More than l,200scientists, NASA guests and important persons, including 200 reporters, watched theflyby live at New Horizons mission control center. That close encounter has been a long time coming. The$723 million New Horizonsmission launched in January 2006 but began taking shape in 1989. New Horizons isacapstone mission, Glen Fountain, mission project manager told Space, com. It is thefirst completion of the observations of our solar system. It-s giving us a new idea abouthow we human beings fit into the universe. New Horizons faced a crazy number of challenges, Stern, a driving force behindNew Horizons said, So many people stuck with this for so long. They got knockeddown; they stood up. They got knocked down again; they stood up again.” In a coincidence, todays close approach falls on the 50th anniversary of the first flybyof Mars, another planet, which was completed by NASA-s Mariner 4 spaceship.

A Close Approach to Pluto B Having spring around makes you feel different after such a long winter journey. Thepower of sunshine brings us a lot of comfort, optimism, self-confidence and of course asmile. Imagine how great it will be if we are so positive all year round！ Living like this is possible if you really think about it. In order to exist in such a stateo happiness, we must have sunshine radiating from within ourselves, shining from ourhearts, minds and souls. Actually, that-s your choice, and if you think that way then yourown life will reflect that attitude of yours! In order to make sunshine or rather, light part of our being, it is so importantthat you watch your thoughts, your words and your actions so that you will accept whatyou really feel youd like to create in your own life. Watch your thoughts and reallybecome aware of how many negative thoughts pass through your mind about yourself andother people around you. Watch to see how often you gossip (说闲话) about other people,which is actually often attached with feelings of jealousy (妒忌) and insecurity aboutyourself. You are also supposed to take a close look at your intention. How many of you (Iosomething for another person without expecting to receive something in return? It mightnot even have to be a material or physical thing you expect; expecting to be recognized forwhat you have done is enough to create conditions on your intention. Think about it! Putting all of these together, it seems that most of us are creating monsters inside usjust by simply talking, thinking and not putting our heart out with the right intentiontowards helping someone else. If you take all your negative attitudes in one hand andmeasure your need to feel sunshine in the other, you will see how both these elementsreally contradict each other. Be brave and break your patterns and your habits this spring, and by doing so. youwill allow the true sunshine to take place by radiating out from your heart and into yourlife and the lives of the people around you！24. You can have sunshine shining from your inside . A. by measuring what you need B. by helping someone else C. by watching what you think, say and do D. by changing your intention25. According to the writer, you don t feel secure about yourself when you . A. gossip about other people B. take a close look at your intention C. expect to be recognized for what youve done D. become aware of your negative thoughts26. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Expecting something in return for our help isnt the right intention. B. Breaking our patterns is the most important to get true sunshine. C. If we don-t intend to help others, we create monsters inside us. D. Negative attitudes have little to do with happiness.27. The passage is written mainly to _ . A. stress the importance of the positive life style B. analyze the intentions and thoughts in our mind C. offer advice on having sunshine from our inside D. warn us about the bad effects of negative attitudes C Face-book chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg and Anna Maria Chavez, chief ofAmerican Girl Scouts, are leading a campaign to discourage the use of the word bossy.Does the term destroy the confidence of young girls? The campaign claims that terms like bossy are improperly applied to females,preventing schoolgirls from seeing themselves as future leaders. From its firstapplication, the word has been definitely connected more with women than with men Itfirst appeared in 1882, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, mentioning a ladymanager who was extremely bossy . As late as 2008, the word appeared in reference tofemales four times more often than males, claim the Ban Bossy campaigners. To me, thereference is always in association with women, says Helen Trim, director of FreshMinds. I have three brothers and my family still call me bossy today. Her father isthe only other family member who could be considered in that way, says Trim, butnobody would ever call him so. Some educators recommend that the word should be reclaimed, rather than banned.But the thing with bossy is that there-s an infantile(幼稚的) element to it, says SaraMills, professor at Sheffield University. You think of bossy as being like a little kidwhos claiming more than he has the right to claim. Its not just bossy under fire. Pushy is another target. The implication is thatwomen shouldnt present themselves as powerful and confident, Mills suggests, whichsome women are willing to listen to and accept. Trim points out that many modern femalebusiness role models are able to be bosses without being labeled bossy. And she rarely,if ever, hears the word used within her company. But she says that the damage may bedone much earlier in a womans life. It does come about from those early teenage years. she says. I think its impossible to ban a word, but if people are replacing it with wordslike confidence or 6assertiveness, we would all be in a much better place. 28. More evidence is provided to show bossy is more applied to females by _ . A. the Oxford English Dictionary B. the Ban Bossy campaigners C. Helen Trim at Fresh Minds D. some experts in education29. Trims family still consider her bossy because . A. she is expected to lead in her family B. she is the boss of her company C. she is a powerful and confident female D. her father considers her that way30. The underlined part under fire most probably means . A. definitely replaced B. strongly criticized C. improperly applied D. eagerly expected31. How does the author sound when referring to the campaign against bossy? A. Objective. B. Angry. C. Doubtful D. Optimistic. D Professional footballers have worryingly poor teeth that could be affecting theirperformance on the football ground, say dentists. Their study on players at eight clubs inEngland and Wales, in the British Journal o f Sports Medicine, showed nearly 4 0ut of 10had cavities （蛀牙) and that athletes often had worse teeth than the general population.Regularly taking sugary foods is one possible explanation. The dentists, from the International Centre for Evidence-Based Oral Health atUniversity College London, examined 187 players sets of teeth. They found 53% haddental erosion (腐蚀), 45% were bothered by the state of their teeth and 7% said itaffected their ability to train or play. Around 40% had cavities, compared with 30% ofpeople of a similar age in the general population. Prof Ian Needleman, one of the researchers, said: These are individuals whootherwise invest so much in themselves so its a surprising finding. There are two main groups - some have a catastrophic effect, they have veryserious disease that stops them in their tracks and they cannot play or train. There Il be others experiencing pain affecting sleep or sensitivity every time they takea drink. At this level of athlete, even small differences can be quite telling. Nutrition is one of the primary suspects with having too many sugary or acidic foodsduring training potentially accounting for cavities and erosion. A lot of air in the mouthduring exercise can also dry it out so there is less protection. While these findings are worrying, clubs are attaching greater importance to dentalhealth and educating their players. According to Stijin Vandenbroucke, head of medicineand sports science at West Ham United, oral health is an area where many athletes havegreater problems than the general population and there are clear benefits of oral diseaseprevention for athletes and clubs.32. What does the passage tell us about professional footballers teeth? A. Nearly 4 out of 10 players in the UK suffer from toothaches. B. They have been invested a great deal by individual players. C. Many players poor teeth bother their career and daily life. D. British footballers teeth are examined regularly.33. What mainly results in professional footballers poor teeth? A. Experiencing too much training. B. Eating food with too much sugar. C. Breathing in lots of air during exercise. D. Having little education of oral disease prevention.34. These findings are worrying clubs because_. A. footballers arent willing to give up sugary or acidic food B. theyve spent much on their players oral disease prevention C. footballers have more serious tooth problems than the public D. players oral disease may lead to bad performance in games35. This passage is most probably taken from_. A. a dentists diary B. a sports newspaper C. a medicine magazine D. a science report第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others think of it as amelting pot.
