called

me

in

from

the

yard.

“Would

you

please

go

to

the

store

for

me?

I’m

ready

to

makecakes,

and

there

isn’t

enough

yeast

(酵母).

Take

a

quarter

from

my

little

change

16.〞I

foundGrandma’s

wallet

and

put

the

quarter

in

my

pocket.I

was

soon

in

the

little

general

store

that17

our

farming

community.

“Mr.

Jenkins,〞

I

said,“Grandma

needs

some

yeast.〞

Mr.

Jenkins

set

three

cakes

of

yeast

on

the

counter.

His

eyes

shone,

and

he

18

at

me.

“And

what

else

do

you

need?〞

I

knew

what

he

meant.

I

was

always

allowed

to

pick

a

penny

candy

when

I

came

to

the

store

with

Grandma.

“How

much

19

do

I

have

from

a

quarter?〞

I

asked.

“Seven

cents.〞

Mr.

Jenkins

replied.

I

thought

20

that

quickly.

I

would

have

a

nickel

and

two

pennies

back.I

was

sure

Grandma

wouldn’t

21

if

I

spent

one

penny.

and

if

she

were

here,

she

might

even

say

I

could

have

them

both.

The

22

I

looked

at

the

candy

display,

the

more

certain

I

became

that

I

needed

two

pennies’

worth

as

a

reward

for

coming

to

the

store

alone.

And

I

did

so.“Thank

you,〞

Grandma

said

when

I

23

the

yeast

on

the

table.

“Did

you

put

the

change

back

in

my

wallet?〞“Yes,

Grandma.〞I

replied,

hurrying

out

to

the

yard.

“I

hadn’t

really

lied

to

Grandma,〞

I

argued

with

myself.

“I

did

24

all

the

change

I

had.〞But

I

had

25

two

pennies

without

Grandma’s

permission(允許).

The

second

piece

of

candy

in

my

pocket

didn’t

sound

like

a

good

idea

any

more.

I

knew

I

had

lied

to

Grandma,

and

I

was

26

about

it.

Grandma

loved

me

so

much

that

I

couldn’t

bear

to

keep

anything

from

her.27

Grandma

took

the

hot

cakes

from

the

oven,

I

told

her

about

the

candy.

She

28

when

I

finished

my

story.

“I

know

just

29

you

feel,〞

she

said.

“We

all

feel

like

that

when

we’ve

done

30

deceitful

(欺騙的).

I’m

glad

you

told

me

about

the

pennies,

and

of

course

I’ll

forgive

you.〞

Grandma

hugged

me

tight,

and

suddenly

I

felt

as

though

a

big

stone

was

gone

from

my

stomach.16．A．handbag

spent

a

lot

of

time

making

a

large

shelf

for

my

cave.

I

found

a

big

tree

and

chopped

it

down.

This

took

three

days.

Then,

I

chopped

off

the

branches.

This

took

another

two

days.

After

that,

I

chopped

the

wood

away

from

one

side,

and

then

from

the

other

side.

This

took

more

than

one

month.

Altogether

it

took

forty-two

days.

In

England,

two

men

with

a

good

saw

could

have

made

six

of

these

shelves

from

that

tree

in

half

a

day.I

also

spent

a

lot

of

time

looking

after

my

corn

and

rice

crops.

I

had

to

protect

them

from

wild

animals

and

birds,

so

I

made

a

fence

around

them.

I

shot

some

of

the

birds

and

hung

them

up

near

thecorn.

After

that,

all

the

other

birds

stayed

away.

I

used

one

of

the

old

swords

I

had

taken

from

the

ship

to

cut

down

the

corn

when

it

was

ready.

I

was

very

proud

of

my

corn

and

rice

and

worked

hard

to

increase

my

crops.

A

few

years

later,

I

would

have

enough

corn

to

make

bread.

I

had

to

find

a

way

to

grind

the

corn

into

flour,

but

the

rocks

on

the

island

were

not

hard

enough.

I

finally

discovered

that

a

very

hard

piece

of

wood

would

do.

I

used

some

cloth

to

separate

the

meal

from

the

husks.

Not

having

anoven,

I

made

some

square

pots

with

lids

and

covered

them

with

hot

ashes.

This

baked

the

dough,

and

I

had

bread!

I

made

my

cave

bigger

again

to

hold

the

corn

and

flour

so

that

I

could

make

bread

whenever

I

needed

to.I

sometimes

wondered

how

I

could

get

to

the

land

which

was

visible

from

the

other

side

of

the

island.

I

went

to

the

ship’s

boat

that

was

blown

onto

the

beach

in

the

shipwreck.

However,

I

could

not

get

it

to

the

water.

