27、materials 短文理解 59 Mr John has paid much attention to his weight reduction programs.

The year before that, he joined a health club. He

28、 exercised every day and ate less food. After three months however he began making excuses about why he couldnt go there more often.

Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership (伙伴关系 ) which is good for both of t

32、hem. You may see some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫 ) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they move the cause of discomfort. So although they can live without each other, they do bette

33、r together. Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners can not live without each other. This is so in the corals (珊瑚 ) of the sea. In their skins there are tiny plants which act as “dustmen“, taking some of the waste products from the corals and giving

34、in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe.

Wearing soft pajamas and with Tom, my stuffed monkey, in my arms, I felt no pressure at all. I named Tom after my uncle when I compared Toms long arms and legs to his. One night I

38、 ran up to Uncle Tom at a family party and told him I had named my monkey after him. His eyebrows wrinkled in confusion, then a chuckle (咯吱笑 ) escaped his lips. I guessed he didnt understand how important it was to me. Even if Uncle Tom didnt think my monkey was special, I certainly did. I dressed h

39、im in a white baby nightgown. My mother thought that Tom was the best-dressed stuffed animal in the world. Yes, he was certainly a fashionable creature. The strong cologne (科隆香水 ) I used on him years ago made him still smell “pretty“. For a long time, Tom went everywhere with me. He was my best frie

40、nd, and I told him everything. But when I turned twelve, I realized I was too old for stuffed animals. I thought people would think I was babyish, so I put him in the cupboard with the rest of my teddy bears and dolls. I begged him to understand why I was doing this, but at the same time I longed to

41、 talk to him again. It took me several years to realize that it was OK to miss Tom. I know now that maturity (成熟 ) doesnt only mean growing up and taking on more responsibility. It also means holding on to your childhood and acting young sometimes. 66 Which of the following is NOT true according to

44、 doesnt mean growing up and taking on more responsibility （ C） one should keep to his childhood and act young sometimes even when he has grown up （ D） human beings should be kind to animals 69 We can infer from the text that_. （ A） the writer is still a teenager （ B） the writer is now a middle-aged

45、woman （ C） Monkey Tom got angry for being left alone （ D） Uncle Tom has a monkey-like face 70 Whatever our differences as human beings are, we all think were more like the rest of the animal world than we realize. It is said that we share 40 percent of our genetic (遗传的 ) structure with the simple wo

46、rm. But that fact has helped Sir John Sulston win the 2002 Nobel Prize for Medicine. Sir John is the founder of the Sanger Institute in Cambridge, which was set up in 1992 to get further understanding of the human genome (染色体组 ). To help them do this, they turned to the worm. The nematode (线虫类的 ) wo

47、rm is one of the earliest creatures on planet earth. It is less than one millimeter long, completely transparent and spends its entire life digging holes through sand. But it still has lots to say about human life, and what can be done to make it better. What the worm told Sir John and his colleague

48、s was that each of cells in the human body is programmed like a computer. They grow, develop and die according to a set of instructions that are coded in our genetic make-up. Many of the diseases that humans suffer from happen when these instructions go wrong or are not obeyed. When the cell refuses

49、 to die but carries on growing instead, this leads to cancer. Heart attacks and diseases hke AIDS cause more cell deaths than normal, increasing the damage they do to the body. Sir John was the first scientist to prove the existence of programmed cell death. 70 Sir John Sulston got a Nobel Prize for Medicine because he has _. （ A） found that human beings are similar to the worm （ B） got the fact we share 40 percent of our gene
