This was the first time we had been alone for more than a few hours since our oldest was horn four years ago.‎ What did we do on our short vacation? My wife read the first hundred or so pages of Toin Jones, a hook she has been meaning to read for ages. There was takeout and a nice long walk along the shore of Lake Michigan. Football was watched. But mostly? We slept, without worrying for once about whether a shrill voice might awaken us between the hours of 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. to demand a glass of water ("No, not that one, the Tinkerhell cup!"). We were too relaxed to do anything else.‎ As parents, we might tell other people that given the chance for even a short child-free break we would love to do some reading or take in a concert. This is not true. The truth is that what most of us really want is a chance not to think about how well we are using our time.‎ By admitting this, I realize the myth(错误的看法)of the brain-dead parents. Being brain-dead is what a parent like me looks forward to rather than something to be accused of. The novelist Lucy Ellmann recently provided a convenient summary in an interview:‎ You watch people get pregnant and know they'll be emotionally and intellectually absent for 20 years. Thought，knowledge. adult conversation，and vital political action are all put on hold. With a kiddo, you become a human koala while your old friends continue to have "interests". They do art and literature and science, you see, not diapers(尿不湿).‎ When you become responsible for the life of a very small person, nothing is more important than shouldering that responsibility. In that sense, parenting is a chance to reconsider the value of an extra 20 minutes in bed or a short phone conversation with an old friend. As to my wife and me, we spent the weekend eating steamed dumplings and drinking wine until we fell asleep.‎ We value the all-too-rare experience of being brain-dead.‎ ‎24. What did the author and his wife mainly do on the weekend?‎ A. They did some reading. B. They had a sound sleep.‎ C. They had a nice long walk. D. They watched a football match.‎ ‎25. What do he underlined words "put on hold" in paragraph 5 refer to?‎ A. In control. B. Forbidden. C. Abandoned. D. In vain.‎ ‎26. How does keeping kids change the author's life?‎ A. He begins to feel lonely. B. He is no longer responsible.‎ C. He becomes absent-minded. D. He hardly has his own time.‎ ‎27. What's the best title of the passage?‎ A. Tips for new parents B. Avoiding being brain-dead parents C. The myth of brain-dead parents D. How to steal time as brain-dead parents C In the future, we may not need to rely on human donations for life-saving skin grafts(移植).‎ That's the goal of Xeno Therapeutics, a biotech non-profit organization. The US Food and Drug Administration approved the group's initial application for temporary skin grafts removed from genetically modified(基因改良)pigs. This means that they can start testing pig skin grafts on people who have experienced severe burns.‎ Skin, the body's largest organ, plays an important role in blocking pathogens(病原体) from reaching our organs inside. It also helps the body keep a constant temperature. People with severe skin damage are at a high risk of developing deadly infections as a result of changes in temperature.‎ At the moment, the only skin grafts available in the US come from the dead people who have agreed to be organ donors, or patients who have gone through surgery to remove skin after large weight loss. These human skins used for grafts are not easy to find.‎ Xeno Therapeutics, which gets its name from animal-to-human transplants, has raised pigs ‎ that have skin remarkably similar to our own. Grafts from these pigs are therefore more likely to hide without being detected by the host's immune system-at least temporarily. The idea is that they could he used for immediate burn treatment，followed human skin graft treatment later.‎ ‎"I'd say that just like comparing a Coke with Pepsi, it would he hard to tell which was the human skin and which was the pig graft," said Xeno Therapeutics CEO Paul Holzer.‎ The non-profit organization has been working to conduct the clinical trials, which will only be testing the grafts' safety and tolerability in six patients with severe burns. Assuming the results are positive after a month, the grafts will need to pass through two more stages of testing before they can be approved for widespread clinical use.‎ Several other groups around the world are working to make animal organs suitable for clinical medicine. In Brazil, researchers are exploring using tilapia skin as temporary bandages for burn victims whose skin is regrowing.‎ ‎28. What's the aim of Xeno Therapeutics?‎ A. To make profit from the skin grafts. B. To apply pig skin on human patients.‎ C. To modify pigs genetically. D. To test people with severe burns.‎ ‎29. Why is skin important to us?‎ A. It acts as a protective layer for our body. B. It helps us recover from deadly diseases.‎ C. It prevents itself from being damaged. D. It keeps one's temperature changing.‎ ‎30. What is Paul Holzer's attitude toward the pig skin grafts?