To tell netizens of online registrationB Dr. Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and In
36、fectious Diseases. At age 75, Fauci has served under five presidents during histenure (任期). His advice is sought all over the world when infectious diseases threaten to become public health crises. He says, when considering the history of public andglobalhealth, vaccines could be the most important
37、intervention that has ever been developed for any public health issue. That was the case with the serious disease caused by the West Nile Virus. West Nile Virus was never in the United States until 1999. It was in the West Nile area of Africa and in the Middle East and it came over to the United Sta
38、tes, likely through a mosquito, or a bird, or a person who was infected. And we had a few cases for the first couple of years and then we had anoutbreaka couple of years after it arrived and now, itscommon at a low level in the United States. It isnt a major public health threat, but it is enough of
39、 an issue that we get enough cases each year and thats the reason why we have to have good mosquito control. We tried to make a vaccine, and would have made a vaccine, for West Nile years ago, but we couldnt find apharmaceuticalcompany that was interested in partnering with us.Today, another virus s
40、pread by mosquitoes, the Zika virus, is an issue of concern to the world. Zika outbreaks are currently happening in many countries and territories. The mosquitoes that can spread Zika live in many parts of the world, including parts of the United States. What people need to understand about Zika is
41、its important to protect pregnant women. It is likely that Zika was in Africa and in Southeast Asia for decades and decades before we had the first recognized outbreak. In the United States, we have close to 700 already travel-related cases. Weve had local outbreaks of dengue (登革热) and chikungunya (
42、基孔肯雅病) in Florida and in Texas and weve been able to successfully contain them. I believe we need to do the same thing, and will do the same thing, with Zika. Fauci will tell you he is a proud workaholic. That means he enjoys working a lot. He works 7 days a week. He says there are many difficult pr
43、oblems in his work. However, just as important as his job, is his health. He is adevotedrunner. Fauci has run severalmarathonsand many 10-kilometer races. He also makes sure that, every day, he does something related to exercise. Fauci hopes that one day it will become possible toeliminatecontrollab
44、le infectious diseases. I want to see the elimination of polio (小儿麻痹症). I want to see HIV no longer be an epidemic, as we know it. I want to see aneraof the end of AIDS. I dont think well ever be able to completely eliminate infectious disease, thats unreasonable. But we can do a lot more toalleviat
45、ethe suffering associated with infectious diseases.58. What did Fauci once experience? A. He has served as five presidents of USA. B. He invented the vaccines against AIDS. C. He was infected by the West Nile Virus. D. He carried out some research on Zika.59. According to the context, what is the sa
46、me medium of West Nile Virus and Zika? A. A mosquito B. A bird C. Pregnant women D. Polluted water60. Which of the following about Zika is WRONG? A. There were local outbreaks of Zika in the USA. B. Zika could be controlled eventually in some way. C. Zika has existed relatively longer out of the USA
47、. D. Less than 700 cases of Zika was found until now. 61. Which word can replace the underlined word “alleviate” in the last paragraph? A. Reproduce B. Relieve C. Reject D. RenewC Only 60 percent of students seeking abachelors degreeat an American college or university finish their study program wit
48、hin six years. That information comes from the United States Department of Education. It was part of a report released in May. The report talks about full-time students who attended a four-year college or university for the first time in 2008. It states that 60 percent of them completed their degree
49、 program by 2014. Experts say there are many reasons why this number is so low. But many schools are looking for ways to increase the graduationrate. For example, every American college or university requires students to identify the main subject, or major, of their studies. After all their requirem
50、ents have been met, students receive their degree in that major. Some universities require individuals to declare a major at the beginning of their studies. Other schools let students wait until their second year. Changing majors is also acceptable. But some experts argue against changing majors. Th
51、ey note it may cause students to take more time to complete their degree program. However, a new study suggests that students who change their majors may be more likely to graduate. The Education Advisory Board (EAB) released the report on the study last month. The board studies higher education and
52、 tries to help American colleges and universities make improvements. The study was based on information gathered from over 78,000 college students. It looked at the graduation rate of students who changed majors within the first four years of study. On average, their graduation rate was between abou
53、t four to six percent higher than students who never changed majors. The report also suggests that changing majors within the first three years of study has little to no effect on the average time it takes students to complete their degree. The EABs senior director Ed Venit wrote the report. He woul
54、d not comment on whether or not college students should change majors. But he said that about 80 percent of students do change at some point. Venit also said it is not completely clear why changing majors might help students. But he thinks some people become more invested in their studies once they
