In a college newspaper.BDear Alfred, I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150+ at 17, Im anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADIID(注意力缺陷多动障碍). Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.However, when something did interest me, I could bee absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the puter, and built my first website. Moreover, I pleted the senior course of puter Basics, plus five relevant pre-college courses.While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to college after high school, but couldnt. So, I was killing my time at home until June xx when I discovered the online puter courses of your training center.Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics. Currently, Im learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your video. This has given me a purpose.Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public, I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the jobData Analystthis month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my petitors.Thank you. Youve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I feel good about myself because Im doing something, not because someone told me I was doing good. I feel whole.This is why youre saving my life.Yours,Tanis25.Why didnt Tanis go to college after high school?A. She had learned enough about puter scienceB. She had more difficulty keeping focusedC. She preferred taking online coursesD. She was too slow to learn26.As for the working environment, Tains prefers_.A. peting against othersB. staying with ADHD studentsC. working by herselfD. dealing with the public27.Tanis wrote this letter in order to_.A. explain why she was interested in the puterB. share the ideas she had for her profession C .show how grateful she was to the centerD. describe the courses she had taken so farCThe oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny ballet dancer. “Im an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up.”On the station, the ordinary bees strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, its just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale (呼气) has a tendency to form an invisible cloud around you head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat,”Your inner ear thinks yourre falling . Meanwhile your eyes are telling you youre standing straight. That can be annoyingthats why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days truly terrible days for some astronauts brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. Thats why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronauts healthy. NASA is worried about two things: recovery time once astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.28.What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?A. Deciding on a proper sleep positionB. Choosing a fortable sleeping bagC. Seeking a way to fall asleep quicklyD. Finding a right time to go to sleep.29.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when _.A. they watch a movie while pedaling B. they exercise in one place for a long timeC. they use microputers without a stopD. they circle around on their bikes30.Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because _.A. their senses stop workingB. they have to stand up straightC. they float out of their seats unexpectedlyD. their brains receive contradictory messages31.One of the NASAs major concerns about astronauts is _.A. whether they are able to go back to the stationB. whether they can recover after returning homeC. how they can remain healthy for long in spaceD. how much exercise they do on the stationD Science has a lot of uses. It can uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up. Indeed science is so good at what it does that theres always a temptation(诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful. David Brooks, author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character,and Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.Brooks gained fame for several books. His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books. It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics. The book focuses on big questions: What has science revealed about human nature? What are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others arent?To answer these questions, Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines（学科）. Considering this, you might expect the book to be a dry recitation of facts. But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox(非常规的), and perhaps unfortunate, way. Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the readers attention. So as Harold and Erica, the hero and heroine in his story, live through childhood, we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction. Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.On the whole, Brookss story is acceptable if uninspired. As one would expect, his writing is mostly clear and, to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed, for instance, the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own. While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere. These problems partly involve Brookss attempt to translate his tale into science.32.The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to_.A. remind the reader of the importance of scienceB. demonstrate the value of Brookss new bookC. illustrate where science can be appliedD. explain why many writers use science in their works33.According to the author, which of the following could be a strength of the book?A. Its clear writing.B. Its memorable characters.C. Its strong basis.D. Its convincing points.34.What is the authors general attitude towards the book?A. Contradictory.B. Supportive.C . Cautious.D. Critical.35.What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?A. Brookss life experience.B. Problems with the book.C. Brookss translation skills.D. Death of the characters.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。What if you could have your whole backpack at the touch of your fingertips?
