Revolutionary Glasses Make It Safe to Drive at Night
Did you know that more than 40 percent of all deadly car accidents occur at night A recent breakthrough eyeglass technology has made it safe to drive at night. It’s almost like having “X-ray” vision (视力) while driving.
Spend money on your safety and peace of mind behind the wheel with a pair of these cutting-edge night driving glasses. The amount of car accidents that occur at night is mostly the result of poor visibility. Even with 60% less traffic on the road at night, accidents still happen due to blinding light and just overall bad driving visibility.
Imagine being able to clearly see what’s in front of you and what’s approaching, even if it’s very dark and foggy. Once you start wearing ClearView night glasses, you’ll feel much more con dent and safe driving when it’s getting dark. With ClearView you will notice an instant reduction in strong light from oncoming traffic and bright street lights.
This is because the special yellow lens tint (镜片色彩) can block strong blue light, and increase contrast (对比). ClearView passes the global traffic light standard for safer sharper vision at night with ying colors.
You can start using ClearView immediately even if you wear glasses. Simply place ClearView on top of your glasses and be amazed by the difference this technology makes!
Is it worth it Absolutely! Keep a pair in each of your cars to make sure you have your glasses at hand when night comes. If you care about your family’s safety then this is a no-brainer.
1. According to the text, the main cause of unsafe driving at night is________.
A. heavy traffic B. low visibility C. poor eyesight D. bad driving
2. How does ClearView make it safe to drive at night
A. It cures night blindness.
B. It passes the national standard.
C. It provides “X-ray” vision for drivers.
D. It reduces the brightness of strong light.
3. What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To inform. B. To explain. C. To promote. D. To entertain.
B
About a decade ago, Lawson was at a beach in Virginia watching his kids build castles right next to the waves.
“I kept trying to get them to come back because I thought it was a terrible idea,” he remarked. He wanted them to build their sandcastles closer to the dunes. But they found it more exciting to build right where the waves hit, seeing their sandcastles get destroyed, and then rebuilding them with whatever debris washed up from the ocean. “It seemed so symbolic, somehow, of how life works more than just building your perfect sandcastles,” said Lawson. When he decided to turn that sunny day into a children’s book, the idea came to just use pictures. “It seemed like it would work beautifully without words,” he said.
A Day for Sandcastles is illustrated by Qin Leng. It’s the second wordless picture book for Lawson and Leng since 2021’s Over the Shop. Leng’s illustrations stay pretty true to real life. Three siblings spend the day building sandcastles and watching them get destroyed by a flying hat. “To me it’s a celebration of childhood and the simple joys of life. These are the things I like to capture” said Leng.
Leng spent part of her childhood in France, and she was inspired by European comic books. “What I love to do when I illustrate a picture book is add side stories to the main storyline. I always think about the readers and the longevity of the book, and I want them to be able to discover something new every time they revisit the book,” Leng explained.
At the end of the day, the sleepy-eyed kids pile into the bus that will take them home. “Those last pages are some of my favorite. They capture that feeling like at the end of the day on the beach, when it’s getting dark and you feel completely exhausted,” Lawson said. It must be a universal childhood feeling: happy with sand, sticky from the salt, hot from the sun, and ready to fall asleep the moment you get into the car.
4. Why does Lawson mention the scene where the kids built sandcastles
A. To suggest a way to enjoy leisure. B. To remind readers of the childhood.
C. To convince us of how life works. D. To tell us the inspiration for his book.
5. What do you know about the two books mentioned
A. They are purchased by kids universally. B. Readers can only find pictures in them.
C. They carry no elements of comic books. D. The stories are literally works of fantasy.
6. How does Lawson feel when telling us the last pages in the last paragraph
A. Relieved. B. Pleased. C. Disturbed. D. Exhausted.
7. What can be a suitable title for the passage
A. Childhood in sandcastles B. Beautiful childhood memories
C. Popular illustrated books D. Explore the mystery of nature
C
In June a massive “heat dome” baked the famously temperate Pacific Northwest, subjecting parts of Washington State, Oregon and western Canada to extreme temperatures. It is virtually impossible that heat waves like this would have occurred without climate change. Scientists estimate it was a one-in-1,000-year event. “And that’s an ‘at least,’ ” says Kristie. L. Ebi. “It could be more rare than that.” If warming reaches two degrees Cabove preindustrial levels — the threshold (阈值) that most national governments have agreed to try to avoid in hopes of reducing climate change impacts, “that event could occur every five to 10 years,” Ebi says.
