21、 Doctors have successfully kept a heart beating in a container for 24 hours, bringing hope to thousands of patients across the world in need of a life-saving transplant.
【1】 However, the "game-changing" device can preserve a heart up to six times longer than existing methods. It provides the heart with oxygen and vital nutrients, allowing more time to transport it.
The device, named ULiSSES, fits into a carry-on box, so hearts can be flown around the world. 【2】 And it is expected to cost under $ 100,000. University of Texas researchers have successfully tested on pig hearts, which are similar to ours.【3】
Dr. Rafael Veraza presented the findings on pig hearts at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Seattle.
"【4】 Many years later, it is done much the same way," Dr. Veraza said. "Donated hearts generally remain viable (可存活的) for around four hours using traditional preservation methods.【5】 Being able to keep a heart viable for 24 hours means you could transport it almost anywhere in the world, and this could save many lives."
A.It is expected to come into use soon.
B.The extra time could bring more hope to patients.
C.Usually, a donated heart can only last about four hours.
D.It works without being affected by temperature or air pressure.
E.The pig hearts remained viable for 24 hours after they were removed.
F.The first heart was transported more than 50 years ago by putting it on ice.
G.They plan to test it on human hearts in three months and put it on the market within a year.
22、 Washing habits have changed over the years. In the 16th century, most people had a bath once a month…if they were lucky. Up until the 1950s, it was once a week. Only just recently has the concept of daily showering become popular. But now, according to the New York Times, things are changing again.
The latest trend is known as “soap-dodging”. It basically consists of washing less, having fewer showers and using less soap. “I just wash my hair once a month now,” said Brett Dawson, a 32-year-old management consultant. “I have just one bath a week,” said Miriam Bayliss, a 28-year-old accountant.
And it appears to be growing in popularity. A poll last year for tissue manufacturer SCA found that 41% of British men and 33% of women don’t shower every day. And 12% of people have a proper wash just once or twice a week. Further research by Mintel found that more than half of British teenagers don’t wash every day-with many opting for a quick spray of deodorant (除臭剂) to mask any smell. But why?
There are a variety of reasons. Some claim that daily hair-washing is unnecessary. Commentator Matthew admitted that he hadn’t shampooed his hair for a decade. Others say they just don’t have the time. In 2008, the chemist Boots reported a 45% rise in sales of dry shampoo - a product that can be sprayed on hair between showers.
And some people want to help the environment. “I limit my showers to about twice a week,” said Nigel Hamerstone, a 42-year-old architect. “The rest of the time I have a sink wash.” he adds. “I believe that I’m as clean as everyone else, and it’s helped get my water consumption down to around 20 litres a day - well below the 100 to 150 average in the UK.”
So, will you be joining the new “washing revolution”?
【1】Before the 1950s, how often did people have a bath?
A.Never. B.Every day.
C.Frequently. D.Once in a while.
【2】What does “It” refer to in Paragraph 2?
A.Soap-dodging. B.Taking a shower.
C.Washing hair. D.The washing habit.
【3】What are the statistics in Paragraph 3 about?
A.Deodorant variety. B.British teenagers.
C.Bathing habits. D.Shower products.
【4】Why does Nigel Hamerstone limit his showers to twice a week?
A.To save his time. B.To avoid the trouble.
C.To save water resources. D.To cut the cost of living.
23、Learning doesn’t have to stop at the schoolhouse door. In fact, it shouldn’t. 【1】 It’s one thing to read a book about a foreign country; it’s quite another to go there and befriend its people, eat its foods and learn its language. 【2】 My husband Gabriel and I use it to engage with our love of history. We can’t travel to the past in exactly the same way we would go to a foreign country, but we can bring history to us by including as many of its details as possible into our daily lives.
【3】 Our house was built in 1888 and 1889. Very little had been added over the past century—although many things had been removed or replaced. Settling in was a long, slow process of bringing back systems and appliances which would have been standard at the end of the nineteenth-century.
Years ago, we started collecting everyday items from the past. We love things people like us were interacting with on a daily basis back in the Victorian(维多利亚时期的)era. Most textbook history focuses on extreme cases: politics, war, and Great Names. We’ve never been privileged to keep company with kings and presidents in the modern world, so we’ve always been drawn far more strongly to people we ourselves can relate to. We love simple stories of approachable people. 【4】
【5】 When we get them, most are worn out. Some people wouldn’t think twice about getting rid of such low-quality items. We fix them up and put them back to the use for which they were originally intended. As we interact with them, they become our teachers.
A．The best way to learn about something is to live it.
B．This technique can be applied to a variety of subjects.
C．By doing so we’ve created a life which is uniquely beautiful.
D．Currently I’m working on a novel set in the 1880s and 1890s.
E．Using the things they used helps us connect with their culture.
F．The antiques which make up our home are a working collection.
G．When people visit our home they say it’s like walking into a museum.
24、Storytelling provides children with a window to new worlds. 【1】 Without realising it, they are learning valuable life lessons through hearing an engaging, exciting story. Telling stories allows children to walk out of their familiar zone and experience different worlds, countries, and traditions. It can help develop an appreciation of the rest of the world.
Storytelling has also proven to help develop a sense of empathy as children are encouraged to put themselves in the position of the story’s major characters; to consider their actions and reactions and why they may have behaved in certain ways. 【2】
Reading to a child can increase their willingness to express themselves and communicate their thoughts and feelings. 【3】 You could also actively encourage children to ask questions and to talk about how they feel.
Storytelling also encourages children to be creative and use their imagination to picture the setting, the characters, and the story as it unfolds. It’s different from watching a film where children are given the imagery to accompany the words. 【4】
【5】 They show respect to the storyteller or others listening to the story. They learn to be more patient and to let others speak; they begin to understand that others may not interpret things in the same way they do.
A．Stories are one of the best ways of firing up curiosity.
B．Consequently, they are more likely to relate to others.
C．Through storytelling children are encouraged to listen to others.
D．They build the world within which the story is set for themselves.
E．Ask them to talk to you about the plot and characters in the story.
F．It gives them the opportunity to learn new ideas and information.
G．What starts off as verbal storytelling will lead onto reading books.
