7、i and the Legend of the Ten Rings.C.West Side Story,D.The Matrix 4.B Josh Morrison, 17, dreamed of raising $100,000 to build a home for a low-income family. After years of hard work, his dream has come true. The house is now in the early stages of building. Six years ago, Josh and his dad went into

8、the Habitat for Humanity ReStore, a home improvement store and donation center run by the nonprofit organization. They were there to buy a sink. Josh, then 11, also noticed a collection of pennies. I instantly felt the urge to help out with that, he said. Josh set a fund-raising deadline of four yea

9、rs. Many people doubted whether he could reach his goal of $100,000, but it didnt shake his faith. He devoted his time to raising money at his school and other nearby schools. He collected money from neighbours, got publicity from local newspapers, and placed cans in stores so that people could dona

10、te extra change. Joshs fund-raising efforts began to produce results. Still, there were challenges. Four months before his deadline, he was $ 30,000 short. He decided to hold a Family Fun Fair and Spaghetti Dinner event in Uxbridge, which is in the province of Ontario. The event raised $ 19,000. I d

11、idnt care how long it took me, said Josh. I would raise $100,000. With three weeks left, a company called Joshs house offered to donate $18,000. Eventually, Josh reached a total of $134,000 before the deadline. The momentum just kept going, and we decided to do more, he said. Joshs Penny House is be

12、ing built by Habitat for Humanity in the city of Oshawa, along with 24 new town houses. Josh has helped with some of the construction, as have other volunteers. He will choose the family that moves into the unit. Next year, the 17-year-old kid will head to college in British Columbia, Canadas wester

13、nmost province. As an 11-year-old kid when starting fundraising, Josh was able to send a powerful message across the world.

16、elationship on the back burner to concentrate on their children, but a new study shows that when spouses(配偶) love each other, their children stay in school longer and marry later in life. Research about how the affection between parents shapes their childrens long-term life outcomes is rare because

17、the data demands are high. This study uses unique data from families in Nepal to provide new evidence. The study, co-authored by researchers at the University of Michigan and McGill University in Quebec, was published in the journal Demography. In this study, we see that parents emotional connection

18、 to each other affects child growth so much that it shapes their childrens future, said co-author and U-M Institute for Social Research researcher William Axinn. The fact that we found these kinds of things in Nepal moves us to step closer to evidence that these things are universal. The study uses

19、data from the Chitwan Valley Family Study in Nepal. The survey was launched in 1995, and collected information from 151 neighborhoods in the Western Chitwan Valley. Married couples were interviewed at the same time but separately, and were asked to assess the level of affection they had for their pa

20、rtner. The spouses answered How much do you love your husband/wife, very much, some, a little, or not at all? The researchers then followed the children of these parents for 12 years to document their education and marital (婚姻的) behavior. They found that the children of the parents who reported they

21、 loved each other either some or very much stayed in school longer and married later. Family isnt just another institution. Its not like a school. It is this place where we also have emotions and feelings, said lead author Sarah Brauner-Otto, director of the Centre on Population Dynamics at McGill U

22、niversity. The researchers say that their next important question will be to identify why parental love impacts children in this way.1.Why is the research rarely done about the influence of parents love on childrens lives?A.Because few scientists show passion.B.Because the data are demanding.C.Becau

23、se evidence is hard to collect.D.Because parents sometimes dont tell the truth.2.What does the underlined word universal in the third paragraph mean?A.Reasonable.B.Scientific.C.Worldwide.D.Acceptable.3.What can be learned about the study from Paragraph 4?A.It started in the 19th century.B.It used in

24、formation from 151 western countries.C.Couples were interviewed together.D.Couples needed to make an assessment of their closeness degree.4.Which of the following will Sarah Brauner-Otto agree with?A.Family is like a school.B.Family really matters.C.Home is the best place.D.All happy families are al

25、ike.D Whether paired with a bottle of nice red wine or a burger, cheese can be a delicious treat. But it is not perhaps, the ideal material to use in printing-unless you are a team of nutritional scientists. One group of researchers used 3D printing to create a cheese. And the cheese could provide a

26、 valuable insight for engineers who are still developing materials for 3D printing. A team from the school of food and nutritional sciences at University College Cork (UCC) conducted a series of tests evaluating the 3D-printed cheese. 3D printing materials need to be fluid (液态) enough to flow but al

27、so capable of setting into a definite shape or structure. After melting the cheese at 75C (167F) for 12 minutes, the UCC team then ran it through a modified commercial 3D printer. The machine, which usually prints with plastic, was fitted with a syringe (注射器) to allow it to print with the melted che

28、ese. The UCC team used several techniques to examine the effects of the 3D printing process on their cheese. They compared the 3D-printed results to processed cheese that had been melted and then cooled, as well as another sample that was left untouched. Cheese that was 3D printed was 45% to 49% sof

29、ter than the processed cheese, the researchers said. They also discovered that 3D-printed cheese was a little darker in colour and more fluid when melted, though it melted at about the same temperature as processed cheese.Dr Kelly and his colleagues are now testing other types of dairy products whic

30、h can be 3D-printed. Dr Kelly said, We are using mixtures of milk proteins at present to build a product, perhaps a high-protein snack, and designing recipes which might work best for a 3D printer.1.What problems are the engineers facing in 3D printing cheese?A.They dont have proper material.B.They

31、cant find a bottle of nice red wine or a burger.C.They cant make the cheese very delicious.D.They know much less than nutritional scientists.2.How did the researchers use the 3D printer to make cheese?A.They raisied the temperature to 75.B.They added a syringe to the printer.C.They bought some chees

32、e to paint it.D.They evaluated the 3D-printed cheese.3.What is the advantage of the 3D-printed cheese?A.It melts more easily. B. It tastes more delicious.C. It costs less money. D. It is much softer.4.What will Dr Kelly and his colleagues do next according to the last paragraph?A.Publish a report on

33、 their research.B.Invent a new 3D printer.C.3D print more milk food.D.Make more cheese with their machine.第二节 （共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分） In the most basic sense, self-regulation(自我调节) involves controlling ones behavior and thoughts in pursuit(追求) of long-term goals. Generally, people who are good at sel

34、f-regulation tend to see the good in others and view challenges as opportunities.
