Here are their stories.Selma LagerlofSelma Lagerlof was a Swedish author and teacher. She published her first novel, Gosta Berlings Saga, at the age of 33. She was the first female writer to win the Nobel Prize in Literature which she was awarded in 1909. Additionally, she was the first female to be granted membership in the Swedish Academy.Gerty Theresa CoriGerty and her husband, Carl Cori, met in Prague and lived in Austria before immigrating to the United States in 1922, where the two medical doctors worked together at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in New York. In 1947, Gerty and Carl were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, making Gerty Cori the first woman to hold the honor.Maria Goeppert-MayerIn 1942, Maria Goeppert-Mayer joined the Manhattan Project. From there, she moved on to Los Alamos National Laboratory, then to Argonne National Laboratory, where Goeppert-Mayer developed the nuclear shell model. For this, she shared the 1963 Nobel Prize in Physics with J. Hans DJensen and Eugene Paul Wigner.Dorothy Crowfoot HodgkinDorothy Hodgkins mother encouraged her love of science as a child, and at age 18, she began studying chemistry at a women-only Oxford college. Her work on mapping vitamin B12 earned her the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1964.1、What is Selma Lagerlof noted for in history?AHer books.BHer medicine.CHer political works.DHer teaching skills.2、Who was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine?ASelma LagerlofBGerty Theresa Cori.CMaria Goeppert-MayerDDorothy Growfoot Hodgkin3、When did Dorothy Growfoot Hodgkin win her the Nobel Prize in Chemistry?AIn 1922.BIn 1942.CIn 1963.DIn 1964.22（8分）Not very long ago, the question would have seemed absurd. Now it is on the lips of respected scientists; MPs (议员) are beginning to talk of “a war on sugar,” and even Englands chief medical officer has said sugar may have to be, like the old enemy tobacco, taxed in order to protect the nations health.There came a time in the evolution of public attitudes to smoking, when the doctors had been shouting for long enough that the public was broadly aware of the risks and the only question left for Government was: what should we do about it?Some believe we are now at the same point in our attitudes to sugar. Otherslargely but not only representatives of the food and drink industrysay the entire debate has been skewed (歪曲) by those who spread stories deliberately to make people nervous.More or less everyone agrees that eating too much sugar is bad for you. There is also no doubt obesity is a growing problem which is putting a significant, avoidable burden on the NHS by increasing the rates of diabetes, heart disease and other long-term conditions.But to what extent is sugarrather than saturated fats, or salt, carbohydrates or proteins, or any of the other devils of modern dietsthe cause of obesity and how much should we worry about it?Yesterday, hopes of achieving anything resembling clarity (清楚) from the World Health Organisation (WHO) were confused once again, which, widely expected to reduce the recommended sugar intake by a half in new draft guidance, instead said it would continue to recommend that sugar make up no more than 10 percent of the energy we consume, while adding that cutting this to five percent would have “additional benefits”. The decision will now go out to public consultation.Simon Capewell, professor of the University of Liverpool, said that he suspected “dirty work” on the part of food and drinks companies might lie behind the WHOs less than resounding message.“The food industry say Government has no business interfering (介入) in families, we must protect personal choice,” Professor Capewell said. “We say there is no personal choice. At the moment, mother can walk into a supermarket with a choice of four tomato soupswith three, or four, or five teaspoons of sugar in them. She has a choice of thousands of ready mealswith five, or six, or even nine teaspoons of sugar in.”1、By referring to smoking the author indicates that .Asugar has just turned out to be as harmful as smokingBit is not easy for authorities to restrict or ban somethingCit is easy for people to see bad effects of somethingDpeople must see the disadvantages of sugar immediately2、WHO has changed its idea mainly because .Ait thinks the danger of sugar to health is overemphasizedBit finds it safe to take in as much sugar as people do nowCit believes certain amount of intake of sugar does us goodDit has been put under pressure by food and drinks companies3、When reporting the argument about sugar, the author seems to .Aremain objective Bstand by those against itCbelieve it harmless Dhold the view of “wait-and-see”4、Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage?AIs sugar the new evil? BHow much sugar do you take daily?CIs sugar to be taxed? DHow much do you know about sugar?23（8分）You cant walk into the office without Rihannas voice singing “work work work work work work” in your head. And that one line from Lady Gagas “Bad Romance” still makes you want to scream. These are commonly known as earworm songsthose sticky tunes that continue to play in your head. A recent study finds that more than 90% of adults report hearing earworm songs on a weekly basis.Fortunately, most people report earworm songs as pleasant. But others find them annoying or even maddening. “Some people are