According to the National Federation of the Blind, fewer than l0 percent of the l. 3 million people who are legally blind in the Us are braille readers. But one woman has made a difference in their lives and my son, s life, too.
35 years ago, my son, Jared , was born blind. Fortunately , I learned about her life-changing organization when Jared’s teacher of the visually-impaired（ 视力受损) introduced us to seedlings Braille Books for Children. It was founded by Debra Bonde, and although she did not plan to start a nonprofit back in l984, she ended up helping blind children all over the world.
A shy woman, Debra just wanted to find a volunteer job she could do without having to talk to anyone. so , she signed up for a braille transcription（ 转录) class in the hope of translating books into braille in the basement of her Detroit home.
Debra began transcribing popular children’s books, like 0h, The Thinks you Can Think , printing them on a braille printer and selling them for just the cost of the paper.
Word spread among parents and teachers of blind children, and demand grew for more of her books. Friends helped her to form a nonprofit so she could start getting grants（拨款) and donations to help with production costs. She named it seedlings Braille Books for Children because she believes that if you give a child a book, the love for reading will grow. That first year, she printed 22l books. Seedlings has produced and distributed more than 600 ,000 books across the world so far. They give half of their books away for free. The other half are sold for an average price of only l0 dollars each, about half the cost of producing them.
As a mother, I appreciated that seedlings provided " typical " experiences for Jared in school. seedlings supplied braille books to the libraries of the school Jared attended so he could check out books just like his sighted classmates. since books from seedlings were affordable, it was possible to have a home library. without the childhood skills seedlings provided to Jared, he would not have a job as a software engineer now.
24. How did the author get to know the organization seedlings Braille Books for Children
A. From Jared’ s teacher.
B. From the library.
C. From her friend.
D. From other parents.
25. why did Debra sign up for a braille transcription class
A. To make a living. B. To read more braille books.
C. To do volunteer work alone. D. To start anon-profit organization.
26. which of the following can best describe Debra Bonde
A. Talented and social. B. shy and generous.
C. Helpful and brave. D. Mild and neat.
27 . what can we infer from the last paragraph
A. The author lived an easy and rich life.
B. Jared got along well with all his classmates.
C. The author attached importance to her son ' s reading.
D. Jared will spread the skills he learned during his childhood.
C
" We are running out of space and the only places to go to are other worlds. spreading out may be the only thing that saves us from ourselves. I'm convinced that humans need to leave Earth. " These are the words of the famous scientist Stephen Hawking, spoken at a science festival in Norway in 20l7, a year before his death.
Hawking was not alone in this view. Many experts feel that the only way for humanity to last far into the future is to colonize(移民于) other planets. That way, if a terrible disease , nuclear war or some other disaster strikes Earth , civilization as we know it would still have a chance. Mars is one of the most attractive destinations. NASA, the United Arab Emirates, the private company space X , and the organization Mars0ne all have plans to send humans there. " Either we spread Earth to other planets, or we risk going extinct ," space X founder Elon Musk said at a conference in 20l3 .
But not everyone agrees that colonizing Mars or any other planet is such a great plan. The most common argument against going is that it ' s just too expensive or dangerous. I twill take huge amounts of money and other resources just to get people there, let alone setup a place for them to live. It' s not even clear if humans could survive on Mars. 0ne of the biggest dangers there is deadly radiation that ruins the planet.
Maybe all the time and money people would pour into a Mars mission would be better spent on more urgent projects here on Earth, like dealing with poverty or climate change. some experts argue that handling a problem like an asteroid ( 小行星)strike or disease outbreak while staying here on Earth would be much easier and less expensive than surviving on a new planet.
In addition , moving to a new planet could harm or destroy anything that already lives there. Mar seems uninhabited, but it could possibly host micro-organism like. Human visitors may destroy this life or permanently change or damage the Martian environment. Some feel that ' s too much of a risk to take.
28 . why did the author mention NASA, the United Arab Emirates, space X and Mars 0ne
A. To stress the risk of dying out on Earth.
B. To provide evidence for Hawking ' s theory.
C. To show growing intention of moving to Mars.
D. To explain the advanced technology in astronomy.
29. what can we learn from the text
A. It is costly and risky to colonize Mars. B. Civilization is difficult to maintain on Earth.
C. Poverty is the most urgent problem to handle. D. All the time and money should be spent on Earth.
30. what does the underlined word " uninhabited " in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Not steady to keep. B. Not fit to live on.
C. Not easy to approach. D. Not safe to set foot on.
3l. which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Mars, 0ur Future Planet B. Moving to a New Planet
C. Should we Colonize Mars D. Stay Home or 0uter space
D
As a popular subject of study among evolutionary ecologists, three-spined stickleback is known for their different shapes, sizes, and behaviors — they can even live in both seawater and freshwater, and under a wide range of temperatures. But what makes that
The researchers tracked six populations of the fish before and after seasonal changes to their environment, using genome sequencing. seasonal changes result in great changes in habitat structure and balance of saltwater and freshwater, and only those fish able to tolerate these rapid changes survive in- to the next season.
" These changes probably resemble the habitat shifts experienced by stickleback populations during the past l0 ,000 years," says Professor Barrett. " We hope to gain insight into the genetic changes that may have resulted from natural selection long in the past. "
Remarkably, the researchers discovered the evidence of genetic changes driven by the seasonal shifts in habitats , which mirrored the differences found between long-established freshwater and salt-water populations. "These genetic changes occurred in independent populations over a single season, highlighting just how quickly the effects of natural selection can be detected," says Professor Barrett. "The findings suggest that we maybe able to use the genetic differences to predict how populations may adapt to the environment. "
The research emphasizes the importance of studying species in dynamic environments to gain a better understanding of how natural selection operates. In further research , they plan to investigate how repeatable the observed genetic changes are , by testing whether they show up year after year. Doing so would demonstrate their ability to reliably forecast the evolutionary future of these populations.
32. what does the underlined word " that " refer to in Paragraph l
A. stickleback is under a wide range of temperatures.
B. stickleback is popular with evolutionary ecologists.
C. stickleback can adapt to different living conditions.
D. stickleback has different shapes , sizes , and behaviors.
33. what is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The difficulties of the research.
B. The purpose of the research.
C. The background of the research.
D. The methods of the research.
34 . what is the main reason for stickleback ' s survival
A. Habitat shifts.
B. Genetic changes.
C. Seasonal changes.
D. Independent populations.
35 . why will scientists study the repetition of the genetic changes
A. To know what natural selection is.
B. To study species in dynamic environments.
C. To test the reliability of the present discoveries.
D. To forecast the evolutionary future of certain species.