“In an average year in the U.S., heat kills more people than any other type of extreme weather,” says Kristina Dahl, a climate scientist. Hundreds of people died in the recent Pacific Northwest heat wave, according to estimates: there were at least 486 deaths in British Columbia, 116 in Oregon and 78 in Washington. A recent U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report found there were more than 3,500 emergency department visits for heat-related illness this past May and June in a region that includes Oregon and Washington State.
The human body functions best at 98.6 degrees F (37 degrees C). The body has mechanisms to rid itself of excess heat, most notably sweating. But at a certain point, that fails to work, causing loss of consciousness. People can eventually acclimatize to some level of heat. If you live in a hot climate or work in hot conditions for a period of weeks or months, your body becomes more efficient at sweating and cooling itself down. This process takes time, however.
As the planet warms, heat waves like these this year are becoming frighteningly common and catching climate scientists off guard. “Even a lot of our climate models that project out how frequent extreme heat will be in the future wouldn’t have necessarily predicted this level of heat for that part of the country,” Kristina Dahl says. “But then to realize that I am seeing it in my lifetime, and living it right now, is really terrifying.”
8. What does Ebi’s saying imply in Paragraph 1
A. Heat dome has affected at least three regions.
B. Temperature reaches the threshold immediately.
C. Heat waves affect the Pacific Northwest greatly.
D. Severe weather could become frighteningly common.
9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. Many areas are badly affected by heat waves.
B. Heat waves pose a major risk to public health.
C. More people died of illnesses in this summer.
D. Latest news on heat waves are widely reported.
10. What does the underlined word “acclimatize” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Adapt. B. Settle. C. Respond. D. Object.
11. According to Kristina Dahl, the extreme heat ________.
A. ruins his normal daily life.
B. gets scientists prepared to it.
C. fails to be accurately forecast.
D. should be examined frequently.
D
Scientists have discovered a new way of administering oxygen to the blood which could allow people to stay alive without breathing. The procedure, which works by injecting oxygen molecules enclosed in fatty molecules directly into the bloodstream, could extend an extra 30 minutes of life when they cannot breathe.
John Kheir, a doctor of the Boston Children’s Hospital, was inspired to begin his groundbreaking research after he experienced a patient’s tragic death, according to Science Daily. He was operating on a young girl whose pneumonia led to deadly brain damage after doctors were unable to place her on a breathing machine in time to save her.
In response, Dr Kheir started working on the idea of inserting oxygen directly into the blood. Early experiments showed that the intervention could in theory be very successful, he said, “We drew each other’s blood, mixed it in a test. tube with the microparticles, and watched blue blood turn immediately red, right before our eyes.” However, injecting pure oxygen into the bloodstream in gas form failed miserably when it was attempted 100 years ago, as it formed dangerous bubbles in the veins.
Much of Dr Kheir’s research therefore involved finding a substance which could surround the oxygen and allow it to be suspended in a liquid for injection into the body. He found that using fatty molecules was the best way to keep oxygen after using sound waves to trap the two substances together into small particles that can only be seen with the help of a. microscope. The particles were then made up into a liquid which is very heavily oxygenated—carrying “three to four times the oxygen content of our own red blood cells”, according to Dr Kheir.
When used on humans, the oxygen could probably last for up to 30 minutes, though injecting it for any longer could damage the patient’s blood. “This is a short-term oxygen substitute—a way to safely inject oxygen gas to support patients during a critical few minutes,” Dr Kheir said. He added that he thought the technique could become routine for doctors dealing with emergency situations.
12. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. John Kheir made a mistake in an operation.
