Bob and Eliza Shaw started taking pictures of their son, Noah, practically from the moment he was born. When he was about three months old, Eliza noticed something strange when she took his picture. The flash on their digital camera created the typical red do t in the center of Noah’s left eye, but the right eye had a white spot at the center, almost as if the flash was being reflected back at the camera by something. When Eliza mentioned the strange phenomenon to their ophthalmologist（眼科医生）, she shined a light into Noah’s eye and saw the same white reflection instead of a red one, which is a sign of retinal（视网膜的） cancer, and that is exactly what Noah had. He endured months of treatment, but doctors could not save his eye.
Noah’s disease would be treatable if diagnosed（诊断） early. Bob couldn’t help but wonder whether there were signs he’d missed. He went back over every baby picture of Noah he could find — thousands of them — and discovered the first white spot in a photo taken when Noah was 12 days old. As time went on, it appeared more frequently.
It was too late for Noah’s eye, but Bob was determined to put his hard-won insights to good use. He created a database that charted the cancer’s appearance in every photo. He also collected photos and data from eight other children with retinal cancer. Armed with those data, he began to work with colleagues in the computer science department to develop a smart phone App that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for the white eye spot and can be used as a kind of ophthalmoscope（眼底镜）. Called White Eye Detector, it is now available for free. “I just kept telling myself, I really need to do this,” Bob told People. “This disease is tough to detect. Not only can this software save vision, but it can save lives.”
24. How did Eliza find Noah with retinal cancer
A. She took Noah to have a regular health check.
B. She found something strange with their ophthalmologist.
C. She noticed the colors of reflections were different in Noah’s eyes.
D. She noticed a white reflection in the center of Noah’s left eye.
25. Why did Bob go over every baby picture of Noah
A. Because he wanted to figure out what signs he had missed.
B. Because he tried to find some methods to cure his son.
C. Because he could recall the past through these pictures.
D. Because he decided to put this experience to good use.
26. What does the underlined word “detect” mean in the last paragraph
A. treat B. spot C. cure D. feel
27. Which of the following words can best describe Bob
A. Loyal and helpful. B. Persistent and selfless.
C. Diligent and smart. D. Responsible and independent,
C
For any spaceman hoping to survive on the surface of the moon, growing crops will be important. Now, scientists have taken “one small step” towards growing plants on the lunar surface, after showing it’s possible to grow thale cress, a small flowering plant, in the lunar soil.
The findings raise hopes that plants could be grown on the moon during future space missions（任务）, and even enable mankind to set up a lunar settlement. “For future, longer space missions, we may use the moon as a launching platform（平台）,” explained Professor Rob Ferl. “It makes sense that we would want to use the soil that’s already there to grow plants.” Until now, scientists have not grown plants in the soil. “So, what happens when you grow plants in the lunar soil What would plants do in a lunar greenhouse Could we have lunar farmers ” Professor Ferl questioned.
To answer these questions, researchers from Florida set out to plant thale cress seeds in the lunar soil, add water, nutrients and light, and see what happened. The researchers chose to use thale cress because its genetic code （基因序列） has already been fully mapped. For comparison, the researchers also planted seeds in a range of soils, including those that are similar to the Martian soil. To their delight, the researchers found that nearly all of the seeds grew. However, they did observe differences between the plants grown in the lunar soil and those grown in the control soils. Some of the plants grown in the lunar soil were smaller, while others grew more slowly or were more varied in size.
Growing plants in the lunar soil may also change the moon itself, according to Dr. Stephen Elardo. “The moon is a very, very dry place,” he said. How will minerals in the lunar soil respond to having a plant grown in them, with the added water and nutrients Will adding water make the minerals friendlier to plants The researchers hope to answer these questions in follow-up studies.
28. What’s the second paragraph mainly about
A. The plants grown in the lunar soil.
B. The significance of the findings.
C. The missions of future space exploration.
D. The hope for setting up a lunar settlement.
29. Why did researchers use thale cress in the experiment
A. Its genes are suitable for the lunar soil.
B. People have a good knowledge of its genes.
C. It has been tested with the lunar soil before.
D. It has a long evolutionary history.
30. What did researchers find about the plants grown in the lunar soil
A. They absorbed few minerals.
B. They grew slowly in the dark.
C. They didn’t grow well enough.
D. They needed more water to grow bigger.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Preparing for Farming on the Moon
B. Conducting a Study on the Lunar Soil
C. Growing Plants in the Lunar Soil
D. Making the Lunar Soil Friendlier to Plants
D
We’ve all heard about techniques to get us more physically active — take the stairs and park the car a bit further from your destination. Now a study led by Dr. Buchman finds even simple housework may benefit brain health for the elderly.
