2.Adam Zibluk is a 15-year-old Life Scout (童子軍) in Troop 70 In Newtown,CT.He was also recently the Troop's Senior Patrol Leader,the highest ranking boy in the troop!
Last summer,he,along with 15 other boys from the Troop completed scouting's greatest adventure,backpacking over 50 miles in 7 days in the wilderness at the Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico!
While Adam's Scouting achievements are impressive on their own,his time in Scouts has not always been so easy.Adam has hemophilla,a medical condition that can cause severe bleeding from even a slight Injury.And as a Boy Scout,spending much time out in the wilderness,It is quite common to get minor injuries.Because of his condition,Adam has had to miss some Scouting activities over the years.
The first few days of Adam's backpacklng in Philmont went smooth.But on the 3rd day,while unloading his gear at a remote campsite,he felt a sharp pain in his back.Adam told the adult leaders about his back and that he was starting to not feel well.They made the decision to call Philmont base camp to seek medical attention.
It was getting dark and rain threatened.Two doctors set out into the night on backcountry road?and then hiked in the last 1/2 mile to find Adam.They did some tests and decided to take him back with them to base camp.It was a tough moment for Adam and for the rest of the scout crew.While Adam returned to base camp,the rest of the boys backpacked on.To encourage Adam,they took one of his shirts with them and took photos of it along the way,which they sent to him.
A few days passed and Adam was feeling better.The doctors cleared him to return to the backcountry!Finally,Adam finished the trek with his crew.He is now one of the only Boy- Scouts with hemophilia to have ever participated in and completed a Philmont Trek.
What encouraged Adam to take on this challenge despite the risk? "I thought it would be fun and a good thing to do as long as I was prepared.And my parents have always encouraged me to not let hemophilia be the only factor in ANY decision.

3.As PhD research goes,Brian Wisenden was enviable,watching baby fish swimming swiftly through the clear waters in the Costa Rican tropical dry forest.By recording their growth and numbers,he hoped to look at their risks of being eaten.Instead,he witnessed something odd.Many groups were increasing in numbers.In these groups,some were smaller than others,suggesting they weren't siblings (兄弟姐妹).Wisenden had accidentally discovered that the fish,called convict cichlids,adopt each other's babies.Why would they do that,he wondered?
In the human world,we think of adoption as a selfless act.But in nature,its presence is puzzling.Taking on the burden of bringing up babies with no genetic link would seem to reduce an animal's chances of survival or at least provide no gain.Yet,adoption is surprisingly common in the world.
Take the eastern grey kangaroo.Between 2008 and 2013 Wisenden followed the fates of 326 baby kangaroos in the National Park in Victoria and recorded 11 cases of pouch swapping.The circumstances behind some of these adoptions aren't known,but four were straight swaps and another four occurred after a mother had lost her own baby.
How come?Before independence,baby kangaroos go through a period inside and outside their mother's pouch.Following out-of-pouch forays,mothers normally sniff their young before allowing them back in,but Wisenden's team suspect that during an emergency they may skip the sniff test,allowing a baby to quickly climb in before fleeing from danger.Once inside the wrong pouch,the young may fake the mother's odor,making them smell confusingly like her own progeny.So,poor baby recognition is the prime cause of "accidental" adoption.
Some of nature's adoptions are,actually,driven by young looking for better prospects.In burrower bugs,for example,females lay a nest of eggs close to those of unrelated bugs.Mother bugs tend their developing eggs before they hatch,then feed their babies nuts from weedy mint plants.Finding nuts is a competitive business,so not every mother bug gets her fair share.And if the delivery rate isn't up to scratch,clever young may abandon their mothers to join a better-fed group.That's similar to behavior in several species of gull whose babies,if poorly fed,may leave home in search of better parents.
The consequences of adoption following mistaken identity can be dire.The true babies of adopting mothers were abandoned.But it can have remarkable benefits,not just for adoptees but also for adoptive parents.
(1)It can be inferred from the passage that Wisenden's findings are
A.too weird to be witnessed
B.out of his own expectations
C.envied by his peer co-researchers
D.a(chǎn) sound proof of his research object
(2)Which is NOT the reason for adoption in the animal kingdom?
A.Baby animals' looking for better parenting.
B.Parents' failure to recognize their own babies.
C.Selfless adoption commonly seen in animal world.
D.Parents inability to provide enough food.
(3)The underlined word "vulnerable" in the fourth paragraph means
A.weak and easily attacked
B.naughty and easily hurt
C.independent and well-fed
D.fragile and poorly raised
(4)What will the author most probably talk about next?
A.The benefits for baby animals.
B.The benefits for adopters.
C.The consequences of adoption.
D.The consequences of wrong identity.組卷:0引用:1難度:0.7 -
4.In 2018 measles(麻疹) infected almost 10 million people around the world and killed 420.Countries that achieved high vaccination(苗接種) rates or had formerly eradicated the disease also failed to have narrow escape .
Fortunately,apart from troublesome measles,many inspirational global health stories happened in the last decade,new viruses,vaccines,and treatments were discovered,once again showing the significance of science.
Huge progress was made in virus research.For instance,a kind of virus named Medusavirus,which can turn an amoeba,a kind of single-celled living creature,into a "stone",was identified by Japanese scientists.The virus has one of the largest and most complicated viral genomes(基因組) that have ever been found.Besides,a new virus,Alongshan virus,was discovered in a group of patients in Inner Mongolia.Researchers also found for the first time that an insect RNA virus,the Providence virus,was able to infect plants and mammalian cells,which indicated that plants could serve as hosts of human viruses.
We also saw improvement in treatments and vaccines.Ebola virus is good case in point.According to the Royal Free Hospital in Britain,the drug MIL77,which had been developed by Academy of Military Medical Sciences,an institution in China,jointly with some other companies,was adopted to treat a Briton infected with the disease and helped her recover from the deadly virus.This has indicated China's capability of offering an economical and practical drug fighting Ebola virus worldwide.Furthermore,the Chinese and British medical research teams have worked on genome sequencing of the virus,making it possible to develop drugs and vaccines that are more effective.Therefore,Ebola is no longer a death sentence.
Thanks to investment in global supervision transnational partnership,and scientific research,many new viruses,vaccines,and treatments were successfully discovered in the last decade.But the journey will continue and much more needs to be done.For example,we need to have a deeper understanding of bow climate change influences the spread of infectious diseases
(1)What does the underlined word "eradicated" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.Got rid of.
B.Conducted research on
C.Lost control of
D.Come down with.
(2)What is true about the Providence virus?
A.It is a newly identified virus .
B.It has the largest viral genome
C.It was discovered in Inner Mongolia.
D.It can infect both plants and humas
(3)What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A.MIL77 is an effective Ebola vaccine.
B.No death will be caused by Ebola virus anymore.
C.China has made great contributions to fighting Ebola virus.
D.Genome sequencing of Ebola virus is too complicated to he carried out.
(4)What is the best title for the text?
A.Science keeps improving global health
B.A victory over deadly diseases
C.Global cooperation in fighting viruses
