              What would you like to be when you grow up？A teacher？A doctor？An astronaut？What do you need to do to achieve your dream job？Perhaps you think that studying well and then going on to work hard will get you successful career you want．We are constantly taught that our hard work will eventually pay off．
              But a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that will help you to move up the ladder．Two thirds of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity．So are the connections that you have more important than your education？
              76% of the people in the survey believed that family background is important in influencing your chances of success．They believe that if you are privileged from birth，you are more likely to have a successful career，especially if your family is wealthy．
              Even if you don't have a privileged background，the people you know can still make a difference to your career．Networking is a skill which is encouraged by many career advisers．Some companies run networking workshops to try and encourage staff to meet other people，to communicate and build relationships．It's a valuable skill．
              But the survey also showed something quite interesting．Although most people believed that networks are more important than education，many people put their own career success down to talent，rather than background.41% of the people said that their parents'income had influenced their life，but at the same time，another 41% believed that they had achieved their own success．
              So which is more important，what you know or who you know？It seems that by working hard and making lots of connections，the answer may be that both are very important．

              (1) Which of the following is closet in meaning to the underlined part？ ______
              A. Practice makes perfect
              		B. Nothing is impossible
              C. Hope for the best
              		D. No pains，no gains
              (2) According to the government survey，the most important factor to help people move up the ladder
              is ______ ．
              A. hard work
              		B. education
              C. social relationship
              		D. social activity
              (3) Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage？ ______
              A. 76% of the people think social relationship is most important．
              B. 41% of the people believe parents'income is most important．
              C. 76% of the people think family background ranks first．
              D. 41% of the people believe they gained their own success．
              (4) From the passage we can infer that the writer writes the article to ______ ．
              A. stress the importance of education
              B. challenge the traditional belief
              C. make lots of social connections
              D. encourage people to work hard．
              (5) Which of the following is the best title for the passage？ ______
              A. the Way to Success
              B. Keep Your Dream in Mind

              It's hard to walk into a store these days without seeing the lovely and forgetful star of Disney/Pixar's film Finding Dory smiling back at you．Toys，games，books，T-shirts，lunch boxes-Dory is everywhere．Many kids will put these items on their holiday wish list．But one thing that should be left off that list is a real live Dory．
              It's happened many times in the past．A box-office hit or clever commercial turns an animal into a star and suddenly everyone wants one．It becomes a"fad．"But the definition of a fad is：something that is only popular for a short time．
              Animal shelters have taken in thousands of animals who became instantly popular，and then just as suddenly were unwanted．They include certain dog breds（品种），rabbits，and wilife like turtes，snakes，lizards and fishes．
              When Finding Nemo was released in 2003，clown fish became a must-have pet，and millions of people rushed out to buy them．But like other fad animals（including turtles after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles hit the big screen），people soon realized that they weren't prepared to care for them properly．As a result，many of the fish died．
              That has scientists like Jonathan Balcombe worried．Dory is a kind of fish called a royal blue tang，explains Balcombe．Blue tangs live around coral reefs．And unlike clown fish，they can't be bred in tanks．That means they are captured from the wild，usually using methods that harm them as well as other marine animals（海洋动物）and their ocean habitats．
              Blue tangs can easily become ill if not cared for properly．So before you add a Dory look-alike to your wish list，remember this．Movies last only an hour or two，but pets are for life．If you want a great pet，visit an animal shelter．Let fishes like Dory continue to swim in the ocean where they belong．

              (1) What do we know about Dory in the film Finding Dory？ ______
              A. It made a long dream list．
              B. It is a well-loved character．
              C. It has an excellent memory．
              DIt helped kids get their wishes．
              (2) Which of the following is TRUE about fad pets？ ______
              A. They soon die of disease or hunger．
              B. They usually end in animal shelters．
              C. They are mistreated by their owners．
              D. They are popular with people for a long time．
              (3) Why did many of the fad fish die？ ______
              A. They got poisoned．
              B. They were overhunted．
              C. They lacked proper care．
              D. They couldn't find enough food．
              (4) What would be the best title？． ______
              A. A new movie will hit the big screen
              B. Rise of fad pets leads to neglect of animals
              C. Finding Dory makes the blue tang fish popular
              D. Find Dory on the big screen，not in your fish tank．