troubled by them to the point that it disturbs life,” says Elizabeth Hellmuth Margulis, a professor at the University of Arkansas who has studied earworm songs.Margulis says earworm songs tend to have some predictable characteristics. For one thing, they tend to small parts of a songnot the whole track. And “the songs youve heard recently also have the most possibility to get stuck in your memory,” she says.But sometimes something strange and unpredictable can also start a track paying in your head. “Once I was at the doctors office and saw a poster of a man who I thought looked like Gastona character from Beauty and the Beast,” Margulis recalls. A couple minutes passed, and she realized she couldnt get “Be Our Guest”, the song in the movie, out of her head, even though she hadnt thought of the tune in years. In that instance, she was able to identify her earworms trigger: the Gaston-looking man in the poster. “But the connections can be really unclear,” she says.Margulis points out that, in all of human history, recorded music is a very new phenomenon. She says some have inferred that earworm songs are also newthe unintended consequence of being able to hear the same song played everywhere in the same way over and over again. So far, the convincing explanation for why human beings experience earworm songs remains a mystery. But there are some well-established ways to cast off the earworm songs.“Finding a mentally demanding task and putting your mind on it usually shifts attention away from internal music. People tend to get earworms when performing tasks that dont require their full attentionstuff like doing the dishes,” Margulis says.Chewing gum can also help. When a song is stuck in our heads, its almost like were singing along with it. If you make your mouth do something elsechewing gum, eating a meal or talking with a friendthat can kick out the earworm.You could also face your enemy. By listening to the full track that includes the passage stuck in your head, you may find “closure” and relief.1、Which of the following is most likely to be an earworm song?AA song made up of simple words.BA song heard frequently these days.CA song sung by a most famous singer.DA song learned during ones childhood.2、What does the underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 4 mean?AType. BTune.CCause. DCharacteristic.3、We can infer that earworm songs may _.Aresult from modern technology Bbe experienced over mealsChelp regain lost memories Dhurt ones hearing4、What is mainly talked about in the last three paragraphs?AWhy we hear earworm songs. BWhere to find earworm songs.CWhen we hear earworm songs. DHow to get over earworm songs.24（8分）Its good to make mistakes，and here is why.First of all，mistakes are a clear sign that we are trying new things.Its always good to try new things because when we are trying new things，we are growing.If we never try anything new，how can we improve？The simple answer is，“We cant”Another good thing about mistakes is that when we are making them，we are learning.Consider thisEdison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb.When asked how it felt to fail that many times，he said that he had learned 10,000 things that didnt work.When we make a mistake，we are much closer to success.Because every time we make a mistake，we eliminate one of the things that keep us from success.But all this doesnt mean that we should go through life without considering the consequences of a mistake.Instead，when we try something new，we have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesnt work out the way we want it to，we will be in a position to try again.We all have limited resourcesin the form of time and moneyso we shouldnt blow them all on one approach to a problem.Its best that we realize it probably wont be perfect for the first time and allocate these resources appropriately so we can learn，make corrections，and try again.Only by accepting and using our mistakes in this way can we make significant advances in our lives.There is an old saying that goes，“If youre not making mistakes，youre not trying hard enough”So go forth and make mistakes.1、Which can be used to replace the underlined word“eliminate”in Paragraph 4?Amake up for Bget rid ofCaccept Dexpect2、What do we know from the fifth paragraph?AWe should ignore the possible consequences.BWe should accept the outcome willingly.CWe should make some limits for our next try.DWe should avoid making the same mistakes.3、What is the text mainly about?ADealing with mistakes.BMaking mistakes.CMaking progress.DBenefiting from mistakes.4、What may the writer suggest we say to ourselves when making a mistake?ANever mind，I tried my best.BGreat！Now I have learned something.CThis is a waste of time.DLook at this mess.I should just give up.25（10分）Castle Dale is a small town in central Utah. My grandpas farm is a few miles to the north. I grew up there. Milking a cow, feeding the chickens and cutting firewood were daily routines. Grandpa had me carrying a broom to do snow cleaning when it was actually taller than I was. This was the work kids like me learned to do at a young age.I was tall, very tall at a really young age. My unusual height caused people to look, ask questions, laugh, tease, and sometimes even challenge me to fight. I was teased cruelly as a kid. It wasnt fair, I knew, but that was just the way it was. Luckily, I was taught at a very young age a very i