“Our study shows exercise is an inexpensive way to improve health. It also shows exercise may have a protective effect on the brain,” says Dr. Buchman.
Previous research found just 45 minutes of walking three days a week actually increased brain volume.
The new study is unique. Dr. Buchman was able to analyze the actual brains of the study participants.
The study looked at 454 older adults who were over 70 years old when the research began. Of those adults, 191 had behavioral signs of dementia（痴呆） and 263 did not.
In the research, each participant wore an activity monitor called an accelerometer（加速度计）. It measured those participants’ physical activity around the clock — everything from walking around the house to exercise routines. Researchers collected and evaluated ten days of movement data for each participant and calculated the levels of daily movement.
The findings show that higher levels of daily movement were linked to better thinking and memory skills. And when Dr. Buchman analyzed brain tissue under a microscope, this finding turned out to be the case even for individuals with at least three signs of Alzheimer’s disease（阿尔茨海默病）. Even though these individuals might have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, 30 percent of them had“normal”cognition（认知）, says Dr. Buchman.
Why one person shows signs of dementia and another, who has similar degenerative（退行的） changes in the brain, does not, is a mystery. But Dr. Buchman says the new findings suggest that physical activity may be protective, even among developing Alzheimer’s. It sort of masks the symptoms, he says. It suggests that you can have some control over your brain health even if you don’t have control over developing Alzheimer’s.
And, while intense exercise is highly beneficial, light activity can make a difference as well. “As long as you are doing exercise and you’re moving, whether you’re chopping onions or sweeping the floor, you can reduce your risk of cognitive decline,” says Dr. Buchman.
32. What does the new study led by Dr. Buchman find out
A. Simple housework is a good way to get us more physically active.
B. Walking for 45 minutes twice a week can increase brain volume.
C. Exercise is the most expensive way to improve our mental and physical health.
D. Exercise may help improve brain health among elderly people.
33. The new study is unique because ______
A. it analyzed the actual brains of the participants
B. the participants involved were over 70 years old
C. the participants had signs of dementia
D. the participants were equipped with a special activity monitor
34. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the study
A. The study looks into why young people develop Alzheimer’s disease.
B. The study indicates that people with signs of Alzheimer’s disease will lose cognition.
C. The study finds out why some people with signs of Alzheimer’s disease have the abnormal cognitive ability.
D. The study shows higher levels of daily movement were linked to better thinking and memory skills.
35. Dr. Buchman would most probably agree that ______
A. Alzheimer’s disease can be totally cured by doing exercise
B. only intense exercise is beneficial to our health
C. doing exercise can help reduce the risk of cognitive decline
D. people with Alzheimer’s disease cannot control their brain health

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
To snack or not to snack That is the question for doctors and for you, as you try to decide what to do about your hungry stomach when it’s nowhere close to mealtime.
The short answer is: 36 .
Weight loss
37 Yes. A smart snack can prevent the kind of unhealthy over-eating that comes from extreme hunger. “Your body is always talking to you- you just have to listen,” said medicine specialist Robert Graham. “So if you’re starting to feel a bit hungry, don’t wait.” But you can’t grab any old snack. Chips and cookies boost your blood sugar quickly, which leads to the sugar crash. Instead, try nuts and fruits.
38
Snacking is a way to add a variety of nutrients（营养） to your diet. Maya Feller, a registered dietitian nutritionist, says you can’t go wrong with a handful of mixed nuts, which can help your heart. Snacking on protein - rich foods helps preserve your muscle mass and stamina（耐力）. The body can absorb only a limited amount of protein per meal, so distributing protein throughout the day via snacking can maximize protein intake.
Mood and mental health
If you’ve ever been unhappy with someone when you were hungry, you know that food can influence your mood. 39 . Some studies have shown that healthy snacking may also improve memory and cognitive（认知的） performance and help with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. If you wait too long to eat between meals, your body thinks it’s starving and releases the stress hormone to remind you, which can produce negative moods. In addition to drinking water, snacking on fresh fruits can help your brain.
The bottom line
There are different ways to go about（处理） this whole snacking things. Choose a healthy, filling option in an appropriate size, and the benefits don’t stop at weight loss and improved health; your general approach to life might be affected. 40
A. Can snacking help you drop a few pounds
B. a word of caution
C. Snacking helps you avoid that position, resulting in fewer mood swings and better focus
D. have the snack
E. When you snack mindfully, it’s easier to take a deep breath, focus on exactly what you’re eating at that moment, and enjoy the day around you too
F. Overall health
G. If you must have a snack at night, try cottage cheese

The literature teacher entered the classroom and, with a smile on his face, said, “Hello, fellows!” Then he placed his notebook and books on his desk before stepping to the blackboard and picking up the chalk. Then he wrote down: “Who do I want to be ”
While reading the question, all of a sudden, I remembered what my grandmother said. Every time she scolded me, she would ask, “When are you going to become a person ” When I told my friend Firoz about these words, he burst into laughter.
