The University of Miami’s newest hospital has a six-bed emergency room (急诊室), operating room, a birthing room and outpatient clinics.
The only thing missing is patients. Instead, nursing students get a realistic clinical experience using computerized patients and staff actors.
“Practicing on real people can be a frightening environment, and as our patients may be unwilling to accept treatment when a student walks in,” said Susana Barroso-Fernandez, who oversees UM’s simulation (模拟) program. “We created this environment to allow students to practice and make mistakes and never put a patient or student at risk.”
UM’s Simulation Hospital is part of a growing trend (趋势) of colleges building simulation centers to provide real-life experiences to munity colleges and schools also use simulators for emergency medical technician (技师) and medical assistant programs.
A 2014 study by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing found that colleges could use simulation to replace up to half of all clinical experience without any bad results. The students scored as well on nursing license exams as those getting most of their experience in hospitals and health care centers. Officials say they think simulation has helped their students achieve nearly perfect passing rates on the exams.
There are major advantages of simulation. In addition to giving students a safe environment to practice in, it also gives students experience with conditions that are rare, but still important for them to know how to deal with.
The Simulation Hospital will also be used as a training place for people outside of UM, officials said.
“You can bring companies in that want to test new products before they go to market,” Barroso-Fernandez said. “You can work with community partners like police and fire departments. You can take this hospital and turn it into a casualty (伤亡) event and have the community practice disaster preparedness and response. It’s not just about nursing education.”
24. What is special about the new hospital
A. It has modern services and expert doctors.
B. It is comfortable and patient-friendly.
C. There are plenty of clinics.
D. There are no real patients.
25. What did the 2014 study show
A. Simulation was used in most colleges.
B. Simulation could help students get job chances.
C. Simulation could avoid some unfavorable results.
D. Simulation increased the risks of patients and students.
26. What do we know about UM’s simulation program
A. Only unusual conditions can be provided for students.
B. Students can be trained in a safe environment.
C. Students have chances to act as patients.
D. It mainly involves outdoor training.
27. What can be learned from Barroso-Fernandez’s words in the last paragraph
A. This hospital can be widely used.
B. She was not satisfied with the nursing education.
C. This hospital is good at dealing with casualty events.
D. She advised companies to put more money into this hospital.
C
Every year, about 75,000 Great White Pelicans fly away from Eastern Europe’s cold winter to East Africa, where they spend the summer. It’s a long journey and the main stop is in Israel.
The Great White Pelican is a huge bird. It’s the largest bird in the world to make such a long journey. Its diet is mainly fish and it eats about 1.4 kilos each day.
The pelicans love to gather (聚集) in large numbers. Until recent years, there were plenty of water supplies (供给) in Israel. Frequently, the pelicans arrive in Israel tired. They cannot continue their long journey until they have rested. However, for a variety of reasons, these water supplies have dried up and the pelicans have had to find other food sources.
Fish farming has become big business in Israel. As you may imagine, a fish farm is something pelicans could usually only dream of! In the summer months when the Great White Pelicans passed through, Israel’s fish farmers began to lose tons of fish. Some farms were even forced to close their business. Something had to be done.
The Israel Ministry of Agriculture considered the problem carefully. How could it stop 75,000 huge pelicans from arriving in Israel It decided this was not possible. It chose a place with a plentiful supply of water, and provided money for local farmers to buy food, which they fed to the pelicans. The pelicans soon understood this and now arrive at the place to feed and rest. They no longer have to rely on the fish farms for food.
It’s a solution that seems to have worked. At one point, it looked as if the Ministry would stop the money. One criticism was that with so much food, the pelicans would never leave and would become even more expensive. However, there was such outcry from environmentalists and farmers that the money remains.
Perhaps their large numbers in Israel will attract birdwatchers from all over the world to visit the amazing sight, and tourism can bring new income to the country.
28. What can we learn about Great White Pelicans
A. They are loners.
B. They winter in Israel.
C. They are good at long-distance flying.
D. They reduce their intake during their journey.
29. What problem did the fish farmers face
A. The pelicans damaged the local environment.
B. Their farms were closed by the government.
C. The water supplies were not enough.
D. They suffered a heavy loss of fish.
30. What measures did the government take
A. They prevented the pelicans stopping in Israel.
B. They encouraged farmers to develop tourism.
C. They gave farmers money to farm more fish.
D. They found a new place for the pelicans.
31. What is the author’s attitude to the pelicans in Israel
A. Optimistic.
B. Unclear.
C. Doubtful.
D. Unconcerned.
D
I grew to be a tall girl but I tried to be as ordinary as possible. At school, I always chose a seat in the back of the room, and never raised my hand in class. When I was 16, I went to my new school. And I liked the English teacher. In my last year in high school, however, we were told that we were going to have a new English teacher, Oliver Bascom.
Oliver Bascom! My girlfriends and I laughed as we imagined a short and bald man. The situation was not funny, because this man would teach us for the whole year.
After we opened the door, there in front of the blackboard, we saw a young and handsome man!
What followed was pandemonium (喧闹), seventeen-year-old girls flying to get to seats in the front of the room. And I managed to get a front and center desk.
I really wanted to make a good impression on my new teacher, but I usually kept quiet. The day that directions were given for our first major writing assignment (作业), I arrived late to class. A friend later gave me the guidelines and I thought I understood them. I worked the whole weekend on the essay and waited nervously for Mr. Bascom’s evaluation (评价).
After three days, he arrived in class holding the corrected papers. “I’ve chosen the ten best essays for class discussion,” he said.
Twenty minutes later, my heart sank (下沉) when he got to the last essay, and I didn’t hear my name.
“These are all great essays,” Mr. Bascom continued. “However, I am now going to read you the most successful of all ...” We were all surprised as I was the author of this unusual work.
A different girl walked out of the classroom that day. I knew that I had a new set of standards to live up to and that anything was possible in the future. Finally, I raised my head.

