    A famous scientist was asked why he was able to be so much more creative than the average person . What set him so far   1   from others?

    He 2 that it all came from a(n) 3 that occurred when he was three. He was trying to4 a bottle of milk from refrigerator when he lost hold of the bottle , spilling its5 all over the kitchen floor .

    Instead of   6    at him , his mother said , “Robert , what a wonderful    7   you have made ! I have   8    seen such a huge puddle of milk . Since the    9   is done , would you like to get down and play in the milk for a while    10   cleaning it up ?”

Let′s go out in the yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can   16    a way to carry a bottle of water without dropping it .”

    The scientist remarked he learned from that moment that mistakes were just   17    for learning something new , which is    18   scientific experiments are all about . Even if the experiment “doesn′t work”, we usually learn something    19   from it .

    Wouldn′t it be great if all   20    would respond like “Robert′s mother ?

    Harvard University named historian Drew Gilpin Faust as its first female president on Sunday, ending a lengthy and secretive search to find a successor（接任者）to Lawrence Summers .
    The seven-member Harvard Corporation elected Faust, a noted scholar on History of the American South and dean of Harvard’s Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, as the university’s 28th president.
    “This is a great day, and a historic day for Harvard,” James R. Houghton, chairman of the presidential search committee, said in a statement. “Drew Faust is an inspiring and accomplished leader, a superb scholar, a dedicated  teacher, and a wonderful human being.”
    Her selection is noteworthy given the heated debates over Summers’ comments that genetic differences between the sexes might help explain the lack of women in top science jobs.
    Faust has been dean of Radcliffe since 2001, two years after the former women’s college was combined into the university as a research center with a mission to study gender issues.
    Some professors have quietly groused that the 371-year-old university is appointing a fifth president who is not a scientist. No scientist has had the top job since James Bryant Conant retired in 1953; its last four have come from the fields of classics, law, literature and economics.

    Faust is the first Harvard president who did not receive a degree from the university since Charles Chauncy, a graduate of Cambridge University, who died in office in 1762. She attended the University of Pennsylvania.

    “Teaching staff turned to her constantly,” said Sheldon Hackney, a former president of the University of Pennsylvania and historian who worked closely with Faust. “She’s very clear. She has a sense of humor, but she’s very strong-minded. You come to trust in her because she’s so solid.”
    【小题1】Which might be the best title for the passage?
    A．Harvard named its 1st female president.

    C．She isn’t a graduate from Harvard University
    D．She was head of Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.

    A．women cannot achieve as much as men in management
    B．women cannot hold important positions in society
    C．women can match men in science jobs
    D．few women make top scientists owing to genes
    【小题4】The underlined word “groused” in the 6th paragraph means       .

    阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从36—55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上涂黑。

    As a physician who travels quite a lot, I spend a lot of time on planes listening for that dreaded “Is there a doctor on board?” announcement. I’ve been  36 only once-for a woman who had merely fainted. But the   37 made me quite curious about how  38 this kind of thing happens. I wondered what I would do if  39 with a real mid-air medical emergency-without access  40 a hospital staff and the usual emergency equipment. So   41 the New England Journal of Medicine last week   42 a study about in-flight medical events, I   43 it with interest.

    The study estimated that there are a(n)  44 of 30 in-flight medical emergencies on U.S. flights every day. Most of them are not   45 ; fainting and dizziness are the most frequent complaints.  46 13% of them-roughly four a day-are serious enough to   47 a pilot to change course. The most common of the serious emergencies   48 heart trouble, strokes, and  difficult breathing.

    Let’s face it: plane rides are   49 . For starters, cabin pressures at high altitudes are set at roughly   50 they would be if you lived at 5,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level. Most people can tolerate these pressures pretty   51 , but passengers with heart disease   52 experience chest pains as a result of the reduced amount of oxygen flowing through their blood.  53 common in-flight problem is deep venous thrombosis（血栓）-the so-called economy class syndrome（综合症）.  54 happens, don’t panic. Things are getting better on the in-flight emergency front. Thanks to more recent legislation（立法）, flights with at   55 one attendant are starting to install emergency medical equipments to treat heart attacks.
