A
It’s impossible to determine how many people would have lost their lives without the contribution of African-American inventor Dr Charles Drew.
Charles Drew was born on June 3, 1904, in Washington, DC. His early interest was in education, but he was also an outstanding athlete. While in college, he was awarded as the man who contributed the most to sports during his four years in school. Drew’s sister Elsie suffered from tuberculosis(肺结核) and died in 1920. Her death influenced his decision to study medicine.
After becoming a doctor and working as a college instructor, Drew went to Columbia University, where he earned his Doctor of Medical Science degree. During this time he became involved in research on blood and blood transfusions (输血).
At Columbia, he wrote a paper on “banked blood”, in which he described a technique he developed for the long-term preservation of blood plasma (血浆). Before his discovery, blood could not be stored for more than two days because of the rapid breakdown of red blood cells. Drew had discovered that by separating the plasma from the whole blood and then refrigerating(冷冻) them separately, they could be combined a week later for a blood transfusion. Drew became the first African American to receive a PhD in medical science.
After World War II broke out, Drew was called upon to put his techniques into practice. He was named a project director for the American Red Cross but soon quit his post after the government issued an order that blood taken from white donors(献血者) should be
C. Give her some advice.
separated from that of black donors.
On April 1, 1950, after he attended the annual free clinic at the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, he and other three physicians decided to drive back home. As he was tired from spending the night before in the operating room, he lost control of his car. Drew was badly injured and was taken to Alamance General Hospital in Burlington, North Carolina. He was pronounced dead half an hour after he first received medical attention. Drew’s funeral was held on April 5, 1950, at the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church in Washington, DC.
But contrary to popular legend, he was not refused a blood transfusion by an all-white hospital. He indeed received a transfusion but was beyond the help of the physicians attending to him. As Dr. John Ford, one of the doctors who survived the accident, later explained, “We all received the very best of care. The fact that he was a Black did not in any way limit the care that was given to him.” Over the years, Drew has been considered one of the most honored figures in the medical field.
21. According to the passage, _________ might have contributed to the invention of blood banks.
A. the combination of blood cells B. the rapid breakdown of red blood cells
C. the development of refrigerating technique
D. the technique of separating plasma from the whole blood
22. By saying “contrary to the popular legend” in the last paragraph, the writer __________.
A. can’t understand the doctors’ decision B. indicates his concern about the legend
C. feels disappointed with the all-white hospital D. means what the doctors did was out of expectation 23. What conclusion can we draw from the passage? A. Charles Drew died in a medical accident.
B. African Americans were still treated unfairly in the 1940s. C. Charles Drew was the first African American to receive a PhD.
D. Physicians refused to give Charles Drew medical attention because he was a black.
24. In which section of a magazine can we most probably find the passage? A.
People
B.
Health
C.
Culture D. Entertainment
B
Reading, unlike speaking, is a young activity to some degree. Humans have been speaking in some form for hundreds of thousands of years; we are born with the ability to acquire speech. The earliest writing, however, came only 6,000 years ago, and every act of reading remains a version of what my son is learning: identifying letters and words, use much the same of brain as we use to identify trees, cars, animals and telephone boxes.
It's not only letters and words that we process as objects. Texts themselves, so far as our brain is concerned, are physical landscapes. So it is not surprising that we respond differently to words printed on a page compared to words appearing on a screen. For her new book, Words Onscreen: The Fate Of Reading in a Digital World, professor Naomi Baron conducted a survey of reading preference among over 300 universities across the world. When given a choice between media ranging from printouts(打印出来的资料) to smart phones, laptops, desktops and e-readers, 92% of the respondents （回答者）replied that it was hard copy that best allowed them to concentrate（集中注意力）.
This isn't a result likely to surprise many editors, or anyone else who works closely with text. While writing this article, I gathered my thoughts through a version of the same principle(原则): having collected and checked my notes on screen, I printed said notes, write all over the resulting printout, argued with myself in the margins, placed marks next to key points and then draw my own clear conclusion.
Across three experiments in 2013, researchers Pam Mueller and Daniel Oppenheimer compared the effectiveness of students taking hand-notes vs. typing onto laptops. Their conclusion（结论）: the relative slowness of writing by hand demands heavier mental lifting, forcing students to sum up rather than to quote, therefore tending to increase the students ability of understanding, applying, and memorizing.
