How to Use a Modern Public Library
Has it been a while since your last visit to a public library If so, you may be surprised to learn that libraries have changed for the better. It’s been years since they were dusty little rooms with books. They have transformed themselves into places where you can develop your love of knowledge, meet interesting people, or find out how to start a business.
Check out a book. While libraries still loan out（出借）books, you’ll find it easier to get a copy of whatever you’re looking for, thanks to a cooperative network of area libraries. Via such networks, libraries share their books with each other through the use of delivery vehicles. Once the book you’ve requested is delivered to the nearest branch, they will inform you by e-mail, so you can pick it up.
Check out other items. The library is now a multimedia zone, loaded with information in many formats（载体形式）. You can borrow movies on DVDs, music on CDs, and popular magazines. Some libraries even loan out toys and games. If a popular magazine you want isn’t offered and the library keeps a list of such requests, they may bring it in when enough interest is shown.
Join targeted reading groups. Libraries will often hold reading-group sessions aimed at various age groups. Perhaps you’d like to learn a language or improve your English. The library may sponsor a language group you could join. If you have difficulties reading, ask about special reading opportunities. Your library might be able to accommodate you. And you might find it relaxing to bring your small kid to a half-hour Story Time while you sit quietly in a corner with a good book.
Start a business using the help of your local library. If you want to have a business of your own, your local library can become a launch space for it. In library books and computers, you can find information on starting a business. Many libraries will help you with locally supplied information about business management shared through chambers of commerce（商会）and government agencies, and they will offer printing, faxing and database services you need.
4. Public libraries connected by a cooperative network benefit readers by______.
A. sharing their books on the Internet
B. giving access to online reading at a library branch
C. sending a needed book to a library branch nearby
D. making the checkout procedures diverse
5. According to Paragraph 3, what items may be checked out from a public library
A. A magazine and an e-book. B. A game and an oil painting.
C. A music CD and a kid’s toy. D. A DVD and a video player.
6. As is described in Paragraph 4, taking a small kid to a half-hour Story Time allows ______.
A. the kid to learn a new language B. the parent to enjoy quiet reading
C. the kid to overcome reading difficulties D. the parent to meet their program sponsor
7. What is the purpose of the passage
A. To point out the importance of public libraries.
B. To encourage people to work in public libraries.
C. To call for the modernization of public library systems.
D. To introduce the improved services of public libraries.
C
Researchers from the United Kingdom and Canada looked at what children ate when compared to their IQ levels. The researcher used surveys to ask parents how often their children ate junk food. The parents were surveyed when the children were aged 3, then followed up 5 years later to see how the diet affected the growing children’s IQ. They found that those who ate more junk food had lower IQ levels than those who ate a more nutritious diet.
“This suggests that any cognitive (认知的) effects relating to eating habits early in childhood may well continue to exist in later childhood, despite any later changes (including improvements) to dietary intake,” the authors wrote.
The researchers found that dietary habits between the ages of 4 and 7 did not have as much of an effect as what children ate at age 3 did. This may be because the brain grows the quickest during the first three years of life, and thus is more easily affected by things such as diet.
“A possible explanation for this is that the brain grows at its fastest rate during the first three years of life. Studies have shown that head growth during this time is associated with cognitive outcome, and it is possible that good nutrition during this early period may encourage brain growth,” the researchers wrote.
The researchers point out that they have found an association between food and IQ, but not a direct cause or effect. Other factors could have played a role in determining a child's IQ. Parenting, genetics, and even family income are all factors that determine how intelligent a child will be.
Despite this, nutritionists tell us that what children eat can affect how healthy they are, how much rest they get, how smart they are during school. All of these things could change a child's test on IQ level. It is not clear whether food affects IQ directly or indirectly.
More research is needed to determine if there is a direct effect between what a child eats and how intelligent they are. However, the study does suggest that there may be more reasons than just physical health to make sure a child gets a healthy diet.
8. What is the best title for the passage
A. New Research on Healthy Diet
B. Diets Determine Our Heights
C. Children's Health and Junk Food
D. Junk Food Lowers Your IQ
9. Researchers surveyed the parents ______.
A. when the children were between 3 and 4 years old
B while they were having junk food with children
C. by asking how often their children ate junk food
D. by always following the children
10. From the research we know ______.
A. the more healthy food we eat, the more intelligent we are
B. what we eat during the first three years of life affects our brain most
C. parenting, genetics, and family income have little to do with our IQ
D. it is children’s diet that determines the growth of their brain directly
11. The passage is likely to appear in ______.
A. a science magazine
B. a newspaper advertisement
C. a financial report
D. an education paper
D
People have been wondering why elephants do not develop cancer even though they have lifespans (寿命) that are similar to humans, jiving for around 50 to 70 years.
