Amazing Scientists Who Happen to Be Teenagers
We’ve got a list of teen scientists from a variety of fields.
Jack Andraka
Jack Andraka created a biological sensor for testing cancer at an early stage. He says that the paper sensor is
168 times faster, 26,667 times less expensive and 400 times more sensitive than technology nowadays.
He’s the youngest person to have spoken in front of the Royal Society of Medicine.
Taylor Wilson
Taylor Wilson was the youngest person to achieve nuclear fusion (核聚变). He was inspired by The
Radioactive Boy Scout, a novel in which a kid tries and fails to build a nuclear reactor.
Taylor thought he could do better. Long story short, he wanted to build a small nuclear reactor. And he did it
at the age of fourteen. He received a Thiel Fellowship, which gave him $100,000 to work on his own research.
Sara Volz
Sara Volz performed experiments in which she grew algae (藻类) based on their oil output for the purpose of
growing them as biofuel. This research is especially important as the world continues to search for a way to
reduce our dependence on non-renewable energy. She won the top prize of $100,000 in the Intel Science Talent
Search.
Daniel Burd
Plastic usually takes thousands of years to decompose (分解), but this high school student Daniel Burd
managed to do it in three months. In an experiment, he mixed plastic bags and a special kind of dirt
together, and found that they did decompose faster. He then performed tests to find the bacteria (细菌) responsible
for decomposing the plastics.
His solution only produces water and small amounts of carbon dioxide. He says it could easily be used
elsewhere.
1.Who invented a medical instrument
A.Jack Andraka. B.Taylor Wilson. C.Sara Volz. D.Daniel Burd.
2.What excited Taylor Wilson’s interest in his invention
A.A travel program. B.Plastic pollution. C.Energy shortage. D.A story book.
3.What do we know about Daniel Burd’s invention

The next time you have cheese loudly, remember the French scientist Louis Pasteur who discovered that bad
milk, and many diseases are caused by bacteria (细菌).
Louis Pasteur is known as the father of microbiology. In his lifetime, he not only proved that bacteria are the
cause of diseases, but also discovered the process of vaccination (接种疫苗), which has saved billions of lives.
When Pasteur worked with chickens that were suffering from cholera during his experiments, he accidentally
spread cholera to his chickens. Pasteur’s chickens became mildly sick but did not die. This was strange as every
chicken that came near cholera earlier had died. He realized soon that the cholera had become weak. By the time
he tried again, the chickens he had cured earlier did not get cholera anymore. He realized that a weak cholera
helped, his chickens develop an antibody against it.
Later, Pasteur went on to try this on cows, pigs and dogs. All his research helped him develop different
vaccines. We now know that the process of vaccination introduces a weakened kind of bacteria into our body. Our
body reacts by creating antibodies to fight the bacteria. Now, when our body come across the same bacteria which
are much stronger, it can fight them off.
Louis Pasteur received numerous awards for the advancement of biology, chemistry, and medicine. He
founded the Pasteur Institute to study diseases. It was the first university, to teach microbiology and today there
are 32 institutes across 29 countries. For every child vaccinated against a deadly disease, we have Louis Pasteur to
thank.
4.What do we know about Louis Pasteur
A.His discoveries weren’t used at his time.
B.He was a professor at the Pasteur Institute.
C.His discoveries brought many profits and awards to him.
D.He discovered the connection between bacteria and diseases.
5.What can we learn from his experiment with chickens
A.Cholera was not a deadly disease then.
B.Pasteur spread cholera to chickens on purpose.
C.All chickens suffered from cholera died at last.
D.The weakened cholera couldn’t kill the living creatures.
6.What is the function of the process of vaccination
A.It builds up people’s body. B.Without it, people will die.
C.It improves people’s ability to avoid diseases.D.It can kill all the diseases and make the sick healthy.
7.What is the purpose of the article
A.To show the discoveries of the vaccination.
B.To call on children to learn from Louis Pasteur.
C.To introduce an important invention in microbiology.
D.To honour Louis Pasteur and his contribution to the world.
C
Charles Darwin was born into a family of thinkers. His father was a Fellow of the Royal Society(the elite
circle of top British scientists),his mother was the daughter of Josiah Wedgwood,the man who founded the
famous Wedgwood Potteries,and his grandfather,Erasmus Darwin,was a famous physician,thinker and
philosopher who,like his grandson,spent much time studying the evolution of life.
After a childhood in the town of Shrewsbury,where he was educated at the Grammar School,Darwin
went up to Edinburgh University to study medicine and natural history. When he was eighteen,he left Edinburgh
and went to Cambridge University,planning to enter the church,but he was more interested in science than in
religion and later he abandoned theology.
Shortly after graduating from Cambridge,he got a job as a naturalist on the ship H. M. S. Beagle,which
was about to start on a scientific and cartographic(地图的)survey of the South American coast. The journey
started in December 1831 and was to last almost five years,during which time he collected considerable
documentation.
Darwin was struck by the animals of the south seas,particularly by the tortoises he found on the Galapagos
Islands,a group of Pacific Islands. The Galapagos tortoises,Darwin observed,differed from island to island,
and this,he inferred,showed different forms of evolution,since the animals obviously came from the same
origins. Darwin was also struck by the iguanas(蜥蜴)he found,and observed that those which lived in
water had heads suitable for finding food among stones,while those that lived on land had a sharper head,more
fit for a herbivorous(食草的)animal.
Darwin developed his theory of evolution,but it was not until 1859 that he actually published it. It was
instantly seen as a great milestone in scientific thought,and attracted violent argument all over Europe. Many
found fault in it,and Darwin spent the rest of his life improving his theory in the light of other people's
observations.
8.What is the purpose of para.1?
A.To honour his family.
B.To increase his popularity.
C.To show his family's influence on him.
D.To highlight his family's contributions.
9.What did Darwin end up studying at Cambridge University?
A.Science. B.Theology. C.Medicine. D.Natural history.
10.Why were the iguanas different from island to island?
A.Because of their types. B.Because of their habitats.
C.Because of their foods. D.Because of their origins.
11.What can be learned about Darwin's theory of evolution?
A.He felt quite content with it. B.He published it once finished.
C.It caused a worldwide disagreement. D.It was a great breakthrough in science.

