【題目】 You sometimes feel so close to your friends that they are like family to you. Why? A study by San Diego, a professor, has found you and your friends have more genes (基因) in common than strangers do. Maybe this gives you the answer.
Researchers looked at the genes of 1,932 people and compared them in pairs of friends and strangers. They found that friends have 1 percent of genes that match.
“One percent may not sound like much to laypersons (外行),but to geneticists (遺傳學(xué)家) it is a huge number,” Professor Nicholas said. “In fact, this is the same amount of genes you share with your fourth cousins, those who have the same great-great-great grandparents as you.'
So is it a coincidence (巧合) that you become friends with people who share your genes? Not at all. “People who share certain genes also share skills and have similar likes and dislikes,” researchers said. In ancient times, it was important that people who were alike stayed together. For example, people who had a similar sensitivity to the cold were more likely to help each other. They would make a fire to, give themselves a better chance to live. Researchers also found that among all the genes studied, those influencing the sense of smell were the most similar in friends. This is probably because people who smell things in the same way are more easily drawn to similar environments.
Based on the findings, the team has developed an interesting test called the “friendship score”. It can calculate how big the chances are that two people will be friends by studying their genes.
So, here is a question for you: would you like to take this test to know who your friends are going to be?
【1】You sometimes feel close to your friends because_________.
A.they act like your familyB.you spend much time together
C.you influence each other a lotD.you have more genes in common
【2】What can we know according to Professor Nicholas's words?
A.Our friends are actually relatives of ours.
B.One percent sounds like much to laypersons.
C.We have one percent of genes that match our fourth cousins.
D.Our fourth cousins have the same great-great grandparents as us.
【3】What kind of genes are the most similar in friends?
A.The genes that make people have similarities in the look.
B.The genes that make people smell things in the same way.
C.The genes that make people have a similar sensitivity to the cold.
D.The genes that make people develop a similar taste in music.
【4】What does the underlined word “calculate” in the text mean?
A.work outB.depend onC.set upD.make sure

A.Our Friends, Our FamilyB.Good Friends, the Same Genes

【題目】 A novel coronavirus (新冠狀病毒), a cousin of the SARS virus, has infected (感染)more than 40, 000people since the outbreak (爆發(fā)) began in Huanan Seafood Market, Wuhan, China, in December. At first, we knew little about this virus. With more researches going on, we get to learn more about it.
Coronaviruses are a large group of viruses that are common among animals. In rare cases, they are what scientists call zoonotic (人畜共患。, meaning they can be transmitted(傳播) from animals to humans, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.It is believed that the novel coronavirus spreads from human contact with animals.Bats are widely believed to be carriers of the latest strain of the disease.
Chinese researchers said on Friday that the endangered pangolin (穿山甲) may be the intermediate(媒介) host between bats and humans.
The viruses can make people sick, usually with a mild(輕度) to moderate(中度) upper respiratory tract illness(上呼吸道疾病), similar to a common cold, including a runny nose, cough, sore throat, possibly a headache and maybe a fever, which can last for a couple of days. For those with a weakened immune(免疫的)system, the elderly and the very young, there's a chance the virus could cause deadly diseases.
What's horrible about this virus is that once a human is infected, he/she becomes a carrier of the virus and spreads it to more people by coughing, sneezing or even handshaking.The virus can also be transmitted by touching something an infected person has touched and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes. Doctors and nurses may also catch the disease when taking care of the patients, so they are required to wear strict protective clothes.
To fight against the disease, as individuals(個人,個體), we should strictly follow the requirements of the government to stay at home and help to prevent the spread of the disease. In terms of the ( 就……而言)government, a strong health care system can surely help decrease the risk of health attack and lessen the impact of the disease.
【1】Where did the outbreak begin?
______________________________________________________________________
【2】What animal does the novel coronavirus come from according to the researchers?
______________________________________________________________________
【3】What symptoms (癥狀) may people have when they are affected?
______________________________________________________________________
【4】Why are doctors and nurses required to wear strict protective clothes?
______________________________________________________________________
【5】What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

【題目】 Should we help strangers? When asked this question, some answered, "Sorry, I don't know." Others said, "It all depends on the situation." Still others replied, "No, I'm not willing to do so." How does it happen that so many people refused to help strangers? This is because nowadays there are a lot of problems in the society, such as cheating, robbing (搶劫), blackmailing (敲詐) and so on. As a result, many people are afraid to trust strangers any longer and stay away from them. I think this is why my parents always warn me never talk to strangers.
However, refusing to offer help to strangers will do harm (危害) to both our society and ourselves. Actually, not all the strangers are bad people, We should ask our own conscience (良心) and try to give them a hand when they are badly in need of help. Just as an old saying goes, "A near neighbor is better than a distant relative." In fact, helping each other is an ideal way to build up a good relationship with others, which is good for ourselves.
In a word, we should be warmhearted and try our best to identify (識別) the good and the bad. Only in this way can we help those who are really in need of help to build up a harmonious (和諧的)society.
【1】According to the passage,which is not the answer to the question "Should we help strangers"?
A."It all depends on the situation."B."Certainly. I'd love to."
C."No, I'm not willing to do so."D."Sorry, I don't know."
【2】Many people refuse to help strangers because there are lots of ________ in the society?
A.cheatingB.blackmailingC.robbingD.A, B and C
【3】Refusing to offer help to strangers will be bad for ________.
A.our society and ourselvesB.our friendsC.a neighborD.a distant relative

A.Study hard at schoolB.Trust strangers and help them
C.Don't speak to strangersD.Don't fight with your classmates
