Isn't it amazing how one person,sharing one idea,at the right time and place can change the course of your life's history?This is certainly what happened in my life. When I was 14,I was a high school dropout (輟學(xué)學(xué)生) with learning disabilities.

One day I met an old man,a bum (流浪漢).He asked me if I was running away from home,because I looked so ____.Then he told me he had something grand to show me and ____ with me. We walked to the downtown library.

The bum first brought a couple of old ____ and then started with a few statements that were very special and that changed my life. He said,“There are two things I want to ____ you. Number one is to never ____ a book by its cover,for a cover can fool you”.

He followed with,“I'll bet (打賭) you think I'm a bum,don't you?”

“Yes,I ____ so,sir.”

“Well,young man,I've got a little ____ for you. I am one of the ____ men in the world. I have probably everything any man could ever want. But a year ago,my wife ____,and since then I have been deeply reflecting on(思考)life. I realized there were certain things I had not yet experienced in life,one of ____ was what it would be like to live like a bum on the streets. For the past year,I have been going from city to city doing just that. So,you see,don't ever judge a book by its cover,for a cover can fool you.

“Number two is to learn how to read. For there is only one thing that people can't ____ away from you,your wisdom.” He ____ my right hand and put it upon the books he'd ____ from the shelves,the writings of Plato and Aristotle's everlasting(永恒)____ from ancient times. His ____ request was for me to never forget what he taught me.

1.A. tired“疲倦的;”;B.young“年輕的”;C.familiar“熟悉的”;D.old“老的”,他之所以問(wèn)“我”是否從家里跑出來(lái),最可能的原因是“我看起來(lái)年齡小”,且上文已經(jīng)提到“我”是一個(gè)學(xué)生,因此答案選B.

2.A. share“分享”;B.remain“剩下;逗留”;C.a(chǎn)gree“同意”;D.talk“談話”,既然是“he had something grand to show me”,那么應(yīng)該是與我“分享”這件好東西,所以答案選A. share sth. with sb. ”與某人分享某物”。

3.A. drinks“飲料;酒”;B.stories“故事”;C.novels“小說(shuō)”;D.books“書(shū)”,

因?yàn)槭窃趫D書(shū)館,因此他應(yīng)該是拿了兩本書(shū),這也與下文“a book by its cover”相照應(yīng),所以答案選D。

When introducing American universities, some of the first institutions to mention are the Ivy League schools. Originally, the Ivy League was an athletic conference made up of 8 private institutes of higher learning in northeastern United States. However, as time went on, these schools also became known for their excellence in academics besides athletics. Included in the Ivy League schools are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, Yale University, and Harvard University. These 8 schools have been recognized as some of the best colleges and universities in the United States.

Harvard University is a private institution located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The university includes a number of graduate and professional schools, as well as a college for undergraduates. In 2012, Harvard ranked number one in US News’ ranking of national universities again. Founded in 1636, Harvard is the oldest institute of higher education in the United States. It can be said that first there was Harvard, then the United States of America. Also, Harvard’s library contains the oldest collection of books in the United States as well as the largest private collection in the world. Harvard has also been described by Forbes Magazine as one of the “billionaire universities” as of their recent list of 469 billionaires, 50 received a degree from Harvard.

Harvard College (the institute for undergraduate students) is one of the most famous schools in the United States. It offers over 40 undergraduate fields of study, including astrophysics, mathematics, neurobiology(神經(jīng)生物學(xué)), etc. And the financial aid program there is amazing. Even though the tuition is about 37,576, and there are other expenses throughout the year, about 70% of undergraduate students received financial aid. Out of those students, over 90% of them had their full need met. And the policies for international students are the same for U.S. citizens.

Harvard College is very selective, as it only admits about 6% of their applicants. For admission into Harvard College, it is required that students take the SAT or the ACT, as well as 2 SAT Subject Tests. Harvard will also look at other factors during admission such as your application essay, high school transcript, work experience, GPA (Grade Point Average), your interview, recommendations, and most importantly, your character and personal qualities.

NASA is developing the capabilities needed to send humans to an asteroid(小行星)by 2025 and then Mars in the 2030s—goals outlined in NASA’s official documents 2014.

Mars is a rich destination tor scientific discovery and robotic and human exploration as we expand our presence into the solar system.Future exploration could uncover evidence of life,answering one of the fundamental mysteries:Does life exist beyond Earth?

While robotic explorers have studied Mars for more than 40 years,NASA’s path for the human exploration of Mars begins in low-Earth orbit aboard the International Space Station.Astronauts on the orbiting laboratory are helping us prove many of the technologies and communications systems needed for human missions(任務(wù))to deep space,including Mars.The space station also advances our understanding of how the body changes in space and how to protect astronaut health.

