21、Spicy tomatoes could soon be on the menu thanks to the rise of gene-editing (基因编辑) technology, researchers say.

It is not the first time that experts have claimed the techniques could help develop fruit with unusual features: scientists have already been looking at changing the color of kiwi fruit and bettering the taste of strawberries.

But researchers in Brazil and Ireland say such methods could also offer practical advantages, with hot tomatoes offering a new way of harvesting the pungent (辣味的) chemicals found in peppers known as capsaicinoids (辣椒素)，which make food taste “hot”.

“Capsaicinoids are very valuable compounds (化合物): they are used in the weapons industry, they are also used for painkillers. and there are some researches showing that they promote weight loss,” said Agustin Zsögön from the Federal University of Viços a in Brazil, a co-author of a new article arguing for the benefits of engineering hot tomatoes.

Writing in the journal Trends in Plant Science, the researchers say peppers are difficult crops to grow and low productive. Worse still, it is tricky to keep the pungency of the fruits stable. By contrast, tomato production is high and the plant is well-studied. “You could produce the capsaicinoids in a more cost-effective manner,” said Zsögön.

Tomatoes and peppers developed from a common ancestor, but separated about 19 million years ago. “All these genes to produce capsaicinoids exist in the tomato, they are just not active,” said Zsögön. “Using gene-editing technology, it is bound to switch these genes back on in tomatoes, adding a kick to the fruit,” he said.

【1】Why are the tomatoes made hot by the researchers?

A．To test the gene-editing technology.

B．To enrich the variety of the tomatoes.

C．To make the tomatoes more delicious.

D．To explore ways to harvest capsaicinoids.

【2】In which of the following situations can capsaicinoids be used according to the text?

A．Feeling weightless.

B．Lacking sleep.

C．Having a headache.

D．Losing appetite.

【3】What is Zsögön ’s attitude to the gene-editing technology?

A．Unacceptable.

B．Uncertain.

C．Tolerant.

D．Confident.

【4】What’s the text mainly about?

A．An introduction to gene-editing plants.

B．Creating hot tomatoes by gene-editing.

C．Problems with capsaicinoid production.

D．The procedure of producing capsaicinoids.

22、   Dr.Teruo Higa was born on December 28, 1941 on Okinawa and grew up there. He studied agriculture and took his doctorate from the Agricultural Research Department of Kyushu University Graduate School. He became a lecturer in 1970 and has been professor of horticulture since 1982.

Dr.Higa is famous for creating EM technology.He created EM technology in order to address the problem of excess wastes and bad farming techniques in the present-day world. EM stands for effective microorganisms. It is a multi-culture of coexisting anaerobic and aerobic microorganisms. Microorganisms are the smallest complete units of life. They can exist independent of a bigger organism. Bacteria are considered microorganisms. They are constantly at work, some helping bigger organisms,and others bringing decay and bad health. These opposing processes of constructive and destructive forces are always ongoing, creating a balance. If the balance tips towards the destructive side, the host organism grows ill. lf it tips towards the constructive side, the organism experiences good health.

These organisms can be used in farming to create a good growing environment for all kinds of crops and animals. The process involves collecting human and animal waste products such as kitchen garbage and manure. This is then sealed into a barrel along with a certain amount of EM powder. The microorganisms then turn the waste into mulch, which acts as a great source of nutrients for crops and animals. Rice paddies that are treated with EM produce harvests that are much bigger than those of conventional farms. Moreover, EM rice paddies require less tilling and weeding than other paddies.

Dr.Teruo Higa's ideas have caught on around the world. One of his biggest successes was in North Korea, where his technology was used to create a record-breaking crop yield. EM helped many crops, such as corn, Welsh onions and Chinese cabbages in North Korea. For the impoverished nation, this was a godsend.

【1】Why is Dr.Teruo Higa famous?

D.He is a great farmer.

【2】Which of the following best describe microorganisms?

A.The smallest complete units of life.

B.Something that causes bad health.

C.Necessary for good health.

D.An unimportant part of farming.

【3】What do microorganisms do in the EM process?

A.They destroy waste products.

B.They cause ill health.

C.They turn waste into a useful mulch.

D.They decrease the size of harvests.

【4】What happened into North Korea?

A.It was a rich country.

B.They decided not to use EM technology.

C.Dr.Higa was not invited to the country.

D.EM technology led to a record-breaking harvest.

【5】What does the underlined word"impoverished"mean in English?

A.Rich. B.Poor.

C.Far away D.Large.

23、Every day, in all kinds of weather, thousands of men and women jog. Why has jogging — running slowly for long distances — become so popular? Most joggers begin because they hear it is a very good exercise. Jogging makes the heart stronger and helps people lose weight. It can also help them feel better about themselves.

