Do you suppose Darwin, one of the greatest scientists of all time, really did fools experiments Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish
Sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution to a problem. Sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important.
Charles Darwin didn’t settle for (满足于) just thinking he knew something. And, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be.
Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. If you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets. What happens You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldn’t be worth anything.
But this simple experiment is important. It explains part of our present-day understandings of physics, ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton. And these understandings set aside some of ancient Greek physics.
Scientist sometimes stops to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. Even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science.
36. The passage tells us that Charles Darwin ____________.
A. was a great English scientist
B. always liked doing the experiments that others thought difficult
C. thought even the simplest thing was important
D. didn’t get well with others
37.The phrase “set aside” most probably means____________.
A. throw away B. store up
C. put to use D. realize
38. The author of the passage tries to ____________.
A. convince us that Charles Darwin, Galileo and Newton are the greatest scientists in the world
B. draw the conclusion that basic sciences are simple things
C. prove that two sheets of paper, with the same size and shape, will fall at the same speed
D. draw our attention to everyday happenings around us
39. Which of the following is TRUE ____________
A. Darwin really did fools experiments.
B. According to some people Darwin did foolish experiments.
C. It is believed by all the people that things could be important though they seemed to be simple.
D. Galileo and Newton worked out ancient Greek physics.
B
Medicine comes in different packages. Some in a tablet can make your headache go away. Others from a tube can prevent your cuts from becoming infected. But can medicine come packaged in chicken eggs
Scientists from Scotland say "yes". They've engineered(改变基因) special chickens that _________ with disease-treating drugs inside. These drugs are made of protein. Animals make thousands of proteins which are the main aspects in skin, hair, milk, and meat. Since animals can make proteins easily, they also can make protein drugs.
Researchers have already made cows, sheep, and goats produce protein drugs in their milk. But chickens are cheaper to take care of, need less room, and grow faster than these other animals. A team of researchers changed chickens' DNA, the code that tells cells how to make proteins, so that the birds' cells made two protein drugs. One drug can treat skin cancer, and the other treats a nerve disease.
The scientists changed the chickens' DNA so that the birds made these drugs only in their egg whites. This protects the chickens' bodies from the drugs' possible harmful effects and makes it easy for scientists to collect the drugs.
These special chickens can pass on their drug-laying abilities to their chickens. The scientists need to improve these chickens before they settle in drug companies' labs. The birds don't make enough drugs to treat people yet. But one day it will come into our daily life.
40.What does the passage mainly talks about (Please answer within 10 words.)
_______________________________________________________________________________
41.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one
The drug-laying abilities can go down to the next generation of these special chickens.

20. B arrange意为“准备,安排”,指为某事作好准备和安排。根据下文所提供的情景“When she arrived”可判断出Atsuko准备去加利福尼亚上大学。hope意为“希望”;like意为“喜欢,愿意”;attempt意为“企图”,都与下文的内容不相符合。
21. B imagine意为“想像,设想;猜想,推测”,上文讲到“I had a picture in mind:Daddy watching TV in the living room,Mummy baking cakes and their teenage daughter off to the cinema with her boyfriend.”因此可判断出实际的情况与她想像的不一样。describe意为“描述”;create意为“创作,创造”;discover意为“发现”。
22.A tense意为“紧张的”,上文中的“People were struggling with problems”说明,由于尽力解决问题,他们似乎经常处于紧张状况。cheerful意为“高兴的;兴致勃勃的;欢乐的;快活的;爽快的”;relaxed意为“放松的”;deserted意为“被放弃的”。

25. D hit意为“打,击”,hit the ball表示用手击球。上文中的We played volleyball表明他们在打排球,所以要用手击球。kick the ball意为“踢球”,pass the ball意为“传球”,carry the ball意为“带球”,都不符合打排球的比赛规则。
26. C over意为“越过”,指把排球打过网。through意为“穿过”,指从空间中穿过。into意为“到……里”,past意为“过,通过”,这也都不符合打排球的比赛规则。

29. D whisper意为“低语;耳语”,指低声地对某人说话、讲话。因为这位年轻人觉察出Atsuko害怕在人们面前丢脸的心理状态,所以他用“Come on. You can do that.”这样的话语鼓励她,而在许多人面前,他只能低声地对她说。warn意为“警告”;sigh意为“叹息”;order意为“命令”。
30. B encouragement意为“鼓励”,“Come on. You can do that.”意为“加油,你能行”,是鼓励人们努力的话语。excitement意为“激动”;persuasion意为“说服,劝导”;suggestion意为“建议”。
31. D sure意为“深信,确信”。上文讲述了在一次排球比赛中,一位年轻人鼓励Atsuko努力去做,“You can do that.”使她增强了信心,体育课程取得了好成绩。所以这里讲到她或许应该谢谢这个年轻人,但心中没有把握,不知道该不该这样做。interested意为“感兴趣”;doubtful意为“怀疑的”;puzzled意为“感到迷惑不解的”。
32.A never意为“从不”,根据下文中的“When things are not going so well,I think of them.”可判断出Atsuko没有忘记那位年轻人所说的话。already意为“已经”;seldom意为“不常;很少;难得……”;almost意为“几乎”。
33. D mean意为“意味着”,表示她深信那位年轻人不知道她的好心对她来说有多么重要。happen意为“发生”,指事情偶然发生;apply意为“运用,应用”;seem意为“似乎”。

