She explained to him the operation of a camera for a long time. Several times the head tried to say something, but he couldn't.

People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many people‟s diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.Today, we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. However, spinach does have something else which the body needs—folic acid.It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.51.A good title for this reading passage is______.A. Popeye the SailorB. The Truth About SpinachC.A Mistake with NumbersD. Folic Acid Makes You Strong52.Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?A. They thought spinach made them strong.B. They thought Popeye was funny.C. Spinach had a lot of iron.D. People liked folic acid.53.A research group told people that spinach______.A. made Popeye strongB. was a green vegetableC.had less iron than other green vegetablesD.had more iron than other green vegetables54.The reading passage says that perhaps Popeye got his strength from______.A. ironB. folic acidC. spinachD. exercise55.Folic acid is ______.A. something in foodB. a vegetableC. dangerousD. a certain kind of spinachCBody and FoodYour body, which has close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own, so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment (营养).The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away ”is not as silly as some people think.The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C.Many people take extra vitamins in pill form, believing that these will make them healthy.But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn‟t need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?In the modern western world, many people are too busy to bother about eating properly.They throw anything into their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illnesses caused or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening,56.“Your body has close relations with the food you eat.”It really means that ______.A.all kinds of food you eat can be made into your bodyB.your body is made up of the food you eatC.what you eat has great effect on your healthD.the more you eat, the fitter you will feel57.The old saying referred to in the passage tells us that ______.A.eating apples regularly does lots of good to our healthB.the apple is the best among all kinds of fruitsC.apples can take the place of doctorsD. an apple is a sure cure for illness58.In the second paragraph, the writer tries to let us know ______.A.our bo dies need food or we can‟ t liveB.often eating apples is a good habitC.taking extra vitamin pills is completely uselessD.a good diet is of great importance for our health59.In the modern western countries ______.A.people don …t want to pay more attention to their eatingB.lots of people‟ s illnesses are caused or made worse by bad eating habitsC.people throw everything into their stomachs without chewingD.people are only too busy to cook meals for themselves60.From the passage we can draw a conclusion that if we want to keep healthy,we should ____.A. only eat an apple a dayB. eat properlyC. take as many vitamin pills as possibleD.throw something into our stomachs slowly and carefullyDAt midnight on New Year‟s Eve, people in Rome, Ita ly, throw out all the things they no longer want. The streets are filled with old chairs, beds, clothes and dishes. In Madrid, Spain, the new year comes in more quietly. People flock to the main square. Each holds a bag of grapes. As the clock strikes twelve, the people eat the grapes— one for each stroke.In Tokyo people eat noodles on New Year‟s Eve. This food is said to bring long life. Early the next morning, some Japanese families climb Mount Fuji. There they watch the first sunrise of the new year.61. This story is about New Year‟s Eve in ____.A. Italy and SpainB. China and JapanC. JapanD. Italy ,Spain and Japan62. In Rome, Italy, the streets are filled with old things on New Year‟s Eve because __ .A.people throw out all the things they no longer wantB.the city has never been cleanC.people want to change back what they wantD.they want to see the sun come up63. In Tokyo, people eat noodles on New Year‟s Eve _____.A.because they like eating noodles very muchB.so that the daytime could be longerC.in order that they could live longerD.though they don‟t eat themEA lot of people think Scotland is a part of England , but, as any Scotsman will tell you , it certainly is not. In fact, until the eighteenth century Scotland was an independent country, with a parliament of its own. The English had tried many times over many centuries to bring Scotland under their rule. They succeeded at last in 1707, and some Scots have never forgiven them.Scotland is now governed from London, but in some ways it is still a separate nation. It has its own capital city(Edinburgh),its own law, and its own stamps, it even has a language of its own, spoken now by only a few people in the islands.In some ways Southern Scotland is like England, with his good farmland and low green hills. Central and Northern (the Highlands) have high mountains and deep valleys, fast rivers and cold lakes. These days, of course, there are good roads and railways all through Scotland. Aberdeen, the northeast city where the oil from the North Sea comes to land, is especially easy to reach. But it can still be quite different to travel in the winter when the hills are covered with snow. It always takes a long time to visit the beautiful but far-off islands on the west coast. One reason why