26、   How far can scientists let their curiosity go? The Ig Nobel Prize, a spoof (滑稽模仿) of the prestigious (权威的) Nobel Prize, exists to award unusual or unimportant achievements in scientific research.

The awards are given every year to the 10 strangest research projects of the year. It is to "honor achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think"

On September 12, the 2019 winners of the Ig Nobel Prize were announced. Here are three of them.

Medicine Prize: Pizza

It's one of the world's most popular foods. but what if we told you that a pizza can protect you against illness and death? According to the Ig Nobel Medicine Prize winner, eating more pizzas can lower the risk of cancer and heart disease---if your pizza is filled with fruits and veggies. These provide flavonoids (类黄酮) to fight against certain diseases. So, if you're a pizza enthusiast, you now have one more reason to love it!

Economics Prize: Dirty Money

As one of the most frequently passed items on the planet, paper money is known to pick up all kinks of bacteria (细菌). Which country's money is the dirtiest? To find the answer, an international team of scientist compared seven countries' paper money. They found that the notes including more polymer (聚合物) specifically the Romanian Leu carry more drug-resistant pathogens (病原体). Perhaps this will make cashless payments popular.

Biology Prize: Cockroach(蟑螂)

Cockroaches are well known for their survival abilities, but few people know they can sense magnetic (磁性的) fields. More surprisingly, an international team found that dead cockroaches have more magnetic properties (特性) than live ones. That's because magnetic properties drop when the temperature gets higher.

So if you can stand cockroaches, they may be good magnetic sensors.

【1】According to the survey, which country's paper money is the dirtiest?

A.Roman B. Lebanon C. Russian D.Romanian

【2】What kind of cockroach may have more magnetic properties?

A.A dead one near the stove. B.A live one near the stove.

C.A dead one near the fridge. D.A live one on the ground.

【3】Which of the following statements is True according to the passage?

A.The Ig Nobel Prize is a kind of prestigious Nobel Prize.

B.If a person has cancer and heart disease, he shouldn't eat too many pizzas.

C.Because paper money is useless, this makes cashless payments more popular.

D.Because cockroaches have magnetic properties, people may apply this feature to sensors.

27、You’ve probably seen it before－two elderly people walking hand in hand down the street and looking very much like each other. They look so much alike that they could be brother and sister. Do you believe that people who live together for many years would look alike? It’s strange, but scientists say it’s true. 

How scientists proved it? In a study, scientists found young couples only showed similarity by chance. However, elder couples were very likely to look like each other. The similarity could be very subtle (微妙) and could be found in wrinkles (皱纹) or furrows, etc. Besides, some couples look far more alike than other couples. 

The scientists thought of several possible reasons: 

Diet. “We are what we eat.” As couples usually share the same diet, will they probably look alike? For example, if both partners eat a high fat diet, their faces will tend to look fat. However, the scientists ruled this out using another small study. 

Environment. Will elderly couples show similarity because they live together in the same area for a long time? The environmental factors such as sunshine and wind affect the skin in similar ways. The scientists ruled this possibility out as well. 

Empathy. This is the theory the scientists believe in. Couples grow to look similar because they are empathizing with each other. They copy each other’s facial expressions. For example, if one partner often smiles in a certain way, the other is likely to copy it. In this way, their faces share similar wrinkles and furrows.

【1】The old couples look ________ than the young couples.

A. much more alike B. more different C. less alike D. 1ess different

【2】Scientists think that the old couples look alike in their________.

A. ages B. education C. appearance D. abilities

【3】How many reasons did the scientist think of about it ?

A. One B. Two C. Four D. Three

【4】Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Your diet can affect your appearance.

B. You will look slim if you eat a high fat diet.

C. Old couples look similar because they are empathizing with each other.

D. Old couples usually share similar wrinkles and furrows.

【5】Which is the theory the scientists believe in?

A. Empathy. B. Diet. C. Environment. D. Wrinkles.

28、   Alison Lapper, a very unusual painter, paints pictures for a living. She doesn’t use her 【1】 (手)when she paints. She uses her mouth! Alison was born 【2】 (没有)any arms. Her physical problem caused her to spend the first 【3】 (十七)years of her life in a hospital. But this didn’t stop her from making her dreams in life come true. She realized that even though she was disabled, she could 【4】 (表达)herself as freely as normal people. This was what got her to start drawing paintings.

Although Alison lives 【5】 (十分)a different life from others, she never loses her heart. She 【6】 (相信)that she can succeed as others. With great efforts, her painting skills have reached a high 【7】 (水平)and her paintings do not look like they were drawn by 【8】(某人)who used her mouth.

I needed to _______ enough money for one trained dog. I sold home-made dog biscuits and after a summer of sales, then I had enough money to pay for an adoption(领养).
