The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age. The largest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,〞 said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.“Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,〞 said Goldspink. “This is part of the ageing process.〞What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.“This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men,〞 said Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. “The team h as yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart,〞 said Goldspink.The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise.Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg musclesbecoming smaller and weaker as they age.1 The underlined word “longevity〞 in the second paragraph probably refers to“________〞.A. healthB. long lifeC. ageingD. effect2. The text mainly talks about ________.A. m en’s heart cellsB. women’s ageing process、C. the gender differenceD. hearts and long life3. :// /according to the text, the UK scientists have known that ________.A. women have more cells than men when they are bornB. women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beatC. the female heart loses few of the cells with ageD. women never lose their pumping power with age4. If you want to live longer, you should ________.A. enable your heart to beat much fasterB. find out the reason for ageingC. exercise regularly to keep your heart healthyD. prevent your cells from being lost5. We can know from the passage that ________.A. the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been foundoutB. scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cellsC. the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater lossD. women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20BLike most July days, it was hot. I stepped into a tiny ice-cream shop to cool off with a chocolate ice-cream. It was an old woman bent over a table near the door. Her back was so badly twisted that her face nearly touched the tabletop. I sat sown facing her couple of tables away.“Poor woman,〞I thought “What does she get out of life? Shy God let people live so long past their prime?〞As I thought, another aged lady entered the shop and sat down with her. Soon the two of them were talking about childhood days. They talked of how little the shop had changed in 70 years. . . In minutes, the two of them were trembling with laughter.I looked again at the first woman, then in the mirror on a nearby wall, catchinga picture of myself. I was wearing a dirty shirt. She was well dressed in white, her hands sparking with gold rings. I was sad. She was laughing, smiling. I was putting the pieces of my life together. She had millions of wonderful memories to recall. I sat alone. She was sharing the day with a good friend. I was secretly worried about getting old. She was old, but it wasn't hurting her.As I left the shop, I thought of my foolish question about God letting people livepast their prime. Why, that woman was more alive, more sensitive to life than I was. Age has not bent her spirit.( nmet168 )6. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. To tell us the life of old peopleB. To show the difference between the old and the young.C. To show that old age does not mean being short of spirit.D.

From the passage we know that the ice-shop________.A. changed a lot in the pastB. started its business 70 years ago.C. had only a couple of tablesD. had only women shoppers.8. The writer implies all of the following except that________.A. the old lady was very lonely and sadB. the writer had more problems than the old ladyC. the old lady had lived a full and satisfying lifeD. the old lady had learned to enjoy the simple things in life9. Which of the following is the conclusion the writer made about the old lady?A. She was to be pitied for her old age.B. She considered the young man pitiable.C. She was more alive and sensitive to life than the writer.D. People should not be allowed to live when they are too old.CMy aunt Edith was a widow (寡妇)of 50，working as a secretary，when doctorsdiscovered she had got what was then thought to be a very serious heart illness.Aunt Edith didn’t accept defeat eas ily. She began studying medical reports in library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart doctor，Dr.Michael Debakey，of Houston，Texas. He had saved the life of someone with the same illness. The article said Dr Debakey’s fees were very high；Aunt Edith couldn’t possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fee she could pay?So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting to live：her three children，who would be on their own in three or four years and among them a little girl who always dreamed of traveling and seeing the world. There wasn’t a word of self-pity-only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter，not really expecting an answer.A few days later，my doorbell rang. Aunt Edith di dn’t wait to come in；she stood in the hall and read aloud:Your beautiful letter moved me very deeply. If you can come to Houston，there will be no charge for either the hospital or the operation.Signed：Michael Debakey That was seven years ago. Since then，Aunt Edith has been around the world.

Diary of Anne TrankDA beautiful and very successful actress was the star of a new musical show.

