7、s just a pingpong ball. To a Beverly Cleary fan, its two motorcycle helmets for mice.Ever since I read Clearys series about Ralph, the motorcycle-riding mouse, Ive never looked at a pingpong ballor the worldthe same way. Its amazing to think that its been more than forty years since I checked out Th
8、e Mouse and the Motorcycle from my school library in Northport, and yet that one particular image is as clear to me as ever.And why shouldnt it be? Its perfectHow I wanted a mouse of my own to ride a toy motorcycle around my house! Thanks to Clearys genius, a talking mouse friend seemed indeed possi
9、ble.While much of childrens literature tried to explain the world from the point of view of a wise and gentle adult, Cleary created characters who saw the world as only children can. With great interest, I read every book that bore Beverly Clearys name. She seemed like a friend who understood me in
10、ways I didnt yet understand myself.Ive written eight childrens books and have always kept Beverlys sense of wonder in mind. I dont remember at exactly what age I decided I wanted to write books, but I know that by second or third grade, my teacher arranged a writing project that allowed us to focus
11、on whatever we wanted. My best friend picked dolphins; I chose childrens authors, with a large amount of my project being about who else? Beverly Cleary!I told that story recently to a school group. One of the students said, “Thats fantastic! You did your project on childrens authors and then you be
12、came one!”“Yes,” I said. “And my best friend who did her project on dolphinsbecame a dolphin!”“Really?” the students said together in astonishment.And that perfectly sums up why I love writing for children: the belief that fantastic, magical things can happen. Best friends can become dolphins; mice
13、can ride toy motorcycles and become our friends.Thats what Beverly Cleary taught me. In the hands of a gifted storyteller, anything is possible. and so funny.4.

16、D. How he author was inspired to be a writer by Beverly Cleary.CGaelic had been the major culture in Scotland. But many forces tried to weaken its power. The final straw came in 1609, when some laws required Highland Scottish leaders to send their children to English-speaking schools. Naturally, the
17、 culture continued to weaken through the 20th century. Though Gaelic still existed in some rural areas, a lack of jobs meant young people in Gaelic areas were leaving for English-speaking cities.Iain Noble was a wealthy businessman from Germany. He quickly fell in love with Gaelic culture when he mo
18、ved to Scotland. So he set up the college of Sabhal Mr Ostaig in 1973 on the Isle of Skye. Today, it has more than 1,000 students and is officially the National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture. It is where the revival of Scotlands Gaelic culture started.Of course, the college teaches the lang
19、uage and culture. But the secret to making such impressive cultural achievements is giving language learners skills in industries like media and business. The skills allow students to create local jobs and help make the area known to tourists.Nobles wife Lady Lucilla said his eagerness to revive the
20、 culture was clear. After spending much money setting up the college, Noble had to go to great lengths to find worthwhile teachers. Sometimes he tried hard to find people who had left Skye, “Iain would invite those whose families were from Skye but who were working in Aberdeen, in London and further
21、 afield,” said Lucilla.“Now Ive seen some cool youngsters who are very proud of their Gaelic, and they are fascinated by the culture,” she said.One such youngster is 15-year-old Emily Macdonald. She not only speaks Gaelic fluently with her friends, but is excited to do so.“I feel like were even more
22、 wanting to speak Gaelic, just to keep it alive, because it is really important to our nation,” she said. “And to have this special language that we can speak to each other in is quite special.”8. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?A The fall of Gaelic.B. The future of Gaelic.C. The inf
23、luence of Gaelic.D. The advantages of Gaelic.9. What is the key to the colleges success?A. Having the best Gaelic teachers.B. Teaching students professional skills.C. Receiving much government support.D. Being open to both natives and foreigners.10. What did Lucilla tell us about Noble?A. He made mu
24、ch money from the college.B. He traveled a lot to spread Gaelic culture.C. He spared no effort to do his cultural work.D. He became world-famous because of his college.11. What does Emily Macdonald think of Gaelic language?A. It is the pride of their nation.B. It is hard to learn for youngsters.C. I
25、t has changed a lot over the years.D. It attracts fewer local young people.DScientists say theyve witnessed a never-before-seen type of reproduction in organic robots created in the lab using frog cells.The discovery involves a xenobota simple, “programmable” organism that is created by bringing ste
26、m cells together in a lab. “You can think about this like using the different cells as building blocks like you would build with LEGO,” Douglas Blackiston, a co-author of the study says. The xenobots are made of cells taken from an African frog. The cells arent genetically changed at all, but simply
27、 combined in different arrangements to produce the xenobots, says Blackiston. What the xenobots didself-replicationis new in living organisms, says Michael Levin, a professor of biology at Tufts. It does happen at the molecular (分子的) level, but “we are not aware of any organism that reproduces in th
28、is way,” he says.Xenobots are collections of living cells and have no brain or digestive system. But in a real sense they can be programmedto corral other cells, as in this study, or eventually to do other things. Thats why the researchers think of them as tiny organic robots. “The distinction betwe
29、en a robot and an organism is not nearly as sharp as. we used to think it was,” Levin says. “These creatures, they have properties of both.”The xenobots fuel themselves by using tiny hair-like structures. They have a tendency to spin, which “turns out to be pretty good for collecting piles of things
30、,” such as other cells, Blackiston says. So the team used an artificial intelligence-driven computer simulation (模拟图像) to see how they might control the xenobots into shapes that would be even better at piling things up. The researchers hope that one day these xenobots could be programmed to perform
31、 useful functions such as finding cancer cells in the human body or trapping harmful microplastics in the ocean.But that concerns some scientists. Nita Farahany is a professor who studies the ethics involved in new technologies and was not part of the xenobot research. “Any time we try to improve li
32、fe by means of tech. we should recognize its potential to go really poor,” she said.12. What do we know about the study according to the first two paragraphs?A. The research methods involve LEGO building.B. The cells are genetically changed in the study.C. The self-reproduction takes place in organi
33、c robots.D. The xenobots are made of cells taken from plants.13. What could xenobots be used for in the future?A. Killing cancer cells in the human body.B. Gathering harmful microplastics in the sea.C. Purifying sea water to expand water resources.D. Replicating damaged organ to avoid transplanting
34、organs.14. What is Nita Farahanys attitude towards the discovery?A. Worried.B. Ambiguous.C. Favorable.D. Indifferent.15. Where is this passage most likely from?A. A book review.B. A guidebook.C. A science fiction.D. A scientific journal.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。M