Scotland has stayed so different from England is the wildness of the land. It has always been difficultto get around there.63. From the history of the Great Britain we can know Scotland________.A.had been an independent country by the 19th centuryB.had been a dependent country by the 18th centuryC.was a separate country before the 18th centuryD.was a dependent country before 18th century64. The first paragraph tell us _______.A.the Scots used to fight against the rules from England many timesB.the Scots defeated the English at all the battlesC.the Scots never defeated the English at all the battlesD.it was quite easy for the English to occupy Scotland65. Scotland has a language of its own,________.A.which is spoken by all the ScotsB.which not many people speak nowC.which is almost the same as English languageD.which the English prevent from being spoken66. From the third paragraph we can infer ______.A.there are no good roads in Scotland because of high mountainsB.there are no railways in Scotland because of deep valleysC.England has not any rivers and lakes in the center and the northD.England has good farmland and low green hills英语试题第一节：单项选择（共25小题，1分/题，共25分）1—5 DBCAB 6—10 DBBDA 11—15 BCCBD 16—20 BCDDC 21—25 CBDAD第二节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）26、D 27、C 28、A 29、D 30、B31、B 32、C 33、D 34、A 35、B36、D 37、C 38、B 39、A 40、B41、C 42、C 43、A 44、A 45、B第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）46-50 DADCC51--55 BADBA 56--60 CADBB61---63 DAC。

Some take over-the- counter (非非非非) medicines such as aspirin while others try popular home remedies (非非) like herbal tea or chicken soup. Yet here is the tough truth about the common cold: nothing really cures it.So why do people sometimes believe that their remedies work? According to James Taylor, professor at the University of Washington, colds usually go away on their own in about a week, improving a little each day after symptoms peak, so it’s easy to believe it’s medicine rather than time that deserves the credit, USA Today reported.It still seems hard to believe that we can deal with more serious diseases yet are powerless against something so common as a cold. Recently, scientists came closer to figuring out why. To understand it, you first need to know how antiviral (非非非非) drugs work. They attack the virus by attaching to and changing the surface structures of the virus. To do that, the drug must fit and lock into the virus like the right piece of a jigsaw (非非), which means scientists have to identify the virus and build a 3-D model to study its surface before they can design an antiviral drug that is effective enough.The two cold viruses that scientists had long known about were rhinovirus (非非非) A and B. But they didn’t find out about the existence of a third virus, rhinovirus C, until 2006. All three of them contribute to the common cold, but drugs that work well against rhinovirus A and B have little effect when used against C.“This explains most of the previous failures of drug trials against rhinovirus,” study leader Professor Ann Palmenberg at University of Wisconsin-Madison, US, told Science Daily.Now, more than 10 years after the discovery of rhinovirus C, scientists have finally built a highly-detailed 3-D model of the virus, showing that the surface of the virus is, as expected, different from that of other cold viruses.With the model in hand, hopefully a real cure for a common cold is on its way. Soon, we may no longer have to waste our money on medicines that don’t really work.(1)What does the author think of popular remedies for a common cold?A.They are quite effective.B.They are slightly helpful.C.They still need to be improved.D.They actually have no effect.(2)How do antiviral drugs work?A.By breaking up cold viruses directly.B.By changing the surface structures of the cold viruses.C.By preventing colds from developing into serious diseases.D.By absorbing different kinds of cold viruses at the same time.(3)What can we infer from the passage?A.The surface of cold viruses looks quite similar.B.Scientists have already found a cure for the common cold.C.Scientists were not aware of the existence of rhinovirus C until recently.D.Knowing the structure of cold viruses is the key to developing an effective cure.(4)What is the best title for this passage?A.Drugs against cold virusesB.Helpful home remediesC.No current cure for common coldD.Research on cold viruses13.（6分）Wood has many great characteristics that make it the perfect building material.It is cheap，durable，easily available，and most importantly，environmentally sustainable.The one thing it is not，is transparent! Now thanks to a team of scientists at Stockholm’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology the material may even be able to add that feature to its already impressive list.Lead researcher rs Berglund said he was inspired to create the transparent wood after learning how Japanese researchers had developed a see-through paper for use in flexible display screens for electronic devices.The team began by pulling out the wood’s lignin(木质素).The lignin-free wood was then dipped into a polymer(聚合物)and baked at a temperature of 158°F for four hours.The result was a hybrid product that was not only stronger and lighter than the original wood but also，almost transparent.The researchers were able to adjust the level of transparency by varying the amount of the polymer injected and also by changing the thickness of the wood.While scientists have previously created a see-through wood for small-scale applications like computer chips，the