She is one of the handful female chief engineers in the Country. The environment of an oil tanker is a tough one to work in and Juliana is one of the toughest chief engineers the company has.

When asked the same question to Juliana, she said, “I think many things should be done not with force but with intelligence. Many men think that women do not have the ability, but it is up to the women to prove these men wrong. And it is very much possible if there is enough effort”.

She has been sailing as a chief engineer for last 2 years and she loves every bit of her job.  She has sailed for as long as 45 days continuously from Brazil to China and she is very happy with the career choice she has made.

But what she loves most is the satisfaction she gets from doing something adventurous and unique.

CDoes Music Make You Run Faster?An expert on the effects of music on exercise, Dr. Costas Karageorghis, claims that listening to music while running can raise performance by up to 15%. To put this theory to the test, I took part in a special half marathon, which had groups of musicians playing at various points along the route. As I was at the start, a singer sang an inspiring song for us. It may explain why I got off to a good start. But apart from the song at the start, I can hardly remember the music played along the course. “Outstanding runners”, says Karageorghis, "tend to focus on themselves when they are running. ”According to him, most other runners look for encouragement and distraction from what is going on around them. It is true. Then what did other runners make of the music? Adam Bull usually runs marathons with no music and little crowd support. “The music here has been great for my performance. With the cheerful bands, you find yourself running to the beat, which helps. "The only person I found who was less than happy with the music was Lois Lloyd. "I found the music wasn't loud enough, so I ran with an MP 3 player. "she said. “I need my music all the time. ”Karageorghis is not surprised when I tell him.  “There are many advantages to using your own player, rather than relying on the music on the course, ”he says. “It gives you a constant encouragement, and you can change the playlist to your taste. "One runner told me there was a direct connection between the quality of the music on the course and how much it helped. But quality, of course, is based on personal opinions. Of course, the music was not only there to help runners break their personal bests, but to provide a sense of occasion, draw out the crowds and create a festival atmosphere. Along with some spring sunshine, it certainly achieved that. 28. Why did the author take part in a special half marathon?A. To win a prize. B. To test a theory. C. To enjoy the music. D. To do some exercise. 29. According to the passage, Dr. Costas Karageorghis may believe thatA. music brings more benefits to outstanding runners B. music can help improve people's performance in runningC. music with high quality helps much in running in half marathon D. music on the course works better than that in runners' own players 30. What is the author's attitude to the function of music to running?A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Critical. D. Uncertain.DScientists and ordinary people alike have long wondered why mosquitoes are more attracted to some people than others. Growing evidence suggests that a person's unique odor（气味）plays a large part in it, with several odorants known as mosquitoattractants. Now, the smell of carboxylic acids（羧酸）can be added to that list, researchers at Rockefeller University reported. "Everybody asks why some people are more attractive to mosquitoes than others. "Leslie Vosshall, a study coauthor and neurobiologist says. So Vosshall and her colleagues gathered 64 volunteers and asked each of them to wear nylon stockings around their arms for six hours to collect their unique skin odor. They then placed two stockings into separate containers side by side, and released mosquitoes to see which stocking they moved toward. After pitting the different stockings with each other, the team came out with a winner that was about 100 times more attractive than the last place stocking. The scientists repeated these experiments over three years with the same volunteers, finding that the volunteer's attractiveness rating remained stable over time despite changes in diet or skin product usage. Then the scientists performed a chemical analysis on the stockings. Sure enough, they found that the stockings that were highly attractive to mosquitoes had high levels of carboxylic acids. “If you have high levels of this stuff on your skin, you're going to be the one at the picnic getting all the bites, ”says Vosshall. The scientists tried genetically changing the insects to reduce their sensitivity to the acids. However, this did not affect the mosquitoes' preferences. “I think this shows the fact that mosquitoes are choosing who to bite based on“It also shows outstandingseveral odors from our skin, ”Vosshall says. performance in the olfactory （嗅觉的） system of the mosquito： when one receiver is disturbed, the relevant odor can still be found by a different receiver. "Unfortunately, it's difficult to change the production of carboxylic acids or other odorants without negatively affecting skin health, Vosshall says. And it is unlikely that any single product could change a person's skin odor to enable them to avoid mosquitoes entirely. “Mosquitoes have many other plans to be able to find us and bite us. ”she says. 31. What does the underlined word “pitting" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Mixing. B. Exchanging. C. Comparing. D. Covering. 32. What can we learn from the passage?A. People's attractiveness changes if they use different skin products. B. Mosquitoes have limited receivers to odors that are easily disturbed. C. People with high levels of carboxylic acids are more attractive to mosquitoes. D. Mosquitoes' preferences can be changed if their sensitivity to the acids is reduced. 33. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Carboxylic acids are harmful to skin health. B. Mosquitoes prefer people who don't use skin product. C. People have many plans to stay away from mosquitoes. D. Products changing skin odor can hardly prevent mosquitoes. 34. Which would be the best title for this passage?A. Why are some people more attractive to mosquitoes than others?B. What can people do to protect themselves from mosquitoes?C. When are mosquitoes most sensitive to the acids?D. How do mosquitoes impact people's skin health?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分, 共10分）根据短文内容, 从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。For many parents, it is not easy to ask for information from children about what they did at school all day.    35   But other times, they keep silence or respond with a single word. It doesn't have to be so tough. With the right strategies, even the most silent child will open up.   36Don't ask “How was your day?”. This question often leads to one-word answers or a shrug. For many children, the question is too general and they don't want to think about how to answer it with specifics. Share your own experiences. 37  Don't shy away from sharing your challenging experiences.  It will get the conversation started and help children understand their own emotions. Labeling that you are also having a stressful experience is a good chance to show them how they might do that. 38      Ask when your child feels disappointed, frustrated or sad, too. Asking children to share negative as well as positive emotions can help to surface problems in a more routine, less stressful way. Avoid distractions. Choose a time to talk when you'll be able to listen to your child.    39   Children are less likely to reply with thoughtful answers when you're not paying full attention. Full focus will help you ask follow-up questions, which are important to show interest. A. Don't rush to know everything. B. Sometimes, kids are happy to chat. C. Don't expect only positive experiences. D. Here's how to get them to tell you about their day. E. Put your phone down and avoid doing other chores. F. One way is to ask children to retell what they learned in school. G.  Children may follow your lead if you share your own highlights and lowlights. 第三部分：书面表达（共两节, 32分）第一节：阅读表达（共4小题；第40、41题各2分, 第42题3分, 第43 题5分, 共12分）。阅读下面短文, 根据文章内容及题目要求回答问题。Is it the future worrying me?
