11、home, Dad never met me, even in severe weather. If I grumbled, hed say in his loudest father-voice, “Thats what your legs are for!”The walk didnt bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads. I also felt less valued because my father didnt seem concerned about m
12、y safety. But that feeling was changed one spring evening.It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I was dying for home. When the bus reached the stop, I stepped off the bus and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.A row of hedges(树篱) edged the dri

Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when I saw something gray moving alo

21、hat the biologic mechanisms(生物学机制) relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病), which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even
22、very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that f

28、September, I entered middle school. Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read. To keep up with other children, I took great trouble to finish the task. With my nose a couple of inches from the page, I was tired easily. Whats worse, after I had read several pages on my own,
29、the words slipped off the page into inky pools.However, then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids do now. Instead, Mom volunteered to read out loud.

Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.People have used secret codes
36、 for thousands of years. 26 Code breaking never lags(落后)far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.There are three main types of cryptography. 27 For example, the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels” spell out the hidden message“ Me
37、et me.” 28 You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Lets number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read“13 5 5 20 13 5.”A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the
38、 message of a real code, you must have a code book. 29 For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me”. The message “Bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.” 30 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.A. It is ve
39、ry hard to break a code without the code book.B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.D. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.E. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word sp
40、ell it out.F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.G. Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.四、完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The world always makes way for the dream
