The day of my holiday arrived, but I wasn’t looking forward to it. I had little money and had only been able to afford to stay with my Aunt Rosa in Spain. So, I wasn’t really excited as I knew exactly what it was going to be like; Lots of noisy cousins and Aunt Rosa begged me to take her for a ride.

After I had checked in, I made my way slowly to the departure gate. As I was waiting to board the plan, I kept thinking about my ideal holiday destination; Jamaica, with its long, sandy beaches and crystal clear water.

As soon as the plane took off, I fell fast asleep and only woke to the sound of the announcement; “Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seat belts, as we will shortly be landing in Kingston.” I froze in my seat. Was I dreaming? Kingston? Jamaica? I had boarded the wrong plane!

Immediately after the plane landed, I explained the situation to the authorities. It seems there were also three of other passengers heading for Spain. Apparently it had been the airline’s fault, since the flight numbers for Spain and Jamaica were exactly the same! Therefore, with no flight to London for a week, the airline had no choice except to pay for our stay.

So there I was, lying on the beach, enjoying the music and marvelous food of Jamaica! As for Aunt Rosa, I suppose she just had to live without me!

It's long been known that dogs and cats, with their well developed sense of smell, can be trained to identify the chemicals released by human illnesses．In some cases, researchers have even trained household pets to detect or predict epilepsy（癫痫病）．But what if we could fine set that sense and put it into a microchip, allowing us to create a breathalyzer for diseases?

For Dr．Andrew Koehl, the inventor of the microchip technology at the heart of this digital nose, the technology that will allow us to do just that is already here．“We can detect down to parts per billion levels,” Koehl says．“To give you a similarity that's equal to one drop in an Olympic size swimming pool.” The sensor identifies each chemical's make-up in the air．If the sensor is set to a certain level, it will set off an alarm.

Work continues to make it smaller and makes it able to enter the healthcare market．Within several years, the company hopes to develop it as a diagnostic（诊断） tool．“What's amazing is that there really are chemicals on your breath that indicate illness, that's been shown through a number of studies and we can detect those,” he said．“There have already been a number of research papers published suggesting we can detect many disease.”

 At the beginning, the technology had been developed for defense purposes．He said the terror caused by the events of September 11 had got him thinking about the application of this type of sensor in safety check．“Originally it was aimed at detecting things like explosives, poisonous chemicals and other terrors that might occur,” said Dr Koehl.

Eventually the sensor could become a part of many everyday instruments, warning users of which foods are going bad in the fridge or even the best moment to take the roast out of the microwave oven.

You could even, one day, have a digital nose that you could carry in your pocket．“More recently we've been looking at user spaces so we're talking to a number of producers of mobile phones and mobile phone parts,” he said．“We want to develop a module small enough to put into mobile devices like phones.”

59．It can be inferred from the passage that_______.

    A．This type of sensor was designed to prevent disease at first

    B．The digital nose can be put into mobile phones at present

    C．Users might take the mobile devices with them in near future

    D．The new invention has already entered the healthcare market

60．The underlined word “ detect”（Paragraph1）is closest in meaning to_______.

    A．protect                  B．discover                C．settle                     D．remove

61．What’s the passage mainly about?

    A．Dogs and cats have a strong sense of smell.

    B．A new sensor is used to identify chemicals.

    C．Modern technology is developing very fast.

    D．Digital nose on a microchip can smell diseases.

The first day of school, our professor introduced an old lady Rose to us.
“Why are you in college at such an age?” I asked her. She replied, “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” We became friends quickly.
At the end of the term, I invited Rose to make a speech to our football team. I’ll never forget what she taught us. She said, “There are some secrets of staying young and being happy. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You must have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you will die. There is a huge difference between growing old and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t need any talent or ability. To grow up, you must always find the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The people who are afraid of death are those with regrets.”
     At the end of the year, Rose finished her college. One week after graduation, Rose died peacefully in her sleep. We would always remember the great woman.

