    Researchers in China and the United States have developed a new cataract(白内障)treatment with cells that has restored vision in babies in a trial and may eventually be used in adults.

    The treatment- by doctors and staff members at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and Sichuan and Sun Yat-sen universities in China-was published in March 9 edition of the scientific journal Nature.

    A cataract is a clouding of the normally clear lens(晶体)of an eye. Typical cataract operation involves the removal of the cloudy lens and the insertion of an artificial one. The new operation has been tested in animals and during a small, human trial. It resulted in fewer complications(并发症)than the current harmful operation, and in regrown lenses with superior visual function in all 12 of the baby cataract patients who received the procedure.

    A congenital cataract- lens clouding that occurs at birth or shortly after- is important cause of blindness in children. In the new research, Kand Zhang, head of ophthalmic genetics at US San Diego’s Shiley Eye Institute, and his colleagues relied on the regrown potential of endogenous(同源的)stem cells.

    According to Zhang, endogenous stem cells are different from other stem cells that are typically grown in a laboratory, transplanted into a patient, and can have risks of immune（免疫的）rejection, infection or cancers. Zhang told CBS News, “We invented a new operation to make a very small opening at the side of a cataractous lens bag, remove the cataract inside, allow the opening to heal, and promote potential lens stem cells to regrow an entirely new lens with vision.”

    The human trial involved 12 babies under the age of 2 who were treated with the new method, while 25 babies received thee standard operation care.. The latter group experienced a higher incidence of pos- operation danger, early- onset eye high blood pressure and increased lens clouding. The scientists reported fewer complications and faster healing among the 12 babies who has the new procedure.

    A. The concept of the cataract

    B. A new cataract treatment with stem cells

    C. Bad effects of post-operation in the cataract

    D. The reasons why the cataract comes into being

    2.Which of the following best describe the new cataract treatment according to the passage?

    A. It has more risks

    B. It may be used widely

    C. It has been put into practice widely

    D. It can only restore vision in babies

    Last year, during the summer holiday, I found part-time job, worked in a toothbrush factory at night. Not until I experienced it did I realized that it was no easy job.I went to work when my parents were going to bed. On the morning, when my parents were going to work, I came to home to sleep. This backward schedule was very tough for me that I often felt tiring. But I am glad that I had this unforgettable experience. Not only is it fun to “rise and shine” along with the moon or stars, but also I had learned to appreciate the hard work of those which are working while the rest of us are sleeping.

    Yuoki, a restaurant in Germany, is not your everyday all-you-can-eat buffet (自助餐）. For starters, there isn't an actual buffet to fill your plate. Instead, customers are seated at a table and provided with iPads which they can use to order up to five small dishes every ten minutes. They can eat as much as they want for 120 minutes, but having the food served at short intervals (间隔) allows diners to constantly assess how hungry they are and order accordingly, preventing food waste. Also, the owner, Luan Guoyu, believes, “our eyes are bigger than our stomach”, so not being able to see the cooked food at the buffet prevents people from ordering more food than they can actually eat.

    But Luan Guoyu's most effective way of fighting food waste, and the one that has attracted media attention, is his ?1 ($1.15) fine for food still left on the plate. “It’s called ‘ all-you-can-eat’ ” he says, adding that the extra charge is not meant to increase his income, but to act as a warning against wasting food.

    Luan Guoyu's system is unique in the state of Baden-Wurttemberg, but not in Germany. Okinii, a Japanese-style restaurant in Dusseldorf, has also been charging customer, the same ? 1 tax for unfinished food on their plates since 2013.

    With so many people living on the edge of their nations, and food waste becoming a serious problem in developed countries, it will be interesting to see if more restaurants will start carrying out the “eat up or pay up” policy. Even if they give the money from this fine to charity, it would still help them to save money in dealing with waste, so it's a win for everyone.

    1.What does the underlined word “assess” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

    A. Doubt. B. Realize.

    C. Judge. D. Compare.

    2.What will Luan Guoyu do when people can’t finish the food on their plates?

    A. He will charge them extra money.

    B. He will advise them to eat up the food.

    C. He will ask them to take the food away.

    D. He will warn them to order less food next time.

    3.What is the text mainly about?

    A. Various German restaurants.

    B. The seriousness of food waste.

    C. Secrets of managing a restaurant.

    D. Special ways to fight food waste.

    4.What does the author think of the “eat up or pay up” policy?

    A. Unfair. B. Funny.

    C. Reasonable. D. Doubtful.

    科目：高中英语 来源：2017年全国普通高等学校招生统一考试历史（海南卷正式版） 题型：简答题

    根据材料并 结合所学知 识回答问题。（15分）

    材料 宋太祖赵匡胤本为后周殿前都点检，960年，奉命御辽。到达陈桥驿时，发生兵变，赵匡胤黄袍加身，取代后周建立宋王朝，史称“陈桥兵变”。

    对“陈桥兵变”，宋初众说纷纭，《太祖实录》亦语焉不详。宋太宗赵匡义命重修《太祖实录》，说：“史官之职，固在善恶必书，无所隐晦”，“太祖之事周朝也，尽力王室，中外所知。至于大宝（皇位），非有意也”。太宗特地指出，时值契丹入侵，太祖率兵出击，一日醉卧帐中，众将士云集，强拥太祖为皇帝，此乃时势所趋，并非人力所为。

    今人研究认为，赵匡胤制造辽（契丹）与北汉联兵南下的假情报，宰相范质等人不明真相，匆忙派遣赵匡胤率诸军北上抵御。大军行至陈桥驿，赵匡胤弟赵匡义等受意发动兵变，将士们把黄袍加在赵匡胤身上，拥立他为天子。

    ——摘编自张岂之主编《中国历史》等

    （1）根据材料，概括说明宋太宗对“陈桥兵变”的解释与今人研究的结果有何不同。（6分）

    （2）根据材料并结合所学知识，简析宋太宗重修《太祖实录》关于“陈桥兵变”记载的原因。（9分）
