ScienceThe Children‟s B ook-show Competition is a chance for young readers to be writers.Reading it seems, is coming back in fashion, if a survey by the famous National Literacy Trust (the NLT) is true. It shows that the percentage of children who admit enjoying reading has grown for the first time in the past 8 years.So it‟s a good time to launch a competition that includes a shed-load of new books for schools as prizes. The Children‟s Book-show Competition, backed by The Independent, is taking to the roads again from the start of next term, with a nation-wide tour of 15 big cities, featuring a line-up of a dozen children‟s writers and illustrators(插图画家)aiming to persuade pupils to follow their footsteps.The competition, launched by the children‟s writer and illu strator Jessica Souhami, has two categories: the under-nine‟s and nine to 13-year-olds.Children are asked to choose their favorite fairy or folk tale and set it in an extraordinary place.Then they are to retell it with the aid of drawings and writings-whether it is set at sea, on a distant planet, in the future or in the past. The closing date for the competition is 30 November.“Tell your tale in pictures and in words, ”say the organizers of the competition. “It can be in a picture book or comic-book format.”The winner of each competition will receive a signed copy of a book by each of the 12 authors involved in this year‟s tour, plus £150 worth of books for their school.

Mom then casually said, …Jerry, if you filled your th ermos with hot water and let it sit a while, your coffee would stay hot for longer then.” With her simple suggestion, his face showed that he was shocked by his own lack of common sense, well, of course it would!He poured out the small amount of coffee already in the thermos and refilled it with boiling hot water. Then he poured the water and refilled it with hot coffee. Mom smiled as Jerry did so.Words of wisdom from a loving mother-in-law made an impact that will never be forgotten. She never dreamed her words would be a treasured and everlasting memory in the heart of her son-in-law.The lasting memories don’t necessarily come from major moments in life.

After her followed six children of the family.Garner‟s dying moments on a Staten Island sidewalk last Thursday were recorded on by bystanders.Mayor Bill Blasio, who was elected partly because he once promised to mend the worn relations between New York police and the local ethnic minorities, has called the death a tragedy.In the videos, Garner, who was black, can be seen arguing with several police officers arresting him suspected of selling untaxed cigarettes outside a beauty parlor.Moments later, he was down on the sidewalk with an officer‟s arm around his neck, pleading(恳求) repeatedly that he couldn‟t breathe. After he fell down, at least seven minutes passed without any apparent attempts at medical help.The Staten Island district lawyer and the police department‟s internal affairs are investigating Garner‟s death.The c ity‟s police have been banned from using the chokehold for more than 20 years because it can be deadly, particularly when used on someone who is overweight, as Garner was.Two of the police officers involved have been put on desk duty and four emergency response workers were suspended without pay. Actually, a complete check of police training was started on Tuesday, focusing on the proper use of force.43. Which one is TRUE about Garner‟s death? ____A.

Police training must be reformedD. Black people can hardly avoid tragedies.EResearchers may have discovered a perfect material of dieting ----low fat cake and cheese.British researchers say they have created a protein (蛋白质) that mimics the taste and texture of fat perfectly.The proteins will enable food producers to remove much of the fat used in their products but without reducing product quality.Funded by team from University of Edinburgh, the researchers have produced the modified (调整了的) proteins that easily break down and therefore work nearly the same as the fats do during food production.“We‟ve paved the way for the development of modified proteins that can be used to produce a wider ranger of appealing low-fat foods,” said Dr. Steve Euston, who led the research.“The result could be important for health benefits, as well as a reduction in the burden on the National Health Service (NHS) caused by many weight-related he alth problems.”Protein-for-fat substitution (替代品) is not a completely new idea, but to date it has been limited to products such as yogurts.In cheeses and cakes it has proved less successful in ensuring the original taste and texture fundamental to consumer satisfaction, mainly because proteins could not mimic the behavior of fats closely enough.By studying the proteins‟ chemical structure, the team has developed a detailed understanding of how proteins behave when they are heated or go through other food producing processes.The proteins could encourage development of a wider choice of low-fat foods, helping consumers to eat more healthily and reducing weight-related health problems.The team has achieved particularly promising results in using proteins to replace eggs, which is commonly used in bakery items.Such substitution not only cuts fat content; because eggs can be subject to sharp changes in price, it could also cut the cost products and so encourage consumers to eat more healthily.47. What can we learn from the passage？____A. The NHS will benefit from this new finding.B. the research team is funded by food producers.C. Protein for fat substitution is a completely new idea.D. Products of modified proteins have been put on sale.48. The underlined word “mimics” probably means _____.A. reducesB. makesC. removesD. imitates49. These new proteins work nearly the same as the fats do because _____.A. they will cut fat content easilyB. they will break down easilyC. their products are cheaper and healthierD. they ensure the original taste and texture.50. Which of the following is best title? ____A. A Special ProteinB. How Proteins WorkC. Cut down the Food CostD. A special Research Team.第二节对话理解根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上。
