| 阅读理解 Scientist Florence Wambugu works with farmers in Kenya, a country in East Africa. She helps them grow bigger and better crops. Wambugu is especially interested in finding simple ways to produce more food.  In the past ten years, Wambugu has spent much of her time studying sweet potatoes, which are an important food in her part of Kenya. A virus (病毒) kept attacking the plants. It stopped the sweet potatoes from growing well. Because of the virus, some farmers lost three quarters of their crops. Wambugu went to war against the virus. Her research for a way to save the sweet potatoes led to a lab in St. Louis, Missouri. The lab mainly works on genes (基因), the chemical "computer programs" found in the cells of living things. Genes tell a plant to produce pink flowers or an animal to grow black hair. Now scientists have found ways to move genes from one living thing to another. That process is called genetic engineering. Wambugu spent three years in the lab. As a result, she created a sweet potato plant that could fight off the virus. Wambugu tested her research in Kenya, and her plants produced wonderful sweet potatoes. That's just the beginning, Wambugu believes. Genetically modified (转基因的) foods, she thinks, could help farmers in poor countries grow badly needed crops, thus, fewer people will go hungry. 1. The text is written mainly to _______. A. tell us sweet potatoes are in danger of being attacked by a virus B. introduce Wambugu's contribution to genetic engineering C. introduce a new way of killing plant viruses D. tell how hard Wambugu worked in her lab for three years 2. What caused Wambugu to set up a lab in St. Louis, Missouri? A. Her wish to save sweet potatoes in Kenya. B. Her great interest in genetic engineering. C. Her love for sweet potatoes. D. Her interest in plant life. 3. The fourth paragraph mainly explains what ________ is. A.  a crop virusB. chemical technology C. a computer program D. genetic engineering 4. What is Wambugu's attitude toward "genetic engineering"? A. It will help more hungry people. B. It should be carefully used. C. It has more disadvantages than disadvantages. D. It is a too expensive technology at present. |
| 阅读理解 I had about 10 minutes to exercise before I had to pick up my two older daughters from school yesterday. It was a busier day than usual for me with a couple of meetings besides my regular work. Years ago, I would have put off my workout and would have left things for the next day. But since it was a busy day as well, I knew that I may not have all that much time either. So, I picked up my kettle-bell (哑铃) and went to town for 4 minutes. See, 4 minutes, if that's all you've got, is enough to give your body a great fat-burning exercise. How did I get a killer workout in 4 minutes? I used a training workout discovered 10 years ago by a Japanese Sports Scientist called a TABATA. It includes 20-second periods of warm-up, followed by 10-second periods of rest and 4-minute straight exercise. How is a 4-minute exercise able to burn fat? It all depends on the quality of work you do. Not on the quantity. Here's how I did it yesterday. You should never forget your warm-up. A TABATA workout is 20 seconds of 2-arm Kettle-bell swings, 10 seconds rest, 20 seconds push-ups, and 10 seconds rest. You should do those 4 rounds. That's it. I was done in a total time of 8 minutes by the time and when I got to school my heart was still pumping pretty hard. A healthy body is needed for studying and working, and efficiency (效率) is the key to building a great body in the least amount (数量) of time possible and you can't get more efficient than a 4-minute workout. 1. We can learn from the passage that the author ______. A. is busy with his work B. has a weak body now C. has two children in all D. is a manager in a film 2. The underlined phrase "went to town" in Paragraph 2 means "_______". A. put off doing something B. went to a very small city C. did something with interest D. hated to do something 3. What is the most important thing in taking  exercise according to the author?A. The goal B. the quality C. The quantity D. The method |

| 阅读理解 One of the best-loved American writers was William Sydney Porter, or O.Henry. From 1893 he lived with his family in a house in Austin, Texas, which is now a museum. Visitors to Austin can see the house. It was saved from destruction (破坏) and turned into a museum in1934. The museum is a good way to learn about the interesting life of the American writer. William Porter rented this house in Austin and lived there with his wife Athol and daughter Margaret for about two years. Many objects in the museum belonged to the Porters. Others did not. An important piece in the room is the original photograph over here. It was taken there in the house about 1895. The piano there goes back to the 1860s. His wife took lessons on it when she first moved to Austin. Porter did not star  t his career as a successful writer. He worked at a farm, land office and bank. He also loved words and writing. The museu  m has a special proof of Porter's love of language --- his dictionary. It is said that he had read every word in that dictionary. Later William Porter was forced to leave Austin because he was charged with financial wrongdoing at the bank and lost his job. Because he was afraid of a trail (审判), he left the country secretly. But he returned because his wife was dying. After her death, he faced the trial and became a criminal. He served three and a ha  lf years in a prison in Ohio.William Porter would keep his time in prison a secret. But there was one good thing about it. It provided him with time to write. By the time he was freed, he had published 14 stories and became well known as O.Henry. Porter later moved to New York City and found great success there. He published over 180 stories in the last eight years of his life. 1. O.Henry's house in Austin has been well kept up till now so that ____. A. Americans can explore their history B more visitors will be attracted to Austin C. visitors can learn about O.Henry's life D. it can show the way of life in the 1860s 2. What do we know about the piano in the house? A. It was hated by Porter's daughter. B. It has a long history of about 150 years. C. Porter's wife gave music lessons on it. D. Porter usually created music on it. 3. How does the museum prove (证明) Porter was fond of language? A. With a dictionary he used. B. With the records they keep. C. Using the books they wrote. D. Using the photograph they keep. 4. Why did Porter escape from Austin? A. He didn't want to lose his job. B. He didn't want to make trouble. C. He meant to save his wife's life. D. He was charged with a crime. 5. From the last two paragraphs we know that _______. A. Porter became famous suddenly B. Porter spent his time in prison writing C.