35. C simple意为“简单的”,“You can do that.”只含有四个词,是一句简单的话。merciful意为“仁慈的,温和的”;bitter意为“辛苦的,悲惨的”;easy意为“容易的”。
Ⅳ.阅读理解
36. C 本题为判断题。短文并没有说 Charles Darwin是哪个国家的科学家,可排除A;由第二段可知别人认为Darwin的许多实验不值得做,可把B排除;文中没有论述Darwin与别人相处的事情,可排除D。由“he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be.”可推出答案C。
37. A 本题为词义猜测题。由上文可知作者认为做这个简单实验是重要的,它解释了目前人们对于物理方面的理解。因此这些理解当然是推翻了一些希腊古典物理学的观点。由此可推知set aside与throw away同义。
38. D 本题为主旨大意题。短文的最后一段点明最简单的事情都可能动摇科学的根基,意在告诉读者要留意身边的每一件事,哪怕它非常简单。
39. B 本题为细节考查题。短文第一段第二句“Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish ”明确告诉我们,有些人认为Darwin做了愚蠢的实验。
40.Medicine packed in eggs. /Chickens that can lay eggs which contain drugs.
41.These special chickens can pass on their drug-laying abilities to their chickens.
42.can lay eggs
43.I think if one day these kinds of special chicken become popular, it is more convenient for people to treat their diseases by eating those special eggs.
44.这样会使鸡不会受到药品的副作用的伤害而且便于科学家们收集药品。

【基础巩固 全面训练】
Ⅰ.单项选择
1. C 句意:“教育不应该仅仅以考试成绩去衡量。”考查“be measured by...结构”,故答案是C。
2. B 考查动词的被动语态和时态。因为句中有last year所以用一般过去时,又因students和send abroad之间是被动关系,故选B。
3. A 句意:因为比旧机型节水、耗电量小,所以这台洗衣机是环保的。water和electricity为不可数名词,应由less修饰,故排除C、D两项。B项为干扰项。
4. C 句意:“那个工厂大约三分之二的工人是年轻人。”考查分数作主语后跟可数名词,谓语用复数,故答案是C。
5. C 句意:—你带的钱够吗?—不够,我花的钱比原计划要花的多。该题主要考查语言情景运用能力,其中no就是一个关键词,由此推知,用的钱比带的多。
6. D 句意:第十六届亚运会被宣布开幕的那一刻全世界都为此而欢呼。the moment=as soon as,引导时间状语从句,用一般过去时,故答案是D。
7. A 句意:她企图越狱时中了一枪。escape from从……逃脱;break away from脱离,摆脱; free from免受……的影响。
8. B 句意:他们正在树林中寻找走失的孩子。根据语意,答案是B。

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
Some of us are having problems with our parents, as they often look into our school bags or read our diaries. I fully understand why we are not comfortable about it, but there’s no need to feel too sad. Our parents are checking our bags or diaries to make sure we’re not getting into any trouble. They have probably heard some horrible stories about other kids and thought we might do the same. Or perhaps they just want to connect with us but are doing it all wrong. My suggestion is: Tell them we want them to trust us as much as we’d like to trust them. If you don’t think you can talk to them, write them a letter and leave it lying around—they are bound to read it.
Thank you!

Ⅱ.单项选择
11. C 考查动词辨析:lift搬,抬;raise提升;support支持,支撑;rise抬高,增加,根据题意可知,应选C项。
12. C 句意:到目前为止,已有大量的粮食被送往非洲以拯救饥民。up to now通常与现在完成时连用;“large quantities of+名词”作主语时,谓语动词往往用复数形式。
13. D 句意:这只飞鸟很幸运,没有被农夫撒在田间的隐形网捕捉住。此处escape表示“逃脱,逃避”,后接动词时需用V- ing形式,又the flying bird与catch之间是被动关系,故用being caught。
14. C hope后面不能跟不定式作宾补,排除A、B;clear up此处表示“(天)放晴”,符合题意。clean up“清理掉”。
15.B earn one's living “谋生”,为固定短语。
16.B 句意:石油价格从今年年初已增长了32%,在4月4日创下每桶57.65美元的纪录。此处用现在分词表示石油价格增长的结果。having reached是现在分词的完成式,表示该动作发生在石油价格增长之前,显然不对;to reach要么作目的状语,要么作结果状语,表示出乎预料的结果。
17.D 根据句意和时间状语“by the end of last year”可知,本句应该用过去完成时的被动语态形式。
18.B 句意:藏在卡车上的大量武器被发现了。quantities of短语作主语,谓语动词用复数;hidden短语作后置定语修饰arms。
19.D 句意:—约翰为什么被警察逮捕了呢?—据说他家里藏有大量的毒品。a great amount of修饰不可数名词,可排除;a plenty of结构不对,应去掉a;a large quantity of与quantities of既可跟可数名词复数,也可跟不可数名词,故选D。
20. D huge quantities of后跟名词作主语时,其后谓语动词需用复数形式,排除A、B;earth与wash away为被动关系,应用被动语态,故选D。
