8、en he came up with an idea for a new way to test for pancreatic (胰腺) cancer. When Andraka was 14, a family friend died of the disease, and this affected him deeply. This kind of cancer is particularly serious because there is no test you can have done to find it in the early stages. By the time stan

9、dard tests determine you have the disease, it is often too late. Realizing that this was the case, Andraka decided to try to develop a test that might catch problems at the earliest stages.The road ahead looked difficult for Andraka. He was still a high school student, and he wanted to create someth

10、ing that no one else had done. But Andraka read endlessly about the disease, wrote a proposal for his idea, and sent it out to 200 cancer researchers. Only one professor, Dr.Anirban Maitra, responded positively. Dr.Maitra agreed to work with Andraka on his idea, giving him guidance and access to a l

11、aboratory.The next big reward for Andrakas perseverance was winning the grand prize at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. This great award is given to young innovators who have developed a world-changing idea. Developing the test is likely to take many years, but Andraka hopes the

12、 test will eventually improve peoples lives and maybe save them.Jack Andraka is not alone as a young innovator. After all, there were 1,499 other contestants for the Intel award, and all of them had ground-breaking ideas. For Andraka, having a family that loves science and encourages creative thinki

13、ng gave him an advantage. But the key for Andraka is that reading, research, and discovery are just plain fun, and the chance to improve the world around him in the process makes it even better.4Why did Andraka decide to develop a test for pancreatic cancer?AHis friends encouragement.

16、e is the mother of success. Anyone wanting to help the poor may like this idearecycling aluminum cans in a different way, which is apparently also good for the environment. So youre actually killing two birds with one stone. It goes without saying that recycling aluminum cans can save resources, ene

17、rgy, time and money. People usually save and place aluminum cans in the dustbins, which are then collected and taken away by cleaners, who will finally recycle them in the recycling center. But if you save the aluminum cans, and skip the cleaners, you can save these same cans for something more impo

18、rtanthelping the poor. In other words, by doing less, you are giving the environmental cause some new significance.Here is how to put this idea into action. Take your aluminum cans and place them in a plastic bag. For the dirty ones, rinse them out first. Store the bag of clean aluminum cans. Once y

19、ou collect about one hundred cans or more, take the cans to the recycle center yourself. There are about eighteen aluminum cans in a pound. And you can receive three to four dollars for one hundred cans. Donate your three to four dollars to the poor or any charity organization of your choice.By now,

20、 you may wonder if your few dollars have really made a difference to the poor. Consider this: Is there any individual or any specific event that is great enough to change the world or decide the direction that history takes? The answer is probably no. What if there were a lot of people who would do

21、the same thing? History shows nothing but the collective will of the whole community. And that will surely be powerful enough to make a bigger difference.Go to your community or your school and spread your idea. Share your idea and save your aluminum cans with other people. One hundred people can sp

22、eak louder than one. And the money you make by saving cans can be multiplied by one hundred times. And if more people join in the cause around the world, an even larger difference can be made , and more people in need will enjoy the benefits.8Whats special about the new idea?AIt makes profits. BIt s

23、aves resources.CIt benefits the poor. DIt involves cleaners.9What can we infer from paragraph 2?ADirty cans do not sell well. BYou decide who receives the money.CA hundred cans weigh about 3 pounds. DThe recycle center is conveniently located.10What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 pro

24、bably refer to?AA great individual or event. BThe direction history takes.CThe collective will of people. DThe neighbourhood you live in.11Which of the following does the writer want to tell us?AMany hands make light work. BKill two birds with one stone.CDont put the cart before the horse. DNo man c

25、an do two things at once. Chinas historic 23-day Change 5 mission has not only obtained precious rock and soil samples from the moon, but has also brought back a group of seeds that traveled the furthest in the nations agricultural and forestry histories. More than 30 kinds of seeds, including that

26、of rice, oats etc., were placed inside the multi-module Change 5 spacecraft and orbited around the moon for about 15 days.Scientists wished to check what would happen to the seeds after being exposed to extraterrestrial (地外的) forces in lunar orbit and also hoped that they could develop beneficial mu

27、tations (突变). This mission offered good opportunities to scientists, which enabled them to deepen their studies on the effect of cosmic rays on the growth and evolution of life on Earth.Space-based mutation breeding refers to the process of exposing seeds to forces such as microgravity, vacuums and

28、cosmic radiation during a spaceflight and then sending them back to Earth for further observation and planting. Researchers observe and examine several generations of plants grown from space-bred seeds and investigate their mutations-some are positive and desirable while others are negative. Those w

29、ith positive mutations will be kept and analyzed, and will be introduced to farmers after their certification and approval.Space breeding can generate mutations faster and more conveniently than ground-based experiments and can bring about some desirable traits that are otherwise hard to introduce.

30、Compared with natural or conventionally bred types of plants, space-developed versions with positive mutations usually feature higher nutritional content, greater annual yields, shorter growth periods and better resistance to diseases and insect pests.China conducted its first space breeding experim

31、ent in 1987, using a satellite to carry seeds into space. Since then, hundreds of kinds of seeds and seedlings have traveled with dozens of Chinese spaceships. Space breeding has helped to produce more than 200 new types of mutated plants in China that have been approved for large-scale cultivation,

32、 ranging from grains to vegetables and fruits. The Change 5 robotic mission returned 1,731 grams of lunar rock and soil to Earth, marking a historic accomplishment 44 years after the last lunar substances were taken back.12Why were the seeds placed inside Change 5?ATo pick out the fittest for mutations. BTo understand extraterrestrial forces.CTo study the intensity of cosmic rays. DTo expose them to a special environment.13What do we
