21、   I grew up in a middle-class household in Australia. In terms of safety and standard of living，a comfortable lifestyle is all I ever knew，and as a result，I was not aware just how lucky I was.

It was a Monday，and a teacher told us about an oversea mission trip to Cambodia. I had never been overseas before，and I knew absolutely nothing about Cambodia，but something inside of me knew l needed to go on this trip.

I spent the next few months working on S7. 25 hourly wage at an awful fast food chain，saving every penny I earned. Just days before the trip was set to depart，I managed to hit my target.

I will never forget the moment I nervously stepped off the plane in Cambodia. I vividly recall the sight of malnourished （营养不良）children begging for money tearing at my heart. I saw what true poverty looked like as we went to hand food packages out at a massive garbage dump in the city，home to thousands of families，many of whom were forced to seek for food among the rubbish.

On the following days，I played with children who，despite living in hard conditions, were overflowing with joy and happiness. I met families who，despite having nothing，were some of the kindest people I'd ever met. For the first time，my eyes were opened to the reality that happiness is not defined by money. People here were rich in relationships and community，and shared with each other the little that they had.

Through the trip，I began to see the value of learning from people of other races，cultures and religions. I finally saw that there was a much bigger world outside of my little one，and experienced first-hand the beauty of human diversity.

【1】How did the author react when hearing about the overseas mission trip?

A. she considered it a little bit risky.

B. She really looked forward to taking it.

C. She hesitated in the first place.

D. She imagined a lot about Cambodia.

B. They were poor but had their simple pleasure

C. They struggled very hard to become rich.

D. They were really bad at building relationships.

【4】What was the biggest benefit the author got from the trip?

A. She got some work experience.

B. She learnt to be independent.

C. She made friends with some locals.

D. She learned about the outside world.

22、On a typical day, off the coast of a small Brazilian island, Pereira headed out to fish. He was disheartened to find that an oil leak had polluted the waters. Staring out at the waves with their oil sheen(光泽), he decided it was not a good day to fish. But walking on the beach that day, he found a struggling penguin, covered in oil and starving.

Pereira took the penguin home, gently cleaned it and spent the next week nursing it back to health. He named it Dindim, which belongs to a species known for living in the seas of South America. In order to bear babies, they must return to Patagonia, 8,000 kilometers from Pereira’s home. Pereira patiently took Dindim back to the ocean and taught it how to swim again. Soon enough, it was time for Dindim to return to life in the wild. Pereira watched Dindim swim away, believing it would be the last time he saw it.

But the next June,Dindim returned. The two shared a warm-hearted greeting, and Dindim stayed for a month,wandering around the fisherman’s house. The time to leave arrived, and Pereira thought this surely would be the last time he would see Dindim. But in the same month of the year after next, the penguin with a long memory returned again.

It is a common belief among scientists that animals have short memories. So, a couple of them put a tracking device on Dindim to seeif it was indeed the same penguin that returned year after year. To their surprise, but not Pereira’s, Dindim returned, year after year, for more than a decade.

【1】Why was Pereira upset about his fishing that day?

A．His fish was eaten up by a penguin.

B．The waves were too huge to fish.

C．His fishing area was polluted by oil.

D．It was too cold for him to fish outside.

【2】What did Pereira do for Dindim?

A．He abandoned it into the oily water.

B．He drove it away from the danger.

C．He fished it out from the sea.

D．He rescued it from danger.

【3】How long apart do Pereira and Dindim get reunited?

A．10 months.

B．11 months.

C．12 months.

D．13 months.

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．Scientists generally think much of animals’ memories.

B．Pereira is quite sure about his friendship with Dindim.

C．It’s not the same penguin that returns to Pereira’s home.

D．The tracking device was used to find where Dindim went.

23、In some ways, learning to programme a computer is similar to learning a new language. It requires learning new symbols and terms, which must be organized correctly to instruct the computer what to do. The computer code must also be clear enough that other programmers can read and understand it.

In spite of those similarities, MIT neuroscientists (神经科学家) have found that reading computer code doesn’t activate the regions of the brain that are involved in language processing. Instead, it activates a distributed network called the multiple demand network, which is also related to complex tasks such as solving maths problems or crossword puzzles.

Although reading computer code activates the multiple demand network, it appears to rely more on different parts of the network than maths or logic problems do. “Understanding computer code seems to be its own thing. It isn’t the same as language, and it isn’t the same as maths and logic,” says Anna Ivanova, an MIT graduate student and the lead author of the study.