In other words, reading from paper is good--at least as far as the brain is concerned. Moreover, the handwriting itself can be significant. In a 2012 study at Indiana University, professor Karin James tested five-year-old children who didn't know how to read or write
by asking them to reproduce a letter or a shape in one of the three ways: typed on to the computer, drawn on a blank sheet, or copied over dotted lines. When the children were drawing freehand, their brain had the similar activities to adults' reading and writing. The other two methods showed no such brain activities. Similar effects have been found in other tests, suggesting not only a close link between reading and writing, but that the experience of reading itself differs between letters learned through handwriting and those learned through typing. A conclusion was drawn that handwriting tends to lift up our brain more than the placeless, weightless scrolling of words on screen.
However, there is also a scientific recognition that many of the screen's advantages----search, boundless and bottomless capacity（容量）, links and leaps and seamless navigation-----are either unhelpful or destructive when it comes to certain kinds of reading and writing.
Above all, it seems to me, we must give up the concept that there is only one way of reading, or that technology and paper can never be put together. We're lucky enough to have more opportunities to make our choice.
25. According to the passage, reading from paper does not mean reading from ______. A. hard copy B. printouts C. iPhone D. journals 26. Reading from paper is more helpful for concentrating because _________. A. it is a young activity to a degree
B. it involves more brain activities than its opponents C. it demands more physical lifting D. it has boundless and bottomless search capacity
27. The 2012 study at Indiana in Paragraph 6 was intended to . A. deny the three experiments by Pam Mueller and Daniel Oppenheimer B. offer a more convincing evidence of the writer's point of view C. show how powerful our children's reading capacity can be D. support the survey conducted by professor Naomi Baron
28. The writer's attitude towards handwriting can be best described as . A. tolerant B. negative C. neutral D. positive
C
He was driving home one evening, on a country road. Work, in this small community, was as slow as his broken Pontiac.
But he never quit looking. Since the factory closed, he’d been unemployed. And with winter approaching, the cold days had finally hit home. It was a lonely road. Very few people had a reason to be on it, unless they were leaving. Most of his friends had left. But he stayed on. After all, he had his root here.
It was getting dark, and snow was coming down. He’d better get a move on. Suddenly he saw an old lady on the roadside and obviously needed help.
So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. She was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He looked poor, hungry, and ... dangerous.
He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He said, “I’m here to help you, Ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Joe.” The car had a flat tire. Joe crawled under the car and soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.
As he was turning the screws（螺丝），she rolled down her window and began talking to him and said she couldn’t thank him enough for coming to her aid.
She asked him how much she owed him. Any amount would have been alright with her. She had already imagined all the terrible things that could have happened had he not stopped. Joe never thought twice about the money. This was simply helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty who had lent him a hand before.
He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Joe added “… and think of me.”
A few miles down the road the lady saw a small café. She went in to grab a bite to eat, and take the chill off. It was a dirty-looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas pumps. The whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair.
She had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn’t erase.
The lady noticed that the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude.
The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger. Then she remembered Joe. After the lady finished her meal, she handed the waitress a $100 bill. When the waitress came back with the change, she found the lady was gone and something written on a napkin.
Reading the note, there were tears in her eyes. It said, “You owe me nothing. I’ve been there too. Someone once helped me out, like I’m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, don’t let the chain of love end with you.”
That night when she got home from work, she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written.
With the baby due soon, life would be harder. She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft, “Everything’s gonna be alright; I love you, Joe.”
29. We can know from the first four paragraphs that Joe . A. was living a tough life without a job future
C. was eager to leave where he lived now D. usually gave a bad impression on others
30. By saying “He had lived his whole life that way” in Paragraph 8, the author tries to convey the message that Joe . A. expected to be remembered for his kindness
B. struggled for a living, depending a lot on other people C. was always changing tires for strangers free of charge
D. often offered a helping hand without expecting anything in return 31. The old lady left the change, mainly wishing to .
A. impress the waitress with her generosity B. show pity to the woman expecting a baby
C. bring love forward by helping those in need D. express thanks for the waitress’ quality service
B. was hopeless about his job and
32. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Chain of Love C. Road of Hope
B. Struggle of Life
D. Act of Kindness

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，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What is the best way to catch someone who is telling a lie?