Standing in my office 25 years ago was an unknown young astronomer with a half-smile on her face. She had
come with an impossible request that my team modify (修改) our thoroughly tested software to make one of our
most important scientific instruments do something it had never been designed for and risk breaking it. All to
carry out an experiment that was basically a waste of time and couldn’t be done—prove that a massive black hole
lay at the center of our Milky Way.
My initial “no way” gradually gave way in the face of her cheerful but firm determination. Andrea Ghez, one
of three winners of this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics, impressed me with her work on providing solid evidence of
a supermassive black hole with the mass of four million suns living at the center of the Milky Way galaxy.
That determination and the willingness to take calculated risks has always characterized Andrea. For 25 years
she has focused almost completely on Sagittarius A-the name of our own local supermassive black hole. It is
remarkable that an entire field of study has grown up in the quarter century, of searching for and finding evidence
of these monsters thought to lie at the heart of every large galaxy.
Andrea did her work at the W. M. Keck Observatory’s (天文台) twin telescopes on Maunakea, Hawaii, in
the calm and clear air almost 14000 feet above the Pacific Ocean. She started using the very first instrument fixed
on Keck Observatory’s Near Infrared Camera(NIRC), now gracing the lobby (大厅) at our headquarters.
Andrea is fond of pointing out that one of the reasons for her success has been this tight and rapid loop (循
环) between the needs of the astronomers and the engineers who responded to the challenge.
This is my friend and longtime colleague, the one who refused to take “no” for an answer: Andrea Ghez,
winner of the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physics.
12.Which words best describe Andrea Ghez
A.Confident and adaptable. B.Determined and creative.
C.Brave and kind. D.Cooperative and generous.
13.What is the passage mainly about
A.The Noble Prize for physics. B.How Andrea won the Nobel.
C.Friendship between colleagues. D.What makes Andrea different.
14.What does the underlined word “gracing” in Paragraph 4 mean
A.Bringing honour to. B.Being kind enough to attend.
C.Moving in a smooth way. D.Advancing the level.
15.From which is the text probably taken
A.A research paper. B.A science fiction.
C.A website about scientists. D.A fashion magazine.

Yoghurt
It was a rough week. The price of oil skyrocketed as the temperature dropped sharply in Maine. I had missed
three days of wok so my paycheck was going to be lower than normal. I was stresses, to say the least. I shopped
strategically, looking for every possible way to cut pennies so I could buy groceries and keep the house warm.
My eight-year-old son didn’t understand when I told him we were struggling that week. He wanted a special
kind of yoghurt, but I didn't have the extra three dollars to buy it for him. It was the kind of yoghurt with a cartoon
kid riding a skateboard on the front of the box, and a mere two spoonfuls in each cup. It was the kind of product
that wastes a parent’s money and makes me hate advertising.
I felt guilty as a parent when those big eyes looked at me with confusion, as if to say, “It’s just yoghurt.
What’s the big deal ” So I found a way. I put something back as single mothers often do. He got his yoghurt.
On the way driving back from the grocery store, I noticed a homeless man holding a sign by the side of the
road. My heart hurt, and I tried not to look at him. I watched people stay away from him on the street and walk by
without even meeting his eyes. My son didn’t seem to care much, either. I looked at the man closely then— bare
hands grasping a piece of cardboard, snot(鼻涕) frozen to his face, a worn-out jacket. And there I was struggling
because I had to buy oil and groceries, But I decided to help. I pulled over to the man and handed him a five-
dollar bill.
注意:续写词数应为 150 左右。

Seeing this, my son became confused and surprised.

