In science fiction TV programs such as Star Trek , tractor beams (光线) are used to draw
spaceships and move objects
For years, scientists have labored to reproduce this feat（技艺）.
In 2013. they succeeded
A team of British and Czech scientists, led by Dr Tomas Cizmar. say
they have created a rea-life "tractor beam". like the kind from Star Trek . which uses a line of
light to attract objects. at least at a microscopic level
Light control techniques have existed since the l970s. but this is thought to be the first
time a beam has been used to draw objects towards a light source
Usually when microscopic
objects are hit by a line of light. they are forced along the direction of the beam
After many
years' research. Dr Cizmar's team discovered a technique that allows for the radiant force(辐射力) of light to be changed and to use the negative force to draw out certain particles（小颗粒）
Dr Cizmar says that even though it is a few years away from practical use. the technology has huge potential for medical research
In particular. the tractor beam is highly selective in the particles it can attract. so it can pick up particles that have specific characteristics. such as size or composition. in a mixture
"Eventually, this could be used to separate white blood cells. for example," Dr Cizmar told BBC News
It has been a primary plot design in science fiction TV programs and movies to allow ob-
jects like spaceships to be trapped in a line of light But Dr Cizmar said this particular technique would not eventually lead to that A transfer of energy happens in the process
On a microscopic level that is OK. but on a large level it would cause huge problems
A large object could be destroyed by the heating, which results from the massive amount of energy necessary to pull it.
24. What is this passage mainly about?
A The application of light control techniques in modem society.
B The uses and limitations of a scientific invention by a research team
C. The adoption of light control techniques in medical treatment.
D. The influences and effects of scientific developments on science fiction
25. Which of the following is TRUE about Dr Cizmar's tractor beam?
A It moves big objects as the tractor beam did in Star Trek.
B It is the first beam that pushes objects forward
C. It relies on negative force to pull out specific kinds of particles.
D. It is currently being used for separating blood cells in medical research
26. What does "that" in the last paragraph refer to?
A Transferring a massive amount of energy.
B. Making science fiction programs and movies.
C. Burning a large object into ashes.
D. Catching spaceships in a beam of light
27. What is the tone of this passage?
A Objective
B. Suspicious
C. Admiring.
D. Pessimistic.
C
The Japanese have long puzzled public health researchers because they are such an obvi ous paradox（矛盾） : They have the world's lowest rates of heart disease and the largest num-ber of people that live to or heyond 100 years despite the fact that most Japanese men smoke-and smoking counts as one of the strongest risk factors for heart disease. So what's protecting Japanese men?
Two professors at the University of California at Berkeley hoped to find out the answer. They investigated a group of 12. 000 Japanese men equally divided into three groups:
One group had lived in Japan for all their lives, and the other two groups had immigrated to Ha-waii or Northern California. It was found that the rate of heart disease among Japanese men increased five times in California and about half of that for those in Hawaii.
The differences could not be explained by any of the usual risk factors for heart disease, such as smoking, or high blood pressure. The change in diet. from sushi to hamburgers and fries, was also not related to the rise in heart disease. However, the kind of society they had created for themselves in their new home country was
The most traditional group of Japanese Americans. who maintained closely and mutually supportive social groups, had a heart-attack rate as low as their fellow Japanese back home_ But those who had adopted the more isolated (弧立的) Western lifestyle increased their heart-attack incidence by three to five times
The study shows that the need to bond with a social group is so fundamental to humans that it remains the key determinant of whether we stay healthy or get ill, even whether we live or die
We need to feel part of something bigger to thrive (茁壮成长). We need to belong. not online, but in the real world of hugs, handshakes, and pats on the back
28. What is the best title of this passage?
A Heart Disease and Its Causes
B The Power of Social Connection
C. Differences in Japanese Americans
D. The Sense of Belonging vs.
Isolation
29. Which of the following is a finding oi the two American professors' study?
A Many Japanese men that lived up to iOO years were smokers
B. Those who often ate hamburgers and fries were more likely to fall sick
C. Japanese immigrants to America usually formed a close community.
D. Westernized social life was related to the heart-attack rate of Japanese Americans.
30. Which of the following is an example of "something bigger" in the last paragraph?
A.
family.
B. A stadium
C. The universe
D. The digital world
31. What is the rate of heart disease between Japanese living in Japan and Japanese Americans
in Hawaii?
A l t0 2. 5.
B. l t0 5.
C. 3 t0 5.
D. 1. 5 t0 5.

The most popular trend in self-help theories these days is about positive thinking
Many
successful authors tell us that the best way to succeed and be happy is to avoid thinking about
failure and to focus on good things. One of these theories comes from a small book called How
Full is
Your Bucket(水桶)? by Tom Rath and Donald O.
Clifton
The idea behind their work
is fairly simple, positive thinking from yourself and others will make your life better.
The authors say that the idea for their work is based on a historical case. During the Korean War. a large number of American troops were being held prisoners. and many of them
died in prison
A psychologist found that the reason for their death was the feel of total lack of hope the prisoners had
In other words; the authors of How Full Is Your Bucket? say it was
because of negative thinking. The story shows us the terrible power of negative emotions.
The authors of the book also believe that every interaction (相互影响) we have with other people affects us deeply. Our lives are shaped by our relationships with others
The authors
believe that experiences with others are always either good or bad but never neutral This
brings us to the bucket idea
Imagine that everyone has a bucket
Every positive interaction
adds to the bucket. and every negative interaction takes away from it It works whether it's
another person's negativity or your own; they both take away from your own bucket. The
best way to live is with a full bucket, which is the result of positive thinking and interactions
with the people around us. Positivity is almost like a magic cure. according to the look
It gives us energy and makes us stronger. healthier, happier. and more successful Is the secret really that simple? It's up to you to decide
32. According to the text, when someone asks you "how full is your bucket?", what does he
mean?
A. How hard do you work?
B. How unhappy are you?
C. How disappointed do you feel?
D. How much optimistic energy do you have?
33. The authors of the book believe the prisoned American soldiers in the Korean War were
killed by
A. terrible diseases
B lack of food and clean water
C. the idea that they're going to die
D. cruel mental and physical punishment
34. According to the bucket theory, when interacting with others, if you are holding negative
beliefs, you are _______.
A. emptying both your and others' buckets
B. emptying just your own bucket
C. filling up your own bucket
D. filling up others' buckets
35. How can we live with a full bucket?
A. Avoid communicating with discouraged people and focus on our own happiness.
B. Carry a bucket of water with us wherever we go.
C. Raise our positive energy and bring hope to others all the time.
D. Blame others for being unhappy and force them to smife.
