A dozen middle-aged men were seated at tables drinking heavily and talking 5 . Day after day these same men hung out

3、there and each of them had been a man of affairs and wealth, 6 in business and respected in society. However, it seemed that they are too content to be aggressive.

7、uld like to be our class speaker. Being a (an) 1 girl, I tried not to make eye contact. Seeing several classmates go up to the front to state why they should be the speakers, I felt a sense of 2 . But at last Ms. Lenihan 3 in front of us and said, “We will have another meeting this week, and I expec

8、t to see more participation. I am 4 that some of you are just sitting there when you should be up here!” When she said those words, I looked up to see she was glaring right at me. I felt so nervous, but knowing she had so much 5 in me, I should not let her down. After spending the whole week practic

9、ing a speech, I stood up in front of my classmates. There were eight to ten other participants, and I didnt 6 much for myself. When the votes came in the next day, Ms. Lenihan announced that the class chose me! I would have to stand up in front of our entire school to make a speech. My 7 level went

10、through the roof, but Ms. Lenihan told me she was glad that I had stepped up to the 8 . Over the next month I worked on my graduation speech. When I stood up in front of the whole school, I was still nervous, 9 when I looked at Ms. Lenihan, I remembered the whole reason I was up there was that she h

He was always in a good mood and always had something 1 to say, which really made me curious. One day I went up to ask him how he did that. “Well, life is all about 2 .

19、 Its your option how you live your life,” Jerry replied. Soon I moved to another city. Several months later, I heard that Jerry was seriously injured in the chest while skiing. 3 , he was found quickly and rushed to the hospital. After 8 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, he was 4 from th

20、e hospital. Later, when we met again, I asked Jerry what had 5 his mind during the accident. “As I lay in the snow, I knew I had two options: One was to live, the other was to die. I chose to live,” Jerry said. “The paramedics ( 急救人員 ) were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But whe

21、n they 6 me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors, I got really 7 . In their eyes, I read, Hes a dead man. I knew I needed to take action.

Led by expert Maria A Croyle, researchers have developed a thin sheet that preserves vaccines for long periods without refrigeration. This means the carefully c

25、ooled small bottles now used to ship vaccines could potentially be replaced by lightweight films that can be mailed in an envelope and stored on a shelf. Croyles laboratory began developing the technology in 2007. Inspired by ambers ability to preserve the DNA of insects, the researchers set out to

26、create their own version of the substance by mixing “a lot of sugar and a little bit of salt, much like hard candy,” Croyle explains. The vaccine-containing film is administered by mouthsweet news for many who dislike needles. The film is tailored to suit each specific vaccine candidate and provide

27、a protective coating. “Weve learned over time that the key to really stabilizing whatever the film holds is to have it intermixed with all the components,” Croyle says, adding that the process is quick and uses affordable, standard equipment. “We really wanted to come up with something that would be

28、 transferable to developing countries.” Immunization( 免疫 ) programs depend heavily on keeping vaccines cold(2-8) as they are transported, sometimes over thousands of kilometers to far-away locations. Delivery can be difficult and costly, and transport disruptions can cause the vaccines to be ineffec

29、tive. But this new product can store live viruses, bacteria and antibodies for several months at 20. In a paper published in Science Advances , the scientists show that the live viruses in one vaccine were preserved in the film even after 36 months. They also find that a flu vaccine suspended in the

30、ir film compares favourably with a traditional flu shot( 流感預(yù)防針 ). “The study demonstrates early proof of concept for an exciting platform for vaccine product development,” says Lisa Rohan, a pharmacologist, who was not involved in the study. She also notes that each vaccine type would need a custom

31、formulation( 配方 ) for future stages of development. Finding partners to mass-produce for clinical trials is the researchers most pressing problem, Croyle says. They are also exploring packaging methods to keep their films stable up to 40. Size is a major advantagea letter-sized sheet of the film can

32、 carry more than 500 doses( 劑 ) of vaccine, about 1900 the weight of the same amount of traditional doses. By making it easier and cheaper to ship and preserve vaccines efficiently, Croyle says, the technology could vastly improve immunization rates the world over, particularly in middle- to low- in

33、come countries. 1 What can we learn about the film? A It contains animals DNA B It will replace vaccines. C It comes in different flavours. D It can hold bio-products. 2 According to Paragraph 3, we can learn about the films _. A key component B development schedule C possible advantages D transport

34、ation requirements 3 The author mentions Lisa Rohans words to _. A advise personalizing vaccines B suggest the product is promising C prove the study is supported widely D stress the functions of a new platform 4 What will be the next urgent task for Croyles team? A Advertising the film worldwide. B

