Wang Zhenyi, a world-leading scientist who has made significant contributions to the field of leukemia (白血病) treatment, has been honored with China’s highest award, the Medal of the Republic. President Xi Jinping signed the order for this highly respected recognition, which Wang shares with three other distinguished individuals.
In 1986, Wang made a significant achievement by successfully transforming cancer cells in leukemia patients into normal ones during clinical practice. This innovative treatment has remarkably improved the survival rate of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a particularly deadly form of blood cancer. Wang’s method has been used in many other countries and regions, including Europe, Japan, the United States, Italy, Australia and Cuba.
Wang, now 99 years old and a professor at Shanghai Ruijin Hospital, as well as an academician with the Chinese Academy of Engineering, has devoted his entire career to patient care. He saw patients suffering from leukemia, especially APL, which took their lives within half a year in 90 percent of cases. This experience inspired Wang to make defeating leukemia his life’s mission. His research began in 1979, and by 1986, he had discovered a medicine called all trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) to treat APL patients.
He provided this treatment to a critically ill five-year-old girl, and after a week, her condition improved significantly. Within a month, she was completely cured. This was widely recognized as the world’s first case that brought the theory of leukemia cell differentiation into practical use. Moreover, the woman is still alive and healthy today.
Wang and his team treated a total of 24 patients in that manner within a year, and all of them experienced full recovery. The results were later published in a paper, which immediately caused a sensation around the world. Later, Wang, along with his students Chen Zhu and Chen Saijuan, adopted a treatment combining ATRA with a traditional Chinese medicine compound, dramatically increasing the five-year survival rate of APL from 10% in 1978 to over 95%. This made it the world’s first curable leukemia.
Some international media have praised this treatment as “the Shanghai Plan” and listed it among “New China’s eight major contributions to the world’ s medical field,” alongside the discovery of artemisinin. Chen Zhu, former health minister, praised Wang not only as a teacher but also as a role model for his scientific spirit, exceptional medical skills, and admirable character.
4. What is the main reason Wang Zhenyi was awarded the Medal of the Republic
A. His discovery of artemisinin.
B. His work as a former health minister.
C. His contributions to leukemia treatment.
D. His long teaching career at Shanghai Ruijin Hospital.
5. When did Wang Zhenyi first successfully transform cancer cells into normal ones in clinical practice
A 1979. B. 1986. C. 1995. D. 2000.
6. Why did Wang Zhenyi decide to devote his career to defeating leukemia
A. Because he longed for an award.
B. Because he desired for respected recognition.
C. Because he was interested in innovative treatments.
D. Because he witnessed the high death rate of APL patients.
7. What can we conclude from the passage about Wang Zhenyi’s treatment for APL
A. It has been used all over the world. B. It significantly increased the survival rate.
C It completely cured all patients in the world. D. It was replaced by newer treatments in the 1990s.
C
Have you ever made eye contact with a robot It can be a very strange experience. Now, researchers in Italy have found that it is more than just a feeling. They ran an experiment that showed how a robot’s stare can trick people into thinking they are socially interacting with a human being. That experience can slow a person’s ability to make decisions.
“Stare is an extremely important social signal that we use on a day-to-day basis when interacting with others,” said Professor Agnieszka Wykowska. She is the lead writer of a study on the research.
“ The question is whether the robot stare will bring very similar mechanisms (机制)in the human brain as another human’s stare would.” Wykowska said.
The team asked 40 people to play a video game of “chicken.” In the game, each player has to decide whether to permit a car to drive straight toward another car or to turn to avoid a crash. The people were playing against a human- like robot sitting across from them.
During breaks in the game, players had to look at the robot. Sometimes the robot would look back and other times it would look away. As the interactions happened, the scientists collected data on behavior and brain activity.
“Our results show that, actually, the human brain processes the robot stare as a social signal, and that signal has an impact on the way we’re making decisions on the strategies we use in the game and also on our responses,” Wykowska said.
The “stare of the robot affected decisions by delaying them, so humans were much slower in making the decisions in the game,” she added.
The findings could be useful in helping to decide where and how human- like robots might be placed in the future. When it is understood when and how robots change social behavior, “then we can decide which sort of context is desirable and beneficial for humans and in which context this should not occur,” Wykowska said.
