  I can still remember when I met my best friend.She had just moved into the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to   1   me.I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother,   2   to look at each other.Soon we lost the   3   and started playing with each other.

  In the 7th grade, I first lost touch with her.She was   4   family problems and I deserted her to be with the   5   people.None of my new friends liked her as much as I did because they knew she had   6  .However, every summer we   7   always sit at each other’s house and watch soap operas, and talk about all the boys we liked.

  It was last year when I noticed the problem.I guess I was   8   devoted in high school to   9   she needed someone there for her.Anyway, she made a new best friend and so did I.Then I didn’t know why,   10   she started cutting herself!

  She then was diagnosed(诊断)with clinical depression.At first, I was very   11  , but we still stayed in   12  .I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend basically   13   her and people were calling her   14  

  Yesterday she came to me and said, “I never knew what a best friend was  1 5   you were the only person that would stop me cutting.I   16   you so much, and you didn’t even know you were   17   me.”

  We both cried.And I guess a kind of   18   from my life so far is never to give up on your friends.Even if they aren’ t as cool as others, or people think they are crazy, they need   19   there.If you desert them, you will only be   20   yourself.

  Mary Masterman hasn't decided where she will attend college, but when she does, she'll have plenty of money to pay for it.The 17-year-old took home a $100,000 scholarship Tuesday as the top winner of the 2007 Intel Science Talent Search.

  "It was a complete surprise," said the senior at Westmoore High School in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma."I wasn't expecting it." Masterman earned first place at this year's competition by building a low-budget spectrograph(摄谱仪)- an instrument that identifies the unique characteristics, or "fingerprints," of different molecules.Spectrographs are used in a variety of fields, including astronomy, medicine, and law enforcement.They can sense the presence of explosives or drugs, and they can also help determine the age of a piece of artwork.

  Normally, the cost of a spectrograph can run as high as $100,000.Mary, however, built her device-which she crafted from lenses, a laser, aluminum(铝)tubing, and a camera-for just $300."I wanted to build one that was lower-costing so it would be more available to anyone interested in spectrography," she said.

  Sticking to a budget was only half the battle.Getting the machine to work was another challenge."I had to keep coming up with creative ways to adjust or change something," Mary admitted."It took three months to build and another three months before it actually functioned properly."

  Mary competed with more than 1,700 other high school seniors in this year's science challenge.Forty finalists were invited to Washington, D.C., where they presented their projects at the National Institute of Science.In all, 10 students took home awards for their innovative projects.

(1)

What’s the best title of the passage?

[  ]

A.

Oklahoma teen comes to a great invention

B.

Science competition for high school students

C.

The 2007 Intel Science Talent Search

D.

(2)

_________ is the biggest difference between Mary’s spectrograph and the normal one?

[  ]

A.

Use fields

B.

Function

C.

The cost

D.

The size

(3)

How long did it take Mary to put his spectrograph into use?

[  ]

A.

Three months.

B.

Half a year.

C.

About a year.

D.

Several years.

(4)

It can be inferred that the Intel Science Talent Search is _________.

[  ]

A.

a high-tech research institute of fine instruments

B.

an institute of science based in Washington, D.C.

C.

a most highly regarded science competition for high school students
