21．（6分）Early excitement about the next generation of the iPhone is building months ahead of an expected autumn debut(问世). Analysts expect Apple to release three iPhones this year, but the one getting the most attention is a rumored
super-premium model to celebrate the iPhone's tenth anniversary. And, for that phone, Apple is expected to change the type of screen the iPhone uses.
Here's a quick look at what you need to know about what it means if Apple switches from its current liquid crystal display (LCD) screens to a type of organic
light-emitting diode (OLED) screen called AMOLED．
The essential difference between an LCD screen and an AMOLED one is the presence of a backlight. Thanks to that difference, AMOLED screens can be very thin, which means you can make thinner products. They also provide more vivid colors, which is a reason that television makers have been pushing OLED in its various forms for their big screens. AMOLED screens, in particular, boast(夸口) even greater control over each individual pixel （像素）— which means better contrast for the viewer. These screens can also improve battery life. Because there's no backlight, AMOLED screens can be more energy-efficient when the user is viewing darker subjects, allowing the phone to shut off pixels and stop drawing power.
So why hasn't Apple switched to AMOLED yet? After all, Apple competitors such as Samsung and LG already have these screens on their smartphones.
AMOLED screens are not cheap to produce. It's also not that easy to make the complex AMOLED screens, which could explain why most Apple fans expect that only the highest-end phone will have the new screen.
And then there's the cost. The switch to AMOLED has also been cited as a reason that the price of the high-end iPhone may jump above the $1,000 mark. Beauty, even in a mass-produced world, does not come cheap.
Still, the expense may be worth it, especially as people shoot more photos and videos.
1、According to the passage, when will the iPhone’s tenth anniversary most probably be held?
A．In June.
B．In March.
C．In November.
D．In January.
2、According to most Apple fans, AMOLED screens will only be used on ________ this year.
A．the cheapest iPhones
B．the most massive iPhones
C．the highest iPhones
D．the most expensive iPhones
3、What does the underlined sentence indicate?
A．It is very expensive to become beautiful.
B．Everything has a price.
C．The more you pay, the more beautiful you will become.
D．Practice more, and you will become better.
4、What’s the author’s attitude towards the expected iPhone?
A．Negative.
B．Critical.
C．Positive.
D．Uninterested.

23．（8分）For months fish that live in dark caves in Mexico go without food. They have gone far longer- thousands of years-without light, evolving to lose their eyes and skin pigments（色素）.Now researchers have discovered these strange creatures have another oddity. They survive their food-scarce environment, the fish have evolved extreme ways of turning nutrients into energy. These features create symptoms like large blood sugar swings that, in humans, are predictors of type 2 diabetes. But in the fish these changes are adaptations, not a disease. These cave fish lead log and healthy lives.
Understanding how the fish remain healthy in spite of these symptoms may lead to
new approaches for treating diabetes in people, says Cliff Tabin, a geneticist at Harvard Medical School. He and his colleagues are beginning to get clues about how cave fish survive the symptoms.
In humans and other mammals, one of the first signs of type 2 diabetes risk is poor control of Wood sugar (glucose). This happens because cells resist insulin, the hormone that signals cells to take in glucose from the bloodstream. If the problems continue, they progress into full-blown diabetes. The illness kills 3.4 million people worldwide every year, but current treatments often do not work.
The cave fish has, apparently, figured out another solution. The fish were washed from rivers into caves about a million years ago. It was a big change. Rivers were full of food but caves have only what is washed in by seasonal floods.
Because cave fish go many months without food, researchers assumed they evolved a metabolism(新陈代谢）that efficiently stores the calories in a similar way animals store fat before winter. To test that idea, they compared the cave fish with the river fish raised under same conditions in the lab. They found the cave fish do store more visceral fat than river fish. But the cave fish also had much larger, fatty livers, which resembled diabetes-linked fatty liver disease in humans. “But you don’t see destruction of the liver in these guys.” Tabin says. “It’s very curious.”
Cave fish researchers are now working to find out how the fish do it. “The only piece of total evidence is that the metabolic rate is lower in the cave fish than in their river fish relatives.” says Alex Keene of Florida Atlantic University. "There might be something about slow energy use in cells that protects against diabetes." he says, “Finding that something will, like fishing, require some patience.”
1、What interests researchers most in the cave fish is that .
A．they have evolved to lose their eyes and skin pigments
B．they have evolved ways of turning nutrients into energy
C．they have experienced no symptoms of diabetes in humans
D．they have survived from symptoms of diabetes in humans
2、It can be learned from Paragraph 3 that .
A．insulin disturbs the control of blood sugar
B．insulin takes in glucose from the bloodstream
C．insulin prevents the rise of blood sugar
D．insulin lends to progress into full-blown diabetes
3、Researchers study the metabolism in the cave fish mainly by .
A．testing the efficiency of storing fat inside them
B．comparing their fat amount with that in the river fish
C．comparing their fatty livers with those of humans
D．observing their livers storing fat with no destruction
4、It can be concluded that the features of the cave fish .
A．have enabled researchers to find out new ways to treat diabetes
B．have inspired researchers about new treatments for diabetes
C．have brought in many new ideas about how to treat diabetes
D．will be used as a treatment for diabetes in the near future