B. An incident enlightened John Kheir’s research.
C. John Kheir failed to inject oxygen to a girl’s blood.
D. A young patient died tragically in John Kheir’s research.
13. What problem may lead to the failure of previous trials
A. The blue blood can turn red only in theory.
B. The microparticles fail to mix with oxygen.
C. Administering oxygen to the blood is difficult.
D. Oxygen gas inserted may cause more serious problems.
14. How did Dr Kheir solve the problem to successfully inject oxygen to the blood
A. To surround oxygen molecules with fat. B. To use sound waves to turn gas into liquid.
C. To involve more oxygen into red blood cells. D. To find a liquid with the aid of a microscope.
15. What is Dr Kheir’s attitude towards the new way
A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Subjective. D. Hopeful.

How to Create the Perfect Spring Planter
Spring containers are an easy solution for jazzing up a colorless balcony and boring corners of any garden at this time of year. ______16______
Choosing the right container is important. Always think about the style of your garden. ______17______ They are solid pots for spring as they don’t blow over in those early spring winds. Check that the pot has a large drainage (排水) hole to ensure that the soil drains well, but always cover it with a crock (like a piece from a broken ower planter) so that the soil doesn’t block the hole and create problems with drainage later down the line.
Choosing the right compost (堆肥) is the key to the success of any planting. I think it’s best to use soil-based compost so that the soil does not become too heavy or waterlogged, especially in spring when we could have plenty of showers. ______18______ And too much water in the soil will freeze, preventing the plants from taking up the vital water.
Plant combinations are important, so always think about mixes which will last as well as annual and perennial (多年生的) ones. ______19______ A bunch of pots forces the eye to look around and take in each pot and plant combination. A nice option is planting summer owers like Dahlia or Lily to create a summer impact.
_____20_____ It can be achieved by using tall plants. If you don’t have a tall plant then you can always raise your pot off the ground with old house bricks or decorative pot feet, or use steps in your garden to create interest and drama.
A pleasant smell is always a lovely addition to a space as well as wildlife. Select the right plant for your location in your garden－sun or shade-loving.
A. I like good, weighty planters.
B. It can still be frosty right up to May.
C. And besides, they are so easy to care for.
D. I also like to group pots together in different sizes.
E. Capitalize on those variations to help choose companions.
F. You may nd some of these plants in smaller pots or even multi-packs.
G. Height is important to think about when you’re designing your arrangement.

“Bang. . !” Sara pushed the door open. She threw her school bag onto the floor and called out, “I’m home!” No answer. The house was silent. It sounded empty, but she knew it wasn’t. Her mum and dad were working upstairs.
Sara got a glass of orange juice, went into the conservatory (玻璃房) and sat down in her favourite chair. The garden was still in the dark afternoon. On one side, her mum’s garden was neat and tidy with boring short grass, boring straight flowerbeds and boring straight paths. But on the other side, Sara’s Nature Garden looked wild and exciting with big dead sunflowers and tall grasses.
“Nobody is interested in me. Mum and dad only think about their work,” she thought sadly.
Then she recalled: One month earlier, she learned in a magazine that many dogs were abandoned because their owners got bored with them; One hour earlier, she saw a cute dog wagging its tail and licking her friend’s face.
Sara knew today was special. Today things were changing. She couldn’t wait any longer. It’s time to talk to her parents.
So Sara got up from her chair and climbed all the way to the loft (阁楼). “Mum, I want a talk.” said Sara. “Just a minute!” Her mum clicked on the keyboard, took off her glasses and turned to her daughter. Sara coughed, took a deep breath, and told her mum that she wanted a dog. “No, Sara. That’s impossible,” her mum said firmly. Sara went to her father but got the same answer. She rushed into her room angrily and slammed the door shut.
Later, Sara’s mum knocked at the door and went in. “Darling, we know this is important to you. You can have a dog if you take the responsibility. But look at your Nature Garden, your school bag, your bedroom! What a mess! Do you think you can take good care of a dog ” said her mum.

About a decade ago, Lawson was at a beach in Virginia watching his kids build castles right next to the waves.
“I kept trying to get them to come back because I thought it was a terrible idea,” he remarked. He wanted them to build their sandcastles closer to the dunes. But they found it more exciting to build right where the waves hit, seeing their sandcastles get destroyed, and then rebuilding them with whatever debris washed up from the ocean. “It seemed so symbolic, somehow, of how life works more than just building your perfect sandcastles,” said Lawson. When he decided to turn that sunny day into a children’s book, the idea came to just use pictures. “It seemed like it would work beautifully without words,” he said.
