Some years ago, writing in my diary used to be a usual activity. I would return from school and spend the 36 half hour recording the day’s events, feelings, and impressions in my little blue diary. I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my 37 forever recorded on paper. 38 , isn’t accumulating memories a way of 39 the past? When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley,

40 with pens, a diary, and a camera. During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name and place I 41 . I felt proud to be spending my time 42 , dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels. On my last night there, I wandered out of my 43 , diary in hand. The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of 44 . I automati cally took out my pen…

At that point, I understood that 45 I wrote could ever 46 or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley. All

I remembered of the previous few days were the 47 characterizations I had 48 in my diary.

Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling.

I still love to record ideas and quotations that 49 me in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful. I take pictures, but not very often—only of objects I find really beautiful. I’m no longer 50 satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old. I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay

51 the camera, busy preserving the present so as to 52 it in the future.

I don’t want to 53 one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes. Maybe I won’t have as many exact representations of people and places; maybe I’ll forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always 54 inside me.

I don’t live to make 55 —I just live, and the memories form themselves.

36. A. valued B. freed C. expected D. spared

37. A. experiences B. feelings C. stories D. life

38. A. In all B. After all C. Above all D. All in all

39. A. preserving B. appreciating C. describing D. holding

40. A. served B. offered C. provided D. equipped

41. A. dropped at B. came across C. left for D. went to

42. A. carefully B. reasonably C. productively D. heartily

43. A. yard B. house C. tent D. door

44. A. shadows B. shallows C. shades D. shapes

45. A. everything B. nothing C. anything D.

something

46. A. fit B. suit C. meet D. match

47. A. beautiful B. special C. dull D. exciting

48. A. set out B. set off C. set up D. set down

A

Biologists from Boise State University have been making noise in the forests of the western American state of Idaho. They are making noise to study the value of quiet in nature. They want to know how people and animals react to noise pollution. The researchers placed outdoor speakers on the side of a half-kilometer-long part of a road in the Boise National Forest. For two years, they played the sounds of passing cars through the speakers. Professor Jesse Barber of Boise State University says they found the sounds caused migratory(迁徙的) birds to flee. The birds also failed to gain weight.

Recently, researchers played sounds of machines that are used to remove natural gas from the ground. That sound is heard in natural gas fields throughout the American West. Professor Barber says these experiments are designed to help researchers learn the effects of noise pollution on birds, insects, bats, plants and people.

The research team also studied a group of volunteers who watch birds for fun. Mitch Levenhagen is a graduate student in the research team. He measured how much the artificial noise lessened the ability of the birdwatchers to identify recorded bird songs. He recorded eight songs in the noise condition and eight songs in the quiet. The birdwatchers said the artificial noise affected their ability to identify bird sounds more than they thought it would. Birdwatcher Jim Lyons said the experiment caused him to value quiet more.

The National Park Service is paying for some noise pollution research. The federal agency is also examining other ways to reduce noise. They include putting new surfaces on roads. And they are creating quiet areas with signs telling visitors

to turn off their mobile phones.

56. Why biologists make noise in forests?

A. Because they want to study the value of quiet

B. Because they want to wipe away the noise of nature

C. Because they want to disturb nature balance

D. Because they want to make noise pollution

57. According to Professor Barber, the intention of the experiments is to_______.

A. drive animals away from cities

B. assist researchers in studying the effects of noise pollution

C. help researchers catch birds and insects

D. help researchers learn how to avoid noise pollution

58. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Researchers are looking for solutions to noise pollution by making noise.

B. The birds in the Boise National Forest gained some weight.

C. The artificial noise had no effect on birdwatchers’ ability to identify bird sounds.

D. The National Park Service turns a blind eye to reducing noise pollution.

Facebook is launching a news mobile app called Notify with subscription content from media partners like the Washington Post and Vogue. The Notify app lets users subscribe to content from media partners on their smartphones. Facebook will be able to add news alerts in its daily notifications to a global audience. Facebook's "renewed push into mobile news reflects a big, global shift in media consumption patterns," said the Financial Times. Facebook's profit and revenue growth reflected this shift in media. The world's largest social media platform said its third-quarter revenue grew to $4.5 billion on the strength of its mobile advertising.

