Nothing could stop Dad. After he was put on disability for a bad back, he bought a small farm in the country, just enough to grow food for the family. He planted vegetables, fruit trees and even kept bees for honey. And every week he cleaned Old Man McColgin’s chicken house in exchange for manure(肥料). The smell really burned the inside of your nose. When we complained about the terrible smell, Dad said the stronger the manure, the healthier the crops, and he was right. For example, just one of his cantaloupes filled the entire house with its sweet smell, and the taste was even sweeter. As the vegetables started coming in, Dad threw himself into cooking. One day, armed with a basket of vegetables, he announced he was going to make stew(炖菜). Dad pulled out a pressure cooker and filled it up with cabbages, eggplants, potatoes, corns, onions and carrots. For about half an hour, the pressure built and the vegetables cooked. Finally, Dad turned off the stove, the pot began to cool and the pressure relief valve(阀门) sprayed out a cloud of steam. If we thought Dad’s pile of chicken manure was bad, this was 10 times worse. When Dad took off the lid, the smell nearly knocked us out. Dad carried the pot out and we opened doors and windows to air out the house. Just how bad was it? The neighbors came out of their houses to see if we had a gas leak! Determined, Dad filled our plates with steaming stew and passed them around. It didn’t look that bad, and after the first wave had shut down my ability to smell, it didn’t offend the nose so much, either. I took a taste. It would never win a prize in a cooking competition, but it was surprisingly edible, and we drank up every last drop of soup! 【1】Why did Dad clean Old Man McColgin’s chicken house regularly? A. To set a good example to us. B. To collect manure for his crops. C. To get rid of the terrible smell. D. To earn some money for the family. 【2】What can we infer about Dad’s stew? A. It tastes quite good. B. It looks very wonderful. C. It is popular among the neighbors. D. It contains honey and vegetables. 【3】What does the underlined word “offend” in the last paragraph mean? A. To attract. B. To upset. C. To air. D. To shut. 【4】What can we learn about Dad from the text? A. He has a positive attitude to life. B. He is an experienced cook. C. He is a troublesome father. D. He suffers a lot from his disability. |

AIDS-related illnesses have killed more than 30 million people since 1981. That's half as many deaths as in World War II. And it's not over. An estimated 1.1 million Americans are among the 33 million people worldwide who are now living with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Between 1884 and 1924, somewhere near modern-day Kinshasa in West Central Africa, a hunter kills a chimpanzee. Some of the animal's blood enters the hunter's body, possibly through an open wound. The blood carries a virus harmless to the chimp but deadly to humans: HIV. In June, 1981, the CDC publishes a report from Los Angeles of five young homosexual men with fatal or life-threatening PCP pneumonia. First cases recognized. In 1985, Rock Hudson dies of AIDS. Larry Kramer's AIDS play, "The Normal Heart." shocks New York audiences. In 1986, for the first time, President Reagan publicly utters the word "AIDS." In 1987, Princess Diana is photographed hugging people with AIDS. Reagan makes his first speech on AIDS. Liberace dies of AIDS. Three years later, Photographer Robert Mapplethorpe dies of AIDS. In 1988, the first World AIDS DAY is held on Dec. 1. During 1991-1992, the red ribbon is introduced as a symbol of AIDS solidarity(团结一致). But AIDS becomes the leading cause of death in U.S. men aged 25-44 and ten years later, AIDS becomes the leading cause of death worldwide for people aged 15 to 59. In 2008, for the first time, global AIDS deaths decline. UNAIDS calculates that the global spread of AIDS peaked in 1996 at 3.5 million new infections. Deaths peaked in 2004, at 2.2 million. Yet AIDS Day 2009 brings surprising figures: 2.7 million new HIV infections and 2 million AIDS deaths in the previous year. Researchers have discovered more than a dozen antibodies that target the HIV virus. They hope that these discoveries will lead to a vaccine that offers long-term protection against AIDS. One antibody in particular, PGT 128, is considered among the most potent and promising—preventing about 70% of viruses from infecting cells in laboratory tests. 【1】What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. HIV: from monkeys to humans. B. A hunter's killing caused HIV. C. HIV is harmless to the chimpanzee. D. HIV is deadly to humans. 【2】How many famous people died of AIDS mentioned in the passage between 1985 and 1991? A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5. 【3】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. The red ribbon and the World AIDS Day are both the symbols of AIDS solidarity. B. In 2008, AIDS caused most deaths since 1981 and the death began to go down. C. In 1986, President Reagan used the word "AIDS" and made a speech on it. D. During 2001-2002, AIDS is the leading cause of death in the world aged 15 to 59. 【4】What attitude does the author have towards the treatment to AIDS in the future? A. Pessimistic. B. Optimistic. C. Objective. D. Uncertain. |

