　　第一节 (共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分

　　A

　　Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a necessary part of the learning process. But all too often we convey to our children either by words or by actions that failure is something to be ashamed of, that nothing but top performance meets our approval(赞许).

　　Donnie was my youngest third-grader. His fear of failure kept him from classroom games that other children played excitedly. He seldom answered questions — he might be wrong. He seldom finished his work because he repeatedly checked with me to be sure he hadn’t made a mistake.

I tried my best to build his self-confidence. But nothing changed until midterm, when Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned to our classroom. She was young and pretty, and she loved children. My pupils, Donnie included her. But even enthusiastic, loving Mary was baffled by this little boy who feared he might make a mistake.

　　Then one morning we were working math problems. Donnie had copied the problems with painstaking neatness and filled in answers for the first row. Pleased with his progress, I left he children with Mary. But when I returned. Donnie was in tears. He’d missed the third problem.

　　Mary looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face brightened. From the desk we shared, she got a canister(小筒)filled with pencils.

　　“Look, Donnie,” she said. “I’ve got something to show you.” She removed the pencils and placed them on his desk. “See these pencils, Donnie?” she continued. “They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me. See how the erasers are worn? That’s because we make mistakes too. Lots of them. But we erase the mistakes and try again. That’s what you must learn to do, too.”

　　She kissed him and continued: “I’ll leave one of these pencils on your desk so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, even teachers.” Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and just a glimmer(少许)of a smile.

　　The Pencil became Donnie’s prized possession. That, together with Anne’s frequent encouragement and praise for even Donnie’s small successes. gradually persuaded him that it’s all right to make mistakes — as long as you erase them and try again.

　　21. Why did Donnie rarely finish his work?

　　A. Because he seldom answered those difficult questions

　　B. Because he spent too much time checking his answers

　　C. Because he couldn’t work together with his classmates

　　D. Because he never did his work until the very last minute

　　22. The word “baffled” in Paragraph 3 most probably means .

　　A. encouraged B. impressed C. satisfied D. confused

　　23. Which of the following words best describe Mary Anne as she is shown in the article?

　　A. Patient and inspiring B. Creative and modest

　　C. Determined and strict D. Considerate and proud

　　Elephants have impressed us for centuries. They are big, clever, and sociable. But what if someone told you that they may also hold the key to fighting cancer?

　　People have been wondering why elephants do not develop cancer, even though they have life spans(寿命)that are similar to humans, living for around 50 to 70 years.

　　Now scientists believe they know why. A team at the University of Chicago, Us has found that elephants carry a large number of genes that stop tumors(肿瘤)from developing. To be precise. They found 20 copies of an anti-tumor gene called TP 53 in elephants. Most other species. Humans included, only carry one copy.

　　According to the research, which was recently published on the online science network BioRxiv, the extra copies of the gene improved the animal’s sensitivity to DNA damage. This lets the cells(细胞)quickly kill themselves when damaged before they can to on to form deadly tumors.

　　“An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evolution of large body sizes in many animals,” study author Dr Vincent Lynch told The Guardian. If every living cell has the same chance of becoming cancerous, large creatures with long life spans like whales and elephants should have a greater risk of developing cancer than humans and mice do. But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.

　　This phenomenon was found by Oxford University scientist Richard Peto in the 1970s and later named “Peto’s paradox”. Evolutionary biologists believe it results from larger animals using protection that many smaller do not, In the elephant’s case, the making of TP53 is nature’s way of keeping this species alive.

The study also found that when the same genes were brought to life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance as elephants. This means researchers could use the discovery to develop new treatments that can help stop cancers from spreading or even developing in the first place.

　　“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer,” said Joshua Schiffman, an oncologist at the School of Medicine, University of Utah, US.

　　“It’s up to us to learn how different animals tackle(对付)the problem so we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people.”

　　25. Why are elephants unlikely to develop cancer?

　　A. They have a large body size

　　B. Their genes suffer no DNA damage

　　C. Certain genes in their body kill existing tumors

　　D. They carry many genes that keep tumors form developing

　　26. According to Dr. Vincent Lynch, what has been a risk in the evolution of large animals?

　　A. Extreme weather B. Human behavior

　　C. A risk of deadly tumors D. Cells killing themselves

　　27. What does the underlined expression “this phenomenon” on the sixth paragraph refer to?

　　A. Larger animals have protection from TP53

　　B. The risk of cancer is not related to body size

　　C. The larger animals are, the bigger risk of cancer they have

　　D. Larger animals suffer the same risk of cancer as smaller ones do

　　28. We can conclude from the last three paragraphs that .

　　A. the TP53 genes have proven useful in stopping cancer in mice

　　B. depending on nature is not enough to fight against cancer

　　C. this new treatment is more effective than the present ones

　　D. humans are expected to stop cancer in the near future

　　Brawn Nelson knew he wanted to be a doctor at 8 after he acted as a doctor on a primary school career day.