              With rapid advances in medical science，cloning is slowly but surely looking like it could be in our near future．However，is it really an option that should be considered as a way to extend human life？
              Reproductive cloning may help human families gain children，but there's also a benefit for the animal world．It brings hope to people eager for children but unable to have their own or adopt．It can also bring about the recreation of species that have long since died，allowing scientists to fully study the species as a living creature instead of simply looking at images or bones．
              Many believe that cloning can be used to replace failing organs．This will reduce the waiting list for organ donations and allow more people to be saved．Not only that，but because the organ is，in fact，your own organ，there would be less chance of rejection．
              Cloning could prove helpful in genetic research．Using cloning technologies，genetic researchers would have a better understanding of the composition of genes and the effects of genetic constituents（成分）on human characters．There's also the possibility of changing genetic constituents in cloned humans，and cloning could help fight genetic diseases．
              While the cloning of body organs can help extend human life，it could also cause a lot of malpractice（玩忽职守）．Along with the ability to clone desired characters，there could be the possibility of people deliberately reproducing undesired characters．This could lead to a rise in malpractices within society．
              Cloning involves a process of creating identical genes．As such，there would be a lack of diversity in humankind．Scientists believe this lack of diversity will lower the human race's ability to adapt．
              Whatever your view on cloning may be，studies show that the clone would in fact not be completely identical to the original just as twins are not completely identical．Though they might look alike，twins have different personalities and enjoy different things．The same could be said of clones．Even if technology were created in which your memories and thoughts could be transmitted（传送）to the clone，your clone would still be a different person．

              (1) What good might reproductive cloning bring？ ______
              A. It may help improve human well-being．
              B. It could contribute to the rising birthrate．
              C. It could help animals survive deadly diseases．
              D. It may enable scientists to better study extinct species．
              (2) According to the text，cloning can also be used for ______ ．
              A. organ transplant
              B. solving the aging problem
              C. infectious disease treatment
              D. constructing a gene database
              (3) What's one problem cloning may cause？ ______
              A. Great diversity．
              B. Individual security risk．
              C. Increased improper conduct．
              D. Serious personality disorder．
              (4) Why are twins mentioned in the last paragraph？ ______
              A. To stress twins'similarities．
              B. To show twins are quite common．
              C. To carry out deeper research on twins．
              D. To better illustrate what a clone will be like．

              People who have lost the abilit to understad or use words due to brain damage are called aphasics（失语症患者）．Such patients can be extremely good at something else．From the changing expressions on speakers'faces and the tones of their voices，they can tell lies from truths．
              Doctors studying the human brain have given a number of examples of this amazing power of aphasics．Some have even compared this power to that of a dog with an ability to find out the drugs hidden in the baggage．
              Recently，scientists carried out tests to see if all that was said about aphasics was true．They studied a mixed group of people．Some were normal；others were aphasics．It was proved that the aphasics we far ahead of the normal people in recognizing false speeches-in most cases，the normal people were fooled by words，but the aphasics were not．
              Some years ago，Dr．Oliver Sacks wrote in his book about his experiences with aphasics．He mentioned a particular case in a hospital．Some aphasics were watching the president giving a speech on TV．Since the president had been an actor earlier，making a good speech was no problem for him．He was trying to put his feelings into every word of his speech．
              But his way of speaking had the opposite effect on the patients．They didn't seem to believe him．Instead，they burst into laughter．The aphasics knew that the president did not mean a word of what he was saying．He was lying!
              Many doctors see aphasics as people who are not completely normal because they lack the ability to understand words．However，according to Dr．Sacks，they are more gifted than normal people．Normal people may get carried away by words．Aphasics seem to understand human expressions better，though they cannot understand words．

              (1) What is so surprising about aphasics？ ______
              A. They can fool other people．
              B. They can tell whether people are lying．
              C. They can understand language better．
              D. They can find out the hidden drugs．
              (2) How did the scientists study aphasics？ ______
              A. By asking them to watch TV together．
              B. By organizing them into acting groups．
              C. By comparing them with normal people．
              D. By giving them chances to speak on TV．
              (3) What do we learn from this text？ ______
              A. What ones says reflects how one feels．
              B. Aphasics have richer feelings than others．
              C. Normal people often tell lies in their speeches．
              D. People poor at one thing can be good at another．