It

was

too

heavy.

I

tried

many

different

ways

of

doing

it,

but

none

of

them

were

successful.34．From

that

the

off

his

MasterChef

Junior

run,

Evan

Robinson,

who

is

only

12

years

old,

is

using

his

kitchen

skills

to

raise

money

for

Puerto

Rico.

The

TV

show

contestant

wanted

to

offer

help

after

hurricanes(颶風)

hit

the

country

last

September.“I’ve

been

seeing,

all

over

the

news,

people

struggling,〞

Evan

said.

“They

can’t

get

fresh

water,

electricity;

they

can’t

get

really

anything.

I

know

I’m

just

a

kid,

but

I

think

if

a

lot

of

people

do

something,

a

lot

of

things

will

get

better.〞He

raises

money

by

baking

and

taking

online

orders

for

homemade

empanadas(餡餅).

He

started

cooking

on

a

recent

Friday

night.

By

the

next

Sunday

evening,

he

had

filled

orders

for

420

empanadas

——

roasted

chicken,

cheeseburger

and

vegetarian

——

getting

$18

for

six

empanadas

and

$30

for

a

dozen.His

mom,

Veronica

Robinson,

helped

him

send

the

empanadas

around

the

city.“We’ve

never

done

anything

like

this

before,〞

she

said.

“But

it’s

a

great

idea,

so

I

want

to

help

him

make

it

work.〞For

Evan’s

out-of-town

friends

and

supporters,

he

has

set

up

a

crowdfunding(眾籌)

page.Through

it,

he’s

hoping

to

raise

$1,

500

in

“virtual

(虛擬的)

empanadas〞.

This

is

because

he

heard

on

the

news

that

it

could

take

Puerto

Rico

years,

maybe

even

10

years,

to

recover(復(fù)原)

from

the

hurricanes.

And

he

said,

“Fruit

pies

are

up

next.

And

my

baking

will

continue

as

well.〞It’s

a

difficult

job,

especially

for

a

kid

with

homework

and

Boy

Scouts

and

friendships

to

tend

to.

But

he

doesn’t

seem

worried.“It’s

what

we’re

supposed

to

do.〞

he

said.

“I’m

a

human.

They’re

humans.

Why

shouldn’t

I

help

them?〞Indeed.38．How

did

Evan

help

those

struggling

in

Puerto

Rico?A．He

asked

his

parents

to

send

the

empanadas

around

the

city.B．He

continued

offering

a

lot

of

fresh

water

and

fruit

pies

to

them.C．He

donated

his

big

winning

prize

in

his

MasterChef

Junior

run.D．He

raised

money

by

selling

homemade

empanadas

through

online

orders.39．Evan

set

up

a

crowdfunding

page

because.A．he

raised

more

money

than

he

expected

for

the

people

in

needB．he

knew

that

it

could

take

Puerto

Rico

a

long

time

to

recoverC．he

wanted

more

and

more

friends

to

know

his

kitchen

skillsD．the

number

of

online

orders

was

beyond

his

expectation40．According

to

the

passage,

which

are

the

best

words

to

describe

Evan?A．kind-hearted

and

helpful

B．careful

and

confidentC．honest

and

hard-working

D．humorous

and

organized41．How

can

we

understand

the

last

sentence

in

the

passage?A．Friendship

is

important

in

our

lives.

B．It’s

difficult

for

humans

to

raise

money.C．We

should

help

those

who’re

in

need.

D．Everyone

must

do

something

unusual.DBats

are

the

only

mammals

that

can

fly

a

great

distance,

but

they

have

another

ability.

Many

bats

live

a

very

long

time

for

an

animal

their

size.European

researchers

are

studying

bats

to

understand

why

they

live

so

long.

They

hope

to

make

discoveries

to

fight

the

aging

process

(過程)

in

human

beings.Last

week,

the

group

of

scientists

said

they

had

found

important

biological

qualities

in

some

bat

species.

The

group

studied

bat

chromosomes

(染色體),

a

line

of

genes

found

in

the

nucleus(核)

ofcells.

The

scientists

were

most

interested

in

parts

connected

to

the

ends

of

the

chromosomes.

They

are

called

telomeres(端粒).

Telomeres

protect

the

ends

of

chromosomes,

which

shorten

each

time

a

cell

divides.

Scientists

believe

this

shortening

process

causes

cells

to

break

down.

.A

report

on

bats

was

published

this

month

in

the

journal

Science

Advances.Among

the

leaders

of

the

study

was

Emma

Teeling,

a

biologist

with

University

College

Dublin

in

Ireland.

