This year’s Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Tu Youyou (co-winner), whose research led to the discovery of artemisinin, a crucial new treatment for malaria. Artemisinin has saved hundreds of thousands of lives, and has led to improved health for millions of people. Over 200 million people around the world get malaria each year, and about 600,000 die from it. Artemisinin has become a vital part of the treatment for malaria, and is thought to save 100,000 lives a year in Africa alone.
Tu Youyou, a committed and patient scientist, was born in Ningbo, China, on 30 December 1930, and graduated from Peking University Medical School in 1955. After she graduated, she worked at the China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing. In 1967, the Chinese government formed a team of scientists with the objective of discovering a new treatment for malaria, and Tu Youyou was among the first researchers chosen. In the beginning, Tu Youyou went to Hainan, where malaria was more common, to study malaria patients. In 1969, she became the head of the project in Beijing, and decided to review ancient Chinese medical texts to find traditional botanical treatments for the disease. Her team examined over 2, 000 old medical texts, and evaluated 280, 000 plants for their medical properties. From their research, they discovered and tested 380 distinct ancient Chinese medical treatments that showed promise in the fight against malaria.
One medical text from the fourth century suggested using the extract from sweet wormwood to treat a fever. Tu’s team tested a collection of dried wormwood leaves but found no effect. They then tried boiling fresh wormwood, and using the liquid obtained from this to treat malaria, but this did not work either. Their project got stuck. However, Tu Youyou would not acknowledge defeat. She analysed the medical texts again, and by chance, she found one sentence suggesting a different way to treat the wormwood. She concluded that boiling the sweet wormwood apparently destroyed its medical properties. Using a lower temperature to draw out the extract, she found a substance that worked. After failing more than 190 times, the team finally succeeded in 1971. Tu Youyou and her team members even insisted on testing the medicine on themselves to make sure that it was safe. Later, the medicine was tested on malaria patients, most of whom recovered. This medicine, which was called artemisinin, soon became a standard treatment for malaria.
According to Tu Youyou, the discovery of artemisinin was a team effort. Upon hearing that she had been awarded the Nobel Prize, she said, “The honour is not just mine. There is a team behind me, and all the people of my country. This success proves the great value of traditional Chinese medicine. It is indeed an honour for China’s scientific research and Chinese medicine to be spread around the world.”
8. Which of the following statements about artemisinin is NOT true according to the passage
A. It is an extract from sweet wormwood that can treat malaria.
B. It has improved people’s health.
C. It is a great discovery.
D. It has saved 100,000 lives a year in the world.
9. What’s the meaning of the underlined word
A. Determined. B. Bold and brave. C. Easy-going. D. Polite.
10 What is the main idea of the third paragraph
A. How was artemisinin discovered and tested to treat malaria
B. What contributions did Tu Youyou and her team members make
C. What was the childhood experience of Tu Youyou
D. Why did Tu Youyou decide to use the extract from sweet wormwood to treat malaria
11. According to Tu Youyou, what does the success of artemisinin prove
A. It is the effort of the whole team and traditional Chinese medicine.
B. It belongs to her hard work.
C. It turns out to be the great luck of her and her team.
D. It depends on the big support from the government.
D
Many studies have shown the learning-by-teaching effect. Students who spend time teaching what they’ve learned show better understanding and ability to remember knowledge than students who simply spend the same time re-studying. But why does teaching help
Researchers did a study to test their idea that teaching improves the teacher’s learning because it forces the teacher to find back what they’ve learned. They asked 124 students to spend ten minutes studying a text with numbers on a topic which is completely new to them. They told the students they could take notes while studying, but would teach the material afterwards without notes. After studying the text, the students were divided into four groups. In one group the students spent five minutes giving a lesson on the study material without notes. The other groups either spent the same time completing arithmetic (算术) problems, teaching with a script (讲稿) or writing down all they could remember from the text—a form of recalling practice. A week later, all the students took a surprise test of their knowledge and understanding of the text.
The important finding is that the teaching-without-notes group and the recalling-practice group performed better than the group that completed arithmetic problems and the group that taught with a script.
