Jonathan the tortoise, the world's oldest land animal, turned 190 over the weekend on the island of St. Helena, where he enjoyed a “cake” of leafy greens, seasonal fruits and vegetables, including carrots carved into the number “190”.

Jonathan was brought to St. Helena from the Seychelles in 1882 as a gift.  According to Guinness World Records, Jonathan surpassed the previous record holder, Tu'i Malila, who lived in the 1770s until 1965 and could be even older. He arrived in St. Helena as a fully mature tortoise, meaning he was at least 50 in 1882.

“The vet is still feeding him by hand once a week to boost his calories, vitamins, minerals and trace elements, as he is blind and has no sense of smell. His hearing, however, is excellent and he enjoys the company of humans, and responds well to his vet Joe Hollins'  voice as he associates him with a feast.” Guinness World Records said.

“The tortoise enjoys the sun but on very hot days takes to the shade. On mild days, he will sunbathe his long neck and legs stretched fully out of his shell to absorb heat and transfer it to his core,”  says

Hollins. When it's cold, Jonathan has been known to “dig himself into leaf mold or grass cuttings and remain there all day.”

In most cases, the lifespan of a tortoise or turtle depends on the species and level of care they receive. Generally, they live much longer in captivity than in the wild, because in the wild, they must find their own food in addition to evading predators while not getting medical treatment. Larger turtle and tortoise species also tend to live longer than their smaller counterparts. Click here for more information about animal record holders.

24.In which year might Jonathan be born?

A.In 1882.

B.In 1832.

C.In 1965.

D.In 1770.

25.Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the text?

A.Jonathan had a birthday cake made of fruits, vegetables, and meat.

B.Jonathan was born and raised on the island of St.Helena.

C. Jonathan is a very old but healthy tortoise with full senses.

D.Jonathan is the Guinness World holder of the oldest land animal.

26.Which of the following is not a reason why a tortoise in the wild has a relatively shorter lifespan?

A.Species differences.

C.Lack of medical treatment.

B.Food shortage.

D.Animal enemies.

27.Where can readers probably find the article?

A.In a biology textbook.

C.In a science fiction.

B.On a news website.

D.In a travel brochure.

For the past three decades, Richard Sears, aged 71,has been dedicated to one thing: telling the stories behind Chinese characters.

His interest in Chinese language and characters dates back to 1972, when he was 22, majoring in physics at Portland State University in Oregon.  “I realized only 7 percent of the world speak English as a mother tongue. I wondered what it was like to speak another language." By 1990, Sears was already a fluent Chinese speaker, but did not know how to read. To Sears, the characters were complex with many strokes（笔画）and almost no apparent logic.

“I am a physicist, so I don't like blind memorization in learning languages. I knew that Chinese characters came from pictographs（象形文字）and I wanted to know the stories behind them.” In the process of the study, Sears soon realized that many of the explanations could not possibly be true. To pick out the good ones, he decided to computerize the characters, and then scanned about 96,000 ancient characters.

The database of ancient characters came into being, but he wanted to explain the step-by-step evolvement of these characters from the original pictographs to the modern simplified forms. He then got his website up in 2002 and named it Chinese Etymology（词源），where viewers can check for free the evolvement of Chinese characters in various forms. Between 2002 and 2011, the website would get 11,000 or 15,000 hits a day. Suddenly, in January 2011,clicks to the website went up to 600,000 within one day. Overnight he became Uncle Hanzi, a nickname given by Chinese netizens, after one of them shared his website on Chinese social media.

Besides the website, in September last year, Sears set up his studio, focusing on applying AR, animation and artificial intelligence to telling stories of Chinese culture and character origins, in Nanjing as part of the local authority's plan to cultivate talent in the culture sector. “They have both entertainment value for the young and educational value and can teach the origins of Chinese characters. We also want to make videos with a high educational value for other platforms for Chinese and foreign learners of Chinese characters.” Sears says.

28.What do we know about Richard Sears?

A.He has made an exploration into Chinese characters.

B.He learned Chinese to improve his physics.

C.He was fluent in reading Chinese from the beginning.

D.He was concerned about the spread of his mother tongue.

29.What does the underlined word “ones” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A.Characters.

B.Explanations.

C.Pictographs.

D.Languages.

30.What can be inferred about Sears' website?

A. It gained popularity shortly after its establishment.

B. It has made a big profit from netizens visiting it.

C.It concentrates on the simplification of Chinese characters.

D.It bridges the evolvement of Chinese characters to the public.

31.Which of the following best describes Richard Sears?

A.Ambitious and humorous.

C.Enthusiastic and devoted.

B.Wise but careless.

D. Generous but stubborn.

Someday, you may no longer need to brush your teeth by hand. Instead, a group of billions of nanoparticles（纳米粒子）could automatically do it for you. It would be especially life-changing for those who find it difficult or impossible to hold and move a toothbrush.

Steager, an engineer at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and Hyun Koo, an inventor and dental researcher there，found a way to form the nanoparticles into long， skinny bristles（刷毛），a lot like the ones on a toothbrush. But these bristles shape-shift to fit whatever surface they encounter.

