C Last summer, E1well's husband set up a fan in their yard to drive away mosquitoes(蚊子).Surprisingly, this fan soon became a peaceful place for the neighborhood squirrels. One morning, after playing in the yard with her children, E1well noticed a squirrel appeared in front of the fan, clearly enjoying the cool wind. E1well said, “He stayed there for quite some time. Although I don't like squirrels, I felt pity for the overheated animal.” The following day, E1well decided to keep the fan running. To her surprise, two squirrels showed up. Realizing the chance to help, she began making fruit-filled ice cubes for the squirrels to eat. Slowly, E1well found herself charmed by these squirrels. She soon increased her offerings setting up several battery-powered fans, and providing other food: nuts, seeds, and corn. Given the dry conditions, she also put out a small bucket of water. When she posted a video of her story online, it quickly gained attention. Viewers called it a squirrel spa(水疗中心) jokingly and even sent her free fans. She now has ten. Inspired, E1well decided to build a full squirrel resort(度假村) where they could find food, rest, and relaxation. “As much as it is for them, it's for me as well,”E1well said. Her sons, aged 3 and 10, also loved watching the squirrels. Elwel1 and her husband spend between $100 and $300 monthly on the resort.“It can be pricey,”E1well said, “But it brings joy to me and others, so it's just worth it.” E1well keeps a safe distance from the squirrels, who usually run when she gets near them. “I like watching them and providing food for them," she said., “Sometimes I'll look out the window, and they just look at me.” The squirrel resort has the most visits during the hot summer months. But E1wel!makes sure there is food all year round, It's something she has devoted herself to, and the animals are here for it. She doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon. 29.

How to build a perfect living place for squirrels. B. The importance of protecting squirrels in the neighborhood. C. How a woman turned her yard into a popular tourist attraction, D.

Rather, they like fruit, which is rich in sugar. “We call it nature’s candy," says Wei Gordon, a biologist at Menlo College. Gordon wonders whether these furry, flying animals might hold clues to treating diabetes(糖尿病) in people. That's because when fruit bats eat fruit, it increases their blood sugar. But somehow, it doesn't cause the many harm, This isn't the case for humans: We have to be careful about how much sugar we take in“That's because diets rich in sugar lead to things like diabetes,”says Gordon.“And it's just going to cause a lot of problems.” Gordon says fruit bats may keep enough sugar circulating(循环)in their blood to power their flight to their next fruit meal.“They are really dependent on having sugar ready to go in their system to support their lifestyle,”she says. Within half an hour of a big meal of fruit, though, the bats can pretty much bring their sugar levels back to where they started. To learn more about how fruit bats manage their sugar, Gordon set out to compare fruit bats to bats that eat insects, a diet that's rich in protein(蛋白质) but low in sugar. “What was really exciting is that in fruit bats,” she says, “'we did see a lot more cells that are responsible for keeping their blood sugar.” That is, they had more pancreas(胰腺) cells to produce insulin(胰岛素)compared to the insect-eaters. Insulin helps manage glucose(葡萄糖) and get it to the cells that need it. Gordon says that one day, such features of fruit bats might teach us how to help people control their sugar levels. “yes, it's a long way off," Gordon says, “but that would be the end result,‘Wow.we did it.’” 33. What is Gordon's interest in studying fruit bats? A. To find out why fruit bats prefer fruit to insects. B. To understand how fruit bats power their long flights. C. To compare the flying abilities of bats with different diets. D. To learn how fruit bats manage high sugar intake without health problems 34. How did Gordon carry out the study? A. By using advanced technology. B. By turning to earlier findings. C. By comparing different kids of bats. D. By working with other researchers. 35.What does Gordon find about the fruit bats? A. Their diet influences their ability to fly. B. They have more cells for blood sugar control. C. Their lifestyle is good for their physical health. D. They have a well-balanced diet most of the time. 36. What is the final goal of Gordon's research according to the text? A. To help humans in managing blood sugar. B. To help fruit bats improve their flying ability. C.To create a diet plan for people with diabetes. D.To develop fruits that are tasty and low in sugar. 四、信息还原(共4小题；每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Forgetting is part of our daily lives. You might walk into a room only to forget why you went there, or perhaps someone says hi on the street and you can't remember his or her name. Hermann Ebbinghaus, a German psychologist(理学家), was one of the first researchers to study forgetting. He discovered that people forget new information quite rapidly at first. 37.________This idea, known as the“forgetting curve(出线),”has been supported by modern studies. But why do we forget things? Is it simply a sign of memory loss? In fact, forgetting can be a normal and helpful part of how our memory works. 38.________Our brains receive a lot of information every day. However, we don't need to store all the information in our memories. If we remembered everything, it would be hard to pay attention to what really matters. For another, we also need to forget things in order to update(更新)our memories with new information.Imagine you've been following the same school timetable for a whole year, but the next year it will change. Then your brain needs to forget the old information to process the new information. 39.______ His or her face has probably changed a lot, so your memory of the person may need updating as well. In general, we forget information for a lot of different reasons. They really help our brain work well, 40.________We just want you to better understand the rules of forgetting. A. Having a good memory is helpful to you. B. This doesn't mean you should try to be more forgetful. C. But then the speed of forgetting slows down over time. D.You can't possibly remember every face you pass on the street. E. Or, maybe it has been 10 years since you last saw one of your relatives. F. For one thing, forgetting helps us pay attention to more important things 五、阅读表达(共4小题;前3小题每题2分，第4小题3分，满分9分) 阅读下面短文，回答短文后的问题，前3题每题答案不超过10词，第4题字数不限。 On weekends, I like to go to yard sales with forty dollars. I always expect to find something I can sell on eBay, an online marketplace where people buy and sell things, and make a good profit(利润). One day, at a yard sale, I saw a violin for just twenty dollars. I bought it right away without knowing its real value. I called my husband Rick to do a quick search on eBay to find out how much such an instrument would cost However, Rick said there weren't any violins like that listed. It was strange because I thought selling violins online was quite common. After I hung up, I began to worry: Maybe no one would buy the violin at all. On my way home, an elderly man asked if I could sell him the violin for fifty dollars. I agreed and handed him the violin. I returned home happily, Then I sat at the computer, went to the eBay home page, and typed in the kind of second-hand violin I had just sold. To my surprise,I found three violins just like mine selling for over 500 dollars each! I realized Rick hadn't checked the eBay home page. I sold the violin at such a low price! I felt awful and decided to buy it back, but Rick said the weather would soon get bad. Turning a deaf ear, I rushed out of our house. However, it suddenly began to rain heavily. I had to go home. I was sad, feeling I lost a great deal of money. As time went on, I almost forgot it. One day, when I was walking on the street, an old man greeted me,“Good morning! Because of your generosity, my love of music has grown stronger.Now, I volunteer to teach kids to play the violin..” Then I realized he was my violin buyer.Hearing his words, I was proud of my decision that day.
