I am a sophomore (大二學生) at Princeton University, where I am majoring in chemical engineering. I chose to study at UCD in the spring of 2015 primarily because I have always been interested in Ireland and Irish culture, but also to take advantage of UCD’s courses in pharmacology (藥理學), a field not offered at my home school. I also chose UCD because of its Introduction to Scientific Research module, which matches visiting students with professors for a term-long research project, and because of the Science office’s friendliness and helpfulness. I am convinced that I made the best possible decision!

While at UCD I lived on campus, which allowed me to throw myself into everything the university has to offer. I was given the opportunity to work with Geraldine Butler’s lab. I loved it so much that I ended up heading to the lab almost every weekday, whenever I wasn’t attending my always-interesting classes in pharmacology. After lab, I enjoyed a variety of after-school activities—that was certainly a new experience for me.

Living in Dublin provided a great opportunity for seeing the rest of Ireland and Europe. I spent my weekends and spring break traveling to every corner of the island, amazed at all of the history and natural beauty. I was also able to visit the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Sweden. After every trip, it was nice to return to friendly Dublin and head out with my roommates to one of our favorite pubs.

I would highly recommend studying abroad at UCD. I learned so much from my courses and my research project and had a wonderful time exploring Ireland. I can’t wait to come back!

1. Where is the author when he is writing the passage?

A. At Princeton University. B. At UCD.

B. There was a chance for him to change his major.

C. It offered visiting students a guided research project.

D. The staff in the Science office were friendly and helpful.

3. What does the author feel at the moment?

A. Excited. B. Upset.

C. Worried. D. Tired.

4.What probably can be the best title of the passage?

A. A Scientific Project. B. Colorful School Life.

Reducing the amount of sleep affects students’ performance at school. An American study asked schoolteachers to look at the effects of sleep restriction（限制） on children between six and twelve years of age. The teachers found that children who stayed up late had trouble thinking clearly and had more learning problems.

1. Doctor Fallone now works at the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology in Springfield, Missouri. He presented the results last month at a science reporter conference in Washington, D. C. The Publication Sleep also reported the findings.

The teachers were asked to complete weekly performance reports on seventy-four schoolchildren. The study lasted three weeks. During that period, Doctor Fallone and his team controlled the amount of sleep the children received.

2. During another week, every child was kept awake later than normal. Each night, the youngest boys and girls had less than eight hours of sleep. The older ones were limited to six and a half hours. During the final week of the study, each child received no less than ten hours of sleep a night.

The teachers were not told about how much sleep the students received. The study found that students who received eight hours or less had the most difficulty remembering old information. 33.

The study did not find that sleep restriction caused hyperactivity(極度活躍) in the children. 4.

Doctor Fallone said that the results provided experts and parents with a clear message: 5.

A. The sleeping time that the students have can be changed easily.

B. They also had trouble learning new information, completing difficult work and following directions.

C. During one week, the children went to bed and awoke at their usual time.

D. The teacher should restrict the amount of sleep of the students.

E. Gahan Fallone did the study at the Brown Medical School and Bradley Hospital in the state of Rhode Island.

F. The teachers reported that students were, in fact, a little less active at school when they got less sleep.

G. When a child has learning problems, the issue of sleep must be considered among the possible causes.

Communities in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Malaysia and East Africa have been by the huge waves. Whole towns were simply swept aside by the power of the water. Cars, trains and buildings could not , let alone the people who stood .

The earthquake 9.0 on the Richter scale(里氏震級) and occurred the coast of Indonesia. It was as the fifth strongest since 1900. Scientists said the quake was as as a million of the atomic bombs that were onto Japan during World War Ⅱ. It may be the worst natural disaster in recent history it is affecting so many heavily populated coastal areas.

Because such waves happen in the Indian Ocean, there is no system in place to coastal communities they are about to be hit.

Tsunami is Japanese for “harbor wave”. They are usually caused by a sudden or fall of part of the Earth’s crust(地殼) under the ocean. Tsunamis often happen in oceans and they are most in the Pacific.

Tsunamis can be very long—as much as 100 kilometers—and be as far as one hour apart. They are able to entire oceans without losing much energy. One of the most striking about tsunamis is that an earthquake on one side of the Pacific Ocean can cause giant waves and destruction on the other side. When the ocean is deep, tsunamis can travel unnoticed speeds of up to 800 kilometers per hour.

The wave may only be a few meters high in the ocean. when it is near the shore and reaches shallow (淺) water, the wave very quickly in height. Witnesses(目擊者) in some areas of Indonesia reported seeing up to 10-metre high waves crash into the shore.

