On May 2, Gadgil became the recipient of the $100, 000 Lemelson-MIT Award for Global Innovation. Each year, the honor is given to an inventor who has improved the lives of people in developing countries. Gadgil’s inventions have helped more than 100 million people around the world. ‎ Gadgil is a professor and physicist at the University‎ of ‎California. When he’s not teaching, he works to find solutions to global problems such as energy efficiency and water safety. “I chose to focus on problems where my knowledge of science could help, ”he said. ‎ Gadgil’s global quest to help people began in the 1980s. It all started when he came up with a program to make energy-efficient light bulbs more affordable for people in developing countries. ‎ Then in the 1990s, Gadgil designed his first life-saving invention, UV Waterworks. The device uses ultraviolet light to kill deadly disease-carrying germs from drinking water. Gadgil was inspired to find an inexpensive solution to the clean ‎ water crisis after more than 10, 000 people in his home country of India died from an outbreak of Bengal cholera, in 1993. The infection is spread through contaminated food and drinking water. So far, the invention has provided safe drinking water to more than five million people in poor areas. ‎ Many refugees are given food aid. But they still have to cook the meals. In order to do so, refugee women leave the safety of the camps three to five times a week to gather firewood. Cooking over an open flame can be hazardous to one’s health and to the environment, too, because of the amount of smoke it causes. Gadgil worked with the refugee women on designing a clean, fuel-efficient stove. The invention also helps to save homes more than $‎300 a year. ‎ As a professor, Gadgil encourages his students to stay positive about finding solutions to hard problems. “Be optimistic when you try a hard problem, ”he says. “It’s when you solve a large problem that you can have a big impact on the world. ”‎ ‎31. Gadgil was given an award because　　　. ‎ A. he saved many lives in the world B. he found solutions to global problems C. his inventions helped people around the world D. his inventions helped people in developing countries ‎32. His invention UV Waterworks is meant to　　　. ‎ A. be energy-efficient B. produce more light C. kill germs in drinking water D. help people with cholera ‎33. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text? ‎ A. To seek help for the poor areas. ‎ B. To introduce an inventor to help the poor. ‎ C. To show the importance of inventions. ‎ D. To tell us how to help others. ‎ ‎34. Which of the following best describes Gadgil? ‎ A. Brave and determined. ‎ B. Responsible and caring. ‎ C. Considerate and strict. ‎ D. Friendly and devoted. ‎ B ‎　　A middle school student who jumped into the hot seat when his school bus driver passed out on the way to class this morning is being praised as a “quick thinker” for leading the bus, and 15 other students, to safety. Seventh grader Jeremy Wuitschick is being praised by the local police chief for his actions. ‎ Wuitschick hopped out of his seat and grasped the steering wheel(方向盘), pulling the bus over to the side of the road before pulling the keys from the ignition(点火开关). “I’ll give the kid credit for fast thinking. He did the right thing and we’re going to do something for him. The kid definitely deserves credit, ”Milton Police Chief Bill Rhodes told ABC News. ‎ Police officers were informed of a school bus driving irregularly through town around ‎8 a. m. today, but by the time an officer arrived at the scene, Wuitschick had it under control. He had pulled the bus over in front of Discovery Primary School, which is near to the school that the students were heading to, Surprise‎ Lake ‎Middle School. “I knew something was wrong, ”Wuitschick told ABC. “It was pretty scary. I was just acting on instinct(本能). It was all happening really quickly. ”‎ Jeff Short, assistant dean for the Fife school district, said the students had been trained in emergency situations on the school bus, including how to shut down the bus in an emergency. A staff member at the school, John McCrossin, happened to be driving behind the bus when the driver lost perception, and rushed onto the bus to administer CPR(心肺复苏)once Wuitschick had pulled over to the side of the road, Rhodes said. ‎ The kids told McCrossin they had already called 911. The bus driver, whose name has not been released, was taken to the hospital. Emergency service staff told school ‎ administrators he was suffering from a problem related to the heart. Short said his condition was severe. Rhodes said that there were no traffic accidents or other injuries. ‎ ‎35. What saved the students on the bus? ‎ A. The driver’s strong will. ‎ B.

