Many experts（专家） use it to tell people its important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. However, a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food.When we say some people sweet, we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps this word can help us learn more about peoples feelings and acts. said Brian Meier, a scientist from the study team. Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is to find whether we can know someones character and behavior depending on their taste.In one of their experiments, college students were asked questions about their character- whether, for example, they were soft-hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips werent. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in the hospital and so on.The result of the experiments is that peoples helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream.（1）The underlined word it in the sentence Many experts use it to tell people its important to have a good eating habit. refers to_.A . the sweet foodB . the English sayingC . the American teamD . the eating habit（2）According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people_.A . overweightB . excitedC . relaxedD . friendly（3）The scientists found that the people who preferred_ were less helpful.A . chipsB . chocolateC . ice-creamD . cookies（4）It can be learnt from the passage that_.A . scientists asked college students questions about their futureB . scientists told college students not to eat sweet foodC . people with a sweet tooth are more willing to help othersD . peoples character has nothing to do with their taste13. （10分） Its Jims birthday today.

Now, aged 79, the very same Gurdon shared the 2012 Nobel Prize in Medicine with Japanese stem cell (干细胞) researcher Shinya Yamanaka.Like so many scientists, Gurdon shows us where the power of curiosity and perseverance （坚持） can lead.At the age of 15 in 1948, Gurdon ranked last out of the 250 boys at his high school in biology and every other science subject. Gurdons high school science teacher even said that his dream of becoming a scientist was quite ridiculous.In spite of his teachers criticisms, Gurdon followed his curiosity and kept working hard. He went to the laboratory earlier and left later than anyone else. He experienced thousands of failures.I believe that we will, in the end, understand everything about how cells actually work. Gurdon said.In 1962, Gurdon took a sell from an adult frog and moved its genetic （基因的） information i nto an egg cell. The egg cell then grown into a clone of the adult frog. This technique later helped to create Dolly the sheep in 1996, the first cloned mammal in the world.In 2006, Gurdons work was developed by Yamanaka to show that a sample (样本) of a persons skin can be used to create stem cells. Using the technique, doctors can repair a patients heart after a heart attack.Luck prefers the prepared mind. Gurdon told the Nobel Prize organization.
