21、   "Tiny tubes and filaments （丝状物） in some Canadian rock appear to be the oldest known fossils， giving new support for some ideas about how life began，" a new study says．

"The features are mineralized remains of what appear to be bacteria that lived some 3.77billion to 4.28billion years ago，" the scientist said． That would be older than some other rock features found in Greenland， which were considered to be the fossils last August．

The new results come from examining rock found along the eastern shore of Hudson Bay in Northern Quebec． The filaments and tubes， made up of iron oxide called hematite （赤铁矿），appeared within a rock type called jasper （碧玉）．

Matthew Dodd of University College London， an author of the study published Wednesday by Nature， said the living things lived in the seafloor where water was heated by a volcano． "Since the fossils are nearly as old as Earth， which formed some 4.5 billion years ago， the findings support previous indications that life may have begun in such an environment，" he said．

He and his colleagues presented several lines of evidence to support the idea that tiny tubes and filaments are signatures of past life． But two experts who've previously reported similar findings said they are not convinced．

"I would say they are not fossils，" Martin J． Van Kranendonk of the University of New South Wales in Australia， who reported the Greenland findings last year， wrote in an email． "The paper's evidence for a biological origin falls short，" he said．

Abigail Allwood， a NASA geologist， said the authors have produced one of the most detailed cases yet made for evidence of life in rocks older than 3.5 billion years． But "It's an extraordinary claim to make and you do need extraordinary evidence，" she said．

【1】What do Matthew， Martin and Abigail have in common？ ______

A. They have been studying rock features．

B. They are working in the same university．

C. They all made a contribution to the Greenland findings．

D. They have discovered the oldest known fossils in the same place．

【2】How does Martin feel about the new study？ ______

A. It confirms the biological origin．

B. It ignores the Greenland findings．

C. It needs more to convince people．

D. Its authors take ideas and words from his．

【3】What's Abigail Allwood's attitude toward Matthew's findings？ ______

A. Supporting． B. Disapproving．

C. Indifferent． D. Neutral．

【4】The new findings can make people know something about ______ ．

A. the process of fossil formation

B. how life started on the earth

C. how to examine rock and find fossils

D. how the earth formed about 4.5 billion years ago

22、   As a kid, Joanna Buckley wasn’t interested in science — until she had a chance to try it. That happened when she got a chemistry set for Christmas.

“Over the course of a few weeks, I’d completed every experiment. But in the process, I polluted my parent’s dining room carpet and burnt the kitchen worktop with the spirit burner,” she says.

Now science is Buckley’s job. She works in the chemistry department at the University of Sheffield in England. “I realize, first-hand, how important it is to have something or someone to show you why science is so great,” she says. Now the good news is that citizen science appears.

Citizen science takes the fun of experimenting a step further than Buckley’s at-home chemistry kit. That’s because these experiments are real, looking for novel answers.

“Compared with a one-off experiment, what’s cool about citizen science is that students get that this has a purpose,” Prunuske says. “Students want to do a good job, because they know scientists are going to use the new data in their own research.”

Long agrees. “Kids like that it’s real. And they like that it’s important, that it matters.” Citizen-science projects have made big discoveries. One found a previously unknown galaxy cluster （星系团）. Another project helped assess how much damage a big earthquake had caused in Japan. And one of the first citizen-science projects helped scientists learn where butterflies go every winter.

Some adults worry about teens losing interest in science. That’s one reason they hope that fun, exciting citizen-science projects can help them keep in touch, Long says. And she has some evidence that it’s working, “Last year, we did have a couple of students say, ‘I really think I want to be a scientist now. ’”

【1】What is the purpose of paragraph 2?

A.To support trials can make teens interested in science.

B.To prove failure is the mother of success in science.

C.To state Buckley has a talent for science.

D.To praise Buckley for her strong will.

【2】Why is citizen science more fun?

A.It carries out experiments frequently.

B.It must carry out experiments in groups.

C.It needs to seek for new solutions.

D.It demands to handle complex problems.

【3】What can we know from what Prunuske said?

A.She participated in the experiment.

B.She took pride in what students took up.

C.Citizen science is popular with students.

D.Scientists are willing to employ students.

【4】What is Long’s attitude towards citizen science?

A.Concerned. B.Supportive.

C.Doubtful. D.Unclear.

23、High school programs at the National Gallery of Art value depth over breadth, exploring original works of art through a single specific question or theme.

High School Studio Workshops

Single museum visit, 2.5 hours

These half-day art workshops include an in-depth examination and discussion of works of art in the galleries, followed by behind-the-scenes access to the Education Studio, where students create a related art project.

During the workshop, National Gallery of Art educators will encourage students to look carefully at works of art and then share their responses and develop theories based on their observations.

Students will have the opportunity to create a work of art in the studio inspired by what they have in the galleries.

Museum Marker: Exploring Art and Museums

The Museum Makers program explains how museums operate and what they have to offer. It gives upper-level high school students the tools to experience, understand and interpret art. Participants will gain an insider’s view of how and art museum works.

Students meet for seven Saturday sessions from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Completion of the program requires attendance of all seven sessions.

Creative Writing in the Galleries

Students will provide a voice for their personal responses to art through creative writing while looking at a selection of artworks in the galleries. Using close observation, group discussion, and personal reflection, they will be guided through exercises that use different writing forms, including free-form poetry.

A maximum of 30 students will be accommodated at each session.

【1】What can students do at High School Studio Workshops?

A．Discuss with artists about their works.

B．Get basic graining as an artist.

24、It isn’t just the beauty of vast natural wonders like the Grand Canyon that can take your breath away. You can find awe in everyday things. A new research, published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took “awe walks” felt more positive emotions in their daily lives.

In the study, 52 older adults aged 60 to 90 were divided randomly into two groups. They were told to take at least one 15-minute walk each week for eight weeks. Volunteers in the “awe group” were instructed in how to inspire awe as they walked. “We asked them to try to see the world with fresh eyes—to take in new details of a leaf or flower, for example,” Sturm says. For example, one participant from the awe group wrote about “ the beautiful fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy (嘎吱响) underfoot because of the rain”. However, people in the other group were less focused on the world around them.

In addition, participants were asked to take selfies (自拍) in the beginning, middle, and end of each walk. Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a “small self”, in that they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery. “When we feel awe, our attention shifts from focusing on ourselves to focusing on the world around us.” Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study. “We analyzed the intensity of their smiles in the selfies, and participants who took awe walks displayed greater smiles over time than those who took control walks. The former reported greater positive emotions in general, including more joy and gratitude.”

Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those people in the awe group, the researchers discovered. But walking more didn’t result in positive changes in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe, and not just in spending time exercising.

【1】Why is the example mentioned in paragraph 2?

A．To show the way of awe walks.

B．To state the benefits of awe walks.

C．To inspire participants to walk in awe.

D．To indicate leaves aren’t crunchy because of the rain.

【2】What can be inferred about the participants who take awe walks?

A．They smile more in a selfie.

B．They fill fewer photos with surroundings.

C．They pay more attention to themselves.

D．They show more appreciation and delight.

【3】What is the researchers’ attitude towards awe walk?

A．Objective.

B．Favorable.

C．Concerned.

D．Disappointed.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the text?

A．Awe Walks Promote Your Physical Fitness

B．Awe Walks Improve Your Positive Emotions

C．Frequent Walks Contribute to Emotional Health

D．Experiencing Awe Does Wonders for Everyone