Why do you run Different people have different reasons. Whatever your reason, there’s one thing we can be sure of: Running is much better injury-free. In his book, Dr. Jordan Metzl’s Running Strong, Metzl has the perfect suggestions for enjoying your running without losing your well-being. Here are five must-follow rules for injury-free running:
1. Train for your level of fitness and your goals.
36 If you run for fitness and your goal is 30 minutes a day, that’s cool. But if you are just starting out, you need to get there slowly.
2. Wear the right shoes for your feet.
You will hear lots of opinions about whether running shoes really help prevent injury and whether you should even wear them. 37 And some of you may need a little added assistance from inserts (鞋垫).
3. 38
Be honest about how much sleep you need and stick to it. The cool runner is the one who wins the race. Sleep will get you there.
4. Fuel your body right for running and recovery.
39 And after a workout or race, you need to deliver nutrients (传递营养物质) to all the body rebuilders in your muscles (肌肉), so they can do their job and get you back into tip-top shape for your run tomorrow.
5. Pay attention to pain.
When pain changes the way you run, stop running. 40 And use dynamic rest (动态休息) to stay in shape until you are back on your running feet.
A. Try to find out what’s going on and treat it.
B. Get seven to eight hours of sleep every night.
C. Running should be seen as fun rather than pain.
D. Don’t run more miles than your body can deal with.
E. A good pre-run meal plan is one that keeps you stepping strong.
F. It is because of the health benefits, including lowering your risk for disease.
G. The right running shoes can help correct foot-movement problems that lead to injury.

