In 1989 in a Zulu village, Daphne gave birth to a baby named Nkosi. As the months passed, the doctor found that the baby was infected with HIV, and so was his mother. The identity of his father would remain Daphne’s secret. Daphne was not yet 20, yet she was dying, and so was her tiny son.
Meanwhile, another South African woman, Gail Johnson, was living a different life. She and her husband were not wealthy, but a visit to a friend’s brother, who was in the last stage of AIDS, made her determined to do something. By October, she had raised enough money to set up a guest house and take in 12 people who were dying of AIDS. Daphne sent her boy to the guest house, where he became a star.
But in 1992 the guest house had to close for lack of money. Gail offered to adopt Nkosi. In 1997, Gail sent Nkosi to school, as there was no law preventing HIV-positive kids from entering South Africa’s schools. Eight-year-old Nkosi had lived longer than any other child ever born HIV-positive. In the three years at school Nkosi had only one accident. He fell in the playground and cut his mouth. The bleeding was handled with care. His school performance was satisfactory.
Nkosi’s progress was followed by the mediA. Gail took advantage of the coverage to raise money and found a house in Johannesburg for some women and their kids. She called it Nkosi’s Haven. Nkosi and Gail became icons (标志)in the international AIDS community. They were invited to the United States and made appearances. Then in July 2000, the 13th International Conference on AIDS was scheduled to be held in Durban.
Nkosi was introduced to a huge audience. “Hi,” he said. “My name is Nkosi Johnson. I’m 11 years old. I was born HIV-positive. I hate having AIDS, because I get very sick and I get very sad when I think of all the other children and babies with AIDS.
“Care for us and accept us. We are all human beings. We are normal. We have needs just like everyone else. Don’t be afraid of us. We are all the same.”
His tiny body was being attacked by AIDS, but his big heart inspired a nation.
A week after the Christmas in the year 2000, Nkosi asked if he could take a bath. He lay in the hot water and smiled. A few minutes later he went into a coma(昏迷).Early on June 1, 2001, Nkosi died. Gail kissed him. “I love you,” she said. “Go quietly, my darling boy.”

