29、vacations I sat on the edge of the street and watched enviously the other boys on the block play baseball. I was never asked to take part even when one team had a member missingnot out of special cruelty, but because they took it for granted I would be no good at it. They were right, of course.I wou
30、ld never forget the wonderful evening when something changed. The baseball ended about eight or eight thirty when it grew dark. Then it was the custom of the boys to retire to a little stoop that stuck out from the candy store on the corner and that somehow had become theirs. No grownup ever sat the
31、re or attempted to. There the boys would sit, mostly talking about the games played during the day and of the game to be played tomorrow. Then long silences would fall and the boys would wander off one by one. It was just after one of those long silences that my life as an outsider changed. I can no
32、 longer remember which boy it was that summer evening who broke the silence with a question: but whoever he was, I nod to him gratefully now. “Whats in those books youre always reading?” he asked casually. “Stories,” I answered. “What kind?” asked somebody else without much interest.Nor do I know wh
33、at drove me to behave as I did, for usually I just sat there in silence, glad enough to be allowed to remain among them; but instead of answering his question, I told them for two hours the story I was reading at the moment. The book was Sister Carrie. They listened bug-eyed and breathless. I must h
34、ave told it well, but I think there was another and deeper reason that made them to keep an audience. Listening to a tale being told in the dark is one of the most ancient of mans entertainments, but I was offering them as well, without being aware of doing it, a new and exciting experience.The book
35、s they themselves read were the Rover Boys or Tom Swift or G.A.Henty. I had read them too, but at thirteen I had long since left them behind. Since I was much alone I had become an enthusiastic reader and I had gone through the books-for-boys series. In those days there was no reading material betwe
36、en childrens and grownups books or I could find none. I had gone right from Tom Swift and His Flying Machine to Theodore Dreiser and Sister Carrie. Dreiser had hit my young mind, and they listened to me tell the story with some of the wonder that I had had in reading it.The next night and many night
37、s thereafter, a kind of unspoken ritual took place. As it grew dark, I would take my place in the center of the stoop and begin the evenings tale. Some nights, in order to taste my victory more completely, I cheated. I would stop at the most exciting part of a story by Jack London or Bret Harte, and
38、 without warning tell them that that was as far as I had gone in the book and it would have to be continued the following evening. It was not true, of course; but I had to make certain of my new-found power and position. I enjoyed the long summer evenings until school began in the fall. Other words
39、of mine have been listened to by larger and more fashionable audiences, but for that tough and athletic one that sat close on the stoop outside the candy store, I have an unreasoning love that will last forever.28.Watching the boys playing baseball, the writer must have felt _.Abitter and lonely Bsp
40、ecial and differentCpleased and excited Ddisturbed and annoyed29.According to Paragraph 3, story-telling was popular among the boys basically because _.Athe story was from a childrens bookBlistening to tales in the dark was an age-old practiceCthe boys had few entertainments after darkDthe boys didn
41、t read books by themselves30.Sometimes the writer stopped at the most exciting part of a story to _.Aplay a mean trick on the boys Bexperience more joy of achievementCadd his own imagination to the story Dhelp the boys understand the story better31.What is the message conveyed in the story?AOne can
42、find his position in life in his own way.BFriendship is built upon respect for each other.CReading is more important than playing games.DAdult habits are developed from childhood. DBEIJING Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has helped 17,000 HIV carriers and AIDS patients in China since 2004, expert
43、s said on Wednesday. TCM performs as an effective supplement to Western therapy in terms of alleviating patients symptoms, including fever, cough, asthenia and diarrhea, thus making life easier for them, said Wang Jian, deputy director of the TCM Center for AIDS Prevention and Treatment with the Sta
44、te Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine. China started to give AIDS patients free TCM therapy in a pilot project carried out among 2,300 patients in five provinces in 2004. By last October, the projects had expanded to 19 provinces. The TCM therapy is usually applied to carriers whose immu
45、ne system is not too weak to receive the Western medication that is largely known as antiretroviral therapy(抗逆转录病毒疗法); or to patients who suffer side effects from the therapies. A biological indicator for this is CD4, a type of cell in the immune system. When a carriers CD4 count reaches 350 per cub
46、ic millimeter(立方毫米)or below they will need western treatment. According to our clinical research on around 8,900 patients over the past four years, their CD4 decreased by 12 per cubic millimeter each year after taking TCM therapy, while the control group that did not take any medicine lost 30 to 50
47、cells a year, Wang said. However, the combination of Western therapy and TCM is even better, with the patients CD4 increasing by 15 each year. Although TCM therapy cannot cure the disease completely, it can surely help the patients in some way, said Amir Housman Kashmir, a clinical PhD in Chinese Me
48、dicine from Iran, currently based in Beijing. In 2010, Kashmir met two non-Chinese AIDS patients who received TCM therapy in China. One of them used TCM therapy for six months and felt his immunity was improved. The other had caught some skin and pulmonary diseases, but later the symptoms were not s
49、o severe, Kashmir said. It was from that time that I started to believe in the effectiveness of TCM therapy in curing AIDS. As a TCM doctor, I have seen a good number of people visiting China to try TCM therapy to treat other chronic(慢性的)diseases. I have to say TCM works well in curing chronic disea
50、ses, but I believe there is still space for improvement, especially in terms of introducing the drugs working mechanism to Western doctors. According to Wang Jian, Chinese herbal medicines work differently from Western anti-HIV drugs. The Western therapies target blocking viral replication, but TCM
51、therapy works towards increasing peoples immunity. Wang said that Chinese government has assigned 220 million yuan ($34.49 million) since 2004 for TCM therapy research, and further efforts will be made to develop better treatment based on a combination of TCM and Western Medicine. By the end of 2011
52、, China is estimated to have 780,000 people living with HIV/AIDS, including 154,000 patients with full-blown afflictions, official statistics show. 32. According to this passage, an AIDS patient whose CD4 count decreases from 400 per cubic millimeter might get the best result by receiving _.A. the T
53、CM therapyB. the Western therapy C. no treatment at allD. both Western and TCM therapy33. The article implies that _.A. it was in China that Kashmir had a good knowledge of the therapy for AIDSB. the western therapy has a better effect on chronic disease than TCM therapyC. the Western therapy does g
54、reater damage to immune system than TCMD. the Chinese government has made further efforts to fight against AIDS34. What is the passage mainly discussed?A. TCM is a new therapy for curing AIDS. B. TCM can help to fight AIDSC. TCM is a better cure for AIDS at present. D. AIDS is spreading in China.35.
55、 Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?A. On the website of TCM center. B. In a medical magazine. C. In a newspaper. D. On TV. 第二节 (共5小题,每小题3分,满分15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。Urbanization Until relatively recently, the vast majority of human beings lived and died wi
