Fang Li, a 70-year-old director and producer, hit the headline with The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru.
Late in September 1942, the Japanese military transported over 1,800 British prisoners of war from Hong
Kong to Japan by ship. In the waters off Dongji Island, it was torpedoed (被 鱼 雷 击 中 ) by a US
submarine.
第 4页/共 13页Fishermen from Zhoushan risked their lives to save 384 POWs. Fang was shocked. “How had we in China never
heard of the Lisbon Maru? We know of the Titanic, but no one here ever mentioned the Lisbon Maru.” This
mystery aroused Fang's curiosity, leading him to begin the search for the ship in 2016. During the journey, Fang
learned of 94-year-old Lin Agen, the sole surviving fisherman to have participated in the rescue, and of a
98-year-old British soldier, Dennis Morley, who survived the ordeal. “I t felt like a race against time . We had to
document their stories before it was too late,” Fang says.
Fang launched a search for more survivors and their families. He placed ads in British newspapers like The
Sunday Times and The Guardian. “People thought I was crazy — “Who even reads newspapers anymore? they
said. But I knew that the elderly, like myself, still do,” Fang says. The campaign was a success, leading to BBC
Radio 4 inviting him on a show, which in turn connected him with 380 POW families.
On Aug 23, The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru premiered on Dongji Island, where the tragedy occurred. Fang
wrote on his WeChat moments:“We finally showed the documentary on Dongji Island, the very place where our
ancestors performed their heroic acts 82 years ago. I also received the honorary title of ‘Dongji Island Citizen’ —
a privilege I treasure deeply.”

B. He wanted to solve the mystery as soon as possible.
C. It was already too late for people in China to hear of the ship.
D. It was vital to document the story before the witnesses passed away.

Scientists have made an amazing discovery deep underground in South Africa. They found tiny living
creatures called microbes in a rock estimating to be 2 billion years old! This rock was found almost 50 feet below
the surface in a special place called the Bushveld Igneous Complex. This finding is very exciting because it shows
the oldest known living microbes found in such extreme conditions, much older than any other microbes found
before.
The leader of the research team, Yohey Suzuki, said, “We didn't know if 2-billion-year-old rocks were
habitable. Until now, the oldest geological layer in which living microorganisms had been found was a
100-million-year-old deposit beneath the ocean floor, so this is a very exciting discovery.”
The rock sample was about 1 foot long and came from an area known for having a lot of valuable minerals.
This area was formed when hot magma (岩浆) cooled down slowly underground. Because the rocks have stayed
mostly the same for billions of years, they created safe little spaces, or cracks, where microbes could live and thrive.
To make sure that the microbes they found were really from the old rock and not just something that got mixed
in later, the scientists used some special tools to study them. They used three different methods called electron
microscopy, fluorescent microscopy, and infrared spectroscopy to look closely at the microbes’ DNA and proteins,
and were able to show that the microbes were alive and that they had lived in that rock for a very long time.
Finding these ancient microbes helps scientists understand how life can exist even in extreme conditions. The
researchers hope that by studying these ancient microbes, they can learn more about how life began on Earth and
how it evolved over time. They are also curious to see if this can help them find signs of life on other planets, like
Mars.
28. Why was the discovery of microbes thrilling?
A. Because it proves the 2-billion-year-old rocks were inhabitable.
B Because it discovers the oldest known living microbes in the world.
C. Because it reveals the world deep under the Bushveld Igneous Complex.
D. Because it uncovers a 100-million-year-old deposit beneath the ocean floor.
29. What made it possible for microbes to survive?
A. The extreme weather. B. The melting magma.
C. The stable conditions. D. The diverse minerals.
第 6页/共 13页30. What does paragraph 4 mainly focus on?
A. The microbes they discovered. B. The discoveries they made.
C. The research methods they applied. D. The organisms they mixed.
31. What may these ancient microbes help researchers to learn in the future?
A. The inhabitability of the Mars. B. The signs of life in severe conditions.
C. The DNA and proteins of other species. D. The emergence and evolution of life.
D
Aspects of your personality can be revealed in a heartbeat, literally, a new study from Germany suggests. The
study identified heartbeat “signatures”— wave patterns in the heart's electrical activity —that were linked with
personality traits.
People with certain heartbeat signatures scored higher on tests of neuroticism (神经过敏) — meaning these
individuals tend to experience more negative emotions, such as anxiety and a depressed mood, and fewer positive
emotions, including happiness and cheerfulness.
The study involved 425 university students ages 18 to 33. The students completed personality tests, and had
their heart electrical activity measured using electrocardiography (心电图). “With this method, we have found
something that is perhaps more accurate, and more relatable, than many other measures of personality,” said study
researcher Stefan Koelsch, a professor of biological psychology at the Freie University Berlin.
The results suggest such heartbeat signatures may provide a more objective way to measure personality than
current methods, the researchers say. Personality is commonly assessed using questionnaires, but these may suffer
from bias — people may choose responses that they think are more acceptable for their gender, or they may
misunderstand their own traits.
Researchers may also be able to identify heartbeat signatures that are characteristic of certain emotional
disorders, such as depression, or of cardiovascular diseases, Koelsch said. Such signatures could one day help
diagnose these disorders, or identify people at risk for them, he said.
Previously, Koelsch and colleagues found a link between certain heart electrical activity patterns and people
with “cold” personalities, who tend not to show emotion. In the new study, similar patterns were seen among those
with high scores in neuroticism and low scores in positive emotion, like compassion and empathy.
Although Koelsch suspects that this type of electrical pattern is not particularly healthy, future research is
needed to confirm this. Eventually, Koelsch hopes to be able to see whether certain interventions, such as listening
to music or watching films, change emotional states and the heart's electrical activity, he said.
第 7页/共 13页32. What does “signatures” refer to in Paragraph 1?
A. The scores of neuroticism tests. B. People’s personality traits.
C. The researchers’ written names. D. The wave patterns of your heart.
33. What do researchers think about the common assessment of personality?
A. It is more objective and much healthier.
B. It is likely to be prejudiced and misunderstood.
C. It is based on heart electrical activity measures.
D It is more accurate and more relatable to people.
34. According to the study, what can be learned about “cold” people?
A. They tend to score lower in neuroticism tests.
B. They tend to suffer from cardiovascular disease.
C. They tend to be less compassionate and empathetic.
D. They tend to gain higher degrees in positive emotions.
35. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Heartbeats hint your personality traits.
B. Heartbeat signatures heal depression.
C. Heartbeats change your emotional states.
D. Heartbeats indicates the electrical activity.