transparent wood is the first one being considered for large scale applications.The researchers，who revealed their findings in Biomacromolecules on April 11，picture using the transparent wood in buildings to allow for more natural light，or to create windows that let in the desired amount of light withoutsacrificing privacy.Wood that allows light to pass through could lead to a brighter future for homes and buildings. Berglund also thinks the wood could play a significant role in the design of solar panels.The semitransparent material would be able to keep light longer and give it more time to interact with the conductor，thus resulting in better solar efficiency.Additionally，substituting the currently used glass with this new product would help solar energy manufacturers improve their carbon footprint and lower the cost.They are now experimenting with ways to scale up the manufacturing process so that the transparent material is cost-effective to make and easy to use.1.What does the underlined part“that feature”in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.Cheap.B.Durable.C.Sustainable.D.Transparent.2.Which of the following is true according to the text?A.Berglund got the idea of transparent wood while making paper.B.Varying the amount of the polymer changes the wood’s hardness.C.The transparent wood would be used only for homes and buildings.D.The cost of making the transparent wood still needs to be cut down.3.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.The bright future of the transparent wood.B.The wood’s role in the design of solar panels.C.The disadvantages of the currently used glass.D.Solar energy manufacturers’ carbon footprint.三、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）14.（10分）When big news breaks,it's easy to get caught up in following the story online.The Internet can be a place to find useful information. 1 Helping kids understand the news and how to separate fact from fiction is an important job for parents and educators.Here’s some advice that parents can offer kids to help them be quicker to judge as they consume news online.2 In the rush to cover stories,reporters make mistakes,officials don't always have correct information and tidbits(八卦新闻）that sound reasonable often get passed around before anyone has checked them for accuracy.Use social media wisely.Some say Twitter is a great source of news in the first few minutes of a tragedy. 3 On the other hand,Facebook can be a great way to connect with friends affected by events in the news and to spread personal news within a more limited circle.Be skeptical. 4 After the Boston Marathon bombing,NBC Sports reported that some runners kept running all the way to the hospital to donate blood for the victims.Not true.There are plenty of websites devoted to exposing false news stories.The Washington Post also has a Fact Checker column that delivers claims made by public officials and politicians.Visit them to find out if a story is true.Keep it age-appropriate.Kids aren’t always ready to digest big tragic news--especially if the news is about kids,such as school shootings or abuses.The constant repetition of information can be confusing for younger kids,and at the beginning of a news event,parents might not be able to offer any correct answers. 5A.Remember,breaking news is often wrong.B.It also can be the source of misinformation.C.If something sounds too good to be true,it probably is.D.The government should take measures to prevent false news.E.However,after that it just becomes messy and largely inaccurate.F.With social media at your fingertips,it's convenient to express your opinion.G.Kids who are eager to learn more about certain events can check kid-guided news sources.四、完形填空（本题共计1小题，总分20分）15.（20分）In the summer before I entered middle school, I read the book They Cage the Animals at Night.

Here are the winners.DevotionAuthor Clare Vanderpool took home the John Newbery Medal for outstanding contribution to children’s literature for Moon over Manifest. The book is about a young girl’s magical adventures in a small Kansas town, in 1936.Vanderpool said that she was shocked to learn that she had won. “You grow up reading legendary authors like Madeleine L’Engle, but I never expected to be put in a category with her,” Vanderpool told TFK. “It’s fabulous.”Picture ThisThe picture book A Sick Day for Amos McGee won the Randolph Caldecott Medal. The book was illustrated by Erin E. Stead and written by her husband, Philip C. Stead. It tells the story of an elderly zookeeper and the animals that visit him when he’s not well enough to go to work.“I love drawing animals and I love drawing people and I love drawing the emotional connection between animals and people,” said Stead.More Honored BooksThe Coretta Scott King award, given to an African-American author and illustrator of “outstanding books for children and young adults,” went to Rita Williams-Garcia for One Crazy Summer. Set in 1968, the novel follows three sisters from Brooklyn, New York, who visit their mother, a poet who ran away years ago and lives in California.The king prize for best-illustrated work went to Dave the Potter: Artist, Poet, Slave. The book, which was written by Laban Carrick Hill and illustrated by Bryan Collier, tells the story of a skilled potter who engraved his poems on the clay pots and jars that he made. The enslaved potter, known only as Dave, lived in South Carolina in the 1800s.21. When she heard the news that she won the medal Vanderpool felt_________.A. depressed.B. annoyed.C. amused.D. astonished.22.