　　He faced more difficulties than many to get there; His family came to Florida, US as refugees(难民)from Haiti and “had almost nothing”. He worried about how to pay for college.

　　But Nelson got a head start(领先)in his medical career.

　　He participated in the Health Careers Outreach Program that aims to help poor minority students to get close to the medical field.

　　At middle school, he attended classes taught by medical students from Florida Atlantic University. He dissected(解剖)rats, comparing their organs to those found in humans.

　　As a high schooler, he worked on the same cadavers(医用尸体)as the medical students. He also visited the university’s lab and practiced treating patients using high-tech models.

　　Experiences like those and make all the difference for students an they work toward medical school, said Nirmala Prakash, head of the program.

　　“This is not a pipe dream where they’re trying to imagine it, ” she said. “This is something they’ve lived.”

　　Now 18 and headed to the University of Florida on a full scholarship, Nelson is a model graduate of the program, In four years, the program has graduated 50 students, Like Nelson, each one has been accepted to college, many with scholarships.

　　Randy Scheid, an official of Quantum that funded(资助)the program, said the program was important for the area.

“Our cunty is very diverse.” Said Scheid. “It’s important to have doctors who can understand their patients’ backgrounds.”

　　The program can be meaningful for individual families, too.

　　“A lot of these kids are the first one in their family to go to college” said Prakash. “you’re changing an entire generation.”

　　For Nelson, the experience helped him “ not waste time” in trying to get to the career his heart was set on.

　　He says he can’t wait for his college life.

　　“I’m ready,” Nelson said, laughing. “ I’m ready to start a whole new chapter in my life and to see where it will lead me. ”

　　Getting more followers is something we usually associate with social media or micro messaging apps, But soon we could all have a new type of follower-a robotic one.

　　Dozens of robots and technology fans gathered in Boston, US, earlier this month for the RoboBusiness conference. The latest developments in the world of robotics were shown to the public and this time the trend was robots following people.

　　Perhaps the most exciting development on show was the ability of drones(无人机)to follow you from the air, acting as your own personal cameraman or photographer. One example is 3-D Robotics’ Iris+ drone, developed by a US-based company.

　　The drone is fitted with cameras and has a “follow me” function. It connects with your GPS-enabled Android device(设备), like a mobile phone. Then it flies and follows you around, shooting action footage(影片)of you from above. The soft-ware in the drone makes sure that you’re always in the center of the frame.

　　It can keep working for 15 minutes, as long as there aren’t too many trees for it to crash into. This could be exciting for anyone who loves action sports or wants to be the star of their own short film.

　　But what if you want to be one of those celebrities who have helpers carrying all their bags and doing all their chores? A robot called Budgee can help.

　　Budgee, made by 5 Elements Robotics. Is literally a basket on wheels. It is designed to help elderly and disabled people, or simply anyone who doesn’t have enough arms for grocery bage, Wired magazine reported. It can carry up to 22.7 kg of items.

　　To make Budgee follow them, its owner will have to wear a small device and use an app to set the distance between themselves and the robot. Budgee even sends a text message when it can’t keep up with its owner.

“I want you to look at the robot like he’s your buddy, he’s your friend. There’s a relationship you develop with the robot,” Wendy Roberts, CEO of 5 Elements Robotics, told gigaom. com.

　　It might not be quite the same as robotic assistants we’ve seen in movies such as Disney’s Wall-E，where robots cater for (满足)our every need，but that idea doesn’t seem quite so far-fetched(不着边际的)now.

　　33. The drone developed by a US-based company can .

　　A. decide who to put in the center of the frame

　　B. fly around you and take videos from above

　　C. be used to take pictures and make phone calls

　　D. keep working for 15 minutes in any conditions

　　34. According to the article，Budgee is most likely to be targeted at .

　　A. staff in supermarkets B. elderly and disabled people

　　C. those who love action sports D. celebrities who need a close buddy

　　35. The main purpose of the article is to .

　　A. urge people to buy the drone and Budgee

　　B. tell the reader about two new types of robots

　　C. call on people to develop relationships with robots

　　D. analyze why the two types of robots can lead a trend