The researchers said the result shows that the benefits of the learning-by-teaching method are caused by recalling practice; that is, the learning-by-teaching method works only when the teaching includes recalling the taught materials.
The new findings have a practical suggestion for how the learning-by-teaching method is used in education. In order to make sure that students learn and remember an educational material, they should internalize (内化) the material before presenting it to others, rather than depend on notes during the presentation process.
12. Why does the author give a question in Paragraph 1
A. To look for readers’ answer. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To keep a sense of mystery. D. To show off his knowledge.
13. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. Why the study started. B. How the study was done.
C. How many people joined in the study. D. What conclusion the researchers made.
14. What should be stressed in school education according to the author
A. Previewing-by-teaching. B. Note-taking.
C. Learning-by-teaching. D. Mind-mapping.
15. Where is the text probably from
A. A history textbook. B. A newspaper.
C A guideline. D. A detective novel.

The way you use your cellphones around your family can have an effect on your relationships. Cellphones can make you feel more connected, but they can also distract (使分心) you and your family from connecting with each other in person. While some people need to check their phones for work or emergency (紧急情况) purposes, it’s important to make meaningful connections through face to face communication.
Some people have trouble putting away their cellphones. They might feel they can’t control how often they pick up their phones or how long they use them. They might feel the need to often check phones without a real reason or feel upset if they don’t have an opportunity to use their phones. Using cellphones for work purposes during family time can increase worries and unhappiness among family members. While using their cellphones, parents talk to their kids less, reply more slowly, and overreact to being interrupted. And ignoring their partner while on the phone is linked to lower relationship satisfaction among couples.
Once you’ve given some thought to your own cellphone use, think about the rules you want your family to follow when you’re together. To get your family on the same page, call a family meeting. Review each person’s current cellphone use and areas where you think some changes might help. It’s not just about simply cutting cellphone use down. Instead, consider what you’re using your phone for and what activities you want to carry out.
For example, are you or your children using phones to stay connected, learn something new, do school work, or do something else If you have kids, ask their opinions on your own phone use. You might be surprised by what they have to share. Use good communication skills by practicing active listening and showing curiosity about what each family member has to say.
Less phone use also usually means less screen time, which enables kids to spend more time outdoors and be more physically active. When teens spend more time actively with their parents, they tend to set higher educational goals.
16. What’s the first paragraph mainly about
A. Family members’ connections. B. Cellphones’ new challenges at home.
C. One disadvantage of the cellphones. D. People’s staying away from cellphones.
17. How do some people feel when they have no phone at hand
A Uneasy. B. Uncertain. C. Curious. D. Homesick.
18. Why should a family meeting be held
A. To carry out activities. B. To reach an agreement.
C. To share the latest news. D. To set an example to others.
19. What can be the best title for the text
A. Are Cellphones Influencing Family Time
B. Are Mobile Phones Changing People’s Life
C. How Can People Get Along with Their Parents
D. How Do Children Set Right Educational Goals

This year’s Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Tu Youyou (co-winner), whose research led to the discovery of artemisinin, a crucial new treatment for malaria. Artemisinin has saved hundreds of thousands of lives, and has led to improved health for millions of people. Over 200 million people around the world get malaria each year, and about 600,000 die from it. Artemisinin has become a vital part of the treatment for malaria, and is thought to save 100,000 lives a year in Africa alone.
Tu Youyou, a committed and patient scientist, was born in Ningbo, China, on 30 December 1930, and graduated from Peking University Medical School in 1955. After she graduated, she worked at the China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing. In 1967, the Chinese government formed a team of scientists with the objective of discovering a new treatment for malaria, and Tu Youyou was among the first researchers chosen. In the beginning, Tu Youyou went to Hainan, where malaria was more common, to study malaria patients. In 1969, she became the head of the project in Beijing, and decided to review ancient Chinese medical texts to find traditional botanical treatments for the disease. Her team examined over 2, 000 old medical texts, and evaluated 280, 000 plants for their medical properties. From their research, they discovered and tested 380 distinct ancient Chinese medical treatments that showed promise in the fight against malaria.
