Approaching 96, at an age when most are lonely and in poor health, Olga Murray, full of energy, has been eagerly
planning a trip to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, while keeping in contact with hundreds of friends around the world.
How can she be in such good shape? Is it her good genes? (Her mother lived to 98.) Her daily salads and three-times-a-
week workouts? Or might it have something to do with the retired lawyer’s second career as founder of a nonprofit
organization?
Scientists increasingly are finding that the answer—call it living with purpose, finding meaning in life or just engaging
with something larger than yourself can be a particularly healthy pursuit. Living with a sense of purpose can improve the
quality of those final years. Murray offers a vivid example of how to create a sense of meaning.
Murray’s story began in 1984, after she had worked 37 years as a lawyer and was starting to think about retirement. At
59, while traveling in Nepal, Murray found herself amazed by the children there. “They were poor beyond anything I had
ever experienced,” she recalled in a self-published memoir(自传) years later. “Yet they were the most joyful little kids
anywhere on earth.” She wanted to put the rest of her life into helping educate Nepalese children.
Returning to Nepal the next year, she met Allan Aistrope, then a volunteer English teacher at the country’s only
orphanage(孤儿院). The two combined forces, beginning with organizing college scholarships for four of the orphans. After
another five years, they had launched the Nepal Youth Foundation (NYF), which by then was supporting several hundred
scholarship students and raising 60 homeless children. In 1994, the two hired Som Paneru, a former scholarship student, as
executive director. Murray has taken several steps to make sure the NYF will survive after the unavoidable loss of her
presence. She handed over the presidency to Paneru in 2012. Now, she is busy as usual, leading lots of fundraising
campaigns.
24.How did Nepalese children impress Murray when she traveled in Nepal at 59?
A.They were eager to receive education.
B.They lived a very poor but happy life.
C.They liked to communicate with foreigners.
D.They were terribly interested in her memoir.
25.What did Murray do first when she travelled to Nepal the second time?
A.She helped four orphans go to college.
B.She started the Nepal Youth Foundation.
C.She volunteered to act as an English teacher.
D.She sent 60 homeless children to the orphanage.
26.Which best describes Murray?
A.Confident and helpful. B.Energetic and selfless.
C.Creative and professional. D.Kind-hearted and flexible.
27.What’s the best title of this text?
A.Exercise Regularly. B.Change Your Jobs.
C.Travel to Nepal. D.Live a Purposeful Life.

NASA will crash a spacecraft into an asteroid (小行星) to try to change its orbit,
attempting to prevent humans going the same way as the dinosaurs.Earth is constantly being disturbed by small pieces of debris (碎片), but they usually burn up or break up long before
they hit the ground. Once in a while, however, something large enough to do significant damage makes impact. About 66
million years ago, one such crash is thought to have wiped out the dinosaurs. Someday, something similar could end human
beings—unless we can find a way to tackle it.
NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (Dart) mission is the first attempt to test if such asteroid redirection is a
realistic strategy: investigating whether a spacecraft can autonomously reach a target asteroid and intentionally crash into it,
as well as measuring the amount of redirection. “If it works, it would be a big deal, because it would prove that we have the
technical capability of protecting ourselves,” said Jay Tate, the director of the National Near Earth Object Information
Center.
The 610kg Dart spacecraft is scheduled to be launched at the target—the Didymos system—a harmless pair of
asteroids consisting of a 163-metre “moonlet” asteroid called Dimorphos that orbits a larger 780-metre asteroid called
Didymos (Greek for “twin”). The plan is to crash the spacecraft into Dimorphos when the asteroid system is at its closest to
Earth—about 6.8 million miles away.
About 10 days before impact, a miniaturized satellite called LiciaCube will separate from the main spacecraft, enabling
images of the impact to be relayed back to Earth. Combined with observations from ground-based telescopes, and an
onboard camera that will record the final moments before the crash, these recordings will enable scientists to calculate the
degree to which the impact has changed Dimorphos’s orbit. The expectation is that it will change the speed of the smaller
asteroid by approximately 1% and reduce its orbit around the larger asteroid.
Then, in November 2024, the European Space Agency’s Hera spacecraft will visit the Didymos system and conduct a
further close-up analysis of the consequences of this snooker (斯诺克) game, recording details such as the precise makeup
and internal structure of Dimorphos, and the size and shape of the hole left by Dart. Such details are vital for transforming
asteroid redirection into a repeatable technique.