A
In a warehouse (仓库) east of Los Angeles, Richard Medina employed “Black Cat” to keep mice from stealing the drinks and foods that were stored there.
Black Cat is one of many neutered feral cats (绝育的流浪猫) that “no-kill” shelters are giving to businesses and people to help control animals like mice, and to save cats’ lives.
Medina received his animals through a working cat program at the Los Angeles shelter of the Best Friends Animal Society. The organization is trying to end unnecessary pet euthanasia (安乐死).
But placing cats in businesses can only help a little with the problem of unwanted pets.
Though the number of animals euthanized in shelters has been decreasing (减少), about 860,000 cats are still killed each year. Many city shelters don’t have space to house them and many are too wild to make good house pets.
Working cats start out living on the streets, where they learn to fear humans, says Marc Peralta, who runs Best Friends’ Los Angeles shelter. Some are caught by animal control officers and brought to shelters run by the city — which is where Best Friends mainly gets its working cats.
Besides businesses, the program has placed cats with people who need help in the countryside.
Brittany Sorgenstein raises plants, sheep and a rabbit on her land. She could not get away from the mice. Through the Best Friends Animal Society, she found out about the working cat adoption program and decided to give it a try. Last year, she raised two cats.
It’s not always perfect. They may kill birds or other wildlife, which is why some environmental activists are against putting homeless cats back into society, says Rebekah DeHaven, a spokesman for an animal rights organization. But she added that most communities don’t see these cats as a large problem if they are fixed and disease-free.
1. What did Black Cat do in a warehouse
A. He was placed there to accept euthanasia.
B. He helped control other pets there.
C. He escaped there to survive.
D. He was working there.
2. What is the aim of the Best Friends Animal Society
A. To save pets from unnecessary euthanasia.
B. To send homeless cats to people as pets.
C. To provide space for homeless pets.
D. To train animals to help people.
3. Why did Brittany Sorgenstein adopt two cats
A. To find playmates for her rabbit.
B. To help house homeless animals.
C. To solve her mouse problem.
D. To save them from illness.
4. Why do some people disagree to put homeless cats into society
A. These cats may spread disease.
B. They fear these cats may do harm to people.
C. These cats may be dangerous for some animals.
D. They think staying in a shelter is better for these cats.
B
Sixty years ago, Manchester United was said to be the finest soccer team that Great Britain had produced since World War II. It had won three league titles (联赛冠军) between 1952 and 1957. But in February 1958, the Manchester United team, together with its management and journalists, travelled to Belgrade to take part in a European Cup match. The team was successful and was returning home to Manchester knowing that it was through to the European Cup semi-finals (半决赛).
In those days, even short journeys required several stops so the plane could be refueled. On 6th February 1958, the team stopped at Munich-Riem Airport in West Germany to refuel. As everyone waited, it began to snow and the weather grew worse and worse.
Finally, the plane was ready. Fallen snow was beginning to melt on the runway. Players looked out of the window nervously. The plane tried to take off once and then a second time. It went for a third try. If this failed, the team would have had to stay in West Germany overnight. No one wanted that.
The plane raced along the 600-metre-long runway and everything looked fine. Then, the engines (引擎) began to lose power. There was no take-off and the plane crashed into a ball of fire at the end of the runway.
Seven Manchester United players were killed in the crash, as were three club staff and eight journalists. The famous Manchester United team had lost over half of its players. Many thought that there would be no chance of the club continuing. The city of Manchester began to mourn (哀悼).
In the following weeks and months, a Manchester United side was made up from the reserve and youth teams. In its very first match following the disaster, it beat Sheffield Wednesday 3-0, even though only two of the original team players were fit to play.
Slowly, and under the guidance of Matt Busby, new players were signed up. Amongst them were George Best and Denis Law, who became the next generation (代) of superstars.
5. Manchester United went to Belgrade in February 1958 to .
A. watch a European Cup match
B. do an interview there
C. accept a prize
D. play a match
6. Why did the team stop at Munich-Riem Airport
A. There was not enough fuel to support the distance.
B. The players were too nervous to fly.
C. The engines of the plane lost power.
D. The weather was too bad.
7. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. The plane.
B. Heavy snow.
C. A frozen runway.
D. An overnight stop.
8. What happened after the air disaster
A. The reserve left the team.
B. The team lost the first match.
C. The team brought in some new blood.
D. Many superstars were signed up at once.

