A third group experienced 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark a day,Then half the winter mice stayed in a winter cycle, while half switched to a summer schedule. The summer mice were similarly split. The mice raised in equal periods of light and dark were split into three groups, one of which stayed on the 12-hour schedule, one of which joined the winter group, and one of which joined the summer subset.After 28 days, it turns out the summer-born mice behaved the same whether they stayed on the summer cycle or switched to winter. But among the winter-born mice, those stayed in winter kept their previous schedule, while those that switched to summer stayed active for an extra hour and a half, which indicates that mice born and weaned in a winter light cycle showed dramatic disruptions in their biological clocks.The finding is the first of its kind in mammals, and it could explain why people born in the winter are at higher risk for mental health disorders including bipolar depression, schizophrenia and seasonal affective disorder.“We know that the biological clock regulates mood in humans,” said study researcher McMahon. “If an imprinting mechanism（運行機制）similar to the one that we found in mice operates in humans, then it could not only have an effect on a number of behavioral disorders, but also have a more general effect on personality.”41. How many groups of mice are there finally in all in the experiment?A. four B. five C. six D. seven42. What's the main idea of the text?A. The biological clock regulates mood in humans.B. people born in the winter are at higher risk for physical health disorders.C. Being born in the winter has a negative effect on people's mental health.D. The length of light will influence the behavior of the mice.43. The underlined word "split" can be replaced by ? （Line 2, Paragraph3）A. divided B. torn C. hit D. ended44. Which group of mice has changed their behavior after the experiment?A. The group born in the winter and staying in the winter.B. The group born in the winter and switching to the summer.C. The group born in the summer and staying in the summer.D. The group born in the summer and switching to the winter.45. Who is the appropriate reader of the passage?A. a job hunter B. a student in the universityC. a newly-married couple D. an experienced dentistBFebruary 4, 2020 saw the take-off of a new rising NBA star- Jeremy Lin.Among professional basketball players, Jeremy Lins background is not typical. He graduated from Harvard University, which sends few players to the NBA, and he is the only Chinese-American NBA player. But when you watch him on the court, there is no doubt that he belongs there. He moves with speed and grace that demonstrate years of faithful practice, which is fueled by a love for basketball.Lins enjoyment to basketball actually began in Taiwan. When Lins father moved to U.S., his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son, introducing him to the game at the age of five. The young Lin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun.In high school, Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA. When he applied for college, he was not offered a single sports scholarship. However, after his admission to Harvard ,he was offered a place on its college basketball team.During Lins time at Harvard, his basketball career began to speed up. He scored 1,482 points, making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history.When he graduated, no professional teams offered Lin a contract, but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League. He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors.At first, playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement. He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years. But slowly, the excitement wore off and was replaced by anxiety. In a few very difficult months, he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up.But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream, so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come, Then his moment arrived on February4, 2020,on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight.Aftet that,he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory.The Associated Press called Lin “the most surprising story in the NBA.” Knicks fans developed the nickname for him “l(fā)insanity”（林發(fā)瘋）.Time magazine released its 2020 list of the 100“Most Influential People in the World”, Jermy Lin included.46.

In order to reduce air pollution and oil­shortages, automobile manufacturers have announced their plans to develop hybrid vehicles (混合燃料汽車) for the Chinese market. Toyota's hybrid car Prius will be ready to drive in China this week. Let's have a look at the new car.Any vehicle is a hybrid when it combines two or more sources of power. Hybrid cars run off a rechargeable battery and gasoline. Hybrid cars have special engines, which are smaller than traditional gasoline engines. They run at 99 percent of their power when the car is cruising (勻速行駛). A specially designed battery motor provides extra power for running up hills or when extra acceleration is needed.Step into a Prius, and turn on the engine. The first thing you notice is how much quieter it is than a traditional car. At this point, the car's gasoline engine is dormant (休眠). The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24 km/h. If you stay at a low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no gasoline being used, and no waste gas gives off.The onboard(車載的) computer makes the decision about when to use a gas engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two. If you go over 24 km/h, when you step on the gas pedal (油門), you are actually telling the computer how fast you want to go.The electronic motor recharges automatically using a set of batteries. When driving at high speed, the gasoline engine not only powers the car, but also charges the batteries. Any time you use the brake, the electric motor in the wheels will work like a generator and produce electricity to recharge the batteries. As a consequence, the car's batteries will last for around 200,000 miles.51. The author writes this passage mainly to_.A. teach people how to drive a hybrid carB. introduce a new kind of “green” carC. show how to save their gasoline when driving a carD. announce plans to develop hybrid vehicles for China52. The first sentence probably refers to _.A. there will be more and more green land in ChinaB. China is still young and lacking experienceC. China's new cars are combinations of different green modelsD. China has started producing environmentally friendly cars53. Which of the followings is NOT true?A. The hybrid cars reduce air pollution and oil­shortages.B. The car's gasoline engine doesn't work until it reaches about 24 km/h.C. This kind of car is completely controlled by an onboard computer.D.A specially designed battery motor provides extra power when needed.54. What is the most important feature of hybrid cars?A. They are powered by both a rechargeable battery and gasoline.B. They are much quieter than traditional cars.C. They only use 99 percent of their power to run up hills.D. They have smaller engines than traditional gasoline ones.DBEIJINGPharmacologist Tu Youyou has become the first scientist on the mainland to win America's respected Lasker Award for her discovery of a new approach to malaria (瘧疾) treatment.The 81­year­old was presented with the medical prize by the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation on September 23, 2020 in New York.Tu, a scientist at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences in Beijing, was praised by the jury (評判委員會) for her “drug therapy (治療) for malaria that has saved millions of lives across the globe, especially in the developing world，” according to a statement on the foundation's website.In early 1969, Tu was appointed head of a government project that aimed to eradicate(消滅) malaria, and it was then that she began applying modern techniques with Chinese traditional medicine to find drug therapy for malaria.After detecting (檢測) 380 extracts (提取物) made from 2,000 candidate recipes, Tu and her colleagues obtained a pure substance called “Qinghaosu”， which became known as artemisinin in 1972.An artemisinin­based drug combination is now the standard regimen (養(yǎng)生法) for malaria, and the World Health Organization lists artemisinin and related agents in its catalog of “Essential Medicines”， said a statement from the foundation.The Lasker Awards are given annually to people who have made major advances in the understanding, diagnosis, treatment, cure and prevention of human diseases since 1945.Lasker Awards are known as “America's Nobels” for their knack (熟練技術) of gaining future recognition by the Nobel committee.

If you are a parent, teaching your children the value of saving and investing will benefit them the rest of their lives. Here's what you can do：Help your child begin to save. Open savings accounts for your children, and teach them how the bank adds interest to their savings that makes their money grow. Encourage your children to save a little from every bit of money they receive, such as allowances, birthday gifts, etc. You may even want to set up a matching program, contributing fifty cents for each dollar your child saves.Teach your child about stocks(股票). A child in elementary school can start learning about how businesses work. Once your child understands the basics, ask him or her to think about some of the businesses that might be good stock investments. Then use Morningstar Mutual Fund Guide(available at your library)to find a quality mutual fund that holds some of these companies, or a mutual fund that caters to children such as the Stein Roe Young Investor Fund. Many funds accept regular monthly investments as low as $50 a month, so these funds can be a good way to teach children about the stock market while saving for their college education.Encourage early IRA(個人退休金賬戶)saving. The new Roth IRA is a great way for children who are working in summers or after school t