The weather was awful, for it was pouring with rain, and I would’ve loved to buy umbrellas for people. I decided to think of free or really cheap ways to make people smile. I knew I’d also have to deal with my shyness, or just create acts of kindness, but it was a challenge that I was willing to accept!When I was on the bus, the seat I sat on next to the window was wet; somehow the rain had gotten in. I left a note on the seat, with the Smile Card, saying, “This seat is wet: sit with caution (谨慎) !” Later, while waiting at the road crossing, I held my card over the woman standing in front of me. She didn’t notice but obviously those extra moments of dryness would help!After the interview, I’d devised a few more ways to create smiles. I checked my purse for change and put 50 pence and a Smile Card on top of a child’s automatic ride. I allowed an elderly gentleman to go in front of me as he was having trouble standing. At this point, I was really beginning to accept my day of kindness!Before getting on the bus home. I had one more idea: I went and bought a small bag of chocolates and attached a Smile Card. When I got back to my street, I left the sweets and the Smile Card at a neighbour’s door. This neighbour had taken in a parcel (包裹) for me last week, so he deserved a treat.After all this, my day of giving wasn’t yet over! I was so pleased that I managed to do all these little things for others today. It didn’t take much effort on my part, but I definitely had to push myself to overcome (克服) my lack of confidence, and I’m proud of myself.4．What difficulty does the writer have to overcome?A．The job interview.B．The terrible weather.C．Poor ability to pay.D．The shyness character.5．What does the underlined word “devised” mean in Paragraph 3?A．Thought up.B．Focused on.C．Cut out.D．Looked forward to. 6．Why did the writer give the sweets and the Smile Card to the neighbour?A．To please the neighbour’s children.B．To thank the neighbour for the help last week.C．To receive a welcome treat from the neighbour.D．To try to trouble the neighbour to take in his parcel.7．What message does the writer convey?A．A friend in need is a friend indeed.B．Any act of kindness matters.C．Shyness makes it difficult to succeed.D．Believe in yourself first, then others will believe you.The African continent has seen its average monthly temperatures rise by 0.5 — 2 degrees Celsius over the past century, with up to another two degrees of warming projected for the next 100 years. The changing climate will break historical rainfall patterns, but which of these, temperature or rainfall, will have the most impact on a species, like rhinos (犀牛) ?“Generally speaking, most, if not all, species will. in one way or another, be affected by the changing climate,” says lead author Hlelowenkhosi S. Mamba, who completed this research. It is therefore important to catch tendency (趋势) and model futures for some of the world’s weakest species. It can help prepare to reduce climate change’s effects, hence reducing global biodiversity losses.To understand how our changing climate will affect rhino populations, Mamba and Timothy Randhir, professor of environmental protection, focused their efforts on the five large national parks that are home to most of the rhinos.Mamba and Randhir then modeled two scenes for each of the parks: the IPCC’s high-emissions (排放) scenes and a more moderate (适度的) emissions scenes. They projected temperature and rainfall for each of the scenes out to 2055 and 2085 to arrive at a possibility that each park would remain suitable for the rhinos.Nearly every park will become increasingly drier as emissions increase. This is all very bad news for the rhinos, because the team also found that, though the change in rainfall will not bemost suitable for the rhinos, the changes in temperature are greater than what the species can bear.“The temperature conditions in all study parks will become increasingly unsuitable for the species. And under the high-emissions scenes, the possibility of occurrence of the species falls to zero by 2085,” the authors write.But to be forewarned is to be prepared in advance. “We propose that park managers think now about increasing water supplies, tree cover, watching for stress and planning to allow rhinos to move from one place to another place as the world warms,” says Randhir.8．Why does the author ask a question in Paragraph 1?A．To show an evidence.B．To stress the main idea.C．To lead in the topic.D．To offer some background.9．What does the second paragraph mainly focus on?A．The means of the research.B．The content of the research.C．The process of the research.D．The significance of the research. 10．What can we know about the research from the text?A．Changes in rainfall have a greater effect on rhinos.B．Each park will have no rhinos in 2055.C．Changes in temperature affect rhinos more.D．Each park will be warmer by 4. 5℃ in 2085.11．What does Randhir mean in the last paragraph?A．Rhinos are better suited to natural growth.B．Rhinos are in great danger in the five parks.C．Park managers should plan to protect rhinos.D．