Since 1960, considerable scientific researches have been done on chimps in their natural habitats. Astonishingly, scientists have found out that the social ____41____ of Chimps are very similar to humans. Chimps will ____42____ in certain ways, like gathering together to protect their land. But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings, they have little instinct (本能) to ____43____ one another. Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves. Even chimp mothers regularly ____44____ to share food with their children. Who are able from a young age to gather their own food
In the laboratory, chimps don’t ____45____ share food either. If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull in one plate of food for himself or, with no greater effort, a plate that also provides food for a neighbor to the next cage, he will pull ____46____ -he just doesn’t care whether his neighbor gets fed or not. Chimps are truly selfish.
Human children, ____47____, are extremely cooperative. From the earliest ages, they decide to help others, to share information and to participate in achieving common goals. The psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this ____48____ in a series of experiments with very young children. He finds that if babies aged 18 months see a worried adult with hands full trying to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help.
There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help, inform and share are not taught, but naturally ____49____ in young children. One is that these instincts appear at a very _____50_____ age before most parents have started to train their children to behave _____51_____. Another is that the helping behaviors are not improved if the children are rewarded. A third reason is that social intelligence _____52_____ in children before their general cognitive(认知的) skills, at least when compared with chimps. In tests conducted by Tomasello, the human children did no better than the chimps on the _____53_____ world tests but were considerably better at understanding the social world.
The core (核心) of what children’s minds have and chimps’ don’t is what Tomasello calls shared intentionality. Part of this ability is that they can _____54_____ what others know or are thinking. But beyond that, even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose. They actively seek to be part of a “we”, a group that intends to work toward a(n) _____55_____goal.
41. A. structures B. responsibilities C. policies D. behaviors
42. A. conflict B. offend C. cooperate D. discuss
43. A. help B. contact C. divide D. trust

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
If you had to choose one word to describe Kevin, it might have been “slow”. He didn’t learn his ABCs as fast as other kids. He never came in first in the schoolyard races. However, his smile was brighter than the sun in June; his heart was bigger than the mountain sky. Kevin’s enthusiasm for life was quite infectious.
When Kevin joined the boys’ school basketball team, basketball became the center of his life. At practice, he worked so hard that you’d think he was preparing for the NBA. He liked to stand in a certain place near the free-throw line and shoot at the basket. Patiently, he stood there throwing ball after ball after ball. “Look at me, Coach!” he’d shout at Randy, jumping up and down with the excitement of shooting.
Kevin and his whole team truly loved basketball. But just loving the game didn’t help them win. More balls fell out of the basket than into it, and the boys lost every game that season, except one—the night when it snowed and the other team couldn’t make it to the game.
It was a cold snowing afternoon when their last game came. As the last-place team, they played against the first-place team. The game went pretty much the same as expected, and near the middle of the fourth quarter Kevin’s team stood nearly 30 points behind.
At that point, one of Kevin’s teammates called time-out. As he came to the side, Randy couldn’t imagine why the time-out had been called. “Coach,” said the boy. “This is our last game and I know that Kevin has played in every game, but he’s never made a basket. I think we should let Kevin make a basket.” With the game completely out of reach, the idea seemed reasonable, so the plan was made. When they had the ball again, they passed it to Kevin who was standing in his special place near the free-throw line.

作文一：
Friendliness is a traditional virtue of the Chinese people. We need to pay attention to the small details in our daily life, such as greeting people with a smile when walking in the street or helping others in need. Such little actions can help bridge the gap between people and create a harmonious society. Moreover, friendly behavior has a great potential to make a positive impact on the lives of those we interact with. Therefore, it is important that we start encouraging kindness and respect to others. Let’s create a friendlier world together!
续写：【答案】His first shot bounced around but missed. As soon as Kevin’s teammates had the ball again, they passed it to Kevin who was standing in the certain place near the free-throw line. He shot it slowly, but he missed it again. Nevertheless, all the players of his team kept throwing the ball to him and clapped him with encouragement. Very soon the audience figured out what was happening, so one by one they stood up and clapped their hands. The whole playground thundered with the clapping and shouting, “Kevin! Kevin!” And Kevin just kept shooting.
Finally, the ball took one bounce and went in unexpectedly. With arms shooting high into the air, Kevin shouted, “I won! I won!” He jumped high and hugged every teammate excitedly. Everyone could see tears welling in his eyes. They began to shout wildly and clap their hands to congratulate him. The feathery snow danced in the late afternoon air, making a beautiful sight. The clock ticked off the last few seconds and the first-place team remained undefeated. Even though they lost this game again that afternoon, everyone left the playground truly feeling like a winner.
