13、You’re rushing to school and a man ahead of you su ddenly falls down. Do you stop to help? In a study of bystanders, it was found that some people look away or keep on walking rather than stop and get involved.
“There is an inclination(倾向) to decide that no action is needed,” says Ervin Staub, a psychologi st at the University
of Massachusetts at Amherst, who studies the role of bystanders. “ The first thoughts that come into your mind often keep you from offering help.”
Time and again, good and caring people fail to come to the aid of others. They know they should act and yet, for reasons they themselves don’t understand, people sometimes don’t respond. Longtime researchers of bystander behavior continue to struggle with the question, “Why?”
One thing we do know is that the more ambiguous a situation is, the less likely people are to help. Let’s say you see vapors(水汽) coming out of a building. You ask yourself, “Is it steam(蒸汽) or smoke?” If you are not sure, you look to other people for a clue about how to react. If you see other people doing nothing, you th ink, “Of course, that’s just steam.” You don’t want it to be smoke, because then you would have to do something about it.
Another one is known as “ the bystander effect”. This says that the more people there are observing an emergency, the less responsible each one of them personally feels. For example, if you are the only person in the world who can act to save someone in a dangerous situation, you are more likely to act. However, if you are one of 100,000 people who could save the situation, you would be happier if one of the other 99,999 people did it!
“If you notice trouble, force yourself to stop and judge the situation instead of walking on,” says Ervin Staub. Then try to involve other people; you don’t have to take on all the responsibility of being h elpful. According to Staub, it is sometimes just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, “It looks like we should do something.” Once you take action, most people will follow you and also offer help.
1．Ervin Staub probably agrees that _____.
A．the bystanders force them to solve the troubles
B．people’s first thoughts usually prevent them from helping
C．the researchers often lead to the embarrassment
D．the person next to you often asks you to deal with emergency
2．The word “ambiguous” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_____”.
A．difficult B．dangerous C．unclear D．unpleasant
3．The writer uses “ the bystander effect” to show that _____.
A．people usually think others a lot before the difficulties
B．people like to carry out the responsibility in emergency
C．people often share their ideas when they’re in dangerous situations
D．people are likely to behave in the same way as most other people do
4．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A．Is it important to offer help?
B．Is it difficult to get involved?
C．To stand there or take actions?
D．To change the decision or stick it?
B
14、Life is full of surprises and you never know how things will turn out.
Sir John Gurdon is a good example of this. As a boy, he was told he was hopeless at science and was at bottom of his class. Now, aged 79，the very same Gurdon shared the 2012 Nobel Prize in Medicine with Japanese stem cell (干细胞) researcher Shinya Yamanaka.
Like so many scientists, Gurdon shows us where the power of curiosity and perseverance(坚持) can lead.
When he was 15 in 1948，Gurdon ranked last out of the 250 boys at his high school in biology and every other science subject. Gurdon’s high school science teacher even said that his dream of becoming a scientist was “quite ridiculous”.
In spite of his teacher’s criticisms(批评), Gurdon followed his curiosity and kept working hard. He went to the lab early and left later than anyone else. He experienced thousands of failures.
“My own belief is that we will, in the end，understand everything about how cells actually work，”Gurdon said.
In 1962, Gurdon took a cell from an adult frog and moved its genetic (基因的) information into an egg cell. The egg cell then grew into a clone of the adult frog. This technique later helped to create the sheep Dolly in 1996，the first cloned mammal(哺乳动物) in the world.
In 2006，Gurdon’s work was developed by Y amanaka to show that a sample(样本) of a person’s skin can be used to create stem cells. Using this technique, doctors can repair a patient’s heart after a heart attack.
“Luck favors the prepared mind,” Gurdon told the Nobel Prize Organization. “Ninety percent of the time things don’t work, but when they do, you have to seize(抓住) the chance.”

e. grow into a clone of the adult frog
A．b-a-c-d-e B．b-d-e-a-c C．b-d-a-e-c D．b-c-d-a-e
4．According to the passage, which statement is TRUE?
A．Sheep Dolly was the first cloned animal in the world.
B．Gurdon ranked first at his high school in biology.
C．It’s impossible for the doctors to repair a patient’s heart after a heart attack.
D．According to the science teacher, Gurdon was not a gifted student.
5．What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．Ninety percent of the time things don’t work.
B．Luck favors the prepared mind.
C．Life is full of pleasure.

16、"Tammy! Come here, please! Mother needs your help in the kitchen." Her father called out to her.
Tammy was in her room, getting ready to do her homework. "Yes, Daddy!" she replied. "I'll be right there."
She hurried out of her bedroom and down the hallway. She was only nine years old. Her elder sister, Ella, had just moved away to go to a performing arts high school in another city. Her brother, Harry, was in middle school and always got home late. With Ella leaving home, Tammy was expected to do a lot more than she had ever done before, especially now, because her mother was ill.
Her father was in the kitchen. "Tammy, I know you usually do your homework right now, but with things being different, we all have to change a little bit. I'll help you and Harry with your homework later on, OK?"

After helping her father with the dishes, Tammy helped set the table. After supper, her father helped her and Harry with their homework, and then they played a board game so that their mother could lie down for a while.

17、Have you ever noticed an advertisement which says "Learn a foreign language in six weeks, or your money back! From the first day your pronunciation (发音) will be excellent．Just send …" and so on? Of course, it never happens quite like that．The only language that is easy to learn is the mother tongue．And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learned a foreign language in order to read the literature (文学) of the country．
Now speaking the foreign language is what most people want．Every year many millions of people start learning one．How do they do it? Some people try at home, with books and tapes; some use radio or television programmes; others go to evening classes．If
they use the language only twice or three times a week, learning it will take a long time, like language learning at school．A few people try to learn a language fast by studying for six or more hours a day．
It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is spoken．However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary．They need the language in order to do their work better．For example, scientists and doctors mainly need to be able to
read books and reports in the foreign language．Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work．Machines and good books will help, but they cannot do the students' work for them．
1．Before the Second World War people learned a foreign language in order to ________．
A．speak to each other
B．listen to the radio
C．read something they didn't know
D．write the literature of the other country
2．The easiest way for us to learn a foreign language is ________．
A．using the language six or more hours a day
B．learning the language at school
C．studying the language in the foreign country
D．reading the foreign stories as many as possible
3．The passage mainly tells us that
A．the more you practise, the quicker you'll learn the language
B．it is possible for you to learn a foreign language in six weeks
C．it is not good for you to learn a foreign language by yourself
D．the quicker you learn a foreign language, the more you must pay for it

19、One possible version:
As a middle school student of Ezhou, it’s our duty to help build a green city. We can avoid
the traffic jams and reduce the air pollution by riding bikes or walking. We mustn’t thr ow rubbish or spit anywhere. In this way, we can keep our city clean and tidy so that we can live a comfortable life. And we’d better plant more trees to
protect the environment and make our city beautiful.
In my daily life, I can pick up rubbish and put it into the dustbin wherever I go. I can also
save the energy by turning off the lights when leaving the room. In a word, everyone can play a part in building our city.。