Consciousness. ‎ C Here are some things I do to develop my relationships with my kids, in spite of a busy schedule. ‎ Take one child along on a short trip Last year I had a speaking engagement in Kamloops, several hours away from my home, and I took my daughter Hannah with me. The time we spent together in the car that day was invaluable, and now she always asks me, “Dad, when are we going to go on a trip together again? ”A one-or two-day trip like this is a great chance for you to connect with one of your kids. ‎ Eat one meal together each day In our home breakfast is chaos, and by lunchtime we are scattered to the four winds. But as much as possible we try to have dinner as a family. This is our time to reconnect and recharge after a busy day. It’s our chance to celebrate victories, and to help each other through the tough things. ‎ Be available Our children need to know that they are more important to us than anything else. My kids have permission to call me on my cell phone anytime they need to. My oldest son calls regularly just to say, “Hey Dad! I love you! ”‎ Put their activities into your schedule My Palm Pilot is filled with my kids, practices and games. I can’t always make it to all of them, but as much as possible I am there to cheer them on. I don’t want to miss their big moments! ‎ ‎39. Hannah asks the author to take her to go on a trip again because　　　　. ‎ A. she wants to listen to the author’s speech again B. she is interested in the trip with the author C. she hopes to build a good relationship with the author D. she thinks she can help the author with his speech ‎40.

I try to get them to quit. ”‎ ‎　　So why does Connie walk into convenience stores and try to buy cigarettes? She is testing to see if stores will sell cigarettes to a minor—a kid who is younger than 18. “You have to be 18 to purchase cigarettes, and I’m 16, so if they sell to me, they’re breaking the law, ”Connie says. ‎ ‎　　Connie isn’t a vigilante(治安会会员). She works with local police in her town of Castro Valley, California. Officers drive her to stores, and she goes in alone to try to buy cigarettes. If the person behind the counter sells her a pack, an officer comes in and writes the business a ticket for breaking the law. ‎ ‎　　Most stores obey the law and don’t sell her cigarettes. The law requires that customers show ID if store employees ask them to. “When they ask your age, you can’t lie, ”Connie says. “Most stores don’t sell to me. In a year, we’ve visited almost 150 stores and had only 15 sales. ”‎ ‎　　Working undercover can be scary, even with police nearby. Connie said one cashier refused to sell her cigarettes and then got angry when he found out her age. He threatened to call the authorities. “To calm him down, the police went in to explain that I was undercover, ”she says. ‎ ‎　　Most teens wouldn’t think of going undercover for the police. What’s Connie’s motivation? For starters, she can’t stand smoking. But she also believes it’s important for young people like her to try to make a real impact in their communities. In her view, teens can do more than get good grades in school, do chores at home, and excel in extracurricular activities. ‎ ‎　　Every time she stops the sale of cigarettes to minors, she’s helping to uphold the law. “A single teenager can make a big difference, ”Connie says. “For the ‎ most part, when stores get caught, they learn their lesson and don’t do it again. ”‎ ‎43. Connie goes to convenience stores to　　　. ‎ A. discover whether stores can sell cigarettes to kids B. see which stores can sell cigarettes to her friends C. look for her friends D. arrest the smokers ‎44. What would happen if an owner sold cigarettes to kids? ‎ A. The owner would be arrested. ‎ B. The owner would be fined. ‎ C. The kids would be punished. ‎ D. The kids would be removed from school. ‎ ‎45. One reason why Connie works undercover is that　　　. ‎ A. Connie wants more smokers to quit smoking B. Connie wants to get good grades in school C. Connie hopes to have an impression in the area D. Connie hopes to be excellent in extracurricular activities ‎46. Which of the following might be the main idea of the passage? ‎ A. Smoking can be forbidden with the help of a girl. ‎ B. You can stop a store from selling cigarettes to kids. ‎ C. Connie Lau—a brave girl who goes