A Day for Sandcastles is illustrated by Qin Leng. It’s the second wordless picture book for Lawson and Leng since 2021’s Over the Shop. Leng’s illustrations stay pretty true to real life. Three siblings spend the day building sandcastles and watching them get destroyed by a flying hat. “To me it’s a celebration of childhood and the simple joys of life. These are the things I like to capture,” said Leng.
Leng spent part of her childhood in France, and she was inspired by European comic books. “What I love to do when I illustrate a picture book is add side stories to the main storyline. I always think about the readers and the longevity of the book, and I want them to be able to discover something new every time they revisit the book,” Leng explained.
At the end of the day, the sleepy-eyed kids pile into the bus that will take them home. “Those last pages are some of my favorite. They capture that feeling like at the end of the day on the beach, when it’s getting dark and you feel completely exhausted,” Lawson said. It must be a universal childhood feeling: happy with sand, sticky from the salt, hot from the sun, and ready to fall asleep the moment you get into the car.
4. Why does Lawson mention the scene where the kids built sandcastles
A. To suggest a way to enjoy leisure. B. To remind readers of the childhood.
C. To convince us of how life works. D. To tell us the inspiration for his book.
5. What do you know about the two books mentioned
A. They are purchased by kids universally. B. Readers can only find pictures in them.
C They carry no elements of comic books. D. The stories are literally works of fantasy.
6. How does Lawson feel when telling us the last pages in the last paragraph
A. Relieved. B. Pleased. C. Disturbed. D. Exhausted.
7. What can be a suitable title for the passage
A. Childhood in sandcastles B. Beautiful childhood memories
C. Popular illustrated books D. Explore the mystery of nature
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Lawson创作无字绘本《A Day for Sandcastles》的灵感来源，以及他和插画师冷琴对该绘本的评价。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“ But they found it more exciting to build right where the waves hit, seeing their sandcastles get destroyed, and then rebuilding them with whatever debris washed up from the ocean. “It seemed so symbolic, somehow, of how life works more than just building your perfect sandcastles,” said Lawson. When he decided to turn that sunny day into a children’s book, the idea came to just use pictures.(但他们发现在海浪袭来的地方建造更令人兴奋，看着他们的沙堡被摧毁，然后用从海洋冲上来的任何碎片重建它们。劳森说:“从某种程度上说，这似乎很有象征意义，说明生活不仅仅是建造完美的沙堡。”当他决定把那个阳光明媚的日子写成一本儿童读物时，他想到了只用图片。)”可推测出，孩子们建造沙煲的场景是他写书的灵感来源。故选D。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A Day for Sandcastles is illustrated by Qin Leng. It’s the second wordless picture book for Lawson and Leng since 2021’s Over the Shop. (《A Day for Sandcastles》由冷琴插图。这是自2021年的《Over the Shop》以来，Lawson和冷的第二本无字绘本。)”可知，这两本书都是无字绘本，读者只能在里面找到图片。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“‘Those last pages are some of my favorite. They capture that feeling like at the end of the day on the beach, when it’s getting dark and you feel completely exhausted,’ Lawson said. It must be a universal childhood feeling: happy with sand, sticky from the salt, hot from the sun, and ready to fall asleep the moment you get into the car.(Lawson说：‘最后几页是我最喜欢的。它们捕捉到了一天结束时在海滩上的感觉，天快黑了，你会感到筋疲力尽。’这一定是一种普遍的童年感觉：玩沙子玩得很开心，海水的盐让身体黏呼呼，太阳烤的人燥热，一上车就昏昏欲睡。)”可推测出，Lawson描述了孩子们玩了一天沙子后的场景，这是童年美好的回忆，他在讲述这最后几页的内容时内心是充满快乐的。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，第一、二段讲述了十年前带着孩子们在沙滩上建城堡的场景是Lawson创作书的灵感来源；第三、四、五段描写了插画师冷琴和Lawson对书的评价。全文围绕《A Day for Sandcastles》展开，这是一本描述孩子们在沙滩上建造城堡的无字绘本，再根据第三段中的“To me it’s a celebration of childhood and the simple joys of life.(对我来说，这是对童年和简单生活乐趣的庆祝。)”可知，A项“沙滩城堡里的童年”最适合作本文标题。故选A。
C
In June a massive “heat dome” baked the famously temperate Pacific Northwest, subjecting parts of Washington State, Oregon and western Canada to extreme temperatures. It is virtually impossible that heat waves like this would have occurred without climate change. Scientists estimate it was a one-in-1,000-year event. “And that’s an ‘at least,’ ” says Kristie. L. Ebi. “It could be more rare than that.” If warming reaches two degrees Cabove preindustrial levels — the threshold (阈值) that most national governments have agreed to try to avoid in hopes of reducing climate change impacts, “that event could occur every five to 10 years,” Ebi says.