Remembering my grandmother’s question and anger, I quickly covered my lips with my hand to hide my smile from the teacher’s eyes. But to be honest, I really had a dream deep in my heart. I wanted to explore outer space.
Our literature teacher had already announced that we would write an essay on an open topic. He wrote the topic on the board and took his place.
Most of my classmates had their heads bent over their blank papers. Some raised their heads and stared at the white ceiling, others scratched at the back of their notebooks. Baba Morad was biting his lips thought fully. Firoz was looking around. Part of my mind was busy searching for an essay topic, while the other was wondering whether dreams and wishes for the future are the same things.
My eyes wandered outside through the large glass window and stared at the sky where a bird was flying. I gathered my thoughts and began to write my essay, filling up the back and front of three white sheets.
Once again, I read my writing from the beginning to the end and was satisfied with the way I created it and the greatness of my desire. I looked around at my classmates, some of whom had finished their work, and some were writing, and then I looked outside.
The teacher, who had a long, dry stick in his hand to beat us sometimes, was walking around in the classroom. At the same time, walking under the watchful eye he would collect the essays of those who had finished writing .

Text 10（第20题为总结题）
I woke up one Thursday feeling ill. （17） My head ached, and I felt really tired, despite going to bed early. Because I also had a fever, my mom said I should stay at home.
I was worried about missing school because I had an important science test that day. （17） If it had been for math or English, I could have taken the test online,
but I needed to be in the lab. Dad called my school and explained the situation, and, thankfully, my teacher said I could take the exam when I felt better. （18）
By lunchtime, I had developed a cough, so I should have a coronavirus（冠状病毒） test at the local test center. It was unpleasant, but not too bad.
I got the result the next day... negative, thankfully! But it was still a very bad cold. I was in bed for five days and didn’t return to school until the following Wednesday. （19） Thankfully, I passed my science test!

Bob and Eliza Shaw started taking pictures of their son, Noah, practically from the moment he was born. When he was about three months old, Eliza noticed something strange when she took his picture. The flash on their digital camera created the typical red do t in the center of Noah’s left eye, but the right eye had a white spot at the center, almost as if the flash was being reflected back at the camera by something. When Eliza mentioned the strange phenomenon to their ophthalmologist（眼科医生）, she shined a light into Noah’s eye and saw the same white reflection instead of a red one, which is a sign of retinal（视网膜的） cancer, and that is exactly what Noah had. He endured months of treatment, but doctors could not save his eye.
Noah’s disease would be treatable if diagnosed（诊断） early. Bob couldn’t help but wonder whether there were signs he’d missed. He went back over every baby picture of Noah he could find — thousands of them — and discovered the first white spot in a photo taken when Noah was 12 days old. As time went on, it appeared more frequently.
It was too late for Noah’s eye, but Bob was determined to put his hard-won insights to good use. He created a database that charted the cancer’s appearance in every photo. He also collected photos and data from eight other children with retinal cancer. Armed with those data, he began to work with colleagues in the computer science department to develop a smart phone App that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for the white eye spot and can be used as a kind of ophthalmoscope（眼底镜）. Called White Eye Detector, it is now available for free. “I just kept telling myself, I really need to do this,” Bob told People. “This disease is tough to detect. Not only can this software save vision, but it can save lives.”
24. How did Eliza find Noah with retinal cancer
A. She took Noah to have a regular health check.
B. She found something strange with their ophthalmologist.
C. She noticed the colors of reflections were different in Noah’s eyes.
D. She noticed a white reflection in the center of Noah’s left eye.
25. Why did Bob go over every baby picture of Noah
A. Because he wanted to figure out what signs he had missed.
B. Because he tried to find some methods to cure his son.
C. Because he could recall the past through these pictures.
D. Because he decided to put this experience to good use.
26. What does the underlined word “detect” mean in the last paragraph
A. treat B. spot C. cure D. feel
27. Which of the following words can best describe Bob
A. Loyal and helpful. B. Persistent and selfless.
C. Diligent and smart. D. Responsible and independent,
C
For any spaceman hoping to survive on the surface of the moon, growing crops will be important. Now, scientists have taken “one small step” towards growing plants on the lunar surface, after showing it’s possible to grow thale cress, a small flowering plant, in the lunar soil.