Even then, it is impossible that any single redirection strategy would be enough. “The problem is that no two asteroids
or comets are alike, and how you redirect one depends on a huge number of variables. There is no silver bullet in this game.
What you need is a whole folder of different redirection methods for different types of targets,” said Tate.
So, while this may be one small step towards planetary protection, many more are likely to be necessary to avoid
destruction.
28.What is the purpose of Paragraph 2?
A.To explain the necessity of launching a spacecraft.
B.To examine the impact of dinosaurs’ extinction.
C.To highlight the crisis threatening human beings at present.
D.To show the damage caused by small pieces of debris.
29.Which of the following pictures illustrates the mission?
A. B.
C. D.30.What is the function of LiciaCube?
A.Helping the satellite separate from the spacecraft.
B.Recording the scientists’ ground-based observations.
C.Sending impact data back to Earth.
D.Calculating the length of Dimorphos’s orbit.
31.What does the underlined sentence “There is no silver bullet in this game” mean?
A.There is no possibility to satisfy NASA’s needs.
B.There is no challenge too big to overcome.
C.There is no strategy to help make an obvious decision.
D.There is no single solution to the complex problem.
D
On Wednesday, two things happened. In Syria, 80 people were killed by government airstrikes. Meanwhile, in Florida,
Elon Musk’s SpaceX successfully launched and fired a sports car into space. Guess which story has dominated mainstream
news sites?
The launch of Musk’s Falcon Heavy rocket, the most powerful ever launched by a private company, went off
successfully. Musk sent his cherry-red Tesla roadster running toward Mars, launching “a new space age”. The event
attracted phenomenal publicity and made the rocket launch a masterstroke of advertising for Tesla.
Meanwhile, in Syria, where hundreds of thousands of refugees(难民) may be forced to return to unsafe homes, a UN
human rights coordinator for Syria said despondently(沮丧地) that he was no longer sure why he bothers to videotape the
effects of bombing, since nobody ever pays attention. He wondered what level of violence it would take to make the world
care.
There is, perhaps, no better way to appreciate the tragedy of 21st-century global inequality than by watching a
billionaire spend $90m launching a $100,000 car into space.
Musk said he wanted to participate in a space race because “races are exciting” and that while strapping his car to a
rocket may be “silly and fun … silly and fun things are important”. Thus, anyone who mentions the huge waste the project
involves, or the various social uses to which these resources could be put, can be dismissed as a killjoy.
But one doesn’t have to hate fun to question the justification for pursuing a costly new space race at exactly this
moment. If we examine the situation honestly, it becomes hard to defend a project like this.
A mission to Mars does indeed sound exciting, but it’s important to have our priorities straight. First, perhaps we could
make it so that a child no longer dies of malaria every two minutes. Or we could try to address the level of poverty in
Alabama which has become so extreme that the UN investigator did not believe it could occur in a first-world country.
Perhaps when violence, poverty and disease are solved, then we can head for the stars.
Many might think that what Elon Musk chooses to do with his billions is Elon Musk’s business alone. If he wanted to
spend all his money on medicine for children, that would be nice, but if he’d like to spend it making big explosions and
sending his convertible on a million-mile space voyage, that’s his right.But Musk is only rich enough to afford these money-consuming projects because we have allowed social inequalities
to arise in the first place. If wealth were actually distributed fairly in this country, nobody would be in a position to fund his
own private space program.
Elon Musk is right: silly and fun things are important. But some of them are an indefensible waste of resources. While
there are still humanitarian crises such as that in Syria, nobody can justify vast spending on rocketry experiments.
32.Why does the writer mention the two pieces of news at the beginning of the passage?
A.To illustrate the inequality of wealth distribution and the consequent inequality of attention distribution.
B.To highlight the significance of SpaceX’s successful launch of a rocket and a car into space.
C.To appeal to the government for more attention to the air strikes and refugee crisis in Syria.
D.To find out which news dominated the mainstream news sites.
33.Why did the UN human rights coordinator for Syria feel disappointed?
A.Because nobody appreciated his work and all the efforts he made.
B.Because the violence in Syria is not serious enough to make the world care.
C.Because however hard he tried, nobody seemed to care about the situation in Syria.
D.Because he had great difficulty videotaping the effects of bombing.
34.What is implied in Paragraph 6 and 7?
A.The space project of SpaceX cost the government too much money.
B.It kills the fun to question the justification of the pursuit of space programs.
C.Space programs are a waste of money that cannot be justified.
