Including astronauts, biologists, chemists, coders, doctors and physicists, it features fun facts about everyone from Hippocrates and Leonardo da Vinci through to Marie Curie and Stephen Hawking.Rosalind Franklin: A Life StoryRosalind Franklin was the scientist whose contribution to a crucial discovery in DNA — the chemical that tells your body how to grow and develop — was not recognized until after her death. This book shines a light on the extraordinary story of her life and achievements, using timelines, illustrations and fascinating facts.40 Inspiring Icons: Super ScientistsEach part of this colourful illustrated book introduces you to a different “super scientist” and their discoveries.

As a young man, he had the alternative of working in the city with his brother. But he decided that urban life was not for him. He preferred to isolate himself from others and find shelter in nature from the crowds and noise of the city. He was more than willing to give up such advantages as flush toilets and electric blankets for the joy of watching a sunrise illuminate the frozen pines.Because Nate had lived alone for so long, his behavior was unpredictable. For example, one minute he’d be very quiet, and the next he’d talk about his youth. His knowledge of nature was extensive, and so I learned much from him through the years.I will tell you an interesting story that shows how wise he was about the woods and how miserly (吝啬的) he could be with words. One evening Nate, my cousin Arthur, and I were crossing a grassland. Arthur’s interest in some little white mushrooms that were growing there led to this dialogue:“These mushrooms look so good,” said Arthur. “Did you ever use them, Nate?”“Yep,” said Nate. “My mom used to cook them up.”“Great!” said Arthur. Nate’s words seemed to strengthen Arthur s desire for those mushrooms. He gathered about a hundred of them. “How did she prepare them?” he asked Nate.“Cooked them up in sugar water.”“Really? And then you ate them that way?”“Ate them?” Nate was horrified. “You crazy? We used to put them in a bowl on the table to kill flies!”4.Which can make Nate happier?A.Working in the city.B.Quitting flush toilets.C.Using electric blankets.D.Enjoying sunrises in the woods.5.Nate is a man with ________.A.ambition B.courage C.knowledge D.imagination 6.What do we know about the white mushrooms?A.They were delicious.B.Nate ate them very often.C.They might be poisonous.D.Arthur’s mother used to cook them.7.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Far From NatureB.White Mushrooms C.Nate the WoodsmanD.Advantages of Urban LifeOver the next 20 years, we are going to send more and better robots to Mars. Those robots will send back better pictures, maps, samples, and weather reports. There is a limit to what robots can tell us, though, so eventually we will have to send people to study the planet. Before people can visit Mars, we need to invent a ceship that can take us there. Mars is very far away. Depending on where Mars and Earth are in their orbits (轨道) around the sun, it could take between six months to a year to get there.The moon is much closer, and we were there, 25 years ago. Over the next 10 years, we are going to work on building a new cecraft that can go to the moon. Using this craft, we will practise the skills we need to go to Mars.Once we get to the moon, we are going to build a station so that people can live and work on the moon for months at a time. This is important so that we have a place to start from when we want to visit Mars, but it is also important because it gives us practice with living away from Earth.By the time you are old enough to be an astronaut, we will have people spending months on the moon. By the time you are old enough to be a commander of a ce mission we will be taking trips to Mars. By the time your kids are old enough to be astronauts, we may have people living on Mars. Wouldn’t it be cool to get a postcard from someone who was building a house on Mars? Wouldn’t it be cooler if it was you who sent the postcard?8.We eventually have to send people to Mars because_________.A.the pictures that robots have sent back are not very clearB.robots can’t tell us all we want to knowC.robots are controlled by us humansD.the samples robots have sent back are not good enough9.From the first paragraph we can see the distance between Earth and Mars________ .A.is not always the sameB.is nearly the sameC.is unchangeableD.never changes very much10.A ce station on the moon is important because________ .A.people can learn to adapt to living on other planetsB.people can practise planting crops in itC.the new cecraft can only land in itD.astronauts can practise skills they need to go to Mars11.The author of the passage________.A.thinks that trips to the moon are an unrealistic dreamB.encourages kids to be astronautsC.hopes to receive a postcard from MarsD.is sure people’s dream of living on Mars will come trueThe situation of the world’s plants is not good. One fifth of the kinds of plants are in danger of disappearing, according to a report.“Plants are very vital to human beings,” said Kathy Willis, who led the new report. “Plants provide us with everything—food, fuel, and medicine, and they are very important for our climate controlling. Without plants we would not be here.”In Dong Qiang's opinion, a professor at Peking University, Modiano has been a celebrated writer in France ever since.Nobel, since it was only six years ago that another French writer, Le Clezio, took the prize.Born in a western Paris suburb in July 1945—two months after World War Europe—Modiano spenFrance.Raymondlife in France and studied in Paris, the top preparatoryIn the first interview Modiano gave after winning the Nobel, he explained that writing for him was a natural thing that he started quite young, “ 18 ”1968.Modianopublished about 30 works, including novels, film scripts and children's books, since his first book, La Place de l′ toile, in 1968.Modiano's works focus on the occupation of France during World War Ⅱ.19Jin Longge, who has translated three books by Modiano into Chinese, says, “ 20 But they are not detective novels, because the answers to the riddles set out in his novels usually remain untold and the reader is left to find his own answers.”A.He had a major influence on him.B.His works read like detective novels.C.It was not a surprise that he won the prize.D.It's something that's been part of my life.E.They will be published in the coming months.F.They invite the reader to seek identity through memory and history.G.Many of his readers came to know of him and started to read his works.三、完形填空(本大题共1小题)Tim, a blind and deaf man, boarded a six-hour flight, travelling from Boston to Los Angeles by himself.

