Jack Andraka was 15 when he came up with an idea for a new way to test for pancreatic(胰腺) cancer. When Andraka was 14, a family friend died of the disease, and this affected him deeply. This kind of cancer is particularly serious because there is no test you can have done to find it in the early stages. By the time standard tests determine you have the disease, it is often too late. Realizing that this was the case, Andraka decided to try to develop a test that might catch problems at the earliest stages.
The road ahead looked difficult for Andraka. He was still a high school student, and he wanted to create something that no one else had done. Andraka read endlessly about the disease, wrote a proposal for his idea, and sent it out to 200 cancer researchers. Only one professor, Dr. Anirban Maitra, responded positively. Dr. Maitra agreed to work with Andraka on his idea, giving him guidance and access to a laboratory.
The next big reward for Andraka's perseverance was winning the grand prize at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. This great award is given to young innovators who have developed a world-changing idea. Developing the test is likely to take many years, but Andraka hopes the test will eventually improve people's lives and maybe save them.
Jack Andraka is not alone as a young innovator. After all, there were 1,499 other contestants for the Intel award, and all of them had ground-breaking ideas. For Andraka, having a family that loves science and encourages creative thinking gave him an advantage. But the key for Andraka is that reading, research, and discovery are just plain fun and the chance to improve the world around him in the process makes it even better.
4.What made Andraka decide to develop a test for pancreatic cancer
A.His friend's encouragement. B.An upsetting experience.
C.His extensive reading. D.An important test.
5.What difficulty did Andraka meet at the beginning of his research
A.Lack of positive replies from experts.
B.Heavy pressure from his schoolwork.
C.Little access to research equipment.
D.Great need for money to develop a test.
6.Which of the following leads to Andraka's award winning
A.The competition with other contestants.
B.His determination and persistence to improve the world.
C.The support from his family.
D.His passion for discovery.
7.What can we learn from Andraka's story
A.Practice makes perfect.
B.Hard work leads to success.
C.One good turn deserves another.

4.考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“When Andraka was 14, a family friend died of the disease, and this affected him deeply. This kind of cancer is particularly serious because there is no test you can have done to find it in the early stages. By the time standard tests determine you have the disease, it is often too late. Realizing that this was the case, Andraka decided to try to develop a test that might catch problems at the earliest stages.”Andraka 14岁时,家里的一个朋友死于这种疾病,这对他影响深远。这种癌症特别严重,因为在早期没有任何测试可以发现它。当标准测试确定你患有这种疾病时,通常已经太晚了。认识到这一点,Andraka决定尝试开发一种测试,可以在最早期的阶段发现问题。可知,因为一次令人苦恼的的经历,Andraka决定开发一种胰腺癌的检测方法。故选B。
5.考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“Andraka read endlessly about the disease, wrote a proposal for his idea, and sent it out to 200 cancer researchers. Only one professor, Dr.Anirban Maitra, responded positively. Dr.Maitra agreed to work with Andraka on his idea, giving him guidance and access to a laboratory. ”Andraka无休止地阅读有关这种疾病的资料,为他的想法写了一份提案,并把它发给了200名癌症研究人员。只有一位教授Anirban Maitra博士做出了积极回应。Maitra博士同意与Andraka一起研究他的想法,为他提供指导,并允许他进入实验室。可知,Andraka在他的研究开始时遇到了缺乏专家的积极回复困难。故选A。

7.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“But the key for Andraka is that reading, research, and discovery are just plain fun, and the chance to improve the world around him in the process makes it even better. ”但对Andraka来说,关键在于阅读、研究和发现只是单纯的乐趣,而在这个过程中改善他周围的世界的机会使它变得更加美好;以及从Andraka的故事中可知,努力工作是成功之道。故选B。

In 1981, a volume of letters written by his father, primarily to Mr. Fou, was published in China. Full of advice, encouragement, life teachings and strict paternal love, the book Fu Lei's Family Letters became a best-seller in China. Besides influencing a generation of Chinese, Mr. Fu's words resonated long after his death among people for whom they were intended.
"My father had a saying that 'First you must be a person, then an artist, and then a musician, and only then can you be a pianist'," Mr. Fou once recalled in an interview. "Even now, I believe in this order-that it should be this way and that I am this way."

Music is good for health. And drumming may be best of all. As well as being physically demanding, it requires people to adjust their limbs and to react to outside stimuli, such as what the rest of the band is up to. It is particularly helpful for children who have emotional and behavioral difficulties.
Researchers at the Clem Burke Drumming Project, an organization named after Blondie's drummer, who was one of its founders, have found that teaching such children to drum helps them to control their reactions more generally, to focus more effectively on tasks they are given, and to communicate better with other people.
The project's latest work, led by Cahart of King's College London, goes a step further. It looks at the neurological (神经系统的)changes which accompany these shifts.
Ms. Cahart and her colleagues found 36 autistic(自闭症的) teenagers and divided them into two groups. One had drum lessons twice a week for eight weeks. The others did not. At the beginning and end of the project everyone was asked to stay still for 45 minutes in a machine to see how the activity of their brains had changed. Their behavior was also recorded.
As expected, most of the drumming group showed positive behavioral changes. And these were indeed reflected in their brains. The machine scans showed that several groups of connectivity between parts of those brains had strengthened during the experiment. In particular, two regions involved in attention control, formed strong links, respectively, with places associated with introspection(内省) and with areas involved in understanding facial expressions.
These changes in the brain thus nicely match the changes in behavior which learning to drum brings. Not a surprise, perhaps. But a confirmation of drumming's power to heal(治愈) oneself.
12.Which is not the benefit of drumming for children who have emotional and behavioral difficulties
A.To be more brilliant and active.
B.To control their reactions more generally.
C.To communicate better with other people.
D.To focus more effectively on tasks they are given.
13.What are recorded in the process of the project
A.The way and frequency of drumming.
B.People's attention control on drumming.
C.People's emotion and their behavior.
D.Activity of people's brains and their behavior.
14.What are the main changes in the brain caused by drumming
A.Places associated with introspection are more active.
B.Connectivity between parts of brains is strengthened.
C.Regions involved in attention control become stronger. D .Changes in the brain cannot match the changes in behavior.
15.What is this article mainly about
A.The way of keeping healthy.
B.The healing effect of drumming.
C.The relationship between the brain and behavior.
D.The relationship between drumming and brain changes.