Donald Robbins, who is forty two years old and works in an office, began jogging a few years ago because he felt he was too fat. At first he could only run about 100 yards. It took him three months to be able to run a mile. But two years later, he ran in a marathon over twenty six miles. Many joggers, like Donald Robbins, feel that if they can succeed in jogging, they can succeed in other things, and quite often this feeling helps them in their jobs.

Should you jog too? If you do, be sure to ask your doctor for advice. Jogging may be too much exercise for you.

Does jogging cost much? No, it costs almost nothing. But it is very important to have a good pair of shoes that are made especially for jogging.They protect your feet and legs from the shock of running on the hard surface.

How fast should you go? Jog with a friend and talk to each other as you run. If you have difficulty in talking, you're going too fast.

How far should you jog? Remember not to go too far too soon. In fact, you should walk, not run, the first few times. Then do some short jogs, but no more than what you can do comfortably. After that, increase your distance a quarter or half a mile every two weeks or so. Maybe in a few years, you can run in a marathon too.

【1】The article is mainly about______.

A. jogging as a sport   B. jogging as an exercise

C. jogging in a safe way   D. jogging as a way to the marathon

【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?

A. Jogging should be done in the early morning.

【3】Which piece of advice is NOT mentioned in the article?

A. Have a good pair of shoes.

B. Have a sports suit.

C. Remember not to go too far too soon at the beginning.

D. Ask your doctor for advice.

【4】Why is jogging so popular according to the passage?

A. It doesn't cost much.

B. One can start jogging at any time and in any place.

C. It is a very good exercise.

D. One can talk with one's friend while jogging.

24、A blood test that accurately predicts a patient’s likelihood of dying from heart disease or a stroke (中风) has been developed.

Researchers took samples of blood from 22,949 people and analyzed the levels of about 5,000 proteins within it. They then used machine learning to detect whether there was a link between the proteins that circulate in a person’s bloodstream and their risk of heart disease. The study identified a particular “protein signature” that accurately predicts the chance of suffering a heart attack, stroke or heart failure over a four-year period.

Currently, doctors assess the likelihood of patients suffering heart problems by looking at factors including weight, blood pressure, age and cholesterol (胆固醇) levels. However, blood protein analysis can provide more accurate clues to the state of a person’s health. The technology was found to be twice as accurate as existing tools at measuring a patient’s heart risk. The blood test could also provide a faster way of detecting whether patients’ existing medication (药物治疗) is working and helping to reduce their risk. Existing risk assessments struggle to do this.

The blood test was developed by SomaLogic, based in Boulder, Colorado. The company is also working with scientists at Imperial College London to help develop a blood test to detect cancer. Professor Elio Riboli said this could lead to widespread screening for many different types of cancers, which is not possible using existing techniques. His team will work with SomaLogic to analyze 15,000 blood samples from people who had developed cancer, comparing them with 10,000 samples from people who did not. The results will be used to establish whether there are protein markers that could indicate if someone is at risk from the disease.

In 2019, a trial began in Leeds to use SomaLogic’s technology to assess people’s risk of diabetes, and also the effectiveness of lifestyle changes in preventing the condition. Dr Michael Messenger, head of the Leeds Centre for Personalized Medicine and Health, said that it could help tailor treatments to individual patients. “Personalized medicine lets us take a deeper look at each person’s individual biology, so we can better understand what the right advice or treatment, at the right time, might be.”

A．About 5,000 proteins exist in people’s blood.

B．Different methods were adopted in the research.

C．Altogether 22,949 people volunteered for the study.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Tom was born and grew up in Milan. Until he was 13 years old, he never wanted to leave his hometown. But last year, Tom’s father’s investment went bad， wiping out the family and sending his parents to prison. As a teenager under 16 years old, Tom was forced to go to Newcastle in the northeast of England to stay with his uncle Lawrence.

Tom had a lot of difficulties in the new environment. He didn’t like the food in England. Nobody could forecast the weather in Newcastle. He had to start learning the second foreign language in his new school. Pocket money was not enough as usual. Almost every subject was a challenge for him. Most importantly, he had no friends. It seemed nobody knew him and he knew nobody in the school.

On an early summer evening, when Tom was going home alone from school as usual, a man called him from behind. Tom turned around and saw Andy, his PE teacher, standing in front of him.

“You know, the school will have a swimming competition next month. There will be all kinds of races. Will you participate?” Andy asked.

Tom took a look at Andy with doubt and answered, “You sure? Me? No, I won’t. I can swim, but I’m slower than a snail.”

Andy smiled and then said, “Yes. Indeed. You are, in breaststroke(蛙泳)，in backstroke, and in butterfly, but not in freestyle. So join the freestyle race! 200-meter freestyle is the game suitable for you.”

Tom was speechless at that moment. He had never known someone in the school was observing him and caring for him.

“I don’t think I can win anything.” Tom was still a little puzzled.

“But you may get more recognition and consequently you can make some friends. That is more important than prizes,” Andy responded immediately.

Having hesitated for a while, Tom agreed to have a try.

注意:

1.续写词数应为150左右;
