It was valued as a potential breakthrough at the time. But a new discovery came as a team of British scientists examined an

12、enzyme(酶) produced by the Japanese bacteria to find out more about its structure. While operating the structure to better understand how it worked, they accidentally created the changed enzyme thats even more efficient at breaking down plastic bottles.The researchers are now working to further impro

13、ve the enzyme so it can be used on an industrial scale. Its possible that within the next few years there could be an industrially possible process for turning PET into other substances so it can be recycled.The ability to scale up the process will be important. Plastic pollution is fast becoming on

14、e of the biggest environmental issues of our time. More than 1 million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute. Most of these bottles are made from PET，which can take up to00 years to biodegrade(生物降解), and many are left in the oceans. Over half of global PET waste is not collected f

15、or recycling and only 7 percent of bottles are recycled into new bottles.Some scientists say the breakthrough, though promising, is nowhere near enough to solve our pollution crisis. These enzymes are not abundantly present in nature. So you would need to produce the enzyme first, then add it to the

16、 PET plastic to degrade it.”This is likely to be a slow process. If you have gone through the trouble of collecting the PET waste, then there are clearly far better ways to recycle it or burn it for energy,” said Wim, head of the Industrial Biotechnology Center. He suggested the use of commercially

17、available biodegradable bioplastics would still be a better bet.1、What unexpected discovery did the British scientists make?AAn effective way to deal with plastic waste.BA potential solution in collecting PET waste.CThe way to understand the structure of enzyme better.DThe real value of the discover

18、y by Japanese scientists.2、What does the underlined phrase “the process” in Paragraph 3 actually refer to?AThe process to find the enzyme.BThe process to make more plastics.CThe process to reduce the PET waste.DThe process to produce kind of new PET.3、What is the problem about recycling the PET wast

19、e?ALarge quantities of plastic bottles are used.BOcean plastic waste is harder to biodegradeCMost of the PET waste is left without treatment.DMost of the plastic products are made from PET.4、What can be concluded from the last paragraph?AThe enzyme does not exist in nature.BThe enzyme has helped to

20、solve the plastic problems.CBurning plastic waste for energy is now the best way to rid it.DWe have a long way to go to use the enzyme to recycle PET waste.22（8分）As a boy, Charles Robert Darwin(達爾文）collected anything that caught his interest: insects, coins and interesting stones. He was not very cl

21、ever, but Darwin was good at doing the things that interested him.His father was a doctor, so Darwin was sent to Edinburgh to study medicine, and was planned to follow a medical career. But Charles found the lectures boring. Then his father sent him to Cambridge University to study to be a priest. W

22、hile at Cambridge, Darwins interest in zoology and geography grew. Later he got a letter from Robert FitzRoy who was planning to make a voyage around the world on a ship, the Beagle. He wanted a naturalist to join the ship, and Darwin was recommended（推薦) That voyage was the start of Darwins great li

23、fe.As the Beagle sailed around the world, Darwin began to wonder how life had developed on earth. He began to observe everything. After he was home, he set to work, getting his collection in order. His first great work The Zoology of the Beagle was well received, but he was slow to make public his i

24、deas on the origin of life.Later Darwin and Wallace, another naturalist who had the same opinions as Darwin, produced a paper together. Darwins great book “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection（物種起源）appeared It attracted a storm. People thought that Darwin was saying they were desce

25、nded from monkeys. What a shameful idea! Although most scientists agreed that Darwin was right, the Church was still so strong that Darwin never received any honors for his work.Afterwards, he published another great work, The Descent of Man. His health grew worse, but he still worked. When I have t

29、 laugh, were the only ticklish animals.It turns out that Aristotle was wrong. In their study published on Thursday, Ishiyama and his adviser Michael Brecht found that rats squeaked and jumped with pleasure when tickled on their backs and bellies. These signs of joy changed according to their moods.

30、And for the first time, they discovered a special group of nerve cells. These nerve cells made this feeling so powerful that it causes an individual being tickled to lose control.To make sure that he had indeed found a place in the brain where tickling was processed, Ishiyama then stimulated(刺激) tha

31、t area with electrical currents. The rats began to jump like rabbits and sing like birds.“Its truly ground-breaking,” said Jeffrey Burgdorf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who reviewed the paper. “It takes the study of emotion to a new level.”Burgdorf has played a central role in our un

32、derstanding of animal tickling. He was part of a team that first noticed, in the late 1990s, that rats made special noises when they were experiencing social pleasure. Others had already noted that rats repeatedly made short and high sounds during meals. But the lab where Burgdorf worked noticed tha

33、t they emitted similar sounds while playing. And so one day, the senior scientist in the lab said, “Lets go and tickle some rats.” They quickly found that those cries of pleasure doubled.“The authors have been very adventurous,” said Daniel OConnor, a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins University who s

