BIn the past, westerners were not familiar with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), but now it is becoming globally popular. According to a government report,
17、 TCM has been introduced into183 countries and regions around the world.However, westerners only have a little knowledge of TCM. Their understanding of TCM may be limited to acupuncture (针灸), cupping and massage (按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on a U.S. famous swimmers back fr
18、om cupping to relax his muscles and reduce pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016.In fact, Chinese herbs (药草) play a more important role in curing diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. Therefore, it is disapp
19、ointing to know that although 103 world Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine. TCM is much less popular than Western medicine partly due to the slow development of Chinese herbs.Herbs can be made into pills
20、, powder and soup. The kind of herbs used, their quality, quantity and the processing together determine the effectiveness of the prescription (处方). Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization. The chemical composi
21、tion and functions of its medicine are still unclear and their effects are unstable. Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades and a number of factories are increasingly producing patented TCM drugs.Another reason why TCM prescription drugs have developed slowly is that it lacks cr
22、eativity. While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicine according to prescriptions handed down from the past. That Chinese chemist Tu Yoyo won the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria (痢疾) tr

What is the best title of the passage?A. The Effectiveness of TCM.B. The Barriers to TCMs Development. C. The Weakness of TCM.D. The Fut
26、ure of TCM.CWhile elephants born without tusks (长牙) are not unheard of，they normally form just 2 to 6 percent of the population. However, that is not the case at Mozambiques Gorongosa National Park, where an astonishing 33 percent of female elephants born after the countrys civil war ended in 1992 a
27、re tuskless. While that may appear to be just a coincidence, Joyce Poole, an elephant behavior expert, has another theory. The researcher thinks we may be witnessing unnatural evolution of the species due to the constant hunting of elephants for valuable ivory.Poole says before the countrys 15-year-
28、long civil war, the 100,000acre park was home to over 4,000 elephants. However, by the time the conflict ended in 1992, about 90 percent of them had been killed for ivory to help finance weapons (武器) and meat to feed the soldiers. Of the less than 200 survivors, over 50 percent of adult females had
29、no tusks. Therefore, it is not surprising that the parks tuskless elephant population has grown greatly.This is not the first time researchers have observed a great change in the population of elephants. At Zambias South Luangwa National Park and Lupande Game Management Area, which were heavily hunt
30、ed in the 1970s and 1980s, 35% of elephants 25 years or older and 13% of those younger than 25 are now without tusks. A 2008 study published in the African Journal of Ecology found that the number of tuskless females at the Ruaha National Park in Tanzania went from 10.5 percent in 1969 to almost 40
31、percent in 1989, largely due to illegal hunting for ivory.The recent ban on ivory in both the US and China should help get rid of, or at least reduce, elephant hunting. However, scientists are not sure how long it will take for elephants with a higher rate of tuskless females, to change the trend.28
32、. What is the probable cause of the phenomenon mentioned in Paragraph 1? A. Illegal hunting.B. Constant farming. C. A pure coincidence.D. Natural evolution.29. Why did people kill so many elephants during the civil war in Mozambique? A. To get funds by selling ivory.B. To develop new weapons. C. To
33、provide food for local people.D. To make ivory products.30. Which of the following had the earliest record on tuskless elephants? A. Gorongonsa National Park.B. South Luangwa National Park. C. The Ruaha National Park.D. Lupande Game Management Area.31. What does the underlined phrase “the trend” in
34、the last paragraph refer to? A. Elephants facing greater danger. B. Elephants growing more slowly. C. Fewer female elephants staying alive. D. More female elephants being tuskless.DMost autonomous vehicles test-driving in cities navigate (导航) by using 3-D maps marking every edge of roadside with alm
35、ost centimeter-level accuracy. But few places have been mapped in such detail, which has left most areas like smaller towns inaccessible to those driverless cars.Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) now have developed a new navigation system that guides autonomous vehicles
36、without such accurate maps. This technology can help driverless cars travel almost anywhere.The navigation system maps out a course down unfamiliar roads much as a human driver would by continually scanning its surroundings, with a laser sensor (激光感应器), to measure how close it is to the edges of the
37、 road. Meanwhile, the car also follows a tool like a smart phone map app that provides directions to its destination, as well as information about the rules of the road, such as speed limits and the positions of stoplights. Teddy Ort, a roboticist at MIT, test-drove a car equipped with this navigati
38、on system on a one-way road. It slowly traveled one kilometer without any human assistance.This system assumes that a car has a clear path down the road, but it can be paired with other existing computing technology to discover in-road obstacles (障碍), says Ort. The researchers also plan to build a v
39、ersion of this system which can spot markings painted on streets, so that the car can drive on two-way roads. Self-driving cars with this navigation system may need other sensors to work in different conditions,” Alexander Wyglinski, and electrical engineer at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Since
40、laser sensors dont work well in rain or snow, these cars might need additional imaging technologies to drive safely in bad weather.32. What may be a problem for most driverless cars?A. They fail in test-driving.B. Their maps are out-dated.C. They run in limited areas.D. Their guides are unreliable.3
41、3. What can we infer about the MIT navigation system?A. It includes accurate maps.B. It removes in-road obstacles.C. It works by detecting the road.D. It features a smart phone app.34. What is the purpose of Paragraph 4?A. To confirm the test-drive results.B. To indicate further research areas.C. To
42、 recognize scientists achievements.D. To show the creativity of driverless cars.35. What is the main idea of the text?A. Autonomous cars beat human drivers on country roads.B. Navigating self-driving cars may work in different conditions. C. Smart mapping technology adds to the functions of self-dri

The personalized license plate caught my eye It read “SUNZOUT”. This brought an immediate smile to my face. 39 A
46、nd in the midst of the longest, darkest, coldest winter, this in itself was a blessing. But then my eyes moved to the car that was next to the SUNZOUT vehicle. The license plate on that car read “GROUCH”. This brought more than a smile to my face as I laughed out loud! Seeing the two opposite licens
