19.As I grew older,Dad was to build all sorts of things for me as I explored a variety of interests:magic tricks,a toy circus,neighborhood shows and science projects.
From as early as I can remember to the time I left home for college,I continued to come to him with a design or an idea,and he would figure out how to build it.
In fifth grade,a schoolmate and I wrote a puppet(木偶) show that we wanted to perform for our class.I made the puppet heads myself,and I made the costumes and curtains with Mon---who was as expert designing and sewing with cloth as my father was designing and working with wood and metal.With Dad I made the puppet stage,in our own invented style between kid and adult with me saying something like,"It has to be this high,and it needs to come apart and fold up so it can fit in the backseat of the car,and it needs to set up fast,and it needs to have different colored lights on top with switches you can reach to control them and a curtain you can pull from under it,even if you still have a puppet on your hand."Dad figured out how to make it all work,making plans as we went along.Then with the tools in his shop he built it,and I helped.
Dad also spent a lot of time out in the garage or in the driveway working on the family car.I don't remember that he ever took it to a professional auto-repair shop.Maybe to save money,but also because he could usually figure out what needed fixing,just by taking it apart and looking.Though not trained as an auto mechanic,he could look under the engine cover and take parts and pieces out,spread them on a tarp (油布) to catch the oil and figure out what was supposed to happen to the machine and then figure out what wasn't happening and then replace the worn-out part or whatever and then put everything back together again.

36.If you are the writer,you are supposed to write aboutBahead of the first paragraph.
A.father's achievement in mechanics
B.father's love and skills in mechanics

A.to tell how his father made a puppet for him
B.in memory of his parents
C.to describe to the readers his memories about his father

7.I fell in love with music from a young age and often sat down making a few songs of my own.What would life be like,I wondered,without a beautiful song?In 1992,I made two love songs to my darling wife and watched tears run down her face as I sang."Sam,"she said earnestly,"Your songs should be heard by more people,"
She got my ballads and started bothering various media people about me,her singing barber husband.Two radio stations took an interest and played the songs.After the programme was aired,I became known in our community as the Singing Barber.
The biggest surprise,however,was still to come.I received a call from a music promoter who offered me a long-term recording contract.He explained that he would be investing a lot of money to market my songs.I needed to be wholly focused on selling my records all over Australia.
    But I hesitated.
    My friends all told me to go for it.And Mary also thought I should do."Go,Sam.I'll manage with the family…it'll be OK."
I watched my daughter and son playing in the backyard.Soon they would both be in high school…and where would I be?I was so used to my family turning to me for love and support.If I were to start a singing career,I would not only miss them terribly,I'd also certainly miss out on watching them grow up.Signing this contract would put a huge gap between my family and me…and I couldn't bear it.My family was my life.So I refused the music promoter's offer.I'm still making music,I'm rich in love and I have no regrets.

56.When the author was offered the contract,most of his friendsC.
    A.envied him                           B.laughed at him
    C.encouraged him                       D.didn't believe him
57.Why did the author give up the contract?D

    B.Because the pay was not attractive enough.
    C.Because he wanted to care about his two kids.
    D.Because he didn't want his family life damaged.
58.According to the passage,we can infer the authorB.
    A.used to be a country singer                    B.preferred his present life
    C.went on the road to fame                       D.regretted giving up his contract
59.What does the author mainly intend to tell us?C

11.A recent finding has showed that blue-eyed people have already been living in Europe for at least 7,000years.
A man who lived on the Iberian Peninsula before Europeans became farmers probably had blue eyes but dark hair and skin,according to scientists who have arranged his DNA in order.This surprising combination of eye,hair and skin coloring may not have been unusual during his lifetime,but it is no longer seen among modem Europeans,reported by the journal Nature.
The man,a Neolithic hunter-gatherer known to scientists as La BranaⅠ,is of great interest to scientists because he offers a brief introduction to what was in Europeans'DNA before agriculture spread through the continent.Experts have theorized that certain genetic feature spread quickly among humans after they adopted the farming lifestyle.La BranaⅠshows that at least some of their predictions were correct.
The man's skeleton,along with that of a male companion,was discovered in 2006in a cave in what is now northeastern Spain.The site,known as La Brana-Arintero,sits about 5,000feet above sea level,and the cave provided a cold,refrigerator-like environment that preserved his DNA.
In the lab,scientists were able to remove enough DNA from a single tooth to reconstruct La BranaⅠ's entire genome (基因組).They compared it to the DNA of other ancient Europeans(including Otzi,the 5,300-year-old mummy found in an Alpine glacier) and determined that he was a closer match with hunter-gatherers than with farmers.
When it came to genes that would influence La BranaⅠ's appearance,the researchers found that their 7,000-year-old subject had versions of two skin pigment(色素) genes that are either very rare or nonexistent among Europeans today.Then they looked at other places in the genome that influence pigmentation(色素沉著)and found a mix of ancient and modern gene variants(變種).Taken together,La BranaⅠ's DNA"is likely to have resulted in dark skin pigmentation and dark or brown hair,"they wrote.
However,his DNA indicates that his eyes were most likely blue,the scientists found.This suggests that gene variants for light-colored eyes and skin did not spread together,they wrote,adding that La BranaⅠ's combination"of dark skin and non-brown eyes is unique and no longer present in contemporary European populations."Today,a blue-eyed person would typically have fair skin.To get some idea of whether La BranaⅠ's coloring was unusual for his day,the researchers will try to arrange in order the DNA of his companion,who has been named La BranaⅡ.
32.Scientists have carried out the research into La BranaⅠbecause they wanted to know
C.
A.today's Europeans'DNA             
B.the ancient agriculture in Europe.
C.European hunter-gatherers'DNA.
D.the correctness of some of their predictions
33.La BranaⅠ's skeleton was best preserved mainly because ofB.
A.the height of the cave                
B.the cold condition in the cave
C.the location of the cave              
D.the wet condition in the cave
34.Which of the following statements is TRUE?B
A.La BranaⅠ's gene variants spread together.
B.La BranaⅠ's DNA influences his appearance.
C.Today's blue-eyed person may typically have rough rather than fair skin.
D.La BranaⅠ's gene is completely different from the contemporary Europeans'.
35.The last paragraph suggests thatC.
A.La BranaⅡhas the same genome with La BranaⅠ.
B.Blue-eyed people were common in Europe 7,000years ago.
C.It's not certain that La Brana's appearance was common at that time.
D.BranaⅠ's combination of dark skin and non-brown is popular in contemporary Europeans.