One medical text from the fourth century suggested using the extract from sweet wormwood to treat a fever. Tu’s team tested a collection of dried wormwood leaves but found no effect. They then tried boiling fresh wormwood, and using the liquid obtained from this to treat malaria, but this did not work either. Their project got stuck. However, Tu Youyou would not acknowledge defeat. She analysed the medical texts again, and by chance, she found one sentence suggesting a different way to treat the wormwood. She concluded that boiling the sweet wormwood apparently destroyed its medical properties. Using a lower temperature to draw out the extract, she found a substance that worked. After failing more than 190 times, the team finally succeeded in 1971. Tu Youyou and her team members even insisted on testing the medicine on themselves to make sure that it was safe. Later, the medicine was tested on malaria patients, most of whom recovered. This medicine, which was called artemisinin, soon became a standard treatment for malaria.
According to Tu Youyou, the discovery of artemisinin was a team effort. Upon hearing that she had been awarded the Nobel Prize, she said, “The honour is not just mine. There is a team behind me, and all the people of my country. This success proves the great value of traditional Chinese medicine. It is indeed an honour for China’s scientific research and Chinese medicine to be spread around the world.”
8. Which of the following statements about artemisinin is NOT true according to the passage
A. It is an extract from sweet wormwood that can treat malaria.
B. It has improved people’s health.
C. It is a great discovery.
D. It has saved 100,000 lives a year in the world.
9. What’s the meaning of the underlined word
A. Determined. B. Bold and brave. C. Easy-going. D. Polite.
10. What is the main idea of the third paragraph
A. How was artemisinin discovered and tested to treat malaria
B. What contributions did Tu Youyou and her team members make
C. What was the childhood experience of Tu Youyou
D. Why did Tu Youyou decide to use the extract from sweet wormwood to treat malaria
11. According to Tu Youyou, what does the success of artemisinin prove
A. It is the effort of the whole team and traditional Chinese medicine.
B. It belongs to her hard work.
C. It turns out to be the great luck of her and her team.
D. It depends on the big support from the government.

【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“According to Tu Youyou, the discovery of artemisinin was a team effort. Upon hearing that she had been awarded the Nobel Prize, she said, “The honour is not just mine. There is a team behind me, and all the people of my country. This success proves the great value of traditional Chinese medicine. It is indeed an honour for China’s scientific research and Chinese medicine to be spread around the world.”(屠呦呦说,青蒿素的发现是一个团队的努力。当得知自己获得诺贝尔奖时,她说:“这荣誉不只是我一个人的。我身后有一个团队,还有我的国家的所有人民。这一成功证明了中医的巨大价值。这确实是中国科学研究和中医药传播到世界各地的荣誉。”)”可知,屠呦呦认为,青蒿素的成功是整个团队和中医的共同努力。故选A。

Many studies have shown the learning-by-teaching effect. Students who spend time teaching what they’ve learned show better understanding and ability to remember knowledge than students who simply spend the same time re-studying. But why does teaching help
Researchers did a study to test their idea that teaching improves the teacher’s learning because it forces the teacher to find back what they’ve learned. They asked 124 students to spend ten minutes studying a text with numbers on a topic which is completely new to them. They told the students they could take notes while studying, but would teach the material afterwards without notes. After studying the text, the students were divided into four groups. In one group the students spent five minutes giving a lesson on the study material without notes. The other groups either spent the same time completing arithmetic (算术) problems, teaching with a script (讲稿) or writing down all they could remember from the text—a form of recalling practice. A week later, all the students took a surprise test of their knowledge and understanding of the text.
The important finding is that the teaching-without-notes group and the recalling-practice group performed better than the group that completed arithmetic problems and the group that taught with a script.
The researchers said the result shows that the benefits of the learning-by-teaching method are caused by recalling practice; that is, the learning-by-teaching method works only when the teaching includes recalling the taught materials.
The new findings have a practical suggestion for how the learning-by-teaching method is used in education. In order to make sure that students learn and remember an educational material, they should internalize (内化) the material before presenting it to others, rather than depend on notes during the presentation process.