Teeling

said

studying

long-living

mammals

that

have

developed

ways

to

fight

aging

“is

another

way

to

prove

the

molecular(分子)

basis

of

extended

‘health

length.’〞

She

added

that

studying

bats

made

scientists

able

to

learn

more

about

the

processes

“that

drive

healthy

aging.〞The

European

researchers

studied

493

bats

from

four

bat

species.

The

group

used

information

that

had

been

gathered

over

more

than

60

years.

Of

these

animals,

the

greater

mouse-eared

bat

generally

lived

the

longest,

an

average

of

37

years.The

scientists

said

this

and

a

related

species,

which

are

grouped

together

under

the

name

Myotis,

had

telomeres

that

did

not

shorten

with

age.

Another

Myotis

bat

holds

the

record

for

oldest

age,

reaching

41

years.The

scientists’

findings

suggest

that

these

bats’

cells

have

the

ability

to

keep

and

repair

their

telomeres.

This,

they

said,

helps

guard

against

the

aging

process.

Based

on

its

body

size,

a

bat

like

the

greater

mouse-eared

bat

would

be

expected

to

live

four

years.

But,

these

mammals

have

been

found

to

live

nearly

10

times

longer

than

that.The

scientists

found

that

Eighteen

of

these

are

bats.

The

only

exception

is

an

unusual

African

rodent,

the

naked

mole

rat.42．Which

D．They

do

some

species

of

live

a

long

time?A．Because

they

have

a

of

long-living

genes

out

of

the

cells.B．Because

their

cells

have

the

to

keep

and

their

telomeres.C．Because

they

have

another

ability

to

live

longer

without

any

food

or

telomeres

protect

we

are

talking

to

someone,

we

tend

to

change

someone

else’s

mind

to

our

way

of

thinking.And

we

may

often

find

it

difficult

to

do

that,

So

here

are

five

tips

on

how

to

change

someone’s

mind.The

first

one

is

never

to

turn

the

conversation

into

an

argument.

It

should

be

a

conversation

whereyou

show

your

opinions

and

the

facts

that

you’ve

collected.

By

showing

them

the

facts,

we

want

to

tell

other

people

that

we

are

right.

But

emotionally,

they

may

not

totally

agree

with

what

you

say.

So

when

you

are

trying

to

change

someone’s

mind,

try

to

keep

it

as

a

conversation

and

not

an

argument.The

second

tip

is

never

to

say

that

you

are

wrong.

If

someone

makes

a

statement

that

you

think

iswrong,

it’s

better

to

point

it

out

by

saying,

“I

thought

otherwise

but

I

might

be

wrong,

let’s

look

at

the

facts.〞

The

key

is

to

say

that

you

might

be

wrong,

not

that

you

are

wrong.

This

opens

up

the

other

person

to

look

at

the

data

again

and

shows

them

that

you’re

not

bullheaded

(頑

固

的)

and

that

you’re

not

going

to

change

your

opinion.

You’re

showing

them

that

you

are

open

to

new

ideas

and

this

is

super

important

in

changing

someone

else’s

mind

to

your

way

of

thinking.Tip

number

three

is

to

get

the

other

person

saying

yes

as

fast

as

possible.

You

may

begin

your

conversation

on

hobbies

that

you

guys

have,

something

that

they’re

crazy

about,

something

that

gets

them

saying

yes.

Because

the

more

that

you

get

them

to

say

yes

now,

the

more

likely

they

are

to

say

yes

in

the

future.

A

conversation

like

this

will

get

them

to

start

to

like

you

and

maybe

even

more

open

up

to

ideas

that

you

have.

It

builds

up

trust

between

the

two

of

you.Tip

number

four

is

to

let

the

other

person

do

a

great

amount

of

talking.

If

you

let

them

talk

more,

you’re

going

to

show

that

you

actually

care

about

their

opinions

and

ideas,

which

will

earn

their

respect

in

the

end.

By

listening

to

them,

you’re

going

to

create

a

friendly

relationship

and

build

trust.

So

when

you

express

your

opinions,

they

will

also

show

a

willingness

to

listen.

Never

interrupt

them

when

they

are

talking.

Just

listen

patienly

with

an

open

mind,

encourage

them

to

talk

even

more

and

more

so

that

when

it’s

your

tum

to

talk,

they’ll

listen

and

say

nothing.The

last

tip

is

to

let

the

other

person

feel

like

the

idea

was

theirs.

It’s

wiser

to

make

suggestions

and

let

someone

else

come

to

the

conclusion,

then

they

have

a

sense

of

pride

that

it’s

their

idea.

Giving

someone

the

data

and

letting

them

come

to

the

conclusion

let

them

feel

like

it

is

their

idea

and

they

are

proud

of

it.Title:
