I must have always knwn reading was very imprtant because the first memries I have as a child deal with bks. There was nt ne night that I dn’t remember Mm reading me a strybk by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the wrds sunded.
I always wanted t knw what my mm was reading. Hearing mm say, “I can’t believe what’s printed in the newspaper this mrning,” made me want t grab it ut f her hands and read it myself. I wanted t be like my mm and knw all f the things she knew. S I carried arund a bk, and each night, just t be like her, I wuld pretend t be reading.
This is hw everyne learned t read. We wuld start ff with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stries. It seemed an unending jurney, but even as a six-year-ld girl I realized that knwing hw t read culd pen many drs. When mm said, “The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden n the tp shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My prgress in reading raised my curisity, and I wanted t knw everything. I ften fund myself telling my mm t drive mre slwly s that I culd read all f the rad signs we passed.
Mst f my reading thrugh primary, middle and high schl was factual reading. I read fr knwledge, and t make A’s n my tests. Occasinally, I wuld read a nvel that was assigned, but I didn’t enjy this type f reading. I liked facts, things that are cncrete. I thught anything abstract left t much rm fr argument.
Yet, nw that I’m grwing and the wrld I nce knew as being s simple is becming mre cmplex, I find myself needing a way t escape. By pening a nvel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter int a fascinating and mysterius wrld where I am nw a new character. In these wrlds I can becme anyne. I dn’t have t write dwn what happened r what technique the authr was using when he r she wrte this. I just read t relax.
We’re taught t read because it’s necessary fr much f human understanding. Reading is a vital part f my life. Reading satisfies my desire t keep learning. And I’ve fund that the pssibilities that lie within bks are limitless.
4．Why did the authr want t grab the newspaper ut f mm’s hands?
A．She wanted mm t read the news t her.
B．She was anxius t knw what had happened.
C．She culdn’t wait t tear the newspaper apart.
D．She culdn’t help but stp mm frm reading.
5．What was the authr’s view n factual reading?
A．It wuld help her update test-taking skills.
B．It wuld allw much rm fr free thinking.
C．It wuld prvide true and bjective infrmatin.
D．It wuld shape her a realistic and serius attitude t life.
6．The authr takes nvel reading as a way t ________.
A．explre a fantasy land B．develp a passin fr learning
C．learn abut the adult cmmunity D．get away frm a cnfusing wrld
7．What culd be the best title fr the passage?
A．The Magic f Reading. B．The Pleasure f Reading.
C．Grwing Up with Reading.D．Reading Makes a Full Man.

Technlgy is develping by leaps and bunds. A device as small as a smartphne nw has mre prcessing pwer than rckets t the Mn nce had. New tech brings many advantages, making ur lives easier and pening up new pprtunities. One piece f kit that’s been really taking
ff recently is the drne. This piltless mini aircraft, riginally develped fr phtgraphy frm abve and war, is nw bringing us benefits clser t hme. In the last few years, tech cmpanies such as Amazn, Alphabet and Uber have prmised us delivery drnes—bringing gds t ur drsteps in a matter f minutes. Prgress in develping them has, hwever, been slw.
Drnes are helping t cnnect with and enhance the lives f peple in remte lcatins. In the UK, the Ryal Mail wants a fleet f 500 drnes t help deliver the mail t far-flung cmmunities. Windracers, the cmpany develping the drnes, say they can fly in fg and prduce 30% fewer emissins than cmparable pilted aircraft. And in Cventry in the UK, cnstructin has started n an air hub, which will act as a base fr plice and delivery drnes. Urban-Air Prt Limited is wrking with car-maker Hyundai n the mini-airprt, knwn as a skyprt.
Drnes culd als play a part in imprving the health f millins f peple. In Zanzibar, fr example, they’re being used t spray wetlands against malaria(疟疾). And writing fr BBC Future website, Harriet Cnstable describes an incredible develpment prject by the University f Suth Australia. The plan is fr drnes t eventually be able t survey ppulatins fr disease by reading the bld xygen levels f humans frm the air. They’ll als be able t scan fr ther vital signs, like cughing and a high temperature.
