21、   When Jack Andraka was 15 years old, he created a new diagnostic test for pancreatic cancer. Jack's test is 28 times faster, 26,000 times less expensive and over 100 times more sensitive than the current diagnostic tests. His test earned him first prize at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, which is like the Olympics of science fairs.

It was after a close family friend died of pancreatic cancer that Jack Andraka became interested in finding a better early-detection diagnostic test. Jack said the solution came to him during his high school biology class. He was secretly reading an article about nanotubes while the teacher was talking about antibodies. Jack said the two ideas came together in his head, and he thought he could combine what the teacher was saying with what he knew about nanotubes to create an early detection test for pancreatic cancer.

Jack Andraka used what he found through Google searches and free online science journals to develop a plan and a budget. Jack contacted about 200 people including researchers at Johns Hopkins University and the National Institutes of Health with a proposal to work in their labs. He got 199 rejections before he finally got an acceptance from Dr. Anirban Maitra, Professor of Oncology at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Jack worked after school every day, on weekends and over holidays at Maitra's lab until he developed his test.

So, think about Jack Andraka the next time you hear that something can't be done. Or, if you receive numerous rejections (close to 200 in Jack Andraka's case) or you're simply hesitating to give one of your ideas a shot. Also, keep in mind that you don't necessarily need a giant team, billions of dollars in resources or even more than 15 years of life experience to do something amazing.

【1】Why did Jack decide to work on the diagnostic test?

A.The existing test was not widely used.

B.He wanted to win a prize in a science fair.

C.A family friend died of pancreatic cancer.

D.He got inspired in his high school biology class.

【2】How did Jack work out the test?

A.By cooperating with Google.

B.By doing experiments in the lab.

C.By conducting researches online.

D.By contacting about 200 people.

【3】In which section of a newspaper can this article appear?

A.Life Style & Trends

B.Hospitals & ICUs

C.Inspirational Stories

D.Interesting Discoveries

22、   94-year-old Suttie Economy plans to be buried in what looks like a pack of Juicy Fruit gum (口香糖) when he dies.

Economy’s love affair with Juicy Fruit goes back to his days in the service, when chewing gum producer Wrigley sent its products to troops overseas. Since then, Economy has become something of a self-appointed goodwill ambassador for the brand.

Sammy Oakey, president of Oakey’s Funeral Service and Economy have a friendship that goes back 45 years. After Economy recently suffered heart attacks, he approached his longtime friend with a request: When his time came, he wanted to be buried in a coffin (棺材) painted to resemble his trademark gum. Oakey immediately called Wrigley’s but they gave Oakey’s request a thumbs-down.

Actually, unusual burial requests are nothing new. Comic book author Mark Gruenwald’s ashes were mixed with ink that was used into a first-edition printing of Squadron Supreme. Gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson’s ashes were shot out, while James Doohan, known to fans as Star Trek’s “Scotty”, had his remains sent into space.

Knowing how important the chewing-gum-themed coffin was to Economy, Oakey didn’t give up the fight. He managed to contact Mars Wrigley’s top boss.

Happily for all concerned, Oakey renewed his request to the powers that be and met with success. In an e-mail from the company president, he was told the company would go along with whatever the family wanted to do.

Not only did the gum company give their biggest fan’s final gift, they also sent Economy’s family 250 packs of Juicy Fruit as a thank you for his lifelong brand love.

Economy has actually taken a turn for the better. We don’t know whether his improved condition is due to the “Juicy Fruit” effect, but if there’s one thing we’ve learned from this story, it’s if you think outside the box —and ask nicely —sometimes you can take it with you.

【1】How did Wrigley’s respond to Oakey’s request at first?

A.They agreed to it.

B.They ignored it.

C.They turned it down.

D.They hesitated.

【2】What does the author think of Economy?

A.Honest.

B.Faithful.

C.Brave.

D.Generous.

【3】What is the purpose of Paragraph 4?

A.To point out green burial has a long history.

B.To prove many people follow Economy’s suit.

C.To explain green burial is becoming a tendency.

D.To show Economy isn’t the first to have a strange burial idea.

【4】What is the text about?

A.An unusual wish.

B.A strange old man.

C.A lifelong friendship.

D.A famous gum brand.

23、   A new study researched how bad technology affected employees' mental health. The research involved experiments in which brainwaves were measured as people were put through a series of bad technology experiences. The experiments involved adults of many ages with different levels of computer skills. Subjects were tested with simple computer problems, like troubled sign-in operations. Others dealt with slow-speed connections to the Internet. Still others experienced system crashes.