              You know the sound-that high-pitched noise in your ear that tells you a mosquito（蚊子）is looking for meal．Rather than donating blood to her cause，you wave the insect away．But that rarely works．Your body usually ends up with one or more itchy（痒的）red welts somewhere．Are there better ways to drive the annoying insects away？Yes，indeed!
              Preventing mosquito bites can also stop infections with dangerous illness．Mosquito-borne disease such as the Zika virus or malaria have terrible results．Several million people worldwide die from disease carried by mosquitoes each year，adding urgency to the battle．
              Studies have shown that certain groups of people are easy to be bitten by mosquitoes．These include those who are pregnant，have a higher-than-normal boy temperature or have type O blood．These groups should be aware they are more attractive to mosquitoes and stay inside whenever possible，especially at dawn and dusk．Many breeds of mosquitoes are more likely to bite at these times．People should also wear light，bright colors as dark colors attract the insects．
              Rubbing mosquito repellents（驱蚊剂）on exposed skin keeps the insects away for a time．Studies show that those containing DEET are most effective．Depending on the brand of repellent，the chemical keeps mosquitoes away for 5to 13hours．Some plant oils can be used instead of DEET，but they require more frequent application-every two hours-and in greater concentrations．Oils such as lemon eucalyptus or citronella are two possibilities．
              Another chemical，permethrin，can be applied to clothing to ward off mosquitoes．The chemical sticks to the fabric and will last through a few washings．Clothing that has been factory-treated with the chemical is also available．The manufactures say that it will remain the permethrin for about 70 washings．
              Mosquito coil（圈，卷）also keep mosquitoes away．However，the smoke from them pollutes and can damage the lungs，so they should be used with care．
              When you're inside，simply plugging in some fans will keep mosquitoes away as they are weak fliers．
              Everyone wants to avoid mosquito bites，so try several methods to see what works for you．

              (1) which of the following is true according to the passage？ ______
              A. Mosquitoes usually don't like dark colors．
              B. Mosquitoes don't like people with type O blood．
              C. It's not easy to remove some chemical treated off clothing．
              D. It's not easy to use mosquito coils to drive mosquitoes off．
              (2) What does the phrase ward off in Para 5most probably mean？ ______

              If you really want to go green，here's good news：eating green is good for you．The very foods with a high carbon cost---meat，pork，dairy products，processed snacks---also tend to be filled with fat and calories．A green diet would be mostly vegetables and fruit，whole grains，fish and lean meats like chicken---a diet that's eco-friendly and waistline-friendly．Eating green can be healthier and beneficial to the climate．
              It may be hard to believe that a meal at McDonald's produces more carbon than your trip to a far away place．More than 37% of the world's land is used for agriculture，much of which was once forested．Deforestation （砍伐森林） is a major source of carbon．The fertilizer （化肥） and machinery needed on a modern farm also have a large carbon footprint，as does the network of ships and trucks that brings the food from the farm to your plate．
              The most efficient way to reduce the carbon footprint of your menu is to eat less meat，especially beef．Raising cattle takes a lot more energy than growing the equivalent （相等的） amount of grains，fruits or vegetables．What's more，the majority of cattle in the U．S．are fed on grain and loads of it---670 million tons in 2002---and the fertilizer used to feed that creates separate environmental problems．
              Focus on eating lower on the food chain，with more plants and fruits and less meat and dairy．It's simple．We can change today what goes into our bodies for the health of our planet and ourselves．

              (1) According to the passage，eating green will ______ ．
              A. protect the animals from being killed
              B. promote the development of agriculture
              C. help us lose weight and keep self-confidence
              D. be good for our health and make a change for the climate
              (2) What will not lead to carbon in the agriculture？ ______
              A. Deforestation
              		B. Fertilizer
              		C. Machinery
              		D. Grains
              (3) In the author's opinion，the most efficient way to reduce carbon is to ______ ．
              A. eat more vegetables than meat
              B. stop raising the cattle
              C. plant more grains
              D. use less fertilizer