21. The underlined word “talent” in the third paragraph means “___” in Chinese.

22. If you want to stay young and be happy, ___, according to Rose.

23. What is the best title of the passage?

In the famous fairy tale, Snow White eats the Queen’s apple and falls victim to a curse; in Shakespeare’s novel, Romeo drinks the poison and dies; some ancient Chinese emperors took pills that contained mercury, believing that it would make them live for ever, but they died afterward.
   Poison has long been an important ingredient in literature and history, and it seems to always be connected with evil, danger and death. But how much do you really know about poison?
   An exhibition, The Power of Poison, opened last month at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, intended to give the audience a more vivid understanding of poison. The exhibition will continue until August, reported The New York Times.
   The museum tour starts in a rainforest setting, where you can see live examples of some of the most poisonous animals: caterpillars(毛虫), frogs and spiders. Golden poison frogs, for instance, aren’t much bigger than a coin, but their skin is covered in a poison that can cut off the signaling power of your nerves, and a single frog has enough venom（毒液） to kill 10 grown humans.
   The exhibition also features interactive activities. In an iPad-based game, visitors are presented with three puzzling illnesses and asked to identify the poisons based on signs and symptoms. In one case, for example, a pet dog is found sick in a backyard and visitors have to figure out whether it was the toad (蟾蜍), the leaky batteries in the trash or the dirty pond water that did it.
   ''Poisons can be bad for some things,'' Michael Novacek, senior vice president of the museum, told NBC News. ''Yet they can also be good for others.''
   This is what visitors learn from the last part of the exhibition, which displays how poisons can be used favorably by humans, including for medical treatment.
   The blood toxins of vampire bats, for example, can prevent blood from clotting (凝结), which may protect against strokes（中风）. A poisonous chemical found in the yew tree is effective against cancer, which is what led to the invention of a cancer-fighting drug called Taxol. One chemical in the venom of Gila monsters can lower the blood sugar of its victims, so it has been used to treat diabetes.
   The benefits from natural poisons are not limited to just medicine. Believe it or not, many things that we regularly take in – chili, coffee and chocolate, etc. – owe their special flavors or effects to chemicals that plants make to poison insects.

33. By mentioning Snow White and Romeo at the beginning of the story, the author intends to ________.

A. draw readers’ attention to the topic of the article

B. show that poison is always linked with evil and death
C. show that poison has long been involved in literature

D. get readers to think of more examples of the use of poison in stories

34. What is the main purpose of the exhibition The Power of Poison?

A. To inform people about which animals are the most poisonous.
B. To teach people how to handle poisonous animals.
C. To give people more in-depth knowledge about poison.

   D. To show how poison has been used for medical treatment.

35. Which of the following statements about the exhibition is TRUE according to the article?

A. The exhibition will lead visitors to a real rainforest.
B. Those who visit the exhibition can join in some iPad-based interactive games.
C. Golden poison frogs are the most poisonous animals on display.

I took the bus to work for many years. No one knew each other; the passengers all sat there sleepily in the morning. The bus was cheerless and silent.

One of the passengers was a small gray-haired man who took the bus to the center for senior citizens every morning. No one ever paid very much attention to him.

One July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled. The driver nodded guardedly(戒备地). The rest of us were silent.

The next day, the old man boarded with a big smile and said in a loud voice: “A very good morning to you all!” Some of us looked up, amazed, and murmured “Good Morning” in reply.

The following weeks, our friend was dressed in a nice old suit and tie. His thin hair had been carefully combed. He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other.

One morning he even had a bunch of wild flowers in his hand. The driver turned around smiling and asked: “Have you got yourself a girlfriend, Charlie?” We never got to know if his name really was “Charlie”, but he nodded shyly and said yes. The other passengers whistled and clapped at him. Charlie waved the flowers before he sat down on his seat.

Every morning after that Charlie always brought flowers. Some passengers also brought flowers for him. The bus became a happy place.

Then, one morning, as autumn was closing in, Charlie wasn’t waiting at his usual stop. When he wasn’t there the next day and the day after that, we started wondering if he was sick or—hopefully – on holiday somewhere.

When we came nearer to the center for senior citizens, one of the passengers asked the driver to wait. We all held our breaths when he went to the door.

The old gentle man was fine, but one of his close friends had died over the weekend. How silent we were the rest of the way to work.

The next Monday Charlie was waiting at the stop, stooping (弯腰) a bit more, a little bit more gray, and without a tie. Inside the bus was silent. Even though no one had talked about it, all of us sat there silently, our eyes filled with tears and a bunch of wild flowers in our hands.