“The moment people started using bad technology, we saw a doubling of their levels of stress,” said Olivier Oullier, president of EMOTIV, which is a technology company. “I was a bit surprised by that, because you rarely see those levels going so high,” he said. The experiments showed that technology related stress had a lasting effect, he added.

In addition to tech failures affecting the mental health of employees, the problems can also affect a company's business, the research found. Such problems can reduce productivity, especially that of younger workers, who rely heavily on technology to work. The research showed a thirty percent production drop among study subjects under age 40. And lower productivity in turn increased their stress levels.

As stressful as the tech problems were for those in the study, Oullier said, such effects were likely to be even more severe in the real world. He said the subjects knew they were involved in an experiment so they may not have been as personally affected by the results.

As Oullier has pointed out, another issue is that many employees are working remotely and this can also add to tech difficulties. In an office, computer support helpers are usually available to help workers solve tech problems. But working from a kitchen or home office, employees are often on their own. When they face more tech problems, they get more stressed.

“When you're stuck at home and all you have is a computer provided by your employer, you might not have access to tech support,” Oullier said. “That's why it's so important when you re remote to have technology that works.”

【1】What did researchers do to all subjects in the experiment?

A.They got them exposed to tech failures.

B.They asked them to gain computer skills.

C.They required them to calm others down.

D.They tested them with complex problems.

【2】Why are young employees affected more severely by tech failures?

A.They have a preference for work from home offices.

B.They have heavier dependence on technology at work.

C.They play an important role in a company's tech business.

D.They are not as skilled and experienced as old employees.

【3】Which of the following statements does Olivier Oullier agree to?

A.Remote work leads to lower productivity.

B.Tech- related stress has a temporary effect.

C.Lack of tech support adds to stress levels.

D.Access to technology ensures good health.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A.Bad Technology Has Little to Do With Productivity.

B.Tech Failures Can Make Employees More Stressed.

C.Working Remotely Can Lead to Poor Mental Health.

D.Computer Skills Are Particularly Necessary at Work.

24、My daughter Kelly is a cautious person. She needs to warm up to situations,who is hesitant to try new things. When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants, “Girls rule, boys drool.” But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous.

This has been challenging for me at times. “Shy” is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me. But this has been a year of firsts for my girl that has filled her with a new sense of confidence. This year she moved to lap lane in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team. This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. And this year she completed her first kids’ triathlon (三项全能) .

On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coming soon and my son’s birthday party later in the day, we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon. We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her, we got all the equipment she’d need, and we kept talking about the race. But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little harder and told me she loved me a few too many times. She was nervous but trying to keep it together.

And then it was her turn. From the second she jumped into the water, my heart soared. My daughter transformed into the most confident human being I had ever seen. She dominated(主宰) that swim, crushed that bike ride and ran to the finish with the biggest smile on her face.

I can honestly say that I never felt so proud of someone in my entire life. It wasn’t because she did

a sport or anything like that. It was because she was afraid of something and conquered(克服) that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn’t seen before.

All day I would find myself just looking over at her and smiling. She might be wearing the finalist medal but I felt like I won that day. I won the chance to see my girl shine.

Shine on, sweet baby.

Almost all the possessions had been sold to buy food and clothing for the family. At last, nothing was left but the pet lamb, Daisy. At the thought of parting with the little creature, Mrs. Grant’s felt sad because the children loved it very much. Having struggled hard, she had to make up her mind to sell the lamb. But she could not ask any child to go for the butcher. Finally, she went herself with a heavy heart, dragging her leaden feet, and bargained with the butcher for the sale of Daisy.

While the children were all playing with the lamb, the butcher and his boy came to the door. “ You see I am here for the lamb, ” said the butcher in a loud voice. Hearing this, one child ran to her mother’s side, and asked what was happening in alarm. Mrs. Grant gently pushed the child aside, bent down and was about to tell the truth.

“That’s my lamb now, Charlie! ” said the butcher’s boy in a playful tone, going up to Daisy with a rope in his hand.

“No, it is not your lamb. It is ours! ” said Charlie, placing himself in front of it.

But the boy, pushing him aside, threw a rope round Daisy’s neck, and began to drag the little creature away. The poor lamb bleated (咩咩叫) very sadly. The cry of grief which fell upon the mother’s ears was too much for her, and her heart sank within her. In a moment, begging with tearful eyes, the children were all around their mother with voices choking with sobs for their little pet.

“Please tell your boy to stop a moment, ” she said in husky tones to the butcher. The boy, at a word from the butcher, stopped dragging the lamb, and the little creature stopped its bleating.

In a trembling voice, Mrs. Grant explained to them how badly off they were after their father died. She also added that the kind butcher had given the money for Daisy. With this money, she could buy her children bread to eat.

注意:1.续写词数应为150词左右;