The tooth-cleaning robot works due to two magnets（磁铁）.One goes each side of the teeth. The nanoparticles sit in a liquid between the magnets. When the magnets are turned off, the nanoparticles move randomly in the liquid. As soon as one magnet gets turned on, the nanoparticles gather together near its center. When the researchers turn on the other magnet and turn off the first one, the nanoparticles extend outward in long, skinny bristles. When there's a tooth in the way, these bristles can't stretch out as far as they want. So they push against the tooth's surface. If there's a gap between teeth, they push into the gap. Moving the magnets makes the bristles move against and between teeth. All that motion cleans the teeth. As a bonus, the nanoparticles also have strong power to kill viruses.

The new device is just a proof of concept. The researchers still need to turn it into a product that people will want to use. “There's a lot of engineering to get from here to there, but every good idea needs to have a start.” says Steager.

32.What is special about the tooth cleaner?

A. It's transformable.

C.It contains skinny bristles.

B.It's water-proof.

D.It looks like a toothbrush.

33.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A.The working principle.

C.The virus-killing process.

B. The magnets' motion.

D.The bristles' formation.

34.How does Steager feel about the future of the device?

A.Uncertain.

B.Concerned.

C.Confident.

D.Shocked.

35.Which of the following would be the best title?

A.A Tooth-Cleaner Fighting Bacteria

C.A Breakthrough in Medicine

B.A New Concept for a New Start

D.A Shape-Shifting Robotic Tooth-Gleaner

Some people love setting goals each Jan.1. 36.However, there is indeed a logic to joining the New Year's resolution trend. If you are to increase the chances of sticking to your resolution, behavioral scientists have discovered techniques that may help.

Make it measurable

An unclear, poorly-defined target, like “get fitter”, is a reason for a failed resolution. To increase your chances of success, ask yourself what you consider “fitter”, and how you can make it.  A better solution might be “run 5 km a day”. 37. Specific goals allow you to keep track of progress, which in turn can get you motivated.

Make it fun

If you get delight form your workouts or study sessions, research has found that you will carry on longer. 38.For instance, treating yourself with a coke during the sessions so there is an attraction to get you to the library.

39

Ensuring you will face some punishment if you don't achieve your New Year's resolution can work wonders. An effective way to do this is by telling some people about your goal so you will feel ashamed if they check back later and find out that you haven't followed through.

Get help from your peers.

Spending time around high achievers can help promote your own performance. If you have made a resolution to run a marathon, it would be wise for you to start hanging around friends who have make it to the finish line and can show you how it is done. 40 , because you are bound to learn their patterns of behavior.

A.Make a resolution list

B.Figure out a punishment

C.You are extra motivated to set your goals

D.You will pick up a bit just by spending time together

E.You could even add deadlines for reaching certain important stages

F.Others argue it is a waste of time since most resolutions fail by mid-March

G.One way to make going for a goal more fun is to combine it with a pleasure

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

People may misunderstand what they used to be familiar with. I remember a 41 professor, invited to our school, taught stress management principles in a school hall 42 with students.

As she 43 a glass of water, each of us expected we'd be asked the 44 “glass half-empty or glass half-full" question. 45,with a smile on her face, the professor asked, “How 46 is this glass of water I'm holding?”

All of us shouted out answers ranging from 8 ounces to a couple of pounds.

She then replied, “From my point if view, the absolute weight of this glass doesn't matter. It all 47 how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute or two, it's rather light. If I hold it for an hour straight, its weight might make my arm 48 a bit. If I hold it for a day straight, my arm will likely cramp up and feel 49 numb and paralyzed, 50 me to drop the glass to the floor. In each case mentioned above, the 51 of the glass doesn't change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it feels to me.”

As the whole class 52 our heads in agreement, she continued, “Your 53  and worries in life are very much like this glass of water. Think about them for a little while and 54 happens. Think about them a bit longer and you begin to suffer a little. Think about them all day long, and you will feel specially numb and paralyzed-_55_of doing anything else 56 you drop them.”

It's important to remember to 57 your stresses and worries. Whatever happens during the day, as early in the evening as you can, put all your burdens down. Don't 58 them through the night and into the next day with you. If you still feel the weight of 59 stress, it's a strong sign that it's time to put the 60 down.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Does Takeaway Exist in Ancient China?

As early as in the Song Dynasty, “takeout” services were already available. In Zhang Zeduan's popular painting Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival, there is a restaurant boy who has just come out of the shop with “to-go boxes” in his left hand and tableware（餐具）in his right，still 61（wear）the shop apron and seeming to deliver the food somewhere. That image is believed to be a reflection of the original takeaway boy.

In ancient times, there were three ways to order food. The first is servant order. Send a family servant to go to a restaurant and make 62 order. When the food is ready, there is someone who 63(particular) delivers the food to the customer's home, and then gets paid. The second is agreed delivery. Sign a long-term 64(agree)with the restaurant. The store, 65 every agreed day, will pack the food well and send 66 to the customer’s home. The last one is door-to-door selling. The sellers from restaurants sell the food door to door, especially in the entertainment places like theaters, 67 are crowded with many people.

The to-go box，we pan （warm tray），68（consist）of two layers of porcelain（瓷）．When 69 (use),hot water is injected into the interlayer of the plate 70(keep)the dishes warm. In this way, the dish is still warm when it arrives at the customer's home.

High school is considered the most important stage in one's life. It won't be long when I graduate. Now I have many things to share my fellows. First of all, I'd like to express my thanks to those who lend me a hand when I was disappointing. It was their kindness which helped me regain my self-confidence when I lost my heart. Beside, I am terribly anxious to clear up some misunderstanding with my friends in order to keep our friendships forever.