Now scientists believe they know why. A team at the University of Chicago, US has found that elephants carry a large number of genes that stop tumors (肿瘤) developing. To be precise, they found 20 copies of an anti-tumor gene called TP53 in elephants. Most other species, including humans, only carry one copy.
According to the research, the extra copies of the gene improved the animal’s sensitivity to DNA damage, which lets the cells quickly kill themselves when damaged before they can go on to form deadly tumors.
“An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evolution of large body sizes in many animals,” the study author Dr Vincent Lynch told The Guardian. If every living cell has the same chance of becoming cancerous (癌变的), large creatures with a long lifespan like whales and elephants should have a greater risk of developing cancer than humans and mice. But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.
This phenomenon was found by Oxford University scientist Richard Peto in the 1970s and later named “Peto’s paradox (悖论)”. Biologists believe it results from larger animals using protection that many smaller animals do not. In the elephant’s case, the making of TP53 is nature’s way of keeping this species alive.
The study also found that when the same genes were brought to life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance as elephants. This means researchers could use the discovery to develop new treatments that can help stop cancers spreading or even developing in the first place.
“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer,” said Joshua Schiffman, a biologist at the School of Medicine, University of Utah, US. “It’s up to us to learn how different animals deal with the problem so that we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people.”
12. Why are elephants unlikely to develop cancer
A. They have a rather large body size.
B. Their genes suffer no DNA damage.
C. Certain genes in their body kill existing tumors.
D. They carry many genes to prevent tumors developing.
13. According to the passage, what has been a risk in the evolution of large animals
A. Deadly tumors. B. The huge body mass.
C. Cells killing themselves. D. Sensitivity to DNA damage.
14. What does the underlined part “This phenomenon” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to
A. Larger animals have protection from TP53.
B. The risk of cancer is not related to body size.
C. Larger animals suffer the same risk of cancer as smaller ones.
D. The larger animals are, the bigger risk of cancer they will have.
15. What can be concluded from the passage
A. Depending on nature is surely enough to fight against cancer.
B. The TP53 genes have proved useful in stopping cancer in people.
C. Humans are expected to prevent cancer with the making of TP53.
D. The extra copies of elephants, genes are used to cure cancer patients.

How to Use a Modern Public Library
Has it been a while since your last visit to a public library If so, you may be surprised to learn that libraries have changed for the better. It’s been years since they were dusty little rooms with books. They have transformed themselves into places where you can develop your love of knowledge, meet interesting people, or find out how to start a business.
Check out a book. While libraries still loan out（出借）books, you’ll find it easier to get a copy of whatever you’re looking for, thanks to a cooperative network of area libraries. Via such networks, libraries share their books with each other through the use of delivery vehicles. Once the book you’ve requested is delivered to the nearest branch, they will inform you by e-mail, so you can pick it up.
Check out other items. The library is now a multimedia zone, loaded with information in many formats（载体形式）. You can borrow movies on DVDs, music on CDs, and popular magazines. Some libraries even loan out toys and games. If a popular magazine you want isn’t offered and the library keeps a list of such requests, they may bring it in when enough interest is shown.
Join targeted reading groups. Libraries will often hold reading-group sessions aimed at various age groups. Perhaps you’d like to learn a language or improve your English. The library may sponsor a language group you could join. If you have difficulties reading, ask about special reading opportunities. Your library might be able to accommodate you. And you might find it relaxing to bring your small kid to a half-hour Story Time while you sit quietly in a corner with a good book.
Start a business using the help of your local library. If you want to have a business of your own your local library can become a launch space for it. In library books and computers, you can find information on starting a business. Many libraries will help you with locally supplied information about business management shared through chambers of commerce（商会）and government agencies, and they will offer printing, faxing and database services you need.
4. Public libraries connected by a cooperative network benefit readers by______.
A. sharing their books on the Internet
B. giving access to online reading at a library branch
C. sending a needed book to a library branch nearby
D. making the checkout procedures diverse
5. According to Paragraph 3, what items may be checked out from a public library
A. A magazine and an e-book. B. A game and an oil painting.
C. A music CD and a kid’s toy. D. A DVD and a video player.
6. As is described in Paragraph 4, taking a small kid to a half-hour Story Time allows ______.
A. the kid to learn a new language B. the parent to enjoy quiet reading
C. the kid to overcome reading difficulties D. the parent to meet their program sponsor
7. What is the purpose of the passage

Researchers from the United Kingdom and Canada looked at what children ate when compared to their IQ levels. The researcher used surveys to ask parents how often their children ate junk food. The parents were surveyed when the children were aged 3, then followed up 5 years later to see how the diet affected the growing children’s IQ. They found that those who ate more junk food had lower IQ levels than those who ate a more nutritious diet.