D.Addressing problems of violence, poverty and diseases should be our top priority.
35.What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A.We should pay equal attention to space projects and solving social problems.
B.No private companies should be allowed to spend money in rocketry experiments.
C.The money and resources used in space projects could have been used to deal with various social problems.
D.Elon Musk should be blamed for misleading the public.

The Science of Recreational Fear
From peek-a-boo to Halloween haunted houses, research shows that recreational fear can teach us to face scary
situations. The “paradox of horror” is that being scared, under the right circumstances, can be fun. ____36____
Having fun with fear is an “extremely important tool for learning,” said Mathias Clasen, director of the Recreational
Fear Lab at Aarhus University in Denmark. “We learn something about the dangers of the world. We learn something about
our own responses: What does it feel like to be afraid? How much fear can I take?”
Horror movies have gotten more popular. And in one survey of more than 1,000 Americans, conducted by Clasen, 55%
described themselves as horror fans. ____37____ Many people who would not consider themselves fans of fear enjoy true-
crime podcasts and novels featuring violence and murder. Others may enjoy nature documentaries about top predators (捕食
性动物) such as sharks and bears.
Even babies like being a little spooked (惊的). Peek-a-boo is “an infant jump scare,” Clasen said. ____38____ “I
don’t think I’ve yet come across a person who did not enjoy some kind of recreational fear,” he said.
____39____ It is a combination of an adrenaline (肾上腺素) rush and an opportunity to learn about dealing with scary
situations in a safe environment, researchers say. When we are afraid, our endocrine system releases adrenaline,noradrenaline and cortisol to help prepare our body for physical action. We know the “Halloween” movie Michael Myers
is not real, but our brain still responds as if he were a burning threat. One brain imaging study found that watching horror
movies activates threat-response brain regions such as the amygdala (扁桃腺), prefrontal cortex and insula as if the danger
were real.
After this rush, many people experience an uplifted mood. One study examined how 262 adults felt before and after
they entered an extreme haunted house. ____40____ Brain recordings before and after showed that those whose mood
improved had a smaller neural response to subsequent stressors, which is associated with the post-haunt high.
A.So why do we like it?
B.Fifty percent of people said they felt better after the visit.
C.And recreational fear, as it is rightly named, could benefit us, too.
D.Playing with fear helps us learn what our body does under pressure.
E.Horror, though, is not the only genre of what people find scary fun, he said.
F.We define recreational fear broadly as a mixed emotional experience of fear and enjoyment.
G.Classic childhood games of tag and hide-and-seek are just like the real scenes of predator vs. prey.

Smile for the Camera
He had beautiful features, half-Arab and half-African: large almond-shaped brown eyes and a delicate nose. His hair
was black, cut short. For a refugee (难民), he was in good shape physically, though dirty and barefoot.
He stood in front of my camera and stared. “You will find my parents,” he ordered. “I can’t promise,” I replied and
focused the camera on his face, “Smile.” “Then I can’t smile.” I snapped a photo of the boy and wrote down his vital
information: Maiga Fotana, age 10; his parents’ names; his village. “Bye,” I said when I finished and he walked away
silently.Until sundown, I shot pictures of hundreds of children. We would post their pictures wherever we could in the war-
affected country, hoping someone would recognize a little face and come to the camp to claim the child.
The next morning, Maiga was first in line. “Did you find my parents?” he asked. “No,” I said, “I just took your picture
yesterday. I haven’t even developed it yet.”
“My parents will be looking for me, so I need to take another picture,” he said. I loaded my camera. “One photo is
enough,” I said, “We’ll make copies and post them all over. Besides, I don’t have enough film (胶卷). I can’t take two
photos of everyone!” He drew close to me. “We won’t tell others,” he whispered. He winked (眨眼示意). I shook my head.
“Bye,” he said.
The next day, he came and tilted (倾斜) his head, “I want to help you,” he said, “I can write names.” He took his place
next to me. Maiga had beautiful hand-writing, square and even (方正匀称). He spoke to each child with authority as he
wrote down their information. As each child left, Maiga said, “Bye.”
One day, hundreds of people came to our camp. They held photos in their hands with hope in their wide dark eyes.
They strained their necks to see through the crowds. They called out names.
All the aid workers gathered to watch as adults and children ran to each other, crying and embracing. I saw family after
family brought together, and I felt delighted and moved as well.
注意:
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;

Then I noticed Maiga standing at the edge of the group, watching.
