I spent a lot of time making a large shelf for my cave. I found a big tree and chopped it down. This took three days. Then, I

chopped off the branches. This took another two days. After that, I chopped the wood away from one side, and then from

the other side. This took more than one month. Altogether it took forty-two days. In England, two men with a good saw could

have made six of these shelves from that tree in half a day.

I also spent a lot of time looking after my corn and rice crops. I had to protect them from wild animals and birds, so I made a

fence around them. I shot some of the birds and hung them up near thecorn. After that, all the other birds stayed away. I

used one of the old swords I had taken from the ship to cut down the corn when it was ready. I was very proud of my corn

and rice and worked hard to increase my crops. A few years later, I would have enough corn to make bread. I had to find a

way to grind the corn into flour, but the rocks on the island were not hard enough. I finally discovered that a very hard piece

of wood would do. I used some cloth to separate the meal from the husks. Not having anoven, I made some square pots with

lids and covered them with hot ashes. This baked the dough, and I had bread! I made my cave bigger again to hold the corn




and flour so that I could make bread whenever I needed to.

I sometimes wondered how I could get to the land which was visible from the other side of the island. I went to the ship’s

boat that was blown onto the beach in the shipwreck. However, I could not get it to the water. It was too heavy. I tried many

different ways of doing it, but none of them were successful.

Fresh off his MasterChef Junior run, Evan Robinson, who is only 12 years old, is using his kitchen skills to raise money for

Puerto Rico. The TV show contestant wanted to offer help after hurricanes(飓风) hit the country last September.

“I’ve been seeing, all over the news, people struggling,” Evan said. “They can’t get fresh water, electricity; they can’t get

really anything. I know I’m just a kid, but I think if a lot of people do something, a lot of things will get better.”

He raises money by baking and taking online orders for homemade empanadas(馅饼). He started cooking on a recent Friday

night. By the next Sunday evening, he had filled orders for 420 empanadas — — roasted chicken, cheeseburger and

vegetarian — — getting $18 for six empanadas and $30 for a dozen.

His mom, Veronica Robinson, helped him send the empanadas around the city. “We’ve never done anything like this before,”

she said. “But it’s a great idea, so I want to help him make it work.”

For Evan’s out-of-town friends and supporters, he has set up a crowdfunding(众筹) page. Through it, he’s hoping to raise $1,

500 in “virtual (虚拟的) empanadas”. This is because he heard on the news that it could take Puerto Rico years, maybe

even 10 years, to recover(复原) from the hurricanes. And he said, “Fruit pies are up next. And my baking will continue as

well.”

It’s a difficult job, especially for a kid with homework and Boy Scouts and friendships to tend to. But he doesn’t seem worried.

“It’s what we’re supposed to do.” he said. “I’m a human. They’re humans. Why shouldn’t I help them?”

Indeed.

38. How did Evan help those struggling in Puerto Rico?

A. He asked his parents to send the empanadas around the city.

B. He continued offering a lot of fresh water and fruit pies to them.

C. He donated his big winning prize in his MasterChef Junior run.

D. He raised money by selling homemade empanadas through online orders.

39. Evan set up a crowdfunding page because .

A. he raised more money than he expected for the people in need




B. he knew that it could take Puerto Rico a long time to recover

C. he wanted more and more friends to know his kitchen skills

D. the number of online orders was beyond his expectation

40. According to the passage, which are the best words to describe Evan?

A. kind-hearted and helpful B. careful and confident

C. honest and hard-working D. humorous and organized

41. How can we understand the last sentence in the passage?

A. Friendship is important in our lives. B. It’s difficult for humans to raise money.

C. We should help those who’re in need. D. Everyone must do something unusual.

【答案】38. D 39. B 40. A 41. C

【解析】文章讲述了 Evan Robinson 一个 12岁的小男孩，通过卖他自己制作的食物来为受灾的人筹钱。38. 根据 He raises money by baking and taking online orders for homemade empanadas(馅饼).可知是通过在网上卖馅饼来筹钱；故选 D

Bats are the only mammals that can fly a great distance, but they have another ability. Many bats live a very long time for an

animal their size.

European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long. They hope to make discoveries to fight the aging

process (过程) in human beings.

Last week, the group of scientists said they had found important biological qualities in some bat species. The group studied

bat chromosomes (染色体), a line of genes found in the nucleus(核) ofcells. The scientists were most interested in parts

connected to the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres(端粒). Telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes,

which shorten each time a cell divides. Scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down. .

A report on bats was published this month in the journal Science Advances.




Among the leaders of the study was Emma Teeling, a biologist with University College Dublin in Ireland. Teeling said studying

long-living mammals that have developed ways to fight aging “is another way to prove the molecular(分子) basis of

extended ‘health length.’” She added that studying bats made scientists able to learn more about the processes “that drive

healthy aging.”

The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over

more than 60 years. Of these animals, the greater mouse-eared bat generally lived the longest, an average of 37 years.

The scientists said this and a related species, which are grouped together under the name Myotis, had telomeres that did not

shorten with age. Another Myotis bat holds the record for oldest age, reaching 41 years.

The scientists’ findings suggest that these bats’ cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres. This, they said, helps

七、任务型阅读请阅读下面短文，在短文后表格中的空白处填上适当的単词(注意:每空 1个单词)。When we are talking to someone, we tend to change someone else’s mind to our way of thinking.And we may often find it

difficult to do that, So here are five tips on how to change someone’s mind.

The first one is never to turn the conversation into an argument. It should be a conversation whereyou show your opinions

and the facts that you’ve collected. By showing them the facts, we want to tell other people that we are right. But

emotionally, they may not totally agree with what you say. So when you are trying to change someone’s mind, try to keep it

as a conversation and not an argument.

The second tip is never to say that you are wrong. If someone makes a statement that you think iswrong, it’s better to point it

out by saying, “I thought otherwise but I might be wrong, let’s look at the facts.” The key is to say that you might be wrong,

not that you are wrong. This opens up the other person to look at the data again and shows them that you’re not bullheaded

(顽固的) and that you’re not going to change your opinion. You’re showing them that you are open to new ideas and this is

super important in changing someone else’s mind to your way of thinking.

Tip number three is to get the other person saying yes as fast as possible. You may begin your conversation on hobbies that

you guys have, something that they’re crazy about, something that gets them saying yes. Because the more that you get

them to say yes now, the more likely they are to say yes in the future. A conversation like this will get them to start to like

you and maybe even more open up to ideas that you have. It builds up trust between the two of you.

Tip number four is to let the other person do a great amount of talking. If you let them talk more, you’re going to show that

you actually care about their opinions and ideas, which will earn their respect in the end. By listening to them, you’re going to

create a friendly relationship and build trust. So when you express your opinions, they will also show a willingness to listen.




Never interrupt them when they are talking. Just listen patienly with an open mind, encourage them to talk even more and

more so that when it’s your tum to talk, they’ll listen and say nothing.

The last tip is to let the other person feel like the idea was theirs. It’s wiser to make suggestions and let someone else come

to the conclusion, then they have a sense of pride that it’s their idea. Giving someone the data and letting them come to the

conclusion let them feel like it is their idea and they are proud of it.