“In an average year in the U.S., heat kills more people than any other type of extreme weather,” says Kristina Dahl, a climate scientist. Hundreds of people died in the recent Pacific Northwest heat wave, according to estimates: there were at least 486 deaths in British Columbia, 116 in Oregon and 78 in Washington. A recent U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report found there were more than 3,500 emergency department visits for heat-related illness this past May and June in a region that includes Oregon and Washington State.
The human body functions best at 98.6 degrees F (37 degrees C). The body has mechanisms to rid itself of excess heat, most notably sweating. But at a certain point, that fails to work, causing loss of consciousness. People can eventually acclimatize to some level of heat. If you live in a hot climate or work in hot conditions for a period of weeks or months, your body becomes more efficient at sweating and cooling itself down. This process takes time, however.
As the planet warms, heat waves like these this year are becoming frighteningly common and catching climate scientists off guard. “Even a lot of our climate models that project out how frequent extreme heat will be in the future wouldn’t have necessarily predicted this level of heat for that part of the country,” Kristina Dahl says. “But then to realize that I am seeing it in my lifetime, and living it right now, is really terrifying.”
8. What does Ebi’s saying imply in Paragraph 1
A. Heat dome has affected at least three regions.
B. Temperature reaches the threshold immediately.
C. Heat waves affect the Pacific Northwest greatly.
D. Severe weather could become frighteningly common.
9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. Many areas are badly affected by heat waves.
B. Heat waves pose a major risk to public health.
C. More people died of illnesses in this summer.
D. Latest news on heat waves are widely reported.
10. What does the underlined word “acclimatize” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Adapt. B. Settle. C. Respond. D. Object.
11. According to Kristina Dahl, the extreme heat ________.
A. ruins his normal daily life.
B. gets scientists prepared to it.
C. fails to be accurately forecast.
D. should be examined frequently.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要报道了气候变化导致了致命的极端高温，出乎科学家意料，威胁公众健康。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“If warming reaches two degrees Cabove preindustrial levels — the threshold (阈值) that most national governments have agreed to try to avoid in hopes of reducing climate change impacts, “that event could occur every five to 10 years,” Ebi says.(Ebi说，如果变暖达到工业化前的2摄氏度——大多数国家政府都同意尽量避免这一阈值，以期减少气候变化的影响，“这一事件可能每5到10年发生一次。”)”可知，由Ebi的话可推知，这种恶劣的天气可能每5到10年发生一次，会变得非常普遍。故选D。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段““In an average year in the U.S., heat kills more people than any other type of extreme weather,” says Kristina Dahl, a climate scientist. Hundreds of people died in the recent Pacific Northwest heat wave, according to estimates: there were at least 486 deaths in British Columbia, 116 in Oregon and 78 in Washington. A recent U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report found there were more than 3,500 emergency department visits for heat-related illness this past May and June in a region that includes Oregon and Washington State.(气候科学家Kristina Dahl说：“在美国，平均每年，高温导致的死亡人数比任何其他类型的极端天气都多。”。据估计，最近太平洋西北部的热浪导致数百人死亡：不列颠哥伦比亚省至少有486人死亡，俄勒冈州116人死亡，华盛顿州78人死亡。美国疾病控制和预防中心最近的一份报告发现，今年5月和6月，包括俄勒冈州和华盛顿州在内的一个地区有3500多人因高温相关疾病前往急诊科就诊)”可知，本段主要介绍了高温天气导致人们死亡，对公众健康造成重大威胁。故选B。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“People can eventually acclimatize to some level of heat. If you live in a hot climate or work in hot conditions for a period of weeks or months, your body becomes more efficient at sweating and cooling itself down.(人们最终可以acclimatize一定程度的高温。如果你在炎热的气候中生活或在炎热的条件下工作数周或数月，你的身体会更有效地出汗和降温)”可知，工作一段时间后，人们的身体可以更有效地出汗和降温，即人们最终可以适应一定程度的高温，划线单词表示“适应”，与adapt意义相近。故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段““Even a lot of our climate models that project out how frequent extreme heat will be in the future wouldn’t have necessarily predicted this level of heat for that part of the country,” Kristina Dahl says.(Kristina Dahl说：“即使我们的许多气候模型预测了未来极端高温的频率，也不一定能预测出该地区的高温水平。”)”可知，根据Kristina Dahl的说法，极端高温还不能准确预测。故选C。
D
Scientists have discovered a new way of administering oxygen to the blood which could allow people to stay alive without breathing. The procedure, which works by injecting oxygen molecules enclosed in fatty molecules directly into the bloodstream, could extend an extra 30 minutes of life when they cannot breathe.
