26、   James Harrison's entire view on life changed at a very young age. At the age of 14, the Australian teen had an operation during which lots of strangers gave blood to help him. Seeing that his life was saved by the kindness of others, James decided to "pay it forward". Four years later, in 1954, he started giving blood.

The doctors soon discovered that James had a very rare type of antibody（抗体）---the anti-D antibody——in his blood.

In fact, the anti-D antibody could be used to deal with a condition called rhesus disease. In this disease, a pregnant(怀孕的)woman’s body recognizes certain markers on her baby's blood cells(细胞)as foreign. The mother's body then starts making lots of antibodies that destroy her baby's red blood cells. This unwanted course can cause serious illnesses during pregnancy, probably resulting in the baby's death。But James's blood was used to create a treatment plan that could stop the mother's body from becoming prepared in this way.

James was the very first person to give blood to Australia's Anti — D Program. James won the title of "the man with the golden arm” because he has given blood for 1. 173 times. He gave blood every two weeks for 60 years. But no matter how many times he's given blood there's one thing that will never change. " Every time I give blood, I never look at my arm. I look elsewhere or at the nurses, maybe talk to them a bit. I can't stand the sight of blood, and I can't stand pain, ” James said.

The Australian Red Cross says that the man's blood has helped save over two million babies. It is no wonder that he was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for his great deeds.

【1】Why did James Harrison decide to give blood?

A.To earn a living.

B.To repay society.

C.To save a pregnant woman.

D.To help those who saved him.

【2】In which way is James Harrisons blood special?

A.It can improve pregnant women's health condition.

B.It can increase pregnant women's red blood cells.

C.It can help babies produce anti-D antibody.

D.It can stop babies dying from rhesus disease.

【3】How does James Harrison feel when giving blood?

A.Stressed and sad.

B.Proud and excited.

C.Frightened and nervous.

D.Thankful and encouraged.

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

A.A great hero who saves babies' lives

B.A disease affecting many unborn babies

C.A teenager who suffers from serious illness

D.A pioneer who finds ways to treat rhesus disease

27、When a child is told he is “uncool”, it can be very painful. He may say he doesn’t care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But these are simple ways to handle sadness by pretending it’s not there.

Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, “Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn’t matter!” Children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, “I’m going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”

If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child’s popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc.

There are things that parents can do at home, too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider “super”. When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.

What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own.

【1】A child who has been informed of being “uncool” may ______.

A．care nothing about it

B．pretend to get hurt very much

C．develop a sense of anger

D．do something uncool on purpose

【2】A teacher can help an unpopular child by ______.

A．seeing the child as the teacher’s favorite

B．offering the child chances to show his good qualities

C．forcing other children to make friends with the child

D．asking the child to do something for partners

【3】Which of the following is TRUE?

A．Inviting children’s friends to family activities is good for them to make friends.

B．It’s only teachers’ work to make children popular.

C．Parents should take their children out for picnic and shows more often.

D．Children don’t care others’ comments on them.

【4】Which is the best title of the text?

29、“Life is a practice of flexible performances,” said a Canadian college senior who won a competition for her feeling on the theme “How COVID-19 changed your senior year”. The competition, sponsored by a nonprofit organization, invited high school and college seniors to record a video that answers the question. Participants included 379 students in 49 countries, but it was the words of a 19-year-old film student that stole judges’ hearts in the competition.

A student at John Abbott College, April Judd used humor and creative words to describe what life was like moving back in with her family and missing the chance to say goodbye to all her friends at the arts college. Her inspiring message details how students can use this experience to their advantage and “shape the universe into the future they want to see”. The terrible disease actually drove April to find the good aspects in what our world is going through. “In the chaos that our world is experiencing right now, it’s really easy to get caught up in the negative,” the senior said. “We are all truly in this together and are all able to change and mature so as to make this world a better place.”

Patricia Cogley, host of the competition, said, “For many college and high school seniors in the graduating class, the disease has obviously changed their final year. But, true to our mission, the competition gave the young around the world the opportunity to showcase their creativity and ideas for a better future, despite this challenging and unprecedented (前所未有的) time.”

Not just seniors, anyone can draw inspiration from April’s uplifting message, which won hers $1,000. Especially take note of her conclusion, which was delivered with a smile; “We got this —or, at least we will — eventually!”

Why your Password May Not Be As Safe As It Seems?  Does “qaz2ws” strike you as a nice safe password? What about “adgjmptw”? An analysis has found them to be among the passwords that are most 【1】 used, which of course means they are not secure at all.

When ten million passwords were leaked on to the internet，they appeared to 【2】that attempts by internet security experts to make us improve our password strength had been successful, even if, in the specific case of the leaked passwords, they are also completely pointless.

