There is a guy Tyrell who is almost completely blind. Tyrell was all smiling for about a week. Hes normall
18、y a quite happy kid, but I could tell this was different from the normally silly smile I see. Wednesday morning my curiosity finally got me to ask him why.He told me that he was going to ride his new 3-wheeled bike when he got home. He couldnt control his happiness. When he got off, he gave me a smi
19、le. A smile will forever be in my heart. The next morning, I noticed that his eyes were quite puffy (浮肿的). So were his mothers. I asked them why. She explained that was due to many hours of tears the night before. She said that Tyrell got to ride the bike once before he had to come in for dinner and
20、 was promised he could ride it again afterward. He left it in the back yard where they thought it would be safe.However, after dinner, the bike was nowhere to be found. They immediately broke into tears because they knew the thing that he treasured so much was stolen. She called her close friend to
21、find some comfort.The friend called her up later and said that she forgot to tell Tyrells mom that she had something for them and asked if it would be OK to bring it over. She, of course, was still crying from the thought that another bike would be impossible to afford and said yes. The friend broug
22、ht over a huge box, in which there was a brand new bike for Tyrell.When they noticed what was in the box, they thanked their angel and cried even harder, not of sadness but of joy, and thankfulness. 36.

25、an obtain happiness from helping othersBGoing to college has been such a new experience for me. Everything is different from when I was in high school. One thing Ive noticed is that I havent been focusing on my coursework like I planned. I thought I would spend most of my college life studying. But
26、since Ive been in college, about 60 percent of my time has been devoted to social life, while only 40 percent of my time has been devoted to my studies. I never knew I would make so many friends in such a short time.Its been so overwhelming (无法抵抗的)! Im not saying that making friends is bad, but Im s
27、tarting to realize how much socializing has cut down on the time I should have spent on studying. Needless to say, that has to be changed. Ive realized that I really dont want to spend an extra year or two here just because I slacked off as a freshman. So the first thing Im going to do is to cut dow
28、n on the amount of time I spend socializing. I will also have to say goodbye to a good part of the activities I like to attend. Its really difficult to cut these things out of my life, but I have to choose: I can have a full-time social life and fail college, or I can learn to balance my time betwee
29、n friends and studying and keep good grades. I think Ill stick to that second option!I may be a little strict on myself, but Im here to get an education, not to learn how to socialize more! I want to have fun at college, but at the same time, I want to get a good education and have a bright future!
30、39. What did the writer realize about his first year at college?A. He doesnt work as hard as in high school.B. Teachers dont care about him any more.C. He could make quite a lot of friends.D.

32、. spare no effort C. have a good timeD. make less effort42. We can infer from the passage that the writer will _ at college.A. spend more time on study B. make a lot of friendsC. take more activitiesD. cut down his studying time CAfter a couple has had their first child, to their disappointment they
33、 became infertile and couldnt have more children. Cloning would enable such a couple to have a second child, perhaps a younger twin to the child they already have. Many couples have difficulty having children, and sometimes it is impossible for couples to have children because they are infertile. Cl
34、oning would allow these couples to have children.It is hard to tell someone that they cannot use cloning to have children when no other possible ways to have children are available. This is one reason why it is difficult to decide whether cloning is moral or not. The following are some of the reason
35、s why cloning should be allowed.Through cloning, research can progress. We possibly can learn more about cell. We may develop technology to allow easier genetic testing and fixing problems such as spinal cord injuries, cancer, and many more.Cloning organs for organ transplants (移植) is one of the maj
36、or practical reasons that cloning should be allowed. There is always a high demand for organs. Some argue for the cloning of humans to create extra body parts. Others talk of just wanting to clone an organ to replace a faulty organ.Rejuvenation (恢复青春) is also a key argument for advocates (提倡) of clo
37、ning. Some scientists believe that injecting cloned healthy heart cells into damaged heart tissue will lead to healing of the heart. By combining the technology for cloning and the technology for growing human stem cells, conditions like Alzheimers, Parkinsons, and some other ageing disease may be c
38、urable. The possibilities are endless and may be left undiscovered if human cloning is forbidden.43. The underlined word “infertile” in Para. 1 means “_”.A. unable to have children B. too poor to grow cropsC. poor in pregnant knowledge D. unable to afford to bring up children44. How many reasons doe

41、for business in 2012 and would allow guests to travel around the world in 80 minutes.Its architects say the space hotel will be the most expensive in the galaxy, costing $4 million for a three-day stay.During that time guests would see the sun rise 15 times a day and use Velcro suits to crawl (爬) ar
42、ound their pod (分离舱) rooms by sticking themselves to the walls like Spiderman.Company director Xavier Claramunt says the three-bedroom hotels joined up pod structure, which makes it look like a model of molecules, was based on the fact that each pod room had to fit inside a rocket to be taken into s
43、pace.“Its the bathrooms in zero gravity that are the biggest challenge,” says Claramunt. “How to provide enough space for more private activities of the guests is not easy.”But they may have solved the issue of how to take a shower in weightlessness the guests will enter a spa room in which bubbles
44、of water will float around.When guests are not admiring the view from the windows of their pod rooms， they will take part in scientific experiments on space travel.“There is fear associated with going into space,” said Claramunt. “Thats why the shuttle rocket will remain fixed to the space hotel for
45、 the duration of the guests stay, so they know they can get home again.”“But,” says Claramunt, “Im hopeful that the impact of seeing the earth from a distance will stimulate (激发) the guests urge to value and protect our planet.”47.
