26、The well-known Tsinghua University and Peking University held graduation ceremonies (典礼) on the same day this year. The presidents of the two universities delivered excellent speeches at the ceremonies as they used words, phrases or ways of expression that are very popular on the Internet currently. At the same time, graduation speeches by other university presidents were also under the spotlight for the same reason. Their speeches were warmly welcomed by students as they contained many fashionable words today, such as “floating clouds” (meaning “too small and of little importance to mention”) and “gelivable” (meaning ”very helpful”) . In the speeches , these university presidents recalled campus life together with students and finally moved all the audiences. They were very different from the usual run of lectures.
Many university presidents have changed their regular manner of making speeches at graduation ceremonies from an advising and preaching (说教)mode to a more fashionable and funny way. They try to use those words popular among young people in their speeches.

Now, they use fashionable words in their speeches, reflecting they are starting to adopt more everyday attitudes to students. The use of these new expressions has triggered a heated discussion. It focuses on the question of whether university presidents should speak in an informal way at graduation ceremonies.
Supporters who are in favor of the university presidents, new manner of making speeches consider it good to build close ties with students by using the youth’s own words even during the formal ceremonies. Opponents argue the new ways have no practical value or significance for education but are merely to please those leaving university.

28、Yuri Gagarin became the first person to go beyond Earth’s atmosphere in 1961. As he spent 108 minutes in orbit, the Russian astronaut consumed a tube of beef-and-liver paste (糊状物) with a side of chocolate sauce. His American counterparts (同行) enjoyed equally unappetizing cuisine during their trips to the moon, but pureed (做成泥的) meat gave way to freeze-dried meals by the time the space shuttle first launched in 1981. Today, astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) also enjoy fresh fruit and vegetables sent from home.
An increasingly appealing space diet has ensured astronauts get more of what their bodies need. Life aboard the ISS, for example, is hard—a six-hour spacewalk can burn more than 2,000 calories—so it’s essential that astronauts consume enough food to do the job. And over time, zero gravity weakens the heart and other muscles, requiring anyone living in it to exercise regularly. “Flavor is the primary driver for most decisions surrounding food intake,” says Robin Tucker, an assistant professor of nutrition science at Michigan State University.
Floating freely can weaken the sense of taste and smell. Providing a variety of seasonings (调味品) helps with that. NASA also makes sure the Space Station has crew members’ favorite snacks. The menu includes goodies, like the occasional pizza during resupply flights.
However, deliveries won’t be possible on a month’s long trip to Mars, and refrigerators and freezers require too much room and energy to be practical. Given that vitamins and minerals in packaged meals slowly break down, NASA is researching how astronauts might grow vegetables. It also has experimented with something like a 3D printer that would combine powdered starch (粉状淀粉), protein, and fat with micronutrients, oil, and water to make tasty food. As humans go ever farther into space, such ideas will ensure they eat something healthier, fresher, and more acceptable than wet and sticky stuff squeezed from a tube.
【1】What does the author think of astronauts’ food before 1981?
A．It was too dry.
B．It was original.
C．It was unhealthy.
D．It was unappealing.
【2】What influences astronauts’ food consumption in space most according to Robin Tucker?
A．The food’s look.
B．The food’s taste.
C．The food’s smell.
D．The food’s nutrition.
【3】How might space flights affect astronauts?
A．They might become overweight.
B．They have to take in fewer seasonings.
C．They might have a weakened sense of smell.
D．They have to do more exercise than on Earth.
【4】What is NASA focusing on at present?
A．Preventing the breakdown of nutrients in food.
B．Sending supplies to the spaceships flying to Mars.
C．Enabling astronauts to feed themselves in space.
D．Increasing the volume of freezers on spaceships.
29、Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Does Failure Really Exist?
If you believe you have failed, then you have. If you believe you don’t have the ability to succeed, then you don’t. 【1】 The moment you decide to give up or stop working toward your goals, failure is born.
【2】
Most people give themselves an out without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the things get too rough or their energy dies down. Don’t do that! Instead, make up your mind to make your goal happen, no matter what!
【3】
It’s a good idea to set a general timeline, but remember that something will be beyond your control. You can never say exactly when your goal will be reached. If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure! Instead, get a general idea of when you’d like your goal to be completed. Then take it one day at a time and focus on making progress instead of reaching the finish line in as little time as possible.
【4】
Difficulties mean only one thing: it’s not time for your goal to be completed yet. That’s it! It doesn’t mean you failed; it doesn’t mean you’re weak; it doesn’t mean you’ll never achieve your goals. It simply means you have not done enough yet. You’ve got to keep moving forward and find a way over, around, or through the difficulties.
A．Never give up on yourself.
B．Failure only exists in your own mind!
C．That's exactly how failure makes us feel.
D．Don't believe in a clear finish line for goals.
E．Work hard towards your goal, and you will be likely to get good results.
F．Be sure that you don't see difficulties as failures.

The Forbes list, now in its eighth year, identified 74 people – one for every 100 million on the planet –whose actions have the most impact across the world.

Unfolding events in the White House, as well as those in Aleppo and Europe, including Britain’s vote to leave the European Union, have made 2016 a significant year for Putin, who has helped 【10】 the global landscape.