The findings raise hopes that plants could be grown on the moon during future space missions（任务）, and even enable mankind to set up a lunar settlement. “For future, longer space missions, we may use the moon as a launching platform（平台）,” explained Professor Rob Ferl. “It makes sense that we would want to use the soil that’s already there to grow plants.” Until now, scientists have not grown plants in the soil. “So, what happens when you grow plants in the lunar soil What would plants do in a lunar greenhouse Could we have lunar farmers ” Professor Ferl questioned.
To answer these questions, researchers from Florida set out to plant thale cress seeds in the lunar soil, add water, nutrients and light, and see what happened. The researchers chose to use thale cress because its genetic code （基因序列） has already been fully mapped. For comparison, the researchers also planted seeds in a range of soils, including those that are similar to the Martian soil. To their delight, the researchers found that nearly all of the seeds grew. However, they did observe differences between the plants grown in the lunar soil and those grown in the control soils. Some of the plants grown in the lunar soil were smaller, while others grew more slowly or were more varied in size.
Growing plants in the lunar soil may also change the moon itself, according to Dr. Stephen Elardo. “The moon is a very, very dry place,” he said. How will minerals in the lunar soil respond to having a plant grown in them, with the added water and nutrients Will adding water make the minerals friendlier to plants The researchers hope to answer these questions in follow-up studies.
28. What’s the second paragraph mainly about
A. The plants grown in the lunar soil.
B. The significance of the findings.
C. The missions of future space exploration.
D. The hope for setting up a lunar settlement.
29. Why did researchers use thale cress in the experiment
A. Its genes are suitable for the lunar soil.
B. People have a good knowledge of its genes.
C. It has been tested with the lunar soil before.
D. It has a long evolutionary history.
30. What did researchers find about the plants grown in the lunar soil
A. They absorbed few minerals.
B. They grew slowly in the dark.
C. They didn’t grow well enough.
D. They needed more water to grow bigger.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Preparing for Farming on the Moon
B. Conducting a Study on the Lunar Soil
C. Growing Plants in the Lunar Soil
D. Making the Lunar Soil Friendlier to Plants
D
We’ve all heard about techniques to get us more physically active — take the stairs and park the car a bit further from your destination. Now a study led by Dr. Buchman finds even simple housework may benefit brain health for the elderly.
“Our study shows exercise is an inexpensive way to improve health. It also shows exercise may have a protective effect on the brain,” says Dr. Buchman.
Previous research found just 45 minutes of walking three days a week actually increased brain volume.
The new study is unique. Dr. Buchman was able to analyze the actual brains of the study participants.
The study looked at 454 older adults who were over 70 years old when the research began. Of those adults, 191 had behavioral signs of dementia（痴呆） and 263 did not.
In the research, each participant wore an activity monitor called an accelerometer（加速度计）. It measured those participants’ physical activity around the clock — everything from walking around the house to exercise routines. Researchers collected and evaluated ten days of movement data for each participant and calculated the levels of daily movement.
The findings show that higher levels of daily movement were linked to better thinking and memory skills. And when Dr. Buchman analyzed brain tissue under a microscope, this finding turned out to be the case even for individuals with at least three signs of Alzheimer’s disease（阿尔茨海默病）. Even though these individuals might have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, 30 percent of them had“normal”cognition（认知）, says Dr. Buchman.
Why one person shows signs of dementia and another, who has similar degenerative（退行的） changes in the brain, does not, is a mystery. But Dr. Buchman says the new findings suggest that physical activity may be protective, even among developing Alzheimer’s. It sort of masks the symptoms, he says. It suggests that you can have some control over your brain health even if you don’t have control over developing Alzheimer’s.
And, while intense exercise is highly beneficial, light activity can make a difference as well. “As long as you are doing exercise and you’re moving, whether you’re chopping onions or sweeping the floor, you can reduce your risk of cognitive decline,” says Dr. Buchman.
32. What does the new study led by Dr. Buchman find out
A. Simple housework is a good way to get us more physically active.
B. Walking for 45 minutes twice a week can increase brain volume.
C. Exercise is the most expensive way to improve our mental and physical health.
D. Exercise may help improve brain health among elderly people.
33. The new study is unique because ______
A. it analyzed the actual brains of the participants
B. the participants involved were over 70 years old
C. the participants had signs of dementia
D. the participants were equipped with a special activity monitor
34. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the study
A. The study looks into why young people develop Alzheimer’s disease.
B. The study indicates that people with signs of Alzheimer’s disease will lose cognition.
C. The study finds out why some people with signs of Alzheimer’s disease have the abnormal cognitive ability.
D. The study shows higher levels of daily movement were linked to better thinking and memory skills.
35. Dr. Buchman would most probably agree that ______
A. Alzheimer’s disease can be totally cured by doing exercise
B. only intense exercise is beneficial to our health
C. doing exercise can help reduce the risk of cognitive decline
D. people with Alzheimer’s disease cannot control their brain health

To snack or not to snack That is the question for doctors and for you, as you try to decide what to do about your hungry stomach when it’s nowhere close to mealtime.
