17.Instead of hitting the beach,fourteen high school students traded swimming suits for lab coats last summer and turned their attention to scientific experiments.
The High School Research Program offers high school students guidance with researchers in Texas A&M's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.Jennifer Funkhouser,academic adviser for the Department of Rangeland Ecology and Management,dirests this four-week summer program designed to increase understanding of research and its career potential(潜能).
Several considerations go into selecting students,including grades,school involvement and interest in science and agriculture.And many students come from poorer school districts,Funkhouser says."This is their chance to learn techniques and do experiments they never would have a chance to do in high school.
Warner Ervin of Houston is interested in animal science and learned how to tell male from female mosquitoes(蚊子).His adviser,Craig  Coates,studies the genes of mosquitoes that allow them to fight against malaria and yellow fever.Coates thought this experience would be fun and helpful to the high school students.
The agricultural research at A&M differs from stereotypes.It's"molecular(分子)science on the cutting edge,"Funkhouser says.The program broadened students'knowledge.Victor Garcia of Rio Grande City hopes to become a biology teacher and says he learned a lot about chemistry from the program.
At the end of the program,the students presented papers on their research.They're also paid﹩600for their work-another way this program differs from others,which often charge a fee.
Fourteen students got paid to learn that science is fun,that agriculture is a lot more than milking and plowing and that research can open many doors.

1.The research program is chiefly designed forC.
A.high school advisers from Houston
B.college students majoring in agriculture
C.high school students from different places
D.researchers at the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences
2.It can be inferred from the text that the students in poorer areasC.

B.could often take part in the program
C.found the program useful to their future
D.showed much interest in their high school experiments
3.When the program was over,the studentsB.
A.entered that college                                
B.wrote research reports
C.paid for their research                              
D.found way to make money
4.What would be the best title for the text?D
A.A Program for Agricultural Science Students
B.A Program for Animal Science Students

3.Niels Bohr did well at school without ever being brilliant,usually coming third or fourth in a class of about 20students.If he really was good at any subject,it was,perhaps,physical education.He was an excellent soccer player,yet not as good as his brother.This was Niels Bohr,the worldfamous Nobel prize winning physicist.
Born to a physiology(生理学)professor,Niels lived in a world of ideas and discussion from his very early childhood at home.He developed an interest in physics and mathematics from the early days of his education.With no laboratory available in school and college,he would perform experiments in his father's laboratory.His first work on surface tension was done here,for which he won the Gold Medal in 1906from the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences.
Early in his scientific career,Bohr made great contributions to the understanding of atomic(原子的)structure based on quantum mechanics(量子力学).Neils Bohr came up with the model of an atom which was able to explain all the properties(性质)of the atom.It is this atomic model that is accepted even today with only ver slight improvements.This work won him the Nobel Prize for physics in 1922.
When the Nazis controlled Denmark,his life became difficult.He had to escape to Sweden in 1943in a fishing boat;from there he fled to England.England opened up opportunities of working on the atom bomb(原子弹).After a few months he joined a British research team and went to Los Alamos in the United States where the team continued to work on the project.
Niels was also deeply concerned with making people realize the destructive power of the atomic bomb.He published a letter to the United Nations in 1950which asked them to help get rid of nuclear(核的)weaponsin the world.This and his other activities won Bohr the first U.S.Atoms for Peace Award in 1957.He spent his remaining years showing,people that nuclear energy must be used in a positive and productive way.
29.Who probably helped Niels Bohr develop an interest in physics?D
A.His brother.
B.His mother.
C.His teacher.
D.His father.
30.Niels Bohr received the Nobel Prize mainly because ofB.
A.his physical education 
B.his atomic model
C.his understanding of quantum mechanics
D.his work on surface tension
31.Niels Bohr did his research work on the atom bomb inB
A.Denmark
B.America  
C.England 
D.Sweden
32.From the last paragraph we can infer thatB
A.the power of the atomic bomb will be used properly
B.Niels thought it wrong to develop nuclear weapons
C.nuclear energy has been used in quite a few ways
D.Niels would like to go on with his research work.

5.Most of the time,people wear hats to protect themselves from harsh  weather conditions.Hats are also worn to show politeness and as signs of social position.But nowadays,hats,especially women's hats,are much more than that.More exactly,hats have changed into fashion and style symbols by many movie stars.What's more,people now consider many different features (特点) when choosing even a simple hat.Many designers point out that,when choosing the right hat,it's important to consider the color of your skin as well as your hair,your height,and the shape of your face.
First of all,the color of the hat should match the color of your skin and hair.For instance,black hats should be avoided if you are dark skinned.If a purple hat is placed on top of red hair,one will look as attractive as a summer flower.Second,the height of the hat is also an important point.Tall women should not go for hats with tall crowns,just as short women should choose hats with upturned brims to give the look of height.Third,and most importantly,the shape of the face decides the kind of hat one should pick.A small,gentle hat that fits the head looks good on a small face.However,women with big,round faces should choose a different style.
As the saying goes,"Fine feathers make fine birds."A good hat can not only help your dress but also support your features,so why not choose the best possible one next time you want to be in public?

