Making beers on the moon might seem like a pipe dream to many, but for a group of students from the University of California at San Diego, there is a chance to take their research beyond Earth’s surface. The Lab2Moon competition, held by TeamIndus, is offering students the chance to secure a spot on the TeamIndus rocket this year. Taking craft beer to the next level, the students want to test whether it’s possible for yeast(酵母) to work and create beer on the moon. However, they believe the experiment is not just a creative concept for astronauts, it’s also important for the development of drugs and yeast-containing food, like bread. “The idea started out with a few laughs among a group of friends,” said Neeki Ashari, a fifth-year bioengineering students at UC San Diego. “We all appreciate the craft beer. When we heard that there was an opportunity to design an experiment that would go up on India’s moonlander, w e thought we could combine our hobby with the competition by focusing on the practicality of yeast in outer space.” The preparation work for the beer — up to the stage of adding yeast — will all be done on Earth, and rather than separating the fermentation ( 发酵) and carbonation stage of making beer, the team plans to combine them. This removes the need to release CO2 accumulated in the process, which may result in cleanliness and safety issues out in space. If selected, Team Original Gravity will be the first to make beer in outer space, and the fermentation will take place in a container no bigger than a soda can. All teams competing for the place will showcase their ideas in Bangalore, India, in March. Sadly, you won’t be enjoying moon beer in your local craft beer bar anytime soon, as no samples will be brought back. However, this small experiment could provide important data on just how practical it is for us to make and create our own resources on other planets and moons by learning how consumables (消耗品) behave in different environments. 【1】How did the students feel when they got the chance to design the experiment ? A.Excited. B.Nervous. C.Confident. D.Casual. 【2】What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 6 refer to? A.The mixing of two stages. B.Adding yeast on Earth. C.The preparation work on Earth. D.Fermentation and carbonation. 【3】What can we learn about the experiment from the passage? A.It has been designed based on similar experiments. B.It’s quite competitive compared with other designs. C.It’s design has already been approved by TeamIndus. D.Its process was adapted to make it safer and greener. 【4】What does the author think of the students ’ idea? A.It seems like a pipe dream. B.It’s extremely complicated. C.It’s meaningful and hopeful. D.It’s creative but impractical.

It is quite apparent that competition surrounds every aspect of human life whether in the United States or the Amazon rainforest. Without it we would not have grown into primates (灵长类动物) . Or we would probably still be struggling to sharpen a bronze tool while crawling around on four legs in search of meat. Without competition, Columbus wouldn’t have discovered America and Edison would never have invented the light bulb. Friendship, like all relationships between two people, involves competition. It isn’t competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prize. Perhaps the ecological definition --- the simultaneous (同时) demand by two or more organisms for limited environmental resources, such as nutrinents, living space, or light --- better explains it. As in nature, high school life is governed by a set of laws, similar to a shortened version of Darwin’s theory of evolution, overpopulation, and competition. There is an abundance of high school students and to distinguish them, ranking and categorizing (分类) take place. In high school, friendships learn to coexist with competition even though at times the relationship is rough. In fact, in some circumstance, competition is too much of a burden for a friendship to bear, causing it to fall apart. College admission is the final high school objective. Four years of hard work is to achieve good grades, and a student’s fate is determined not only by these achievements, but by the records of thousands of other seniors trying to achieve a similar recognition. Nevertheless, by necessity, competition between students exists in all aspects of high school life. It sets and improves the standards in everything from sports to schoolwork. A healthy, friendly competition can have only benefits, but when it becomes too fierce, jealousy (妒忌) can tear friendships apart. Yet, despite all this, without competition, we would be lost. 【1】What does the ecological definition mainly explain? A. How to win the competition. B. What competition exactly is. C. What the result of competition is. D. How friends compete with each other. 【2】According to the writer, what causes the high school students to compete? A. They know the laws of nature well. B. Friendship is a burden for them. C. The number of them is too large. D. They are divided into different groups. 【3】Which best describes the relationship of friendship and competition? A. Friendship is always based on competition. B. Competition is a result of lost friendship. C. Competition is terribly harmful to friendships. D. The degree of competition is vital to friendship. 【4】What does the author think of “competition”? A. Competition is certain to happen at school. B. The result of competition are out of control. C. Competition becomes fierce in high school. D. Friendship is not as important as competition at school.

