Mirta had often stared at Marys collection of china plates that were displayed(陈列)so lovingly on a narrow shelf in her dining room. Unfortunately, the mornings hunt for an affordable treasure had been disappointing, and Mirta was quickly losing her patience. She was about to give up when she saw a reasonably priced plate that was simply perfect. She took the plate and headed toward the dealer to pay for it when the plate slipped out of her hands, hit the ground, and broke into half a dozen pieces.“You dont have to say it,” Mirta said to the dealer. “I broke it; I bought it.” Mirta paid the full price and picked up the pieces, which she noticed were still quite pretty, even though they were now not particularly useful for display purposes.The dealer smiled, “I know how you feel. I was rather clumsy myself this morning. I broke two plates while putting these out.” He pointed to a box of broken pieces. An idea suddenly came into Mirtas head as she looked at the pieces in the box. One dish was white with colorful flowers and the other was bright yellow with a red border.“Can I buy these, too?” she asked“You can have them!” the dealer responded in surprise.Mirta gave the pieces to Mary in a decorative bag with a note: “You always taught me to appreciate the beauty in everything. This may look like junk, but we can turn it into a beautiful work of art with our creativity.” She thought Mary might like the gift even more than a perfect plate.25. What did Mirtas actions after she dropped the plate tell us about her?A. She accepted responsibility for her behavior.B. She was tired of choosing a gift.C. She thought of beauty as the most important.D. She did not want to give damaged gifts to others.26. We can learn that in Mirtas opinion_.A. giving gifts is necessaryB. broken things are often beautifulC. junk gifts are better than nothingD. creativity can improve a bad situation27. Which of the following words can best describe Mirta?A. Friendly and curiousB. Strict but generousC. Optimistic and considerateD. Smart but stubborn28. The story intends to show that beauty is_.A. not always worth its price B. always disappearing with timeC. more important than moneyD. not always related to perfectionCAn 11-year-old girl has been named “Americas Top Young Scientist” after she developed a device(仪器)that can quickly find lead(铅) in water. “I was shocked by the number of people in my hometown affected by lead pollution in water and I wanted to do something to change this,” Gitanjali Rao, a seventh grader, told ABC News.It was after seeing her parents test the water in their own home that Rao decided to do something. “The idea just came to me when I saw how difficult it was for my parents to test lead in our water. I thought I had to do something to change it,” Gitanjali said.Gitanjali started developing her idea about five months ago. She reached out to her parents, both engineers, her teachers and experts at local colleges and universities for help. The result is Tethys, a device designed to find out lead in water. Gitanjalis invention allows a sensor(传感器)connected to a mobile app to give an exact, almost immediate result. And it costs no more than a dollar each time!Gitanjali presented Tethys to a group of judges this week in a live petition. She was named the grand prize winner and received a $25,000 prize.“She really blew us out of the water,” said Dr Brian Barnhart, one of the seven judges. “The other nine kids were also so amazing, but she just stood out among them,” he added.Gitanjali plans to continue on her goal “to save lives and make the world a better place.” She plans to spend most of her prize money on her project to make it mercially (商业的)available. She also plans to save some of the $25,000 for college.29. Why was the girl determined to invent the device?A. To put what she had learned into practice.B. To bee Americas top young scientist.C. To improve the method of finding out lead in water.D. To solve the problem of water pollution in her hometown.30. According to paragraph 4, one advantage of Tethys is that_.A. it can remove lead out of waterB. it can be linked to personal putersC. it is more reliable than the present methodD. it is quicker and cheaper than the present method31. The underlined phrase “blew us out of the water” in paragraph 6 probably means “_” .A. won our great respectB. impressed us greatlyC. had great influence upon usD. gave us great encouragement32. What does the girl plan to do with the money?A. Save it for her high school education.B. Further improve Tethys to put it on the market.C. Share it with the other nine top American young scientists.D. Gave it to those people affected by lead pollution in water.DThe search for beauty spans (跨越) centuries and continents. Paintings of Egyptians dating back over 4,000 years show both men and women painting their nails and wearing makeup. On the other side of the globe, the ancient Maya of Central America considered crossed eyes beautiful, and hung little balls between childrens eyes to develop this look. In cultures throughout the world, people have gone to extreme lengths to achieve the goal of beauty.Today, people continue to devote a lot of time and money to their appearance. But what exactly is beauty? Our awareness of it may start at a very early age. In one set of studies, six-month-old babies were shown a series of photographs. The babies spent more time looking at the attractive faces than the unattractive ones.The idea that even babies judge appearance makes perfect sense to many researchers. However, more researchers think that what is considered attractive in one culture might not be in another. Look in most Western fashion magazines, for example, and the women on the pages are thin. But is this the “perfect” body type for women worldwide? Douglas Yu, a biologist from Great Britain, says no.Heres an example: In every culture, ones hairstyle sends a clear message. In the Huli culture of Papua New Guinea, men grow their hair long as a symbol of health and strength. Teenage boys in this culture learn from a young age to style and decorate their hair, a behavior more monly connected with the opposite gender(性别) in many cultures. It is also the men in this culture who are the objects of beauty. For certain festivals and celebrations, men dress up and paint their faces. The more colourful a man is, the more attractive he is considered. For better or worse, beauty plays a role in our lives. Although there do seem to be certain physical qualities considered universally appealing, it is also true that beauty does not always keep to a single, uniform standard. A persons cultural background, for example, may influence what he or she finds attractive in others. Beauty really is, as the saying goes, in the eye of the beholder.33. Why did the ancient Maya hang balls between childrens eyes?A. They thought it would lead to a beautiful face. B. They hoped it would improve their eyesight.C. They wanted the children to stop crying. D. They were playing with the children. 34. What determines the beauty of a Huli man in Papua New Guinea?A. How black his hair is.B. How thin his face is. C. How colourful he is.D. How strong he is. 35. What is the text mainly about?A.The worlds most beautiful people. B. What people think about beauty.C. The history of beauty. D. The role of beauty. 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How to Relax Your MindThere are many techniques, if you wish to learn how to relax your mind.Breathe in, breathe outBy controlling the air taken in or breathed out, you can control your anger and, thus, your stress.
