AEve was waiting in the corridor outside her class. She was feeling sick. She had two exams that day and physics was first. She really hated physics. It was her worst subject.

So what's wrong with you and Lisa?” asked Tina, “I thought you were friends.” “Yes, so did I,” said Eve. “But she hasn't spoken to me for two weeks now. She promised to help me review for the physics exam too, but then she’s ignored all my calls and texts.”While in the exam, Eve found Lisa was holding her phone on her knee under the table and reading from it. Eve couldn’t believe it! Is that how Lisa always got such good grades? She thought about telling the teacher, but she hesitated.The next exam was history.

The purpose of this passage is to _______.A. make an advertisement for the museumB. encourage adults to bring their children thereC. show what is on display in the museumD. attract people to explore the universeCFashion refers to the styles of dress that are currently popular. Fashion goes beyond just clothes, though. It’s important for some people to wear only the latest fashions and styles. For others, though, keeping up with trends (潮流) isn’t that important. The one thing that stays the same with fashion is this: it always changes!In the 1960s and 1970s, hippies made bell-bottomed blue jeans popular. In the 1980s, Michael Jackson made parachute pa nts all the fashion. Now try to find these items in today’s clothing stores!Why do fashions change? The answer is probably as simple as the fact that people change. Over time, the new replaces the old. People are influenced greatly by popular culture, including athletes, musicians, movie stars, as well as popular films, televisions shows, books and music. We are also influenced by the fashion industry’s advertising.The stars of popular culture are always searching for a new angle to maintain (保持) their popularity. Often these new angles come in the form of new clothing or hairstyles. When people see these new styles, they often want to imita te their favorite stars. To do so, they seek out the latest fashions to make themselves look like the people they want to imitate. In this way, fashions evolve and change over time.For years, clothes have been used to separate people into groups. Even today, brand-name clothing that is more expensive than other types of clothing can be used by some people to distinguish themselves from others. Unfortunately, this can often have the effect of distancing certain groups from others.Don’t forget that it’s always OK to develop your own sense of style that is unique and separate from what the fashion world determines! Stay true to yourself and let your personality — not your clothes — speak for who you are.28. The examples of bell-bottomed blue jeans and parachute pants in Paragraph 3 are used to showthat _______.A. people often have different dressing stylesB. trends of fashion are changing all the timeC. people are always affected greatly by the starsD. hippies and Michael Jackson are good designers29. Fashion change mainly because _______.A. new films and shows replace the oldB. movie stars are changing over timeC. popular culture influences peopleD. advertisements change rapidly30. We can learn from the text that _______.A. clothes may separate and distance peopleB. people like imitating others’ dressing styleC. the author has clearly gone out of fashionD. fashion is all about clothes people wear31. In the last paragraph, the author mainly wants to stress _______.A. the advantages of staying unique and separateB. the bad effects of following fashions and stylesC. the good benefits of popular styles to peopleD. the importance of having one’s own personalityDDarek Fidyka, a 38-year-old Bulgarian, had been paralyzed (瘫痪的) from the chest down for four years after a knife attack. Scientists from Britain and Poland took c ells from his nose, transplanted (移植) them into his back and re-grew his spinal cord (脊髓). Now he can walk and even drive a car. The doctors were delighted but said it was the first step in a long journey.The breakthrough came after 40 years of research by Professor Geoff Raisman, who found that cells had the possibility to repair damage to nasal (鼻腔的) nerves, the only part of the nervous system that constantly re-grows. “The idea was to take something from an area where the nervous system can repair itself and put it into an area that doesn’t repair itself,” Professor Raisman said.Polish doctors injected (注射) the nasal cells into Mr Fidyka’s spinal cord above the injury and used some nerves from his ankle to form a bridge across the damaged tissue. The nasal cells appear to have caused the spinal nerves to repair themselves.Professor Raisman achieved this with rats in the late 1990’s, but this is his greatest success.“I think the moment of discovery for me was Christmas in 1997 when I first saw a rat, which couldn’t control its hand, put its hand out to me. That was an exciting moment, because I realized then that my belief that the nervous system could be repaired was true.”Doctors chose the easiest case for their first attempt—it might not work for others. But there is a real sense of hope that an idea once thought impossible has been realized.David Nicholls, who helped provide money for the breakthrough, said information about the breakthrough would be made available to researchers across the globe.“What you’ve got to understand is that for three million paralyzed people in the world today, the world looks a totally brighter place than it did yesterday,” he said.32. Why did Professor Geoff Raisman choose cells from the nose?A. The nervous system in the nose can repair itself.B. Cells from the nose can be easily transplanted.C. The nervous system in the nose has more cells.D. Cells in the nose are able to re-produce rapidly.33. How did the operation work for Darek Fidyka?A. The nervous system in the spinal nerves can repair itself.B. The nerves from his ankle cured the patient of the injury.C. The nasal cells re-produced and spread over very quickly.D. The nasal cells helped the spinal nerves to repair themselves.34. What made Professor Geoff Raisman begin to believe the nervous system can be repaired?A. His former study with other people.B. His operation on a paralyzed patient.C. His sudden thought about Christmas.D. His unusual experience with a sick rat.35. David Nicholls’ words suggest that _______.A. the world will become a better and brighter placeB. paralyzed people of today have the hope of recoveryC. the report of the breakthrough will be published soonD. researchers across the world will carry out the operation第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。
