Carlos, pointing to the only empty one, in the back of the room.

Carlos smiled broadly. “But I need a couple of dictionaries.” Again the class laughed, but now they were laughing with Carlos, not at him. He had been here only 10 minutes and already he had them on his side.

It was the school elections that made me think of Carlos again. Reed Harrington was voted president and Carlos vice president. “How come?” I kept asking myself. “How come this shrimp(虾) who’s only been in town for a little over a month gets to be so popular.”

So on that morning, I stopped Carlos and said, “It doesn’t seem to bother you—being short.” He looked up at me. “Of course I mind being short. But there isn’t anything I can do about it. When I realized I was going to have to spend my life in this undersized skin, I just decided to make the best of it and concentrate on being myself.” “You seem to get along great,” I admitted. “But what about me? Nobody wants to date a girl taller than he is.” “The trouble with you is you’re afraid to be yourself. You’re smart. And you could be pretty. In fact, you might be more than pretty.” I felt myself turning red...

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

【4】What’s the best title of the passage?

A．A girl and a boy.

D．A change in my life.

23、No doubt there are ups and downs in life. Whatever the situation is, you shouldn’t lose your joy of life. Life is for a limited time only and no one knows how long he/she will live, so why do you waste your time in worrying about the things that are beyond your control? Be happy, and enjoy your life unconditionally (无条件地).

You enjoy good days but you also need to learn how to enjoy bad days, even enjoy your pain. In 2016 I suffered a sudden heart attack. My colleagues called an ambulance (救护车) and I was taken to hospital with much pain in my chest. Before reaching hospital, I was totally exhausted with pain and was going to lose control of my emotions. Then the doctor in the ambulance said, “Don’t worry; you are in safe hands.” His words took away all my pain because I started realizing that it was no time to worry about pain and it’s time to be happy that my life was safe. At that time, I learnt an important lesson that in pain there is a hidden joy and we must see the bright side and enjoy pain.

You not only enjoy success but you also need to learn to enjoy failure. Celebrating failure will raise your morale and make you more powerful and determined to achieve success. We all make mistakes in life, but only the courageous (勇敢的) people laugh at their mistakes and then they reach success without any spiritual burden (负担). A person who learns from mistakes and knows how to turn the bad situation into his/her favor (有利条件) is the most intelligent person and really enjoys his/her life.

【1】What does the author mainly tell us in the first paragraph?

A．Life is full of ups and downs.

B．People’s lives only last a limited period.

C．We should enjoy our life unconditionally.

D．Bad situations can be changed into good ones.

【2】Why did the author still feel happy when experiencing much pain?

A．His colleagues were always with him.

B．He could be looked after by his parents.

C．He planned to enjoy the last days in life.

D．His doctor made him realize the value of being alive.

【3】The underlined word “morale” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “______”.

A．talent

B．confidence

C．pleasure

D．inspiration

【4】The author thinks that the wisest person ______.

A．never laughs at others

B．has strong determination

C．is ready to do others a favor

D．is good at learning from mistakes

24、Science museums are amazing. You can learn so much at a science museum if you live close enough to one to visit on family outings or school trips. In fact, 12 of the 20 most visited museums in the U. S. are science museums according to USA Today.

“If you don’t live in or near a large city, you may not get a chance to visit a science museum or any museum. So, while the content is vitally important, their impact is limited. There just aren’t enough science museums,” said Charles Philipp, one of the founders of MICRO, “and with the high costs required to run conventional museums, it’s unlikely that we’ll be seeing a bunch of new traditional science museums appearing all over the country anytime soon.”

Philipp and his partner Amanda Schochet decided to reinvent science museums by micro-sizing them. They launched MICRO, a nonprofit organization that builds tiny six-foot-tall — about the size of a typical vending machine (自动售卖机) — science museums that are portable and replicable(可复制的). The plan is to engage people of all ages with science and to do it completely free in places where people are, such as waiting rooms of hospitals, libraries, airports, and even shopping malls.

To make the museums a reality, they gathered a team of engineers, storytellers, and designers. MICRO’s museums are site tested and lasting. Each of the micro museums explores a scientific topic. For example, the Smallest Mollusk Museum explores the world of mollusks(软体动物) and is actually the only museum devoted only to mollusks; the Perpetual Motion Museum focuses on physics and engineering. New museums are planned to explore fun topics in the sciences.

“Our goal is that within five years, we will actually be the most visited museums in the country,” Schochet said, “Our museums are very small, but our dreams for this are huge.” Hopefully one will come to a neighborhood near you soon.

【1】What did Charles Philipp say about traditional science museums?

A．They are limited in content.

B．They are expensive to manage.

C．They are located far from urban areas.

D．They are springing up all over the U. S..

【2】What is MICRO aimed at?

A．Helping the public get access to mollusks.

B．Making visits to science museums affordable.

C．Building vending machines in science museums.

D．Making science museums easily accessible to more people.

【3】Why are the two museums mentioned in paragraph 4?

A．To explain every micro museum has a different theme.

B．To show they are the most visited museums in the U. S..

C．To stress they are the wisdom of people from all walks of life.

D．To indicate every micro museum tends to have a different size.

【4】What would be the best title for this text?

A．Traditional museums remain irreplaceable

B．Science museums regain their popularity

C．Tiny science museums have big ideas

D．Popular science museums meet a big challenge
