More than 1,800 teen researchers came to the Valley of the Sun this week (May 12-17). Those who shone brightest took home big prizes. The prizes are from the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). Top winner Krithik Ramesh took home $75,000. He developed a system to help doctors do spinal surgery (脊椎外科手术) better. Using the technology, doctors can finish the surgery more quickly. Krithik’s system can map a patient’s spine. It can give doctors advice about how to carry out spinal surgery. It can be used not only in cities, but also in the countryside. The new system could take the place of the methods being used by today’s doctors, says Krithik,16, who attends Cherry Creek High School in Greenwood Village, Colo, USA. Krithik’s project won the Gordon E. Moore Award. It’s named for a founder of Intel. Other winners took home sizeable awards as well, this year. Together, these awards totaled about $5 million. The Intel ISEF has been honoring (表扬) young researchers since 1950. This competition was created and is still run by Society for Science & the Public(SSP). It is the world’s largest international pre-college science competition. Now supported by Intel, the 2019 ISEF brought together students from more than 80 countries and areas. “I am inspired by all of the creativity on show this week,” said SSP President Maya Ajmera. “Congratulations to our winners and all our finalists. They are, showing that world-changing ideas can come from anywhere in the world.”. 【1】Krithik Ramesh won the prize for his ________.

Before the discovery of DNA information in the 1980s, fingerprints（指纹）were the easiest way to solve serious crimes. It’s believed that each one of us has our own fingerprints. But did you know that our fingerprints could show a lot about us? According to The Conversation, fingerprints can show lifestyle and environment, eating habits, possible medical problems and even the job of a person. So how can we work all this out from just a simple fingerprint? Well, a fingerprint is formed when a finger touches a surface. Most fingerprints can’t be seen to the eye and require a chemical development process in order to make them shown. Stuck between the raised lines of a fingerprint, however, are things that can tell a story about who we are. Things like sweat, blood, and food show a lot of information about us. Besides, its use could be much wider. For example, it may be helpful in the future to doctors treating their patients. A fingerprint check may also tell a doctor whether a patient is properly having a medicine. In the treatment of some of the most serious illnesses, having proper medicine is important. In the future, fingerprint science can be used to the police and help doctors keep us in the best possible health. 【1】Fingerprints may not show one’s ________. A.lifestyle B.beauty C.eating habits D.medical problems 【2】What can make the fingerprints tell a story? A.Things stuck between raised lines. B.The chemical development. C.A finger touching a surface. D.The eyes of scientists. 【3】In the future, the doctor may know patients through ________. A.a drug test B.a fingerprint check C.a blood test D.a health check 【4】What is the main idea of the text? A.Fingerprints are helpful to the police. B.Fingerprints keep us in the best possible health. C.Fingerprints can tell much information about us. D.Fingerprints can be used in treatment in the future. |

A pen has always been an important tool when we are taking exams. However, in the digital age, this traditional tool may become a thing of the past. Cambridge University in Britain is considering ending 800 years of written exams and allowing students to use laptops or iPads to take exams instead. The move comes after Cambridge teachers complained (抱怨) that students' handwriting is becoming too hard to recognize. The fall in writing clearly depends on laptops in lessons and elsewhere. As a result, more and more students with poor handwriting are being forced to return to university during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud to their teachers. However, some criticized (批评) the move, fearing the handwritten word would become a lost art. Tracey Trussell, a handwriting expert, asked Cambridge to 'make sure that students continue to write by hand, particularly in lessons'. She told The Telegraph that writing by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better. The move also draws the attention of Harvard professor Eric Mazur. He believes that the rise of mobile internet use means that we live in an age in which we don't need to remember anything. So he encourages students to bring their laptops and mobile phones into exams. With them, students can 'look up whatever they want, whenever they want' and be tested on their productive skills, rather than the ability of memory. 【1】Why is Cambridge University considering ending written exams? A.Because students' handwriting is too poor. B.Because we are already in the digital age. C.Because traditional tools are out of date. D.Because writing on laptops is faster. 【2】What does the underlined part in the 2nd paragraph refer to? A.Bringing mobile phones into exams. B.Students' returning to university. C.The rise of mobile internet use. D.The end of written exams. 【3】What is Tracey Trussells' attitude to students' writing by hand? A.Unfavorable. B.Uncaring. C.Supportive. D.Doubtful. 【4】Which is true according to Professor Eric Mazur? A.Mobile internet use is bad. B.Students should write by hand. C.The ability of memory is important. D.Students can use mobile phones in exams. |

We have different opinion. Some think it’s necessary. First, it helps students to better understand what difficult it is for parents to earn money. Besides, it helps them to develop a correctly view of consumption, which will benefit their future life. But, others disagree. They think they have so little pocket money that they needn’t to learn how to manage them. As for me, I think it is necessary because only when we had the ability to control a small amount money can we manage more wealth in the future. |