For a long time, the traditional method of identifying liars was to watch their body language, including facial expressions.
According to a new study, body language cannot be trusted. Talking, it seems, is the best way to smoke out a liar. That is what researchers in the United Kingdom found out recently. Their investigation took place at one place where lying can get you into big trouble ----- an airport.
33._______________ And it only works, seemingly, be chance. In the conversational CCE method, security agents just talk with passengers. They ask about informal things as you would in a normal conversation. While talking, the agents might ask questions about topics that are seemingly unrelated.
Then the agent observes if the person becomes more vague or irregular.
34. _______________ In an article on the APA website, Ormerod says that for actual passengers, they are “just chatting about themselves. It shouldn’t feel like an interrogation.”
Here are four ways of catching a liar. 1. Use open-ended questions
These are the opposite of “Yes” and ‘\"No” questions. Open-ended questions force the person to stretch the story of their lies until they are caught in their own net of lies. 2. Use the element of surprise
35._____________ Ask questions that are surprising or off-topic. This will make it harder for them to keep lying. Or better still ask them to re-tell an event backwards in time, going from the most recent event to the earliest.
3. Look for small details that do not add up or, in other words, make sense.
Ask them details about their stories and look for facts that seem in disagreement with each other. But do not let them know you know. 36._________________ 4. Watch for changes in confidence and speaking styles
Liars will often change their speaking style when they are questioned. For example, when they feel in control they may be very talkative. 37._______________
A. The agents talking with the passengers were 20 times more likely to catch the liars. B. The British government partly financed this study. C. But if they feel they are losing much at all.
D. What they also observe is their way of speaking changes.
E. Using body languages and facial expresses to catch someone in a lie is really hard. F. Just let them dig themselves deeper into a hole. G. Ask questions they may not think you are going to ask. 第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节，满分40分）

I felt like a good mother on that summer morning. I'd 38 up early, made a picnic lunch, 39 my three-and five-year-old daughters into the car, driven to my friend's house, packed her and her 40 into the car, and driven the hour and a half to the shore where we 41 our towels on the sands by 10 a.m.
Soon the girls began running. About 50 yards from us, a man, maybe 42 his late 50s, was fishing. The girls stood next to him and watched with their mouths open 43 he cast the lines. He smiled at them. They all ran back to us except my three-year-old Drew, who, 44 , just seated herself next to the white bucket where the man was 45 planning to put the fish he caught.
However, suddenly a 46 came to my mind. Is it dangerous for Drew to stay there with the stranger? Good moms should also teach daughters that the world is dangerous. Then, I watched them like there was a hidden 47 in the lifeguard chair filming the man as America's Most Wanted. Every few minutes, I looked to my five-year-old to make sure she hadn't been 48 out to sea, then back to Drew to make sure there was no 49 between
her and the stranger.
When I looked at Drew again, she had started 50 with the man. She was probably telling him where we lived and how her father was away on 51 . He nodded. She kept talking. He nodded again, then they laughed.
A few seconds later, she ran back to us, with a toy fish in her hand. It must have been something 52 he used for bait. The three other girls were 53 , so they didn't try to hide how eager they were to have 54 .
Just when I was at a loss, there he was: the man, standing right next to us. He was holding three more toy fish. He handed them to each of the girls. By their 55 , I realized that he was 56 a warm-hearted man, meaning no harm at all.
“Thank you\ I said, realizing that yes, there is evil in this world...but there is also good, and 57 in strangers, and lessons for mothers to learn that only three-year-olds could teach them.

When it comes to the thing that I treasure most, jumping into my mind is a book Three days to see. It was a gift from mother, who is always willing to help me. There was a time when I was addicted to online games. Because of that, my study suffered a lot. Instead of scolding
me, Mother gave me a book and asked me to read it. Hardly had I finished a few pages when I was greatly attracted by Helen Keller. Despite her disability, she didn’t abandon hope and achieved a lot. It was her determination and courage that made her a huge success. When I finished reading the book, Mother had a talk with me. “You can also accomplish what Helen Keller did.” Mother’s words ring in my ears whenever I see the book, inspiring me to face the challenge in life.
