When I was six, I embarrassed a boy in class by telling the teacher he'd wet himself. He sat far behind me but I smelled it, intensely. He was so upset that my grandmother was called into school. When we got home, she warned, “Never use your sense of smell for that again.” She explained that I, like her, had hereditary hyperosmia, meaning I'm a super-smeller.

My husband Les and I both pursued medical careers. One day, I was struck by the smell of a patient. I later learned that she had diabetes （糖尿病） and what I smelled was raised ketones, a chemical produced by the liver （肝）. I knew doctors wouldn't accept my diagnoses （诊断）, so I stayed quiet.

In 1982, before Les's 32nd birthday, I smelt something strange on him. I thought it might be the air of' the place he worked in. Twelve years later, in 1994, he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. It wasn't until the last months of his life, more than 20 years later, that we discovered I could detect the disease in others, too.

We felt a responsibility to do something. We attended a lecture by Prof. Kunath, a neurobiologist. I asked, "Why is the smell of Parkinson's not being used for early diagnosis?, , He didn't answer and we left, disappointed. But four months later, he called our home. He had found me after relaying my question to a colleague, who told him, "You must find her. " We began to work as a team to prove my theory.

When Les died in 2015, he made me promise I'd carry on the research. I spent time in labs, smelling sufferers9 skin oil on swabs （棉签）. I could detect whether the person had Parkinson's with 95% accuracy. This year, our research team published a breakthrough: a three-minute test that can detect the disease by running a swab along someone's neck.

I've become known and delivered many lectures. I'm working on

detecting cancers and tuberculosis. I never imagined, at 72, this would be my lift's work. I constantly think about how I lost my Les, but also how I finally fulfilled my promise.

24. What did the author do when she smelt something strange on her husband?

A. She took the smell lightly.  B. She drove him to hospital.

C. She warned him of a disease.  D. She made him shower more.

The widespread sedentary （久坐不动的）lifestyle has become a problem in America, fueling the rising obesity （肥胖）rate.

Now a new study finds that being surrounded by active friends can help a person living a sedentary lifestyle get more exercise each day. Researchers at the US Military Academy found that people in social groups where exercise is valued are more likely to be more active themselves. Lonely people are more likely to live sedentary lifestyles without another person around to give them a boost. The findings highlight the idea that the company a person keeps can be a boost to their overall health and direction in life.

Dr. Diana Thomas, a professor at a military school and study author said that the idea for the research came from real life experiences on the campus. Her team had noticed a trend of people becoming more interested in fitness and other activities once arriving at the school. This is not usually the case at other schools and workplaces, where there is no significant impact on fitness. Thomas believed that this trend could be the result of in-group social conditioning, where people will take part in activities that others around them are doing.

People whose data were gathered for the study were split into three groups based on their physical activity level 一 sedentary, moderately and extremely active. Moderately active folks were the most important for drawing people who are sedentary to become active, and to sustain that activity. Thomas explained that sedentary people would be unlikely to change their behavior when placed in a group of the extremely active, as it would seem unattainable.

28. Why does the author mention the rising obesity rate in the first paragraph?

A. To make comparisons.  B. To introduce the topic.

C. To support the argument.  D. To provide examples.

29. What helps a sedentary person become active?

A. Volunteering in social groups. B. Working in a caring company.

C. Joining sports-loving friends. D. Giving a lonely neighbor a boost.

30. What might have caused the trend at the military school?

A. Requirements from the school.

B. People's natural addition to sports.

C. Social interaction within a group.

D. Competition against other schools.

31. Why are extremely active people less influential according to Dr. Thomas?

A. They have no appeal for sedentary people.

B. They are unwilling to involve sedentary people.

C. They themselves often fail to sustain exercising.

D. They seem like an example beyond sedentary people.

D

Whales, particularly baleen and sperm whales, are among the largest creatures on Earth. Their presence in the ocean shapes the ecosystems around them. These creatures are also helping to determine the temperature of the planet.

When whales die, they sink to the ocean floor and all the carbon that is stored in their extremely large bodies is transferred from surface waters to the deep sea, where it remains for centuries or more. Scientists found that before industrial whaling, populations of whales would have sunk between 190, 000 to 1. 9 million tonnes of carbon per year to the bottom of the ocean, which equals taking between 40, 000 and 410, 000 cars off the road each year. But when they are killed and their bodies are prevented from sinking to the seabed, that carbon is released into the atmosphere.

But whales are not only valuable in death. The tides of excrement （排泄物）that whales produce are also surprisingly relevant to the climate. Their iron-rich excrement creates the perfect growing conditions for phytoplankton （浮游植物）. These creatures may be microscopic, but, taken together, they have a great influence on the planet's atmosphere, absorbing about 40% of all CO2 produced, four times the amount absorbed by the Amazon rainforest.

“Whaling has removed a huge organic carbon pump from the ocean that would have been having a much larger multiplying effect on phytoplankton productivity and the ocean's ability to absorb carbon, " says Vicki James, policy manager at Whale and Dolphin Conservation.

What this means is that restoring whale populations to their pre-whaling numbers could be an important tool in fighting climate change, and helping to slightly reduce the large amount of CO2 from fossil fuels every year.

32. What happens to the carbon stored in whales after they are hunted?

A. It remains in their bodies.  B.  It enters the atmosphere.

C. It sinks to the deep sea.  D.  It transfers to surface waters.

33. What does the underlined word "microscopic" mean in Paragraph 3?

A. Tiny.  B.  Destructive.   C. Extinct.  D.  Rare.

34. What can we infer from the text?

A. Whales are more valuable after they die.

B. Excrement of whales accelerates global warming.

C. 40% of CO2 is absorbed by the Amazon rainforest.

D. Whaling has a negative influence on climate change.

35. Which is the best title of the text?

A. What We can Do to Save Whales

B. How Whales Help Cool the Earth

C. What is Climate Change Doing to Whales

D. Why Whale Populations are Declining Sharply

I yawned （打哈欠）as I got off the last step of the bus. I had woken early that morning, and had not been able to sleep on the long ride from Riverside High, thinking about that day's race, the Eye Opener. I had never raced in a state-wide race before. Over thirty high school teams ran, along with quite a few colleges. The rest of my team and I unloaded the bus, and we relaxed and waited for our race patiently.

"Start warming up, " our coach told us, roughly forty-five minutes after we arrived. After finishing our stretches, we headed over to the starting line, eager for the race to begin.

The starter walked to the middle of the field. “There will be two commands, his voice boomed, ''Runners set, then the gun. If you hear another shot, return to the starting line to start again. ” My heart raced as I got my legs ready to race.

"Runners set!” the starter shouted Bam! The gun fired, and he rushed out of our w呼 Adrenaline （肾上腺素）rushed through my body as I raced through the mass of runners. As I rounded the first turn, my schoolmates greeted me with heartening shouts. Then, in what felt like only one minute, I arrived at the one mile mark.

"6’10", " a man declared as I ran by. I tried to ignore him, but my legs began to bum as I realized I had run a mile and still had two to go. I slowed down my pace, for I knew the second mile was the worst of all three. Minutes later, I felt horrible. My legs ached, feeling like lead blocks. My vision was clouded as sweat dropped down into my eyes, and my arms felt as if they would fall off if I swung them one more time. Just as I almost reached my limit, a boy passed me. He also seemed to have lost strength but soon he was a little ahead of me.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

I gathered up my strength to speed up but suddenly fell to the ground.

In the last mile, seeing the athletes passing us one by one, I asked the boy to run without me.
