Whatever our differences as human beings are, we all think we’re more like the rest of the animal world than we realize. It is said that we share 40 per cent of our genetic（遺傳的）structure with the simple worm.

But that fact has helped Sir John Sulston win the 2002 Nobel Prize for Medicine. Sir John is the founder of the Sanger Institute in Cambridge, which was set up in 1992 to get further understanding of the human genome（染色體組）.

To help them do this, they turned to the worm. The nematode（線蟲類的）worm is one of the earliest creatures on planet earth. It is less than one millimeter long, completely transparent and spends its entire life digging holes through sand. But it still has lots to say about human life, and what can be done to make it better.

What the worm told Sir John and his colleagues were that each of cells in the human body is programmed like a computer. They grow, develop and die according to a set of instructions that are coded in our genetic make-up.

Many of the diseases that humans suffer from happen when these instructions go wrong or are not obeyed. When the cell refuses to die but carries on growing instead, this leads to cancer. Heart attacks and diseases like AIDS cause more cell deaths than normal, increasing the damage they do to the body. Sir John was the first scientist to prove the existence of programmed cell death.

1.Sir John Sulston got a Nobel Prize for Medicine because he has _____________.

A. found that human beings are similar to the worn

B.got the fact we share 40 per cent of our genetic structure with the simple worm

C.found the computer which controls each of the cells in the human body

D.proved that cell death is programmed

2.People might be seriously ill if the cells in their bodies _____________.

A.grow without being instructed

B.die regularly

C.fail to follow people’s instructions

D.develop in the human body

3.The underlined word “they”(Paragraph 5) refers to _____________.

A.cell deaths　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B.diseases

C.instructions　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　   D.cells

4.What is the subject discussed in the text?

A.The theory of programmed cell deaths.

B.A great scientist—Sir John Sulston.

C.The programmed human life.

D.Dangerous diseases.

     Our house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore.
We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to out-patients at the clinic.
     One summer evening as I was fixing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly
awful looking man-no taller than my eight-year-old son-I thought as I stared at the shriveled (皺縮的) body.
But the shocking thing was his face-twisted from swelling.
     He told me he'd been hunting for a room since noon but with no success." I guess it's my face…, but my
doctor says with a few more treatments …"
     I told him we would find him a bed. When I had finished the dishes, he told me he fished for a living to
support his daughter, her five children, and her husband, who was hopelessly disabled from a back injury.
He didn't tell it by way of complaint; in fact, every other sentence began with a thanks to God for a blessing.
He was grateful that no pain accompanied his disease, which was apparently a form of skin cancer.
      The next morning before he left for his bus, he asked if he could come back and stay the next time he
had a treatment. I told him he was welcome to come again.
     In the years he came to stay overnight with us, there was never a time that he did not bring us fish or
oysters or vegetables from his garden.
     When I received these little gifts, I often thought of a comment our next-door neighbor made after he left
that first morning." Did you keep that awful looking man last night? I turned him away. You can lose roomers
by accommodating such people!"
     Maybe we did lose roomers once or twice. But oh! If only they could have known him, perhaps their
illnesses would have been easier to bear. I know our family always will be grateful to have known him; from
him we learned what it was to accept the bad without complaint and the good with gratitude.
1. The first time I met the man, _____.
A. I felt pity for his look
B. he frightened my kid
C. he was in need of something to eat
D. he was looking for a place to stay overnight
2. The next-door neighbor refused the man because _____.
A. he might lose roomers
B. the man was poor
C. he had no spare room
D. the man didn't bring him gifts
3. Which of the following is NOT true about the man?
A. He developed skin cancer.
B. He fished to support a large family.
C. God helped him to get over his disease.
D. He didn't complain about his sufferings.
4. What attitude did the man have toward life?
A. Grateful.
B. Confident.
C. Regretful.
D. Passive.
5. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. Never judge a book by its cover
B. Give others a hand
C. Be the architect of life
D. Accept good and bad with gratitude

     "Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,"  said David
Belle, the founder of parkour (跑酷)．
     Do you love running? It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. But what if making your
morning jog a creative one? Like jumping from walls and over gaps, and ground rolls? Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale? Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several
blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just because of Bond's wonderful performances that the sport has
become popular worldwide.
     Yes, that's parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as
possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is
considered an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up
walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.
     Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more
than that.
     Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy (理念) behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover
said, "I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything."
     Another philosophy we've learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time,
anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself. It is only a state of mind. It is when
you trust yourself that you earn energy.
1. Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of _____.
A. its founder, David Belle
B. the film, Casino Royale

閱讀理解。
     Our "Mommy and Me" time began two years ago. My next-door neighbor and fellow mother, Christie,
and I were out in our front yards, watching seven children of age 6 and under ride their bikes up and down.
"I wish I could take one of my children out alone," said Christie.
     Then we worked out a plan: When Christie takes one of her children out, I'll watch her other three. And
when she watches two of mine, I'll take someone out.
     The children were extremely quick to accept the idea of "Mommy and Me" time. Christie's daughter,
McKenzie, went first. When she returned, the other children showered her with tons of questions. McKenzie
was smiling broadly. Christie looked refreshed and happy. "She's like a different child when there's no one
else around," Christie shared with me quickly. With her mother all to herself, McKenzie didn't have to make
an effort to gain attention.
     Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie, I also discovered something different in each of my
children during our alone times. For example, I am always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close
to me, holds my hand frequently. My stuttering (口吃的) son, Tom, doesn't stutter once during our activities
since he doesn't have to struggle for a chance to speak. And the other son, Sam, who's always a follower
when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.
     The "Mommy and Me" time allows us to be simply alone and away with each child-talking, sharing, and
laughing, which has been the biggest gain. Every child deserves (應(yīng)得到) to be an only child at least once in
a while.
1. What is the text mainly about?
A. The experience of the only child being with mother.
B. The advantage of spending time with one child at a time.
C. The happy life of two families.
D. The basic needs of children.
2. Right after McKenzie came back, the other children were _____.
A. happy
B. curious
C. regretful
D. friendly
3. What is one of the changes the author finds in her children?
A. The daughter acts like a leader.
B. Sam holds her hand more often.
C. The boys become better followers.
D. Tom has less difficulty in speaking.
4. The author seems to believe that _____.
A. having brothers and sisters is fun
B. it's tiring to look after three children
C. every child needs parents' full attention
D. parents should watch others' children
