15、CProudly reading my words, I looked around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and Miss Lancelot stone-faced. I slowly raised the report, hoping to hide myself and burning to find out “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Quickly,

16、 I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never he

17、ard of that name before. As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which

18、 one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: flip ( 擲) a coin. Heads the commander, and tails the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.When anothe r classmate began his report, it all becam

19、e clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.” How could I know that she meant that George Washington?Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: no re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment

20、was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmasters office with my grandfather and the headmaster informed me of his appro

21、val that I could skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!28.What did the authors classmates think about his report?A. Puzzling. B. Controversial. C. Moving. D. Amusing.29.

22、r confused about the task?A. He followed the advice to flip a coin.B. He was a new comer to the school.C. He knew little about American history.D. The teachers instruction was unclear.31.

23、able C. He was allowed to redo the test. D. He was devoted to his studies.DImagine that the genome ( 基因組) is a book. The book consists of 23 chapters, with thousands of stories made up of paragraphs, words and letters on different levels. There are one billion words in the book, which makes it longe

24、r than 500 dictionaries. If I read the genome out to you at the rate of one word per second for eight hours a day, it would take me a century. If I wrote out the human genome, one letter per millimeter, my text would be as long as the River Danube. This enormous document, however, all fits inside th

25、e extremely small nucleus ( 核) of a tiny cell that fits easily upon the head of a pin (針尖).The idea of the genome as a book is not, strictly speaking, even a metaphor ( 比 喻). It is true to a great extent. A book is a piece of digital information, written in one-directional form and controlled by a s

26、ystem that translates a small alphabet ( 字母 表) of letters into a large dictionary of meanings through the order of their groupings. So is a genome. The only difference is that all English books read from left to right, while some parts of the genome read from left to right, and some from right to le

27、ft, though never both at the same time.While English books are written in words of different lengths using twenty-six letters, genomes are written entirely in three-letter words, using only four letters. And instead of being written on flat pages, they are written on long chains of DNA molecules (分子

28、). The genome is a very clever book, because in the right conditions it can both photocopy itself and read itself.32.What facts do you know about the genome?A. It is extremely long. B. It has 23 chapters.C. It is on the pin head. D. It is in the cell nucleus.33.In what sense is the genome like a boo

29、k?A.Both are read from left to right. B. Both have digital images.C.Both have a translation system. D. Both are grouped by subject.34.What can we know about genomes from paragraph 3?A.They are made up of DNA. B. They are written on flat pages.C.They are nearly of the same length. D. They can reprodu

30、ce each other.35. Why did the writer make a comparison of the genome to a book?A.To give different description B. To simplify the concept.C.To emphasize the similarities. D. To focus on the differences.第二節(jié)(共 5 小題；每小題 2.5 分，滿分 12.5 分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為 多余選項。Human beings learn technol
