14、On May 2, 2012, Ashok Gadgil became the winner of the $100,000 Lemelson-MIT Award for Global Innovation (全球创新奖). Each year, the honor is given to an inventor who has made a big difference in the lives of people in developing countries. Gadgil is a professor and physicist at the University of California, Berkeley. He spent thirty years helping people in need. His inventions have helped more than 100 million people around the world. “I chose to focus on problems where my knowledge of science could hel p,” Gadgil said.
In the 1990s, Gadgil designed his first life-saving invention after more than 10,000 people died from Bengal cholera (孟
加拉霍乱) because of the clean water crisis (危机) in India. His invention uses ultraviolet light to kill deadly
disease-carrying germs (细菌) from drinking water. It costs just one cent to clean five liters of water (about 21 cups). So far, the invention has provided safe drinking water for more than five million people in India and other developing countries.
Gadgil’s another imp ortant invention is the Berkeley-Darfur Stove (炉具). The long and violent war in Darfur, Sudan, has caused many people to move to foreign countries and live in refugee camps (难民营). They are given food aid. But people still have to travel a long distance five times a week to gather firewood to cook meals. This can be dangerous because of street violence in the area. To avoid danger, some spend much of their money used to feed their families buying firewood.
The stove Gadgil created cuts fuel usage by 55%. Tha t means people wouldn’t have to leave the camps to find firewood as often. The invention also helps to save homes more than $300 a year. About 125,000 people and their families have been helped.
As a professor, Gadgil encourages his students, “Be optimisti c (乐观的) when you try a hard problem,” he says. “It’s when you solve a large problem that you can have a big influence on the world.”

16、In the eyes of many Westerners, Chinese are the best hosts (主人) but the worst guests in the world. This is probably because the guest-host relationship in China is much different from that in some Western countries.
In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person’s home, there is always fruit on the table for
me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the West, things are different. Acting according to the host’s way of doing things is usual behavior for a gues t.
And there are lots of things Westerners find difficult to adapt to. For example, my mother-in-law doesn’t smoke. So when I see some of her guests smoking in her house. As a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly. But I must rea lize that, to be a good host in China, she mustn’t do that. However, in most North American homes, you should not smoke in the same case. Y ou could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke?” But don’t be surprised if you get a “no”. In our culture, it’s not considered ru de at all.
In China, you probably won’t need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. But if western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.
1．Many Westerners think Chinese are the worst guests because ________.
A．Chinese act like gods in their home B．they don’t expect gifts from Chinese
C．there are cultural differences D．Chinese are heavy smokers
2．When a Western guest visits a Chinese family, he often ________ .
A．buys some fruit B．feels like a god
C．wants some gifts D．takes a cup of tea
3．If the writer’s guests want to smoke in his house, he will probably say “________”
A．It’s OK. Go ahead. B．Would you like a cigarette (香烟)?
C．Smoking is a bad habit. D．Sorry, please don’t smoke here.
4．In the passage, the underlined phrase “adapt to” probably means “________”.
A．think back to B．get used to
C．look forward to D．keep close to
5．When it comes to the guest-host relationship, the writer thinks ________.
A．foreigners should learn from Chinese
B．hosts must do things in the guests’ way
C．Western hosts are always nice to guests
D．people should understand cultural differences

18、When you meet someone for the first time, you will get a quick idea in your mind of that person in the first moment. Your feelings about other people, however, are really just show the way that you look at yourself.
So you can allow others to be the mirror to see your own feelings of self-worth more clearly. And,you can see the people you don’t like as mirrors to show you what you are not accepting about yourself.
To live peacefully with others, you will need to learn patience. A big challenge is to let your judgment of others be a lifelong research of yourself. Your task is to consider all the judgments you make onto others carefully and to begin to see whether you can use them to help yourself to become better.
Several days ago I had a business lunch with a man who showed objectionable table manners. My first feeling was that
he was impolite. When I noticed that I was judging him, I stopped and asked myself what I was feeling. I discovered that I was nervous to be seen with someone who was eating with his mouth open.I was very surprised to find how much I cared about how the other people in the restaurant judged me.
Remember that your judgment of someone will not stop you from becoming like him. Just because I think my lunch partner impolite, it does not prevent me from looking or acting like him. In the same way, my patience to him would not make me eat food with my mouth open.
When you get close to life in this way, those whom you hate and those whom you love can be seen as mirrors, guiding you to discover parts of yourself that you dislike and to accept your greatest personalities you are proud of.
1．When we judge others, we are really .
A．beginning to know them B．treating them in a polite way
C．showing what we ourselves are D．telling them what they should do
2．The writer felt nervous when he was with his lunch partner because .
A．he was afraid to be influenced by his lunch partner
B．he was too angry to go on with his lunch any more
C．he was afraid he might be thought badly of by others
D．he was too surprised at the manners of his lunch partner
3．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “objectionable”?
A．unknown B．unacceptable C．unfair D．unreasonable
4．What is the best title for this passage?
A．An Impolite Lunch Partner B．Pay Attention to Our Manners
C．How to Judge Others Properly D．Know Ourselves by Judging Others

19、How to Protect Our Lives
It is very important for us to know how to treasure and protect our lives.
First of all, we should obey the traffic rules and pay attention to traffic safety.
Secondly, we should not chase and fight in school. Don't climb trees, don't play dangerous games.
Thirdly, we should eat some healthy foods, such as vegetables, fruits, and so on. They are able to help us maintain a
healthy body.
Finally, a good sleep can also assure us a healthy body. We should sleep seven to eight hours a day to maintain adequate sleep.
If we can learn to treasure and protect ourselves, I believe we can have a healthy body and a better life.。
