The first of the 2015 Nobel Prizes has been announced. Sweden‟s Nobel Prize committee says the Nobel Prize for medicine will go to scientists from Ireland, Japan and China. William Campbell from Ireland and Satoshi Omura from Japan share the prize for their discovery of the drug avermectin(阿维菌素). The Nobel committee praised their work on what is called a “novel therapy.” The treatment fights infections caused by roundworm parasites. The prize for medicine is also going to Chinese researcher Tu Youyou. She discovered artemisinin(青蒿素). Artemisinin is a drug that has sharply lowered the number of people who die from malaria. The committee said the discoveries had given the world powerful new ways to fight two powerful diseases. It is said those diseases affect hundreds of millions of people every year. The committee added that, “The consequences in terms of improved human health and reduced suffering are immeasurable” Ms. Tu is the chief professor at the China Academy of Traditional Medicine. She is also the first Chinese citizen to be awarded the Nobel Prize in medicine. Mr. Campbell currently works as a researcher at Drew University in New Jersey.
Mr. Omura has two doctorate degrees ---- one in pharmaceutical science, the other in chemistry. He is a professor at Hitasato University in Japan. Doctors are now using avermectin to treat river blindness and lymphatic filariasis(淋巴丝虫病). Mr.Omura told the Associated Press that the drug resulted from a substance(物质) taken from a microbe（微生物）was found on a golf course near Tokyo. The researcher said he always carried a plastic bag so he could collect soil samples. When asked if he likes to play golf, he smiled and said, “Yes”. A member of the Nobel committee, also spoke with the AP that the award for Tu Youyou is the result of a major change in the way China performs scientific research. He says China has invested a lot of money in such research. This member adds that the work of the three scientists can help end the health risk of diseases affecting 3.4 billion people.

Both of Shai‟s parents were lawyers and expected her to follow suit. So she went to a law school, got a job at a famous firm in Washington DC, and worked as a lawyer for a decade. But her heart was never in it. “I had a big salary but no personal satisfaction.” she says.
Shai found relief in the same thing that had brought her joy since joining the church choir(唱诗班) at age 12. “Singing always felt like communicating something real on a spiritual and emotional level,” says Shai. Yet she never considered it a career option. “That seemed like something people did in fairy tales.”
It was the brain cancer of her mom in 2009 that made Shai realize she had to write her own happily-ever-after. “Work was driving me crazy, my mother was sick and I was flying back and forth from Washington DC to Houston to see her,” Shai says. “I finally said,
B. Shorter class time.
„Enough‟ and quit.”
While caring for her mom, Shai hatched a plan: She would take her savings and study music for a year, then open a part-time law practice so she could pursue her passion. Before her mother passed away two years later, she encouraged Shai to follow her dream.theblackalley。
In 2012, Shai moved to Nashville to try singing and songwriting. A decade presenting cases in court gave her the confidence to sing for a crowd. “At 20, I would not have been so confident to perform,” says Shai. Her song Live This Life is inspired by her mom (you can hear it at ShaiLittlejohn.com), and her dad comes to hear her perform at clubs. She also sings at weddings and special events.
“Doing music is so free,” Shai says. “There‟s no pressure to be a star. Success, to me, isn‟t a dollar amount or a record deal; it is doing what I love. I am trying something new, so I don‟t expect to do it perfectly. I‟m learning, and mistakes are a natural part of learning. 24．What do we know about Shai according to the text?
A. Shai found her work interesting before she quit. B. One of Shai‟s songs got its inspiration from her mother.
C. Shai worked as a lawyer no longer after she began her career in music.
D. Shai‟s father encouraged her to study music and went to see her performances regularly
25．According to the text, what‟s the most important reason for Shai‟s quitting her job?
A. She found working as a lawyer was boring. B. She got little money from her previous work. C. Her mother encouraged her to achieve her dream. D. The constant flying and her mother‟s illness made her tired.
26．Which of the following sayings can be used to describe the story of Shai?
A .A good beginning is half done. B. Where there is a will there is a way. C. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. D. Give yourself permission to fail and do your likes.
27．What can we learn from what Shai said in the last paragraph?
A. Earning money and recording a song means great success. B. She likes making mistakes and tries something new all the time. C. She wants to be a star and being a star gives her a large pressure. D. She doesn‟t expect something perfect and does like what she likes.

