22、The breaking news of Mo Yan's Nobel Prize in Literature on Thursday evening soon aroused public curiosity of the 57yearold Chinese writer: Why was it him that was favored by the Swedish Academy?
Born in 1955 into a rural family,Mo dropped out of school and became a farmer when he was a teenager.He joined the military and devoted himself to writing after the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976).
Less than half an hour after the announcement,Mo's works turned to soldout status at China's major online book sellers.One lucky buyer wrote in an online comment: “Rushed to purchase,but to my shame,I have not read any of his novels.”
Although Mo was entitled one of the top domestic literature awards before the Nobel Prize,he is not the most popular novelist in China,in either the book market or in reputation.
Mo's novel “Big Breasts & Wide Hips,” translated by Howard Goldblatt,tells a story of a mother who struggled and suffered hardship and intertwined fates with Chinese people in the 20th century.His more recent work “Frog” more directly criticized China's onechild family policy,which helped control the country's population explosion but also brought tragedies to rural residents in the past 60 years.
“I think the reason why I could win the prize is because my works present lives with unique Chinese characteristics,and they also tell stories from a viewpoint of common human beings,which is above differences of nations and races,” Mo said on Thursday evening to Chinese journalists.Mo also said many folk arts originated from his hometown,such as clay sculpture,paper cuts,traditional new yearpaintings,have inspired and influenced his novels.
With more Chinese writers like Mo,the world could learn a more real China.Perhaps,this is another reason for the Swedish Academy's choice.
【1】What can we conclude from the second paragraph?
A.Mo's life experiences.
B.Mo's family life.
C.Mo devoted himself to writing.
D.Mo had a gift for writing.
【2】What can we infer from the passage?
A.Mo didn't got any national awards before he won the Nobel Prize.
B.Mo was the top novelist in China before he won the Nobel Prize.
C.Mo's novels have attracted many people to read.
D.Mo's novels are all based on his daily life.
【3】Which of the following have no effect on Mo's novels according to the passage?
A.Clay sculpture. B.Paper cuts.
C.Folk arts. D.Beijing opera.
【4】According to the passage,we know that________.
A.Big Breasts & Wide Hips' leading role is one happy mother
B.Big Breasts & Wide Hips criticized China's onechild family policy
C.Frog came out earlier than Big Breasts & Wide Hips
D.Frog shows benefit as well as shortcoming of one China's policy
23、Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) have found evidence of diverse life forms in the sediment (沉淀物) of an Antarctic sub-glacial lake (南极冰下湖) for the first time. The possibility that extreme life forms might exist in the cold and dark lakes hidden kilometers beneath the Antarctic ice sheet has attracted scientists for decades.
Direct sampling of these lakes from the inside of Antarctica continues to present major technological challenges, however. Recognizing this, scientists from BAS have been searching around the withdrawing edges of the ice sheet for sub-glacial lakes that are becoming exposed for the first time. This is because parts of the ice sheet are melting and withdrawing at such fast rates as the temperature rises at the poles.
The group targeted Lake Hodgson on the Antarctic Peninsula, which was covered by more than 400m of ice at the end of the last Ice Age, but now has a thin covering of just three to four meters of ice.
The lake was thought to be a severe environment for any form of life, but the layers of mud at the bottom of the lake represent a time capsule storing the DNA of the microbes (微生物), which have lived there for thousands of years. The scientists took samples of the mud from the bottom of the lake. The top few centimeters of the mud contained current and recent creatures which live in the lake, but once the samples reached 3.2m deep, the microbes most likely date back to nearly 100, 000 years ago.
“We were surprised at the high biomass (生物量) and diversity. This is the first time microbes have been identified living in the sediment of an Antarctic sub-glacial lake,” leading author David Pearce says. “And it indicates that life can exist in environments we would consider too extreme. The fact that these creatures have survived in such a unique environment could mean they have developed in such unique ways, which would be exciting discoveries for us. This is the early stage and we now need to do more work to further investigate these life forms.”
【1】What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?
A.All parts of the ice sheet are melting and withdrawing at fast rates.
B.There are major difficulties in taking direct samples of life in the lakes.
C.That extreme life forms exist near the surface of the lake has attracted scientists.
D.Scientists have first discovered the edges of the ice sheet of the sub-glacial lake.
【2】Why did scientists choose Lake Hodgson to do the research project?
A.They found mud layers with microbes at the bottom.
B.It is regarded as a very difficult environment to live in.
C.It has much more varieties of life forms.
D.Its covering of ice is now very thin.
【3】What can be inferred from the microbes at the bottom of the Antarctic sub-glacial lake?
A.The scientists don’t fully know how the microbes have developed.
B.With the temperature rising quickly, the microbes will no longer exist.
C.The top few centimeters of the mud contained the DNA of the ancient microbes.
D.The microbes living deep have proved to date back to about 100, 000 years ago.
【4】What is the text mainly about?
A.Scientists have been searching for diverse life forms in an Antarctic sub-glacial lake.
B.Scientists have discovered life in the sediment of an Antarctic sub-glacial lake.
C.Scientists want to prove that life can exist in extremely bad conditions.
D.Scientists will further investigate creatures in the layers of mud.
24、When a fire broke out in my home in the middle of the night, I knew I'd do anything I could to save my family. The medicine that I take for my rheumatoid arthritis causes me to wake up in the middle of the night with a dry mouth. January 15, 2016, was no different. I, Indiana, US, awoke at 2:30am needing water.
I was walking back upstairs from the kitchen when I heard my bulldog , Rock. Whatever Rock was doing down there, it made enough noise for me to go to him. By the time I made it to the bottom of the stairs, he was running up, and he never came up the stairs, no matter what. I think that was his way of telling me, "We've got to go back up. "When I got to the top of the stairs, I turned around and saw a light on, but I didn't remember leaving one on. I walked downstairs again, and that's when I saw fire. I immediately shouted to my wife to wake up and get our three kids. I grabbed a knife and cut out the plastic that covered the window to the porch roof. I then pried open the window and kicked out the screen. I started screaming for help. But help never came. I got everybody out on the roof and threw a blanket out there so we wouldn't slip off. It was cold, January cold. Then I started screaming for help. But help never came.
Now, I'm scared of heights and have physical issues, what with my rheumatoid arthritis, but I couldn't let my family burn up. So I jumped off the roof. I didn't scoot to the edge; I just jumped and got the wind knocked out of me when I landed. I found our ladder, placed it against the house, and climbed back up to the roof. I wrapped my arms around my daughter and carried my nine - month - old with my teeth, by his little sleeper. Then I climbed down the ladder. Once on the ground, I had my little girl hold her brother, and I went back up to the roof to get my other daughter. Then I went back up again and got my wife. I tried to get my dog, but he just disappeared in the black smoke. I never saw him alive again,
I'm no hero. I'm just an ordinary person who'd help anybody. This happened to be the time when I helped my own family. I live to protect my family. Just likeRock—he lived to protect us.
