10.In 2012,the Tower of London welcomed two new inhabitants:a pair of ravens(烏鴉) named Jubilee and Grip.Their arrival celebrated the bicentenary(二百周年) of Charles Dickens's birth.This Grip was the third of the Tower ravens to be named after the novelist's own pet bird.One of his predecessors(前輩) was resident during World War Two; he and his mate Mabel were the only ravens to survive a bombing attack on the Tower.
Dickens's Grip,who had an impressive vocabulary,appears as a character in the author's fifth novel,Barnaby Rudge.On 28 January 1841,Dickens wrote to his friend George Cattermole:"my notion is to have Barnaby always in company with a pet raven,who is immeasurably more knowing than himself.To this end I have been studying my bird,and think I could make a very distinctive character of him."
Unfortunately,just a few weeks after Dickens wrote that letter,Grip died,probably as a result of having stolen and eaten paint some months earlier.The bird had developed a strange habit-tearing sections off painted surfaces (including the family's carriage) and even drinking a quantity of white paint out of a tin.Dickens mourned his loss and wrote a humorous letter to his friend,the illustrator Daniel Maclise,about the raven's death.
He related how,when Grip began to show signs of sikness,the vet was called and"administered a powerful dose of castor(蓖麻) oil".Initially this seemed to have a positive effect and the author was thrilled to see Grip restored to his usual personality when he bit the coachman (who was used to the raven and took it in good humor).The following morning,Grip was able to eat"some warm porridge",but his recovery was short lived.
As Dickens wrote to Maclise,"On the clock striking twelve he appeared slightly upset,but soon recovered,walking twice or thrice along the coach-house,stopped to bark,exclaimed‘Hello old girl'(his favorite expression) and died.He behaved throughout with a decent manner,which cannot be too much admired…The children seem rather glad of it.He bit their ankles.But that was play."

32.Which of the following is right about Dickens's pet Grip?B
A.he liked painting a lot.
B.he was quite ill before his death.
C.he could speak English fluently.
D.he and Mabel survived a bombing attack.
33.Why did Dickens study his bird Grip?D
A.Because the bird was very strange-looking.
B.Because Dickens liked the bird immeasurably.
C.Because Barnaby needs a companion who was always with him.
D.Because Dickens wanted to base one character of his novel on him.
34.What caused the death of Dickens's Grip?A
A.His strange diet.
B.His old age.
C.The killing of the coachman.
D.His bad habit of biting people.
35.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A
A.The writer's bird.
B.A bird in a novel.
C.The death of a bird.
D.Dickens and his bird.

9.Two people have died after two separate university shootings in Texas and Arizona,just hours apart.One person was killed and three injured in the first shooting at Northern Arizona University early on Friday.Later that morning a shooting at a student complex near Texas Southern University left one person dead.
In Arizona,police named the gunman there as Steven Jones,an 18-year-old first year student at Northern Arizona University.Mr.Jones told police he was approached by a group of men and attacked.He fled,produced a gun from his pocket and opened fire when the men caught up with him,Arizona police said.Witnesses told police that the victims were unarmed.
The second shooting in Texas happened later on Friday morning at the University Courtyard Apartments on the edge of the Houston campus.One student was killed,a freshman at the school,the university confirmed,and another person was wounded.Two people have been arrested as suspects and a third is still at large,said Houton police spokeswoman Jodi Silva.
The attacks came as President Barack Obama visited families of victims of a college shooting in Oregon.On arriving in Oregon,he was jeered(嘲笑) by gun rights activists who oppose calls he made for tougher gun laws after nine people were killed at Umpqua Community College,Roseburg,last week.
After a private meeting with families,Mr Obama said he had"strong feelings"about gun control,adding:"We are going to have to come together as a country to see how we can prevent these issues from taking place."
On the edge of this little American town,a few hundred protestos gathered to tell their president he was not welcome.Many were openly carrying handguns to hammer home their message.The demonstrators blamed the shooting here last week on two things:a failure to treat mental health problems and the designation of Umpqua Community College as a gun-free zone.Many of those we spoke to said they had travelled to Roseburg from elsewhere in Oregon to make their voices heard.The hostility(敵意) to the Democratic president here in Republican rural Oregon was not just political,it was personal.

