18、e for the current outbreak in West Africa. They found that initially the animal systems were not affected by the virus, but succeeding transmission(传送) into other animals caused the virus to “hot up” and become more severe.The team analyzed the viruses at different stages and were able to identify s
19、everal changes in its genetic material that were associated with increased disease.Professor Julian Hiscox, who led the study from the Universitys Institute of Infection and Global Health, explains: “The work tells us that the evolutionary goal of Ebola virus is to become more fatal.”“We were able t

26、lding materials and the fashions for their houses. However, since electricity became more and more expensive, people began to pay much more attention to the energy they could get for their houses and the new ways they could find to protect their houses from both cold and heat.Now, houses of an old y
27、et new type have been widely built. In some parts of the world, people share their houses with their livestock（家畜）.During cold weather, they gather their cows, goats, or other animals and keep them on the first floor of their houses. The reasons are that the animals can be protected from the cold an
28、d that they can help to heat the houses as well. The body heat given off by the animals rises to the second floor of the houses, where people live. By sharing their houses with their livestock, people gain a source of heat.People who live in or near cities do not usually keep livestock. However, hom
29、e builders use the fact that heat rises. This natural law can be used in building houses in these areas. Instead of keeping livestock on the first floor, builders fill it with large rocks. As they are open to the suns rays during cold weather, these rocks take in heat. They also give off the heat, a
30、nd, of course, the warm air rises into the living areas of the houses. So these houses are energy-saving.House-building becomes a great challenge（挑战）to building designers and energy engineers. They try to meet this challenge by learning from old traditions and by using modern technology. And someday
31、 in the future, people will be able to live in more energy-saving houses.27What did people begin to consider as electricity was no longer cheap?AThe climate of their areas. BThe building materials for their houses.CThe fashions for their houses. DThe energy for their houses.28People in some areas ga
32、in a source of heat by _.Aprotecting their livestock from the cold Bkeeping their livestock downstairsCsharing their houses only with their cows Dliving on the second floor with their livestock29The underlined words“natural law”in the third paragraph refer to the fact that _.Aheat goes in the upward
33、 direction Bheat raises the temperature in the housesCheat goes up if temperature is raised Dheat increases the temperature of rocks30From the passage, we can conclude that _.Apeople will no longer consider building materials in the futureBalmost all people will move into the houses heated by large
34、rocksCenergy-saving buildings will become more popular in the futureDenergy engineers will devote themselves only to modern technology第二节 七选五What Teenagers Can Do To Earn More RespectAs teenagers continue to grow and develop into young adults, the transition(过渡) into adulthood has begun.

35、y physical and emotional changes going on, certain manners are often forgotten and other adult traits(特征) are not yet accepted as a way of life.31By doing the following things, you will earn more respect.Contribute to the householdAt the very least, clean up afteryourself. As a teenager, you are old
36、 enough to clean up after yourself. When you make a mess, clean it up.32All chores（零星工作）that you do help to reduce the load of the person who did them before. Now that youre old enough and capable, why shouldntyou contribute to the household?33Be responsible34Whether they are basic things, like brus
37、hing your teeth or doing your homework , or more involved chores that contribute to the household, simply fulfill your responsibilities on time. When adults know that they can rely on you, their trust and respect for you will increase.Solve more of your own problem without asking for helpInstead of
38、taking the easy approach and asking for help, make an effort to solve your problems on your own first. The “easy way” is only easy for you, but it is an extra task for the person from whom you are seeking help.35Depending on the problem, 15 minutes of effort is usually a good guideline.When you beco