A team of international scientists has published the complete genome(基因组)of the woolly mammoth(长毛象)-a creature which became extinct(灭绝的)thousands of years ago.
The study, published in the Journal Current Biology, will probably cheer up a team of Harvard University researchers who've been planning to add mammoth genes to the stem cells(干会田胞)of elephants. Their aim is to find out how the mammoth's adaptations helped them survive the ice ages.
The Long Now Foundation, based in San Francisco, is financing the Harvard team and has daring plans for the future if the species is resurrected(使复活).It says on its website that its goal is "to produce new mammoths that are capable of repopulating the vast lands of cold desert and forest in Eurasia and North AmericA. " They say: "The goal is not to make perfect copies of extinct woolly mammoths, but to focus on the mammoth adaptations needed for Asian elephants to live in the cold climate of the cold desert."
But how close are we from a Jurassic-Park-like scene in which extinct animals are brought back to life? Very far, according to some experts. Professor Beth Shapiro, of the University of California, Santa Cruz, wrote a book called How to Clone a Mammoth. She is skeptical and believes there is a big difference between an embryo(胚胎)in a lab dish and a living animal with some of the characteristics of a mammoth. And we can't even be sure if the elephant's surrogate pregnancy(代孕)would be successful.
Woolly mammoths died out some 4, 000 years ago. It might take a long time before the fantasy of the Steven Spielberg movies is turned into reality. And that's fine for those of us who can remember that the resurrected dinosaurs on the screen gave the humans a pretty hard time. If mammoths come back, maybe it would be a good idea to start running...
8.What can we learn about the team of Harvard University researchers?
A. It is based in San Francisco.
B. It attempts to help elephants survive the cold weather.
C. It has added mammoth genes to the stem cells of elephants.
D.It has published the complete genome of the woolly mammoth.
9.It can be concluded from the article that Beth Shapiro’ attitude towards the success of the Mammoth cloning is.
A. optimistic B. doubtful C. convinced D. unsuspecting
10.By saying. it would be a good idea to start running…” the last paragraph, the writer really means”
A. Woolly mammoths are good at running. B. Woolly mammoths will soon come back to life.
C. Humans will have to drive mammoths away. D.Humans would be under threat of mammoths.
11.Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. Whether dead mammoths can come back to life B. Mammoths became extinct long ago
C. The challenges to clone mammoths D. Extinct mammoths being cloned
D
The storm doesn’t always have to pass before we see a rainbow. In fact, this group of artists would like passers-by to witness a burst of color during a storm.
Students and recent graduates from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) have created a concept design for sidewalk illustrations (图案)that appear only when wet. The members of the design team, who are all South Korean, imagined the project as a way to provide relief during Seoul's severe monsoon (季风)season.
'Seoul, South Korea, is a vibrant city,” the group wrote on its portfolio page. But during the annual three-week monsoon season, Seoul's energy disappears under the dark cloud.”
Using this weather as inspiration, the SAIC team developed Project Monsoon for a contest with Design and Art Direction (D&AD) --- a British group that promotes education in design and advertising. The Chicago team submitted their project for the Pantone Challenge, which asks contestants to Teimagine their hometown through the language of color,” as written on the D&AD website.
"When the challenge asked us to reimagine our hometown, it was natural for us to try to reimagine Seoul," James Lee, one of the designers, told The Huffington Post in a Facebook message.
Project Monsoon won a D&AD New Blood Black Pencil, which is the highest possible prize to be awarded for young creatives.
The designs, which are currently only concept renderings(概念效果图)and have yet to actually be installed, are Inspired by South Korea会 culture of emphasizing the importance of the flow of rivers, ” as well as the country’s topography(地貌), and feature(描绘...的特征)illustrations of marine life moving downstream. The group hopes to someday obtain the resources to put Project Monsoon into effect in Seoul.
"It looks like people are noticing the work and maybe we might be able get connected with someone who could bring this idea to life," Lee said.
12.Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?
A. People will see a rainbow before the storm passes. B. All the team members are now studying at SAIC.
C. This group of designers are all from South KoreA. D.The team members are suffering a lot from monsoon season.
13.Which of the following words can substitute for the underlined word “vibrant” (in Para 3)?
A. energetic B. modern C. prosperous D. bright
14.Which of the following is NOT true according to this passage?
A. The SAIC team and D&AD are from different countries. B. D&AD is the contest organizer
C. The SAIC team won the contest. D. James Lee probably comes from Seoul.
15.The designs are inspired by the following EXCEPT.
A. South Korea’s culture. B. South Korea's topography.
C. South Korea’s weather. D.South Korean’s life.

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。
Small colleges may offer big opportunities When you choose your dream college, size matters. 16 . Lots of students are unsure about a variety of factors when they consider which college might represent a good fit for them, but they believe they know exactly what they want when it comes to college size. It’s great to see students make a 180-degree turn after they've had the chance to visit some small colleges. Here are a few of the less-obvious reasons a smaller school might be a good fit:
l The professors actually do the teaching.
Most small colleges only teach undergraduate degrees. 17 , and more importantly, graduate students - many of whom have no interest in teaching - won’t be teaching any of your classes.
l More focused and direct feedback.
You’ve heard the expression “You’re just a number.” Think about the homework and tests that need to be graded in a large class with 450 students. 18 . But at small schools, class sizes are smaller, and professors will
have more time to read a student’s work.
l 19
Students at small schools are able to develop relationships with professors more easily, since there is a smaller amount of students. Most professors know their students’ names and count on them to take part in their research.
l 20
Since classes tend to be more student-centered at small schools, the homework are often more writing-based.
l Less red tape.
It’s just easier to get things done at a small school. Professors and administrators have more flexibility (灵活性),and there are fewer regulations. One of the biggest frustrations at large schools is that important classes become full quickly, forcing students to either take them over the summer or stay an extra semester.
A. Research chances.
B. Less challenging homework.
C. Development of stronger writing skills.
D. That means there aren't graduate students on campus.
E. The size of a school really can change your experience.
F. Students at small schools don't have to compete with their peers.
G. Teachers there don’t have much time to offer advice on every student’s piece of work.

Helping someone 39 face involves giving them a way to exit the situation with their dignity 40 . It involves creativity, patience, and sometimes looking the other way.