‎ A. Doubtful. B. Worried. C. Confident. D. Flexible.‎ ‎31. What can we know about the grafts?‎ A. Only skin removed from pigs can be used for grafts.‎ B. Brazilian doctors have also applied pig skin for grafts.‎ C. Animal skin has been used on six patients safely.‎ D. They won't be put to use until they pass tests.‎ D Giant, krill-eating whales could grow even bigger if the size and availability of their prey (猎物) could keep up, a new study finds.‎ Whales are the heaviest animals to have ever lived on our planet. These marine giants evolved from dog-sized four-legged land creatures and grew nearly 10,000 times bigger in the past ‎ 50 million years or so, according to Nicholas Pyenson, head of fossil marine mammals at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History.‎ Creatures benefit from having a bigger size in a number of different ways，whether it's not getting eaten by smaller creatures or having the ability to keep warm and travel great distances more efficiently. Still, some whale species are bigger than others, and they do have some limits to their size.‎ To find out what these limits are, researchers attached multisensor equipment to many types of whales. The researchers also assessed prey type and quantity using different methods. For baleen whale prey, they used acoustic(声学的)equipment to test the density(密度)of krill patches. For toothed whales, they looked at the size and quantity of squid(鱿鱼)beaks and otoliths(parts of the inner ear) found in the stomachs of beached whales.‎ Putting all the data together, they could determine how much energy the whales were likely to get back from the food. For toothed whales, the limiting factor seems to be the size of their prey. Sperm whales were found to feed mostly on medium-sized squid-possibly because there aren't as many giant squid in the ocean. Baleen whales, like blue whales swallow massive mouthfuls of krill or other small creatures. But these small creatures only appear in large concentrations for a few months per year in some areas, which may be the limiting factor for the growth of the largest whales.‎ A researcher said that it's not completely clear that baleen whales have finished growing. "Perhaps several million years into the future we'll see something even larger than a blue whale."‎ ‎32. What can we infer from the second paragraph?‎ A. Whales kept growing during evolution. B. Whales evolved from dogs on the land.‎ C. Whales used to he four-legged fish. D. The number of krill-eating whales would keep up.‎ ‎33. How do whales benefit from their size? ‎ A. They are more expert at traveling. B. They can produce energy more easily.‎ C. They have better chances to survive. D. They can be eaten by smaller creatures.‎ ‎34. How did the researchers carry out the study?‎ A. Testing the density of whales with acoustic equipment.‎ B. Using different methods for different types of whales.‎ C. Calculating the amount of food in baleen whales' stomachs.‎ D. Assessing the type and quantity of different whales.‎ ‎35. What may stop whales from growing even bigger?‎ A. The amount of food. B. The availability of equipment.‎ C. The size of their stomachs. D. The concentrations of the whales.‎ 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。‎ Sales motivation is about being able to get yourself or your sales team to do what needs to be done when it needs to he done. It's the ability to get yourself to take action whether you feel like it or not. In sales, one of the toughest aspects is having to deal with constant rejection. 36 ‎ ‎ 37 Guess what the lowest paid profession in the world is? That's right, also sales. Anyone can get a job that pays on salary or by the hour and make a certain secure amount of money every month but it takes a certain type of person to he able to control the amount he or she earns each year. The profession of sales is not for the weak minded person.‎ Mental toughness in sales is about the ability to have 99 people say "No" to you and still be fully confident that the 100th person will say "Yes". How many people do you think can go in and talk to the 100th potential client with the same enthusiasm and excitement that he or she had with their 1st prospect? 38 ‎ Sales is truly one of the few professions where a person with no educational background, with no talent or skills, can become one of the highest paid, most respected people around. What it really takes isn't brains, or a nice expensive suit, or even knowing the right people to begin with. 39 It's that sales person who will not stop making cold calls until he/she gets the amount of appointments necessary to achieve his/her goal.‎ ‎ 40 If you are in sales, then you can literally change your entire life around, from poverty and broke, to wealthy and fulfilled. If you are in a leadership position, realize that you have the opportunity to help change people's lives. Learn everything you can about motivation and there will be no limits to what you can achieve.‎ A. Not many at all.‎ B. Sales can be a life changing profession.‎ C. This is why most people fail to be a success in the field of sales.‎ D. The ability to inspire confidence in your team will make you a true leader.‎ E.