“This suggests that any cognitive (认知的) effects relating to eating habits early in childhood may well continue to exist in later childhood, despite any later changes (including improvements) to dietary intake,” the authors wrote.
The researchers found that dietary habits between the ages of 4 and 7 did not have as much of an effect as what children ate at age 3 did. This may be because the brain grows the quickest during the first three years of life, and thus is more easily affected by things such as diet.
“A possible explanation for this is that the brain grows at its fastest rate during the first three years of life. Studies have shown that head growth during this time is associated with cognitive outcome, and it is possible that good nutrition during this early period may encourage brain growth,” the researchers wrote.
The researchers point out that they have found an association between food and IQ, but not a direct cause or effect. Other factors could have played a role in determining a child's IQ. Parenting, genetics, and even family income are all factors that determine how intelligent a child will be.
Despite this, nutritionists tell us that what children eat can affect how healthy they are, how much rest they get, how smart they are during school. All of these things could change a child's test on IQ level. It is not clear whether food affects IQ directly or indirectly.
More research is needed to determine if there is a direct effect between what a child eats and how intelligent they are. However, the study does suggest that there may be more reasons than just physical health to make sure a child gets a healthy diet.
8. What is the best title for the passage
A. New Research on Healthy Diet
B. Diets Determine Our Heights
C. Children's Health and Junk Food
D. Junk Food Lowers Your IQ
9. Researchers surveyed the parents ______.
A. when the children were between 3 and 4 years old
B. while they were having junk food with children
C. by asking how often their children ate junk food
D. by always following the children
10. From the research we know ______.
A. the more healthy food we eat, the more intelligent we are
B. what we eat during the first three years of life affects our brain most
C. parenting, genetics, and family income have little to do with our IQ
D. it is children’s diet that determines the growth of their brain directly
11. The passage is likely to appear in ______.
A. a science magazine
B. a newspaper advertisement
C. a financial report
D. an education paper
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】

【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The researcher used surveys to ask parents how often their children ate junk food.”（研究人员通过民意调查询问父母他们的孩子多久吃一次垃圾食品。）可知，研究人员调查的方式是询问父母他们的孩子多久吃一次垃圾食品。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“‘A possible explanation for this is that the brain grows at its fastest rate during the first three years of life. Studies have shown that head growth during this time is associated with cognitive outcome, and it is possible that good nutrition during this early period may encourage brain growth,’ the researchers wrote.”（研究人员写道：“一个可能的解释是，大脑在生命的前三年以最快的速度增长。研究表明，在这段时间内，头部的增长与认知结果有关，而且早期良好的营养可能会促进大脑的增长。”。）可知，生命的前三年大脑以最快的速度增长，早期良好的营养可能会促进大脑的增长，推测我们在生命的前三年所吃的东西对我们的大脑影响最大。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“More research is needed to determine if there is a direct effect between what a child eats and how intelligent they are.”（需要更多的研究来确定孩子的饮食和他们的智力之间是否有直接的影响。）可推测，文章可能出现在科学杂志上。故选A项。

People have been wondering why elephants do not develop cancer even though they have lifespans (寿命) that are similar to humans, jiving for around 50 to 70 years.
Now scientists believe they know why. A team at the University of Chicago, US has found that elephants carry a large number of genes that stop tumors (肿瘤) developing. To be precise, they found 20 copies of an anti-tumor gene called TP53 in elephants. Most other species, including humans, only carry one copy.
According to the research, the extra copies of the gene improved the animal’s sensitivity to DNA damage, which lets the cells quickly kill themselves when damaged before they can go on to form deadly tumors.
“An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evolution of large body sizes in many animals,” the study author Dr Vincent Lynch told The Guardian. If every living cell has the same chance of becoming cancerous (癌变的), large creatures with a long lifespan like whales and elephants should have a greater risk of developing cancer than humans and mice. But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.
This phenomenon was found by Oxford University scientist Richard Peto in the 1970s and later named “Peto’s paradox (悖论)”. Biologists believe it results from larger animals using protection that many smaller animals do not. In the elephant’s case, the making of TP53 is nature’s way of keeping this species alive.
