26、Scientists at the University of Massachusetts(UMass) announced recently that they have worked out how to design a biofilm (生物膜) that collects the energy in evaporation (蒸发) and changes it to electricity. This biofilm, which was announced in Nature, has the ability to change the world of wearable electronics, powering everything from personal medical sensors (感应器) to personal electronics.

“This is a very impressive technology,” says Li Xiumeng, a graduate student in electrical and computer energy, “and unlike other so-called ‘green-energy’ sources, its production is absolutely green.”

That is because this biofilm—which is a sheet of bacterial cells (细菌细胞) and as thin as a sheet of paper—is produced naturally by an improved version of the bacterium Geo. Geo is known to produce electricity and has been used before in “microbial batteries” to power electrical equipment. But such batteries require that Geo be properly cared for and fed a continuous diet. By contrast, this new biofilm, which can supply as much energy as a battery of the similar size, works continuously, because it is dead. And because it is dead, it doesn’t need to be fed.

The secret behind this new biofilm is that it makes energy from the moisture (水分) on your skin. While we daily read stories about solar power (太阳能), at least 50%of the solar energy reaching the earth goes toward evaporating water. “This is a huge, undiscovered source of energy,” says Ye Xun, professor of electrical and computer engineering at UMass, and the paper’s one senior author. Since the surface of our skin is always wet with sweat, the biofilm can make use of it and change the energy locked in evaporation into enough energy to power small equipment. “Our next step is to increase the size of our film to power more smarter wearable electronics,” says Ye, and Li points out that one of the goals is to power entire electronic systems, rather than single equipment.

【1】Which can biofilm do according to Paragraph 1?

A．Invent wearable electronics.

B．Get power from evaporation.

C．Supply energy to microbial batteries.

D．Produce more electricity than before.

【2】The biofilm is better than “microbial batteries” because .

A．it is relatively thinner

B．it is environmentally friendly

C．it applies a rare energy source

D．it decreases the cost in usage

【3】What do Ye and Li think of the future of the biofilm?

A．Doubtful.

B．Bright.

C．Unclear.

D．Harmful.

【4】What is the purpose of the text?

A．To introduce us to a new biofilm.

B．To describe the disadvantages of the biofilm.

C．To compare the new biofilm with others.

D．To change people’s view on the new biofilm.

27、Shakespeare once wrote: “Neither a borrower nor A lender be;For loan (借款) often loses both itself and friend”. It’s often explained and used as a warning about the dangers of lending, and how you could risk a friendship through it. But why can lending money be so detrimental to our friendships?

If our friend or family member comes to us for hard cash, it can be very difficult to turn them away. You feel under pressure to help. And if that money doesn’t come back, it can lead to fights or even legal battles. So how can we, as the lender, avoid these problems? According to Bradley T. Klontz, an expert in financial psychology (心理学), there are some steps you can take.

Understanding why there is an unavoidable risk to lending anything to a friend is the first thing. And it’s not just the risk of losing the money, but the friendship could also be in danger. This is because, psychologically speaking, the action of lending has changed the balance of power. The lender becomes superior (高一级的), while the borrower may feel awkward with the new arrangement. Likewise, if you try to advise them on what to do with the money, it might make things difficult between you two. In other words, let go - and see it as their money.

And if you can’t afford to lend something, don’t. Saying “no” is hard when a friend comes asking, but if you need that money, refusing them is probably the safest course of action. If you still feel the need to lend, making a legally binding (有法律约束的) agreement and putting things down in writing could guarantee instalments (分期付款) or deadlines. But, some friends may not take too kindly to being asked to make it official - seeing it as a lack of trust.

Finally, for some, it’s best to just see the money as a gift and be pleasantly surprised if something comes back. And if you do want to keep your friendship, when you need to borrow some money, perhaps a bank is a better option.

【1】What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 1 probably mean?

A．beneficial

B．important

C．necessary

D．harmful

【2】According to this passage, which statement will the writer support?

A．You’d rather be a lender than a borrower.

B．Whether you lend it or not, your friendship will be unbalanced.

C．Sometimes refusing is not a bad option.

D．If you are true friends, you will lend your money to your friends.

【3】How does the writer develop paragraph 3?

A．By listing examples.

B．By making comparison.

C．By analyzing data.

D．By explaining cause and effect.

【4】If you are a borrower, which action is proper according to this passage?

A．Borrow from your family members rather than your friend.

B．Borrow the money from the bank.

C．Borrow the money from your friend and see him (her) as superior.

D．Borrow the money and see it as yours.

The big day had finally arrived. I had won the local speech contest, representing Madison Middle School. Here it was the state competition. I waited backstage for the host to announce my name.

Even though I had practiced much, I was extremely nervous. My heart was thumping, my palms were sweating, and my mouth was dry. “Calm down,” I told myself. Still, picturing an audience of teachers, parents and classmates made me want to disappear totally.

Mr. Patrick, who taught me to give speeches, reminded me, “You’ll do great. You’re prepared. You’ve come this far.”

Mr. Patrick was right. I was ready for this, and besides, I won first place in the earlier contests. Yet, when I pictured all eyes on me waiting for me to mess up, my heart was gradually sinking into my stomach.

“You can’t back out now” I told myself as Mr. Nichols, the host, announced my name and the title of my speech, “My Hero.”

请你写出接下来主人公演讲的过程，以及演讲结束后激动的心情。