A Sick Day for Amos McGee shows us that animals can interact with humans.D. One Crazy Summer is about a mother with her three children having a holiday in California.BZheng Qinwen announced herself as a major new force in women’s tennis with an import French Open debut (首秀) last month. Now the Chinese teenager hopes the fighting spirit she showed at the Grand Slam (大满贯) tournament can encourage kids starting out in the sport to chase their dreams on the court with the same determination.“If tennis is your dream, I think you always have to fight for your dream. Because we only have one life, you shouldn’t have any regrets,” Zheng said last week in an interview.The 19-year-old showed she possesses the talent to be a contender at the very top level of tennis with a breakout campaign at French Open.Accounting for two-time Grand Slam winner Simona Halep along the way, Zheng’s journey was ended in the fourth round by a three-set defeat to eventual champion Iga Swiatek. Zheng, though gave the Polish world No. 1 a big scare, battling back from 3-0 down in the first set to force, and win, a tiebreak (平分决胜局)。

We all experience momentary bursts of anger every now and then. For the most part, though, these relatively minor annoyances are easy to deal with, but walking back your anger when you're having a heated conversation with someone is a lot more difficult. There are things you can do in the moment to calm yourself, though.1. Acknowledge that you're angry.When you're angry,you notice it in your body. 32 If you're not physically feeling it, you might hear it in the sound of your voice.Once you notice this, try to adjust your voice. Just as increasing anger can correspond to an increasingly loud voice, so can the opposite. 332. Give yourself a time out.How do you do the exercise above when you're in the middle of a face-to-face conversation? Call a personal timeout. Walking away gives you time to calm down and collect your thoughts before responding. This also aids in decreasing anger.Of course, don't just peace out of the argument. Let whoever you're talking to know that you just need a little physical space.3. Ask yourself what emotion is behind the anger.34 More often than not, anger is a “secondary emotion” we use as a mask or a defense for an entirely different feeling (shame, for instance, or embarrassment).Once you're aware of the real emotions at play, you can communicate it to the person you snapped at. Also, you'd apologize to your co-worker and perhaps consider asking your manager to lighten your workload.4.35Let's say you've taken the advice above, but you're still feeling heated. If so,changing the topic of conversation can also be a good way to cope with anger in the moment. 36 If you were discussing something serious-or something that needs to be explained finally-table the discussion for later or the next day, when you calm down.A. Change the subject of the conversation.B. Stop the conversation with your partner.C. Anger will do damage to your lungs and heart.D.Try responding to your loud voice by gradually lowering it.E.Now that you've calmed down, think about what's motivating your anger.F.Make a joke and reroute the conversation to a safe, calm, enjoyable dialogue.G. Anger will often cause changes in our body, such as muscle tension or sore neck.七选五：32—36 GDEAF山东省实验中学2020-2021学年度第一学期期中考试高二英语试题第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Mary waited anxiously for her turn in the empty dressing room.Never had she been so nervous before. This competition was of vital importance to her comeback(复出）。

“If I can win today," she said to herself, “I can dance on the national stage next month.” Three months ago, her left arm was seriously injured in a car accident. After the medical treatment, she began to recover slowly. She practiced over and over again in order to regain her dancing skills.“Hi, Mary,” in rushed her friend Jessica. “How is your arm? Is it going to influence your performance?”＂I guess it can be tolerated for I am to win the match,"said Mary with a determined look.“Admirable! But I hear that a girl called Linda is really gifted and strong. She can be your real well-matched e on!”After Jessica left,Mary decided to practice her most difficult spin. “If I don't try harder,I won't grasp this chance."She thought.But her arm began to hurt,making her worried."Mary, what makes you think you have a chance tonight?"she said to herself. After the pain was gone, she continued to warm up.A slim girl hurried in and put down an equipment bag on the chair. Then,she took out her dance dress quickly and put it on skillfully. Seeing Mary,she smiled politely and said "Hi,I'm Linda. I am the next one!" Mary nodded in reply but felt uncomfortable."This is just my competitor.Because of her,I may lose tonight."Her mind was wandering when Linda let out a scream,"Oh,God,I can't find my music tape!"Linda searched her bag but in vain. "It may be missing on the way."With these words,she then rushed out.注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

