26、What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today’s leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.
In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days.But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death.Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever.But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs(器官). The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on—in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.
It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.
【1】According to the passage,human death is now mainly caused by _______.
A.diseases and aging B.accidents and war
C.accidents and aging D.heart disease and war
【2】In the author’s opinion, today’s most important advance in technology lies in _______.

【3】Humans may live longer in the future because _______.
A.heart disease will be far away from us
B.human brains can decide the final death
C.the basic materials of cells will last forever
D.human organs can be repaired by new medicine
【4】We can learn from the passage that _______.
A.human life will not last more than 120 years in the future
B.humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells now
C.much needs to be done before humans can have a longer life
D.we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells
27、 When stress affects your sleep on a nightly basis, it sets you up for a terrible insomnia (失眠) that forces you to turn to sleeping pills.【1】
※ Target （把…作为目标）the enemy
“Every night a couple of hours before bed, sit down and make a list of all the problems you have to deal with,” says Donna Arand, director of Kettering Hospital Sleep Disorders Center. “Next to each item, write a solution or plan.” 【2】 That way, if thoughts of your problems arise as you’re trying to sleep, you can tell yourself, “I’ve got a plan and I’ll work on it tomorrow. “
※ Balance your work and activities
【3】 But a joint study of 314 workers found that workers with higher levels of enjoyable activities such as exercise, hobbies, and social activities, were able not only to come back from workplace stress better than their always-on-the-job coworkers but also sleep much better than others.
※ Deal with less
Four of the top ten stressors we experience are related to money.【4】 And how should we spend it? Given that, doesn’t it make sense that if we want less and are satisfied with less--smaller houses, and simpler forms of transportation--our stress levels will go down?
※ Give a nod to a nap （打盹）
It’s doubly unfortunate that stress makes it hard to get to sleep because, chemically speaking, the antidote （对抗手段）to stress is sleep. There is a way to deal with it.【5】 It’s true that one nap of up to 90 minutes between the hours of 1:00 and 4:00 P.M. during the day, will make people energetic again.
A.That’s by taking a nap.
B.Here’s how to step back from that state.
C.Now there is some advice on how to keep energetic.
D.When you ‘re ready for bed, put the list by the bedroom door.
E.It was reported recently that on-the-job stress has reached the worst levels.
F.How can we get it ?
G.Does stress always interrupt you?

Mamadou Diop has experience working with drones in the photography and health industries.Diop,called Dr.Drone on social media,is also one of the few people in Senegal who can repair drones.
But recently,he decided to take his knowledge of drones a step further.He is trying to build a drone made entirely in Senegal.Dion's goal is to use local materials and skilled Workers in Senegal to make the drones.He wants to prove that it is possible to make the technology in his home country.Diop says he has been able to communicate with other drone makers in France and China through the Internet.He has learned about their experiences to help him with his home-grown drone project.Diop plans to build his first locally-produced drone for use in the health industry.The drone will be designed to spread chemicals to prevent serious diseases.
However,not all of the necessary materials are available(可获得的）right now.One of the materials needed for Diop's drone is a carbon fiber that is not available in Senegal.He says he bought the material from China,and worked with local workers to shape the pieces for his drone.He got aluminum from a broken fridge to form part of the body for his drone.
Manadou Diallow is the owner of a photography shop who often uses Diop's drone services and supports his efforts to create the first"Made in Senegal"drone."There is not a large market for drones in Senegal right now,but need for the flyers is rising,"says Diallow.Diop welcomes the help,saying it is important to start making drones locallybefore foreign companies come in and sell them at much higher prices.

29、 The Disneyland parks are full of amusements, but they're also small cities that deal with deliveries, rubbish, and groups of visitors. People need to move from one place to another; they have to refuel and relax. To meet these requirements, the parks are well-equipped in reality. For example, Disneyland Park in California has a reliable transport system. In Walt Disney World in Florida, dustbins are spaced 30 feet apart, and all of them are emptied through underground tubes(地下管道).
None of this happened by accident. Walt Disney first had his idea for a play land in 1937. He first imagined the park’s buildings in a small size. He spent years collecting ideas by visiting other places. He studied Beverly Park in Los Angeles, including rebuilt historic villages. He visited Colonial Williamsburg, where employees dressed up and walked around… Then he organized a team of engineers and designers to plan and build a small world he called Disneyland. Walt Disney had blueprints(蓝图) drawn up, and tried to get the permission to break ground(破土动工).
In 1952, he showed his plan to the Burbank City government, for a 16-acre site between Griffith Park and his studio in Burbank. They didn't go for it. 'We don't want the carnival(嘉年华会) atmosphere, ' an official said. 'We don't want the loud music and screaming.'
The failure got Disney thinking even bigger. In 1953, he closed a deal to buy some land in Anaheim. Some designers thought it was too far, but Disney went ahead. It was like building a new city. Pipes had to be fixed. Railway track had to be laid around. Disney chose the hub-and-spoke(轴辐式) street pattern that many cities have. 'I want Disneyland to be a place where you can't get lost, ' he said. Designers and architects also diagrammed(图解) the rides and made models, while artists painted the background.
Finally in July 1955, the visitors came. If they picked up maps, they could see the results of years' planning: the shops and restaurants, the square, and the streets. The magic city had finally jumped off the drawing board and come into real life.
【1】What does the author want to show about Disneyland parks in the first paragraph?
A.The convenient environment.
B.The amusing tourist attractions.
C.The differences between the parks.
D.The visitors' common requirements.
【2】Why did Walt Disney travel to different places including Beverly Park?
A.To choose a place for construction.
B.To advertise his Disneyland Park.
C.To experience American culture.
D.To get inspired for his park.
【3】What led to the Burbank City government refusing Disney's application?
A.Upsetting noises.
B.Possible safety dangers.
C.Harm to the local environment.
D.Large areas for building the park.
【4】What kind of person is Walt Disney according to the passage?
A.Considerate and hard-working.
B.Stubborn but kind-hearted.

31、Directions: Complete the following passages by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
Hundreds of years ago, Charles Darwin predicted that facial expressions of emotion are 【1】. If you’ve ever seen an episode of the popular US TV drama Lie To Me, you will really understand facial expressions. The leading actor of the show, Dr. Cal Lightman has spent 20 years studying nonverbal communication and facial expressions, which allows him to point out other people’s studying nonverbal communication and facial expressions which allows him to point out other people’s 【2】 and on many occasions, to be skilled at tricking in order to get the truth.
Is there really much truth behind this science of 【3】 human emotions through expressions? Paul Ekman, a(n) 【4】 psychologist whose work focuses on mapping facial expressions, is Lie To Me’s scientific advisor and the following are some of his explanations.
Hand-to-face gesture indicates a lie.
Each micro-expression is unique to 【5】 specific emotions because the person is often unaware of doing it. But it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are lying when someone uses a hand to hide part of his face. The person could be holding back information but you may better consider looking at other more important clues rather than just the simple hand-to-face gesture.
A liar refuses eye contact.
People look away when they are thinking carefully and considering each word before it is spoken, not just when they are 【6】 an excuse. Oblique eyebrows are a very reliable 【7】of sadness and few people can make this 【8】 expression, so it is actually never faked.
Guilty knowledge technique is 【9】.
Lightman often uses the guilty knowledge technique, mentioning something that only the guilty person will know about and show a(n)【10】. This is often used in polygraph exams: “Was the person strangled, shot or stabbed to death?” Only the killer knows and is likely to respond physiologically when the actual weapon is mentioned.