Yet Martina Laird, 31, managed to do so.I’ve always loved power walking. I was in theatre in Stratford a few years ago and used to walk along a disused railway line. The sights are beautiful and it was so relaxing a type of walking meditation (沉思) with headphones on. I find gyms terrible and boring. I can’t see the point in getting a personal trainer. I don’t like the idea of having someone beside me while I exercise.I don’t own a car, which means I walk everywhere. It really keeps me fit. I’d love to geta mountain bike. Bristol, where we film, has so many hills that cycling back from work each day would be an amazing exercise on its own.I love fine food, but I don’t eat red meat or dairy products (奶制品). Cutting out bread has also made an amazing difference to my health. I have so much more energy. I always stick to healthy food and make my own juices for breakfast. When it’s freezing cold, I make my soups and take them to work. But I’m not perfect. I have my days of reaching for the biscuits. I also like to eat candies in the evening. They have left a bad influence on my teeth. I really want to stop and I’m giving it a try.I’m really happy with my health and I’m about 75% happy with myself. But like any woman, I still a little admire that other 25%. As a woman in this profession, you can’t help comparing yourself to your workmates. There’s some pressure to be thin on TV, but I’m a role model and I don’t want to put out the message to young viewers that being underweight ishealthy. You can only make the most of what you’ve got.4.What exercise does Martina dream of?A.Power walking.B.Riding bicycles.C.Training in the gym.D.Climbing mountains.5.Which of the following does Martina mean to quit?A.Red meat.B.Dairy products.C.Candies.D.Juices. 6.What is Martina’s profession?A.She is an athlete.B.She is an actress.C.She is a personal trainer.D.She is a fashion designer.7.What may be the text?A.An advertisement.B.A health instruction.C.A self-introduction.D.An interview report.The annual Redhead Days Festival in Tilburg, Netherlands, drew thousands of red-haired people from around the world in August, 2023. The three-day event is a celebration of red hair, a feature only shared by only 1%-2% of the global population. And although redheads can be found all over the world, the numbers are higher for people from the north of Europe, where the rate (比率) is between 2% and 6%.For many attendees, like 30-year-old Scottish Liam Hunter, the festival is an opportunity to feel a sense of belonging and self-acceptance. Hunter, who has experienced bullying (霸凌) due to his hair color, expressed a sense of satisfaction and unity at the event. “I don’t feel alone anymore. I feel together, a part of something,” he said.The event, which attracted about 5, 000 redheads from various countries, offered a range of activities including painting workshops, make-up and skincare knowledge, photo shoots, musical performances, and speed-meet events.Interestingly, the festival’s start was somewhat accidental. Bart Rouwenhorst, an artist and the event’s organizer, placed an advertisement in the local newspaper in 2005 seeking 15 red-haired models for a painting project. Surprisingly, he received responses from 150 individuals. Although Rouwenhorst is not a redhead himself, he decided to organize a group photo with all the respondents. The gathering got much attention and was considered a success, leading the organizers to establish it as an annual event.Now the festival serves as a special stage for redheads to celebrate their differences,develop a sense of community, and raise awareness about the challenges they face, such as bullying and increased sensitivity (过敏) to the sun. It also provides an opportunity for non-redheads to learn about and appreciate the uniqueness of red hair.8.What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.Redheads celebrate their festival with various activities.B.Red hair is a common disease among the global population.C.The Redhead Days Festival is celebrated around the world.D.Population in northern Europe has a higher rate of redheads.9.What does Hunter’s experience tell us?A.The redheads enjoy a high social position.B.The redheads take pride in their difference.C.The redheads face discrimination sometimes.D.The redheads have trouble keeping up with others.10.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A.The origin of the festival.B.The popularity of the festival.C.Customs during the festival.D.Activities during the festival. 11.Which of the following can best describe the event?A.Challenging.B.Informal.C.Remarkable.D.Meaningless.A pond in Hawaii has turned so pink that it could be from the Barbie movie-but it’s no cause for a dance party. Drought may be reason for the strange color, scientists say, and they’re warning against entering the water or drinking it.Workers at the Kealia Pond National Wildlife Refuge (遇难所) on the island of Maui have been watching the situation of the pink water since October 30, 2023, after getting a phone call from somebody who was walking on the beach.“I just got a report from somebody who was walking on the beach, and they called me up like ‘There’s something weird going on over here’,” said Bret Wolfe, the refuge manager.Wolfe was concerned the bright pink could be a sign of an event called an algae bloom (绿藻泛地), but lab tests found such algae was not causing the color. Instead, an organism (微生物) called halobacteria might be the cause.Halobacteria are a type of organism that lives in bodies of water with high levels of salt. The salinity (盐度) inside the Kealia Pond outlet area is now greater than 70 parts perthousand, which is twice the salinity of seawater. Wolfe said they will need to study the DNA to confirm the organism.Maui’s drought is likely leading to the situation.

Before it was open to the public, several well-known sculptors were invited to visit and show their opinions. There was a tent covering each sculpture. When they were approaching the first sculpture, a top assistant went over in advance to draw the first tent away. A big cluster (团) of beautiful peachblossoms appeared in front of them. The sculpture was really true to life. At the moment some bees flew over and then stopped on the flowers on seeing them to gather honey. All the sculptors thought highly of the first sculpture.Then the assistant uncovered the second tent, and they saw a big piece of meat standing there. A dog nearby began to bark slavering (流口水). All the sculptors cheered.