35、 Improving the films capacity. C Reducing the shipping cost. D Seeking ideal manufacturers. 2、 Albert Einsteins 1915 masterpiece “The Foundation of the General Theory of Relativity” is the first and still the best introduction to the subject, and I recommend it as such to students. But it probably w

36、ouldnt be publishable in a scientific journal today. Why not? After all, it would pass with flying colours the tests of correctness and significance. And while popular belief holds that the paper was incomprehensible to its first readers, in fact many papers in theoretical physics are much more diff

37、icult. As the physicist Richard Feynman wrote, “There was a time when the newspapers said that only 12 men understood the theory of relativity. I do believe there might have been a time when only one man did, because he was the only guy who caught on, before he wrote his paper. But after people read

38、 the paper a lot understood the theory of relativity in some way or other, certainly more than 12.” No, the problem is its style. It starts with a leisurely philosophical discussion of space and time and then continues with an exposition of known mathematics. Those two sections, which would be consi

39、dered extraneous today, take up half the paper. Worse, there are zero citations of previous scientists work, nor are there any graphics. Those features might make a paper not even get past the first editors. A similar process of professionalization has transformed other parts of the scientific lands

40、cape. Requests for research time at major observatories or national laboratories are more rigidly structured. And anything involving work with human subjects, or putting instruments in space, involves piles of paperwork. We see it also in the Regeneron Science Talent Search, the Nobel Prize of high

41、school science competitions. In the early decades of its 78-year history, the winning projects were usually the sort of clever but naive, amateurish efforts one might expect of talented beginners working on their own. Today, polished work coming out of internships( 實習(xí) ) at established laboratories i

42、s the norm. These professionalizing tendencies are a natural consequence of the explosive growth of modern science. Standardization and system make it easier to manage the rapid flow of papers, applications and people. But there are serious downsides. A lot of unproductive effort goes into jumping t

43、hrough bureaucratic hoops( 繁文縟節(jié) ), and outsiders face entry barriers at every turn. Of course, Einstein would have found his way to meeting modern standards and publishing his results. Its scientific core wouldnt have changed, but the paper might not be the same taste to read. 1 According to Richard

44、 Feynman, Einsteins 1915 paper _. A was a classic in theoretical physics B turned out to be comprehensible C needed further improvement D attracted few professionals 2 What does the underlined word “extraneous” in Paragraph 4 mean? A Unrealistic. B Irrelevant. C Unattractive. D Imprecise. 3 Accordin

45、g to the author, what is affected as modern science develops? A The application of research findings. B The principle of scientific research. C The selection of young talents. D The evaluation of laboratories. 4 Which would be the best title for this passage? A What makes Einstein great? B Will scie

46、nce be professionalized? C Could Einstein get published today? D How will modern science make advances? 3、 The spa town of Cheltenham sits on the edge of the Cotswolds, in the county of Gloucester. Below is a look at four fabulous attractions that make Cheltenham such a terrific place to visit. Chel

47、tenham Festival The festival is an annual, four-day feast of racing and, on the last day, features the famous Cheltenham Gold Cup Steeplechase. It's a dramatic race of around 3 miles and 2.5 furlongs. and the horses have to clear 22 fences. Anything can happen. In 2020,this last day of the festi

54、hink of kung fu? If your mind is filled with images of Shaolin monks, Bruce Lee, or Kung Fu Panda, you wouldn't be wrong. But for Laurence J. Brahm, an American documentary filmmaker, the first thing that springs to mind is the concept of non-violence. As Brahm explained, if you break down the c

55、haracter "wu" it consists of two characters: one is "ge" meaning dagger-axe; the other is"zhi" meaning to stop. So, the meaning of martial arts in Chinese is not the art of fighting, a concept that many people take for granted. On the contrary, he said, kung fu is the a

56、rt of stopping fighting. Brahm's relationship with kung fu dates back to the 1970s when he was a karate student in Hawaii. "My master always told me that if you want to fully understand karate, you have to go to Shaolin in China. That's where the origin is, "Brahm said. In 1981,he

57、managed to visit the Shaolin Temple, situated at the foot of the Songshan Mountain in Central China, for the very first time. He left the mountain, a little disappointed at not finding the martial-arts spirit he expected. But his passion for kung fu and his desire to find out more were stronger than ever before. Over the years he trained in many different styles, such as tai chi, Wing Chun, Jeet Kune Do to understand all of them. "Martial arts can help us connect our body, connect our neural system, connect our blood flow, a