12. Why does the author give a question in Paragraph 1
A. To look for readers’ answer. B. To introduce the topic.

The way you use your cellphones around your family can have an effect on your relationships. Cellphones can make you feel more connected, but they can also distract (使分心) you and your family from connecting with each other in person. While some people need to check their phones for work or emergency (紧急情况) purposes, it’s important to make meaningful connections through face to face communication.
Some people have trouble putting away their cellphones. They might feel they can’t control how often they pick up their phones or how long they use them. They might feel the need to often check phones without a real reason or feel upset if they don’t have an opportunity to use their phones. Using cellphones for work purposes during family time can increase worries and unhappiness among family members. While using their cellphones, parents talk to their kids less, reply more slowly, and overreact to being interrupted. And ignoring their partner while on the phone is linked to lower relationship satisfaction among couples.
Once you’ve given some thought to your own cellphone use, think about the rules you want your family to follow when you’re together. To get your family on the same page, call a family meeting. Review each person’s current cellphone use and areas where you think some changes might help. It’s not just about simply cutting cellphone use down. Instead, consider what you’re using your phone for and what activities you want to carry out.
For example, are you or your children using phones to stay connected, learn something new, do school work, or do something else If you have kids, ask their opinions on your own phone use. You might be surprised by what they have to share. Use good communication skills by practicing active listening and showing curiosity about what each family member has to say.
Less phone use also usually means less screen time, which enables kids to spend more time outdoors and be more physically active. When teens spend more time actively with their parents, they tend to set higher educational goals.
16. What’s the first paragraph mainly about
A. Family members’ connections. B. Cellphones’ new challenges at home.
C. One disadvantage of the cellphones. D. People’s staying away from cellphones.
17. How do some people feel when they have no phone at hand
A. Uneasy. B. Uncertain. C. Curious. D. Homesick.
18. Why should a family meeting be held
A. To carry out activities. B. To reach an agreement.
C. To share the latest news. D. To set an example to others.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国人喜欢喝茶以及中国茶的历史。
【85题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:最初,茶被用作一种药物而不是饮料。分析句子结构可知,空处为句子的谓语动词。根据Originally可知,句子为一般过去时态,主语tea和动词use之间为被动关系。所以用一般过去时的被动语态。主语为不可数名词tea。故填was used。
【86题详解】
考查介词。句意:后来,随着古代中国人对茶的特征进行了进一步的探索,他们将茶从草药中分离出来,制成一种饮料,并逐渐发展成为中国的茶文化。separate...from...“从……中把……分离出来”。故填from。
【87题详解】
考查副词。句意:后来,随着古代中国人对茶的特征进行了进一步的探索,他们将茶从草药中分离出来,制成一种饮料,并逐渐发展成为中国的茶文化。空处修饰后面的句子,所以需要副词。故填gradually。
【88题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:记录显示,饮茶习俗始于西汉,在魏朝时成为社会地位较高的人的一种时尚。分析句子结构可知,空处引导宾语从句,从句句意完整,不缺成分,所以用that引导。故填that。
【89题详解】
考查冠词。句意:记录显示,饮茶习俗始于西汉,在魏朝时成为社会地位较高的人的一种时尚。根据句意可知,饮茶在魏朝时成为社会地位较高的人的一种时尚,所以空处表示泛指,空后fashion为辅音音素开头。故填a。
【90题详解】
考查形容词。句意:记录显示,饮茶习俗始于西汉,在魏朝时成为社会地位较高的人的一种时尚。空处需要形容词作定语,修饰后面的名词position。故填social。
【91题详解】
考查不定式。句意:在唐朝,喝茶很常见。本题考查句型“It is +adj.+ to do sth”。it为形式主语,动词不定式为真正的主语。故填to drink。
【92题详解】
考查可数名词单复数。句意:人们尝试了更多的喝茶方式。根据空前的more可知,空处需要可数名词的复数形式。故填ways。
【93题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在宋代,茶叶种植和贸易不断增加,制茶技术也得到了极大的提高。空处作介词of的宾语,所以需要动名词形式。故填making。
【94题详解】
考查时态。句意:到了元朝,喝茶已经成为日常生活中非常普遍的事情。根据时间状语“By the Yuan Dynasty”可知,句子为过去完成时态。故填had become。