undercover for the policeman. ‎ D. Connie Lau goes undercover to stop stores from selling cigarettes to kids. ‎ E Do you always forget where you placed your keys or your purse? What was the name of the movie you saw last week? The major cause of your forgetfulness may be linked to what you store in your body, not in your short-term memory bank. ‎ Tests continue to show that people with enough Vitamin B-2 do well in memory exams. The “B” could stand for “brain”, if you’re one of many with limited instant recall. And the number one source of that vitamin is sunflower seeds. ‎ Even when you’re sleeping or relaxing, your brain is still at work. Although ‎ it makes up just two percent of your total body weight, it uses up to 30% of the calories you take in each day. For it to work properly, it must be fed. Even if you’re not a breakfast eater, that meal is the best way to prepare your brain for the day. A quick and easy English muffin with peanut and butter in it, a glass of milk, and an orange, might be what your brain may be asking you the first thing in the morning when you feel your head is in a fog. Having sunflower seeds and fruit between meals adds more muscle to that hungry, demanding organ. Vitamin B-1 also helps the memory, and that is found in eggs, meat and nuts. In Chinese culture, walnuts(核桃)are known as the fruit for a long life because it is believed that they feed both the kidneys and the brain. And according to Chinese culture, if you keep those two important organs in good working order, you’ll live longer. ‎ However forgetful you are, just keep in mind the letter “B”, which will help you to “bear in mind almost everything” even on those days when life’s challenges are sending you in a billion directions. ‎ ‎47. The underlined word “muffin” in the third paragraph probably means　　　　. ‎ A. menu　　 B. dinner　　 C. calorie　　 D. cookie ‎48. In the passage, Chinese culture is mentioned to　　　　. ‎ A. support the idea of long life B. show the importance of Vitamin B-1‎ C. warn the readers of two organs D. remind us of walnuts and sunflower seeds ‎49. What can we conclude from the passage? ‎ A. What we eat seems more important than what we learn in terms of memory. ‎ B. Two percent of our brain is still active when we are sleeping or relaxing. ‎ C. It doesn’t make much difference to our brain whether we have breakfast or not. ‎ D. Life’s challenges have no effect on our memory, if dealt with in a proper way. ‎ ‎50. The best title for the passage could be　　　　. ‎ A. Human of Memory Loss B. Vitamin B-2 and Memory C. Forgetful? But not Brain D. Chinese Culture of Long Life 第二节(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)‎ ‎—Hello, Jack.

On ‎ Christmas Eve, 2002, Anthony had a heart transplant(移植)from a 21-year-old donor(捐赠者). Two days before Valentine’s Day in 2012, Alfred received a 19-year-old heart, marking the first time on record that twin adults each received heart transplants. ‎ ‎“I’m 15 minutes older than him. But now I’m younger because of my heart and I’m not going to respect him, ”Alfred said with a smile, pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters, who laughed frequently at their jokes. ‎ ‎　　While the twins knew that genetics(遗传学)might have played a role in their condition, they recognized that their bad eating habits might have also contributed to their heart problems. “We’d put half a pound of butter on a steak. I overdid it on all the food that tasted good, so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly. ”‎ The discussion moved to Anthony’s recovery. In the five years since his heart transplant, he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode a bicycle for five miles, swam each day, and walked a couple of miles. He was still on medication(药物治疗)but not nearly as much as Alfred, who was just in the early stage of his recovery. ‎ Alfred said his goal, of course, was to feel even better than his brother. “But”, he added, “I love my brother very much. We’re very close and I’m sure we’ll do just fine. ”‎ ‎56. What is this passage about? (within 10 words)‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________‎ ‎57.

I have another message for everyone here: Express your love in return. Either a small talk with mum or a cup of tea for her will shine her through. ‎ Thank you for listening. ‎