Friendly doctors are “bad for their patients’ health”, researchers have warned as a new study revealed two thirds of young doctors struggle to be truthful with patients they like. Blurring (使……模糊) the lines between social and professional relationships can affect the level of care offered and prevent patients from being honest about important side effects. “Doctors should avoid adding patients as friends on Facebook, they should not hug or allow patients to call them by their first names.” regulators have warned. “Those who break the boundaries will face some punishment.” It comes as a survey of 338 oncologists (肿瘤科医生) under the age of 40, found 59 per cent said they found it difficult to tell the truth to those patients they liked. Sixty per cent of respondents said if doctors felt too close to their patients, it could prevent them from making objective decisions about a person’s care. Lesley Fallowfield, of Brighton and Sussex Medical School, said: “Oncology is a profession that can be enormously rewarding but is filled with many challenges. Young oncologists have to master dealing with anxious patients who are facing a life-threatening disease; conveying the true prognosis (预后); discussing the complexity of modern treatments; and explaining the unavailability of some drugs, the side-effects of treatment, and likely treatment aims.” But she said, “Those doctors who have entered the profession in the age of the ‘Internet world’are more likely to fall victim to blurring the professional boundaries with patients.” She said: “The difficulty, if you hug and kiss patients, if you allow them to call you by your first name, is that quickly the relationship can become confused as a social one rather than a professional one. Doctors become confused, ‘I really like this person, how can I bear to tell them that they’re going to die?’ They find it more difficult to be objective.” 【1】Why are friendly doctors bad for their patients’health? A.They don’t like to cheat patients. B.They are not good at treating patients. C.They find it not easier to be objective to the patients. D.They seldom blur the relationship with patients. 【2】What should doctors do according to the regulations? A.Add patients as friends on Facebook. B.Have close connection with patients in life. C.Always be cold to patients. D.Keep a proper distance to patients. 【3】Which opinion will Lesley Fallowfield agree with? A.Oncology is a rewarding profession without challenges. B.The Internet makes it easier for young doctors to break the boundaries. C.It’s not the duty of doctors to deal with patients’ anxiety. D.Becoming friends with patients will help them recover soon. 【4】Young oncologists will face the following challenges except_____________. A.dealing with a lot of life-threatening diseases B.discussing difficulties of treatment with patients C.explaining the reason for the lack of some medicine D.informing patients of the possible results of the treatment

People have always had to find ways to keep food safe to eat. Methods to dry, smoke and salt food were invented thousands of years ago. 【1】 This storage method keeps food safe to eat for long periods of time. Today, canning is one of the most popular methods of storing food. Clean fruits or vegetables are placed in glass bottles. The food can be put into the bottles either hot or cold. The cold method is used for soft fruits and vegetables that could lose their shape or taste. 【2】 They take up less space in the bottles. After the food has been placed in glass bottles, boiling water is poured into the bottles to about three centimeters below the top. 【3】 The bottles are placed in a large container filled with warm water that is then brought to a boil. The water must completely cover the bottles, from three to five centimeters over the top. When the water boils, any air in the bottles will be expelled. The boiling continues for several minutes. Then the bottles are allowed to cool. Finally, they are placed briefly into cold water. 【4】 In other words, a vacuum （真空）is created. When the bottles are completely cool, notes can be placed on them to identify what is inside. The bottles can then be stored in a cool, dark place at a temperature of between 4℃ and 21℃. 【5】 It is also a good way to store food for six months to a year, or even several years, in case of an emergency. It does not cost much to continue canning every year once the equipment has been purchased. A.The process of canning is much more recent. B.This makes a strong barrier to keep the air out. C.One popular method of canning uses a water bath. D.Firmer fruits and most vegetables are usually cooked. E.Canning uses heat to kill bacteria that cause poisons to form in food. F.Then covers are placed on the bottles, but they are not turned all the way. G.Canning allows your family to enjoy foods that might not come fresh throughout the year.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为120左右。 In 1989, fresh out of high school, I was faced with a difficult choice of a career path before college started in three months. In those days in Pakistan（巴基斯坦），there were limited choices: becoming a doctor or an engineer, or entering the financial world after getting a business degree. I wasn't interested in engineering, so that I was left with medicine or business. I couldn't decide. My uncle suggested that I do a work placement（实习工作）to experience it for a month in an international company followed by a month in a hospital. After that, I could make a decision. It seemed like a good idea. I was accepted for a month's placement at a foreign bank in Karachi. I got a feel for how the world of finance worked, made new friends, and generally enjoyed the mostly easy-going work environment. The month passed rapidly, and soon I began working at a leading hospital in Karachi. The experience was quite different. The hospital days started early（at 7 am, compared with 9 am at the bank）, and were filled with endless duties. And the night calls! This was crazy, working all day, through the night, and again in the next day. I began thinking about my two experiences. The bank had offered a more relaxing atmosphere, better working hours and less stress. The hospital had an intense（严肃紧张的）environment, and the studying and training was difficult. It seemed that business was a better choice. Near the end of my month at the hospital, I was driving home after a very busy night call. In front of me was a public bus, with some boys sitting on the top. As the driver weaved through（穿梭）traffic, I could see the boys shaking from side to side. Paragraph 1; Suddenly, a boy fell off the back of the bus. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next day, when I went to hospital to see the boy, all his family got up, with grateful smiles on their faces. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
