12.Like people,plants experience stress.And also,like people,the response to that stress can determine success.
Bad environmental conditions,such as drought,flood,heat and other stresses,affect yields(產(chǎn)量) more than crop pests and diseases.We are trying to find a way to equip plants with the ability to tolerate environmental stress and maintain high yields,said Stephen Howell,a professor of genetics and cell biology.
Plant cells produce proteins (蛋白質(zhì)) and ship them to different parts of the cell.Under normal conditions,these proteins are folded into their normal,healthy structures as they are produced.When a plant is under stress,its cells produce poorly folded or unfolded proteins.Then a built-in system senses this and"sets off an alarm in the cell,"said Howell.
In response to the alarm,another protein (IRE1)starts working and creates a different process which activates (激活) the stress response genes whose products bring about defensive measures that help the plant survive.
"As it turns out,responses that are activated under stress conditions actually inhibit the growth of plants,"said Howell."This allows them to preserve their energy to survive the stress conditions."
For plants in the wild,this response is a help for survival,he said.In production of agriculture crops,however,this response reduces yields.
"You don't want crop plants to stop growing,"Howell said."You want them to continue to grow and produce even though they are under stress."
With the new understanding of this stress response,the next step may be to silence the alarm system,said Howell."What may be important is to disable some of these stress responses.That may make the plant more productive under stress conditions."
28.According to the text,an alarm in the plant cells is caused byB.
A.the folded proteins
B.the changed proteins
C.the defensive measures
D.the stress response genes
29.The energy preserved in the plants under stress conditionsA.
A.helps the plants to survive
B.helps to maintain high yields
C.keeps the plants growing
D.helps to produce proteins
30.The underlined word"inhibit"in Paragraph 5can be replaced by"A".
A.prevent 
B.start 
C.continue 
D.promote
31.How does Howell intend to make crop plants maintain high yields under stress conditions?C
A.By making crop plants keep more energy.
B.By making crop plants stop growing.
C.By making the alarm system stop working.
D.By making the alarm system respond quickly.

11.That woman carried a new blanket over her arm.Wordlessly,she gave it to me.
"Is it finished?"I asked.
She shook her head."No.It is ready,"she replied.I handed her the money and took the blanket.
"It is beautiful,so skillfully woven(編織),"I said to my mother."But what did she mean when she said it was not finished?How can it be ready if it is not finished?"
"I will tell you later,"my mother said,"but first I will take you to the Navajo village."
We went down to the village.A group of young men were making sand pictures.We walked through the whole village,watching the different things the people were doing.
It was not until that evening that my mother finally explained the Navajo woman's words.
"Did you notice anything about the things the people were making?"my mother asked.
"What should I have noticed?"I looked at her and asked.
"Each thing the Navajo make has one small part that is not complete.The designs in their sand pictures are often not perfectly done,for example---the line of a circle may not quite close.If you look carefully at your blanket,you will probably find a stitch(一針)missing."
I took the blanket off,but it looked as perfect as any design could be.Then suddenly,I noticed that sure enough a stitch was missing!
"But why do the Navajo intentionally leave some tiny part unfinished?"I asked.
"They believe that when anything is completed or finished,it means the end has come--it will not be perfect until then.Then too,with a circle,they believe that they must leave a pathway for the bad spirits to run away and the good spirits to come in.So,often,they do not make the line close."
28.The blanket the author receivedB.
A.was poorly woven.B.made her think a lot.
C.cost her a lot of money.D.was finished,but not ready.
29.Why was the author shown around the village?C
A.To buy more things made by the Navajo.
B.To make friends with some of the Navajo.
C.To have a deeper understanding of the Navajo.
D.To look for the woman who sold her the blanket.
30.Which of the following may the Navajo believe?B
A.A stitch in time is very important.
B.Life only becomes perfect when you die.
C.He who makes no mistake is a perfect man.
D.You must always try to make your life complete.
31.What's the main idea of the text?C
A.The Navajo are good at making things.
B.The Navajo are brave and hard-working.
C.A blanket tells a lot about the Navajo culture.
D.Skills are needed to do business with the Navajo.

