I ran to my mom for 36 but instead of taking me to a doctor, my mom set my hand 37 . After wrapping my hand with several layers of cotton, then soaking it in wine, she put a chopstick into my mouth, and lit the cotton. Heat quickly went through the cotton and began to roast my 38 . The sharp pain made me want to scream, but the chopstick 39 it. All I could do was watch my hand burn - one minute, then two minutes - 40 mom put out the fire. At that time there was no doctor available my mother could bring me to see about my spider bite. For those who study biology, you may have grasped the science 41 my moms cure: heat deactivates (使不活跃) proteins, and a spiders venom, (毒液) is 42 a form of protein. Its 43 how that folk remedy actually includes basic biochemistry, isnt it? But I am a PhD student inbiochemistry at Harvard. I now know that better, less 44 and less risky treatments existed. So I cant help but ask myself why I didnt 45 one at that time.Now I am happy to report that my hand is fine. But this question remains, and I continue to be troubled by the unequal 46 of scientific knowledge throughout the world. Despite the knowledge we have accumulated, we havent been so 47 in deploying (配置) it to where its needed most. We constantly see these problems of poverty, illness, and 48 of resourcespreventing the flow of scientific information. Lifesaving knowledge we take for granted in the modern world is often 49 in underdeveloped regions. While studying at Harvard, I saw 50 scientific knowledge can help others in simple, yet profound ways. The bird flu in the 2000s looked to my village like a spell cast by devils. When I realized that simple hygiene (卫生) practices like 51 different animal species could contain the spread of the disease, and that I could help make this knowledge available to my village, that was my first Aha moment as a budding scientist. Harvard dares us to dream big, to aspire (立志) to change the world. Here on this Commencement Day, we are 52 thinking of grand destinations and big adventures that await us. As for me, I am also thinking of the farmers in my village. My experience here 53 me how important its for researchers to communicate our knowledge to those 54 . Because by using the science we already have, we can probably bring my village and thousands like it into the world you and I take 55 every day. And thats an impact every one of us can make!36. A. medicine B. help C. advice D. decision37. A. in water B. on fire C. in trouble D. on strike38. A. leg B. chest C. hand D. face39. A. preserved B. forbade C. cancelled D. prevented40. A. before B. until C. when D. while41. A. beside B. behind C. after D. within42. A. accurately B. simply C. constantly D. continuously43. A. cool B. right C. absurd D. puzzling44.

Companies such as Canfor and West Fraser Timber Co., the second and third largest lumber (木材) producers in the world, are headquartered in Vancouver. Vancouver is also a major centre for the mining industry. International Trade International trade is a key part for Vancouvers economy. The city has Canadas largest port and is one of North Americas major gateways for Pan-Pacific trade. The Port of Vancouver ranks first in North America in total foreign exports and second on the West Coast in total goods volume. Banking and FinanceThe headquarters for HSBC Canada is located in the Financial District in downtown. Canadas third largest commercial entity (实体), Jim Pattison Group is also based in Vancouver. International Relation Vancouver is a major centre for diplomacy (外交) and foreign relations. Most countries of the world have consulate (领事馆) or general offices in the Central Business District. In fact, many major diplomatic conferences are hosted by the city - including the world famous G7 summit with President Clinton, APEC, and the World Trade Organization. Greenpeace has its world headquarters in the city. Therefore, Vancouver was among the first North American cities to declare itself a Nuclear Weapons Free Zone. Tourism Tourism is a leading industry to Vancouver. The Whistler-Blackcomb Resort is among the most popular skiing resorts in North America, and was the site of the downhill events of the 2010 Winter Olympics. Vancouvers beaches, parks, waterfronts, and mountain backdrops and its multi-cultural character attract more and more tourists.FilmsVancouver was also called Hollywood North, for hosting the production of about ten percent of Hollywoods movies. Many U.S. television and film series are shot exclusively in Vancouver. This has partly been because of the favourable Canadian dollar exchange rate.56. Which of the following description about Vancouver is NOT true according to the passage?A. The Port of Vancouver ranks first in North America in total foreign exports.B. Vancouver is a film production centre and called Hollywood North.C. International forestry conferences and events were held in Vancouver.D. Vancouver is a leading centre for the global agriculture and industry.57. Which of the following organizations or events is not related to Vancouver?A. Jim Pattison Group B. WHOC. Greenpeace D. The 2010 Winter Olympics58. The passage is probably taken from .A. a business magazine B. a geography bookC. a financial newspaper D. an entertainment book B If you intend using humor in your talk to make people smile, you must know how to identify shared experiences and problems. Your humor