26、 Alice Walker makes her living by writing. And her poems, short stories, and novels have won many prizes for her. She was born in Eatonton, Georgia; she went to public schools there, and then to Spelman College in Atlanta before coming to New York to attend Sarah Lawrence College, from which she graduated in 1965.For a time she lived in Jackson, Mississippi, with her lawyer husband and small daughter.
About Langston Hughes: American Poet, her first book for children, she says,“ After my first meeting with Langston Hughes, I promised I would write a book for children someday. Why?

I will always be thankful that in his warmth he fulfilled my deepest dream (and need) of what a poet should be.”
“To me he is not dead at all. Hardly a day goes by when I don’t think of him or speak of him. Once, just before he died, when he was sick with the flu, I took him a full basket of oranges. The joy I felt in giving that simple gift is undiminished (没有减弱) by time. He said he liked oranges, too.”

27、Kids and science seem to be made for each other!
The basic science is a combination of thought and experiment called the scientific method. It’s where you start with an idea, create a way to prove or disprove your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically (逻辑地) and carefully. These important thinking skills can be used in many areas of study. To give a child practice with these thinking skills is like giving vitamins (维生素) to a developing mind.
One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are easy to be interested in science. Because much of science is hands-on, it attracts most children. Nothing makes a child sit up and take notice like the “WOW!” of a great science showing.
Science opens doors to many subjects at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language-math! So science encourages children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. Thus studying science lends itself easily to studying history. And after you do an experiment, you need to write a lab report. Therefore, writing becomes an important part of science.
Science is the basic thing for much of our life. The science of farming shows how our food is produced; biomedical science keeps us healthy; even our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breathe with the help of science! When we prepare the next generation (一代) of voters, creators and policy makers, it is important to make sure they are not only comfortable but also good at science.

A.usually has no time for other subjects.
B.is likely to learn many other subjects well.
C.is usually bad at such subjects like history.
D.usually loses interest in other activities.
【4】Which of the following statements would the author agree with?

28、Heart disease is the most common cause of death in the United States. Over a million people each year will have a heart attack and 25% will die before they get to the hospital or in the Emergency Department.【1】Prevention is the best way so it does not damage your heart and limit your ability to enjoy life. Simple ways might help reduce your risk:Don’t smokeThis means that you should stop smoking as soon as possible if you already smoke, and if you live with a smoker , you should put limits on the smoker.【2】Get moving【3】Find a form of exercise you enjoy enough to want to do it regularly and stick to it. If you have health issues that limit exercise, see your doctor for suggestions and make sure you begin with a program that will not be too challenging for you to keep with it.【4】Make sure you follow a heart prevention diet, even if you don’t have anysymptoms (症状) of heart disease.【5】You should eat a high-fiber, low-fat diet rich in fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Meats should be lean (瘦的),and fats should be limited to heart healthy fats such as olive oil. Sugars and processed foods should be limited, and fruits and vegetables should make up a large part of your daily meals.

29、Researchers at the University of Scotland have discovered a protein that can influence viruses developing and even can control cancer. Now the fight is on to fully understand how it works in the hope of turning the laboratory research into a treatment.
The protein is called Hira. Technically it is a histone(组蛋白)complex, but it is easier to understand in terms of what it can do. Three years ago Dr Taranjit Singh Rai and colleagues at the Beatson Cancer Institute and Glasgow University reported that Hira could possibly suppress the division of cells that causes cancer. In the course of that research, Dr Rai found out something unusual. In the lab they have established that the Hira protein has a role to play in the anti-viral fight, thus, making it have a fundamental role to play in fighting against cancer.
The trick in using it to fight diseases may lie in increasing Hira levels in our cells. “I think what researchers might be interested in is how we can increase levels of this protein to deal with the viruses better, Dr Rai said.
Dr Rai has led an international study and support has come from Cancer Research UK and the results are published in the journal Nucleic Acids Research. But there is a major concern that the research is still limited to the laboratory.
It is going to take some time, probably years, before this work can move out of the lab and into clinics and hospitals. But the researchers are excited Hira will one day be the basis of a new approach in medicine.
【1】What does the underlined word “suppress" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

【3】What is the researchers' attitude to the future of Hira?
A.Cautious.
B.Optimistic.
C.Disapproving.
D.Doubtful.
【4】What's the text mainly about?
A.A new way to use the protein.
B.A new approach to improving the division of cells.