Park managers must pay more attention to nature.Researchers have developed a new soft robot design that conducts itself with three behaviours at the same time: rolling (翻滚) forward. turning like a record and following a path that goes around a central point. The equipment, which operates without human or computer control, holds promise for developing soft robots that can be used to AA-head and map unknown environments.The new soft robots are called twisted ring-bots (扭曲环机器人) . They are made ofsomething like the ribbon (缎带) and then joined together at the end to form a ring.When the robots are placed on a surface that is at least 55 degrees Celsius, which is hotter than the surrounding air, one part of the ribbon touching the surface becomes smaller, while one part in the air does not. This induces a rolling movement: the warmer the surface, the faster the robot rolls. “The ribbon rolls on its horizontal axis (横轴) , giving the ring forward strength,” says Jie Yin, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering.The twisted ring-bot also turns along its central axis. And as the twisted ring-bot moves forward it travels in a path around a central point, basically moving in a large circle. However, if the twisted ring-bot meets a boundary- like the wall of a box-it will travel along the boundary.The twisted ring-bots are examples of equipment whose behaviour is governed by physical intelligence, meaning their actions are determined by their structural design and the materials they are made of, rather than being directed by a computer or human.“Soft robotics is still a relatively new field.” Yin says. “Finding new ways to control the movement of soft robots in a repeatable and engineered way moves the field forward. And advancing our understanding of what is possible is exciting.”12．What makes the robot roll faster and faster?A．The ribbon.B．The central axis.C．The shape and material.D．The higher surface temperature.13．How does the author introduce the new soft robots?A．By explaining the robot’s working ways.B．By quoting experts’ opinions.C．By making some comparisons.D．By offering reasons and results.14．What is Yin’s attitude towards twisted ring-bots?A．Unclear.B．Favourable.C．Negative.D．Doubtful. 15．What is the best title for the text?A．The New Soft Robots B．Ribbons and Their RollingC．Three Creative Movements D．Twisted Rings and the Axis4 Reasons Why Wild Animals Are So ImportantAs we know, the earth gives us food, medicines and materials, often through wild animals. These wild animals are important to our existence. Sadly, they are becoming extinct at an alarmingrate. We need to change this loss of nature and create a future where wildlife and people thrive (蓬勃发展) again. 16 Here are some reasons why wild animals are so important to the world at large.Wild animals keep balance in ecosystems.17 If any part is threatened or becomes extinct, this has a knock-on effect on the whole ecosystem. sending shock waves through the environment. For ecosystems to survive and perhaps even thrive, we must protect all of our wildlife.Diversity (多样性) means healthier ecosystems and healthier wild animals.When there is a wildlife issue, you’ll often hear the term biodiversity, which refers to the number of species in an ecosystem. 18 Why do we consider this important? A wide variety of animals means greater productivity and better health. If there are fewer animal species, a disease that affects any species spreads faster and more effectively.19All of the food that we eat comes from an animal or plant. Living without various food sources causes our nutrition (营养) to suffer. Protecting wildlife and its natural habitats strengthens food safety for humans around the world.Wildlife helps medical research.Wild animals have helped us find important medicines that help with many diseases. 20 Many medical systems like Chinese traditional medicines still rely on herbs and spices, but even Western medicine have made great progress with wildlife research.A．All living things are interconnected.B．Healthy ecosystems mean a lot of diversity.C．Or we will lose these animals to future generations.D．People worldwide depend on wildlife for their snack.E．Wildlife provides important nutrients for the human race.F．The human race has always turned to nature for medicine.G．We should notice the influence caused by wildlife on culture.二、完形填空The caring employees at a Costco store near Cleveland, Ohio, are being honoured as heroes.

A nicely dressed little girl was excitedly looking through the Barbie dolls as well. As she was looking, a little boy came to the Pokemon toys. He was dressed neatly, but his clothes were obviously old. He was with his father as well, and kept picking up the Pokemon video toys. Each time he picked one up and looked at his father, his father shook his head and said, “No.”The little girl had chosen her Barbie. However, she stopped and was watching them.little girl put her Barbie back on the shelf, and ran over to the Pokemon toys. She excitedly picked up one and raced towards the checkout. I picked up my purchases and got in line behind them. Then, much to the little girl’s delight, the little boy and his father got in line behind me. After the toy was paid for and bagged, the little girl handed it back to the cashier (收银员) and whispered something in her ear. The cashier smiled and put the package under the counter.I paid for my purchases and was rearranging things when the little boy came up to the cashier. The cashier checked his purchases and said, “Congratulations, you are my hundredth customer today, and you win a prize!” With that, she handed the little boy the Pokemon toys, and he could only stare in surprise. It was exactly what he had wanted!The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway during all of this. Then they walked out. As I walked back to my car, I heard the father ask his daughter why she had done that. I’ll never forget what she said to him. “Daddy, didn’t Grandparents want me to buy something that would make me happy?” He said, “Of course they