Good morning, everyone. It’s my great honour to stand here and share my views on how to protect endangered wildlife.
Animals are our friends and each species is essential for keeping the balance of nature. However, an astonishing number of wild species become endangered or even extinct every year. One of the major reasons is illegal hunting driven by demands for money. And another known cause is habitat loss due to the overuse of forest and grassland.
Therefore, it’s high time we took measures to protect wildlife from extinction. Not only should more natural reserves be established, but also we teenagers should fight for the cause of wildlife protection, starting from saying no to all kinds of wildlife products. Only in this way can we save the animals in danger before it’s too late.
That’s all. Thanks for your listening.

The University of Miami’s newest hospital has a six-bed emergency room (急诊室), operating room, a birthing room and outpatient clinics.
The only thing missing is patients. Instead, nursing students get a realistic clinical experience using computerized patients and staff actors.
“Practicing on real people can be a frightening environment, and as our patients may be unwilling to accept treatment when a student walks in,” said Susana Barroso-Fernandez, who oversees UM’s simulation (模拟) program. “We created this environment to allow students to practice and make mistakes and never put a patient or student at risk.”
UM’s Simulation Hospital is part of a growing trend (趋势) of colleges building simulation centers to provide real-life experiences to munity colleges and schools also use simulators for emergency medical technician (技师) and medical assistant programs.
A 2014 study by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing found that colleges could use simulation to replace up to half of all clinical experience without any bad results. The students scored as well on nursing license exams as those getting most of their experience in hospitals and health care centers. Officials say they think simulation has helped their students achieve nearly perfect passing rates on the exams.
There are major advantages of simulation. In addition to giving students a safe environment to practice in, it also gives students experience with conditions that are rare, but still important for them to know how to deal with.
The Simulation Hospital will also be used as a training place for people outside of UM, officials said.
“You can bring companies in that want to test new products before they go to market,” Barroso-Fernandez said. “You can work with community partners like police and fire departments. You can take this hospital and turn it into a casualty (伤亡) event and have the community practice disaster preparedness and response. It’s not just about nursing education.”
24. What is special about the new hospital
A. It has modern services and expert doctors.
B. It is comfortable and patient-friendly.
C. There are plenty of clinics.
D. There are no real patients.
25. What did the 2014 study show
A. Simulation was used in most colleges.
B. Simulation could help students get job chances.
C. Simulation could avoid some unfavorable results.
D. Simulation increased the risks of patients and students.
26. What do we know about UM’s simulation program
A. Only unusual conditions can be provided for students.
B. Students can be trained in a safe environment.
C. Students have chances to act as patients.
D. It mainly involves outdoor training.
27. What can be learned from Barroso-Fernandez’s words in the last paragraph
A. This hospital can be widely used.
B. She was not satisfied with the nursing education.
C. This hospital is good at dealing with casualty events.
D. She advised companies to put more money into this hospital.

Every year, about 75,000 Great White Pelicans fly away from Eastern Europe’s cold winter to East Africa, where they spend the summer. It’s a long journey and the main stop is in Israel.
The Great White Pelican is a huge bird. It’s the largest bird in the world to make such a long journey. Its diet is mainly fish and it eats about 1.4 kilos each day.
The pelicans love to gather (聚集) in large numbers. Until recent years, there were plenty of water supplies (供给) in Israel. Frequently, the pelicans arrive in Israel tired. They cannot continue their long journey until they have rested. However, for a variety of reasons, these water supplies have dried up and the pelicans have had to find other food sources.
Fish farming has become big business in Israel. As you may imagine, a fish farm is something pelicans could usually only dream of! In the summer months when the Great White Pelicans passed through, Israel’s fish farmers began to lose tons of fish. Some farms were even forced to close their business. Something had to be done.
The Israel Ministry of Agriculture considered the problem carefully. How could it stop 75,000 huge pelicans from arriving in Israel It decided this was not possible. It chose a place with a plentiful supply of water, and provided money for local farmers to buy food, which they fed to the pelicans. The pelicans soon understood this and now arrive at the place to feed and rest. They no longer have to rely on the fish farms for food.
It’s a solution that seems to have worked. At one point, it looked as if the Ministry would stop the money. One criticism was that with so much food, the pelicans would never leave and would become even more expensive. However, there was such outcry from environmentalists and farmers that the money remains.
Perhaps their large numbers in Israel will attract birdwatchers from all over the world to visit the amazing sight, and tourism can bring new income to the country.
28. What can we learn about Great White Pelicans
A. They are loners.
B. They winter in Israel.
C. They are good at long-distance flying.
D. They reduce their intake during their journey.
29. What problem did the fish farmers face

