undergraduate(大学本科生), and they were laboratory partners. however, they didnt get along well at first.isabella lugoski looked back on the past, “i walked into the physical chemistry laboratory and theres a young man in the desk next to mine with his equipment all set up running his experiment. i dont think i was very polite about my question. i asked him how he got there early and had everything all set up. he didnt like that. so we didnt talk to each other for a while.their relationship got going as they competed for the top grade in that course and they started to build connection because both of them were interested in chemistry. they married in 1942. by 1946, both of the karies had earned doctorates in physical chemistry, and, after a period of time at the university of chicago working on the manhattan project, moved to washington dc to join the us naval research laboratory.each specialized in a different aspect of x-ray crystallography(晶体学): jerome focused on developing equations(方程式) that could determine how atoms(原子) were arranged inside complex molecules, while isabella ran practical experiments to test how well the equations worked. working together, they created what is now called the direct method for determining molecular structures(分子结构), which has allowed scientists to effectively study and copycomplex organic molecules to continue further study.jerome karie was awarded the nobel prize for chemistry in 1985. although he was disappointed that the nobel committee had ignored isabellas contribution to that work, she was unfazed. at

more thoughtful person as you learn to connect with the various characters.but theres more.a new study discovered that reading more than 3.5 hours per week actually increased a persons lifespan(寿命) by 23 percentabout 12 years for the people involved in the study.the study was led by a group of researchers at yale university.it looked at 3,635 people, both men and women but all older than 50.the researchers divided them into three categories：those who didnt read books; those who read up to 3.5 hours a week; those who read more than 3.5 hours a week.after the researchers adjusted for factors like education, health and income, the data showed that, on average, those who read about 3.5 hours a week were 17 percent less likely to die.in addition，the study examined people who read newspapers and magazines and found that they were 11 percent less likely to die than nonreaders, but only if they spent more than seven hours reading each week.that may be due to the different forms of these items.when people read newspapers or magazines, they tend to skim the material rather than read it fully.avnibavishi, the studys leader, said, “we believe people need to know, learn and understand more things when they are reading books, because theyre longer and there are more characters, more plots to follow, and more connections to make.”from all of this, the authors concluded that, as with a healthy diet and exercise, books appear to promote a “significant survival advantage”clearly, there is a need for more study.were certain that book lovers all around the world will be glad to provide the data needed to make further conclusions.23what can we learn from the first paragraph?aa few people think that reading can help them relax.breading can make a person more sensitive.creading

themselvesdlooking for a fun earth day activity? you may want to try plogging, or picking up litter while jogging. strange as it may sound, the new “sport is becoming popular with runners worldwide? many of whom are posting photos of themselves and friends holding bags of trash on social media.plogging is the idea of erik alstrom. in 2016, after moving to stockholm in northern sweden, alstrom showed concern over the amount of trash on the road during his daily bike ride to work. thus, he began plogging during his daily runs.other joggers soon joined alstrom, and the activity became so popular that official “plogging events started all across sweden. as plogging became popular on social media, the new “sport began to spread beyond sweden, first to other european countries and then worldwide.the official online “plogga group now includes members from over 40 countries, all the way from united states cities like ohio to thailand and ecuador. many school running clubs are also getting in on the action to encourage people, staging competitions that reward the runners with the heaviest trash bags.as it turns out, plogging is not only good for the environment but also a healthy way to exercise. according to swedish fitness app lifesun, an average person burns about 288 calories while plogging for half an hour. this is about 50 calories more than he/she would burn when just jogging. additionally, the constant squatting（蹲）to pick up litter increases the ploggers flexibility, while lugging（费力地拖）around the increasingly heavy garbage bags helps strengthen his/her arm muscles.on this earth day, be sure to put on your running shoes, carry a trash bag or two, and go plogging. or better still, start a plogging team at school, or around your neighborhood, and make every day earth day!27. why did erik alstrom decide to pick up litter while running?a. he wanted to clear out a path to ride his bike.b. he was concerned about the trash on the road.c. he was fond of exercising on his way to work.d. he dreamed to become popular across sweden.28. how do school running clubs support the new “sport”？a. they post photos of official events online.b. they explain what plogging means on stage.c. they compete with one another for members.d. they hold competitions to attract people to plog.29. why is swedish fitness app lifesun mentioned in paragraph 5?a. to show that plogging is of benefit to health.b. to say that plogging is environment-friendly.c. to offer the approaches to exercising properly.d. to tell joggers to carry heavy bags to work out.30. what is the best title for the text?a. plogging: a strange but new “sport for runnersb. what we should do to reduce the amount of litterc. running is really helpful to environmental protectiond. plogging: a fun activity for earth day and every day 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)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。different culturesthe cultures of the east and the west really distinguish(区分) themselves from each other a lot. 31.the origin of the eastern culture is mainly from two countries: china and india. both of the two cultures are developed by rivers the yellow river in china and the indus river in india. 32 when the two mother rivers gave birth to the eastern culture，another famous culture was brought up on the mesopotamian plain（美索不达米亚平原）一the mesopotamian civilization. this civilization later on developed into the cultures of ancient rome and ancient greek.33. like the chinese culture，the european culture also crossed waters. when the british settled down in america，their culture went with them over the atlantic ocean. so the american culture doesnt distinguish itself from the european culture a lot.34 take the language system for example. in the east，most languages belong to the pictographic language while the western languages are mostly based on the latin system. other causes like human race differences count as well. but whats more，due to the far distance and the steep areas between the east and the west，the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. so they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference（干预）from the other. the differences are everywhere. 35 but different cultures make the world in the 21st century more varied. the cultural gap should not be the obstacle to the civilization of human beings. it ought to be the motivation for our going farther.a. let us work together to keep a variety of cultures.b. one important thing is to learn about the others culture.c. and these two are well-known as the base of the european culture.d. this is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.e. they helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.f. they are obvious and affect peoples ways of thinking and their views of the world.g. at the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.第二部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。at just 18 years old, canberra student lochie ferrier has already conducted
