Thirteen-year-old Kaylee has a lot of friends — 532, actually, if you count up her online friends. And she spends a lot of time with them.

But is it possible that Kaylee’s online friendships could be making her lonely? That’s what some experts believe. Connecting online is a great way to stay in touch, they say. However, some experts worry that many kids are so busy connecting online that they might be missing out on true friendships.

Could this be true? During your parents’ childhoods, connecting with friends usually meant spending time with them in the flesh. Kids played Scrabble around a table, not Words With Friends on their phones. When friends missed each other, they picked up the telephone. Friends might even write letters to each other.

Today, most communication takes place online. A typical teen sends 2,000 texts a month and spends more than 44 hours per week in front of a screen. Much of this time is spent on social media platforms.

In fact, in many ways, online communication can make friendships stronger, “There’s definitely a positive influence. Kids can stay in constant contact, which means they can share more of their feelings with each other,” says Katie Davis, co-author of The App Generation.

Other experts, however, warn that too much online communication can get in the way of forming deep friendships. “If we are constantly checking in with our virtual words, we will have little time for our real-world friendships.” says Larry Rosen, a professor at California State University. Rosen also worries that today’s kids might mistake the “friends” on the social media for true friends in life. However, in tough times, you don’t need someone to like your picture or share your blogs. You need someone who will keep your secrets and hold your hand. You would like to talk face to face.

24. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?

A. To summarize the text. B. To bring up a discussion.

C. To tell about true friends. D. To encourage online friendship.

25. What does the underlined part “in the flesh” mean in Paragraph 3?

A. In person. B. In advance. C. In silence. D. In a word.

26. What is Katie’s attitude towards online communication?

A. Worried.  B. Positive. C. Confused. D. Unconcerned.

27. What view does Rosen hold?

A. It’s wise to turn to friends online.

B. It’s easier to develop friendships in reality.

C. Social media help people stay closely connected.

D. Teenagers need focus on real-world friendships.

C

Japanese researchers are genetically changing mosquitoes so that they become carriers of a vaccine (疫苗) that could vaccinate millions for free. The researchers have already genetically changed a mosquito species so that its saliva (唾液) contains a protein that acts as a vaccine against leishmaniasis(利什曼病）, a deadly disease that leads to terrible skin problems. The team confirmed that mice bitten by the genetically-engineered mosquito developed an antibody to the disease, meaning they had built up immunity (免疫力).

“You would be vaccinated without even noticing. You wouldn’t need any drug and you wouldn’t need to show up at a fixed place for mass vaccinations,” said Shigeto Yoshida, the associate professor who has led the research. “Repeated bites would only strengthen the immunity.”

Similarly the mosquitoes could be used to help treat malaria (疟疾), perhaps a decade from now, said the malaria expert.

Nearly one million people die each year from malaria ---- most of them are children ---- mainly in Africa and Asia, according to the World Health Organization. Now a problem is that no effective vaccine exists. “There is a treatment that works, but it is beyond the reach of people who need to worry about food for tomorrow,” Yoshida said.

However, Yoshida expects that the genetically-engineered mosquito will finally help wipe out the deadly disease in the developing world. “Technically speaking, I believe it’s a matter of 10 years or so, but it’s not clear whether society would accept it,” he said.

Another problem is that the genetically-engineered mosquito may still pick up and spread the infected blood of a person who has already caught malaria. Yoshida’s team is hoping it can solve this problem by developing a mosquito species that kills the malaria virus inside its own body.

28. How have scientists turned mosquitoes into carriers of a vaccine?

A. By changing their genes. B. By killing the virus in their bodies.

C. By letting them bite mice. D. By injecting vaccines into their bodies.

29. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of using mosquitoes as vaccine carriers?

A. It’s free of charge. B. It’s convenient.

C. It’s more effective. D. It’s unnoticeable.

30. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?

A. People welcome the idea of using mosquitoes to treat malaria.

B. Mosquitoes carrying vaccines may still spread malaria.

C. It is not long before people will use mosquitoes to get rid of malaria.

D. A mosquito can kill the malaria virus inside its own body.

31. The main purpose of the passage is to ______.

A. introduce a possible solution to malaria

B. encourage people to use mosquitoes to fight against diseases

C. show that Japan has very advanced technology

D. call on people to help people suffering from malaria in Africa and Asia

D

We already know that salt can lead to heart disease. But could it also affect our mind? Scientists found that a high-salt diet caused cognitive impairments in mice and it could produce the same effect on humans.

