He attended Washington High School but because of an unimportant detail he did not receive his diploma until 1962, long after he had received his Bachelors degree in chemical engineering from Oregon State College in 1922. He had chosen to study this major because he could get a good job with it. He won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1954 “for his research into the nature of the chemical bond and its application to the explanation of the structure of complex substances”. His interest in the “behavior” of molecules (分子) led him from physical chemistry to biological chemistry, especially of the human body. He began with proteins and their main parts, the amino acids (氨基酸), which are called the “building blocks of life”. In 1950, he constructed the first satisfactory model of a protein molecule, a discovery very important to the understanding of the living cell. During World War II, Pauling was a member of the Research Board for National Security, for which he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Merit in 1948. However, the use of the atomic bomb near the end of the war turned Pauling in a new direction. Having long worked on the structure of molecules, he took an immediate interest in the deadly effects of nuclear fallout on human molecular structures. From then on, Pauling protested the production of the hydrogen bomb and supported the prevention of the spread of nuclear weapons. Through his efforts, , declaring all nuclear tests to be illegal except underground ones, came into effect on October 10, 1963, the same day Linus Pauling was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace.56. From the first paragraph, we learn that Linus Pauling _. A. didnt study hard while in Washington High School B. is the only scientist who has won two Nobel PrizesC. was once badly treated in Washington High SchoolD. chose to study chemical engineering to earn his living57. Which of the following things did Pauling pay much attention to at first? A. The “behavior” of molecules.B. Physical chemistry. C. Biological chemistry.D. The human body. 58. During World War II, Linus Pauling _. A. had to stop his research because of the war B. made great contributions to the safety of the countryC. joined the army to fight for the safety of the countryD. took part in researching nuclear bombs 59.

There is no best way to learn a language, just different ways that suit different people. Some people prefer to “pick up” the language by reading books or magazines, watching films, visiting the country where the target language is spoken, etc. They focus on the meanings of words and dont worry too much about the language forms used. This method often suits children if they find themselves in a foreign country or with foreign friends. However, this approach doesnt suit everyone if your aim is to become good at writing. Probably the most common way to learn a language is in a classroom with a teacher. The teacher can explain difficult words, give guidance, provide extra motivation and feedback on progress. Unfortunately, some people do not have very pleasant experiences of learning a language in the classroom. Language learning can be great fun. But your writing level will be increased most efficiently this way. Besides learning in a classroom, you can use a personal tutor and arrange a very flexible system of tuition. That means if you are busy at a particular time, you can still arrange to have your language tuition at a time that suits you. With recent improvements in modern technology, it is now possible to purchase a wide range of multi-media materials for learning a language. You can teach yourself using cassettes, videos, CD- ROMs, books, and any combination of these. This approach is best suited to students who are self-disciplined and well-organized. It also tends to assist with the development of reading and listening skills. But be sure to pick out materials of high quality. If you want to become fluent at speaking and writing a language, youll also benefit from cooperating with other users. 60. The method mentioned in the first paragraph can be considered _.A. passive learningB. natural and active learning C. the most effective learning methodD. a structured learning method61. The underlined word “flexible” in the second paragraph means “_”. A. strictB. pleasantC. safeD. free 62. From the passage, we can NOT learn that _. A. people need to care about grammar when speaking a languageB. classroom studying can be boring sometimes C. not all learning materials can help improve our language levelD. students lacking self-control may not benefit much from self-study63. What might be talked about in the next passage? A. How to find a personal tutor. B. How to deal with the difficulties in study.C. How to cooperate with other language learners.D. How to find the best studying method. A new effort is being launched to better educate parents about the earliest signs of autism (孤独症). Doctors at Marylands Kennedy Krieger Institute, one of the countrys leading autism centers, say they can now identify symptoms in children at a younger age than before. Children with autism withdraw into their own private worlds. Most children are not diagnosed until they are 3 to 5 years old, but the signs can appear as early as 6 months. “Most people use the rule of thumb that if a child is showing developmental delays before the age of 3, theyll catch up, but children with autism usually cant,” said researcher Rebecca Landa. Researchers at the institute are showing in a video just what symptoms to look for, even in an infant. In about 30 percent of autism cases, researchers are now documenting what they call “regressive（倒退的）autism”. One boy documented by the Kennedy Krieger Institute was engaged and smiling at his mother at 6 months. When he reached one year, he appeared a little shy, but again, there was no reason for concern. But at the age of 2, he was totally attached to his toys and the signs in him have become more obvious. “Although causes of autism remain unknown, now you can really see autism in its full form,” Landa said. Chloe was diagnosed with autism at 2, when she could not interact with the children around her, and she hated to be touched. But after four months of intensive treatment, her behavior improved significantly. “She is talking now,” Landa said. “She looks to the teacher and shares enjoyment. She looks to others to know what she should be doing.” Chloe will still require many more years of treatment, but these early gains do last.64. Which of the following is NOT a symptom of a child suffering from autism? A. Not speaking to people around him. B. Not making eye contact with others. C. Acting aggressively to people around them. D. Fixing all his attention on the objects. 65. What do the underlined words “these early gains” in the last paragraph probably refer to?A. Many years of treatment.B. Researches carried out by Landa.C. The early recognition of signs of autism.D. The cases Landa provided. 66. From the passage, we can learn that _. A. early signs of autism are often unnoticed or ignoredB. more and more children are suffering from autism C. autism can be completely cured if early symptoms are noticed D. children usually develop autism at the age of three 67. What would be the best title for this passage?A. Early Symptoms of Autism in Children. B. Parents Should Look for Early Signs of Autism. C. New Effective Way to Treat Autism.D. Researchers Identify New Symptoms of Autism. Come and discover the little big city in Switzerland. Its worth it to see the nicest sights.

Mark is leaving, and Im feeling kind of sad. You probably dont know Mark. Hes been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years, combining great professional skills with a sweet nature. And now hes moving on to an exciting new professional opportunity. Were genuinely (真诚地) pleased about it. But that doesnt make it easier to say goodbye. Life has a way of throwing these curve balls at us. Just when we start to get comfortable with a person, a place or a situation, something comes along to change the recipe. Our ability to cope with change and disturbance determines, to a great degree, our peace, happiness and contentment in life. But how do we do that? My friend Chris once told me that the answer can be summed up in four words “Go with the flow”. “Its like surfing,” Chris explained. “You cant organize the ocean. Waves just happen. You ride them where they take you, then you paddle back out there and catch the next one. Mostly you just take them the way they come.” Im not exactly sure, but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of events both good and bad. There will always be life-influencing factors you cant control. When things come up, which arent exactly in your plan, work them out and then move on to be truly successful. Of course, a rained-out picnic is easier to deal with than the sudden death of a loved one. But the principle is the same. Well miss Mark, but lets focus on hopes for a brighter future. And then well go out and do everything we can to m
