18、 life, Jessica Long had no idea what her future would hold. The little girl born with Fibular Hemimelia would not only go on to be a 13-time gold medal-winning Paralympic champion, but she would inspire others to chase their dreams. Long was born in Russia, where she lived in an orphanage until her

19、parents adopted her in 1993. Soon after being adopted, she had to have her legs amputated （截肢）at only a year and a half. “It gave me a lot of freedom and movement, ” Long said. “But growing up was definitely really hard. From a very early age, I just decided that I was going to be unstoppable and I

20、wasnt going to let my legs hold me back. From that point forward, she didnt let anyone tell her what she was or wasnt capable of doing. She started doing gymnastics as a kid. Then, in 2002, Long found her sport for life: swimming!“I was the only girl with no legs on the swim team, “ she said. ”There

21、 were moments I struggled, but my teammates treated me like a friend. When I look back on my life and I think about anyone on that team, no one made fun of me for having no legs and they were so kind. “ Long defied （顶住）all odds and surprised everyone when she qualified at age only 12 for the Paralym

22、pics in 2004 in Athens. After four Paralympics, Long has won 13 gold, six silver, and four bronze medals. She has dozens of World Championship medals and has broken numerous world records throughout her career so far. But she didnt concentrate on winning awards or being famous. “I really just love s

23、wimming. Its important for any athlete to remember just why you started, ” she said. As one of the most decorated athletes in history, Longs goal is to just keep competing as long as her body allows. “Dream big, she said. “There are so many possibilities out there, so find your passion, be consisten

A sportsmans goal is winning gold medals. CNeuroscientists （神经科学家）now know that brain maturation （成熟）occurs far later than previous

27、ly thought. Great changes in brain are still taking place during young adulthood, especially in the regions that are important for planning ahead, expecting the future results of ones decisions, and comparing risk and reward. Indeed, some brain regions do not reach full maturity until the early 20s.

28、 Should this new knowledge make us rethink where we draw legal boundaries between kids and adults?Maybe. But its not as simple as it seems for two reasons. First, different brain regions mature along with different timetables. There is no single age at which the adolescent brain becomes an adult bra

29、in. Systems responsible for logical reasoning mature when people are 16, but those involved in self-regulation are still developing in young adulthood. This is why 16-year-olds are just as capable as adults when it comes to permitting informed medical papers, but are still immature in ways that redu

30、ce their criminal responsibility, as the Supreme Court has noted in several recent cases. Using different ages for different legal boundaries seems strange, but it would make neuro- scientific sense if we did it reasonably. Second, science has never had much influence on these decisions. If it did,

31、we wouldnt have lived in a society that allows teenagers to drive before they can buy beer. Age boundaries are drawn mainly for political reasons, not scientific ones. Its a pity that Neuroscience wont have much of an impact on politics although it is always correct. Children are so changeable in th

32、eir growth and how cultures understand child development is so different. It is pointless to try to determine the “right” age of maturation. The Dutch, for example, allow children to drink alcohol at the age of 16 but not to drive until they are 19. Even if I firmly believe legal decisions should re

33、fer to Neuroscience seriously and its a good idea to lower the drinking age and raise the driving age in the US, I recognize that the government might never accept it. 28. What can we learn about brain maturation according to the passage?A. All the brain areas become mature at the same time. B. Scie

34、ntists brain matures much earlier than politicians. C. The region in charge of logical reasoning isnt mature until 18. D. The time of brain maturation is not as early as thought before. 29. What is the authors attitude towards Neuroscience?A. Favorable. B. Skeptical. C. Indifferent. D. Intolerant. 3

35、0. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Is illegal for a Dutch boy to drive at the age of 16. B. The culture of the Dutch is much better than the USA. C. Its of great value to determine the right age of maturation. D. The influence of science on law and policy making is very big. 31. What co

36、uld be the best title for the passage?A. Should Children Learn from Capable Adults?B. Can Neuroscience Create Mature Scientists?C. Should Neuroscience Affect Law Decisions?D. Can Children Drive and Drink Beer Like Adults?DBoth lab-grown and plant-based alternatives are close to the taste and nutriti

37、onal value of real meat without environmental damage. The UN expects the world to have 9. 8 billion people by 2050. By that date, according to the predictions, humans will consume 70% more meat than they did in 2005. And it turns out that raising animals for human consumption is among the worst thin

38、gs we do to the environment. Depending on the animal, producing a pound of meat protein （蛋白质）with Westem industrialized methods needs 4 to 25 times more water, 6 to 17 times more land, and 6 to 20 times more fossil fuels than producing a pound of plant protein. The problem is that people arent likel

39、y to stop eating meat anytime soon. This means lab-grown and plant-based alternatives might be the best way to limit the damage. Making lab-grown meat involves getting muscle tissue from animals and growing it in bioreactors （生 物反应器）. The end product looks much like what youd get from an animal, alt

40、hough researchers are still working on the taste. Researchers at Maastricht University, who are working to produce lab-grown meat at scale, believe theyll have a lab-grown burger available by next year. One shortcoming oflab-grown meat is that the environmental benefits are still small-a recent Worl

41、d Economic Forum report says the emissions （排放）from lab-grown meat would be only around 7 less than emissions from beef production. A better environmental case can be made for plant-based meats from companies like Beyond Meat Foods, which use pea proteins, wheat, potatoes, and plant oils to mimic th

42、e real taste of animal meat. According to an analysis by the Center for Sustainable Systems at the University of Michigan, a Beyond Meat pie would probably generate 90% less greenhouse-gas emissions than a traditional burger made from a cow. 32. Why were lab-grown and plant-based meat introduced?A.

43、To eat more tasty and delicious meat. B. To reduce damage to the environment. C. To have as much protein as people can. D. To rid the world of severe hunger problems. 33. What can we learn about lab-grown meat from Paragraph 3?A. Making lab-grown meat involves killing animals first. B. Consuming lab

44、-grown meat can be realized next year. C. The cost of lab-grown beef is 7% cheaper than real beef. D. The damage of lab-grown meat to the environment is still big. 34. What does the underlined word “mimic” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Copy. B. Ruin. C. Change. D. Sell. 35. Where is this text prob

45、ably taken from?A. A textbook. B. An exam paper. C. A science magazine. D. A course plan. 第二节 （共5小题, 每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。A rhetorical question is a question that requires no reply, either because the answer is obvious or because the asker already knows the answer.