How to Improve Math Skills
There’s no doubt that math is tough. By building up your skills and practicing every day, you can make math a
little less frustrating and have a higher chance of success. Use these tips and tricks during school, while you’re
studying.
Practice math in everyday situations.
___36___. For example, if a sweater that’s regularly $38 is on sale for 30% off, what is the sale price?
($26.60). Or if you need to double a recipe that calls for 3/4 cup of flour, how much flour will you need? (1.5 cups).
Or, if you plan to hike a new trail that’s 7 miles long and it takes you 20 minutes to walk a mile, how long should
you plan for your hike to take? (2 hours and 20 minutes).
Use mental math if you can.
第 8页/共 13页Doing math in your head can help you remember key concepts. ___37___. However, math basics like addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division are ones you can do in your head. If you come across an easy problem, do
it in your mind first before resorting to a calculator. If you’re worried about your mental math skills, you can
always double check your answer on your computer.
___38___
You can find tons of example problems online. If you’re going over a concept, look it up and try 2 to 3
problems on your own. Check the answers to figure out if you got them right, and study the concept again if you
didn’t. Your teacher might also be able to give you some extra example problems if you ask for them. ___39___
This will give you an overall sense of what you’ll need to do to find the solutions.
Teach math problems or concepts to someone else.
Learning by teaching someone is a great way to solidify concepts. Invite a friend or family member over and
explain to them what you’re doing and how you’re doing it. If you get stuck, review your notes or textbook again
until you can explain it clearly and concisely. Have your friend or family member ask you questions, too. ___40___
A. Seek help from your teacher.
B. Practice with example problems.
C. Math plays an important role in our life.
D. Make math part of your daily life to practice it.
E. Try to answer them as best as you can to really practice.
F. You’d better identify which skills and concepts you’ll need to solve the problems.
G. Some problems like geometry or calculus, require a pencil and paper to get started.

Benjy and I were working in the yard together one afternoon. It was during a summer between college terms, a
第 11页/共 13页time of uncertainty for my son. Benjy wanted to follow in my footsteps as a musician, but he was impatient for
success. Talented as he was, often he took up one thing and his passion faded. I ached for him and wished I could
say something.
Taking a break, Benjy looked around our 15 acres with its stream, its trees, and its rolling grass. “This place is
beautiful,” he said. “How did you get it?”
I had long expected Benjy to ask about this, so I told him the story of the land.
Gloria and I were teaching in a town where I had grown up. We wanted land so we could build a house to
welcome our first baby. I noticed a parcel south of town where cattle grazed (吃草). It belonged to a 92-year-old
retired banker named Mr. Yule, who owned a lot of land inthe area, but was selling none of it. He gave the same
speech to everyone who inquired. “I promised the farmers they could use it for their cattle.”
Nevertheless, despite being turned down so many times, Gloria and I persisted in visiting him at the bank,
where he still spent his days. Then one day, after we claimed our names and intention, Mr. Yule looked up from his
paper, pursed his lips and stared. “Gaither. Bill Gaither. Are you any relation to Grover Gaither?”
“Yes, sir. He was my granddad.”
Mr. Yule put down his paper and removed his glasses. Then he pointed to a couple of chairs, and we sat down.
“Grover Gaither was the best worker I ever had on my farm, patient and persistent in everything,” he said.
“Showed up early, stayed late, did whatever needed doing and never had to be told.” Mr. Yule squinted, his eyes
distant with the memory. “What’d you say you wanted, Gaither?”
I told him again.
“Let me do some thinking on it, then come back and see me.”
