21、Where do dogs come from?

Gray wolves are their ancestors. Scientists are pretty consistent about that. And researchers have suggested that dogs’ origins can date back to Europe, the Near East, Siberia and South China. Central Asia is the newest and best candidate, according to a large study of dogs from around the world.

Laura M. Shannon and Adam R. Boyko at Cornell University, and an international group of other scientists, studied not only purebred(纯种的) dogs, but also street or village dogs.

Dr. Shannon analyzed three different kinds of DNA, Dr. Boyko said, the first time this has been done for such a large and diverse group of dogs from 38 countries. And that led them to Central Asia as the place of origin for dogs in much the same way that genetic studies have located the origin of modern humans in East Africa.

The analysis, Dr. Boyko said, pointed to Central Asia, as the place where “all the dogs alive today” come from. The data did not allow precise dating of the origin, he said, but showed it occurred at least 15,000 years ago.

Greger Larson of Oxford University, who is leading a large international effort to analyze ancient DNA from fossilized bones, said he was impressed by the study. “It’s really great to see not just the number of street dogs, but also the geographic breadth and the number of remote locations where the dogs were sampled,” he said in an email. He also praised the sampling of different kinds of DNA and the analytic methods.

Dr. Larson, who was not involved with the study, said he thought the Central Asia finding required further testing. He said he suspected that the origins of modern dogs were “extremely messy” and that no amount of sampling of living populations will be definitive. He said a combination of studies of modern and ancient DNA is necessary.

【1】According to the research on a large number of dogs, we can know____________.

A. dogs mainly lived in Europe and the Far East

B. dogs would like to live in Central Asia

C. dogs’ ancestors come from gray wolves

D. the Near East has many gray wolves

【2】What can we infer from what Dr. Boyko said?

A. There are three different kinds of DNA in dogs.

B. This is the second time they have done so many dogs.

C. They only do research on village dogs from many countries.

D. Modern humans are from East Africa while dogs come from Central Asia.

【3】Greger Larson got a very deep impression of his study because he____________.

A. found the study based on many different dogs and the sample dogs’ remote locations

B. saw the number of street dogs from fossilized bones

C. watched the geographic breadth of the sampled dogs

D. praised his teammates for their hard work on the dogs

【4】Who wasn’t engaged in the study of dogs’ origins?

A. Laura M. Shannon   B. Adam R. Boyko

C. Shannon and Boyko D. Greger Larson

22、Look out, Einstein, a robot wants your job! This robot, named Adam, may be the first non-human to ever independently think up and test hypotheses in order to discover new scientific knowledge. Adam’s discoveries so far have something to do with yeast genetics — not nearly as mind-blowing as Einstein’s theories on relativity, but still impressive when you realize that nobody told Adam which yeast gene to study. “Adam makes up its mind about what to do,” Rose King of Aberyth University in the United Kingdom, the robot’s creator, told CBC News in Canada. “It decides what experiments to do and what to test.”

Of course, Adam’s choices are limited by the information King feeds it and the lab equipment it has access to. The physical robotic system includes robotic arms, a freezer, fans and equipment useful for biological research. Adam also has loads of data on yeast and other organisms.

To decide what to do, Adam finds a place where the yeast genetic data is incomplete, and then searches for complete information about similar genes in other organisms. By comparing all of this data, Adam is able to form a hypothesis and start experimenting. Adam can bring up to 1,000 new experiments each day.

Why Yeast? Biologists use this simple organism as a model for more complex ones, like human cells. So far, Adam has figured out the functions of 12 different yeast genes. When King and his team tested Adam’s results, everything was correct. Eventually, Adam will be able to move beyond yeast as long as King uploads the data necessary for new experiments. King’s team has also built a new robotic scientist named Eve. This robot will screen new drugs for diseases like malaria.

Robotics has been useful in scientific laboratories for a long time, but usually the machines just do the work and deal with data that humans have to sort through. This is the first time a robot has not only designed its own experiment, but determined its own results! Still, modern Einsteins should not worry about being replaced. Robot scientists like Adam are much more likely to be lab assistants rather than brilliant theorists.

【1】Adam is different from other robots mainly because he________.

A．can do experiments on its own

B．can do a better job than Einstein

C．has found new discoveries on relativity

D．is created by a scientist named Rose King

【2】In the future, Adam will be likely to________.

A．work with other robotic scientists

B．create new drugs for human diseases

C．experiment with more complex organisms

D．discover the functions of 12 different yeast genes

【3】According to the passage, we can infer that ________.

A．Adam will successfully become a brilliant theorist

B．Adam is the only robotic scientist in the world

C．Adam can not determine its own experiment results

D．Adam can not completely replace the human scientists

23、   Katie always wanted to be a performer. She, the youngest of, the three kids from Cleveland, was crazy about musicals and Disney movies from an early age and would often watch them singing with her mom, Karen. However, Katie’s happy childhood took a turn when her mother was diagnosed(诊断)with cancer. When the doctor informed the family that Karen’s disease was terminal, they decided to make a trip to Disney World.

The family spared no expense for their once-in-a-lifetime vacation and stayed at Disney’s hotel for eight nights. They spent their days in the parks, seeing the sights, greening characters, all the while pushing Karen in her wheelchair and watching her face light up with joy. They all shared in the merriment of experiencing the parks for the first time with Karen. The trip to Disney World at the height of Karen’s battle with cancer slowed them to escape into a world of magic and laughter. This was the day Katie decided she wanted to work for Disney.

