I was working the overnight shift in a remote hospital in the Rocky Mountains. Late in the
evening, a young African teenager was brought into the emergency department. He lived at sea
level and had never been in the mountains. After skiing all day, he felt really ill. Everyone
assumed it was altitude sickness.
He was sweating and had abdominal (腹部的) pain. His heart rate increased. We sent off his lab
work, and his blood sugar came back at almost 600 — normal is less than 100. His platelets (血
小板), necessary for stopping bleeding, came in at 10,000; they should have been over 150,000.
I did an ultrasound of his abdomen, and it looked like his belly was full of blood. This wasn't
altitude sickness. And in the short time I'd been trying to figure out what was wrong, he was
getting sicker. The friends he was traveling with were terrified, and rightly so.
The mystery was finally solved with an old-fashioned microscope. When we looked at his
blood, we saw some sickled (镰形的) red blood cells. That's how we were able to diagnose
sickle cell trait. If you have sickle cell trait — which means you got the sickle cell gene from
just one parent instead of two — you have no symptoms at low altitude, but high altitude can
sometimes cause the red blood cells to turn into sickle shapes and take oxygen from vital organs.
This teenager didn't know he had it, but the effect of the altitude on his blood cells was so
extreme that after just a short time in the mountains, he suffered great pain.
He needed platelets immediately, but we didn't have enough at the remote hospital. And there
was a snowstorm, so the medical helicopters couldn't fly. It was a scary night. Just as we were

abandoning all hope, we met an ambulance that drove halfway up from the city with blood
products and transferred him to the city hospital for emergency surgery. The story has a happy
ending: He recovered fully.

When success comes quickly, as a result of hard work meeting opportunity, one tends to forget
that it may not always continue on trend.
Like me, most people do not “hit it big”. We tend to take a more circuitous(迂回的) route
toward success. Believe that great success is not always be given the lucky but those who go
after it long and diligently.
Recently I have conversations with many people that are in the “success” stage, not happy
where they currently are or feeling “unsuccessful”. Society has made us confirm that we need
to be wealthy in order to be successful. I tell them not to get on the “way off track”. Success
doesn’t have to be financial, it could be relationships, it could be fulfilling your passions, and it
could be your health level. I know many successful people that are not wealthy but are rich in
their career or spirit. The worst thing people can do is chase the “money” by any kind of means.
Success is made by serving others, and in turn, you will get the rewards of financial success.
It’s not easy travelling down the roads of patience, risk and uncertainty. You must stay flexible
because the road to success is always under construction. You must concentrate because
试卷第3页，总9页

someone or something will throw a roadblock in the middle of the road. So, get ready for
difficulty and delays. Stop worrying about failure.
The road to success is not a straight line, it’s over mountains and down in the valleys. With
persistence and belief, you will most certainly get there. Trust you will have powerful and new
breakthroughs as long as you get rid of the hurdle of self-doubt and never give up. And, even if
all else fail, remind yourself that: I couldn’t wait for success, so I went ahead without it.

A. forgets it is not easy to be successful B. forgets successful trend continues

10．According to the author most people have the wrong opinion that .
A. the rich are successful B. the poor may be successful
C. to succeed needs money D. success belongs to the lucky
11．Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A. Success needs courage B. The road to success
C. What leads to success D. Success is our dream

In a paper published in the journey Science Advance, researchers describe how Matabele ants, a
species of large ant known for attacking termite colonies (白蚁群落), will, after the battle, pick
up injured fellow soldiers and carry them back to the nest where they can recover.
The paper is the latest in a growing body of research that this form of helping behavior,
previously observed in some mammals and birds, may not require complex emotion, and may,
therefore, be far more widespread in nature than previously thought.
“Here we have an example of an individual saving another individual,” says lead researcher
Erik Frank who conducted the research. “We can be quite certain that the ants don’t know why
they are doing what they are doing.”
It’s a behavior that pays off for the colony. Our classic conception of worker ants is that they are
essentially abandoned, but Mr. Frank and his colleagues calculated that the practice of rescuing
nest mates results in a colony size that is a 28.7 percent larger than it would be had the ants left
their fellow soldiers for dead.

“These injured ants are able to recover from their injuries, ” says Frank. “They are essential for
the safety and the betterment of the colony. ”
When a Matabele ant is injured, as often happens during battles with termites, its body will give
off two smelly chemicals that tell other ants to carry it back to the nest. Indeed, the researchers
found that using these chemicals to seek help from uninjured ants will effectively activate the
rescue behavior, supporting their theory that the ants were acting on pure instinct(本能), not
more complex emotions.
“The more we study rescue behavior in ants and other animals, the more we are going to realize
that it’s not just limited to the species we’ve observed so far, ” says Karen Hollis, a professor at
Mount Holyoke College, mentioning studies that found that dolphins help other injured
dolphins to the surface for air, capuchin monkeys defend each other during intergroup battles,
and rats free other rats that are trapped.
12．What does Frank say about Matabele ants’ helping behavior?
A. It proves they can feel sympathy. B. It exists only in some individuals.
C. It happens only termite colonies. D. It is something they were born with
13．How will the helping behavior benefit the ants?
A. It will expand the size of the colony.
B. It will help them catch more termites.
C. It will improve their fighting abilities.
D. It will help them escape enemies’ attacks.
14．How can Matabele ants know one needs rescuing?
A. Through its special noise. B. Though the smell of its blood.
C. Through its chemical signals. D. Though the search after a battle
15．What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To promote research on ants. B. To describe termites’ battles.
C. To introduce a new species. D. To report a research result


二、七选五
Are you ready for your exam?
So, it’s exam time again -have you done the necessary work to get good marks? Sleeping with
the textbook under the pillow in the hope that knowledge will be magically absorbed into your
brain as you sleep doesn’t work. The best strategy is to space your practice out, rather than
试卷第5页，总9页

cram(突击学习)it all together. 16．!
In an article, Tom Stafford, a lecturer in psychology and cognitive(认知的) science at the
APF-- University of Sheffield, advises, “If you organize five hours of study into one hour a day,
you’ll remember more than if you study for five hours a day.”
17．—get pen and paper and start working. Students who can test themselves in advance will be
better at getting back material from their memory and learning that material in the long run.
You should start by reading a textbook using your favorite highlighter(荧光笔). 18． Instead of
just reading those, you basically try to test yourself on them.
19．, but if you are still anxious, there’s no harm in performing a personal ritual(仪式). In Japan,
for example, it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test. 20．. The
name of the dish reminds people of the word “katsu”, meaning“ winning”. The bottom line is
that you need to study, sleep well on the eve of the test, eat a nutritious meal, drink plenty of
water and believe that your efforts will pay off. Good luck in your exam.
A. Don’ t rely on memory alone
B. That means hit the books early
C. Good revision should give you confidence
D. Then make flashcards of all the important concepts
E. They believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their head
F. This is a warm bowl of rice topped with egg and a slice of deep-fried pork

52．Dear Mr. Smith,
I’ m very happy to know you are in charge of the new English Club. I’m writing to offer my
suggestions about the activities that it’ll hold.
First, in my opinion, you can hold some English song contests ,which can not only show our singing
talents ,but also attract more students to join us. Second, you can offer us some famous English
movies to watch and have us talk about them afterwards, which can improve our English speaking
and listening ability. Finally, we can go hiking together, which will help us get close to nature and
develop our friendship.
I hope you will find these suggestions useful.
Yours,

Li Hua
