22、My legs were shaking, my heart pounding. As we neared the edge of the cliff, I double-checked all my equipment to make sure it was secure. I felt anxious, but not eager for my turn as I waited in line with the members of my group. Fear rose from the pit of my stomach as I realized there was no one else in front of me Slowly, I lowered myself to the edge of the nearly 200-foot cliff. My skin shook like a dozen earthquakes when

I reached the belay man, the person who hooked me to the belaying ropes, which keep me from falling. He hooked me up, and I slowly lowered myself over the edge of the cliff, breathed deeply, and went into a sitting position with both feet in front of me. I closed my eyes, gulped(大口吸气）, and began to go down.

Panic took over as I reached a point where my feet could no longer touch the rocky wall. The wall was right there, fooling me. My foot made contact with the wall, causing me to rotate. As I slowly began to spin around an interesting thing happened; my panic vanished. The beautiful view of the surrounding area overwhelmed(淹没；压倒）me. All the different-sized trees were evergreens, which seemed to blanket the hill-side. The forest was filled with life as different types of animals raced across my field of vision. As I looked up-ward the sky seemed to open up into a blue vastness. A sense of excitement overtook me. I'd been waiting for this moment, night and day, for one long month, and finally my dream had become a reality. I began to feel calmer and more relaxed.

As I finally neared the bottom of the cliff, there seemed to be less animal activity. Looking up, the cliff did not seem as frightening as it did going down. My feet were shaky when they finally touched the soft and muddy ground. Pride swelled up within me. Traveling on the muddy road, I began the long climb upward.

23、   Tired of seeing so much garbage along the bank of River Schie in Rotterdam Dutch artist Tommy Kleyn decided to step up and do something about it. He alone organized a cleanup of the entire bank without leaving any garbage, proving that anyone can indeed make a difference if they want to.

Kleyn would cycle past a part of the Rotterdam riverway and see so much garbage along the bank. The situation troubled him, so he decided to spend 30 minutes every day cleaning the place up, filling one garbage bag a time. And when he posted pictures of his work on Facebook, a few of his friends volunteered to join as well. In five weeks, they had a 100 meter riverbank clean and completely rubbish-free.

Kleyn's action has received great support online, and he has managed to turn it into a small movement. He has set up a Facebook page through which he challenges people to spend 30 minutes a year to fill a garbage bag with rubbish. “It feels great and you'll make a big difference," he wrote. “People are free to share their 'before' and 'after' pictures on the page. The challenge has attracted people in countries・ The people came from as far as China to respond with their own photos and stories!"

“I want to show how easy it is to remove rubbish," he added. “Hopefully there will come a time when makers are thoughtful and their goods are no longer wrapped in layers of plastic."

Local officials praised Kleyn's work on the riverbank and helped him raise money for future projects as well. “People can sign up to help me one day a year. For this, they received a coupon, like going to a local restaurant at the lowest price. You can imagine what I've man- aged to do in 22 days, and what 22 men could do in a day. he said.

24、   Thirst is one of the fundamental urges a living thing can have. After all, water is the solvent that we rely on to transport essential molecules (分子) around our bodies to keep us alive. So it is perhaps a bit suspicious that water doesn’t seem to have any flavor. Shouldn’t we have evolved a taste for this essential substance?

Well, perhaps we have. Several new studies seem to indicate not only that water does, in fact, have a taste, but that we might have taste buds (味蕾) that respond directly to it.

We now know that there are at least five basic tastes: salty, sour, sweet, bitter and umami. If there is a sixth taste for water, then we should be able to see evidence for it somewhere in the mouth or tongue. Yuki Oka and his colleagues have sought to solve the issue once and for all. They have thought up an experiment that seeks to identify any water sensing taste receptor cells (TRCs) on the tongues of lab mice.

The team first used a technique known as genetic knockout to silence different types of TRCs, in order to remove the possibility that those cells might accidentally discover some other taste within the water besides the water itself. They then flushed the rodents’ mouths with water to see if any cells were still responding. It turned out that the acid-sensing sour TRCs were still firing vigorously indicating these cells might have a double purpose, capable of distinguishing water or acidic fluids.

So if you are on the side of the debate that argues that water is flavorless, you might still be correct. But water isn’t senseless. At least it doesn’t appear that way according to this research. The study also opens up the possibility that our tongues and taste buds might be doing more than merely providing us with a sense of taste. If this study doesn’t prove that water is the sixth flavor, it might nonetheless be the first evidence of a whole other sense entirely: a water sense.

【1】Why is the question asked in the first paragraph?

A.To introduce the main topic.

B.To show ordinary people’s puzzlement.

C.To express the writer’s curiosity.

D.To explain the reason for suspicion.

【2】What does the underlined word “rodents” refer to?

A.Researchers. B.Yuki oka’s colleagues.

C.Thirsty people D.Mice.

【3】It can be inferred that genetic knockout is a technique ________.

A.to create some cells B.to remove some cells

C.to identify some certain cells D.to disable some cells

【4】What can be leaned from the experiment?

A.Water is flavors without doubt.

B.Water is the sixth flavor.

C.Water can be sensed.

D.Water can attack TRCs.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一个完整的短文。

The New York City sun was shining and no amount of air conditioning could help ease the discomfort from the burning heat. The numerous buildings rose tall above the tree lines in Central Park, seeing over the busy streets filled with crowds of workers dressed in gray and black suits, rushing to be on time for work.

Peter, an officer, walked out of his company to get brunch and buy groceries as he always did. He was a young man, dressed in a loose, white T-shirt and basketball shorts. He was wandering about the streets, easing his way through the crowd, listening to his favorite songs through his earphones.

Upon his usual route to his favorite restaurant, his joyful pace came to a stop when he felt a faint smell of smoke carried by the warm wind. He took out his earphones and looked around to see if anyone else was alarmed by the stench (恶臭). The crowd began to slow down as more people stopped at this smell. Fire trucks raced by with their alarms and Peter, along with the people around him, started to become worried. Then he saw thick, black smoke starting to cloud the blue skies. In curiosity, Peter headed in the direction of the smoke to find its source.

His heart was racing as the awful smell of the smoke strengthened. When the clouds of smoke were finally directly above him, Peter saw a huge building in flames, starting to fall down to ashes. When he finally emerged in the front, the big red flames were licking (舔) the sides of the walls and columns of fire shot through the roof.

When he finally was able to shake himself out of a state of shock, he saw a sign that said “Moving Company”. He remembered that morning his brother, Ryann told him and their mother their company was scheduled to deliver a shipment that day. And Ryann was in the building!

“I cannot leave Ryann alone in the building,” thought Peter.