did, honey.” To which thelittle girl replied, “Well, I just did!”I feel very shocked to have witnessed the true spirit of Christmas in that toy store, in the form of a little girl who understands more about the meaning of this festival than most adultsI know.4、The underlined word “dejectedly” in the second paragraph pro bably means __________.A. disappointedlyB. curiouslyC. excitedlyD. unexpectedly5、What did the little girl mean when saying “Daddy, didn't Grandparents want me to buy something that would make me happy?”A. Her Grandparents wanted her to be happy.B. The Pokemon toys made her happy.C. Making the little boy happy made her happy.D. Her Grandparents hoped that she could help others.6、Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. The story happened before Christmas.B. The little boy had not enough money to buy the Pokemon toys.C. The author was deeply moved by the behavior of the little girl.D. Although the little girl liked the Pokemon toy very much，she gave it to the boy.On the “healthy” section of any breakfast menu, you’re sure to see an egg white omelet (煎蛋卷). With no fat and just a quarter of the calories in a whole egg, the whites look like the best choice at first glance. Not so fast, though new research shows a good reason why you might want to keep the yolk (蛋黄) in if you want to get fit. Plus, forget the bad impression that the cholesterol (胆固醇) in yolks has gotten in the past. The USDA removed limits on dietary cholesterol in its most recent dietary guidelines. It’s all because evidence doesn’t back up claims that the cholesterol you eat has much influence on blood cholesterol levels.In a recent study, researchers had ten young men eat either whole eggs or egg whites after completing a strength-training workout. Both egg choices contained 18 grams of protein （蛋白）, and the eggs were developed with chemical markers. Thanks to them, the researchers tracked how the men’s bodies used amino acids (氨基酸) from the eggs and egg whites, and found some surprising results. About 65 to 70 percent of amino acids were available in the blood for both the whole egg and egg white groups suggesting they’d be equally useful in building muscles. But the rest of the results didn’t back up that conclusion.When the researchers looked specifically at how much protein synthesis — the processthat helps muscles repair and grow — occurred, one form of egg clearly did better than the other. “Having whole eggs immediately after exercise resulted in greater protein synthesis than just having egg whites,” says lead study author Nicholas Burd in a statement.Although this study was too small to be conclusive, its conclusion backs up whole egg benefits that nutritionists have been praising for years. From their point of view egg whites are high-protein, low-calorie, but the yolk contains nearly a ll of an egg’s vitamins. And one study found that adults who eat whole eggs in the morning lose more weight and body fat than those who get the same number of calories from a bread-based breakfast. While no large studies have looked into the weight-loss be nefits of whole eggs vs egg whites, there’s also no evidence that the 140 calories in two whole large eggs should scare you away. Crack on, egg lovers.7、What’s implied in Paragraph 1?A. The whites can help people have a good shape.B. The yolk’s function is different from the whites.C. People tend to consider the yolk to be unhealthy.D. The yolk has much to do with blood cholesterol levels.8、Why were the eggs developed with chemical markers?A. To help process the proteins better.B. To make them healthier for people.C. To track the amino acids during digestion.D. To help the body consume amino acids.9、What would be the best title for the text?A. Egg Whites VS Whole EggsB. Egg White Omelets or Just the YolkC. The Correct Way to Build MusclesD. Unknown Facts about Egg White OmeletsCan people who understand the emotions of others better interpret（诠释）emotions conveyed through music? A new study by an international team of researchers suggests the abilities are linked.The study’s results provide a f oundation for future research that could test the impact of socially engaged music listening on social cognitive ability, and whether listening to music can be added to therapeutic (治疗的) techniques used in social skills training for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (孤独症谱系障碍).The findings were published recently in a scientific journal of the American Psychological Association. The study was led by Benjamin A. Tabak, assistant professor of psychology. “Empathy (共情) is most often thought of in the context of social interactions, but there are many other forms of social communication, including music,” Tabak said. “Music can convey meaning and emotion and also bring emotional responses, but what is responsible for its emotional power is poorly underst ood.”Tabak and his colleagues wanted to test their theory about empathy and music. For the purposes of this study, they measured the ability to correctly understand others’ thoughts and feelings — empathic accuracy(准确性) — and the extent to which one feels the emotions that another feels.