i thought it was kind of strange to have food in the utility room. but, one look from my mother5 me from opening the door to glance inside.one year, channel 4 reported that hurricane dora was6 for the northern part of florida. soon the storm got 7 and the wind blew. then, the tall pine trees started to sway. and, by“sway”, i meant “8 over or crash down on anything in their way”. we were lucky, as the9 went other directions and didnt take our power out.however, when my mother started cooking, the power was out.10 i figured it was time to crack open that white cabinet. but, dad thought it was time to11 up the charcoal grill outside where it was raining and windy. to this day, i never12 amans love for his grill.our power came back for a while. so, my mother began cooking everything she could and13 it away, to the neighbors, to friends without power, to anyone who was14 up. i was hoping that the fried chicken was going to find its way to our 15. but, it didnt. and, just as the last of the food was sent out and she began to work on our dinner, yes, we lost our16 . it was time for 20 minutes eggs on the grill.oh, the white metal cabinet. no. we never17 it. we werent “that bad off”

and grow, reaching toward the top of physical vitality (energy). after we grow up, however, the body begins a process of gradually wearing out. a new awareness of physical fitness may help lengthen our years of health and vitality, yet nothing we do will work to stop the unavoidable force of aging. most of the changes of aging take place deep inside the body. the lungs become less able to take in oxygen. powerful muscles gradually lose their strength. the heart loses power and pumps less blood. bones grow easier to break. finally, we meet a stress, a stress that is greater than our physical resistance. often, it is only a minor accident or chance infection (a disease caused by virus), but this time, it brings life to an end. in 1932, a classic experiment nearly doubled the lifetime of rats, simply by cutting back the calories (unit for measuring the energy value of food)in their diet. the reason for the effect was then unknown. today, at the university of california at berkley, dr. paul seagle has also greatly lengthened the normal lifetime of rats. the result was achieved through a special protein (蛋白质)limited diet, which had a great effect on the chemistry of the brain. seagle showed that within the brain, specific chemicals control many of the signals that influence aging. by changing that chemical balance, the clock of aging can be reset. for the first time, the mystery (something that is difficult to understand or to explain)of why we age is being seriously challenged. scientists in many fields are now making striking and far-reaching discoveries. an average lifetime lasts 75 years, yet in each of us lies a potential for a longer life. if we could keep the vitality and resistance to disease that we have at twenty, we would live for 800 years. 1. what does the underlined word “it”refer to? a. physical vitality.b. stress.c. aging.d. physical resistance. 2. the author believes the following except that _.a. humans life pattern is predictableb. physical fitness cant stop the force of agingc. humans lifetime will last longer than 75 yearsd. all of the changes of aging take place deep inside the body3. how did dr paul seagle lengthen the lifetime of rats in his experiment? a. by limiting the protein in their diet. b. by cutting the calories in their diet. c. by resetting their clock of aging. d. by keeping their physical fitness. 4. what is probably the best title for the article? a. two great experiments. b. the mystery of human life. c. ways to lengthen human life. d. the breakthrough in the study of aging. 【参考答案】14、bdad 阅读理解 with only about 1,000 pandas left in the world, china is desperately trying to clone the animal and save these in a dangerous situation. thats a move similar to what a texas a & m university researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called noahs ark.noahs ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎), semen and dna of these animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. if certain species should become extinct, dr. duane kraemer, a professor in texas a & ms college of veterinary, medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.it is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds and reptiles will probably become extinct in over 100 years. the panda, native only to china, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.this week, chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a japanese white rabbit. they are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.the entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.the nuclear transfer of one species to another is not easy, but the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem, kraemer believes. they will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby). it takes a long time and its difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. they are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort, adds kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the project at texas a&m, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog.they are trying to do something thats never been done, and this is very similar to our work in noahs ark. were both trying to save animals that face extinction. i certainly appreciate their effort and theres a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. the cooperation between us is very much needed.1. the final aim of noahs ark project is to_. .a. make efforts to clone the endangered pandas b. save endangered animals from dying outc. collect dna of endangered animals to study d. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another答案解析：答案为b。本题为细节题。由第二段内容可知，“诺亚方舟”项目的目的在于收集濒临灭绝的动物的卵子、胚胎、精子和dna，并用液体氮将它们储存起来。如果某些物种灭绝了，将会有足够的基础建设材料再造这些物种。最后一段第二句 “were both trying to save animals that face extinction.”又一次提到了这个项目的目的，即拯救濒临灭绝的物种。故答案为b。2. according to professor kraemer, _.a. the long time lasting cloning research could be successful.b. the eggs transfers immediately result in having a baby.c. the lack of nuclear transfer could be a major problem to have new pandas.d. if species should die out, basic building blocks would heal them.答案解析：答案为a。本题为推理题。由倒数第二段第一句话 “but the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem”可知，c选项错误。由该段第二句话 “they will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby).”可知，b选项错误。由该段第三句话 “it takes a long time and its difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works.”可知，这（细胞核移植）需要很长时间，而且难度很大，但是一旦成功，便会成为开创性的科学。言外之意就是长期的克隆研究技术或许能成功。故a选项正确。第二段提到 “if certain species should become extinct, there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.”，而 d选项 “如果物种灭绝，基础建设材料将治愈他们”夸大了基础建设材料的作用，与原文不符，故错误。3. the best title for the passage may be_.a. chinas success in pandas cloningb. helping ways to avoid extinctionc. exploring the possibility to clone pandas d. the practice in noahs ark答案解析：答案为c。本文为新闻报导类文章，第一段点出了文章的中心，中国在努力克隆濒临灭绝的大熊猫，从第二段起具体介绍duane kraemer对中国科学家克隆大熊猫的做法的评价，并与美国科学家正在从事的“诺亚方舟” 项目做了对比。文章最后一段表达了他们对中国同行所做的工作的高度评价。故最佳标题为c “探索克隆大熊猫的可能性”。4. from the passage we know that_.a. kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a pandab. scientists try to implant a pandas egg into a rabbitc. kraemer will work with chinese scientists in clone researchesd. about two thousand species are to die out in a century答案解析：答案为d。本题为细节题。由第三段第一句话 “it is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds and reptiles will probably become extinct in over 100 years.”可知，d选项正确。a选项明显错误；由第四段第一句话 “this week, chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a japanese white rabbit.”可知，b选项错误。由最后一段最后一句话 “the cooperation between us is very much needed.” 可知，professor kraemer是说有必要合作，而不是将会与中国科学家一起致力于克隆研究， c选项与此表达不符，故不选。阅读理解-atelepathy is the ability to communicate without the use of the five senses.its an instinct which can be woken up in times of emergency or need. when we feel that something is happening or about to happen by instinct, were using resources wihtin the unconscious mind. when the resources of two persons unconscious minds think link together into the same frequency. we call it telepathy. we can either send or receive telepathy. if you know who is calling before you answer the ringing phone, you are probably a good receiver. if you think of a person, and they call you, you are most likely better at sending.you can easily put your abilities to the test. think of somebody and will them to contact you. be patient. the other person may not be a good receiver, but they should contact you much earlier than would normally be expected. or whenever the phone rings, try feeling whos contacting you. dont guess, try to feel the vibrations. however, if neither of these work for you, that doesnt mean that you are not capable of telepathy. as mentioned earlier, telepathy is most likely to turn up in case of emergency. telepathic dreams often contain telepathic messages. two people may both dream of the other, and find that their dreams have a clear connection. these people are probably linking to each others uncounscious mind.telepathy&relationships the more people spend time together, the more likely they are to be able to link up to the others mind, especially when separated.there are two reasons for this. one is that they understand the others, mind through time spent together；the other is that there is usually a strong desire to communicate. a mother will often sense that her child is in danger. this is due to the child desperately wanting his/her mother, knowing that this is the person who would always want to be there for them, and the mothers deep desire to protect her child from harm. 1. when does telepathy occur? a. it occurs when one senses that a close friend of his/her is in danger. b. it occurs when one has very good five senses. c. it occurs when one wants to call his/her best friend. d. it occurs when one doesnt know a stranger. 答案解析：答案为a。本题为推理题。由第一段第一、二句话 “telepathy is the ability to communicate without the use of the five senses.its an instinct which can be woken up in times of emergency or need.” 可知，心灵感应不依靠五官感
