It was about 10 years ago that Sandy noticed her mother，Pearl，had become quiet after she moved into a nursing home for patients of Alzheimer’s disease.
“We tried everything—photos，old stories—but nothing worked，” she said.“It was really hard for everyone to see how she had changed.” Then one day while Sandy was in a toy store，she had an idea: Why not give Pearl a baby doll so she could feel as if she were caring for something again And why not give one to all the elderly in the care center
As soon as Sandy gave Pearl the doll，her mother’s face lit up.“She started talking again and she never went anywhere without that baby，” Sandy said.“She took the ‘baby’ to the dining room with her and slept with her in her arms every night.The doll brightened her last years indeed.”
In the following 10 years，Sandy and her husband，Wayne，continued to buy dolls and hand them out to the elderly of care centers near their home every New Year.Now Pearl’s Memory Babies is a nonprofit organization that has contributed more than 300 to old people with Alzheimer’s disease at nursing homes since February 2018.
Last year，Sandy posted New Year’s photos on Facebook，all of which are about seniors reacted to dolls that she and Wayne sent to a local nursing home.The post was shared more than 210,000 times overnight.People gave almost $15,000 online.That helped the group buy many dolls.
“The dolls offer treatment and comfort，” said a nurse working at a care center.“Some old ladies cry when they get a doll.And they always rock and talk to their dolls.People with Alzheimer might lose their memories，but they don’t lose their ability to love.”
24．How did Pearl change after she moved to a nursing home
A．She felt bored.
B．She lost hope in life.
C．She hardly talked.
D．She forgot everything.
25．How did Pearl react after receiving the doll

D．She didn’t care about it.
26．What’s paragraph 5 mainly about

B．What Sandy did for her mother.
C．The rising needs for baby dolls.
D．How Sandy became famous.
27．What can be a suitable title for the text

B．How to Remove Alzheimer’s Disease
C．Daughter Helps Mother Recover Memory
D．Baby Dolls Cheer Up Alzheimer’s Patients

A Spanish project is attempting to 3D print coral reefs(珊瑚礁) to provide habitat for fish and protection for beaches and coastal communities at risk from rising seas and other damage.
Coral reefs are massively decreasing globally，and some scientists say we could lose 70%－90% of our reefs due to warming ocean waters.That has all kinds of serious consequences because a quarter of the world’s fish live in and around reefs.Reefs are critically important protectors of beach communities threatened by high waves and tides，and they support a massive amount of biodiversity.That led marine biologist Lizzie Fane and her co-founder Alfred Martel，a computer scientist，to start Coastruction，a non-profit organization.
“Even if you start on a small scale(规模)．..a square kilometer already，it could have a great impact，” Martel says.“It could really protect a coast，a beach，or an area where there is a community living and they need protection because the sea is rising.”
Being able to 3D print is important，because you match individual sites.Every location is different with different coral species.“It’s like everybody has a different house，” Fane says.“You can take into account habitat requirements of not just the coral but also the fish that live nearby.”
Their current technology can print various shapes.The result can be an amazingly natural-looking man-made rock with plenty of corners for both coral and other fish to attach themselves and make homes.
The Coastruction founders don’t think they can possibly meet the global demand，so their goal is to provide the tools—like the 3D printer—for local people and design the technology to use cheap and locally-available materials to create the artificial coral reefs.No high temperatures or chemical additives are required，and any loose powder or sand material not used in one print will be used in the next.The 3D printer works on-site，so there’s no transport of finished blocks required.
28．What does the underlined word “That” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The biodiversity of coral reefs.
B．The reduction in coral species.
C．The protection coral reefs provide.
D．The loss of global coral reefs.
29．What do Martel’s words imply
A．3D-printed reefs can hardly save oceans.
B．Small actions can make a lot of difference.
C．Small-scale production of reefs is a drop in the ocean.
D．3D-printed reefs fail to provide perfect fish habitat.
30．What do we know about the current 3D reef printing
A．It can just print regular-shaped reefs.
B．It can use any material to produce reefs.
C．It can create life-like reefs.
D．It can meet the global demand for reefs.
31．What is one goal of the Coastruction founders
A．Adding chemicals to reefs to make them colorful.
B．Putting their reefs into mass production.
C．Transporting finished reefs to where they are needed.
D．Adapting their technology to local conditions.
D
The first hibernation(冬眠) studies with human subjects could be workable within a decade，a European Space Agency(ESA) researcher thinks.Such experiments would make it possible for a science-fiction-like approach to long-time space missions that would see astronauts placed into protective sleep for weeks or months on their way to faraway destinations.
Experiments have shown that it’s possible to cause hibernation in otherwise non-hibernating animals，such as rats，and bring them safely back to life a few days later.“The rats receive a drug，a neurotransmitter substance(神经递质)，and are brought into a dark space with reduced temperature，” Jurgen Bereiter-Hahn，a member of ESA’s hibernation research group said.“It works very nicely，but the problem is that you have to apply the drug repeatedly to maintain the state，which could have damaging effects over the longer term.”
The hibernating astronaut would not only save the agency cost for water，food and oxygen.Astronauts would，most likely，wake up rather fit，without suffering many of the negative side effects of long-term bed rest or living in microgravity.In fact，studies show that the slowed-down cells of a hibernating body don’t get damaged by radiation(辐射)．Besides，research in animals suggests that bodies of hibernating astronauts might lose much less bone and muscle mass than the bodies of those awake in microgravity.Upon arrival，these hibernators would thus be fit and ready to start challenging exploration almost straight away after regaining awareness.
These protective qualities make hibernation a possibility not just for spaceflight，but also for medicine.Just like astronauts in microgravity，patients in long-term bed rest waste away quickly.Slowing life processes to a minimum would provide what scientists call a “bridge”，a period of time that would allow physicians to look for solutions without racing against the clock.Although most current hibernation research is funded by space agencies，scientists think that the first human to be put into this state of hibernation will most likely be an ICU patient.Once the first human survives and benefits from hibernation，things will likely start moving forward much faster.
32．According to paragraph 1，what do the hibernation studies mainly aim to do
A．Improve sleep quality in space.
B．Investigate hibernation mystery.
C．Promote manned space exploration.
D．Enrich science fiction writing methods.
33．What is a challenge in the hibernation experiments
A．Ensuring proper lighting.
B．Bringing animals back to life.
C．Maintaining low temperature.
D．Controlling possible side effects.
34．What advantage might hibernation bring to astronauts
A．It might help to keep physical fitness.
B．It might increase long-term bed rest.
C．It might decrease radiation contact.
D．It might raise mental awareness.
35．What is the last paragraph mainly about
A．The role of physicians in monitoring hibernating patients.
B．The possible application of hibernation beyond spaceflight.
C．The importance for increasing funds for hibernation research.
D．The need of human experiments in advancing hibernation studies.