Sadly, Karen lost the battle and died later, but the whole family remembered her every day and often thought of that Disney vacation Katie went on to go after her dream. After she received her degree in musical theater, she struggled for years, working as a waitress and trying to be a performer. Her hard work finally paid off when she was hired to work for Disney.

As a Disney performer, Katie is aware that many other families visit the parks and have similar stories to her own. She encourages everyone, especially children, who may be experiencing a hard time. “Every moment -is meant for you, even the painful ones.” she says. “It’s just like in your favorite Disney movie: There is always some kind of conflict or hardship or pressure. Remember to celebrate those moments, too, because they are taking you to whatever your version of a happy ending is.”

【1】What made Katie decide to work for Disney?

A.The dream that she wanted to live a lire full magic.

B.The memory that she watched Disney movies as a kid.

C.The great joy the Disney vacation brought to her family.

D.The great courage her mother showed in fighting cancer.

【2】Which of the following words best describe Katie?

A.Kind and curious. B.Patient and helpful.

C.Strict and independent. D.Tough and determined.

【3】What message does Katie convey in the last paragraph?

A.Sweet is pleasure after pain. B.Experience must be bought.

C.Many drops make a shower. D.Good medicine tastes bitter.

24、   When students walk into Jenny Umland’s class, they don’t automatically go to the same seat they sat in the day before. In her classroom at Riverdale Heights Elementary School, Iowa, students are allowed to sit wherever they want. Umland doesn’t assign seats. In fact, she has done away with most of the regular desks and uses beach chairs, standing desks, and rocking chairs instead.

Riverdale Heights is one of a growing number of schools that have ditched assigned seats. Many teachers say letting kids choose where to sit helps them learn how to make good choices.Some teachers point out that students are often more comfortable speaking up when they’re sitting near kids they like the most.

“If kids are happy and comfortable, they are more willing to learn,” says Umland. After 19 years of teaching, she tried non-assigned seating for the first time this year. She says she’ll never go back.

But not all teachers are ready to do away with their seating charts. Some say having assigned seats helps students focus on their work, instead of where they’ll sit. One teacher from Texas thinks letting students sit wherever they want can create chaos. Assigned seating helps keep classrooms under control. Without specific seats to go to, students may argue over who gets to sit in the best spots. He often finds it hard to work in that environment.A more controlled classroom leads to better learning. Maybe what he says is reasonable. A 2012 study by Montana State University found that high school students did better on tests when a teacher assigned their seats.

A student, Jack, from Lowa, thinks he and his classmates should be comfortable when they learn. He says, “My teacher, Mrs. Umland, allows us to choose our own seats, and it’s great! I used to be terrified of sitting in the same seat every day, which made me uncomfortable all over. Being allowed to sit wherever I want makes me more enjoyable, because I can sit where I’m most comfortable.” And Umland says, “The setup in my class helps kids get along better. If two students want to sit in the same spot, they have to talk it out and compromise.”

【1】What do we know about Umland?

A.She insists on arranging regular desks. B.She is strongly against non-assigned seating.

C.She has failed in teaching in the past 19 years. D.She lets students in her class choose their own seats.

【2】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “ditched” in paragraph 2?

A.Got rid of. B.Looked forward to. C.Tried on. D.Prepared for.

【3】What does Jack think of the Umland’s seat setup in her class?

A.It is controversial. B.It is uncomfortable. C.It is cozy. D.It is terrifying.

【4】What’s the best title for the text?

A.What Role Do Students Play in Class? B.Should Students Have Assigned Seats?

C.Students Are Required to Listen Carefully in Class D.Assigned Seats in the Classroom Are Popular Now

25、Ten years ago, I set out to examine luck. I wanted to know why some people are  _______ in the right place at the right time, while others consistently experienced ill fortune. I placed _______ in national newspapers asking for people who felt consistently lucky or unlucky to _______ me.

Hundreds of extraordinary men and women volunteered for my _______. Over the years I interviewed them, watched their lives and had them _______ various experiments.

I carried out a simple _______ to discover whether their differences in  _______ was due to differences in their ability to _______ opportunities. I gave both the lucky and unlucky people a newspaper, and asked them to look _______ it and tell me how many photographs were inside. I had  ________ placed a large message halfway through the newspaper saying … “Tell the experimenter you have seen this and win $50.”

This ________ took up half of the page and was written in type that was more than two inches high. It was staring everyone straight in the face, but the unlucky people tended to ________  it and the lucky people tended to spot it.

Unlucky people are generally more ________ than lucky people, and this anxiety affects their ability to notice the ________. As a result, they miss opportunities because they are too ________ on looking for something else. They go to gatherings focused on finding their perfect partner and miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through newspapers ________ to find certain types of job advertisements and miss other types of  ________.

Lucky people are more ________ and open, and therefore see what is there rather than just what they are looking for. My research eventually showed that lucky people create good fortune via four ________. They are skilled at creating and ________ chance opportunities, make lucky decisions by listening to their intuition (直觉), create self-fulfilling prophesies (预言) via positive expectations and adopt a “never say die” attitude that transforms bad luck into good.