Evelina Fedorenko is the senior author of the paper, which appears today in eLife. A major focus of her research is the relationship between language and other cognitive (认知) functions. In particular，she has been studying the question of whether other functions rely on the brain’s language network, which includes Broca’s area and other regions in the left hemisphere (半球) of the brain. In previous work, her lab has shown that music and maths don’t appear to activate this language network.

There are two schools of thought regarding how the brain learns to code, she says. One holds that in order to be good at programming，you must be good at maths. The other suggests that because of the parallels between coding and language, language skills might be more relevant. To clarify this issue, the researchers set out to study whether brain activity patterns while reading computer code would overlap (重叠) with language-related brain activity.

【1】What’s paragraph 1 mainly about?

A．The computer must be instructed what to do.

B．Programming requires new symbols and terms.

C．The computer code must be clear and understandable.

D．There are similarities between programming and language learning.

【2】What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 mean?

A．Reading computer code is different from other cognitive tasks.

B．Learning languages is different from learning maths or logic.

C．Language, maths and logic are relatively easier to learn.

D．Reading computer code is more challenging.

【3】What might the researchers do next?

A．Set up two schools to study how the brain learns to code.

B．Research deeper into the parallels between coding and language.

C．Figure out the relationship between programming and learning maths.

D．Compare activity patterns of reading code with those of learning language.

【4】What field can the research findings be applied to?

A．Health.

B．Commerce.

C．Education.

D．Medicine

24、The Art of Healing

If no further evidence available of the sophistication of China in the Tang Dynasty, then a look at Chinese medicine would be sufficient. At the western end of the Eurasian continent, the Roman empire disappeared, and there was nowhere new to claim the important position of the cultural and political centre of the world. In fact, for a few centuries, the centre happened to be the capital of the Tang Empire, which boasted its national health service, and Chinese medicine under the Tang was far ahead of European medicine. The organizational context of health and healing was structured to a degree that had never happened in China before and found a similar one nowhere else.

An Imperial Medical Office had been inherited from previous dynasties: it was immediately restructured and staffed with directors, chief and assistant medical directors, pharmacists and managers of medicinal herb gardens. Within the first two decades after enforcing its rule, the Tang administration set up one central and several provincial medical colleges to train students in one or all of the departments of medicine, acupuncture (针灸) and physical therapy. Physicians were given positions in governmental medical service only after passing qualifying exams. They were paid according to the number of cures they had effected during the past year.

In 723, Emperor Xuanzong personally composed a formulary of prescriptions（方剂集）recommended to him by an imperial pharmacist and sent it to all the provincial medical schools. An Arabic traveller, who visited China in 851, noted with surprise that prescriptions from the emperor’s formulary were posted on notice boards at crossroads to enhance the welfare of the population.

The government protected people from potentially harmful medical practice. The Tang legal code was the first in China to include laws concerned with harmful medical practice. For example, to treat patients for money without following standard procedures was defined as deceiving combined with theft and had to be tried as theft. If such therapies resulted in death of a patient, the healer was to be sent to a remote place for years. In case a physician purposely failed to practice according to the standards, he was to be tried as murdering. Even if no harm resulted, he was to be punished.

【1】In the 1st paragraph, the writer draws particular attention to ________.

A．the lack of medical knowledge in China prior to the Tang Dynasty

B．the Western interest in Chinese medicine during the Tang Dynasty

C．the systematic approach taken to medical issues during the Tang Dynasty

D．the differences between Chinese and Western cultures during the Tang Dynasty

【2】During the Tang Dynasty, a government doctor’s salary depended upon ________.

A．the effectiveness of his treatment

B．the wealth of his medical experience

C．the number of physicians he had trained

D．the width of his medical knowledge

【3】Which of the following was thought to be against the law during the Tang Dynasty?

A．A qualified doctor’s refusal to practise.

B．The use of unapproved medical practice.

C．The death of a patient under medical treatment.

D．The receipt of money for medical treatment.

【4】What is this passage mainly talking about？

A．The differences existed between ancient Chinese and European medicine.

B．The government of the Tang Dynasty set up medical colleges to train students.

C．Emperor Xuanzong published a formulary of prescriptions.

D．The national medical system in Tang Dynasty put Europe’s in the shade.