B. Their farms were closed by the government.

D. They suffered a heavy loss of fish.

A. They prevented the pelicans stopping in Israel.
B. They encouraged farmers to develop tourism.
C. They gave farmers money to farm more fish.
D. They found a new place for the pelicans.
31. What is the author’s attitude to the pelicans in Israel
A. Optimistic.
B. Unclear.
C. Doubtful.
D. Unconcerned.

I grew to be a tall girl but I tried to be as ordinary as possible. At school, I always chose a seat in the back of the room, and never raised my hand in class. When I was 16, I went to my new school. And I liked the English teacher. In my last year in high school, however, we were told that we were going to have a new English teacher, Oliver Bascom.
Oliver Bascom! My girlfriends and I laughed as we imagined a short and bald man. The situation was not funny, because this man would teach us for the whole year.
After we opened the door, there in front of the blackboard, we saw a young and handsome man!
What followed was pandemonium (喧闹), seventeen-year-old girls flying to get to seats in the front of the room. And I managed to get a front and center desk.
I really wanted to make a good impression on my new teacher, but I usually kept quiet. The day that directions were given for our first major writing assignment (作业), I arrived late to class. A friend later gave me the guidelines and I thought I understood them. I worked the whole weekend on the essay and waited nervously for Mr. Bascom’s evaluation (评价).
After three days, he arrived in class holding the corrected papers. “I’ve chosen the ten best essays for class discussion,” he said.
Twenty minutes later, my heart sank (下沉) when he got to the last essay, and I didn’t hear my name.
“These are all great essays,” Mr. Bascom continued. “However, I am now going to read you the most successful of all ...” We were all surprised as I was the author of this unusual work.
A different girl walked out of the classroom that day. I knew that I had a new set of standards to live up to and that anything was possible in the future. Finally, I raised my head.

Why do you run Different people have different reasons. Whatever your reason, there’s one thing we can be sure of: Running is much better injury-free. In his book, Dr. Jordan Metzl’s Running Strong, Metzl has the perfect suggestions for enjoying your running without losing your well-being. Here are five must-follow rules for injury-free running:
1. Train for your level of fitness and your goals.
36 If you run for fitness and your goal is 30 minutes a day, that’s cool. But if you are just starting out, you need to get there slowly.
2. Wear the right shoes for your feet.
You will hear lots of opinions about whether running shoes really help prevent injury and whether you should even wear them. 37 And some of you may need a little added assistance from inserts (鞋垫).
3. 38
Be honest about how much sleep you need and stick to it. The cool runner is the one who wins the race. Sleep will get you there.
4. Fuel your body right for running and recovery.
39 And after a workout or race, you need to deliver nutrients (传递营养物质) to all the body rebuilders in your muscles (肌肉), so they can do their job and get you back into tip-top shape for your run tomorrow.
5. Pay attention to pain.
When pain changes the way you run, stop running. 40 And use dynamic rest (动态休息) to stay in shape until you are back on your running feet.
A. Try to find out what’s going on and treat it.
B. Get seven to eight hours of sleep every night.
C. Running should be seen as fun rather than pain.
D. Don’t run more miles than your body can deal with.
E. A good pre-run meal plan is one that keeps you stepping strong.
F. It is because of the health benefits, including lowering your risk for disease.
G. The right running shoes can help correct foot-movement problems that lead to injury.