25．（10分）When TV news programs report wars or disasters, the editors rarely use the most horrifying pictures of dead or wounded vic tims because they don’t want to upset their viewers. Even so, viewers are usually warned in advance that they “may find some of these disturbing” so they can look away if they choose. But the men and women whose jobs are to record those scenes--the TV cameramen—have no such choice. It is their duty to witness the horrors of the war and record them, no matter how horrifying and unpleasant they may be. Consequently, it is one of the most dangerous, exposed and emotionally taxing job that the world offers.
Today, the demand for their work is rising. The explosion of satellite broadcasting and 24 hour news in recent years have created an almost insatiable(无法满足的)demand
for TV information. But major broadcasters and the TV news agencies--such as Reuters and WTN---have never had enough staff to meet the world wide demand for up-to-date pictures, so increasingly they turn to “Freelance” TV cameramen.
These freelance cameramen are independent operators tied to no particular organization. They will work for any company which hires them for just a few hours or for several weeks in a war zone. But if a freelance cameraman is injured in the course of the job, the TV company is not responsible for him. The freelancer must survive on his own.
“TV will always need hard, vivid moving pictures which are fresh, but these companies feel uncomfortable with large numbers of employees on their books,” explains Nik Growing, once foreign editor for Britain’s Channel 4 News and now a BBC news presenter.
“By hiring freelancers, they can buy in the skills they need only when they need them. It also enables them to contract out the risk,” he says.
1、The underlined word “taxing” in Para 1 most probably means_________. A．demanding B．striking
C．satisfying D．encouraging
2、TV news agencies turn to freelance cameramen in order to _______.
A．save expenses and avoid risk
B．get first hand information and pictures
C．look for pictures that are of fine qualities
D．buy the horrifying pictures they need
3、From the passage we can know that _______.
A．TV cameramen should be given better choice of work
B．TV cameramen are being challenged by the freelancers
C．TV cameramen have to witness disasters and killing whether they like them or not D．TV cameramen have to contract out the risks for their companies
4、The author of the passage shows his _______ the freelance cameramen.
A．respect for B．sympathy to
C．ignorance of D．admiration to

29、Dear Cassandra,
I am Li Hua, and I am a senior high school student in China now. First, congratulate you on having received 8 offers from the Ivy League universities, which is so amazing. I have some difficulties in English writing. I would appreciate it if you can give me some advice.
English writing is really a hot potato to me. When I write in English, I don’t know
how to choose the proper words. So my teacher is always confused about my writings. Could you please show me some tips about how to write like a native speaker?
What’s more, I will study abroad in the future. I am not sure what kind of challenges I will face. What should I do to prepare for the coming challenges? Thanks for all your assistance and kindness.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua。
