support to children both in Texas and overseas, And they call themselves the Knit Wits
Every Friday, they gather around a long table with wool and needles to lend a hand

preserving the smell of the adult next to take baby's skin. Caregivers are able to wear the
hat on their body to. carry their smell before placing the hat back on the baby, easing the
babies' stress. Throughout the babies'.hospital admission, many holidays have been
celebrated. but often the babies are too criticalto be dressed up for photos. Thanks to the
generosity of the Knit Wits, the baby hat provides the perfect festive touch
Marianne is 102 years old and still knitting. "Being creative, being busy and having

The Australian sand octopus (章鱼) was discovered in 19o0 and is the only octopus
species known to bury itself deep in the sand to hide from enemies. A team of
researchers are studying the venom (毒液) of this kind of octopus. They have discovered
that the venom may greatly slow cancer growth. And it can also help fight drug
resistance in patients with a BRAF-changed skin cancer. BRAF is involved in managing
cell growth. A change in it results in abnormal cell growth. These BRAF changes are
seen in half of all cases of skin cancers.
“We and other groups have previously discovered that other animals-snakes, spiders
bees-have anticancer properties,"said Dr. Maria, the study's lead author. "However, in
my current knowledge, the anticancer properties of an octopus species have never been
studied or confirmed before
Current treatments face a few challenges including low response rates, poisoning
and side effects, as well as drug resistance. The octopus venom slows the growth of
BRAF-changed skin cancer. More importantly, it is safe to be used in large quantities -
it is not poisonous. Therefore, in combination with other drugs, the treatments could
potentially achieve better and safer patient outcomes.
It is very unlikely that the octopus has specifically developed its venom to contain
an anticancer substance. According to theresearching team, the octopus venom contains
over i,ooo uniaue substances with several functions such as reducing pain and
anticancer.
"In this study, we have shown that the octopus venom specifically targets
BRAF-changed skin cancer. The next step is to examine whether similar promising
results are applicable for other BR AF-changed cancers." said Dr. Maria. "Before it can
be used on patients, the team will need to perform several rounds of lab testing and
clinical trials to understand how it works and its full potential as a drug against skin
cancer."
28. What can we know about BRAF?
A. It is a change in cells.
B. It controls cell growth.
C. It can cause a deadly illness.
D. It helps to cure a skin cancer
29. What discovery did the team make?
A. A medicine to cure cancers.
B. A substance contained in animals
C. The medical value of octopus species. D. The anticancer effect of an octopus venom
30. What is an advantage of the octopus venom to treat the skin cancer?
A. It is of large quantity.
B. It has no side effects
C. It is less expensive.
D. It has lower risks.
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph concerning the octopus venom?
试题共6页
A. Its application reauires further work. B. It helps treat BRAF-changed cancers
C. Its safety needs more clinical testings. D. It has already been put into wide use.
D
Many often find themselves considering jobs below their skill level in worsening
employment markets. But it turns out that working n a job below your skill level harms
your later chances of getting hired for a better-paying job more appropriate to your
qualifications
Soctologist David Pedulla at the University of Texas conducted a study to examine
how jobs below a person's skill level affect future employability. He tailored 2,420
applications and submitted them to 1,210 job listings posted in five major cities across
the U.S. He varied the applications by gender, and also by employment status for the
previous year. Then he used computer models to analyze and compare the results. The
results show that applicants who were positioned as working below their skill level.
regardless of gender had the lowest chances of getting called for a job interview.
These results should serve as a warning to anyone considering taking a job below
their skill level. While it might pay the bills in the short term. it can significantly
hammer one's ability to return to the relevant skill level and pay grade at a later date
Why might this be the case? Pedulla conducted a follow-up study with 903
employers. He asked them about their ideas of applicants with each kind of employment
history, and how likely they would be to recommend each kind of candidate to an
interview. The results show that employers believe that men who are employed in
positions below their skill level are less committed and less competent than men in other
employment situations. Those surveyed also believed that women working below therr
skill level were less competent than others, but did not believe them to be less
committed.
The results of studies suggest that work below skill level signals to employers men's
incompetence and a lack of commitment. This is a disturbing reminder that the sword of
gender bias (偏见) does in fact cut both ways.
32. Why do many people choose jobs below their skill level?
A. They fear bearing duties.
B. They lack-self-confidence
C. They face a tough economy.
D. They pursue better-paying jobs
33. How do the researchers carry out the first study?
A. By conducting interviews
B. By researcning examples.
C. By making comparisons.
D. By doing surveys.
34. Which of the followirig can best replace the underlined word "hammer" in Paragraph 3?
B Weaken.
C. Test.
A. Ensure.
D. Exercise.

35. What is the emplovers' idea according to the follow-up study?
A. Men are more likely to get promoted.
B. Women are more devoted and capable.
C. Women behave better in jobs below skill level
D. Men show talents in work of the relevant level

A large part of the world's total sugar supply comes from beets. Most markets carry
this sugar, but it may not always be clearly labeled. You may think the white sugar you
just bought is made from sugarcane. 36
Beets have been an important crop in human agriculture for centuries, with evidence
of their planting dating back to ancient civilizations in Europe. However, it was not until
the16th century that beets' potential as a source of sugar was realized. 37 Later,
they slowly spread to America.
One key advantage of using beets for sugar is that compared to sugarcane, beets can
be planted in cooler regions. 3s Beet sugar is also easier to produce. just
requiring very basic processing. So m consideration of the cost- effective characteristics.
beets are an attractive alternative to sugarcane.
39
(he imtial step involves washing and cutting up the beets, followed by
passing them through a machine that forces hot water past the beet pieces. The resulting
juice is then combined with liauids saueezed from the beets. The mixture is then heated
leading to a thick, sweet liauid. Finally, the liauid is further processed to obtain beet
sugar, which is chemically nearly identical to sugarcane sugar
The quantities of beet sugar and sugarcane sugar can be used equally in baking
recipes. 40 While some people are able to tell a difference, many others can't tell
whether a baked treat has been made with beet sugar or sugarcane sugar. So beet sugar
sometimes can replace sugarcane sugar in a baking recipe
A. Beets can be easily processed
B. But its source may be actually beets
C. The flavour of baked goods is quite similar
D. Let's look at how exactly to make beet sugar
E. In most cases, people tend to eat sugarcane sugar
F Besides, beets are tougher and able to grow on land of poor quality
G. Therefore, beet sugar processing plants began to be built in Europe