Costantino Iadecola, director of the Feil Family Brain and Mind Research the Institute, said they fed the mice eight to sixteen times their normal salt intake and then tested the mice. After about three months, the mice had a big change in their behavior. Mice are very curious, and they like to look for new things. However, the tested mice lost the ability to identify a normal object. When the mice were put in their cage and asked to find a quiet spot, they did not remember where the quiet spot was. Then when the mice were building a nest, which is something the mice do daily, they, were unable to do so. The research suggested humans would experience a similar response.

Studies have shown Australians eat around double the recommended amount of salt each day, most of it coming from processed food. Dr. Ladecola said the estimated two teaspoons of salt the average Australian eats each day could affect the brain function in the long term. However, the decline might not be as obvious as in the mice, who were given extremely high levels of salt. “But probably over years and perhaps decades—as opposed to a few months for the mouse—even lower levels of salt may have a terrible effect,” Dr ladecola said.

“High levels of salt cause serious immune changes in the organs in and around the stomach, resulting in an almost autoimmune effect on the brain. It is part of a growing body of evidence that we really are what we eat,” Bryce Vissel, director of the Centre for Neuroscience at the University of Technology Sydney, said. “Those changes in turn cause all sorts of responses in the body, which over time certainly contribute to cognitive impairments.”

32. Which can describe the tested mice?

A. They remained quiet all day.  B. They became smarter than ever.

C. They forgot some routine things. D. They were quick at finding objects.

33. What do we know about Australians?

A. They ignore health advice.  B. They have a higher-salt diet.

C. They dislike processed food. D. They value their brain health.

34. What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?

A. Studies carried out by Bryce Vissel.

B. Immune changes brought about by salt.

C. Effects of daily diets on human behaviors.

D. Links between salt intake and brain damage.

35. What does the text suggest?

A. Brain health counts much.   B. The body never tells a lie.

C. Low-salt diet is to be advocated. D. Heart diseases can be prevented.

“I don’t want to go.” Maria moved her feet slightly and hung her shoulders. Mom continued packing a bag. “We’re going to Uncle Rich’s in Montana for summer vacation. He’s your father’s brother, and we go there every year.”

Maria stormed out of her mom's room and said angrily, “Nobody ever thinks of me!” “That’s enough. We're going.” replied Mom angrily, too.

Their August vacation came sooner than Maria wanted. Before she knew it, she and the family were at Uncle Rich’s farm. Uncle Rich grabbed her dad and hugged him. Maria grabbed her bag, “I’m going to my room.”

“Wait a minute, Maria,” said Uncle Rich. “I have got something to show you.” At the barn (牲口棚) Maria saw the horse. It was of medium size. It had a fine, soft black coat and one white foot. There was a wide white patch (斑) that ran down the center of its face. Maria fell in love with it at first sight. “Wow! What a horse!”

“He's a mustang,” said Uncle Rich. “Mustangs are free horses who live in the wild. We found him stuck in the mud down by the river. My friend and I roped him and managed to get him out.”

Maria kicked the dirt. “Can I help care for him?” Then she felt her heart beating in expectation.

Uncle Rich laughed. “You bet. The more hands we have, the better. Just don’t get too attached. Once we’re sure he’s okay, we will have to set him free. Mustangs went from over a million at the beginning of the 20th century to less than 17,000 in 1970. They were hunted illegally for meat.”

注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；

【答案】Good morning everybody! It’s my honor to speak here, and I am very glad to share my topic with you. Then today I'd like to talk about whether students go to school with mobile phones. Today, more and more students go to school with mobile phones. Many students are in favour of it. Firstly, it is easier for them to keep in touch with their parents and friends. Secondly, mobile phones will make their lives more colourful, because students are under too much pressure.

However, some teachers and parents don't think so. They believe it will make it hard for students to concentrate on their lessons, and they often spend too much money on phone calls and sending messages.

In my opinion, they can do that. It is really of great help, especially when they are in danger. Students can take mobile phones to school as long as they use them properly. OK, thank you for listening, that's all.

【答案】Paragraph 1:

Hearing this, Maria felt her stomach turn. “That’s terrible! Some actions should be taken to protect them,” Maria said. “It’s better now,” said Uncle Rich. “The government came to the rescue. Their number is increasing.” Hearing this, Maria breathed a sigh of relief. In a blink of an eye, she raced to her room, dropped her bag and got changed.

Paragraph 2:

Maria hurried back to the barn in a flash. The mustang walked over to her slowly and stopped in front of her. Maria put her hand on his forehead. The mustang gently shook his head and wagged its tail. At that very moment, Maria was determined to help the black beauty back to the wild. Moreover, she was sure she would have an unforgettable vacation here.