34、tudies touch. To him, that finding was very surprising.“Why does the world literally feel different when you are stressed out?” he said. “This is the first step towards answering that question. It gives us a way to approach it with experimental rigor(嚴謹).”1、What contributed to humans being ticklish

35、according to Aristotle?ATheir special skin. BTheir social pleasure.CTheir nervous system. DTheir willingness to touch.2、Why did the researchers make use of electrical currents?ATo discover the special group of nerve cells.BTo experiment on different animals.CTo follow the process of tickling.DTo pro

In the

38、UK, we only get eight bank holidays in one year, and at least five of those occur around Christmas time and Easter time! A bank holiday is a British English term. This is an official day that is decided by the government, when banks, shops and offices close for the day even though its a weekdayusual

39、ly a Monday, and a lot of people have a day off work.Bank holidays are different in Colombia -firstly, they are called “festivos”. There are twenty festivos for the whole country in one year! In Britain, people get more holiday allowances(津貼)than Colombians but fewer bank holidays. There can be even

40、 more festivos in Colombia, depending on which region of Colombia you live in. This is because different regions have their own holidays. For example, some regions have a patron saint(守護神), so they have an extra festivo to celebrate that saint.However, there are some days that are national holidays

41、for historical reasons. There is an Independence Day celebration on July 20 every year. This is just like Bastille Day in France on July 14, or Independence Day in the United States on July4. Other important festivos in Colombia are: Labour Day, on May 1, and Columbus Day on October 12. Columbus Day

42、 is a historical bank holiday that almost every county on the continent of America celebrates. This includes Colombia, Chile, Peru, Argentina, Mexico and the United States. It is memorialization of the day when the Italian sailor, Christopher Columbus, first reached land on the continent in the year

43、 14. Many people criticize this day and say it is not something to celebrate because of the way Columbus and his team treated the people that were already living there.1、What is a “bank holiday” according to the text?AAn official nationwide vacation.BA holiday only for the bank staff.CA British trad

44、itional religion festival.DA celebration for Christmas and Easter.2、What can we learn from Paragraph2?AColombia and Britain have the same number of festivos.BAll Colombians have the same number of festivos.CColombians have fewer holiday allowances than British people.DPeople in most regions celebrat

45、e a patron saint.3、Why do many Americans refuse to celebrate Columbus Day?ABecause Columbus wasnt an American at all.BBecause Columbus once treated the locals badly.CBecause it wasnt Columbus who found America first.DBecause Columbus didnt live in the continent of America.4、What is the text mainly a

46、bout?AA British English term.BBank holidays in Colombia.CImportant festivos in America.DDifferent bank holidays in the world.25（10分）Animal lovers have long suspected that playing with pups was good for the soul, and now science has confirmed it for students in particular.The results of a new study d

47、one by researchers at the University of British Columbia concluded that the college students who spent time at drop-in dog therapy sessions experienced an increase in feelings of wellness and a reduction in overall stress. The study, as reported by Science Daily, indicates that playing with pups is

48、not only popular with the students, its also beneficial to their health. This finding was seen across gender（性別）.The study, which published on March 12 in the journal Stress and Health, involved 246 students who were surveyed before and after they dropped by dog therapy sessions. The young participa

49、nts were given free access to pet, hug with and talk to seven to 12 therapy dogs. Additionally, they filled out questionnaires right before and right after hanging with the dogs, as well as 10 hours later.According to researchers, these young adults reported a notable increase in happiness, a signif

50、icant reduction in stress and a flood of energy right after their sessions with the pups. Although the reported feelings of happiness and satisfaction werent long-lasting, researchers say other effects have clear, positive advantages.“These sessions clearly provide benefits for students in the short

51、-term, so we think universities should try to schedule them during particularly stressful times, such as around exam periods,” Assistant Professor of Psychology at UBC and the studys senior author, Frances Chen told Science Daily. “Even having therapy dogs around while students are working on their

52、out-of-class assignments could be helpful.”1、（小題1）What does the new study say about the pups?AThey are only good for college students.BThey are only beneficial to the students physical health.CThey can increase happiness and satisfaction.DThey can create positive feelings that last very long.2、（小題2）

53、What does the author of study advise universities to do?AAllow their students to have therapy dogs to avoid acute stress.BAllow their students to have therapy dogs around during each exam.CAllow their students to have therapy dogs around during their class.DAllow their students to have therapy dogs

54、to achieve good grades.3、（小題3）What can we infer from Paragraph 2?ACollege students like to play with pups.BDog therapy sessions are popular among college students.CPeople especially college students are under great pressure.DPlaying with pups benefits males and females mentally.4、（小題4）What may be th
