【题目】Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

A recent study, while showing a generally positive attitude toward science, also suggests a widespread worry that it may be "running out of control". This idea is dangerous.

Science can be a force for evil as well as for good. Its 1 can be channeled either way, depending on our decisions. The decisions we make, personally or collectively, will 2 the outcomes of science. But here is a real danger. Science 3 so fast and is so strongly influenced by businesses that we are likely to believe whatever decisions we come to will make little difference. And, rather than fighting for the best possible policies, we may step back and do nothing.

Some people go even further. They say that despite the 4 and legal objections (反对), whatever is scientifically possible will be done-somewhere , sometime. They believe that science will get out of control in the end. This belief is dangerous too, because it fuels a sense of hopelessness and 5 them from making efforts to build a safer world.

In our interconnected world, the 6 of agreement in and out of the world of science can lead to the failure to control the use of science. Without a 7 understanding, the challenges of "controlling" science in this century will be really tough. Take human cloning for example. Despite the general agreement among scientists on its possible huge 8 on traditional moral values, some countries still go ahead with the research and development of its related techniques. The 9 are hard to predict.

Therefore, discussions on how science is applied should be extended far beyond scientific societies. Only through the untied 10 of people with hope, can we be fully safe against the misuse of science and can science best serve mankind in the future.

【题目】

Is running a marathon in under two hours possible? Will a human ever be able to run that fast? Currently, the world record for the 42.195 km (26.219 miles) distance is held by Kenyan Dennis Kimetto. His time of 2:02:57 hours was achieved at the Berlin Marathon of 2014.

For many years, long-distance runners have been trying to get nearer and nearer to the magical mark of two hours. Studies published in the past by medical and athletic experts have come to the conclusion that running a marathon in under 2 hours can be done. They even see a time of around 1:57 as the fastest a human can ever run. However, we will have to wait at least a decade or longer for this to happen.

Many things must fit together to deliver an under two-hour marathon. An athlete would have to have the perfect body size and weight, the right running strategy and of course, the right nutrition. Today's most perfect runners come from Kenya and Ethiopia, countries that have dominated (统治) long-distance races for decades. East African athletes have long legs and lungs that can take in lots of oxygen. Training at high altitudes gives them a strong heart and a very large blood volume (容量).

Ideal weather conditions with cool temperatures and almost no wind will also be needed to attempt such a quick time. An ultra-fast marathon would only be possible on flat city courses, like Berlin or London, with few curves (弯道).

Since the beginning of the modern Olympic Games in 1896, athletes have tried to run long-distance races as fast as possible. In 1900, the marathon world record was around 3 hours. In the following 30 years, men were able to reach a mark of 2:30. As time went on achieving faster times became more and more difficult. In the last 15 years, for example, the world record has improved by only 3 minutes.

On the other hand, some experts think that such fast performances will only be possible with the help of illegal drugs or substances (物质). In the past years, several East African runners have been tested positive and many of them banned.

1What are Paragraphs 3 & 4 mainly about?

A.The benefits of running a marathon.

B.The conditions for an under two-hour marathon.

C.The development of modern long-distance races.

D.Perfect runners who can compete in a marathon.

2Which of the following does the author agree with?

A.East Africans are born to be long-distance runners.

B.It's impossible to beat the marathon world record again.

C.More and more athletes are losing their interest in marathons.

D.It's easier to achieve a marathon world record in Berlin than in London.

3What's the author's attitude towards running a marathon in under 2 hours?

A.Hopeful.B.Doubtful.

C.Uncertain.D.Uninterested.

4What's the main purpose of the text?

A.To inform.B.To discuss.

C.To educate.D.To persuade.

Last week I noticed Jack coughing on our math class. See this, I offered to take him to a clinic. There the doctor asked Jack how he had coughed sometimes for long time. Jack nodded his head immediate. The doctor then wrote a prescription with instruction on how to take the Chinese medicine. When Jack tasted the medicine, he almost brings it up. I comforted him with an old saying “Good medicine for health tastes bitter to the mouth”. Jack managed to swallow them unwillingly. But when he had recovered three days later, he felt amazing at the effect of the Chinese medicine.
