To leave or not to leave? Saturday, May 14
Today I went to see a play at the Globe Theatre—it was Hamlet written by William Shakespeare. The theatre just looks like it was in the 17th century. Most of it is open-air, so you need to hope for good weather! The theatre is wonderful but I don’t think they offer enough space for the seats. I could hardly stand up after the 2-hour play. I’m going to Ireland tomorrow and leaving for home next Tuesday. How time flies!

Every human being has about 25,000 genes (基因). Your genes are part of your DNA. They give your body instructions on how to develop. For example, if your genes tell your body to build long, thin fingers, then you'll have long, thin fingers.
Your genes come from your parents, and they decide everything about you such as your hair color, your eye color, your weight, your height, and so on. Genes are still a bit of a mystery(神秘) to scientists, but they're learning new things about them all the time,
Do the genes influence (影响) our personalities? People have different ideas. These days,most people agree that the answer to the question is yes. Recent studies have shown that genes especially influence our self-control and our sense of purpose. What is a sense of purpose? If a person really wants to complete something and do well in life, he or she has a sense of purpose.A person who does not care about goals has no sense of purpose.
Although scientists agree that our genes influence our personalities, there is an other question. How much do they influence us? Can we control ourselves, or do our genes control us? So far, we still don't really have an answer.
Genes also influence your health. If a gene has a problem, it's called a mutated gene.Some mutated genes can cause diseases. That is why if a person has a certain health problem,his or her child is more likely to have that same problem.
As scientists and doctors lean more about genes, they're also developing a new kind of medicine: gene therapy. Gene therapy means fixing or replacing mutated genes. Scientists are still doing experiments(实验) on gene therapy. It's possible that in the future, gene therapy will help doctors prevent and cure diseases that are caused by mutated genes.
41. The underlined word “They” in the passage refers to_____
A. Your genes. B. Your DNA. C. Mutated genes. D. Gene therapy.
42. What can we lean from the passage?
A. Genes can mostly decide how you look.
B. Every human being has the same genes.
C. Genes can never be changed after your birth.
D. Gene therapy will be the best way to cure diseases.
43. What is a person with a strong sense of purpose like according to the passage.
A. He is quite humorous and likes playing jokes with others.
B. He is usually polite and gets on well with people around him.
C. He is quite serious and doesn't talk much with other people.
D. He is usually hard-working and tries his best to achieve his goals,
44. Which of the following words can best describe gene therapy?
A. Successful. B. Hopeless. C. Meaningful. D. Useless.-

Hiking to new heights
At just age 16, Zhen Xin, from Beijing, finished the “Five Great Mountains Challenge” in August in only five days. She became the youngest person to do it.
“The Five Great Mountains Challenge” is about climbing China's five greatest mountains—Taishan Mountain in Shandong, Huashan Mountain in Shanxi, Songshan Mountain in Henan, Hengshan Mountain in Shanxi, and Hengshan Mountain in Hunan—in 100 days.
Because of the hot August weather, Zhen did most of her hiking at night. "When you can't see what's coming next, many of your fears and worries go away. You're less likely to back down, "Zhen explained.
Zhen said the key to hiking is one’s mentality(心态). Whenever she came across a vendor booth(货摊)along the hiking road, he would remind(提醒)herself to carry on until the next one. And whenever she felt she was about to give up, she would reward herself with a drink or some snacks.
Of all the mountains she climbed. Huashan Mountain was her favorite because of its steeper (更陡峭) trails. “They’re more dangerous than those of the other four mountains,” she said. (63) But instead of making her afraid, the challenge improved her confidence.
Zhen decided to climb the five great mountains when she finished middle school. "I wanted something that allow me to see my growth and changes over time. As I grow older. I want something to share with others," she said.