8. What is the main purpose of the experiment described in the passage
A. To compare the social skills of humans and robots.
B. To test whether humans can beat robots in a driving game.
C. To study how a robot’s stare influences human decision- making.
D. To find out why people feel strange when making eye contact with robots.
9. What do we know about the experiment
A. The 40 participants played the “chicken” game with each other.
B. The participants played against a human- like robot in the game.
C. The scientists collected data on the participants’ game strategies only.
D. The robot’s stare direction remained unchanged during the game breaks.
10. How does a robot’s stare influence people according to the experiment results
A. A robot’s stare makes humans decide more slowly.
B. A robot’s stare makes humans decide faster.
C. A robot’s stare makes humans decide more efficiently.
D. A robot’s stare makes humans decide by social signal.
11. What advice does the study give for using human- like robots in the future
A. Human- like robots should always make eye contact to build trust with humans.
B. Human- like robots should be widely used in all public and private contexts.
C. Human- like robots should be designed to minimize human brain activity.
D. Human- like robots should be employed wisely in different situations.
D
Imagine knowing nothing about your childhood, nothing about where you came from, and spending years hunting for the answers. Then someone hands you a just-discovered treasure of photographs of yourself as a baby. You’d finally be able to observe every detail, searching for clues about yourself and how you came to be the way you are.
That’s just what it will be like for astronomers once a long-expected, $10 billion telescope finally launch into space in the coming days. If all goes well, it will soon show them what the universe looked like as a newborn, nearly 14 billion years ago.
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, the most powerful space telescope ever, is waiting at a launch site in French Guiana, which should be able to detect infrared (红外线的) light from galaxies (星系) that are so far away that the light from them has been traveling through space for almost the entire history of the universe.
NASA’s got a new, big telescope that could find signs of life on planets, which means when astronomers detect light from these stars and galaxies, it will be like receiving photos in time from the distant past. “We are trying to build up the story of how the first galaxies ever emerged and how those evolved into galaxies we see today,” says Maru a Brada , an astronomer at the University of California, Davis. “If you don’t get the beginning right, it’s really difficult to figure out what the whole evolution looked like.”
The James Webb Space Telescope should be able to provide more information about lots of additional galaxies this old and even older, which will help researchers understand how galaxies formed and changed into the familiar shapes and structures seen today.
Humans have long looked up at the skies and tried to make sense of our place in the universe, Mason points out, and the James Webb Space Telescope is the latest step forward in that ancient quest.
“How did we get here What is the history of our universe that brought us to the point where we can sit here and think about it ” Maru a Brada asks. “To me, that really means starting at the beginning. How did the very first galaxies form in our universe Because those are really the building blocks of the Milky Way that we live in.”
12. Why are baby photos mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To explain how people recall their childhood.
B. To describe the excitement of finding baby photos.
C. To tell stories about someone’s childhood memories.
D. To lead in the topic of studying the early universe.
13. Why is the James Webb Space Telescope able to see galaxies from the early universe
A. It is located on a high mountain.
B. It travels to distant galaxies to collect data.
C. It can detect infrared light from very distant galaxies.
D. It uses special cameras to take pictures of nearby stars.
14. What does the underlined word “emerged” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Appeared. B. Combined. C. Changed. D. Destroyed.
15. What is Maru a Brada ’s attitude toward the James Webb Space Telescope
A. Doubtful. B. Indifferent. C. Positive. D. Critical.

I could feel the excitement rising in me as I held the beautifully wrapped present in my hands. It was a new laptop (笔记本电脑). I had always envied my friends who were sharing news about “chat rooms” and “e-mailing”. Now I was going to find out.
It started out simply enough. I was searching for some information online when I came across a social networking site. Soon I became glued to my new-found online friend. I began to spend more and more time on the Internet. Whenever I was not visiting these social networking sites, I would be going through gossip websites.
As time passed, I realized that I was addicted to the Internet. It came to a point where I chose to lock myself in my room, refusing to come out and take part in family discussions. Soon I was spending the early morning on the Internet. Sleep was reduced to naps and my grades at school also began deteriorating (恶化).
It was about this time that my parents started voicing their disapproval. I was asked to cut down on my use of the Internet. Yet, however hard I tried, I was unable to pull myself away and unable to focus on my lessons. Then one day, my father took away my laptop. I shouted angrily, but to no effect. That was when I decided to take the big step — to overcome my Internet addiction.
Quitting was harder than I expected. But I promised my parents that I would turn over a new page and find ways to break away from the Internet. I started by creating a list of things to be finished during the day. Then, I set aside sometime each day to work on these tasks, which helped me stay focused throughout the day. With the help of my family, my Internet addiction gradually faded away.
Paragraph 1: One evening I came to Mum’s bedroom for a rare heart-to-heart conversation.

Paragraph 2: I promised that I would turn over a new page.