8.What does the underlined word"harsh"in Paragraph 1probably mean?C
A.Good.       B.Strange.
C.Poor.       D.Different.
9.According to the article,which of the following women would look most attractive?B
A.A big-faced woman who wears a small,nice hat.
B.A short red-haired woman who wears a purple hat.
C.A tall woman who wears a hat with a huge upturned brim.
D.A small dark-skinned woman who wears a black hat with a tall crown.
10.What does the last paragraph suggest?B
A.Hats are worn on the head to keep warm.
B.Hats can help you look better in public.
C.Hats are not as important as character.
D.Hats can make you look much taller.
11.What is the best title for the article?A
A.How to Choose a Proper Hat
B.How to Improve Your Features
C.How to Show Your Social Position
D.How to Design a Nice Hat.

12.There is something to be said for being the smartest or the most talented one in the room…too bad it doesn't help much in reality.Success,by any definition,is a team sport.I learned this little detail the hard way.
There was a time in my life when I thought that if I wanted to make anything out of myself,I'd be responsible for all of it by myself.I needed to know how to be the boss,the accountant,the creative director,and the salesman.Even if I hired or worked with others,I wanted to be the final say on everything.This was a brilliant strategy until three things happened.I learned I wasn't good at everything; I didn't have the energy to do everything; I failed.
The human is a social animal and our survival and success depend on our ability to find communities of people who share our values and beliefs.
When these communities form,trust arises.It is the community that has the greater chance of not only survival but success.In other words,asking for help is proven to enhance the possibility of our success.
Once I hit a point where I had no choice but to ask for help,things started to dramatically change.For one,I let go of the belief that I should do everything.There is not a single thing I'm doing these days that is not as a direct result of someone helping me.For example,some showed up to do specific tasks that I'm not good at---like accounting.
The more willing I am to ask for help,the more I am able to help others.I have transformed from working for myself to working for others which,ironically,has helped me grow as an individual more than I ever imagined.
Offer your strengths to others and you'll be amazed how many people offer their strengths to you.
32.Before failing in his brilliant strategy,the authorB
A.could have done everything well
B.tried to finish all by himself
C.never worked with others
D.considered himself the smartest
33.What did the author learn from his failure?A
A.Success cannot be achieved without help from others
B.Communities result from trust among each other
C.Only in the community are people more likely to survive
D.We should learn to share our values and beliefs with others
34.The underlined sentence in the fifth passage probably means that the authorC
A.has never done a single thing ever since
B.seldom personally does things these days
C.now does everything with the help of others
D.totally owes his present success to others'direct help
35.The readers are advised by the author toD
A.show off their strengths
B.expect to get the offer of help
C.express their thanks to others
D.offer to help others actively.

7.Human Flesh Search-thousands of individuals working to find and make public someone's personal information,mostly online-will be ruled as leaking personal data,which is against the law,according to China's top court.
Internet users or network service providers who leak people's personal information such as phone numbers,addresses,and clinical data will have to hold legal responsibility.
Network service providers will also be held responsible if they are aware that their users have violated others'rights but have failed to take action.
The decision comes after years of arguments over whether it's right for the public to try those who behave wrongly.
On the one hand,cyber hunting does have its positive influences.Some public officials have been removed from their positions after human flesh searches led to corruption investigations.During disasters like the Sichuan earthquake in 2008,the search method also helped many people to find their loved ones.
But many think that online cyber hunting is creating a threat to privacy."People's‘unusually high enthusiasm'makes the human flesh search engine phenomenon unique,"Xujun Eberlein,a Chinese American author and commentator,told Forbes."Participants often‘reach out their hands'thoughtlessly,violating people's rights instead of being righteous(正直)."
【写作内容】
1.以约30个词概括短文大意;
2.以约120个词就"Human Flesh Search(人肉搜索)"这一主题谈谈你的看法,内容包括:
1)你是否赞同文章提及的"禁止人肉搜索"的法案,请说明你的理由;
2)"网络时代,个人隐私如何才能得到保障?"请就此问题,提出你的建议(至少两点).
【写作要求】
1.可以参照阅读材料内容,但不得直接引用原文中的句子;
2.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称.