Facebook, with 500 million users, has doubled its daily page views to 8 billion since April. The company also owns Instagram, a mobile photo and video-sharing app with 400 million users. Analysts were optimistic about Instagram's future growth. Research firm eMarketer predicted global mobile advertising revenues for Instagram will reach $2.8 billion by 2017, up from $595 million this year. This represents over 10 percent of Facebook's global advertising revenues.

This strong showing has positioned Facebook to compete with major social media

companies as an advertising force, said analysts. "Facebook will drive growth and capture nearly 65% of social network ad revenues in 2015," reported eMarketer. "In the medium to long run, we believe that we're not competing between Facebook and Instagram. We're competing with other forms of media," Sandberg,Facebook's Chief Operating Officer, told analysts on a conference call. She said Facebook wants to grow in emerging markets and bring more people online who are not using the Internet.

The advertising environment on social media is very competitive. Social media platforms are fighting for customers on laptops, tablets, phones and even watches. Twitter is one of Facebook's competitors. Twitter's advertising revenues have slowed as the company struggles to add new users, reported the Wall Street Journal. Another competitor, Google, is selling more advertisements for less money on its own sites, said Ad Age.

59. Facebook launches Notify in order to________.

A. gain the chance to cooperate with the Washington Post and Vogue

B. increase the number of its users

C. let its global audience watch news alerts on their smartphones

D. reflect a big, global shift in media consumption patterns

60. Facebook’s third-quarter revenue rose to_________.

A. $4.5 billion

B. 8 billion

C. $2.8 billion

D. $595 million

61. What do we know about Instagram?

A. It has 500 million users.

B. Analysts were pessimistic about Instagram's future growth

C. It is a mobile photo and video-sharing app

D. Global mobile advertising revenues for Instagram has increased to $2.8 billion

62. According to Sheryl Sandberg, which is NOT Facebook’s competitor?

A. Apple

B. Twitter

C. Google

D. Instagram

Researchers in Slovenia say they have found some evidence of a link between the Zika virus and an increase in some birth defects. They published the study this week in the New England Journal of Medicine. The Journal also published a report from a group of American health experts that supports the Slovenian research. The researchers studied a woman who was infected with the Zika virus. She had

an abortion after an examination showed the fetus(胎儿) had severe health problems. They said the mother and members of her family had not had the health problems found in the fetus. And the researchers believe that neither the woman nor members of her family had been infected with any other viruses that cause health problems in fetuses. When the researchers examined the aborted fetus they found the Zika virus. And they found that it had only attacked the brain. They believe this is strong evidence that the virus causes birth defects. But they said more study must be done to confirm their beliefs.

People infected with the Zika virus suffer from fever, rash, joint and muscle pain and red eyes. It is not a severe illness. But because of its possible link to birth defects, experts believe it is a great danger to pregnant women.

In February, the WHO said the virus is a global health emergency. And it predicted that Zika could infect as many as 4 million people across the Americas this year. The declaration meant more money and other help would be given to fight the virus. But the health agency did not say there should be a ban on travel or trade in areas where the virus is present. Some health experts say pregnant women, or women trying to get pregnant, should not travel to Brazil. The 2016 Summer Olympics are taking place in the South American country.

No treatment or vaccine for the Zika virus exists. But drug companies in India, Japan and France are working to develop possible vaccines.

