When we seem to have finally obtained things we’ve worked hard for, most of us tend to think that we can relax and enjoy life. 1 , life has some rude awakenings for us.This was the 2 for Stevie. He worked hard and years later, he was able to buy a really nice home on a cliff 3 the ocean. It seemed that all his work 4 and that he had finally realized his dream.Well, as life would have it, along came the events over which he had no 5 . Above all, the cliff started to erode（风化）badly from the 6 winds and rains over the years. What was once a one-hundred-foot backyard was rapidly 7 week by week, and to make matters even 8 , he became badly ill to the point 9 he had to take lots of time off from work.Then, the most tragic things happened. The backyard totally disappeared and what was 10 was the back of the house sitting dangerously on the edge of the cliff. What was even more destructive was that he had no house insurance 11 the family could not get any from insurance companies who knew of the 12 . No insurance, and so sick that he couldn’t work—now what? A person who thought he had finally reached the 13 and now only to find almost everything had disappeared through no 14 of his own.The good news was that he wasn’t done—friends, neighbors and even those who didn’t know him 15 responded to fund-raisers to help them start over.Life has a way of 16 and kicking us from behind and even kicking again when we are really down. But life also gives us a way 17 if we don’t give up. There is kindness and comfort 18 —an opportunity to start again if we have a 19 to move forward.

The cellulose(纤维素)in carrots and other root vegetables, unlike other fibrous materials like wood or cotton, is easy to separate out from the rest of the biowaste.The scientists call the material Curran, after the Gaelic word for carrot. And they set out to show that it could be used to replace glass or carbon fibers. They say it’s nearly twice as strong and slightly lighter than carbon. They would just go to buy in their local grocery store. But they soon realized that the carrot actually worked well and that they could turn to agricultural waste to source their material. They found that the smartest, most ecologically responsible use for the nanofibers was for protective sporting goods. And in particular, motorcycle helmets, which have to be both strong and light. That’s right: Motorcycle helmets of the future might be made from carrots, not carbon.The question here, first of all, was to see what could be a possible market for such a new fiber, from an ecological point but also from the eco nomic and technical angles too, “David Hepworth says. That’s where the helmet comes in. They found that protective sporting goods, which need stiff, strong, light fibers and low economic overhead, were some of the best use cases for Curran. David Hepworth and his team are also looking at the possibility of using it in surfboards and insulation(隔离板)for mobile homes.The challenge now is taking the material from the lab to mass production. And, making sure that it’s still ecologically smart on a grander scale. It doesn’t make sense to develop a material from biowaste if there’s no use for it. Or if turning it into a useable product takes more energy than the non-renewable choice.21. Why was the carrot chosen by the Scottish scientists at first?A. It worked best.B. It could be convenient to get.C. It is easy to be broken into pieces.D. It did little harm to the environment.22. What is special about Curran compared with other fibers?A. Its shape.B. Its length.C. Its quality.D. Its weight.23. Which is a challenge for using the new material mentioned at present?A. How to use it widely.B. How to make it cheaper.C. How to study it out of the lab.D. How to get it in large amounts.24. Which can best serve as the title for the text?A. Ways to Reuse Biological WastesB. Coming Helmets Made of CarrotsC. The Solutions to Dangerous RidingD. The Challenge in Producing HelmetsBIntelligent people are more likely to trust others, while those who score lower on measures of intelligence are less likely to do so. Oxford University researchers based their finding on an analysis of the ‘General Social Survey’.The authors say one explanation could be that more intelligent individuals are better at judging charactersand may spend more time building relationships with people they can trust. Another reason could be that smarter people are better at weighing up situations and assessing whether or not the other person will hold up his or her end of a bargain.“Intelligence is shown to be linked with trusting others.”said the study’s lead author, Noah Carl of Oxford University, “This finding supports what other researchers have argued, namely that being a good judge of character is a distinct part of human intelligence.”In addition, the study shows that individuals who are more trusting are also happier with their lives and had higher levels of physical health. The Oxford researchers found, however, that the links between trust and health, and between trust and happiness, are not explained by intelligence. The findings confirmed that trust is a valuable resource for an individual, and is not simply a measure of intelligence.The authors say the research is significant because the study of social trust could have far-reaching implications in public welfare, as social trust contributes to the success of important social institutions, such as welfare systems and financial markets.According to Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, trust is in increasingly short supply in current generation. This decline threatens world leaders’ability to handle some of today’s key challenges like global warming, and the political system. There are good reasons to think that governments should try to develop more trust in society.Distrust usually causes friction in personal relationships, careers and politics among others, says Stephen Covey. Although majority of people say that trust can never be restored once it’s broken, Stephen feels it can be brought back. “It’s not easy, it takes time, but you do it through your behavior, not just things you say.”25. It can be concluded from the analysis of the General Social Survey that ______.A. intelligent people tend to show more trust in othersB. judgment of characters determines the level of intelligenceC. intelligence accounts for the connection between trust and healthD. intelligent individuals spend less time on interpersonal relationship26. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Make the best of a situation.B. Stick to one’s promise as agreed.C. Figure out the true value of a bargain.D. Make an assessment of a deal.27. According to the research, higher level of social trust is ______.A. a decisive basis for stable political systemB. a basic step to deal with global warmingC. a contributing factor to successful public institutionsD. a complete solution to interpersonal conflicts28. When it comes to rebuilding trust, Stephen is most likely to agree that ______.A. actions always speak louder than wordsB. behavior is a mirror in which everyone shows his imageC. behavior is largely determined by mindD. action is the proper fruit of knowledge三、七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Visiting London can be an expensive trip. 29 The following steps can help you find cheap alternatives for transport for your London trip.◆Familiarize yourself with the city.