3．（6分）4Best Basketball Camps in the USAPGC Basketball Camps For the last few decades，PGC（point guard college）basketball camps have helped thousands of players improve a variety of skills.While the name may have you believe it's for point guards only，that's not the case.PGC basketball camps operate in a number of different states and they have over100 camps all over the country.While many of the PGC basketball camps are aimed at youth in high school and college athletes，there are also the Skills Academy camps for those as young as the4th grade.Nike Basketball CampsNike offers introductory camps，shooting camps，overnight camps，day camps and many more.There are even camps that let you work with former or current NBA and WNBA players.One of the best things about Nike camps are the quality of coaching and instruction you will get.They also operate innearly every state，so no matter where you are，there is likely a Nike basketball camp close.These Nike camps are also great for all ages.NBC Basketball CampsSince the early1970s，NBC（Northwest Basketball Camp）has been among the world leaders in the space.Whether you are in elementary school，junior high or high school，there is an NBC basketball camp for you.These camps are offered across the USA，as well as in Canada and even the UK.The camps they offer include clinics，team camps，overnight camps，and college prep camps，just to name a few.They aim to provide you all of the tools you need to succeed in basketball and in life.The National Basketball AcademyThe National Basketball Academy（also known as TNBA）partners with NBA teams like the Bucks and Pacers to provide camps，clinics，and training for basketball players of all ages.TNBA operates inMilwaukee，Orlando，Houston，Indiana，and Cleveland.It also operates in many other nations around the world such as Brazil，France，Argentina，and Spain.These camps and clinics range from a single day to multiple weeks.They also host various tournaments（锦标赛）so you can show off the skills you havelearned.（1）What do we know about PGC basketball camps？A.They have the most camps.B.They are mainly aimed at little kids.C.They hire some former NBA coaches.D.Not only students of PCC can join them.（2）What do NBC Basketball Camps and the National Basketball Academy have incommon？A.They focus on teamwork.B.They hold various tournaments.C.They only offer long﹣term camps.D.They operate both at home and abroad.（3）If you want to work with some NBA players，which camp should you choose？A.A PGC basketball camp.B.A Nike basketball camp.C.A NBC basketball camp.D.A TNBA basketball camp.4．（8分）When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance，the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list.Music is nice，people seem to say，but not important.Too often it is viewed as entertainment，but certainly not an education priority（优先）.This view is shortsighted.In fact，music education is beneficial and important for all students.Music tells us who we are，because music is an expression of the beings who create it，it reflects their thinking and values，as well as the social environment it came from.Rock music represents a lifestyle just as surely as does a Schubert song.The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions.Music expresses our character and values.It gives us identity as a society.Music provides a kind of perception（感知）that cannot be acquired any other way.Science can explain how the sun rises and sets.The arts explore the emotive（情感的）meaning of the same phenomenon.We need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason：No one way can get it all.The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols.They are ways we human beings"talk"to each other.They are the language of civilizationthrough which we express our fears，our curiosities，our hungers，our discoveries，our hopes.The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others.When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music，we take away from them the meanings that music expresses.Science and technology do not tell us what is means to be human.The arts do.Music is an important way we express human suffering，celebration，the meaning and value of peace and love.So music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize.（1）According to Paragraph1，students.A.regard music as a way of entertainmentB.disagree with their parents on educationC.view music as an overlooked subjectD.prefer the arts to science（2）In Paragraph2，the author uses jazz an example to.pare it with rock musicB.show music identifies a societyC.introduce American musical traditionsD.prove music influences people's lifestyles（3）According to the passage，the arts and science.A.approach the world from different anglesB.explore different phenomena of the worldC.express people's feeling in different waysD.explain what it means to be human differently（4）What is the main idea of the passage？A.Music education deserves more attention.B.Music should be of top education priority.C.Music is an effective communication tool.D.Music education makes students more imaginative. 5．（8分）New research into a long﹣lived tree has shown some of the tricks that have helped it survive for thousands of years.The ginkgo（银杏树）is a huge，slow﹣growing tree with fan﹣shaped leaves，native to China，but planted in parks and gardens across the world.Some of the largest ginkgoes are said to be more than3，000years old.In order to discover how these and other trees can live for so long，scientists from the US and China studied34healthy ginkgoes of different ages.The team studied growth rings in each tree's trunk（树干），as well as cells（细胞）from the bark，leaves and seeds.They found that600﹣year﹣old trees were just as healthy as2﹣year﹣olds.To learn more，the team then looked in detail at the DNA of nine trees aged between three and667 years old.DNA is the chemical in the cells of plants and animals that holds instructions that tell any living thing how to grow and develop﹣including what to do at different times in its life.At the beginning of a tree's life，DNA instructs the cells in a seedling to divide quickly so the tree grows rapidly.The cells also make special chemicals to help the young plant survive difficult situations，such as disease.As most treesgrow older，their DNA tells their cells to divide more slowly（so growth slows down）and to make fewer chemical defenses（防御）.Ginkgoes，however，do things differently.The team found that although their growth finally slows，both young and old trees make protective chemicals."The secret is keeping a really healthy defense system，"said researcher Richard Dixon."As ginkgoes age，they show no sign of weakening their ability to defend themselves from things like disease."Other trees that live for a long time may have the same ability.For all their defenses，though，ginkgoes cannot live forever﹣﹣they finally meet with deadlyaccidents such as fire，disease and storms.While they last，however，these leafy trees are some of the most beautiful trees in the world.