二、阅读理解(共40分，每小题2分)
Passage 1
DNA is the whole “map” of the human body. It is something that all humans have, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of their DNA to make our own. People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time.
In 1860, Mr. Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called “genes” in our b ody. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that those small parts are really messages. They’re written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961, another two scientists found the first “word” that they could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell to build its parts. So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word ”means, we can help to save people from several illness. So the more we understand, the more doctors will be able to do.
Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more “words” and find out more information, we will use it in the wrong wa y.
16. Mr. Mendel discovered ____.
A. DNA is a map of body

D. understood that genes are written in the DNA with a special language.

A. better medicine
B. more jobs for them
C. maps for them
D. them attractive
19. Which of the followings statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. We look like our parents because of “genes” in our body.
B. We have understood what all the words in the DNA maps do.
C. DNA is the whole “map” of the human body.
D. DNA tells the cell to build its parts.
20. People think generally this research about DNA is ____.
A. ridiculous
B. astonishing
C. worthless
D. beneficial
Passage 2
Why do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.
The largest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.
“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of LiverpoolJohnMooresUniversity in the UK.
“Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it t o beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the ageing process.”
What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.
“This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men,” said Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. “The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart,” said Goldspink.
The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.
21. The underlined word “longevity” in the second paragraph probably refers to “____”.
A. health
B. long life
C. aging
D. effect
22. The text mainly talks about ____.
A. men’s heart cells
B. women’s aging process caused by heart cells
C. the gender difference
D. the effects of gender difference to heart aging
23. According to the text, the UK scientists have known that ____.
A. women have more cells than men when they are born
B. women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beat
C. the female’s heart loses few of the cells with age
D. women needn’t to do exercise to prevent aging problem
24. If a man wants to live longer, a man should ____.
A. enable his heart to beat much faster
B. find out the reason for ageing
C. exercise regularly to keep his heart healthy
D. prevent his cells from being lost
25. We can know from the passage that ____.
A. the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found out
B. scientists are on the way to finding out why the female heart loses more of the cells
C. the team had found out that the health of men’s heart can be improved
D. women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20
Passage 3
Fear and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess, if they are properly used. If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play it until their hands were burnt away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear did not, a child would burn itself again and again, because fear would not warn the child to keep away from the fire that had burnt him or her before. A really fearless soldier-and some do exist-is not a good soldier because he is soon killed；and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which men and animals might soon die out.
In our first sentence we suggested that fear ought to be properly used. If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. Even in your house you are not absolutely safe: a plane may crash on your house, or ants may eat away some of the wood in your roof, and they later may fall on you, or you may get cancer! The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but instead to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action to take.
In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example, you see a car coming straight towards you; fear warns you, you jump out of the way, and all is well.
In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you cannot prevent a plane from crashing into your house, and you may not want to go and live in a desert where there are no plants. In this case, fear has given you its warning; you have examined it and decided on your course of action, so fear of this particular danger is no longer of any use to you, and you have to try to overcome it.
26. Children would play with fire until their hands were burnt away if____.
A. they were not well educated at school
B. they had never played with fire before
C. they had no sense of pain
D. they were fearful of pain
27. Human beings will be extinct if ____.
A. they use fear to guide their life
B. there is too much danger
C. fear rules them
D. there are not fear and pain
28. People sometimes succeed in timely avoiding danger because____.
A. they have gained experience
B. they are warned of the danger and take quick action
C. they jump out of the way in time
D. they are calm in face of danger
29. What is implied but not stated in the passage?
A. too much fear is unnecessary.
B. Fear is always something helpful
C. Fear is something that can be avoided
D. Fear ought to be used as our guide in our life.
30. The best title for this passage should be ____.
A. No Pains, No Gains
B. Pains and Actions
C. The value of Fear
D. The Reason Why People Fear