Tsunamis travel in all directions from the center of an earthquake and attack coastlines. They can easily suck people out to sea, cause flooding and destroy property.

When NASA astronaut Scott Kelly completes his yearlong mission on the International Space Station next year, he’ll come back just a little bit younger than his twin, Mark, than he was before. This is because time travels more slowly in space, a phenomenon first described by Albert Einstein’s 1915 theory of general relativity.

This December, universities and academies around the world are celebrating the 100th anniversary of the theory’s publication.

Even 60 years after his death, Einstein is still the most important scientist of the modern era. Looking back as far as 2,400 years ago, only Newton, Galileo and Aristotle were his equals.

Born in the era of horse-drawn carriages, his ideas started a technological revolution that brought about more change in one century than in the 2,000 years before.

In 1905, Einstein published four important scientific papers. These completely changed people’s ideas about space, time, light and matter. In one of these papers Einstein. introduced his theory of special relativity. Two groundbreaking parts of the theory were about the relationship between mass and energy and the speed of light. Einstein was able to show that mass and energy were connected through the formula E＝MC2. The theory also says that no object can travel faster than the speed of light.

About 10 years later came his theory of general relativity, the theory that modern physics is really based on. In Einstein’s mathematics, space has three dimensions, and the fourth dimension is time. Space and time are part of one continuum, called space-time. The presence of mass changes space-time, which explains where gravity comes from.

Computers, satellites, telecommunication, lasers, television and nuclear power, many of the biggest developments in the modern world, can be linked to Einstein’s work.

“We are a different people than we were a century ago,” said astrophysicist Michael Shara of the American Museum of Natural. History, “completely different, because of Einstein.”

However, there’s more to him beyond the image of a science mastermind. Einstein, as a person, has also become a grandfatherly icon in our culture.

He liked playing Mozart on his Violin and keeping fit by hiking and walking. Power was not his goal. In 1952, the young nation of Israel asked Einstein to be its president, but he refused.

And, yes, he was eccentric. With hair like that, how could he not be?

1.The first paragraph was written to .

A. get readers to wonder about the effects of space travel on astronauts’ health

B. interest readers in the relationship between time and space

C. describe what gave Einstein the inspiration for his theories

D. lead in to the topic of the theory of general relativity

2.From the article, it can be concluded that .

A. the theory of general relativity is mainly about space and time

B. the theory of general relativity proves that the speed of light is the fastest of all speeds

C. the theory of general relativity is about math and has nothing to do with physics

D. the most important parts of the theory of special relativity are about space and energy

3.By using Michael Shara’s words, the author intends to .

A. give high praise to Einstein’s important publications

B. stress the great contribution that Einstein made to the modern world

C. suggest that more research needs to be done into Einstein and his work

D. say that there was more to Einstein than just being a science genius

“Can I see my baby？” the happy new mother asked. When the bundle was in her arms and she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped. The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the tall hospital window. The baby had been born without ears.

Time proved that the baby’ s hearing was perfect. It was only his appearance that was imperfect. When he rushed home from school one day and threw himself into his mother’s arms, she sighed, knowing that his life was to be misfortunate. He cried out the tragedy, “A boy, a big boy... called me a freak (怪人)．”

He grew up, handsome. A favourite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that. He developed a gift, a talent for literature and music. “But you might communicate with other young people，” his mother blamed him, but felt a kindness in her heart.

Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You’ re going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need. But it’ s a secret.” The operation was a brilliant success, and a new person appeared.

Later he married and entered the diplomatic service. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave me the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.” “I do not believe you could，” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know... not yet.”

The years kept their secret, but the day did come. He stood with his father over his mother’ s casket（棺材）. Slowly, tenderly, the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to reveal the mother had no outer ears.

“Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut，” his father whispered gently, “and nobody ever thought Mother less beautiful, did they？”

1.Why did Mother gasp when she saw her newborn baby?

A. Because her son had a tiny face.

B. Because she saw her son crying.

C. Because her son was born imperfect.

D. Because her son was in her arms.

2.Which word can describe Mother’ s feeling when the son threw himself into her arms?

A. Nervous. B. Sympathetic.

C. Proud. D. Angry.

3.Who gave the son the ears?

A. A doctor B. His father.

C. His mother. D. A stranger.

4.The underlined word “reveal” in the last but one paragraph means “________”．

A. see B. show C. find D. search

5.The best title for the passage would be ________.

A. Mother’s hair

B. An unforgettable memory

C. Who gave me the ears?

D. Who is my best respectable person?