（1）What do we know about ginkgoes？A.They first grew in China.B.The oldest ones are3，000years old.C.They are little known to the public.D.They are the oldest plants.（2）How did the researchers carry out their study？A.They mainly studied the trunks of ginkgoes.B.They studied ginkgo cells.C.They studied600different ginkgoes.D.They mainly studied old ginkgoes.（3）What is common in the life of most trees？A.Old trees are unhealthy.B.Their cells divide quickly.C.Young trees catch disease easily.D.They grow more and more slowly.（4）What's the secret of ginkgoes living so long？A.They produce special chemicals.B.Old trees grow as fast as young ones.C.Their defense system is comparatively strong.D.They meet with fewer diseases and accidents. 6．（8分）American track and field athlete Jacqueline Joyner﹣Kersee once said，"Age is no barrier.It's a limitation you put on your mind."And50﹣year﹣old Indian Lakyntiew Syiemlieh stands an evidence for this saying.She recently cleared her Class12board kytiew，who has four children and two grandchildren，decided to go after her higher secondary education over three decades after dropping outof school.Earlier this year，she was one of the24，267students who appeared for the state board's Higher Secondary School Leaving Certificate（HSSLC）kyntiew took part in the exams for the artsstream and had chosen subjects like Khasi，English，Political Science，Economies，and Education as her areas of specialization.On July13，2020，when the results were announced，she was excited."Though I only got；the third division（分段），my children were still so excited that they started shouting，hugging，and kissing me when the results were declared，"said Lakyntiew.In fact，the grandmother of two has expressed her interest in pursuing（追求）higher studies in the field of local kyntiew took up a distance education course offered

Before long a fellow in a canoe passed and shouted, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me."Soon the water rose to Smith's waist. At this point a motor boat pulled up and someone called out, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks, I have faith in God and he will save me."Later a helicopter flew by, and Smith was now standing on the roof with water up to his neck.

Some of the things you see give off light of their own. The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are examples that can be seen by their own light. Such things are luminous. Most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are simply reflecting light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies. The moon, for example, does not give off any light of its own. It is non-luminous. You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of it reflects in our direction. So moon light is only second hand sunlight.When you look at a book, it sends to your eyes some of the light which falls on it, and you see the book. If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light for the book to reflect, then you could not see the book even with your eyes wide open.Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you are reading to your eyes is so short as if there were no time at all. Light reaches us from the moon, which is about 380 000 kilometers away, in only a little more than a second.63. You can see the book because_______.A. your eyes are close to itB. it reflects some of the sunlightC. it has light of its ownD. your eyesight can get to it64. The underlined word “luminous” means_______.A. visibleB. all colorsC. giving off lightD. sunlight65. ________ have light of their own.A. The sun and the moonB. The stars and the earthC. The sun and the starsD. The moon and the earth66. Which of the following is true?A. All the things you can see give off light.B. Light from the book is much shorter than that from the moon.C. Light travels so fast that there is no time for you to read.D. The moment you open your eyes the light from the book travels to your eyes.DMost of us know about the Nobel Prize, especially the Nobel Peace Prize, but few of us know anything about the man who set them up. His name was Alfred Nobel. He was a great scientist and inventor himself. Besides, he had a big business. His business may surprise you. He made and sold explosives. Isn’t this something that surprises you? The man who made money from weapons should set up the Peace Prize?Though Alfred Nobel had a lot of money from weapons, he hated war. He hoped that there would be no war in the world. He was one of the richest in Europe. When he died in 1896, he left behind him a lot of money and his famous will. According to his will, most of his money was placed in a fund. He wanted the interest from the fund to be used as prizes every year. We know them as the Nobel Prizes. The Nobel Prizes are international. Alfred Nobel wanted the winners to be chosen for their work, not the country they came from.Alfred Nobel had given his whole life to his studies and work and to the benefits of mankind. He made money all by his own efforts, but he left the world share his wealth. His inventions and wealth stay with the world for ever.67.
