In the summer before I entered middle school, I read the book They Cage the

Animals at Night. It’s

a story

about Jennings,

a boy living

in various

orphanages

(

孤儿院

)

with

only

his

stuffed

animal

(< /p>

毛绒玩具

)

,

Doggie,

for

companionship.

It’s

a fascinating book, but little did I know how it would 16 my life and the lives of

others.

One day, as I looked across my room at the pile of stuffed animals, a(n) 17

came to me. I would 18 stuffed animals for children like Jennings. 19, I contacted

agencies

that

support

those

children

and

they

said

the

stuffed

animals

would

certainly 20

children’s spirits.

I

named

my

project

“Cuddle

Buddies”.

I

wrote

articles

for

the

local and school newspapers, 21 don

ations of the “buddies” –

stuffed animals. My phone 22 ringing; schools, families, and toy

factories all wanted

to

help. Munch to my 23, by the

second week my

living

room

Whenever

Mom

“buddies”

kids

eyes

When

asked

to

choose

Simon

soon

after was sleeping through the night. I never dreamed Cuddle Buddies

would 29 this

way.

Upon graduation from high school, I designed a website,

response

was

31.

More

and

Cuddle Buddies 32 were established across the nation.

This has been a great experience.

I’ve learned how to follow through on an

idea and how to 33 impact a life. I will go to college with these 34 in mind and

continue my work with Cuddle Buddies, even when I 35 a whole new set of exciting

An unpleasant smell floated into my nose as the bowl of fried stinky tofu (

臭

豆腐

)

settled

onto

my

grandmother

’s

dinner

table.

I

immediately

sat

back.

The

smell

ruined my appetite, and I pushed the dish away.

“It’s supposed to stink. Just give it a try!” my grandmother said.

Holding my breath,

I unwillingly

took a bite.

To my

surprise, the

tofu beneath

the fried skin was warm, soft, and mouthwatering. Since then, whenever I visited

my grandmother’s house, I would rush to the kitchen for the stinky tofu with

excitement.

Thus,

stinky

tofu

became

more

than

a

household

tradition.

It

became

my

favorite dish.

Along with the stinky tofu, I would meet my Uncle Chan on every visit. As an

immature boy, I never understood my uncle’s condition of Down syndrome (唐氏综

合征

).

He was an unfriendly and

terrible

creature in my eyes.

He constantly walked

around

the

house,

talking

to

himself.

Whenever

he

was

within

view,

I

would

run

away

in fear.

However, one day, my view of my uncle suddenly changed. I was just getting out

of my bed when I heard soft steps approaching. It was my uncle. My muscles froze.

He slowly sat next to me and touched my face gently, as a mother would stroke (

抚

摸

)

a

baby.

A

wide

smile

emerged

from

his

blank

expressions.

How

beautiful

his

smile

was!

I

could

not

help

but

smile

back.

My

fear

disappeared

gradually,

and

my

muscles

relaxed. For the first time, I could see softness and warmth in his eyes.

My

uncle

very

much

resembles

stinky

tofu.

Stinky

tofu

smells

unpleasant

on

the

outside, yet feels warm and s

oft on the inside. Like stinky tofu, my uncle’s Down

syndrome made me keep my distance at first. Yet, I learned that deep inside, he is

harmless and has a loving nature.

Some people tend to look down upon disabled people and regard them as unfit

for a regular life. As I was unable to see through the outer surface of the tofu,

these

people

are

unable

to

see

through

the

surface

of

prejudice

(

偏见

).

As

a

result,

they judge the disabled with one glance.

The

outside

and

inside

of

the

stinky

tofu

exist

as

two

extremely

different

worlds.

Perhaps that is what makes it such a tasty dish. Not only is it delicious, stinky

tofu offers

a valuable lesson:

never judge people at first glance, for

true beauty

comes from the inside.

41. Why did stinky tofu become the author’s f

avorite dish?

A. It was related to family tradition.

B. It turned out to be quite delicious.

C. Grandma encouraged him to try it.

D. His appetite for food had increased.

42. What did the author think of his uncle at first?

A. He was a quiet person.

B. He was an energetic guy.

C. He was an immature man.

D. He was a strange creature.

43. The author’s attitude towards Uncle Chan changed when ____.

A. Chan’s footsteps woke up the author

B. Chan showed his friendliness to the author

C. Chan displayed his love towards his mother

D. Chan’s blank expression made the author smile

44. The comparison between stinky tofu and the author’s uncle serves to ____.

A. highlight the nature of Uncle Chan

B. analyze the family relationship

C. describe a childhood memory

D. introduce a traditional Chinese food

45. What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage?

A. We shouldn’t judge by appearances.

B. A person’s taste changes over time.

C. Blood is thicker than water.

D. You are what you eat.

C

Essentially, everyone has two ages: a chronological (

按时间计算的

) age, how

old the calendar says, you are, and a biological age, basically the age at which

your body functions as it compares to average fitness or health levels.

“Chronological

age

isn’t

how

old

we

really

are.

It’s

merely

a

number,”

said

Professor

David

Sinclair

at

Harvard

University.

“It

is

biological

age

that

determines our health and ultimately our lifespan. We all age biologically at

difference

rates

according

to

our

genes,

what

we

eat,

how

much

we

exercise,

and

what

environment we live in. Biological age is the number of candles we really should

be blowing out. In the future, with advances in our ability to control biological

age, we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.”

To calculate biological age, Professor Levine at Yale University identified

nine biomarkers (

生物标志

) that seemed to be the most influential on lifespan by

a simple blood test. The numbers of those markers, such as blood sugar and immune

(

免疫的

)

measures,

can

be

put

into

the

computer,

and

the

algorithm

(

算式，算法

)

does

the rest.

Perhaps what’s most important here is that these measures can be changed.

Doctors

can

take

this

information

and

help

patients

make

changes

to

lifestyle,

and

hopefully take steps to improve their biolo

gical conditions. “I think the most

exciting thing about this research is that these things aren’t set in stone,”

Levine

said.

“People

can

be

given

the

information

earlier

and

take

steps

to

improve

their health before it’s too late.”

Levine even entered her own numbers into the algorithm. She was surprised by

the results. “I always considered myself a very healthy person. I’s physically