While many of the passwords were still single words, such as “password”，there was also a clear attempt by many to make them harder to【3】. The problem was that people seemed to do so in the same way.

“Users are becoming slightly more 【4】what makes a password strong,” explained WP Engine, an internet company that performed the analysis. “For instance, adding a number or two at the end of a text phrase. That makes it better, right?”

But 【5】no. They found that almost half a million passwords did this and in 20 percent of those all people did was put the number “1” at the end.

Perhaps this is why some companies are now trying to move gradually beyond passwords. Yahoo! is giving users the option to 【6】 their mobile phone with an account, having a single use passwords texted to it each time they want to log on.

Although the serviced is voluntary, Dylan Casey an executive at Yahoo!，said that it was “the first step to【7】passwords”. He said it was a(n)【8】that it was increasingly hard for people to remember all the passwords they had. “I don’t think we, as an industry, have done a good enough job of putting ourselves in the shoes of the people using our products,” he said.

It would certainly be a more sensible strategy than same people’s improving upon “password” by using “password” or，“tran5p053d numb3r5 f0r 133tr3r5”.

“We are, for the most part，predictably【9】when it comes to choosing passwords, despite a decade of warnings from password strength checkers during sign-ups” said WP Engine. “We love taking a(n) 【10】, and so do password crackers.

A tiger at the Bronx Zoo in New York City has tested positive for the respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus, becoming the first known case of human-animal 【1】, the zoo's chief veterinarian said on Sunday.

Nadia, the 4-year-old Malayan tiger that tested positive, was 【2】 for the COVID-19 disease after 【3】 a dry cough along with three other tigers and three lions, the Wildlife Conservation Society, which manages the zoo, said in a statement.

All of the cats are expected to recover, it said. But officials believe this is a unique case because Nadia became sick after 【4】 to an asymptomatic zoo employee, Paul Calle, chief veterinarian at the Bronx Zoo, told Reuters.

Life is a series of choices and we can't always foresee the consequences.

Hary Saleem, an obese man with too much money and power, faced a choice. Outside his office waited his personal doctor, bringing him vital news about the only medicine that could save his life. On the other side of the world, one of his engineers waited for his decision on an important matter of business.

His secretary asked whether she could bring the doctor in. The billionaire businessman made his decision. “No, let the fool wait” shouted Saleem, angrily. “Business comes first.” Despite the health problem caused by his huge weight, he was still obsessed with making money. He raised a fat finger, and one of his staff hurried to switch on a large television set.

The screen flashed to life, and Saleem's engineer appeared. The man talked by satellite directly to his master although they were thousands of miles apart. “I's all ready to blow, Mr. Saleem,” he said. “Just say the word.”

His engineer was standing above Pakan Valley in South America. A few months ago, it had been a rainforest. Then Saleem's men had come, cutting down all the valuable plants and forcing the villagers to move out. Across the bottom of the valley, a dam had been built. This would provide power for the factories that Saleem planned to build in that area. The factories would bring him vast profits.

He saw no reason to delay. He ordered the engineer to press the button. And then a cloud of dust rose up, followed shortly by a dull explosion. A large river changed its course and water flooded into the doomed Pakan Valley.

“Good, that's that. Now, get that doctor in here,” he commanded. The doctor came in with a worried look and started to examine his wealthy patient. “You are doing very well, Mr. Saleem,” he said finally. “The new medicine is saving your life. The only difficulty is getting more of it.”

40、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Technology is forever changing the way we get our news. Many people now get a lot of their news on electronic devices, instead of traditional media, such as newspapers, television or radio. An increasing number of people also report turning to social media for information.

Now, there is a new technology that could greatly change the way we get the news: computer-created news readers. Recently, China launched what it called the worlds first artificial intelligence, or AI news presenters.

The news readers, supported by machine learning technology, are based on two real-life Chinese newsmen. One is able to present newscasts in English, the other, in Mandarin Chinese. Report said machine learning was used to examine video images and sounds of the two newsmen. Similar technology has been used to create video products known as “deepfake” videos. A deepfake is a video that looks real, but was electronically changed. Such videos can make people appear to say things they never said.

It's said that the AI presenters will be a great improvement to the news team because they “can work 24 hours a day” on its website and on social media. One of the presenters even promised to “work tirelessly” to keep people informed. Some machine learning experts said the system showed off China’s latest progress in voice recognition, text-to-speech technology and data analysis.

Some companies have experimented with similar technology for possible use in news operations. Britain’s BBC recently released a video that used machine learning to make it look like one of its news readers speaking different languages. The London-based company that developed the system says its goal is to “remove the language barrier” for many different kinds of video across the internet. Also, Amazon is working on Alexa smart speaker system to create a special news reader voice. Amazon is reportedly preparing to launch Alexas news reader voice in the near future.