It seems that in the sky there is n limit fr what drne technlgy can achieve. The nly thing that smetimes keeps it grunded is regulatin. Writing fr the BBC, Jessica Brwn says, “If ur skies are t becme as crwded as ur streets, airspace rules need updating t prevent accidents.” There are als related prblems, such as nise pllutin.
8．What was the drne initially used fr?
A．Explring the Mn.B．Images and military.
C．Special delivery r express.D．Transprting gds.
9．Which can replace the underlined wrd “hub” in Paragraph 2?
A．Centre.B．Branch.C．Garage.D．Field.
10．What des Paragraph 3 imply?
A．Drnes culd take ver dctrs’ duties in the future.
B．Drnes can play a rle in imprving peple’s health.
C．Drnes can cure patients suffering frm varius diseases like malaria.
D．Human beings will eventually vercme all kinds f stubbrn diseases.
11．What des the authr mean t d by quting Jessica Brwn?
A．Emphasize there is n limit fr drnes develpment.
B．Ignre the disadvantages the develpment f drnes will bring.
C．Urge the rules f drnes management t be updated.
D．Prve the develpment f drnes is beneficial withut harming.

When elderly peple stay active, their brains have mre f a class f prteins that enhances the cnnectins between neurns (神经元) t maintain healthy cgnitin (认知), a UC San Francisc study has fund.
“Our wrk is the first that uses human data t shw that synapse prtein regulatin (突触蛋白质调节) is related t physical activity and may drive the beneficial cgnitive utcmes we see,” said Kaitlin Casalett, PhD, an assistant prfessr f neurlgy and lead authr n the study. The beneficial effects f physical activity n cgnitin have been shwn in mice but have been much harder t demnstrate in peple.
The prject tracked the late-life physical activity f elderly participants, wh als agreed t
dnate their brains when they died. Maintaining the integrity(完整性) f these cnnectins between neurns may be vital t fighting against mental disrder, since the synapse is really the site where cgnitin happens. Physical activity—a readily available tl—may help bst this synaptic functining.
Casalett fund that elderly peple wh remained active had higher levels f prteins that facilitate the exchange f infrmatin between neurns. This result agreed with the earlier finding that peple wh had mre f these prteins in their brains when they died were better able t maintain their cgnitin late in life.
“It may be that physical activity generates a glbal sustaining effect, supprting the healthy functin f prteins that facilitate synaptic transmissin thrughut the brain,” Casalett said.
The brains f mst lder adults stre pisnus prteins that are the marks f mental illnesses, and the prteins can cause synapses and neurns t fall apart. “In lder adults with higher levels f the prteins assciated with synaptic integrity, this effect that leads t mental diseases appears t be weakened,” she said. “The study shws the ptential imprtance f maintaining synaptic health t supprt the brain against mental diseases like Alzheimer’s.”
12．What helps elderly peple keep cgnitive ability accrding t the study?
A．Prteins prduced during physical activity.
B．Bdy tissues with healthy chemical substances.
C．A certain cnnectin between the brain regins.
D．A type f neurn frmed while they’re thinking.
13．What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A．Mental diseases may affect synaptic health.
B．Lw levels f prteins help t prevent Alzheimer’s.
C．Synaptic integrity safeguards brains against mental illnesses.
D．The brain can autmatically break dwn the pisnus prteins.
14．What’s the purpse f the text?
A．T present a research result.B．T give practical advice.
C．T tell an interesting stry.D．T slve an academic prblem.
15．What can be the best title f the text?
A．Breakthrughs Have Been Made in the Field f Neurns.
B．Casalett Makes Achievements in Studying Human Brains.
C．Ways Are Created t Ensure the Physical Health f the Old.
D．Exercise Changes Brain Chemistry t Prtect Aging Synapses.