              Let us suppose it is now about A．D.2060．Let's make believe it is about 46 years from now．Of course，things have changed and life is very different．
              Voyages to the moon are being made every day．It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe．At a number of scenic spots on the moon，many hotels have been built．In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon，every room has at least one picture window．Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old．
              What are people eating now？People are still eating food．They haven't yet started to take on heir（继承） supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power．They may some day．But many foods now come in pill form，and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants．
              Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago，most of our planet's surface has to be filled．The deserts are irrigated（灌溉） with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests．The harvest is always good
              Farming，of course，is very highly developed．Very few people have to work on the farm．It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then．
              We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds，and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain，and it is possible to get rid of diseases．No one has to be ill any more．
              Such would be our life in 2060．

              (1) When was the passage written？ ______
              A. In about A．D.2060 B. In about 1960

              What is language for？Some people seem to think it's for racticing grammar rules and learning lists of words-the longer the lists，the better．That's wrong．Language is for the exchange（交流）of ideas and information．It's meaningless knowing all about a language if you can't use it freely．Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules，but they can't speak correctly or fluently（流利地）．They are afraid of making mistakes．One shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language．Native speakers make mistakes and break rules，too．Bernard Shaw once wrote，"Foreigners often speak English too correctly．"But the mitakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make．They're English mistakes in the English language．And if enough native speakers break a rule，it is no longer a rule．What used to be wrong becomes right．People not only make history，but they make language．But a people（民族） can only make its own language．It can't make another people's language．So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar，but they shouldn't overdo（做过头）it．They should put communication（交际）first．

              This type of woman is called a nühanzi （"tough woman"）．Experts believe these characteristics have social and psychological roots among young females in China．Su Hao's friends all call her a tough woman，because she can finish tough tasks usually carried out by men．For example，she carries 10-litre water to her dormitory on the 5th floor．"I depend on no one but myself，"she says．
              According to a recent survey by China Youth Daily，tough women have become rather common in society．Of the 21，265 respondents，78.5 percent said they are familiar with a tough woman．About 50 percent said they like women with tough characteristics，while less than 29 percent expressed the opposite view．
              Why are tough women gaining popularity？Shen Meng，a psychological consultant，believes the fierce competition in society is contributing to this trend．"Women are often in a disadvantaged position compared to men，"Shen says．"In order to survive，they have to be independent，strong and tough．"Liu Xiaolin，professor of psychology at Wuhan Mental Health Center，believes tough women are brought up this way．They are often on close relationship with their fathers，who teach their daughters to be brave and decisive，"he says．As a result，these women are more likely to be psychologically healthy and more tolerant to stress，according to Liu．
              Though Liu believes that this is a good trend，Hu Shenzhi，a psychologist at the Guangdong Sunflower Counseling Center，says the popularity of tough woman indicates an unclear line between gender identities，which can lead to relationship problems．"Some women with characteristics that differ from the traditional female image may have a difficult time finding Mr Right，"he says．"Even if they get married，their manly characteristics might cause family conflicts．

              The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named"DriveLAB"in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are．
              Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people，leading to them becoming more isolated（隔绝） and inactive．
              Led by Professor Phil Blythe，the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life．
              These include custom-made navigation（导航） tools，night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations．Phil Blythe explains："For many older people，particularly those living alone or in the country，driving is important for preserving their independence，giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others．"
              "But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills．The result is that people stop driving before they really need to．"
              Dr Amy Guo，the leading researcher on the older driver study，explains，"The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are fo older drivers and how we might use technology to solve these problems．
              "For example，most of us would expect older drivers always to go slower than everyone else but surprisingly，we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined．We're looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that．
              "We hope that our work will help with technological solutions（解决方案） to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel．"

              (1) What is the purpose of the DriveLAB？ ______
              A. To explore new means of transport．
              B. To design new types of cars．
              C. To find out older drivers'problems．
              D. To teach people traffic rules．
              (2) Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe？ ______
              A. It keeps them independent．
              B. It helps them save time．
              C. It builds up their strength．
              D. It cures their mental illnesses．
              (3) What do researchers hope to do for older drivers？ ______
              A. Improve their driving skills．
              B. Develop driver-assist technologies．
              C. Provide tips on repairing their cars．
              D. Organize regular physical checkups．
              (4) What is the best title for the text？ ______
              A. A new Model Electric Car
              B. A Solution to Traffic Problem
              C. Driving Service for elders