55、have had time to decide what they truly want to do. Students who chose a major early on: maybe they didnt have full information about what they wanted to do. Maybe they just picked something that felt familiar . or their parents pushed them to something, whatever it might be. But maybe they didnt ma
56、ke a full choice early on. . Those students were only, perhaps . just kind of attached to their major, versus students who either wait and explore a little bit longer or have declared something, explored further and found something else that they like even better. Venit added that the Department of
57、Educations graduation rate information is not completely correct. It only includes the rates for students studying for the first time - not for those who have changed schools. These students represent about 40 percent of the university population across the United States.62. What is the present cond
58、ition of American university students? A. Most of them can fulfill their degree program on time. B. Too many extracurricular activities take students study time. C. Many undergraduates were forbidden to change majors. D. 60 percent is considered as a low graduation rate.63. What is the usual way for
59、 schools to increase the graduation rate? A. To offer more time for students to make up their lessons. B. To offer students a chance to alter their majors. C. To await students to choose their favorite majors in 2 years. D. To invest more money for the major establishment.64. What does the report by
60、 Ed Venit tell us? A. Too many undergraduates have no interest in first-chosen majors. B. Changing majors can increase graduate rate by over 10 percent. C. Changing majors had better happen in the first two years. D. Students who change majors will definitely have a better future.65. What is the att
61、itude of Ed Venit to major changing? A. Agreeable B. Opposed C. Neutral D. SustainableD The birth of each human being begins with a complex process of adaptation to the outside world. To successfully adapt to the outside environment the newborns must make many physiological and behavioral adjustment
62、s. They exert an enormous amount of energy establishing stability of different body systems, often in less ideal circumstances. In the past few decades, hospitals have become the accepted environment for childbirth and post birth adjustment. The majority of infants born in Western civilization spend
63、 the first one to three days of their lives in the hospital environment. Recently, rooming-in or accommodating the mother and her newborn in one room has become popular. Despite this shift away from nursery - focused care, many newborns still spend a considerable portion of their hospital stay in th
64、e normal newborn nursery. Karraker explains that this occurs due to .illness of either the mother or the infant, the mothers need for rest, avoiding infections when the mother receives visitors, and the mothers desire to be relieved of caretaking duties at times. The hospital newborn nursery is desi
65、gned and operated according to specific regulations or standards. These standards result in environmental conditions of bright, continuous light and a high level of noise. Hilton referenced Kosten and Van Os as stating that the recommended noise level in the hospital setting should be no more than 3
66、5 decibels (分贝) during sleep periods and 40 decibels when the client is awake. Keefe described the nursery environment as having a noise level of over 80 decibels for an average of 146.8 minutes per four hour period of observation. Keefe warns that an 80 decibel noise level is comparable to loud tra
67、ffic noise. She found that the most striking and persistent noise was the sound of other infants crying. The multiple adjustments that the newborn makes are challenging even in a quiet, noticeable environment. The previously described nursery environmental characteristics present additional challeng
68、es because newborns undergo profound physiological adjustments and are particularly vulnerable to hazardous environmental conditions. Conditions such as excessive light and sound levels affect not only the infants physiological processes but also their behavioral states. Recently, professionals stud
69、ying newborns have focused their attention on newborn behavioral patterns. Thoman, Denenberg & Sievel wrote that A newborns state behaviors reflect both its own internal processes and external influences from the environment. Stability of state organization over time appears to be an important chara
70、cteristic of clinically healthy newborns. In their 1981 study of newborn state organization, Thoman and colleagues observed that the newborns who exhibited irregular or poorly organized state patterns all later developed conditions ranging from delayed development, aplastic anemia, and hyperactivity
71、 to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Obstetrical (助产) nurses assume a major responsibility for monitoring the childbirth adjustment in both the mother and her newborn. Nursing interventions designed to reduce or mask the impact of harmful stimuli in the nursery environment are desirable. Not only must
72、the environment be beneficial to physiological inner adjustment but .the pattern of infant state cycles must become harmoniously integrated with the reappearing features of the environment. Few studies have examined the impact of such interventions on newborns in nursery settings. Research in this a
73、rea is necessary because despite changes in policy related to rooming - in, newborns continue to spend significant amounts of time in the nursery.66. What does a newborn need after birth? A. A clean environment B. A stable body system C. A stable adjustmentD. A successful adaption67. According to Ka