28.How many people were dead in these two recent university shootings?B
A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.
29.Which of the following is right about the Northern Arizona University shooting?C
A.The victims attacked the gunman with knives.
B.The gunman shot the victims out of hate.
C.It was the victims who started the fight.
D.The gunman was about to graduate.
30.Mr.Obama probably agreed thatC.
A.gun control is too strict in most parts of America,especially in universities
B.designation of Umpqua community college as a gun-free zone is a wrong decision
C.Americans should be united to prevent criminal shooting from happening so frequently
D.A failure to treat mental health problems caused the shooting at Umpqua Community College
31.The underlined words in the last paragraph is closest in meaning toA.

8.Chinese female scientist Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Prize in medicine on October 5 for her discoveries concerning a novel treatment against Malaria(瘧疾).This is the first Nobel Prize given to a Chinese scientist for work carried out within China.
Tu shared the prize with Irish-born William Campbell and Satoshi Omura of Japan,who were honored for their revolutionary anti-roundworm treatment.84-year-old Tu is awarded this prize for her contribution to cutting the death rate of malaria,reducing patients'suffering and promoting mankind's health.Although she received several medical awards in the past,the 2015 Nobel Prize is definitely the most privilege reward that recognizes Tu's dedication and perseverance in discovering artemisinin(青蒿素),the key drug that battles malaria-friendly parasites(寄生蟲).
However,her route to the honor has been anything but traditional.She won the Nobel Prize for medicine,but she doesn't have a medical degree or a PhD.In China,she is even being called the"three-noes"winner:no medical degree,no doctorate,and she's never worked overseas.No wonder her success has stirred China's national pride and helped promote confidence of native Chinese scientists.
The fact that Tu has none of these three backgrounds reminds us that science should be more accessible to all.One shall be able to become a scientist no matter what kind of background he or she comes from,as long as one dives into scientific research.There have been discussions on people who really love science but are never able to achieve much during their whole life.Their contributions can never be ignored.They work so hard to prove the wrong way so that the future researchers will be closer to the right one.
As the first Chinese mainland Nobel Prize Winner of natural science award,Tu's record-breaking winning also serves as a reminder to those who are too eager for instant success.Science is never about instant success.Tu spent decades on scientific research before its value is officially acknowledged.There is no way to measure how much one devotes to science and compare it with how much reward he or she may get.

21.It can be concluded from the text thatA.
A.Her discovery of artemisinin has helped to cut Malaria death rate
B.Tu got the Nobel Prize for her anti-roundworm treatment
C.The Nobel Prize is the first award to recognize her work
D.Tu worked home and abroad to conduct her research
22.The author seems to agree that a person who is more likely to become a scientist is the one withC.
A.a(chǎn) sense of national pride
B.a(chǎn) desire to achieve success
C.enthusiasm for scientific research
D.relevant academic knowledge
23.In writing the passage,the author intends toD.
A.praise the award winner and encourage scientific research
B.remind readers of the principles of scientific research
C.discourage the pursuit of instant success in science
D.inform readers of the news and make comments.

6.Usain Bolt says he intends to defend his Olympic 100m and 200m sprint (短跑) titles at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games.The Jamaican,who kept both titles as well as the 4×100m in London,said he has decided against switching to either the 400m or long jump.
"To do the three sprints,that is the focus.I don't want to try any different events at Rio,"he said."I'll just defend my titles to show the world there's a possibility I can do it again."He insisted he had no intention of easing off in his training.
Bolt,who also holds the 100m and 200m world records,said he aimed to run even faster in the year of 2013,during which the World Championships will be held in Moscow.He added:"It's all about hard work.When I was doing great when I was young,people used to say I was fast for my age,but I have put a lot of work into it since I was a senior athlete.I continue to work hard,continue staying focused and pushing myself.I'm sure I can go faster each year.So for me the focus right now is to see how fast I can go."
Bolt became the first man to keep both Olympic sprint titles in a time of 19.32 seconds in the 200m in London in August,with Yohan Blake in silver and Warren Weir in bronze.It came after he had seen off Blake's challenge to win the 100m in 9.63 seconds,just 0.05 seconds slower than his own world record,in what was a new Olympic best.
Speaking after he had completed his second Olympic sprint treble (三連勝),Bolt had cast doubt on his participation in the events in Rio when he said:"My coach wants me to do 400m,but I want to try long jump.It's just about making different goals.There are a lot of things I can do in the sport."
 
