A
My interest in Chinese food started years ago, when I was a young reporter for Washington Post. Our office wasn't far from Chinatown, 1 I found some very good Chinese restaurants.
That was the first time that I 2 ( notice) the fresh taste of the meat and vegetables of Chinese food.
When I learned more about the food, I began to understand why 3 has this special feature.
B
Many years ago, China had 4 energy crisis because it lost much of its wood due to over population and poor management of its forests. This 5 ( lose) was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the food. Wood became very expensive and hard to get, so the Chinese had to either find a substitute for their 6 (value) wood, or learn how to use it better. There weren't any substitutes so people found ways to economize.
C
In order to economize in cooking, they had to use very little wood. So they started cutting
their meat and vegetables 7 small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the
food cooked 8 (fast) and they saved more fuel. The food 9 (prepare) in this way kept its fresh flavour—and it's this flavour 10 attracts people from other countries to the art of Chinese cooking.

A smile is a facial expression showing pleasure, affection and friendliness. And it is the commonest way to show our good will perfectly11 saying anything. A Chinese saying runs: “Never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that the smile is a language all its own — a12 language—understood by the people of every nation in the world. We may not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors,13 we smile in the same way. We need no interpreter for such a way of expressing love, happiness, or good will.

As a young girl I grew up on books. My fifth-grade teacher, Jody Delay, facilitated (促进) that love of books. Every day during the fifth grade I walked into a room with one wall completely lined with books. Mrs Delay had over one thousand books in her classroom.
She started the year off saying that she might give a book to any of us who showed such great interest in it. She had given a book to a student a few years before and I wanted to be presented with a book very much. So I checked out The Thief Lord by Cornelia Funke frequently. She never gave me the book, but I developed a deep love for Ms Cornelia’s s tories. I refused to watch the movie on principle.
My mom had requirements about what I was allowed to do according to what we believed. With Mrs Delay, I wouldn’t have to read anything that made my mom uncomfortable. I would pick up a book, look at it and consider it, and if it didn’t fit, she would gently take it away from my hands, explain to me that it wasn’t suitable and then point me in the direction of a better book.
What really made the difference in how I saw Mrs Delay was a spring break. I borrowed a book a day from her during schooldays, so I didn’t know what I would do if I was left without any new books for a week. Mrs Delay sent me home with a pile of books bigger than I was. It seemed to go on forever. I think I only managed to read about half, but I lied and told her that I read every one. The last thing I wanted to do was to have her be disappointed in me.
Every time I think about what made me into the book-lover that I am, I think back to that
spring break, and I laugh.
34.What does the auth or mean when she wrote “I grew up on books”?
A.She had many books of her own.
B.She had a great interest in reading.
C.There were many books in her family.
D.She was born into a bookseller’s family.
35.After reading The Thief Lord, the author ______.
A.became interested in its writer’s works
B.had a better understanding of Mrs Delay
C.was presented with the book by Mrs Delay
D.went to watch the movie with the same name
36.When the author was together with Mrs Delay, her mother might feel ______.
A.disappointed
B.embarrassed
C.relieved
D.worried
37Why did the author lie about how many books she had read during a spring break?
A.She was unable to finish all those books at all.
B.She didn’t want to make Mrs Delay feel unhappy.
C.She wanted to escape punishment from Mrs Delay.
D.She was afraid Mrs Delay wouldn’t lend books to her.
C
While many countries love their tea, UK citizens are particularly proud of being “tea people”. The average UK citizen consumes nearly 2 kilograms of tea each year.
Tea only made its way to England in large quantities in the first years of the 17th century. Tea from China and a few other Asian countries was being sold more widely in England at that time. Then tea was getting more and more popular among different social classes.
There are many varieties of tea. Black tea mixtures are still the most common type drunk in the UK. Black tea is dark in colour, because the leaves have been allowed to oxidize (氧化) before drying. This is why we usually serve it with milk, although it is not uncommon to drink it black or with lemon. You may still find tea made with loose tea leaves, served up in a pot, and poured into the best china cups with saucers (茶托) for visitors.
Tea is still a large part of daily life in the UK today, but it seems to be on the decrease. The amount of tea sold in the UK fell by more than 10% in the five years leading up to 2002, and has been dropping ever since. Tea sales fell by 6% in 2014 alone, and most restaurants report selling more than twice as many cups of coffee as they do tea. More than ￡1 billion was spent on coffee in high street stores in 2013, more than twice what was spent on tea bags.
Still, what goes around comes around; it’s sure to become fashionable again.
38.Which of the following is true according to the first three paragraphs?
A. Tea made its way to England in the early years of the 16th century.
B. The UK usually serves black tea with lemon.
C. Tea from China was being sold more widely in England now.
D. UK citizens take pride in being “tea people”.
39.What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?
A. Tea sales fell by 6% in 2014 alone.
B. Since 2002, the sales of tea has been on the decrease
C. In 2013, the money spent on tea was ￡3 billion
D. Most restaurant like selling tea than coffee.
40.What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?
A. It can never succeed again
B. The tea can become popular again
C. Coffee is more popular than tea
D. The tea is becoming less popular
41.What is the author’s purpose in writing the t ext?
A. To introduce tea in the UK
B. To show the author’s preference for tea
C. To introduce the functions of tea
D. To compare tea in China and UK
D
Why elephants rarely get cancer is a mystery that has confused scientists for decades. A study led by researchers at Huntsman Cancer Institute(HCI), at the University of Utah and Arizona State University may have found the answer.
According to the results, elephants have 38 additional modified copies of a gene that encodes p53, a well-defined tumor suppressor(肿瘤抑制基因), as compared to humans, who have only two. Further, elephants may have a more powerful mechanism for killing damaged cells that are at risk for becoming cancerous. In isolated elephant cells, this activity is doubled compared to healthy human cells, and five times that of cells from patients with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome, who have only
one working copy of p53 and more than a 90 percent lifetime cancer risk in children and adults. The results suggest extra p53 could explain elephants’ increased resistance to cancer.
＂Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer. It’s up to us to learn how different animals overcome the problem so we can adapt those strategies to prevent cancer in people,＂says co-senior author Joshua Schiffman, M.D., pediatric oncologist(儿科肿瘤医生) at Huntsman Cancer Institute, University of Utah School of Medicine.
But Prof Mel Greaves, from the Institute of Cancer Research in London, says we should focus on why humans have such high levels of cancer. He pointed to the rise of unhealthy, cancer-causing behaviours, such as obesity and sunbathing. ＂You’ve never seen an elephant smoke!＂ he added.
According to Schiffman, elephants have long been considered a walking problem. Because they have 100 times as many cells as people, they should be 100 times more likely to have a cell slip into a cancerous state and cause the disease over their long life span of 50 to 70 years. And yet analysis of a large database of elephant deaths estimates a cancer death rate of less than 5 percent compared to 11 to 25 percent in people.
42. Why are elephants less likely to get cancer than humans?
A. Elephants are bigger than humans.
B. Elephants have more p53 genes than humans.
C. Elephants are not as clever as humans.
D. Elephants eat more than humans.
43. What can we learn from the text?
A. More p53 genes contribute to resisting cancer.
B. Elephants have less damaged cells in their bodies.
C. A healthy human has only one working copy of p53.
D. Patients with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome must get cancer in their lifetime.
44. What’s Prof Mel Greaves’ attitude towards the discovery?
A. Doubtful.
B. Neutral.
C. Critical.
D. Favorable.
45. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Elephants have longer life than people.
B. There is no chance that elephants die from cancer.
C. The rate of elephants dying from cancer is increasing.
D. It was thought that elephants could get cancer more easily.

