Cao told China Daily on Monday after he telephoned Tu to congratulate her.Its an overdue（迟来的）honor for Tu and the worlds recognition of traditional Chinese medicine, he said.Tus breakthrough in winning the Nobel Prize in a natural science is the pride of the whole nation and the whole Chinese scientific community, said Zhou Dejin,spokesman of the Chinese Academy of Science,Chinas national research body that consists of more than one hundred research insistutes,universities and research branches,The achievement of discovering artemisinin was made in the 1970s,but it only received international recognition in later years ,which suggests that we might have more achievements that have reached the Nobel Prize level but have not been recognized.

What about a driveway for your car? Both of these can help you make money.Many people who are feeling the pinch are taking advantage of whats been called the “sharing economy”.Perhaps the best-known example of a company in this field is Airbnb-an American web business which allows you to rent out your spare room to holidaymakers.It says it operates in 34,000 cities and it has over 1,500,000 listings.It seems to have concerned the market!A British company is doing something with parking spaces.JustParks founder, Anthony Eskinazi, says ,“When I had the original idea,Ispotted a driveway close to a sports stadium.It would have been so convenient if I could have just parked in that driveway rather than in commercial car park.” And he has a big clientele（客户）:around 20,000 people have advertised their spaces on the site,and he says around half a million drivers use it.There are other sites doing very similar things,like Uber and Lyft-these let drivers share their cars with other passengers.Any driver knows how valuable a place to park is .A church near Kings Cross in central London has apparently made over 200,000 by renting out space in its yard to travelers!Because this is a new business world,those rules arent there yet and many people are happy to share.as long as it pays!But the sharing economy has its critics:the competitors of these new companies.People who run things like traditional B&B, commercial car parks and taxi services are afraid of ending up out of pocket.And there is another issue:regulations on these new business are unclear.How will renting out your driveway affect your neighbor?32.What does the underlined phrase “feeling the pinch” probably mean?A.Lacking in money B.Full of curiosityC.Willing to help others D.Unsatisfied with their life33.Who may be against the sharing economy?A.A taxi driver who cant find a a parking place B.

I know youve heard this before, but its often repeated because its so important. Get plenty of sleep the night before the test! If you dont have enough rest, youll find it much harder to concentrate.37.Leave early. Be sure to leave earlier than normal on the day of a test to avoid the added fear of arriving late.38The embarrassment will cause you to be distracted and lose valuable time.39Once you arrive at school or at the testing center, find a quiet space where you can be all alone. You can use your car if you drive, or you can find an empty locker room or office (ask a teacher). Once you locate in a quiet place, do a relaxation session. Close your eyes and try to relax completely. Take deep breath and keep calm.40Its possible that some students start to stress out as other students discuss the material.
