Downey’s mother spent one year studying abroad through an international exchange program with a French school. She often talked about how exciting and interesting the experience was. So, even before finishing high school, Downey had decided to follow suit one day.
Downey began studying architecture at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania in 2004. Near the end of her second year, she started to feel unhappy with her school and decided it was time to study abroad.
U. S. colleges and universities commonly have joint programs with foreign schools that permit student exchanges. These programs usually last half a school year or sometimes a whole school year. The classes students take abroad usually give them credits toward their degree. In a four year degree program, the third year is the most common time for American college students to study abroad. Many students think they need a change before what is usually their final and most difficult year of study.
Downey said her school did not want her to go at first. The architecture program at Lehigh was very intense, and her professors were worried she might miss learning important material. However, she was eventually able to get special permission to study internationally for a whole year. During the fall term in 2006, she attended a Danish international school in Copenhagen, Denmark, explaining she did so because Danish architects are well known for their housing design.
Young adult as she was, she had to deal with travel documents and many other issues (问题) on her own. Overcoming the language barrier is the biggest challenge of studying abroad. However, she had a lot of emotional (情感的) and financial support from her family. She learned life lessons and made friendships and memories that have lasted to this day. She said, “The more you're out of your comfort zone, the more rewarding the experience is in the end.”
21．What does Downey’s mother mean to Downey
A．A friend. B．A dreamer.
C．An example. D．An expert.
22．What made Downey choose the Danish international school
A．The famous learned professors.
B．The casual learning environment.
C．The impressive academic reputation.
D．The favorable geographical location.
23．What can we infer according to the last paragraph
A．It was not easy for Downey to study abroad.
B．The comfortable life is likely to ruin the future life.
C．Downey was too young to take care of herself.
D．Downey's parents could hardly afford her education.
B
Huge areas of the Amazon, which serves as the lungs of the planet by taking in carbon dioxide and producing oxygen, are burning. Smoke from the widespread fires have turned day into night in Sao Paulo. The fires have covered the Brazilian city of San Paulo in dark smoke, and raising concerns that the rainforest, which is one of the most biologically diverse regions on earth.
The recent Amazon fires have been widespread and some happened rather suddenly. Farmers cleared land for agriculture and also burned areas of rainforest for further development. Cleared rainforests in this region are typically used for cattle farming and growing soybeans, and much of the land-clearing is done illegally. One contributing factor to the fires in the Amazon is the fact that it is the dry season there, the time of year when wildfires tend to break out from human activities, either intentionally or by accident.
The Amazon, which spans 2.12 million square miles, sucks up about a quarter of the 2.4 billion metric 57 tons of carbon that global forests absorb each year. However, the ability of the rainforest to pull in more carbon than it releases is diminishing weakened by changing weather patterns, deforestation and increasing tree mortality（死亡率）, among other factors.
According to the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service, the fires have led to a clear increase in carbon monoxide- emissions as well as planet-warming carbon dioxide emissions, posing a threat to human health and aggravating global warming.
If the Amazon were to turn into a consistent net source of carbon emissions, it would accelerate global warming while also leading to a huge loss in species that are not found anywhere else on earth.
24. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. The introduction of the Amazon fires B. The seriousness of the Amazon fires
C. The likely causes of the Amazon fires D. The influence of the Amazon fires
25. What does the underlined word "diminishing" in paragraph 3 mean
A. lowering B. decreasing C. increasing D. enlarging
26. Which of the following is not mentioned as a result of the Amazon fires
A. human health B. global warming C. deforestation D. species loss
27. What can be a suitable title for the passage
A. Amazon: Where have all the trees gone
B. Cutting trees should be prohibited in Amazon
C. Why are trees so important in Amazon
D. Amazon fires could accelerate global warming and causing lasting harm to us
C
Scientists have found amounts of water molecules inside rocks and soil samples from Mars before. But an ancient meteorite (陨石) found recently contains 10 times more water and much more oxygen than any Martian I meteorite ever before discovered.
What’s so wild about this wet discovery It could mean that the Red Planet once had enough water to have liquid flowing on the planet’s surface.
It was once believed that if Mars ever had water at all, its water would have been small amounts of ice below the surface or existing in the soil only as hydrogen and oxygen---the elements that make up water. But recent discoveries have shown that Mars probably had a much wetter history than formerly thought.
The meteorite, nicknamed Black Beauty, was found in Africa’s Sahara Desert in 2011. Only about 110 meteorites from Mars have ever been found. Scientists believe most Martian meteorites arrived on our planet during one large asteroid crash (小行星碰撞) that sent rocks falling toward Earth long ago.
Black Beauty is about 2.1 billion years old. Its discovery is the first time scientists have been able to study such an ancient Martian rock. It’s also one of the first times scientists have been able to study a piece of the panel’s ancient surface.
