Born in 1954, Oprah Winfrey is best known for her multi-award-winning talk show as the most influential woman in the world. It's no surprise that her recognition can bring overnight sales fortune that defeats most, if not all, marketing campaigns. The star features about 20 products each year on her "Favorite Things" show. There's even a term for it: the Oprah Effect.
Her television career began unexpectedly. When she was 16 years old, she had the idea of being a journalist to tell other people's stories in a way that made a difference in their lives and the world. She was on television by the time she was 19 years old. And in 1986 she started her own television show with a continuous determination to succeed at first.
TIME magazine wrote, "People would have doubted Oprah Winfrey's swift rise to host of the most popular talk show on TV. In a field dominated by white males, she is a black female of big size. As interviewers go, she is no match for Phil Donahue. What she lacks in journalistic toughness, she makes up for in plainspoken curiosity, rich humor and, above all understanding. Guests with sad stories to tell tend to bring out a tear in Oprah's eye. They, in turn, often find themselves exposing things they would not imagine telling anyone, much less a national TV audience."
"I was nervous about the competition and then I became my own competition raising the bar every year, pushing, pushing, pushing myself as hard as I knew. It doesn't matter how far you might rise. At some point you are likely to fall if you' re constantly doing what we do, raising the bar. If you' re constantly pushing yourself higher, higher the law of averages, you will at some point fall. And when you do, I want you to know this, remember this: there is no such thing as failure. Failure is just life trying to move us in another direction" as Oprah addressed graduates at Harvard on May 30.
4. What does the Oprah Effect refer to in the first paragraph?
A. the influence on talk show hosts B. the power of Oprah's opinions.
C. the effect on a business. D. the audience of Oprah's talk show.
5. What can be inferred about Oprah's television career?
A. She must have been challenged a lot B. She gained fame as planned.
C. It lives up to her parents' expectation. D. She once gave up on her choice.
6. What message did Oprah give to Harvard graduates?
A. Success comes after failure. B. Pushing physical limits makes no sense
C. Aiming higher hurts D. Failure is part of life.
7 Which of the following best describes Oprah Winfrey?
A. Friendly. B. Humorous
C. Determined. D. Patient
C
As a 51-year-old first-aid responder since 1984, Jeffrey never knows what type of situation he might walk into, or who he'll meet along the way

"That day changed my life," Jeffrey said. "Before that, everything was about work…When I talk to my beginner-training class, I tell them you never know the effect you can have on someone's life."

Researchers say spicy tomatoes could soon be on the menu thanks to the rise of gene-editing technology.
It's not the first time that experts have claimed techniques could develop fruit with unusual features: scientists have already been looking at changing the color of kiwi fruit and bettering the taste of strawberries.
But researchers in Brazil and Ireland say such methods could also offer practical advantages, with hot tomatoes offering a new way of harvesting the pungent chemicals found in peppers known as capsaicinoids, which make food taste “hot”.
“Capsaicinoids are valuable. They are used as painkillers and there are some researches showing that they promote weight loss,” said Agustin Zsogon from a Brazilian university, a co-author of a new article arguing for the benefits of engineering hot tomatoes.
Writing in the journal Trends in Plant Science, the researchers say peppers are difficult crops to grow and low productive. Worse still, it is tricky to keep the pungency of the fruits table. By contrast, tomato production is high and the plant is well-studied. “You could produce the capsaicinoids in a more cost-effective manner,” said Zsogon.
Tomatoes and peppers developed from a common ancestor, but separated about 19 million years ago. “All these genes to produce capsaicinoids exist in the tomato, they are just not active,” said Zsogon. “Using gene-editing technology, it is likely to switch these genes back on in tomatoes, making the fruit more special”, he said.
12. Why are the tomatoes made hot by the researchers?
A. To test the gene-editing technology B. To improve the amount of the tomatoes
C. To explore ways to harvest more capsaicinoids. D. To make the tomatoes more delicious.
13. For what purpose can capsaicinoids be used according to the text?
A. To put on weight. B. To ease the pain.
C. To improve sleep. D. To better the look.
14. What is Zsogon's attitude to the gene-editing technology?
A. Confident. B. Critical. C. Anxious. D. Doubtful.
15. What's the main idea of the text?
A. An introduction to gene-editing plants. B. Creating hot tomatoes by gene-editing.
C. Problems with capsaicinoid production. D. The procedure of producing capsaicinoids.

Next morning, Amy went to school cursing（咒骂）everyone possible for having to go to school. Even in school, Amy had a reputation（名声）of sorts for all the wrong reasons. She slept in class and did not finish her work. In playtime, Amy had to go out and play, but she tried to find an excuse saying that she was tired when someone caught her walking away.
She came home with leftovers in her lunchbox or other complaint almost every day, and that day was also no different.
"Who can help me to change my daughter?" Hannah wondered.
Hannah never believed in raising her voice or raising her arm on Amy or on anyone for that matter. She believed and wished that her love and patience would one day change Amy.
One day a new family moved into Amy's apartment. They were very friendly people. They wanted to acquaint（使…熟悉）themselves with all the neighbors, so their little girl , Mary, was sent all around the neighborhood to find friends. Soon, Mary carne to Amy's home.
It didn't take much time for Mary to understand Amy. However, she was not put off by Amy's behavior. She knew that she needed to help Amy to change. She told Amy an idea that her teacher had once told the class in her previous school. "Blow a balloon whenever you're angry or upset about something or someone.
At first Amy did not listen to Mary but Hannah tried her best to tell her that it was fun and brought her a pack of balloons.

答案：Paragraph 1:
She remembered what Mary told her and thought she would give it a try. Amy dashed into her room, found the balloons and picked one out with an overwhelming sense of anger. Thinking about her mother's refusal, Amy spared no effort to blow the balloon. Suddenly, the balloon exploded with a bang, making her numb with shock.

Instead of losing her temper all the time, she is now a polite and thoughtful girl with contagious enthusiasm.
