8、school.BI love persimmons(柿子). The sweet, bright orange fruit indicates the coming of autumn in Iran, where I grew up. Persimmons cant grow just anywhere, but they do grow in California, where I now live. A few years ago, preparing to travel from San Francisco to Boston, I packed two persimmons, one

9、 of which I ate in the departure hall, waiting for boarding. At this point, a lady came up, asking where the fruit was purchased. She looked a bit disappointed when hearing it couldnt be gained at the airport and returned to her seat on the other end of the hall. “I can give the second persimmon awa

10、y”, I thought to myself. When I offered her the fruit, she at first opposed, but when I insisted, she was visibly glad and appreciatively accepted. I went back to my seat, happy to have made someone else happy, and that, as far as I was concerned, was the end of the story.Sometime during the flight,

11、 the lady caught up with me to thank me again. She shared that she had grown up in Japan, where there was a persimmon tree in the yard of her childhood home. She now lived in Boston, where she hadnt been able to find the fruit. The taste of this persimmon was precious to her, reconnecting her with m

12、emories of her relatives. Only then did the impact of this tiny act of generosity dawn on me. I am so moved to this day that the taste of the persimmon I never ate gives me more joy than all the ones I have eaten, combined. My experience is not unique. Research has shown that acts of generosity for

13、others make us happier than treating ourselves. A 2008 study by Harvard Business School professor Michael Norton and colleagues found that despite participants predictions to the contrary, giving money to someone else increased their own happiness more than spending it on themselves.4. Why was the l

14、ady so grateful? A. She found the persimmon special. B. She missed persimmons so much. C. She shared her experience with the author. D. She recalled the memories with her family.5.

15、 examples.D. By making proposals.6. Which of the following best describes the author? A. Modest.B. Caring.C. Mean.D. Demanding.7. Which of the following might be a suitable title? A. The Joy of GenerosityB. An Unforgettable Experience C. Giving is Better Than ReceivingD. The Impact of a Tiny ActCPAR

16、KINSONS DISEASE is a progressive disorder caused by the deaths of neurons(神经元) in parts of the brain. Symptoms include loss of motor control, mood disturbance and ruined sleep. Although it is incurable, early medical treatment can, however, relieve these symptoms and lengthen survival. Unfortunately

17、, the early signs of Parkinsons vary from person to person and there is no specific test at the early stage. A study published in ACS Omega, by Chen Xing and Liu Jun at Zhejiang University, in China, describes an invention which may be able to detect Parkinsons before the beginning of the symptoms.

18、The device in question is an artificially intelligent electronic nose.The two researchers set about building this nose in 2019. That was when they heard reports of Joy Milne, a nurse, who could detect people with Parkinsons from a distinctive smell they gave off. Researchers working with her found t

19、hat the sebum(皮脂) of those with Parkinsons has unusually high level of certain compounds. When these are acted on by cells which live naturally on the skin, the result is the mysterious smell.This can be detected using a laboratory technique called GCMS, which is promising. Unfortunately, it is stil

20、l too complex and expensive to be used daily in clinics. However, Dr. Chen and Dr. Liu invent a machine not much bigger than a toaster. It turns a sample of sebum into a steam that is then detected with sound waves. Different mixtures have different effects on the waves, and, with a bit of training,

21、 a computer loaded with an appropriate piece of artificial intelligence can learn to recognize the pattern associated with sebum from Parkinsons patients.The researchers tested their system on samples from 43 people with Parkinsons disease and 44 who were healthy. They found it could correctly ident

22、ify a Parkinsons patient as having the disease about 70%. That is not yet as good as Mrs. Milnes nose. If its reliability can be improved, its potential cheapness of the system may eventually prove an advantage for the early diagnosis of the illness. 8. Why do the researchers develop the intelligent

23、 electronic nose?A. To aid early diagnosis.B. To cut the cost of curing.C. To offer medical treatment.D. To replace former detecting ways.9. What is the key factor in making the intelligent electronic nose?A. Joy Milnes working ability.B. The distinctive smell of the neurons.C. The concentration of

24、certain compounds.D. The test about the people with Parkinsons.10. What does the 4th paragraph mainly tell us about the invention？A. Its inspiration.B. Its importance.C. Its disadvantages.D. Its working principles.11. Where is this text most likely from?A. A work record. B. A science magazine.C. A h

25、ealth guidebook.D. An advertising brochure. DAlthough it may be uncomfortable to admit, many parents play favorites among their children. Is that “bad” parenting? Having a favorite child might be the greatest taboo(禁忌) of parenthood, yet research shows that the majority of parents do indeed have a f

26、avorite.With plenty of evidence to suggest that being the least-favored child can fundamentally shape the personality and lead to sibling(兄弟姐妹) competitions, its no wonder that parents might worry about letting their preferences slip. “Data suggests that mothers, in particular, show favoritism to ch

27、ildren who have similar values to them and that engage more with family, over qualities such as being highly ambitious or career driven.” says Jessica Griffin, an associate professor at the University of Massachusetts.In one study, up to 74% of mothers and 70% of fathers in the UK have been shown to

28、 exhibit preferential treatment towards one child. Parents admitting having a favorite child showed an overwhelming preference towards the baby of the family, with 62% of parents who have several children preferring their youngest. Griffin says that a favoritism towards a youngest child is often to

29、do with the social and emotional skills associated with birth order as parents gain more practice in child-raising, they have a better idea of how they want to shape the childhood of the children, and what qualities are most important to pass on.“Children who grow up in families where they feel that

30、 they are treated unfairly may experience a deep sense of unworthiness,” says Griffin. “They might feel that they are unlovable in some way. But for most parents, their worries are misplaced. In fact, in most cases children might not even know that their parents prefer their sibling in the first pla

31、ce. In one study, a shocking four out of five claimed that their sibling was favored over them a seemingly improbable statistic. Griffin argues that its perfectly OK for parents to have favorites. “The important thing to remember is that having a favorite child does not mean that you love your other

32、 children less.” Griffin says. 12. What does the underlined word “slip” in second paragraph mean？ A. Cause trouble.B. Make no difference.C. Bring benefits.D. Become obvious.13. Why would most parents show favoritism to the youngest?A. Their social skills are much better.B. They want to pass on more

33、knowledge to it.C. Their childhood experience gives them more ideas.D. They have learned more about how to raise a child.14. How will the children act when they are treated unfairly? A. Compete with each other.B. Turn a deaf ear to it. C. Become self-denying. D. Be annoying.15. Whats Griffins attitu

34、de towards parents favorites among children?A. Uncertain.B. Objective.C. Indifferent. D.