12.考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“teaching such children to drum helps them to control their reactions more generally, to focus more effectively on tasks they are given, and to communicate better with other people.”教这些孩子鼓乐有助于他们更全面地控制自己的反应,更有效地专注于他们被赋予的任务,更好地与他人交流。可知,对于情绪和行为有困难的儿童来说,击鼓的好处不包括使他们变得更加聪明和活跃。故选A。

Jack Andraka was 15 when he came up with an idea for a new way to test for pancreatic(胰腺) cancer. When Andraka was 14, a family friend died of the disease, and this affected him deeply. This kind of cancer is particularly serious because there is no test you can have done to find it in the early stages. By the time standard tests determine you have the disease, it is often too late. Realizing that this was the case, Andraka decided to try to develop a test that might catch problems at the earliest stages.
The road ahead looked difficult for Andraka. He was still a high school student, and he wanted to create something that no one else had done. Andraka read endlessly about the disease, wrote a proposal for his idea, and sent it out to 200 cancer researchers. Only one professor, Dr. Anirban Maitra, responded positively. Dr. Maitra agreed to work with Andraka on his idea, giving him guidance and access to a laboratory.
The next big reward for Andraka's perseverance was winning the grand prize at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. This great award is given to young innovators who have developed a world-changing idea. Developing the test is likely to take many years, but Andraka hopes the test will eventually improve people's lives and maybe save them.
Jack Andraka is not alone as a young innovator. After all, there were 1,499 other contestants for the Intel award, and all of them had ground-breaking ideas. For Andraka, having a family that loves science and encourages creative thinking gave him an advantage. But the key for Andraka is that reading, research, and discovery are just plain fun and the chance to improve the world around him in the process makes it even better.
4.What made Andraka decide to develop a test for pancreatic cancer
A.His friend's encouragement. B.An upsetting experience.

Mr.Fou soon moved to Poland, where he studied at the Warsaw Conservatory on a scholarship to prepare for the fifth International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw in 1955. He practiced so diligently that he hurt his fingers and was nearly cut from the first round of the competition.
Mr. Fou was one of the first Chinese pianists to achieve global prominence when he took third place in the International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw in 1955. He also won a special prize for his performance of Chopin's mazurkas. Almost overnight, he became a national hero. To China, Mr. Fou's recognition in a well-known international competition was proof that the country could stand on its own artistically in the West. Chinese reporters flocked to interview Mr. Fou, while many others sought out his father, Fu Lei, for advice on educating children.
In 1981, a volume of letters written by his father, primarily to Mr. Fou, was published in China. Full of advice, encouragement, life teachings and strict paternal love, the book Fu Lei's Family Letters became a best-seller in China. Besides influencing a generation of Chinese, Mr. Fu's words resonated long after his death among people for whom they were intended.
"My father had a saying that 'First you must be a person, then an artist, and then a musician, and only then can you be a pianist'," Mr. Fou once recalled in an interview. "Even now, I believe in this order-that it should be this way and that I am this way."

Music is good for health. And drumming may be best of all. As well as being physically demanding, it requires people to adjust their limbs and to react to outside stimuli, such as what the rest of the band is up to. It is particularly helpful for children who have emotional and behavioral difficulties.
Researchers at the Clem Burke Drumming Project, an organization named after Blondie's drummer, who was one of its founders, have found that teaching such children to drum helps them to control their reactions more generally, to focus more effectively on tasks they are given, and to communicate better with other people.
The project's latest work, led by Cahart of King's College London, goes a step further. It looks at the neurological (神经系统的)changes which accompany these shifts.
Ms. Cahart and her colleagues found 36 autistic(自闭症的) teenagers and divided them into two groups. One had drum lessons twice a week for eight weeks. The others did not. At the beginning and end of the project everyone was asked to stay still for 45 minutes in a machine to see how the activity of their brains had changed. Their behavior was also recorded.
As expected, most of the drumming group showed positive behavioral changes. And these were indeed reflected in their brains. The machine scans showed that several groups of connectivity between parts of those brains had strengthened during the experiment. In particular, two regions involved in attention control, formed strong links, respectively, with places associated with introspection(内省) and with areas involved in understanding facial expressions.
These changes in the brain thus nicely match the changes in behavior which learning to drum brings. Not a surprise, perhaps. But a confirmation of drumming's power to heal(治愈) oneself.
12.Which is not the benefit of drumming for children who have emotional and behavioral difficulties
A.To be more brilliant and active.
B.To control their reactions more generally.
C.To communicate better with other people.
D.To focus more effectively on tasks they are given.
13.What are recorded in the process of the project
A.The way and frequency of drumming.
B.People's attention control on drumming.
C.People's emotion and their behavior.
D.Activity of people's brains and their behavior.
14.What are the main changes in the brain caused by drumming
A.Places associated with introspection are more active.
B.Connectivity between parts of brains is strengthened.
C.Regions involved in attention control become stronger. D .Changes in the brain cannot match the changes in behavior.
15.What is this article mainly about
A.The way of keeping healthy.
B.The healing effect of drumming.
C.The relationship between the brain and behavior.
D.The relationship between drumming and brain changes.
