2、ame up with the character in 1928. 2. Albert Einstein never flunked a math class as a child. When the adult Einstein was shown a newspaper article claiming he had, he replied, “Before I was 15, I had mastered differential and integral calculus.(微积分)” While Einstein achieved high grades throughout hi
3、s childhood education, he “hated the strict protocols followed by teachers and rote learning demanded of students” at the schools he attended. 3. Napoleon Bonaparte was not short. Despite the fact that his name has become synonymous with “angry short man,” Napoleon Bonaparte was actually of average
4、height for the time period in which he lived. His contemporaries described him as being 52, but the French measured height differently back in the day, so he was actually around 55. That made him just “an inch or so below the periods average adult male height.” 4. Isaac Newton didnt discover gravity
5、 because an apple struck him on the head. Rather, he witnessed an apple falling and wondered why objects always fall down instead of up or sideways, a thought that inspired his Law of Universal Gravitation. 5. Bats are not blind. No, bats are not blind. Bats have small eyes with very sensitive visio

9、 （2） We all know that a healthy life means getting both plenty of exercise and enough good-quality sleep, but reality often gets in the way. The new research indicates that doing enough exercise could make up for some of the unhealthy impacts of bad sleep. While the health benefits of exercise and s
10、leep are nothing new, its the relationship between them that is interesting in this particular study it could even give doctors another option to suggest for patients dealing with sleep problems. “We found those who had both the poorest sleep quality and who exercised the least were most at risk of
11、death from heart disease, stroke, and cancer,” says epidemiologist Bo-Huei Huang, from the University of Sydney in Australia. Participants were grouped into three levels of physical activity (high, medium or low) and were also given a sleep quality score from 0-5 based on the amount of shut-eye they
12、 got, how late they stayed up, insomnia, snoring and daytime sleepiness. 第 3 页 共 9 页 Those with the highest risk of dying from cancer or heart disease during the study period were those with the worst quality sleep and who didnt meet the WHO recommended guidelines for exercise. That risk went down f
13、or people with poor quality sleep but who did meet the exercise guidelines. In the case of all forms of cancer, for example, those at the unhealthiest end of the sleep and exercise scale had a 45 percent higher risk of dying from cancer than those with good sleep scores who kept physically active. H
14、owever, that risk just about disappeared for those who didnt score well on sleep but did score well on physical activity. For now its not clear why more exercise might make up for poor sleep, as far as ourhealthgoes.Itcouldbethattheincreasedactivityiscounteracting inflammation（炎症）, or reducing irreg
15、ularities in glucose metabolism, suggest the researchers. “Considering that physical activity is perhaps more modifiable than sleep, our study offers people more health incentives to be physically active.”says population health researcher Emmanuel Stamatakis, from the University of Sydney. 4. This r
16、esearch is of particular interest in that _. A. its in this study that exercise is known to be beneficial to sleep. B. this study offers people more health treatments to be physical active. C. it could enable doctors to cure patients of their sleeping condition. D. the relationship between exercise
17、and sleep is updated in this study. 5. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. Those who had the poorest sleep quality were most at risk of death from heart disease. B. Those scoring lowest on sleep and exercise scale were more likely to die from cancer. C. Theres no r
18、isk of cancer for those who didnt sleep well but did score well on physical activity. D. Its evident that in terms of health more exercise could make up for poor sleep. 第 4 页 共 9 页 6. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 mean? A. interactingB. increasingC. preventingD. causing 7.Where can th

20、s, say researchers at Georgetown UniversityMedicalCenter. Theysaythesedefectsresult from epigenetic changes that can potentially affect multiple generations. The study, published in theAmerican Journal of Stem Cells, suggest both parents contribute to the health status of their offspring-a common se
21、nse conclusion which science is only now beginning to demonstrate, says the studys senior investigator, Joanna Kitlinska, PhD, an associate professor in biochemistry, and molecular and cellular biology. “We know the nutritional, hormonal and psychological environment provided by the mother permanent
22、ly influences organ structure, cellular response and gene expression in her offspring,” she says. “But our study shows the same thing to be true with fathers his lifestyle, and how old he is, can be reflected in molecules that control gene function,” she says. “In this way, a father can affect not o
23、nly his immediate offspring, but future generations as well.” For example, a newborn can be diagnosed with fetal(胎儿的) alcohol spectrum disorder(FASD), even though the mother has never consumed alcohol, Kitlinska says. “Up to 75 percent of children with FASD have biological fathers who are alcoholics
24、, suggesting that preconceptual paternal alcohol consumption negatively impacts their offspring.” Advanced age of a father is correlated with elevated rates of certain diseases, 第 5 页 共 9 页 and birth defects in his children. A limited diet during a fathers preadolescence has been linked to reduced r
25、isk of cardiovascular death in his children and grandchildren. Paternal obesity is linked to enlarged fat cells, changes in metabolic regulation, diabetes, obesity and development of brain cancer. Psychosocial stress on the father is linked to defective behavioral traits in his offspring. And patern
26、al alcohol use leads to decreased newborn birth weight, marked reduction in overall brain size and impaired cognitive function. “This new field of inherited paternal epigenetics needs to be organized into clinically applicable recommendations and lifestyle alternations,”Kitlinska says. “And to reall
27、y understand the epigenetic influences of a child, we need to study the interplay between maternal and paternal effects, as opposed to considering each in isolation.” 8. Whats the message the writer conveys in the passage? A. Both parents contribute to the health status of their offspring. B. Father
28、s age and lifestyle are tied to birth defects. C. Father plays a more critical role in birth defects. D. Birth defects can potentially affect multiple generations. 9. What can we infer from the example in Paragraph 5? A. FASD can only be diagnosed in a newborn whose father is addicted to alcohol. B.
29、 A newborn will not contract FASD if his mother has never consumed alcohol. C. A fathers lifestyle can negatively impact his offspring. D. Most children have biological fathers who are alcoholics. 10. Which of the following situations is less likely to lead to children s birth defects? A. Having a f
30、ather with a limited diet.B. Having a father who is an alcoholic. C. Having an overweight father.D.Havingafatherwith psychosocial stress. 11. What will the research probably continue to focus on in the part that follows? A. The maternal epigenetic influences of a child B. The ways to avoid negative
31、paternal influence on children. 第 6 页 共 9 页 C. The clinical application of the research findings. D. The interaction between maternal and paternal effects. （4） Ivy League schools are considered to be the most prestigious of all colleges in the United States. These schools are primarily located in th
32、e Northeastern part of the country. There are eight total colleges that are considered to be Ivy League. These schools are Brown, Harvard, Cornell, Princeton, Dartmouth, Yale, and Columbia universities and the University of Pennsylvania. Of all institutions of higher learning, these elite schools ar

All carry a certain reputation with them, and each school has programs that excel primarily in the medical and law fields, making them some of t