John Kheir, a doctor of the Boston Children’s Hospital, was inspired to begin his groundbreaking research after he experienced a patient’s tragic death, according to Science Daily. He was operating on a young girl whose pneumonia led to deadly brain damage after doctors were unable to place her on a breathing machine in time to save her.
In response, Dr Kheir started working on the idea of inserting oxygen directly into the blood. Early experiments showed that the intervention could in theory be very successful, he said, “We drew each other’s blood, mixed it in a test. tube with the microparticles, and watched blue blood turn immediately red, right before our eyes.” However, injecting pure oxygen into the bloodstream in gas form failed miserably when it was attempted 100 years ago, as it formed dangerous bubbles in the veins.
Much of Dr Kheir’s research therefore involved finding a substance which could surround the oxygen and allow it to be suspended in a liquid for injection into the body. He found that using fatty molecules was the best way to keep oxygen after using sound waves to trap the two substances together into small particles that can only be seen with the help of a. microscope. The particles were then made up into a liquid which is very heavily oxygenated—carrying “three to four times the oxygen content of our own red blood cells”, according to Dr Kheir.
When used on humans, the oxygen could probably last for up to 30 minutes, though injecting it for any longer could damage the patient’s blood. “This is a short-term oxygen substitute—a way to safely inject oxygen gas to support patients during a critical few minutes,” Dr Kheir said. He added that he thought the technique could become routine for doctors dealing with emergency situations.
12. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. John Kheir made a mistake in an operation.