8.As the job-hunting season is approaching,many graduates are suffering from anxiety.Worried about not getting satisfactory offers,some students have sleep problems,or even lose their appetite (胃口).
According to a survey across several universities in Wuhan,over 72percent are worried about finding a Job.Students in the first one or two years are also uneasy about their job expectations,which contributes to spreading anxiety further.
Lang Lei,a business major from Renmin University,hoped to get a position in a large state-owned enterprise.But when it turned out that things wouldn't be so easy,Lang became concerned."I began to worry,"said Lang,who has now changed to more realistic goals."Sometimes It was impossible for me to stop worrying.I had to talk about it on and on with my friends."
Others feel anxious while waiting for interview results.Mo long,a senior software engineering major at South China Normal University,said,"For a day or two,I couldn't help but keep thinking about how I performed in front of the interviewers,how well I answered their questions,and whether they would consider giving me a chance in the end.".Mo was even unable to focus on other things as his apprehension grew.Often he just wanted to grab a phone to call the Human Resources Department,but he didn't have their number.
Wen Fang,a well-known educator in Beijing,advises students not to be misled by the surveys and reports about the job market."Unemployment rates are not linked to personal chances of getting a job,which is mainly determined by his or her ability."
According to Wen,a mild degree of anxiety is normal,which can even be helpful.But if it constantly affects a student's normal life,one should pay more attention."Focus on adapting yourself to the needs of society,and never expect too much of your goals,"Wen added.

A.he couldn't get through to the number
B.he'd rather talk with his friends

15.Two graduates from Cambridge University in the United Kingdom found themselves about to graduate,yet with loans (貸款) to pay off.The pair decided to begin a strange,year-long project to battle their debt.
The men,Ross Harper and Ed Moyse,set up the site BuyMyFace.co.uk.last October as a way to get rid of the 80,000they shared as student loans.The idea behind the project was to earn money by selling their faces as advertising space every day for a year.Each day,they advertise a different business on their site by painting the brand's logo (商標(biāo)) or name on their faces and including a link to the company's site.After they paint their faces and publish them on the site,Harper and Moyse go out to highly populated areas such as music festivals and theme parks to maximize their faces'exposure.At this time,Harper and Moyse have advertised their faces for over four months without skipping a day and they're more than halfway to their goal.Though they first started charging a minimum of about USD   1.60 per company,the prices have risen as their popularity increased.For advertising space during the remainder of April,they range between USD   250 and   750.
Terri L.Rittenburg,associate professor of marketing at the University of Wyoming,said she had heard of people tattooing (紋身) logos on themselves before,but this idea is much better.According to her,at first the idea would be new and novel and attract attention,but she is unsure how long it would last.
At least for now,companies that have bought Harper and Moyse's faces have written positive comments on the pair's website."We had a three percent increase in website traffic (流量) on the very day and for two days more afterwards,"said an alcoholic beverage company.
71.Which of the following was most possibly taken from the website BuyMyFace.co.uk.?D

B.a(chǎn)ren't getting on well with their project
C.may close their site next month         
D.a(chǎn)lways work hard except on holidays

9.NEW YORK-Picking a Christmas tree takes most people a few minutes,or a couple of hours if they head for the woods.Dave Murbach needs 11months.
Almost every day of every year,Murbach's thoughts turn to vision of a perfectly shaped evergreen tree that will take everyone's breath away.
Murbach is the man responsible for finding the towering tree that makes more attractive Manhattan's Rockefeller Center each Christmas season.
"I'm always looking for a tree,"the center's chief gardener says."I look for it even when I go to the beach in the summer.It's like a homework assignment hanging over your head."
And if he gets it wrong,there's nothing hiding it.
"Every day it's up,400,000people go by,and 2.5million people watch the lighting celebration on television,"he says.
This year's tree,a 74-foot Nomy spruce (云杉) from Richfield,Ohio,flown to New York on the world's largest cargo plane,was lighted on December 2.
The arrival of the tree leads in the Christmas season in New York-a tradition dating back to 1931,when the workers building Rockefeller Center put up a small tree with ornaments (裝飾品).
The search for the next year's tree starts soon after the old tree is chopped up for wood chips and horse-jumping logs.
Murbach has three standards:The tree must be at least 65feet high,at least 35feet across and leaves dense (密集的) enough not to see through.
That's not as simple as it sounds.Though forests are full of evergreens,few get enough sunlight or space to fill out.And branches in snow regions often break under the weight,making trees unbalanced.
Back at the office,he sorts through hundreds of letters from people offering their trees,many addressed simply to"Mr.Christmas Tree Man."
Though there was occasional anxiety attack and sleepless night,Murbach knows the effect the tree has on people:"It's for bringing people together,attempting to bring together people you love.That's what I hope it sets off."But Murbach says he's always too worn out to celebrate Christmas.

41.Which is the correct order of the events in the passage?D