How to Improve Leadership Quality
To be a good leader required a variety of qualities and skills，which can be gained through continuous learning and practice. 36
Ask yourself what kind of leader you are.
37 Doing this will enable you to identify the areas you need to improve，and make you more aware of how you act and behave.Start by asking yourself “what kind of leader am I？” Perhaps you are someone who leads by example，and doesn’t get too involved in other people’s work.Or maybe you are a leader who helps to solve problems，and takes a more active role.
Improve your communication skills.
Communication is perhaps the most important leadership quality，and one that runs through all of the other important qualities.One of the key factors to good communication is enabling positive dialogue on problems and solutions. 38 If you make the effort to listen to somebody，he will see that and come to think of you as someone he can talk to.
Take responsibility.
To set a strong example as a leader，it’s important that you take responsibility for your individual tasks and your team as a whole. 39 Besides，it means removing responsibilities from those who are unable to manage the tasks arranged to them.
Cooperate(合作) instead of competing.
If you are trying to be a strong leader，it can be attractive to try to inspire better work by creating a competitive environment among your colleagues.In fact，developing a more cooperative work culture often leads to more effective working and better relationships. 40 Any battle that arises in a competitive culture cost valuable time and resource to deal with.
A．Another is to be an active listener.
B．Here are some detailed suggestions for you to follow.
C．It is also important for you to praise your teammates.
D．Honestly examining yourself is key to develop your leadership skills.
E．It will encourage to trust others and help avoid working alone as well.
F．Exploring your strengths and weaknesses is the first step to improve yourself.
G．Being responsible means supporting your team members to complete their tasks.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Why have we bought groceries for Mrs Killinger？” Bobby asked his mother，Anna，as they walked back from the supermarket with a few extra bags for their elderly neighbor.He enjoyed helping his mother with these tasks，but they had never bought anything for any neighbor before.
“Honey，Mrs Killinger is now having trouble walking around，so I offered to bring her a few things from the supermarket，” Anna explained as they climbed up the wooden steps to Mrs Killinger’s house and rang the doorbell.
“Oh，but she could get a wheelchair and move around，” the boy commented as if it was the most straightforward solution in the world.
“It’s not so easy to adapt to a wheelchair at an older age，honey.Also，Mrs Killinger doesn’t have money to buy one right now，” Anna explained，and Bobby pursed his lips in thought.
Mrs Killinger answered the door，and invited them for some coffee and cookies.Bobby noticed how slowly she moved，and then an idea formed in his mind.He told the older woman and his mother about it，and they smiled at him.Neither of them thought Bobby would do it.
That’s why Anna was surprised the following day when Bobby had made several ads.“Mom，can you add your phone number here？”
“Oh，honey，I don’t know if you could raise enough money for a wheelchair，” Anna explained.She didn’t want him to be heartbroken if no one called or he couldn’t raise much money.
“Well，at least，I can say that I tried to help，” Bobby said with a bright smile and eager look.Anna nodded and added her phone number to the ads.
In his ads，Bobby offered his “services” which included helping to shop，mowing lawns，keeping company，and walking dogs.He also listed the prices of his services，which made Anna smile.He honestly just wanted to help.
“Let’s go and hang them up！” he cheered，grabbing his mother’s hand and going outside.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Anna helped him put up the ads around the neighborhood.
Within three days，Bobby earned the money needed for a wheelchair.

Mona Lisa，one of the treasures in the Louvre Museum in Paris，is a well-known example of Leonardo da Vinci’s extraordinary paintings.
In the painting，a beautiful woman is sitting elegantly with an unsearchable smile，which is considered to be one of the most mysterious smiles in the world.Some people think she smiles because of her kindness while others think she smiles because of sadness.In my view，whatever her smile means，the fact is that she’s graceful and particular.Not only is the background of this great painting beautiful but it (also) emphasizes the beauty of the woman.
In conclusion，it is a blessing that we could enjoy such a wonderful painting.