The short answer is: 36 .
Weight loss
37 Yes. A smart snack can prevent the kind of unhealthy over-eating that comes from extreme hunger. “Your body is always talking to you- you just have to listen,” said medicine specialist Robert Graham. “So if you’re starting to feel a bit hungry, don’t wait.” But you can’t grab any old snack. Chips and cookies boost your blood sugar quickly, which leads to the sugar crash. Instead, try nuts and fruits.
38
Snacking is a way to add a variety of nutrients（营养） to your diet. Maya Feller, a registered dietitian nutritionist, says you can’t go wrong with a handful of mixed nuts, which can help your heart. Snacking on protein - rich foods helps preserve your muscle mass and stamina（耐力）. The body can absorb only a limited amount of protein per meal, so distributing protein throughout the day via snacking can maximize protein intake.
Mood and mental health
If you’ve ever been unhappy with someone when you were hungry, you know that food can influence your mood. 39 . Some studies have shown that healthy snacking may also improve memory and cognitive（认知的） performance and help with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. If you wait too long to eat between meals, your body thinks it’s starving and releases the stress hormone to remind you, which can produce negative moods. In addition to drinking water, snacking on fresh fruits can help your brain.
The bottom line
There are different ways to go about（处理） this whole snacking things. Choose a healthy, filling option in an appropriate size, and the benefits don’t stop at weight loss and improved health; your general approach to life might be affected. 40
A. Can snacking help you drop a few pounds
B. a word of caution
C. Snacking helps you avoid that position, resulting in fewer mood swings and better focus
D. have the snack
E. When you snack mindfully, it’s easier to take a deep breath, focus on exactly what you’re eating at that moment, and enjoy the day around you too
F. Overall health
G. If you must have a snack at night, try cottage cheese

The literature teacher entered the classroom and, with a smile on his face, said, “Hello, fellows!” Then he placed his notebook and books on his desk before stepping to the blackboard and picking up the chalk. Then he wrote down: “Who do I want to be ”
While reading the question, all of a sudden, I remembered what my grandmother said. Every time she scolded me, she would ask, “When are you going to become a person ” When I told my friend Firoz about these words, he burst into laughter.
Remembering my grandmother’s question and anger, I quickly covered my lips with my hand to hide my smile from the teacher’s eyes. But to be honest, I really had a dream deep in my heart. I wanted to explore outer space.
Our literature teacher had already announced that we would write an essay on an open topic. He wrote the topic on the board and took his place.
Most of my classmates had their heads bent over their blank papers. Some raised their heads and stared at the white ceiling, others scratched at the back of their notebooks. Baba Morad was biting his lips thought fully. Firoz was looking around. Part of my mind was busy searching for an essay topic, while the other was wondering whether dreams and wishes for the future are the same things.
My eyes wandered outside through the large glass window and stared at the sky where a bird was flying. I gathered my thoughts and began to write my essay, filling up the back and front of three white sheets.
Once again, I read my writing from the beginning to the end and was satisfied with the way I created it and the greatness of my desire. I looked around at my classmates, some of whom had finished their work, and some were writing, and then I looked outside.
The teacher, who had a long, dry stick in his hand to beat us sometimes, was walking around in the classroom. At the same time, walking under the watchful eye he would collect the essays of those who had finished writing .

Text 10（第20题为总结题）
I woke up one Thursday feeling ill. （17） My head ached, and I felt really tired, despite going to bed early. Because I also had a fever, my mom said I should stay at home.
I was worried about missing school because I had an important science test that day. （17） If it had been for math or English, I could have taken the test online,
but I needed to be in the lab. Dad called my school and explained the situation, and, thankfully, my teacher said I could take the exam when I felt better. （18）
By lunchtime, I had developed a cough, so I should have a coronavirus（冠状病毒） test at the local test center. It was unpleasant, but not too bad.
I got the result the next day... negative, thankfully! But it was still a very bad cold. I was in bed for five days and didn’t return to school until the following Wednesday. （19） Thankfully, I passed my science test!
