He was not very clever, but Darwin was good at doing the things that interested him. His father was a doctor, soDarwinwas sent to Edinburgh to study medicine, and was planned to follow a medical career. But Charles found the lectures boring. Then his father sent him to Cambridge University to study to be a priest. While at Cambridge, Darwins interest in zoology and geography grew. Later he got a letter from Robert FitzRoy who was planning to make a voyage around the world on a ship, the Beagle. He wanted a naturalist to join the ship, and Darwin was recommended. That voyage was the start of Darwins great life. As the Beagle sailed around the world,Darwinbegan to wonder how life had developed on earth. He began to observe everything. After he was home, he set to work, getting his collection in order. His first great work The Zoology of the Beagle was well received, but he was slow to make public his ideas on the origin of life. LaterDarwin and Wallace, another naturalist who had the same opinions as Darwin, produced a paper together. Darwins great book On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection(物种起源) appeared. It attracted a storm. People thought that Darwin was saying they were descended from monkeys. What a shameful idea! Although most scientists agreed that Darwin was right, the Church was still so strong that Darwin never received any honors for his work. Afterwards, he published another great work, The Descent of Man. His health grew worse, but he still worked. “When I have to give up observation, I shall die,” he said. He was still working on 17, April, 1882. He was dead two days later.24. Why did Darwins father sent him to Edinburgh ?A. To make him like natural history.B. To let him change his hobbies.C. To make him become a doctor.D. To have him give up his collection.25. According to the passage, Charles Darwins whole life was changed by _.A. his study at Cambridge UniversityB. the voyage of the BeagleC. the naturalists at CambridgeD. his collection of coins26.

Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Charles Darwins ideasB. Father of modern biology : Charles DarwinC. Charles Darwins works D. The greatest scientist: Charles DarwinCBody language is one of the most powerful means of communication, often even more powerful than spoken language. It is said that our body movements communicate about 50 percent of what we really mean while words only express 7 percent. So, while your mouth is closed, your body is just saying.Arms. How you hold your arms shows how open and receptive you are to people youmeet. If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes your way. Outgoing people generally use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to their bodies. If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show youre unhappy!Head. When you want to appear confident, keep your head level. If you are a monitor in class, you can also take on this position when you want your words to be taken seriously. However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little.Legs. Your legs tend to move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies. If you are at interviews, try to keep them still!Posture. A good posture makes you feel better about yourself. If you are feeling down, you normally dont sit straight, with your shoulders inwards. This makes breathing more difficult, which can make you feel nervous or uncomfortable.Mouth. When you are thinking, you often purse(噘嘴) your lips. You might also use this position to hold back an angry comment you dont wish to show. However, it will probably still be noticed, and people will know youre not pleased. Face. When you lie, you might put on a false face. But that expression would crack briefly, allowing displays of true emotions such as happiness, sadness, disgust and fear to come through.28.What does it suggest when someone is keeping his arms behind his back?A. He is angry. B. He is cool. C. He is not afraid. D. He is outgoing. 29.What body language should you use if you want to appear confident?A. Keep your head level. B. Move your head a little. C. Cross your arms. D. Move your arms a lot.30. Which of the following movements shows someone is nervous?A. Not sitting straight with the shoulders inwards.B. Keeping the arms to the sides of the body.C. Moving around a lot more than normal.D. Having the lips pursed to hold back an angry comment.31. What can we infer from the passage?A. Its not polite to use body language in formal communication.B. Body language can express more meanings than words do in communication.C. Different people in different countries must have the same understanding of the same body movement.D. We cannot communicate with others without words.DTheres a new frontier in 3D printing thats beginning to come into focus: food. Recent development has made possible machines that print, cook, and serve foods on a mass scale. And the industry isnt stopping there.Food productionWith a 3D printer, a cook can print complicated chocolate sculptures and beautiful pieces for decoration on a wedding cake. Not everybody can do that it takes years of experience, but a printer makes it easy. A restaurant in Spain uses a Foodini to “re-create forms and pieces” of food that are “exactly the same,” freeing cooks to complete other tasks. In another restaurant, all of the dishes and desserts it serves are 3D-printed,rather than farm to table.Sustainability(可持续性）The global population is expected to grow to 9.6 billion by 2050, and some analysts estimate that food production will need to be raised by 50 percent to maintain current levels. Sustainability is becoming a necessity. 3D food printing could probably contribute to the solution. Some experts believe printers could usehydrocolloids(水解胶体) from plentiful renewables like algae(藻类) and grass to replace the familiar ingredients(烹饪原料). 3D printing can reduce fuel use and emissions. Grocery stores of the future might stock food that lasts years on end, freeing up shelf space and reducing transportation and storage requirements.NutritionFuture 3D food printers could make processed food healthier. Hod Lipson, a professor at Columbia University, said, “Food printing could allow consumers to print food with customized nutritional content, like vitamins. So instead of eating a piece of yesterdays bread from the supermarket, youd eat something baked just for you on demand.”ChallengesDespite recent advancements in 3D food printing, the industry has many challenges to overcome. Currently, most ingredients must be changed to a paste(糊状物) before a printer can use them, and the printing process is quite time-consuming, because ingredients interact with each other in very complex ways. On top of that, most of the 3D food printers now are restricted to dry ingredients, because meat and milk products may easily go bad. Some experts are skeptical about 3D food printers, believing they are better suited for fast food restaurants than homes and high-end restaurants.32.What benefit does 3D printing bring to food production?A.It saves time and effort in cooking. B.It helps cooks to create new dishes.C.It improves the cooking conditions.D.It contributes to restaurant decorations.33.What can we learn about 3D food printing from Paragraphs 3?A.It solves food shortages easily.B.It uses renewable materials as sources of food.C.It needs no space for the storage of food.D.It quickens the transportation of food.34.According to Paragraph 4, 3D-printed food _.A.is more available to consumersB.is more tasty than food in supermarketsC.can meet individual nutritional needsD.can keep all the nutrition in raw materials35.What could be the best title of the passage?A.A New Way to Improve 3D Food PrintingB.The Challenges for 3D Food ProductionC.3D Food Printing: From Farm to TableD.3D Food Printing: Delicious New Technology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。How to Prevent Yourself from Catching a Cold When cold season is around, almost everyone around you has one. 36 This article will show you some ways to remain well during the sick season.Wash your hands with soap and water if they get in touch with anything that is handled by a lot of people.
