If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

Dreaming

you

would

want

superhuman

strength

sound

silly,

but

it

actually

gets

to

the

heart

of

what

really

matters

in

your life.

Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to

improve the world.

4

a

different

kind

of

superpower

the

power

to

make

a

difference in the lives of others.

y

enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do

something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. V

olunteer

or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Get

involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But

why not start now?

experience

working

health,

development,

and

energy

the

twenty

years

has

been

one

of

the

of

C

In

the

depths

of

the

French

Guianese

rainforest,

there

still

remain

unusual

groups

of

indigenous(

土著的

)

people.

Surprisingly,

these

people

live

largely

by

their

own

laws

and

their

own social customs. And yet, people in this area are in fact French citizens because it has been a

colony(

殖民地

) of the French Republic since 1946. In theory, they should live by the French law

is often ignored or unknown, thus making them into an interesting area of “lawlessness” in the

world.

The

lives

of

these

people

have

finally

been

recorded

thanks

to

the

effects

of

a

Frenchman

form Paris called Gin. Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of

this area, which sits on the edge of the Amazon rainforest, with half its population of only 250,000

living in its capital, Cayenne.

“I have a special love for the French Guianese people

. I have worked there on and off for

almost ten years,” says Gin. “I’ve been able to keep firm friendships with them. Thus I have been

allowed to gain access to their living environment. I don’t see it as a lawless land. But rather I see

it as an area of f

reedom.”

“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life,”

continues Gin. “I prefer to work in black and white, which allows me to show different specific

worlds more clearly.”

His black-and- white pictures present a world almost lost in time. These pictures show people

seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for. These local citizens now have to

balance their traditional self- supporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern

French

Republic,

which

brings

with

it

not

only

necessary

state

welfare,

but

also

alcoholism,

betrayal and even suicide.

28. Why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in French Guiana?

A. They seldom follow the French law.

B. They often ignore the Guianese law.

C. They are separated from the modern world.

6

D. They are both Guianese and French citizens.

29. Gin introduced the special world of the indigenous Guianese as _________.

A. a tour guide

B. a geographer

C. a film director

D. a photographer

30. What is Gin’s attitude towards the lives of the indigenous Guianese?

A. Cautious.

B. Doubtful.

C. Uninterested.

D. Appreciative.

31. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?

A. The modern French lifestyle.

B. The self-supporting hunting.

C. The uncivilized hunting.

D. The French Republic.

D

A

warm

drink

of

milk

before

bed

has

long

been

the

best

choice

for

those

wanting

a

good

night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—

if it is milked from a

cow at night.

Researchers

have

discovered

that

“night

milk”

contains

more

melatonin(

褪黑激素

),

which

has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.

The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk

powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.

Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active

and

less

anxious

than

those

fed

with

the

milk

collected

during

daytime,

according

to

the

study

published in

The Journal of Medicinal Food

.

Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.

While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to

now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.

7

Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of

the calcium content, which helps people to relax.

Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as

the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the

greater burden you will put on your body at night.

32. According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_______.

A. started sleep more easily

B. were more anxious

C. were less active

D. woke up later

33. Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?

A. It’s been tested on mice for ten times.

B. It can make people more energetic.

C. It exists in milk in great amount.

D. It’s used in sleeping drugs.

34. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Night Milk and Sleep

B. Fat, Sugar and Health

C. An Experiment on Mice

D. Milk Drinking and Health

35. How does the author support the theme of the text?

A. By giving examples.

B. By stating arguments.

C. By explaining statistical data.

D. By providing research results.

选项。

Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. 36

In general,

they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.

8

One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones

between

men

and

women.

37

Between

the

ages

of

about

12

and

50,

women

produce

hormones that are involved in fertility(

生育能力

). These hormones also have a positive effect on

the heart and blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from

heart attacks.

38 They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that wome

n generally ger sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example:

women, on average, get fewer colds than men.39 Scientists are still not exactly sure how influen

ce aging, but they believe that they do. Some think that a

woman’s

body cells have a tendency(

)

to age more slowly than a

man’s.

Others think that a

man’s

body cells have a tendency to age more

quickly. 40

A

．

However, women, on average, live longer.

B .The biological factor plays an important part.

C. Women are also helped by their female genes.

D. The female hormones also protect the body in another way.

E. Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.

F. Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.