56.It can be known from the first two paragraphs thatA.
A.Bolt has a clear sense of direction
B.Bolt won't practice as hard as ever
C.Bolt won two gold medals in London
D.Bolt is likely to switch to 400m sprint
57.From what Bolt says in the third paragraph we can infer thatD.
 A.he is too proud of himself
B.he is modest but stubborn
 C.he looks down on other athletes
D.he is hard-working and confident
58.What is the 100m world record according to the passage?A
A.9.58 seconds.B.9.63 seconds.C.9.66 seconds.D.9.68 seconds.
59.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?C
A.Bolt feels it extremely difficult to push himself ahead.
B.Bolt doesn't know which events he'd like to take part in in Rio.
 C.Bolt's idea of participation in the events is different from that of his coach.
 D.Bolt wants to achieve his second Olympic treble at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games.

5.Dubai:An Indian man killed himself in Dubai by throwing himself under a train after his employer refused him the right to return home,newspapers in the Gulf emirate reported on Thursday.A driverless Dubai Metro (地鐵) train struck the man on a track on Monday,the Gulf News daily said."His body was left beyond recognition and police took two days to identify him,"it reported.
"The 36-year-old had used an emergency fire exit to access the track,"the paper quoted Dubai police chief General Khamis al-Mazeina as saying,adding he was thought to have been under the influence of alcohol.A friend of the victim who had been in Dubai since 2010 told police the man was depressed and unhappy because he wanted to go back home but the sponsor (保薦人),for no clear reasons,was not letting him go.
 The Indian man?s work visa had been cancelled after he charged his employer.Under the sponsorship system (保薦制度) for foreign workers in the United Arab Emirates,employers take possession of their passports.
"We are looking for the reason why the company delayed sending the man back home,"Mazeina said.
The suicide is the first of its kind reported since the Dubai Metro began operations in September 2009.Platforms in metro stations are protected by glass doors that slide open only when a train is there.
 The UAE and other Gulf countries have come under repeated criticism from human rights groups over their treatment of millions of foreign workers,mostly South Asians.The watchdogs have particularly criticized the sponsorship system,still in force in most Gulf states,by which workers must be sponsored by their employer.
 
56.What's the best title of the article?A
A.Indian denied returning home jumps under Dubai train
B.The sponsorship system should be cancelled
C.Measures taken to avoid train accidents
D.Death caused by depression
57.Why was the man killed himself?D
A.Because he lost his passport.
B.Because he had a spiritual disease.
C.Because he had no home to go back.
D.Because he was refused to go back home.
58.What's the root cause of the man's death?C
A.The driver of the train.
B.The poor traffic system.
C.The sponsorship system.
D.The poor working condition.
59.Who kept the passport of the man?B
A.The man himself.
B.The man's employer.
C.The policeman.
D.The man's friend.

3.In the past years the popularity of rock climbing has greatly increased,and so has the number of injuries.It has been estimated that rock climbing is now enjoyed by more than 9 million people in the US each year.Study findings revealed a 65 percent increase in the number of patients that were treated in US emergency departments for rock climbing-related injuries between 1991 and 2011.
The study,published in the online issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine,found that about 40,000 patients were treated in US emergency departments for rock climbing-related injuries between 1991and 2011.The most common types of rock climbing-related injuries were fractures (骨折) and sprains (扭傷).The ankle was the most common body part to be injured (40 percent).Climbers in the study ranged in age from 2 to 74,with an average age of 26.The study also found that women took up a quarter of the injuries.
Falls were the primary reason for injury with over three-quarters of the injuries occurring as the result of a fall.The severity of fall-related injuries had a lot to do with the height of the fall.Patients who were injured after falling from a height over 20 feet were 10 times more likely to be treated than patients who were injured falling from 20 feet or lower.
"We found that the climbers who fell from heights higher than 20 feet took up 70 percent of the patients treated for a rock climbing-related injury,"explained the study author Lara McKenzie,PhD,director at the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Hospital."This trend,combined with the fact that rock climbers have a higher hospitalization rate than other sports and recreational injuries,demonstrates the need to increase injury prevention efforts for climbers."

63.Which body part is most likely to get injured for a climber?B
A.The arm.B.The ankle.C.The knee.D.The hand.