realized that a weak cholera helped, his chickens develop an antibody against
it.(当巴斯德在实验中研究患有霍乱的鸡时,他不小心把霍乱传染给了他的鸡。巴斯德的鸡出现轻微疾
病,但没有死亡。这很奇怪,因为之前每只靠近霍乱的鸡都死了。他很快意识到霍乱已经不那么严重
了。当他再次尝试时,他之前治愈的鸡已经不再感染霍乱了。他意识到一种微弱的霍乱有帮助,他的鸡
产生了一种对抗霍乱的抗体)”可推知,有些鸡感染了霍乱却没有死,因为它们感染的霍乱已经被削弱了,
故被削弱的霍乱无法杀死生物。故选 D。
6.细节理解题。根据第四段“Later, Pasteur went on to try this on cows, pigs and dogs. All his research helped
him develop different vaccines. We now know that the process of vaccination introduces a weakened kind of

来他放弃了神学。)”可知,达尔文进入剑桥大学后,对科学更感兴趣,故推知他在剑桥大学最终主修科
学。故选 A。
10.推理判断题。根据第四段“Darwin was also struck by the iguanas (蜥蜴) he found, and observed that those
which lived in water had heads suitable for finding food among stones, while those that lived on land had a
sharper head, more fit for a herbivorous (食草的) animal.(达尔文也被他发现的蜥蜴所震撼了,并观察到那些
生活在水中的蜥蜴的头部适合在石头中寻找食物,而那些生活在陆地上的蜥蜴有更锋利的头部,更适合
食草动物。)可知,生活在水中的蜥蜴和生活在陆地上的蜥蜴是因为生活环境的不同导致生物进化差异。

具。故选 D 项。
17.该空为小标题,起总结段落作用。由下文“Many children wrote letters to ask him for help with their
homework. One day, he wrote a letter to a young girl to tell her not to worry about her Maths homework because
he thought Maths was difficult too. (许多孩子写信要求他帮他们做作业。一天,他写信给一个年轻女孩,告
诉她不要担心她的数学作业,因为他认为数学也很难)”可知,下文讲最伟大的科学家爱因斯坦也认为数学
也很难,说明他谦虚的品质,承接下文,A 选项“爱因斯坦也很谦虚”是最佳小标题。故选 A 项。
18.由小标题“Einstein considered time to be important (爱因斯坦认为时间很重要)”和上文“He never wore
socks because he thought putting on socks was a waste of time as people already wore shoes. He also thought
remembering things found in books was not worth it. (他从不穿袜子,因为人们已经穿鞋子了,所以他认为穿
袜子是浪费时间。他还认为,记住书本上的东西是不值得的)”可知,上文用具体事例讲明爱因斯坦不会做
浪费时间的一些事,表明他注重时间的重要性,G 选项“这就是为什么他从不记得自己的电话号码”承接上
文举出另一个爱因斯坦看重时间的例子,也讲明爱因斯坦为什么会这样做。故选 G 项。
19.由小标题“Einstein liked to joke too (爱因斯坦也喜欢开玩笑)”和“In one exam, a student asked him why
all the questions were the same as last year’s. Einstein replied the questions were the same, but the answers were
different. (在一次考试中,一个学生问爱因斯坦为什么所有的问题都和去年的一样。爱因斯坦回答的问题
都一样,但答案不同)”可知,B 选项“他是一个多么幽默的人啊”承接上文讲爱因斯坦拥有幽默感。故选 B
项。
20.分析句子结构可知,该空缺乏一个从句。由上文“When Einstein was a child, his teachers used to say he
was not clever. However, Einstein kept working hard and surprised the world with his achievements. (爱因斯坦
小时候,老师们常说他不聪明。然而,爱因斯坦一直在努力工作,他的成就令世界惊讶)”可知,爱因斯坦
被老师说不聪明,也没有放弃努力工作,可见永远不要遇到问题就放弃、气馁,承接上文,F 选项“如果
我们遇到问题时想放弃”用 If 引导条件状语从句,表明下文“we should think of him (我们应该想想他)”事情
发生的条件。故选 F 项。

46.Dear Jim,
I am very glad to introduce Zhong Nanshan to you.
Zhong Nanshan is one of the premier scientists and doctors in China. He was born in Guangzhou in 1941 and
graduated from Beijing Medical College. Then, in 1979, he went abroad for further education. This ordinary but
great man has been working in the medical field for over 50 years. In 2003 Zhong Nanshan fought in the battle
against the SARS epidemic. And at the beginning of the year of 2020, Zhong Nanshan,although aged 84, fought
again on the front line against the novel coronavirus which broke out in Wuhan, Hubei Province. Dangerous as it
was, Zhong Nanshan with his medical team worked hard day and night doing research and treating patients.
Hope you can learn more about Chinese scientists.
Yours,
Li Hua

47.Seeing this, my son became confused and surprised. “Mum, why are you so generous to this stranger while
so mean to me when I asked for a yoghurt ” I explained that if we were blind to the poor man’s situation he would
be freezing. He didn’t have a home or food to eat after all. We could spare five dollars even if we were financially
stressed. Finally, my son nodded and fixed his eyes on his yoghurt.
Then, my son performed an act that most adults wouldn’t have done. He took his yoghurt and handed it to the man
outside his window. Even if it was just a matter of a few spoons of yoghurt, it was all he had, and he gave it to
someone who needed it more than he wanted it. He showed me that I was doing well as a mother. There are
always blessings to count if we open our eyes, and always have the opportunity to be a blessing for someone else.