The sample’s water molecules were sent out when scientists heated the meteorite to analyze it. Scientists think the meteorite’s hydrogen and oxygen molecules are so plentiful because water flowing on Mars at the time this meteorite fell to Earth, or because these molecules were once sealed in large quantities in Mars’s crust.
Black Beauty might do more than just unlock secrets from the Red Planet’s past. These discoveries could also help scientists understand new data about Mars that’s being sent from the robotic rovers currently gathering information on the planet.
28．People used to think that .
A．there was little water on Mars B．Mars had a lot of flowing water
C．a large quantity of ice was Mars D．Mars was much wetter than Earth
29．What do we know about Black Beauty
A．It was discovered in Seattle in the USA．
B．It is the biggest of 110 meteorites from Mars.
C．It landed on Earth after an asteroid crash.
D．It has a history of 2.1 million years.
30．How did the scientists research Black Beauty
A．By cutting it into pieces. B．By dipping it into water.
C．By burning it on a fire. D．By burying it into a desert.
31．The passage is mainly about .
A．a rock from the center of Mars.
B．a major Martian meteorite discovery
C．a new discovery on the Red Planet
D．a number of meteorites from Red Plane
D
For decades, China had wanted a Nobel Prize in science. Tu Youyou, a researcher who helped to develop a malaria（疟疾）medicine, finally won the country that honor.
In fact, Tu is not the only scientist in China who is catching the world’s attention. In 2016, the Nature journal published a list of the top 10 science stars in China. Gao Caixia and Cui Weicheng are two of them.
Gao Caixia has been devoted to genetic engineering for her whole career. She is known for using CRISPR-Cas9, the revolutionary gene-editing technique that is sweeping through biology labs around the world – in crops.
At first, Gao was unwilling to take up gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 because her lab at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology in Beijing had already created mutations（变异）in 82 genes using an older type of technology. But after thinking carefully about it, she decided to give it a try.
After a year of hard work, her lab finally succeeded. Gao worked on genetic engineering in wheat, a crop that is famous for being difficult to work with. Now she is considered one of the best in the world at engineering wheat.
Cui Weicheng is the developer of China’s record-setting Jiaolong submersible （潜水器）. He is now a professor at Westlake University. In 2012, Cui rode inside China’s Jiaolong submersible and reached a depth of more than 7,000 meters in the Pacific.
Thanks to Jiaolong and the 57-year-old developer, China is now one of only a few nations that can explore the deep sea. Jiaolong can travel deeper than any other manned research submersible currently in use, which shows China’s increasing ambition and leadership in deep-sea research.
32．Why is Tu Youyou mentioned at the beginning of the passage
A．To show one of China’s long-held dreams.
B．To stress the importance of the Nobel Prize.
C．To praise Tu Youyou for her contributions.
D．To introduce more top Chinese scientists.
33．Why did Gao Caixia work on wheat
A．Because she failed in her attempt to study other crops.
B．Because she was expert at wheat engineering.
C．Because wheat is hard to be genetically engineered.
D．Because wheat is the most widely planted crop in China.
34．What is Cui Weicheng’s biggest contribution to China
A．He teaches about sea at a university.
B．He developed Jiaolong submersible.
C．He is devoted to genetic engineering.
D．He reached the bottom of the ocean.
35．What is the best title for the passage
A．China’s Science Stars
B．China’s Nobel Prize Dream
C．Gao Caixia－China’s Crop Engineer
D．Cui Weicheng－China’s Deep Diver

Huge areas of the Amazon, which serves as the lungs of the planet by taking in carbon dioxide and producing oxygen, are burning. Smoke from the widespread fires have turned day into night in Sao Paulo. The fires have covered the Brazilian city of San Paulo in dark smoke, and raising concerns that the rainforest, which is one of the most biologically diverse regions on earth.
The recent Amazon fires have been widespread and some happened rather suddenly. Farmers cleared land for agriculture and also burned areas of rainforest for further development. Cleared rainforests in this region are typically used for cattle farming and growing soybeans, and much of the land-clearing is done illegally. One contributing factor to the fires in the Amazon is the fact that it is the dry season there, the time of year when wildfires tend to break out from human activities, either intentionally or by accident.
The Amazon, which spans 2.12 million square miles, sucks up about a quarter of the 2.4 billion metric 57 tons of carbon that global forests absorb each year. However, the ability of the rainforest to pull in more carbon than it releases is diminishing weakened by changing weather patterns, deforestation and increasing tree mortality（死亡率）, among other factors.
According to the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service, the fires have led to a clear increase in carbon monoxide- emissions as well as planet-warming carbon dioxide emissions, posing a threat to human health and aggravating global warming.
If the Amazon were to turn into a consistent net source of carbon emissions, it would accelerate global warming while also leading to a huge loss in species that are not found anywhere else on earth.
24. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. The introduction of the Amazon fires B. The seriousness of the Amazon fires
C. The likely causes of the Amazon fires D. The influence of the Amazon fires
25. What does the underlined word "diminishing" in paragraph 3 mean
A. lowering B. decreasing C. increasing D. enlarging
26. Which of the following is not mentioned as a result of the Amazon fires
A. human health B. global warming C. deforestation D. species loss
27. What can be a suitable title for the passage
A. Amazon: Where have all the trees gone
B. Cutting trees should be prohibited in Amazon
C. Why are trees so important in Amazon
D. Amazon fires could accelerate global warming and causing lasting harm to us

Scientists have found amounts of water molecules inside rocks and soil samples from Mars before. But an ancient meteorite (陨石) found recently contains 10 times more water and much more oxygen than any Martian I meteorite ever before discovered.
What’s so wild about this wet discovery It could mean that the Red Planet once had enough water to have liquid flowing on the planet’s surface.
It was once believed that if Mars ever had water at all, its water would have been small amounts of ice below the surface or existing in the soil only as hydrogen and oxygen---the elements that make up water. But recent discoveries have shown that Mars probably had a much wetter history than formerly thought.
The meteorite, nicknamed Black Beauty, was found in Africa’s Sahara Desert in 2011. Only about 110 meteorites from Mars have ever been found. Scientists believe most Martian meteorites arrived on our planet during one large asteroid crash (小行星碰撞) that sent rocks falling toward Earth long ago.
Black Beauty is about 2.1 billion years old. Its discovery is the first time scientists have been able to study such an ancient Martian rock. It’s also one of the first times scientists have been able to study a piece of the panel’s ancient surface.
The sample’s water molecules were sent out when scientists heated the meteorite to analyze it. Scientists think the meteorite’s hydrogen and oxygen molecules are so plentiful because water flowing on Mars at the time this meteorite fell to Earth, or because these molecules were once sealed in large quantities in Mars’s crust.
Black Beauty might do more than just unlock secrets from the Red Planet’s past. These discoveries could also help scientists understand new data about Mars that’s being sent from the robotic rovers currently gathering information on the planet.
28．People used to think that .
A．there was little water on Mars B．Mars had a lot of flowing water
C．a large quantity of ice was Mars D．Mars was much wetter than Earth
29．What do we know about Black Beauty
A．It was discovered in Seattle in the USA．
B．It is the biggest of 110 meteorites from Mars.
C．It landed on Earth after an asteroid crash.
D．It has a history of 2.1 million years.
30．How did the scientists research Black Beauty
A．By cutting it into pieces. B．By dipping it into water.
C．By burning it on a fire. D．By burying it into a desert.
31．The passage is mainly about .
A．a rock from the center of Mars.
B．a major Martian meteorite discovery
C．a new discovery on the Red Planet
D．a number of meteorites from Red Plane

For decades, China had wanted a Nobel Prize in science. Tu Youyou, a researcher who helped to develop a malaria（疟疾）medicine, finally won the country that honor.
In fact, Tu is not the only scientist in China who is catching the world’s attention. In 2016, the Nature journal published a list of the top 10 science stars in China. Gao Caixia and Cui Weicheng are two of them.
Gao Caixia has been devoted to genetic engineering for her whole career. She is known for using CRISPR-Cas9, the revolutionary gene-editing technique that is sweeping through biology labs around the world – in crops.
At first, Gao was unwilling to take up gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 because her lab at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology in Beijing had already created mutations（变异）in 82 genes using an older type of technology. But after thinking carefully about it, she decided to give it a try.
After a year of hard work, her lab finally succeeded. Gao worked on genetic engineering in wheat, a crop that is famous for being difficult to work with. Now she is considered one of the best in the world at engineering wheat.
Cui Weicheng is the developer of China’s record-setting Jiaolong submersible （潜水器）. He is now a professor at Westlake University. In 2012, Cui rode inside China’s Jiaolong submersible and reached a depth of more than 7,000 meters in the Pacific.
Thanks to Jiaolong and the 57-year-old developer, China is now one of only a few nations that can explore the deep sea. Jiaolong can travel deeper than any other manned research submersible currently in use, which shows China’s increasing ambition and leadership in deep-sea research.
32．Why is Tu Youyou mentioned at the beginning of the passage
A．To show one of China’s long-held dreams.
B．To stress the importance of the Nobel Prize.
C．To praise Tu Youyou for her contributions.
D．To introduce more top Chinese scientists.
33．Why did Gao Caixia work on wheat
A．Because she failed in her attempt to study other crops.
B．Because she was expert at wheat engineering.
C．Because wheat is hard to be genetically engineered.
D．Because wheat is the most widely planted crop in China.
34．What is Cui Weicheng’s biggest contribution to China
A．He teaches about sea at a university.
B．He developed Jiaolong submersible.
C．He is devoted to genetic engineering.
D．He reached the bottom of the ocean.
35．What is the best title for the passage
A．China’s Science Stars
B．China’s Nobel Prize Dream
C．Gao Caixia－China’s Crop Engineer
D．Cui Weicheng－China’s Deep Diver