74、rraker, which of the following is RIGHT? A. The mother and her newborn must be accommodated together. B. The short-term hospital environment is enough for the newborn. C. The mother and her newborn should be forbidden to meet visitors. D. The newborn can easily be infected by illnesses from visitors
75、.68. What is the most harmful noise to the newborn? A. The traffic noise B. The environmental condition C. The infant cryingD. The nurses voice69. Which of the following can be the main idea of paragraph five? A. Poor nursery conditions cause harm to newborns. B. Environment mainly influences a newb
76、orns behavior. C. Importance of promoting stable state organization. D. Poor organization develops poor behavioral patterns.70. What can be inferred from the article? A. Hospitals are most suitable for mothers and infants. B. Rooming-in is now quite popular around the world. C. Current nursery envir
77、onment is far from satisfactory. D. Nurses should be responsible for infants adjustment.第四部分：任务型阅读（共 10 小题，每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只写一个单词。 Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an eco
78、nomic boom, and the capital，Buenos Aires，attracted many people. Farmers and ranchers，called gauchos in Argentina, came to Buenos Aires seeking jobs. These jobs didnt pay well，and many people felt lonely and frustrated with their new life in the city. As the unhappy gauchos and new immigrants mixed t
79、ogether in the poor parts of the city, the dance known as the tango evolved. The tango at the beginning was a dance of the lower classes. It was danced in the bars and streets of Buenos Aires and at that time there were many fewer women than men，so if a man didnt want to be left out and wanted to pr
80、actice the new dance, his only choice was to dance with another man. Groups of men would get together to practice so that he could attract the attention of the few available women. Gradually, the dance came into the upper classes of Argentinean society and became seen as being more respectable. In E
81、urope at this time, intense interest in dance from around the world was beginning. This interest in international dance was especially evident in Paris. Every kind of dance from ballet to belly dancing could be found on the stages of the Paris theaters. Tango dancers from Argentina arrived in Europe
82、 on board the boats carrying beef from Argentina. They began to draw the interest of the public as they performed their exciting dance in the cabarets and cafes. Not everyone was for the new dance, however. In fact, it raised a few eyebrows among the more conservative members of society, who found t
83、he tango was a little too shocking. However, the dance did find enough supporters so that even the tangos many critics could not put an end to its spreading popularity. In the early 1900s, dance masters in both Paris and London developed more modest versions of the tango to teach to their students.
84、These students then carried the tango into the ballrooms of Europe. Two forms of the tango emerged at this timethe fluid, stylish Paris tango and the stiffer, more conservative British tango. Neither of these tamed tangos carried the raw passion of the original Argentinian tango though.Soldiers who
85、returned to the United States from World WarI brought to the tango to North America.However, Rudolf Valentino, who danced the tango in the 1921 film The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, really contributed to the growth and popularity of the tango across America. The tango danced in the ballrooms of
86、the United States closely resembled the stiff, proper British tango. The tango reached Japan in 1926, thanks mainly to one man Baron Tsunayoshi “Tsunami” Megata. This Japanese nobleman had been living in Europe for 6 years when he returned to Tokyo in 1926. When he returned to Japan, he took with hi
87、m a handful of tango records and an excellent understanding of the Paris tango. Baron Megata wasted no time in setting up a dance academy in Tokyo in which he could teach his wealthy friends the tango and other popular ballroom dances of Europe. Around 1930, British dance masters began setting up th
88、eir own dance schools in Kobe, and the British tango soon became the most popular version of the tango danced in Japan. Baron Megata is reported to have said, “Whenever you dance, remember you should feel as though you are in love with your partner, even if you have just met the person.” The popular
89、ity of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world, including Asia. In Japan, the 1996 film Shall We Dance? which featured flamenco and tango dancing, led to a dance boom around the country. In 2003 the Argentinean embassy in Seoul hired a local tango dancer to act as a kind of danc

121、s an excellent film for teachers to show their classes to explain global warming. It explains the facts very well, explains away the objections that people have been hearing about from the media, and is also pretty funny at times. The film basically consists of a tour of Al Gores climate change spee
122、ches around the world. It starts off with a few diagrams that many of you have probably seen already. This film is really for the general public who do not know all of this, and it is also for those who might have heard something about global warming here and there but want to see exactly how all of
123、 the facts fit together. I think it is a good film, but it is not perfect. The problems come in the short but noticeable periods when the film tries to be a biography of Al Gore at the same time. I was watching this to find out about global warming, not to find out what Al Gore thought about losing his election. I imagine that these are the bits that teachers will have to skip when they show this to their classes, since they dont really add anything to the film. 20I would have respected Al Gore a bit more if he hadnt tried to make this a film about himself as well.
