26、0 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 20 分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A I have this old clock that belonged to my mom.My dad gave it to me years ago after mom passed away.I have mixed feelings about keeping the clock.I love it because it was my moms,but it also holds some bad memories.You see,it chime

27、s(打钟报时).It counts out the hour and rings once on the half hour.Or at least it used to.Now you never know what number it will ring.When my mother was at home dying from cancer,she asked for the clock to be unplugged(拔去插头等).Hearing the hours count down really angered and frightened her.Mom passed away

28、.I decided I wanted to get the clock fixed so I could remember the good hours we had with her.I took it to a local clock shop the other day.“I know this has no particular value as a clock,but it was my moms and I need to get it fixed,”I said to the shop owner.I went on to describe the problem.“We ge

29、t a lot of these in,”he told me.“Heres what I do.We remove the clock works(机件)and replace it with a battery-operated movement(机芯)that chimes electronically,”he told me.“You cant fix this?”“No,we dont have the time nor the parts.”I thanked him and went home.I called a few other places and was told th

30、e same thing.“How incredibly sad,”I told the last one disappointedly.We copy the original instead of creating something new.We duplicate(复制);we dont originate(发明).How incredibly sad that we have become a society that replaces craftsmanship(手艺)with convenience and easy fixes.Sadly,this is also our at

31、titude toward life itself.Each of us is an original,one of a kind.But we find it so much easier to copy anothers style than to develop our own.We are wannabes(崇拜别人的人)rather than“hey-world-look-at-me”s.We fail to see the real value in who we are,so we spend our lives trying to be someone else.56.The

32、author decided to get the clock fixed because it _.A.was a really old and valuable clock B.left the author with mixed feelings C.was the only thing that his mother had left him D.brought him memories of being with his mother 57.What did the clock shop owners tell the author?A.It would cost a lot to

33、repair the clock.B.They could only make the clock electronic.C.The parts that the clock needed were electronic.D.They had never repaired a clock like this before.58.The purpose of the article is to criticize _.A.the irresponsible clock shop owners B.people who do not value things with a history C.pe

34、ople who do not have a creative attitude toward life D.peoples ignorance(无知)of traditional craftsmanship B Unlike chemists and physicists,who usually do their experiments using machines,biologists and medical researchers have to use living things like rats.But there are three Nobel prize-winning sci

35、entists who actually chose to experiment on themselves all in the name of science,reported The Telegraph.Werner Forssmann(Nobel prize winner in 1956)Forssmann was a German scientist.He studied how to put a pipe inside the heart to measure the pressure inside and decide whether a patient needs surger

36、y(手术).Experiments had been done on horses before,so he wanted to try with human patients.But it was not permitted because the experiment was considered too dangerous.Not giving up,Forssmann decided to experiment on himself.He anaesthetized(麻醉)his own arm and made a cut,putting the pipe 30 centimeter

37、s into his vein(血管).He then climbed two floors to the X-ray room before pushing the pipe all the way into his heart.Barry Marshall(Nobel prize winner in 2005)Most doctors in the mid-20th century believed that gastritis was down to stress,spicy food or an unusually large amount of stomach acid(胃酸).Bu

38、t in 1979 an Australian scientist named Robin Warren found that the disease might be related to a bacteria(细菌)called Helicobacter pylori.So he teamed up with his colleague,Barry Marshall,to continue the study.When their request to experiment on patients was denied,bravely drank some of the bacteria.

39、Five days later,he lost his appetite and soon was vomiting(呕吐)each morning he indeed had gastritis.Ralph Steinman(Nobel prize winner in 2011)This Canadian scientist discovered a new type of immune system cell(免疫细胞)called the dendritic cell.He believed that it had the ability to fight against cancer.

40、Steinman knew he couldnt yet use his method to treat patients.So in 2007,when doctors told him that he had cancer and that it was unlikely for him to live longer than a year,he saw an opportunity.With the help of his colleagues,he gave himself three different vaccines(疫苗)based on his research and a

41、total of eight experimental therapies(疗法).Even though Steinman eventually died from his cancer,he lived four and a half years,much longer than doctors had said he would.59.The main purpose of the article is to _.A.list some famous Nobel prize winners.B.introduce a few Nobel prize winners who did exp

42、eriments on themselves.C.describe some dangerous experiments that Nobel prize-winners did on themselves.D.list some difficulties that scientists go through to make important discoveries in biology.60.Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A.Forssmanns experiment ended in failure.B.F

43、orssmann had the pipe pushed all the way into his heart.C.Barry Marshall succeeded by drinking some Helicobacter pylori.D.Barry Marshall was given full responsibility for the study on gastritis at first.61.The underlined word“gastritis”in Paragraph 5 probably means _.A.a kind of stomach disease B.a

44、kind of immune cell C.a new type of therapy D.a type of leg cancer 62.From the text,we can conclude that Ralph Steinman _.A.had his request to experiment on patients denied B.believed that cancer comes from stress and spicy food C.discovered a new type of cancer cell called the dendritic cell D.trie

45、d different therapies containing the dendritic cell on himself C How do people traditionally manufacture(制造)things?They usually start with a sheet of metal,wood or other material and cut,drill(钻)and shave it to create a desired shape.Sometimes,they use a mold(模具)made of metal or sand,pour liquid pla

46、stic or metal into it and let it cool to create a solid part.Now,a completely different method is gaining popularity.On Oct.9,2013,kicked off its new exhibition,3-D:Printing the Future,with over 600 3-D printed objects on display,including space probes(探测器),toy dolls and even human organs basically

47、any product you can think of,reported Live Science.You might find it hard to believe that an object can actually be“printed out”like a picture.But it is not that hard to understand how it works.Just as a traditional printer sprays(喷洒)ink onto paper line by line,modern 3-D printers spread material on

48、to a surface layer by layer,from the bottom to the top,gradually building up a shape.Instead of ink,the materials the 3-D printer uses are mainly plastic,resin(树脂)and certain metals.The thinner each layer is from a millimeter to less than the width of a hair the smoother and finer the object will be

49、.And objects always come out in one piece,sparing you the trouble of putting different parts together afterward.For example,10 years ago a desktop 3-D printer might have cost 20,000(200,000 yuan),while now it costs only about 1,000,according to the BBC.In fact,3-D printers have been around for some

50、time,but until recently they hadnt been very popular since few people could afford them.Last year,though,saw a big decrease in the price of 3-D printers.However,as 3-D printing technology becomes more commonplace,it may trigger certain problems.One of them is piracy(盗版).“Once you can download a coff
