The search engine Google celebrated on Thursday the 110th birthday of the first Native American woman engineer. Google honored Mary Ross with a special Google Doodle on its homepage.
Ross was born on August 9, 1908, in the state of Oklahoma. She was the great-granddaughter of John Ross, the longest—serving chief of the Cherokee Nation. Her work is considered important to the early stages of the age of space travel.
Ross showed special abilities in math and science from an early age. As a student, she developed an interest in aviation, or the practice of flying aircraft. She went on to earn a master’s degree in mathematics from Colorado State Te achers College, now called the University of Northern Colorado.
During World War II, Ross began working for the Lockheed Aircraft Corporation as a mathematician. She earned a special certification(证书) in the field from the University of California in1949. Ross was later chosen to join Lockheed’s top—secret Skunk Works team that worked on aircraft designs. The name refers to a group that is permitted to work independently on advanced projects. She was the only female engineer among the team’s 40 members.
Early on, she researched defense systems. By the late 1950s, her work centered on satellites and a series of space rockets called Agenda. The rockets were extremely important in the 1960s during the Apollo moon program.
Ross also helped develop early design ideas for space travel between planets, including flyby space flights to study Venus and Mars. Ross retired from Lockheed in 1973. But she continued to give talks at high schools and colleges to encourage more women and Native Americans to study engineering. She died in 2008, a few months before her 100th birthday.
Many celebrated Ross’life on social media. Twitter user Aaron Perez, for example, wrote:“ Mary Ross was an engineer who pioneered in the field of satellites. I never would have known if it wasn’t for the doodle. Women engineers deserve more recognition.”
24. Why did Google celebrate Mary Ross’ 110th birthday?
A. She invented a new flying aircraft.
B. She had been a great designer ever.
C. She got a master’s degree in mathematics.
D. She contributed a lot to space travel.
25. What did Mary Ross do in the middle of the 20th century?
A. She planned the Apollo moon program.
B. She worked on Agenda.
C. She helped women study engineering.
D. She gave talks at high schools.
26. Which of the following can best describe Mary Ross?
A. Caring and cautious
B. Courageous and optimistic
C. Generous and patient
D. Talented and creative
27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Social media is very popular in the world.
B. Every Twitter user thinks highly of Mary Ross.
C. More attention should be paid to women engineers.
D. Man has made greater progress in space technology.

Many college students complain about dormitory (宿舍) life: a sweltering room without air-conditioning in summer and a dormitory gate which is closed at 11 pm. But they may miss their dormitories after graduation, when they have to spend as much as a third of their income renting a shabby room.
The rising prices of daily necessities, including food, water, gas and electricity, are also making graduates save every penny to make ends meet. Faced with the high cost of living, college graduates need to make every penny work when they budget （预算） their income.
When it comes to renting, try to spend no more than one third of your income on it．Better still, only spend a quarter, according to Hao Qian, a career consultant. Hao also reminds graduates to set aside about one fifth of their income for social activities. “People have spent more on their social lives because of changes in forms of entertainment,” said Hao, “For example, new friends may want to meet you at a quiet club instead of at a noisy house.”
In spite of the high cost of living, many college graduates still, try to stay in big cities. They usually work in industries such as finance, public relations and IT, which depend on a booming（繁荣的） city economy and technology．Hao advises such graduates to reduce their expenditure on shopping as much as possible. “If you are not in jobs such as PR and sales which require you to dress well, you don't need to spend much on clothes and accessories（服装配饰）, said Hao, “Spend less than one eighth of your monthly income on shopping.”
28. What does the underlined word "sweltering" in the first paragraph probably mean？
A. Hot and airless
B. Damp and narrow
C. Simple and dull
D. Comfortable and rich
29. Which item takes up the most income of the graduates according to Hao Qian？
A. Travel
B. Shopping
C. Social activities
D.
Renting
30. How does the author begin the text?
A. By making comparisons
B. By making analysis
C. By using an example
D. By describing processes
31. We can know from the text that ___________________.
A. the money spent on social activities is mainly to broaden business cooperation
B. it's unwise to meet your new friend in your dormitory with loud roommates
C. more and more graduates choose to work in small towns or medium cities
D. if you take up a PR job in a firm, you can wear casual clothes
D
Every country has certain cultural patterns making it unique. Of course, habits and customs between cultures and countries tend to overlap(重叠).The popularity of social media, for instance, ignores borders and breaks down cultural differences. Technology has made the world a much smaller and culturally similar place. However, when looking at a foreign country, we will always find differences between our traditions and theirs. Young Italians and young Americans, for example, though alike in many respects, have also some pronounced differences, especially when it comes to work, pastimes and sports.
Most American teens have part-time jobs through high school and college. Youths in Italy tend not to. The reasons behind this are multifaceted. It is, to begin with, rather hard in Italy to find the type of part-time jobs students usually take up. Moreover, there is also a different cultural attitude to take into consideration, especially when thinking of certain parts of Italy. Young Italians like to enjoy life to the full and feel there will be time to work once they become adults, hence the lack of interest in finding odd jobs while still in school. Like the old saying goes, some Italians work to Live, while some Americans often live to work.
In a lot of ways, young Italians ans and Americans spend their free time in a similar fashion. Listening to music, watching movies, hanging out, practicing sports and surfing the Internet are all common ways to pass some free time. Italians, especially, make a point of going out and being social, often choosing between pizzerie or birrerie (place for pizza or beer). which stay open late. Italians often pile into a couple of cars and go out in a big group. In general, American teens participate in a lot of extracurricular(课外的)activities, many often through school, while Italians may not take part in so many.
When going out,Italian teens tend to meet and gather on the streets of their cities or towns, something not as common in the United States, especially in highly populated areas. This very Italian habit can be linked to the urban arrangement of Italian towns. Many of them date back thousands of years and feature central piazzas(广场) and areas built around historical sites that have now become gathering places for the young.If you're in Italy,don't be surprised by the sight of hundreds gathered in a piazza or on the street, laughing and drinking the night away.
32. The passage is mainly about
A.the unique lifestyles shared by American and Italian teens
B.the relationship between young people of America and Italy
C.some customs and habits of the Americans and Italians
D.some differences in tradition between young Americans and Italians
33.By saying "some Italians work to live,while some Americans often live to work”,the author most probably wants to tell us that
A.Italians have a better life attitude toward working
B.Americans are more diligent and thus live a better life
C.Americans and Italians both find it hard to locate a satisfying job
D.Italians and Americans have different choices regarding work
34. According to paragraph 3,which of the following statements is true?
A.American teens practice sports and surf the Internet to pass time.
B.Italian youth take an active part in extracurricular activities.
C.American teens like to drive out and social together in big groups.
D.ltalian youth enjoy pizza and beer because they are cheap.
35.If there is one more paragraph in this passage, what will it most probably be about?
A.The working conditions of the young Americans and Italians.
B.The differences in practicing sports between teens of the two nations.
C.The central piazzas and areas built around historical sites in Italy.
D.The urban arrangement of the highly populated American cities.
