【题目】 This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice; let the coin decide. I flipped () a coin and Ah! Tails (背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.

Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”

Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?

Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly: No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I deserved a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster’s office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip (跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.

1People in the class acted strangely because ________.

【题目】 The victims were carried in one by one, their paws burned and fur burnt, suffering from dehydration (脱水) and fear. Their caretakers bandaged (用绷带包扎) their wounds and laid them in baskets with the only thing that was familiar — the leaves of a eucalyptus (桉树) tree. As fires have burned more than two million acres in Australia, dozens of koalas have been rescued from burned trees and pale ground. The animals are being treated in rescue centers, and at least one private home, along the country’s east coast.

The difficult situation of the koala — a national symbol of Australia — has raised questions among environmentalists and scientists about what it will take to protect biodiversity (生物多样性) in a country with intense fire, extreme heat and lack of water. Australia has already been among the highest rates of species extinction in the world.

The bad situation goes beyond koalas. Recently, tens of thousands of bats fell from the sky in temperatures over 107 degrees Fahrenheit in northern Australia. Kangaroos destroyed the grapes in Canberra because of drought.

“Climate change and other human impacts have so changed the situation that the government needs to rethink its way to protect at once,” Dr. Bowman said, suggesting interventions (干预) like irrigating, feeding and moving animals to new places.

Koalas, unlike kangaroos, birds or snakes, do not escape from fires. Therefore, though the fires are still burning, a rescue team began to search the area carefully. Walking in a human chain, they looked up to the tree top, searching for survivors.

1What do the victims in the first paragraph refer to?

A.Animals injured in fires.

B.Kangaroos driven by drought.

C.Bats that fell from the sky.

D.Koalas rescued from the fire.

2Which of the following may cause the extinction of wildlife?

A.Wildfires that seldom happened.

B.Extreme hot weather in Australia.

C.The never-changing climate in Australia.

D.Not having enough money to take measures in Australia.

3What can we draw from Dr. Bowman?

A.Human activities have little influence on animals.

B.The government should take immediate action.

C.The government does not care about the wild animals.

D.Scientists are concerned about the bad situation of wildlife.

4What’s the best title for the text?

A.Saving the Fire Victims Who Cannot Escape: Australia’s Koalas

B.Saving the Endangered Wild Animals in Australia

C.Actions Needed to Protect Habitat for Koalas

D.National Symbol of Australia Needs Rescue

It is common that some people can accomplish very tough tasks while other can’t. In reality, no one can always avoid difficulties in life, but the results are quite differently. The difference lay in people’s different attitudes. Some people choose to face hardships bravely. We are determined to reach their destinations how many times they fail. Therefore, it’s just their perseverance which helps them make it in the end. Others may easily give up to whatever obstacle they meet, which can lead to nothing but failure.

In my view, keep on doesn’t necessarily mean success, but giving up absolutely means failures. If we can adopt such positive attitude, we are bound to achieve more than we expect.

【题目】 Why elephants rarely get cancer is a mystery that has confused scientists for decades. A study led by researchers at Huntsman Cancer Institute (HCI), at the University of Utah and Arizona State University may have found the answer.

According to the results, elephants have 38 additional modified copies of a gene that encodes p53, a definite tumor suppressor, as compared to humans, who have only two. Further, elephants may have a more powerful mechanism for killing damaged cells that are at risk for becoming cancerous. In isolated elephant cells, this activity is doubled compared to healthy human cells, and five times that of cells from patients with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome, who have only one working copy of p53 and more than a 90 percent lifetime cancer risk in children and adults. The results suggest extra p53 could explain elephants’ increased resistance to cancer.

“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer. It’s up to us to learn how different animals overcome the problem so we can adapt those strategies to prevent cancer in people,” says co-senior author Joshua Schiffman, M.D., pediatric oncologist (儿科肿瘤医生) at Huntsman Cancer Institute, University of Utah School of Medicine.

But Prof Mel Greaves, from the Institute of Cancer Research in London, says we should focus on why humans have such high levels of cancer. He pointed to the rise of unhealthy, cancer-causing behaviors, such as obesity and sunbathing. “You’ve never seen an elephant smoke!” he added.

According to Schiffman, elephants have long been considered a walking problem. Because they have 100 times as many cells as people, they should be 100 times more likely to have a cell slip into a cancerous state and cause the disease over their long life span of 50 to 70 years. And yet analysis of a large database of elephant deaths estimates a cancer death rate of less than 5 percent compared to 11 to 25 percent in people.

1Why are elephants less likely to get cancer than humans?

A.Elephants are bigger than humans.

B.Elephants have more p53 genes and mechanism killing damaged cells.

C.Elephants are not as clever as humans in walking.

D.Elephants eat more than humans.

2Which of the following can be the equivalent of the underlined word “suppressor”?

A.multiplierB.complexC.restrainerD.coordinator

3What’s Prof Mel Greaves’ attitude towards the discovery?

A.Doubtful.B.Neutral.C.Critical.D.Favorable.

4What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.Elephants have longer life than people.

B.There is no chance that elephants die from cancer.

C.The rate of elephants dying from cancer is increasing.

D.It was thought theoretically that elephants could get cancer more easily.
