Many people who suffer from the disease use cortisone(可的松)to keep their arthritis under control. Cortisone is cheap and easily available now. but because it once had to be made form animals, cortisone cost so much up to 50 dollars a pill-that only the rich could afford it. Then a brilliant chemist named Percy Lavon Julian figured out how to make cortisone from an unlikely source: soybeans.Percy Julian was born in Montgomery, Alabama, in 1898, a time when most African-American children had no chance of getting a good education. But Julians father and mother were determined that all their children would be educated.It wasnt easy for Percy Julian. When he entered DePauw University in Indiana in 1921, he had to attend special classes, along with his regular college courses, to catch up. By the time the graduated, however, he was at the top of his class. Julians favorite subject was chemistry, and he decided to get his Ph.D. and bee a research scientist. But he found that in the 1920s, very few American universities were willing to admit an African American into their graduate programs. So Julian took a teaching job at Fish University, a back college in Vienna, Austria, because European universities were than more open to African-American students than American universities.On his return to the United States, he headed DePauws chemistry department from 1932 to 1936. During this period, Julian got married. In 1935, he made his first great laboratory breakthrough with he artificial creation of a drug used to treat the eye disease glaua(青光眼). Later he obtained a position at Glidden pany as a lab director in Chicago where he produced the first manmade cortisone. Julians techniques for making cortisone and other drugs from soybeans made these important substances(物质)widely and cheaply available, and earned Julian his reputation as one of the most brilliant research chemists of the 20th century.21. In the past, cortisone made from animals was _. A. not effective enough B. potentially harmful C. too expensive D. difficult to produce22. Which of the following is the correct order of the events about Julian? a. He receive a scholarship from Harvard University b. He went to Vienna for higher education c.

A. constant misunderstandings B. financial difficulties C. mental pressure D. racial discrimination24. Julian was most appreciated for _.

Now, a recent study by Australian researchers may have uncovered the reason. Sightings of dolphins carrying sponges on their noses while hunting fish from the rocky ocean floor have been recorded since the 1980s. Researchers at the University of New South Wales used puter modeling of behavior to explore how long the interesting behavior, believed to provide protection against nose injuries, has gone on. “In animal species that use tools, usually the entire population uses the tools. But in this case, only about five percent of the dolphins living in the bay use the sponges as a tool,” said Anna Kopps at the University of New South Wales Evolution Ecologist Research Centre. The research also shows that nearly all the spongers are female. Scientists believe one single female started sponging in Shark Bay and all her descendants(后代)in the area-now the home of around three thousand dolphinslearned the behavior from their mothers. The sponging has been going to for some hundred eighty years. “Its interesting that the behavior doesnt spread to the entire population and it doesnt go extinct either,” said Kopps. Dolphin descendants are dependent to their mothers for about four years, giving them enough time to observe and learn survival techniques. While male dolphins also learn sponging from their mothers, the study found they learn the technique slowly. “Some males use it but it will be a dead end because dolphins dont learn form the dads,” Kopps said. Despite the seeming usefulness of the technique, the researchers found it may not be a more successful technique than other hunting methods. “Regardless, sponging appears to be just as good as any other hunting technique,” said Kopps. “It turns out the cleverest of the sea world can also be tool-using lovers, spending more time hunting with tools than any non-human animal.” The research is fascinating, but the question of whether tool use is particularly advantageous remains unanswered.28. Why do some dolphins carry sponges while hunting fish according to the study? A. To protect themselves B. To cure nose injuries C. To catch more fish D. To have some fun29. Scientists believe that the sponging behavior _. A. is passed down by mother dolphins B. is now in danger of disappearing C. has existed for about thirty years D. is unique to female dolphins30. It seems that male dolphins _. A. help bring up the young B. are born sponging experts C. teach the young survival skills D. are slower learners of sponging31. Kopps may agree with the idea that _. A. tool use shows high intelligence B. sponging is useful for hunting fish C. sponging will gain popularity in the future D. dolphins are the first sea animals to use toolsD Back in xx an 86-year-old man drove his Buick through a crowded farmers market. Nine people were killed. More than fifty-four people were hurt, fourteen with serious injuries. When he finally stopped, the 86-year-old man got out his car and screamed at people to get out of the way. No alcohol or drugs were found in his system. Apparently, he was just old and confused.This is a frightening accident, and it is not a rare one. There are many examples of elderly drivers driving into swimming pools, houses, storefronts, or worse.In our teenage years we all heard “driving is not a right; its a privilege.” That is still true, and there es an age when driving is no longer aprivilege that can be allowed. After a certain age, eyesight anddementia(痴呆) are very serious concerns. Undoubtedly,these age-related problems effect some older adults driving ability. By the time a person is between eighty-five and ninety years old, his or her driving privilege should be examined.Licensing laws vary greatly from state to state, and its time for a national law on the maximum age limit for driving. The motivation for this law is safety. Another option is to start with laws that ban anyone over the age of eighty-five from driving after sundown, because driving conditions are not as safe as daylight hours. Still another option that may allow elderly drivers to continue driving could be new technology like a voice warning system that cautions drivers on busy streets or at traffic lights. Finally, since there are laws against driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs, shouldnt some prescription drugs also be included? The average age of 85-year-old is undoubtedly taking at least one prescription drug daily.The thought of an 86-year-old driver with failing eyesight running down the road in a two-ton piece of metal is unsettling to us all. Driving at an advanced age is not only challenging for the elderly drivers, its dangerous for the rest of us.32. The first paragraph is written in order to show_. A. the harm of driving at an old age B. the importance of traffic safety C. traffic accidents are on the rise D. many elderly drivers are careless33. The author suggests that there should be new laws against driving _. A. over eighty-five B. between sunset and dawn C. with the help of voice warning systems D. under the influence of prescription drugs34. The underlined word “unsettling” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “_”. A. disappointing B. worrying C. touching D. interesting35. Which if the following would be the best title for the text? A. How to keep old people safe on the road? B. Are drivers well protected by licensing laws? C. Should there be an age limit for elderly drivers? D. Is driving a right or a privilege for an old person?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的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。 After a long, harsh(严酷的)winter, it is time to clean your house thoroughly. When it es to spring-cleaning, you can try green spring-cleaning instead of using harsh chemicals, of course. _36_Here are several tips that can help you achieve your spring-cleaning goal.

Create a mixture of tow spoons of white vinegar with 4.55 liters of water, and the simply spray it on the windows. Dont worry about streaks(痕迹). _38_. _39_ If you have some fresh stains on your carpet, spray soda on small spots while using cornmeal(麦片)on the larger ones. Instead of spending money on those carpet deodorizers, you can sprinkle some baking soda on the carpet and let it sit for 30minutes before you vacuum it(用吸尘器清扫). Green spring-cleaning will save you some money. _40_ Most importantly, you can have great fun and a sense of achievement!A. Nature plays a very important role in spring cleaningB.