The study also found that when the same genes were brought to life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance as elephants. This means researchers could use the discovery to develop new treatments that can help stop cancers spreading or even developing in the first place.
“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer,” said Joshua Schiffman, a biologist at the School of Medicine, University of Utah, US. “It’s up to us to learn how different animals deal with the problem so that we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people.”
12. Why are elephants unlikely to develop cancer
A. They have a rather large body size.
B. Their genes suffer no DNA damage.
C. Certain genes in their body kill existing tumors.
D. They carry many genes to prevent tumors developing.
13. According to the passage, what has been a risk in the evolution of large animals
A. Deadly tumors. B. The huge body mass.
C. Cells killing themselves. D. Sensitivity to DNA damage.
14. What does the underlined part “This phenomenon” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to
A. Larger animals have protection from TP53.
B. The risk of cancer is not related to body size.
C. Larger animals suffer the same risk of cancer as smaller ones.
D. The larger animals are, the bigger risk of cancer they will have.
15. What can be concluded from the passage
A. Depending on nature is surely enough to fight against cancer.
B. The TP53 genes have proved useful in stopping cancer in people.
C. Humans are expected to prevent cancer with the making of TP53.
D. The extra copies of elephants, genes are used to cure cancer patients.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【分析】科学家研究发现，大象不患癌症是因为他们的体内有很多阻止肿瘤生长的基因TP53，人们有望通过制造TP53预防癌症。
12题详解】
D
细节理解题。根据文章第二段To be precise, they found 20 copies of an anti-tumor gene called TP53 in elephants. Most other species, including humans, only carry one copy.可知大象携带的抗癌基因比其他物种多。故选D。
【13题详解】
A
细节理解题。根据文章第三段According to the research, the extra copies of the gene improved the animal’s sensitivity to DNA damage, which lets the cells quickly kill themselves when damaged before they can go on to form deadly tumors.可知肿瘤是极大威胁，故选A。
【14题详解】
B
词义猜测题。根据文章第四段最后一句But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.从而可知This phenomenon指代物种癌症的几率和他们的体型没有关系，所以选择B。
【15题详解】
C
推理判断题。根据文章最后一句It’s up to us to learn how different animals deal with the problem so that we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people并结合上文陈述的大象身上发现阻止肿瘤生长的基因TP53可以判断，人们有望通过制造TP53预防癌症，可知选C。
【名师点睛】

New college life is approached. I’m glad to hear that there will be six clubs for me to join in. Among those six clubs, the drawing club is my favorite one, that I’d most like to choose. On the one hand, I have been learning to draw for several years, but I hope the club can give me more chance to show my talent. Maybe I can have my own exhibitions and become a famously artist one day. On other hand, I expect to make more friends who has the same hobbies. I think I would have a wonderful college life if I can be a member of the club. I’m looking forward to them.
【答案】
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述自己新的大学生活开始，想参加绘画俱乐部。
【详解】第一处：approached-approaching 考查现在分词。approach作不及物动词时表示即将来临，所以没有被动语态，be doing 表明现在进行时表示将来时态，所以这里的意思是大学生活即将来临，故将approached改为approaching。
第二处：in去掉。考查动词。参加某项社团用join，join in表示参加某项游戏，活动，这里club属于社团，所以需将in去掉。
第三处：that-which 考查关系代词。that不能引导非限制性定语从句，需用which来引导，所以这里需将that改为which。
第四处：but-and 考查连词。这里的意思是我已经学习画画几年了，希望俱乐部能给我更多的机会展示我的才能，所以这里是并列关系，but表示转折关系，所以需改为and。
第五处：chance-chances 考查名词复数。由more可知，这里的机会不止一个，且chance为可数名词，所以这里需将chance改为复数形式。
第六处：famously-famous 考查形容词。famously为副词，常用来修饰动词，这里需用形容词来修饰名词artist，故需改为famous。
第七处：on 后加the 考查固定短语。on the other hand另一方面，为固定搭配。
第八处：has-have 考查主谓一致。该句为定语从句，句中的谓语动词的单复数取决于先行词，这里先行词是more friends，为复数，所以谓语动词需用复数形式have。
第九处：would-will 考查if引导的条件状语从句。if引导的条件状语从句遵循主将从现的规则，即主句用一般将来时，从句用一般现在时，所以这里需将would改为will。
第十处：them-it 考查代词。这里指的是期待a wonderful college life，所以需用代词it来指代。故将them改为it。
