A 13-year-old American boy on Saturday became the youngest climber to conquer Mount Everest, the world’s highest mountain.
Jordan Romero from Big Bear, California, climbed up the 8,850-meter summit (峰顶) from the Tibetan side. On the same day, a Nepali (尼泊尔的) man, Apa Sherpa, broke his own world record of climbing Everest when he reached the summit for the twentieth time. Apa Shepa’s team set off from Nepal’s capital, Kathmandu, last month, heading for the base camp (大本营) on the Chinese side of the mountain.
“The team has just called in and believe that they are standing on top of Mt. Everest,” Romero’s blog said. “Their dreams have now come true. Everyone is happy.”
The climbing has put Romero one step closer to reaching his goal of climbing the highest mountains on all seven continents (大洲). “It is just a goal.” Romero said. He had already climbed five peaks (高峰), and needs to climb only Vinson Massif, the highest peak in Antarctica, to hit his goal.
The youngest person before to climb Everest was 16-year-old Temba Tsheri Sherpa of Nepal. Romero climbed together with a team including his father Paul and three local guides. He wanted to pick a small piece of rock from the top of the world and wear it in a necklace.
While Nepal insists that anyone planning to climb Mount Everest must be at least 16. China does not have any age restrictions (限制). Some mountain climbers haven’t agreed with the Romero family for letting him try it but his father said the climbing from the Chinese side is less dangerous.

C. break the world record D. realize part of his goal
57. To stand on the highest mountains on all seven continents, Jordan Romero plans to climb the peak in ____.

Benjamin Franklin was born on January 17, 1706 in Boston, America. In his life he built a successful printing and publishing business in Philadelphia; he conducted scientific studies of electricity and made several important discoveries; he was a diplomat (外交官) and statesman; he helped establish Pennsylvania’s first university and America’s first city hospital; he also organized the country’s first subscription library (收费图书馆).
Franklin was also unequaled in America as an inventor until Thomas Edison. Ben had poor eyesight and needed glasses to read. He got tired of always taking them off and putting them back on, so he decided to figure out a way to make his glasses let him see both near and far. He had two pairs of glasses cut in half and put half of them together. Today, we call them bifocals (双光眼镜). Another invention of his, an iron stove, allowed people to warm their homes.
He loved to learn about new things. He also thought it was important to make life better with the things that he invented. Electricity was one of the things he experimented with when he retired from his business. Ben discovered that lightning and electricity were the same thing. The lightning rod was an important invention that we still use today to protect buildings and ships from lightning damage.
Franklin preferred to have his inventions used freely for the comfort and convenience of everyone. Thomas Jefferson, the third president of America, called Benjamin Franklin “the greatest man of the age and country in which he lived”. To Benjamin Franklin there was no greater purpose in life than to “live usefully”.

A. diplomat B. scientist
C. businessman D. president

If you’re ever apart from your children, a new study says just talking on the phone will help just as much as a hug (拥抱).
If you’re a parent who spends long hours on the job, you probably feel sorry for spending so much time away from your kids. But the results of a new study show that a mother’s voice alone can be just as comforting to an anxious child as physical contact.
In an experiment, researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison asked a group of girls between the age of 7 and 12 to solve math problems in front of judges – a stressful (充满压力了) situation for anyone. Before the girls were set to solve math problems, the researchers measured their levels of two hormones (荷尔蒙): cortisol, which goes up during stressful periods, and oxytocin, the “love” hormone.
After they were finished, some of the girls got to meet up with their mothers right away. The mums came in and hugged the girls. Another group of the girls didn’t see their mothers, but received phone calls from them, in which their mothers told them how well they’d done. The final group had no contact with their mothers, but watched an animal movie, March of the Penguins instead.
Finally, the girls’ hormone levels were measured again. although the movie was interesting, it did noting to ease (缓解) the children’s anxiety – but, surprisingly, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same effect on easing the girls’ stress levels.
So, no matter how old you are, if you’re feeling stressed about something in your life, a phone call to Mom might be just the key to help you feel better.
The first two paragraphs suggest that ____.
A. a mother’s voice can comfort her anxious kid
B. the results of the study can’t be accepted by mothers
C. parents are too busy to talk with their kids
D. mothers should spend enough time staying with their kids
67. Which of the following is the right order in which the study was carried out
a. The girls’ levels of hormones were measured again.
b. The girls solved math problems.
c. The girls’ levels of hormones were measured.
d. The girls were divided into three groups.
A. b-c-d-a B. d-b-c-a C. c-b-d-a D. d-c-b-a
68. We can learn from the third paragraph that cortisol ____.
A. is good for our health
B. can change into oxytocin
C. may go down when the situation becomes comfortable
D. is one kind of hormones mainly found in girls
69. According to the passage, we can infer that ____.
A. it is easy for girls to solve math problems
B. the girls who had watched the movie remained anxious
C. mothers should hug their kids as often as possible
D. older girls have higher cortisol than younger ones.
70. What is the author’s attitude towards the study
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Uncertain. D. Worried.