63. What’s the result of the study according to the 1st paragraph?

A. The Zika virus can lead to birth defects

B. Researchers found evidence of a link between the Zika virus and birth defects

C. The study was done by researchers from both Slovenia and America

D. American health experts challenged the study published in the New England Journal of Medicine

64. The reason for the fetus being aborted is that________.

A. the Zika virus attacked its brain causing severe health problems

B. the woman had severe health problems

C. the woman was infected with other viruses

D. the woman’s family members had the health problems

65. If someone is infected with the Zika virus, he or she will have the following symptoms except _______.

A. fever

B. joint and muscle pain

C. headache

D. red eyes

66. We can learn from the passage that ______.

A. it has been confirmed by researchers that the virus causes birth defects

B. the Zika virus is a severe illness

C. there should be a ban on travel or trade in areas where the virus is present

D. t reatment or vaccine for the Zika virus doesn’t exist

D

It took 100 years, but finally, scientists, from CalTech, MIT and the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, proved Albert Einstein's theory that gravitational waves exist. The waves were predicted as part of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity nearly 100 years ago. It was the theory of the physics behind the workings of our world and the universe. The idea was that the waves are like ripples in space, caused by some of the violent and energetic processes in the Universe. For example, two black holes crashing into each other.

What are these gravitational waves? Well, imagine throwing a rock into a pond. When the rock hits the flat surface of the water, it creates ripples or waves. Spacetime is like the surface of the water. So that means gravitational waves are like the ripples moving out from where the rock hits the water. It might be hard to understand, but those gravitational waves expand and contract space and time as they move through space. And when they get to the Earth, the waves pass through, and contract and expand the planet as the wave goes by.

It was Einstein who said these gravitational waves should be observable. But these are not huge waves. They are very, very small, which is why it took so long to find them. You cannot see them with your eyes. They are smaller than the size of an atom. How did the scientists find them? For years, scientists have been watching two black holes in another galaxy faraway with the help of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory. The two were spinning around each other, moving closer and closer together. When they finally crashed into each other, it was with such power and force, that gravitational waves rang throughout the universe, like a giant bell. Those waves, traveling at the speed of light, finally reached the Earth, some 1.3 billion years later. They are the same waves that the scientists announced this past week.

The National Science Foundation tweeted that each of the black holes was thought to be 29 to 36 times the mass of our sun. So, what does this discovery mean? Abhay Ashtekar, a Penn State physicist, who was not on the discovery team, said: "Our

understanding of the heavens changed dramatically."

67. According to the 1st paragraph, we can learn that_______.

A. gravitational waves were part of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity

B. scientists proved that gravitational waves existed 100years ago

C. gravitational waves were the theory of the physics behind the universe

D. gravitational waves result from two black holes crashing into each other

68. From the passage we can know that the gravitational waves______.

A. are not supposed to be observed.

B. are very huge.

C. are easy to be found.

D. can’t be seen with our eyes.

69. Why did scientists spend years watching two black holes?

A. Because they wanted to see how the two black holes crashed into each other.

B. Because they wanted to find the gravitational waves.

C. Because they wanted to see the gravitational waves reach the Earth.

D. Because they wanted to know how black holes formed.

70. What can we infer from the passage?

A. The discovery has no relation to Albert Einstein's theory

B. Throwing a rock into a pond can generate gravitational waves

C. The discovery will considerably affect people’s understanding of universe

D. gravitational waves can’t contract and expand the Earth

Boys are not so good at English when there are girls in their class, a research student said. This finding disagrees with the widely held belief that girls always have a good influence on boys in school.

Boys do best with as few girls as possible in English lessons at primary and secondary schools, Steven Proud, a research student at Bristol University, told the Royal Economic Society’s conference.

But when it comes to math and science, both boys and girls at primary schools achieve up to a tenth of a grade higher when there is a greater percentage of girls in the class, Proud found.

Proud kept a record of boys’ and girls’ test results at the ages of 7, 11, and

16 in 16,000 schools in England. He studied the test scores to see whether the percentage of girls made a difference to the results of both boys and girls in math, science and English.

Boys always perform worse when the number of girls they study English with increases, which is especially the case at primary schools. Proud also found that girls are unaffected by the number of boys in their English class.

Proud said boys may do worse in English when there is high proportion of girls in their class because they think that the girls are better than them. It could also be that teachers use teaching styles more appropriate to girls when there are more girls than boys in the class.

Proud argues that his results show boys should be taught English in single-sex classes.

However, Professor Alan Smithers, director of the Centre for Education and Employment Research at the University of Buckingham, said, “Boys may be discouraged by how well girls are doing in English, but you can’t say that it means boys and girls should be separated. It has very little practical importance to schools.”