must be relevant to the audience and should help to show them that you are one of them or that you understand their situation and are in sympathy with their point of view. Depending on whom you are addressing, the problems will be different. If you are talking to a group of managers, you may refer to the disorganized methods of their secretaries; alternatively if you are addressing secretaries, you may want to comment on their disorganized bosses.Here is an example, which I heard at a nurses convention, of a story which works well because the audience all shared the same view of doctors. A man arrives in heaven and. is being shown around by St. Peter. He sees wonderful accommodations, beautiful gardens, sunny weather, and so on. Everyone is very peaceful, polite and friendly until, waiting in a line for lunch, the new arrival is suddenly pushed aside by a man in a white coat, who rushes to the head of the line, grabs his food and stomps (重踏) over to a table by himself. Who is that? the new arrival asked St. Peter. Oh, thats God. came the reply, but sometimes he thinks hes a doctor. If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you and itll be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the uneatable canteen food or the chairmans notorious (臭名昭著的) bad taste in ties. With other audiences you mustnt attempt to cut in with humor as they will resent an outsider making remarks about their canteen or their chairman. You will be on safer ground if you stick to scapegoats (替身) like the Post Office or the telephone system. If you feel awkward being humorous, you must practice so that it becomes more natural. Include a few casual and apparently off-the-cuff (即兴) remarks which you can deliver in a relaxed and unforced manner. Often its the delivery which causes the audience to smile, so speak slowly and remember that a raised eyebrow or an unbelieving look may help to show that you are making a light-hearted remark.Look for the humor. It often comes from the unexpected. A twist on a familiar quote If at first you dont succeed, give up or a play on words or a situation. Search for exaggeration and understatements (轻描淡写). Look at your talk and pick out a few words or sentences which you can turn about and inject with humor.59. To make your humor work, you should .A. take advantage of different kinds of audienceB. make fun of the disorganized peopleC. address different problems to different peopleD. show sympathy for your listeners60. In the eyes of nurses, the joke about doctors implies that they are .A. impolite to new arrivals B. entitled (有资格) to some privilegesC. very conscious of their godlike role D. very busy even during lunch hours61. It can be inferred from the text that public services .A. have benefited many people B. are the focus of public attentionC. are an inappropriate subject for humor D. have often been the laughing stock62. The best title for the text may be .A. Effective ways to use humor B. An appropriate topic matters in humorC. How to add humor to speech D. Casualness makes for natural humor C Why do some people flush when they drink alcohol? This effect is a common reaction to alcohol among East Asians. It affects about 36 percent of Japanese, Chinese and Koreans. For many, even a small amount of alcohol can cause unpleasant effects. Most commonly, their face, neck and sometimes their whole body turn red. People might also feel uncomfortable and sick to their stomach. They might experience a burning sensation (感觉), increased heart rate, shortness of breath and headaches. The cause is a genetic difference that they are born with called an ALDH2 deficiency (缺乏). It prevents their bodies from treating alcohol the way other people do. But the effects might be more serious than just a red face. Researchers warn of a link between this condition and an increased risk of cancer of the esophagus (食道) from drinking alcohol.The more alcohol people with this deficiency drink, the greater their risk is. In Japan and South Korea, for example, many people have the deficiency but still drink heavily. Researchers have found that these drinkers develop a form of esophageal cancer six to ten times more often than those without the deficiency. Esophageal cancer is one of the deadliest cancers. It can be treated when found early, but once it grows the chances of survival drop sharply. The researchers estimate that at least five hundred forty million people have the deficiency, about eight percent of the worlds population.Philip Brooks is a researcher at the National Institute in the United States. He says it is important to educate people about the link between the alcohol flushing effect and esophageal cancer. He says doctors should ask East Asian patients about their experiences with facial flushing after drinking alcohol. Those with a history of it should be advised to limit their alcohol use. They should also be warned that cigarette smoking works with the alcohol in a way that further increases the risk of esophageal cancer.63. The underlined word flush in Paragraph 1 probably means .A. walk unsteadily B. turn red in the faceC. appear unpleasant D. talk more than usual64. The second paragraph is mainly about .A. the cause of the effects of alcohol B. Asians and alcoholC. the advantages of drinking alcohol D. unpleasant effects caused by alcohol65. Esophageal cancer is considered one of the deadliest cancers i