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

Rise and shine all day
Making these easy tasks part of your morning schedule will improve your nutrition, energy, and mood today—and beyond.
Stretch in bed
Try this even before you open your eyes. Lift one arm and begin by stretching each finger, then your hand, then your wrist, and then your whole arm. 46 . Then stretch your toes, feet, ankles, and legs. Finally, end with a neck and back stretch that pushes you out of bed. This “power pose” makes you feel more confident all day long.
47
Working out before you eat encourages your body to burn more fat for energy rather than relying on carbohydrates（碳水化合物）from food. In a study, participants who exercised after breakfast still gained weight, but those who exercised on an empty stomach did not.
Turn on the music
48 . If anyone plays an instrument, and if you have a little time, morning is the perfect time to practice, as it prepares your brain for learning. One study found that both playing and listening to music help improve academic performance in 16 different ways, including increasing focus and memory.
Enjoy some fun
Many people fear to face a new day of work, school, or chores.49 . This can be having a cup of coffee as you read your favorite blog, etc. Choose activities you enjoy and that set you on a good path for the day
You’ve improved your state of mind, your health, and your productivity—all before the weekday has even begun.
50 .
A. Pick something energetic that you and others in the house enjoy and put it on while you get ready
B. Now you’re ready to conquer your to-do list for today and every day
C. Do regular exercise in the morning
D. Move on to the other arm
E. Exercise a bit—On an empty stomach

Second, it might be a good idea for you to take part in more activities, which usually involve teamwork and interaction with other students and are therefore good for developing friendly relationships.