Our next step is deep space,where NASA will send a robotic mission to catch and redirect an asteroid to orbit the moon.Astronauts aboard the Orion spacecraft will explore the asteroid in the 2020s,returning to Earth with samples.This experience in human spaceflight beyond low-Earth orbit will help NASA test new systems,which we’ll need to send cargo(貨物)as part of human missions to Mars.Beginning in FY 2018,NASA’s powerfull Space Launch System(SLS)rocket will enable these "proving ground" missions to test new technologies.Human missions to Mars will rely on Orion and an evolved version of SLS that will be the most powerful launch vehicle ever flown。

A lot of robotic spacecraft and rovers(探測(cè)器)already are on and around Mars,greatly increasing our knowledge about the Red Planet and paving the way of future human explorers.The Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover measured radiation on the way to Mars and is sending back radiation data from the surface.This data will help us plan how to protect the astronauts who will explore Mars.Future missions like the Mars 2020 rover,seeking signs of past life,also will demonstrate new technologies that could help astronauts survive on Mars.

Engineers and scientists around the country are working hard to develop the technologies astronauts will use to one day live and work on Mars,and safely return home from the next giant leap for humanity.NASA also is a leader in a Global Exploration Roadmap,working with international partners and the U.S.commercial space industry with human missions to the surface of Mars as the driving goal.

1.It can be learnt from the first three paragraphs that .

A.Mars is the perfect place for scientific discovery and human settlement

B.a(chǎn)stronauts’physical changes in the space station should be recorded

C.NASA intends to send robotic explorers and humans to Mars in 2025

D.a(chǎn)stronauts in the space station are testing technologies for better life on the Earth

2.The Orion Spacecraft_________.

A.will send cargo to Mars

B.was built to explore low-earth orbit

C.needs SLS rocket to finish its mission

D.will bring back samples of an asteroid

3.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?

A.the U.S.commercial space industry is a leader in exploration to Mars.

B.Many protective measures are needed when exploring Mars.

C.NASA is an agency that plans to explore Mars in secret.

D.Curiosity rover is the first rover to be sent to Mars.

4.Which can be the best title of this passage?

A.Future life on Mars

B.Research for the Solar System

C.NASA’s Journey to Mars

D.Exploration of life Beyond Earth

We discuss the issue of when to help a patient die. Doctors of our generation are not newcomers to this question. Going back to my internship(實(shí)習(xí))days, I can remember many patients in pain, sometimes in coma(昏迷), with late, hopeless cancer. For many of them, we wrote an order for heavy medication—morphine(嗎啡)by the clock. This was not talked about openly and little was written about it. It was essential, not controversial.

The best way to bring the problem into focus is to describe two patients whom I cared for. The first, formerly a nurse, had an automobile accident. A few days later her lungs seemed to fill up; her heart developed dangerous rhythm disturbances. So there she was: in coma, on a breathing machine, her heartbeat maintained with an electrical device. One day after rounds, my secretary said the husband and son of the patient wanted to see me. They told me their wife and mother was obviously going to die; she was a nurse and had told her family that she never wanted this kind of terrible death, being maintained by machines. I told them that while I respected their view, there was nothing deadly about her situation. The kidney(腎) failure she had was just the kind for which the artificial kidney was most effective. While possibly a bit reassured, they were disappointed. Here was the head surgeon seemingly determined to keep everybody alive, no matter what.

Within a few days the patient's pacemaker(起搏器) could be removed and she awoke from her coma. About six months later, the door of my office opened and in walked a gloriously fit woman. After some cheery words of appreciation, the father and son asked to speak to me alone. As soon as the door closed, both men became quite tearful. All that came out was, “We want you to know how wrong we were.”

The second patient was an 85-year-old lady whose hair caught fire while she was smoking. She arrived with a deep burn; I knew it would surely be deadly. As a remarkable coincidence there was a meeting for discussion going on at the time in medical ethics(道德). The speaker asked me if I had any sort of ethical problem I could bring up for discussion. I described the case and asked the students their opinion. After the discussion, I made a remark that was, when looking back, a serious mistake. I said, "I'll take the word back to the nurses about her and we will talk about it some more before we decide." The instructor and the students were shocked: "You mean this is a real patient?" The teacher of ethics was not accustomed to being challenged by actuality. In any event, I went back and met with the nurses. A day or two later, when she was making no progress and was suffering terribly, we began to back off treatment. Soon she died quietly and not in pain. As a reasonable physician, you had better move ahead and do what you would want done for you. And don't discuss it with the world first. There is a lesson here for everybody. Assisting people to leave this life requires strong judgment and long experience to avoid its misuse.

1.The first patient’s husband and son wanted the doctor_____.

A. to save her life

B. to end her life

C. use an artificial kidney

D. to maintain her life with machines

2.In the early days when a patient had got a deadly, hopeless illness, _______.

A. doctors would inject more morphine into the patient to end his life

B. doctors would turn him away and ask him to go back home and wait for death

C. doctors would write a new order for their medical treatment to ease their pain

D. doctors would discuss their treatment plan with the patient and write down the solution

3.At the meeting, the author discussed with the students_____.

A. the importance of mercy killing

B. the relationship between mercy killing and ethics

C. the case about an old lady

D. the process to practice mercy killing

4.The author suggested that doctors_____ before they assist a patient in killing himself.

A. do what they are wanted to do

B. discuss with the others about the decision first

C. be required to do so first by the patient

D. make sure there is no other choice left

5.Through the two patients mentioned in the text, the author thinks that on the issue of helping a patient die, doctors need to be _________.

A. cruel and cautious

B. experienced and thoughtful
