DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Mr. Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called “genes(基因)” in our body. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that those small parts are really messages. Theyre written in the DNA with a special language.In 1961, another two scientists found the first “word”that could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell (细胞) to build its parts. So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word”means, we can help to save people from several illnesses. So the more we understand. The more doctors will be able to do.Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more “words”and find out more information, we will use it in the wrong way, just to make people more attractive(有吸引力的) , or stop sick people getting jobs.（1）When did Mr. Mendel discover why we look the same as other people in our family?A .

Many Chinese people have cars now, but most Chinese people still like to ride bikes. Do you know why?We all know that the bike cant go quickly, but its easy for people to buy and ride it. As for the car, it needs too much money.Most Americans live far from the center of cities or their working places. So they need cars to go shopping or go to work every day. Most Chinese people live near their working places, so they dont need cars to go to work. And its good for the environment(环境) if people stop driving. So there is a day called “No-Car Day” on September 22nd every year.For me, I like to go to school by bike. It is easy and healthy.（1）Do most Chinese people need to drive cars?（2）When is “No-Car Day” every year?（3）What two things does the passage(文章) talk about?（4）Why do most Americans need cars to go shopping or go to work every day?七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)18. （5分）假如你是Dave，给你的朋友Jack写便条，请他把你房间的四样东西给你带来，这些东西及位置如下：在沙发上的钥匙；在书柜上的书；在椅子下的棒球,在抽屉里的光盘。Dear Jack ,第 12 页 共 12 页参考答案一、 单选题 (共10题；共20分)1-1、2-1、3-1、4-1、5-1、6-1、7-1、8-1、9-1、10-1、二、 完形填空 (共1题；共10分)11-1、三、 阅读理解 (共3题；共22分)12-1、12-2、12-3、12-4、13-1、13-2、13-3、13-4、14-1、14-2、14-3、四、 用单词的正确形式完成句子 (共1题；共10分)15-1、15-2、15-3、15-4、15-5、15-6、15-7、15-8、15-9、15-10、五、 单词填空 (共1题；共1分)16-1、六、 短文阅读 (共1题；共20分)17-1、17-2、17-3、17-4、七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)18-1、