In a warehouse (仓库) east of Los Angeles, Richard Medina employed “Black Cat” to keep mice from stealing the drinks and foods that were stored there.
Black Cat is one of many neutered feral cats (绝育的流浪猫) that “no-kill” shelters are giving to businesses and people to help control animals like mice, and to save cats’ lives.
Medina received his animals through a working cat program at the Los Angeles shelter of the Best Friends Animal Society. The organization is trying to end unnecessary pet euthanasia (安乐死).
But placing cats in businesses can only help a little with the problem of unwanted pets.
Though the number of animals euthanized in shelters has been decreasing (减少), about 860,000 cats are still killed each year. Many city shelters don’t have space to house them and many are too wild to make good house pets.
Working cats start out living on the streets, where they learn to fear humans, says Marc Peralta, who runs Best Friends’ Los Angeles shelter. Some are caught by animal control officers and brought to shelters run by the city — which is where Best Friends mainly gets its working cats.
Besides businesses, the program has placed cats with people who need help in the countryside.
Brittany Sorgenstein raises plants, sheep and a rabbit on her land. She could not get away from the mice. Through the Best Friends Animal Society, she found out about the working cat adoption program and decided to give it a try. Last year, she raised two cats.
It’s not always perfect. They may kill birds or other wildlife, which is why some environmental activists are against putting homeless cats back into society, says Rebekah DeHaven, a spokesman for an animal rights organization. But she added that most communities don’t see these cats as a large problem if they are fixed and disease-free.

A. He was placed there to accept euthanasia.
B. He helped control other pets there.
C. He escaped there to survive.
D. He was working there.
2. What is the aim of the Best Friends Animal Society
A. To save pets from unnecessary euthanasia.

3. Why did Brittany Sorgenstein adopt two cats
A. To find playmates for her rabbit.
B. To help house homeless animals.
C. To solve her mouse problem.
D. To save them from illness.
4. Why do some people disagree to put homeless cats into society
A. These cats may spread disease.
B. They fear these cats may do harm to people.
C. These cats may be dangerous for some animals.
D. They think staying in a shelter is better for these cats.

Sixty years ago, Manchester United was said to be the finest soccer team that Great Britain had produced since World War II. It had won three league titles (联赛冠军) between 1952 and 1957. But in February 1958, the Manchester United team, together with its management and journalists, travelled to Belgrade to take part in a European Cup match. The team was successful and was returning home to Manchester knowing that it was through to the European Cup semi-finals (半决赛).
In those days, even short journeys required several stops so the plane could be refueled. On 6th February 1958, the team stopped at Munich-Riem Airport in West Germany to refuel. As everyone waited, it began to snow and the weather grew worse and worse.
Finally, the plane was ready. Fallen snow was beginning to melt on the runway. Players looked out of the window nervously. The plane tried to take off once and then a second time. It went for a third try. If this failed, the team would have had to stay in West Germany overnight. No one wanted that.
The plane raced along the 600-metre-long runway and everything looked fine. Then, the engines (引擎) began to lose power. There was no take-off and the plane crashed into a ball of fire at the end of the runway.
Seven Manchester United players were killed in the crash, as were three club staff and eight journalists. The famous Manchester United team had lost over half of its players. Many thought that there would be no chance of the club continuing. The city of Manchester began to mourn (哀悼).
In the following weeks and months, a Manchester United side was made up from the reserve and youth teams. In its very first match following the disaster, it beat Sheffield Wednesday 3-0, even though only two of the original team players were fit to play.
Slowly, and under the guidance of Matt Busby, new players were signed up. Amongst them were George Best and Denis Law, who became the next generation (代) of superstars.
5. Manchester United went to Belgrade in February 1958 to .

One possible version:
Good morning, everyone. It’s my great honour to stand here and share my views on how to protect endangered wildlife.
Animals are our friends and each species is essential for keeping the balance of nature. However, an astonishing number of wild species become endangered or even extinct every year. One of the major reasons is illegal hunting driven by demands for money. And another known cause is habitat loss due to the overuse of forest and grassland.
Therefore, it’s high time we took measures to protect wildlife from extinction. Not only should more natural reserves be established, but also we teenagers should fight for the cause of wildlife protection, starting from saying no to all kinds of wildlife products. Only in this way can we save the animals in danger before it’s too late.
That’s all. Thanks for your listening.