“We thought it would be interesting to study whether people who more accurately understand others’ thoughts and feelings might also be more accurate in understanding what musicians are intending to convey through music,” Tabak said. “Similarly, we wanted to know whether people who tend to feel the emotions that others are experiencing also tend to feel the emotions conveyed through music.”The original set of findings found support for both theories. In particular, the results suggest that empathic accuracy as a skill extends beyond interpersonal interactions into music. Tabak believes that the study provides tentative support for the theory that music is first and foremost a social behavior that gradually develops to help individuals connect with others and better understand and manage their social environment.10、What can the study result be used to do?A. Be the basis for the next study.B. Apply music to social skills training.C. Decide the music suitable for autism.D. Test the impact of music on emotions.11、What needs further understanding about the link between music and emotions?A. The effect of music.B. The academic support.C. The function of music.D. The emotions music expresses.12、What is Tabak’s attitude tow ards the study?A. Ignorant.B. Doubtful.C. Confident.D. Pessimistic.13、Which can be the best title for the text?A. The Social Behavior Music ReflectsB. The Ability To Accurately Understand EmpathyC. Research Will Set Foundation For Further ResearchD. Research Shows The Role Empathy May Play In MusicThe release of GPT-4, the latest language model developed by OpenAI, has raised concerns about its potential impact on the job market. In the finance industry, fears around AI disruption（干扰）are particularly bitter, as many jobs involve the processing of data that could easily be done by machines.This has raised questions about what it means for the CFA Institute, which offers chartered (受特许的)financial analyst qualifications (资格证书)to humans who pay a considerable fee to take the exams. If an AI algorithm（运算法则） can pass the CFA exam, it could threaten the CFA Institute's revenue model and potentially affect several hundred thousand bank employees.However, recent experiments have shown that GPT-4 is not yet capable of passing the CFA exam. The simulation scored only 8 out of a possible 24 points, demonstrating that faking logical thought is very different from fake reasoning through the application of rules and definitions. Humans still keep an edge in this area.The CFA exam relies heavily on memorization and pattern matching, rather than processing the meaning of each question. This has allowed humans to continue to take the advantage at the exam compared to machines that rely on algorithms and logical deductions （逻辑推理）.While the development of advanced AI may pose a threat to some industries, including finance, it appears that in the case of CFA accreditation, humans still have the upper hand. For now, those working in financial regulations and those responsible for setting exams in this field can breathe a small sigh of relief knowing their jobs are safe – at least for a little while longer.In conclusion, the release of GPT-4 has sparked concerns about its potential to disrupt the job market, especially in finance. However, experiments have demonstrated that AI still has limitations, particularly in areas requiring fake reasoning through memorized answers. While this news may reassure those in the finance industry, there is no denying that AI technology continues to transform many aspects of work and life.14、What is the CFA Institute?A. An organization that develops artificial intelligence algorithms.B. An organization that offers financial analyst qualifications.C. An organization that is threatened by the development of AI in finance.D. An organization responsible for setting exams for bank employees.15、Why are there concerns about GPT-4’s impact on the job market in finance?A. It could potentially replace humans in processing data.B. It is capable of passing the CFA exam and taking over jobs.C. The finance industry has been slow to adopt new technology.D. Bank employees are actively protesting against AI adoption.16、How do humans currently keep an upper hand over advanced AI in passing the CFA exam?A. They are better at memorization and pattern matching.B. They have greater logical reasoning abilities.C. They have access to more resources during the exam.D. They have a deeper understanding of financial regulations.17、How do recent experiments with GPT-4 affect the job market in finance?A. They demonstrate that humans' jobs are safe for the foreseeable future.B. They suggest that banks will soon be replacing humans with AI.C. They prove that AI has already surpassed humans in financial analysis.D. They have no impact on the job market.二、七选五18、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。

A French Digital Kitchen has been developed at Newcastle University in the UK.. It teaches students how to cook French food and speak French at the same time. For the first time , students can learn the language by the following cooking steps.All grammar and have been carefully chosen to make sure the users can understand French well. After learning for some time , the users can test themselves by doing a short test on the computer.The kitchen project was started by Professor Paul Seedhouse. He became interested in the idea after he visited another kind of talking kitchen . He said, “The purpose of the French Digital Kitchen is to make learning a language more interesting and more educational.”How does the kitchen work? There is a computer in the kitchen. With this computer , the users can first choose a French recipe that they want to follow . Using information in the computer, the kitchen starts to guide the users how to make a French dish. If you follow the instructions on the computer, it moves on to the next. If you go wrong, the program goes back and repeats the recipe or information.