In 1961, a group of scientists set up a permanent camp on Possession Island, a bit of land located in the Crozet Archipelago, about halfway between Madagascar and Antarctica in the Indian Ocean. Their goal was a long-term study of king penguins, and scientists have continued that study for more than 50 years, sometimes accompanied by a small number of tourists. The penguins appear to be habituated to the presence of humans, but a new study in BMC Ecology finds that even this limited human contact may be negatively affecting them. A team of researchers from France and Switzerland compared 15 king penguins from the areas regularly disturbed by scientists and tourists with 18 birds that bred in an undisturbed area, recording the penguins' heart rates in response to three potential human stressors—loud noise, approaches by humans and capture. With both loud noise and human approach, the penguins from the disturbed area were far less stressed than their companions from the undisturbed area. All the birds, however, found capture to be a stressful experience. It's possible that these penguins have grown used to the presence of humans in their breeding area. Over time, the population would evolve to handle this disturbance(干扰) better and better. That may seem like a good thing, the scientists say. This is hardly the first time that researchers have found that their methods have had unexpected consequences for the animals they study. A central question for experts is the extent to which human's disturbances (such as tourism) might impact wildlife and affect the systems under study. One of the major mistakes of such research is in forgetting that, from the idea of the wildlife studied, tourism and scientific research are not two worlds apart. 【1】Why did scientists set up a permanent camp on Possession Island? A. Because they want to attract more tourists. B. Because they want to study king penguins. C. Because they want to raise more penguins. D. Because they want to link Madagascar with Antarctica. 【2】According to the passage, penguins seldom get pressure from ________. A. approaches by humans B. loud noise C. scientists' capture D. other penguins' company 【3】The underlined word "evolve" in Paragraph 3 means ________. A. Develop gradually B. Disobey gradually C. Discount gradually D. Display gradually 【4】What's the best title of the passage? A. King Penguins Inspire the Development of Tourism B. King Penguins Develop Well with Humans' Disturbances C. King Penguins Live a Happy Life in Antarctica D. King Penguins Stressed out by Scientists and Tourists |

Color is in everything we touch, taste, smell and feel. It evokes(唤起) emotion without any thought.【1】We are all familiar with it, but do you know the following facts? Silver will save your life. When buying a new car and finding yourself facing various choices, you can’t think clearly. Your best choice is to go with silver. Silvercolored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident. 【2】 Another reason is the silver color's ability to have a look of cleanliness. 【3】 Tough prisoners and crazy patients？It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control. So it surely has a useful place and a purpose, other than decorating a dress or Barbie's dream house. Yellow makes you hungry. Yellow and orange are not recommended for use in kitchens, as they have a positive influence on your appetite.【4】 I’m not normally one for conspiracy(阴谋) theories but perhaps there’s something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow’s effects. Color is an imaginary friend. Technically, it’s all in our heads: color does not exist at all. 【5】 So, if you start a heated debate over color combinations with someone that you are certain has a low IQ or is just colorblind，remember it's a pointless argument and you should drop it instantly. You're both wrong. A. Pink comforts the nerves. B. Blue is the most common favorite color. C. They are most noticeable on the road and in low light. D. Yellowcolored walls seldom leave us wanting more food. E. It can be the focus of our careers, our lifestyle and the fun we have. F. Then where would our restaurant owners be without the clever tricks? G. Color tries to make sense of the huge amount of information from the outer world. |

Danger is not what we expect. But the truth is that it often comes suddenly and unexpectedly. How can we get out of danger? There are many answers to this question. The key is whether we can face danger 【1】(brave). What you must remember is that you must believe in 【2】(you). Just remember that it is you 【3】 can defeat any danger. Tell yourself that you can turn into a superwoman or a superman when you are 【4】 danger. This is why I am going to tell you the stories of Mrs. Weldon and Dr. Murray. Mrs. Weldon reported that her baby was about 【5】(knock) down by a car when she was trying to save her baby. Mrs. Weldon 【6】(weigh) only forty kilograms. She looked as if she was a very weak lady often 【7】(dress) in skirts, but she said she pushed the car to save her baby. Dr. Murray, a zoologist, wrote that he , after 【8】 some wolves ran, jumped nearly three meters high into the air to take hold of the 【9】(low) branch of a tree. Perhaps you are wondering if you can do such things as they did. You can also be lucky to escape any 【10】(injure)! |