B. An incident enlightened John Kheir’s research.
C. John Kheir failed to inject oxygen to a girl’s blood.
D. A young patient died tragically in John Kheir’s research.
13. What problem may lead to the failure of previous trials
A. The blue blood can turn red only in theory.
B. The microparticles fail to mix with oxygen.
C. Administering oxygen to the blood is difficult.
D. Oxygen gas inserted may cause more serious problems.
14. How did Dr Kheir solve the problem to successfully inject oxygen to the blood
A. To surround oxygen molecules with fat. B. To use sound waves to turn gas into liquid.
C. To involve more oxygen into red blood cells. D. To find a liquid with the aid of a microscope.
15. What is Dr Kheir’s attitude towards the new way
A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Subjective. D. Hopeful.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】

【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“John Kheir, a doctor of the Boston Children’s Hospital, was inspired to begin his groundbreaking research after he experienced a patient’s tragic death, according to Science Daily. He was operating on a young girl whose pneumonia led to deadly brain damage after doctors were unable to place her on a breathing machine in time to save her.(据《每日科学》报道，波士顿儿童医院的医生约翰·凯尔在经历了一位病人的悲惨死亡后，受到启发，开始了他开创性的研究。他当时正在给一名患有肺炎的小女孩做手术，这名女孩的脑部受到了致命的损伤，因为医生没能及时将她放在呼吸机上)”可知，第二段的主要内容是一件事启发了John Kheir的研究。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“However, injecting pure oxygen into the bloodstream in gas form failed miserably when it was attempted 100 years ago, as it formed dangerous bubbles in the veins.(然而，100年前，将纯氧以气体形式注入血液的尝试失败了，因为它在静脉中形成了危险的气泡)”可知，注入的氧气可能会导致更严重的问题可能导致之前的试验失败。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Much of Dr Kheir’s research therefore involved finding a substance which could surround the oxygen and allow it to be suspended in a liquid for injection into the body. He found that using fatty molecules was the best way to keep oxygen after using sound waves to trap the two substances together into small particles that can only be seen with the help of a. microscope. The particles were then made up into a liquid which is very heavily oxygenated—carrying “three to four times the oxygen content of our own red blood cells”, according to Dr Kheir.(因此，凯尔医生的大部分研究都涉及到寻找一种物质，这种物质可以包围氧气，并使其悬浮在液体中，以便注射到体内。他发现，使用脂肪分子是保存氧气的最好方法，之前他使用声波将两种物质困在一起，形成只有借助显微镜才能看到的小颗粒。然后，这些颗粒被制成一种含氧量很高的液体，据凯尔医生说，这种液体携带的氧含量是人体红细胞的三到四倍)”可知，通过用脂肪包围氧分子解决向血液中成功注入氧气的问题。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““This is a short-term oxygen substitute—a way to safely inject oxygen gas to support patients during a critical few minutes,” Dr Kheir said.

How to Create the Perfect Spring Planter
Spring containers are an easy solution for jazzing up a colorless balcony and boring corners of any garden at this time of year. ______16______
Choosing the right container is important. Always think about the style of your garden. ______17______ They are solid pots for spring as they don’t blow over in those early spring winds. Check that the pot has a large drainage (排水) hole to ensure that the soil drains well, but always cover it with a crock (like a piece from a broken ower planter) so that the soil doesn’t block the hole and create problems with drainage later down the line.
Choosing the right compost (堆肥) is the key to the success of any planting. I think it’s best to use soil-based compost so that the soil does not become too heavy or waterlogged, especially in spring when we could have plenty of showers. ______18______ And too much water in the soil will freeze, preventing the plants from taking up the vital water.
Plant combinations are important, so always think about mixes which will last as well as annual and perennial (多年生的) ones. ______19______ A bunch of pots forces the eye to look around and take in each pot and plant combination. A nice option is planting summer owers like Dahlia or Lily to create a summer impact.
_____20_____ It can be achieved by using tall plants. If you don’t have a tall plant then you can always raise your pot off the ground with old house bricks or decorative pot feet, or use steps in your garden to create interest and drama.
A pleasant smell is always a lovely addition to a space as well as wildlife. Select the right plant for your location in your garden－sun or shade-loving.
A. I like good, weighty planters.
B. It can still be frosty right up to May.
C. And besides, they are so easy to care for.
D. I also like to group pots together in different sizes.
E. Capitalize on those variations to help choose companions.
F. You may nd some of these plants in smaller pots or even multi-packs.
G. Height is important to think about when you’re designing your arrangement.

Sara got a glass of orange juice, went into the conservatory (玻璃房) and sat down in her favourite chair. The garden was still in the dark afternoon. On one side, her mum’s garden was neat and tidy with boring short grass, boring straight flowerbeds and boring straight paths. But on the other side, Sara’s Nature Garden looked wild and exciting with big dead sunflowers and tall grasses.
“Nobody is interested in me. Mum and dad only think about their work,” she thought sadly.
Then she recalled: One month earlier, she learned in a magazine that many dogs were abandoned because their owners got bored with them; One hour earlier, she saw a cute dog wagging its tail and licking her friend’s face.
Sara knew today was special. Today things were changing. She couldn’t wait any longer. It’s time to talk to her parents.
So Sara got up from her chair and climbed all the way to the loft (阁楼). “Mum, I want a talk.” said Sara. “Just a minute!” Her mum clicked on the keyboard, took off her glasses and turned to her daughter. Sara coughed, took a deep breath, and told her mum that she wanted a dog. “No, Sara. That’s impossible,” her mum said firmly. Sara went to her father but got the same answer. She rushed into her room angrily and slammed the door shut.
Later, Sara’s mum knocked at the door and went in. “Darling, we know this is important to you. You can have a dog if you take the responsibility. But look at your Nature Garden, your school bag, your bedroom! What a mess! Do you think you can take good care of a dog ” said her mum.
