。Please avoid using highlighter pens(荧光笔),
Good Luck
The closing date for the competition is 28th May.Please ask your teacher,or parent,for one of the

designs from gifted children across the country.
Good Luck!

The race was set in the French Alps.Setting off at 6:15am on Friday,39-year-old Mason battled

Andrea,from Blackpool in Lancashire,England,said,"I am so happy all went according to plan as
there were so many things that could have gone wrong.I wanted to do it in five days,and I did,but it
was very tough.I had some low moments,particularly when I couldn't sleep in my limited rest periods,
and when I couldn't keep any food down as I was running.For sure I had some doubts along the way as
I was exploring the unknown with such a huge run,particularly as large parts of it were in the dark.It
was bigger than I imagined,the impact on my body was huge.But every time I felt like giving up,I
thought about all the women out there in pain or who still hadn't been diagnosed.That is why I put
myself through this.”

It's hair-raising news for criminals on the run.Scientists behind a new study have worked out how
to identify(识别,辨别individuals anly based on the proteins(蛋白质)in a single strand of their hair..
While the police already look at DNA from hair as part ofinvestigations,the technique is far from
ideal:DNA is easily degradable,meaning it can only be analyzed within a certain time period after the
crime.But the new technique could even be used.to solve historical or archaeological()cases,
making it far superior to DNA sequencing in many ways.
DNA degradation depends on several environmental factors including temperature,humidity and
PH.It is also affected by the activity of bacteria()and other microorganisms:In contrast,actual
hairs can survive for a long time-sometimes centuries.After bones and teeth,hair is in fact one of the
most resistant(有抵抗力的,顽固的)structures of the human body..
In order to understand how the protein can be used to identify individuals,it is important to
understand that proteins are coded by DNA.This means that a certain level of the genetie variatiom that
we see in different people's DNA passes into their proteins.In fact,genetic information in the DNA is
translated into amino acid(氨基酸)chains that make up proteins.
The method not only allows for human identification but it can also reveal how old the sample is
and what region it comes from,so that we can distinguish(区分,辨别)between current and ancient
samples.But while the discovery is exciting,the technique is not quite polished enough to be used in the
court room.The main task now will be to analyze hair samples from all over the world,which will make
it a lot more reliable.
The new discovery will boost the significance of hair as evidence in courts,at a time when some
forensic(司法鉴定的).disciplines have been crittcized in the US.It will also be of great use in
archaeology.
41.What's the main idea of the passage?
A.DNA evidence is far from ideal.
B.Criminals on the run get hair-raising news.
C.Scientists are planning a test of human hair.
D.Humans can be identified by proteins in hair.

42.Which evidence()is more reliable for the police to identify a criminal?
A.Iost teeth.
B.The footprint.
C.Personal belongings.
D.Damaged DNA.
43.In what way is the new technique superior to DNA test?
A.Serving as evidence in courts.
B.Possessing genetic information.
C.Unferring the height of a person.
D Distinguishing the region of a person.
44.What will scientists do in the following few years?
A.Test hair samples worldwide.
B.Legalize the hair evidence.
C.Apply protein-test to archaeology.
D.Map the structure of DNA.
45.Who will welcome the discovery?
A.Criminals.
B.Employers.
C.Hairdressers.
D.Archaeologists.

Many of us are more likely to praise someone with low self-esteem()than someone with
high self-esteem because we think their need for positive comments is greater.However,it is found that
compliments()might not benefit people with low self-esteem at all,and can even make them feel
uncomfortable.In one study,college students with low self-esteem showed a stronger preference for
keeping their current roommate if that roommate viewed them negatively,than if their roommate saw
them more positively.
Why did they prefer the company of a person who regarded them poorly?The answer is that people
actively seek to confirm(证实,确认)their own views of themselves,.whether those are positive or
negative.When our self-esteem is low,positive comments become difficult for us to absorb because it
goes against our existing self-beliefs.And if we believe we're incapable of success,receiving praise
about how capable we are can feel like a set-up for future disappointment.
The resistance people with low self-esteem have to compliments can be especially obvious when
the praise comes from their partners.Giving people with low self-esteem praise about being
considerate(体贴的)was enough to make them feel more insecure(不安全的)about their partners and
even view their entire relationship more negatively.Praise will make them become more distant and
withdrawn(),as they hope unconsciously to lower their partner's expectations by doing so.
The connection between low self-esteem and a resistanee to compliments should not be
over-explained.People with low self-esteem are often uncomfortable receiving compliments but not
everyone who is uncomfortable receiving compliments necessarily has low self-esteem.For example,it
is much more acceptable to praise children in some cultures than in others and it is much more
acceptable to express positive regard to adults in some cultures than in others.
The bottom line is:give thought to the listener when you voice a compliment and consider whether
you should express it at all if you suspect their self-esteem is low.

A.They tend to feel lonely in a group.
B.They need greater positive comments.

47.When our self-esteem is low,we often judge others'comments according to
A.whether they are positive or not
B.whether they make us appear unique
C.whether they agree with our self-beliefs
D.whether they can improve our self-confidence
48.How do people with low self-esteem respond to compliments from their partners?
A.They become closer to their partners.
B.They react negatively to their pariners'praise.
C.They feel more secure about their relation.
D.They try to do better to meet their partners'expectations.
49.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A.Children need more compliments than criticism.
B.Receiving criticism makes people more confident.
C.Adults feel more comfortable receiving compliments
D.Praise can be influenced by cultural background.
50.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.What makes some people hate compliments?
B How to praise people in a right way?
C.What can we learn from others'compliments?
D.How to help people overcome low self-esteem?
