And the Chinese doctor claims that he has found an answer to the problems of aging.His solution is a herbal medicine to slow the process of aging.Dr. Shen Ziyin has been trained in Western medicine. At the same time he studied traditional Chinese medicine. And, he has been working for the past forty years to put together the best of both and find a cure for aging. He has taken a hint from the ancient Chinese medicine system called shen.According to Shen, it is the kidney (肾脏)which adjusts the functioning of the body as well as its aging process. It is responsible for the level of activity that the human bodies go through. Studies conducted by Dr. Shen show that herbal medicine based on the shen system slow the aging process, says a report in The Telegraph newspaper.We notice that when people grow old, they have reduced strength, loss of hair, backache, weakness in general, and wrinkles, among others. This happens because when people grow old, their bodies produce T-cells. These T-cells contain a particular substance called Fas. Fas makes the cells in the body destruct themselves.So the only way to slow down aging is to slow the production of T-cells in the body. This can happen if people eat low calorie food. Then the body is not active enough to produce extra T-cells. But, is going hungry all the time a good price to pay for staying young?This is where Dr. Shens herbal medicine comes in. But how effective it will be, only time can tell.24.How did Dr. Shen find the solution to the problem of aging?A.By studying Western medicine.B.By learning traditional Chinese medicine.C.By doing research on both Western and Chinese people.D.By combining both Western and Chinese medicine.25.What plays the most important role in keeping people young according to Shen?A. Medical treatment.B. Peoples good kidney.C. Level of peoples activity.D. Positive life attitude.26.The reason why people become old is that_.A.they become weaker and weakerB.their bodies are unable to fight diseasesC.they have reduced strength, loss of hairD.their bodies produce T-cells27.We can probably learn from the passage that.A.eating more low calorie food can allow people to keep youngB.the more Chinese herbal medicine people drink, the better for healthC.people should try to quicken the production of T-cells in the bodyD.Dr .Shens herbal medicine is very effectiveC (The New York Times, Oct.7) The 2019 Nobel Prize in physiology(生理学) or medicine was jointly awarded to three scientists William G. Kaelin Jr., Peter J. Ratcliffe and Gregg L. Semenza for their work on how cells sense and adapt to oxygen availability. The Nobel Assembly announced the prize at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm on Monday.Their work established the genetic mechanisms(机制) that allow cells to respond to changes in oxygen levels. The findings have implications(启示) for treating a variety of diseases.Why did they win?“Oxygen is the lifeblood of living organisms(生物体),” said Dr. George Daley, dean of Harvard Medical School. “Without oxygen, cells cant survive.” But too much or too little oxygen can be deadly. The three researchers tried to answer this question: How do cells regulate their responses?The investigators uncovered detailed genetic responses to changing oxygen levels that allow cells in the bodies of humans and other animals to sense and respond to fluctuations(波动), increasing and decreasing how much oxygen they receive.Why is the work important?The discoveries reveal the cellular mechanisms that control such things as adaptation to high altitudes and how cancer cells manage to hijack(攫取) oxygen. Randall Johnson, a member of the Nobel Assembly, described the work as a “textbook discovery” and said it would be something students would start learning at the most basic levels of biology education.“This is a basic aspect of how a cell works, and I think from that standpoint alone its a very exciting thing.” Johnson said.The research also has implications for treating various diseases in which oxygen is in short supply including anemia, heart attacks and strokes as well as for treatment of cancers that are fed by and seek out oxygen.28. This research has won the Nobel Prize mainly because _.A. there was no research of this kind in the pastB. oxygen is the lifeblood of living thingsC. it has uncovered how cells sense and respond to changes in oxygen levelsD. various diseases will be cured with the help of the findings of the research29. We can learn from the passage that _.A. The Nobel Prize was awarded to a physiologist on Monday in Sweden.B. Cancer cells manage to hijack oxygen and need oxygen to develop.C. The more oxygen there is in blood, the healthier a living body will be.D. The genetic mechanisms have been found that allow oxygen to adapt to cells.30. Which of the following can best explain the underlined word in the text?A. used for textbooksB. powerful and authoritativeC. typical as a perfect exampleD. basic and clear31. In which part of The New York Times can you find this article?A. EntertainmentB. CultureC. TechnologyD. ScienceDHi, Im Neil Harbisso. I come from a place where the sky is always grey, where flowers are always grey, and where television is still in black and white.I actually come from a world where color doesnt exist. I was born with achromatopsia. I was born completely color-blind. So Ive never seen color, and dont know what it looks like. But since the age of 21, I can hear color thanks to a magic electronic eye called “eyeborg”: a color sensor between my eyes connected to a chip(芯片) installed at the back of my head that transforms color frequencies into sound frequencies that I hear through my bone.Ive had the electronic eye permanently attached to my head and Ive been listening to colors nonstop since 2004. So I find it completely normal now to hear colors all the time. Since I started to hear color, my life has changed significantly. Art galleries have become concert halls. I can hear a Picasso. And supermarkets have become like night clubs. I love how they sound.My sense of beauty has changed. Someone might look very beautiful but sound terrible, and someone might sound very harmonious but look awful. So I find it really exciting to create sound portraits(画像) of people. Instead of drawing the shape of someones face I write down the different notes I hear when I look at them, and then I send them an mp3 of their face. Each face sounds different. I can even give face concerts now, concerts where I play the audiences faces. The good thing about doing this is that if the concert doesnt sound good, its their fault.I also found out that things I thought were colorless are not colorless at all. Cities are not grey. Lisbon is yellow turquoise(宝石绿); London is very golden redand humans are not black and white. Human skins range from light shades of orange to very dark shades of orange. We are all orange.If we extend our senses, we will consequently extend our knowledge. 32. We can infer from the article that people with achromatopsia _.A. suffer from blindness B. have a good sense of colorsC. are not able to see colors D. like to go to concert halls and supermarkets33. What does the author mean by saying “Art galleries have become concert halls”?A. Art galleries have been changed into various sounds.B. Works at the art galleries are created by great musicians.C. Art galleries are filled with noisy people.D. The author now likes art galleries as much as concert halls.34. Which of the following statements is NOT correct?A. Neil developed a rare disease in his childhood.B. The eyeborg produces sounds based on shades of colors.C. Neil will use the eyeborg for the rest of his life.D. In Neils mind, all people are orange.35. What is the best title for the passage?A. Eyeborg a real life saver.B. I listen to color.C. Sense the world.D. Art galleries turned into concert hall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Last summer over 12,000 fans were at Wembley Arena in London, shouting and cheering. Thousands more were watching online. 36 It was esports(电子竞技), or competitive computer gaming.Millions of people in the UK play computer games for fun. Some of them have become professional gamers, playing games as their full-time job. 37 They practice for ten or more hours a day, five or six days a week. They do exercises like typing something and trying to type it faster and faster. They also study videos of other players and plan ways to beat them. 38 Are players athletes? Some say no. Esports players dont need to run, jump, throw or do big physical actions. At the moment, the UK government classifies esports as kinds of games, not as sports.But others say yes: esports are sports. Players do need some physical skills, especially hand-eye coordination, reflexes, accuracy and timing. If darts, snooker and shooting are classified as sports, then perhaps esports should be too. 39 And they will be an official medal sport in the Asian Games starting from 2022. Next step: the Olympics?For many esports fans and players, though, the most important thing is that esports are growing in popularity and importance. 40 A. But are esports really sports?B.