Why is it that when dogs drink, water seems to go everywhere? When my dog drinks from her bowl, there is no question, water will end up on the floor. It looks like unorganized way to get a good drink of water.
Researchers at Virginia Tech University have been studying how dogs drink. They say dogs know exactly what they are doing. The animals are actually making precise movements at a high speed. This helps them get the fluid they need when they are thirsty.
It turns out that neither dogs, nor cats, have a full set of cheeks. This means they cannot create suction(吮吸) to drink, like humans or elephants and horses. Dogs lap, or take up, the water with their tongues curled backward. As they lap, they move their tongues very quickly to build up momentum（动量）. That forces the water into a column（柱） and up into their mouths.
The Virginia Tech researchers filmed 19 dogs of different sizes and breeds as they drank water. They created different laboratory models to measure tongue motion, and the amounts of water taken in. Using the data from these experiments, the researchers were able to make a model that shows how a dog drinks water.
The researchers said that since the mouths of dogs and cats are structured nearly the same way, they thought they would drink water the same way, too. But here is a surprise. The studies showed each family of animals has its own special drinking method.
“We know cats and dogs are quite different in terms of behavior and character,” said Sunghwan “Sunny” Jung, a study author and an associate professor of biomedical engineering and mechanics at Virginia Tech.“But before we did fundamental studies of how these animals drink fluids, our guess was that dogs and cats drink about the same way. Instead we found out that dogs drink quite differently from cats,” he said.
What is the difference? Dogs must quickly move their tongues down into the water using momentum to bring the water up and into their mouths. Cats don't bend their tongues to drink like dogs. Cats use less momentum and a more gentle action. They just skim, or barely touch, the surface of the water to drink it.
“Cats tend be viewed as neater, dogs are messier, but dogs really have to accelerate their tongues” to make good use of the way the fluid column works, ” said researcher Sean Gart, a Virginia Tech graduate student.
28．Which can be the best title for this passage?
A．Different drinking methods between dogs and cats B．Dogs are messier than cats. C．How do dogs drink water? D．How do cats drink water?
29．What does the underlined word “sloppy” mean in the first paragraph?
A．Clean B. Slow C. Unhappy D. Untidy
30．How do dogs drink water?
A．They can drink by sucking like humans, elephants or hostess.
B．They quickly move their tongues down into the water using momentum to bring the
water up and into their mouths.
C．They bend their tongues and do not necessarily use much momentum. D．They drink in a clean and organized way. 31．Which of the following is right?
A．Since the mouths of dogs and cats are structured nearly the same way, they drink
water the same way, too.
B． Cats use more momentum than dogs to bring the water up and into their mouths. C．The researchers had thought dogs and cats drink in the same way. But they were
wrong.
D．Cats need to accelerate their tongues.

Our character, basically, is made up of our habits. "Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny (命运)," as the saying goes.
Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are often unconscious patterns, they constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness. As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, "Habits are like a cable. We weave a rope of it every day and soon it cannot be broken." I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But we also know it isn't a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous effort.
Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were shocked as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles.
Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull. However, most people don‟t realize or admit it. Getting rid of bad habits really requires great willpower and some changes in our lives. Lift-off takes tremendous effort, but once we break out of the pull of gravity, we can enjoy unprecedented(空前的) freedom.
Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together and keeps the planets in their orbits and our
universe in order. It is a powerful force, and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives. 32．Why did the author quote the saying in the first paragraph?
A．To show the author was a wise man.
B．To support the author‟s opinion about the habit. C．Because a great educator asked the author to do it. D．Because the author liked the old saying very much.
33．Why does the author say habits have powerful effects on our lives?
A．Because habits can constantly affect out character. B．Because habits can be learned and unlearned. C．Because you can reap a character by sowing a habit. D．Because a habit is like a cable and useful to our life. 34．What does the writer mean by referring to gravity pull?
A．Ridding bad habits needs great willpower. B．Breaking the gravity pull means enjoying freedom. C．To prove that the habits can work with us or against us. D．The gravity pull is very important in our lives 35．Which can be the best title for this passage?
A．Forming a good character is important B．The importance of the pull of gravity C．Effectiveness depends on habits. D．The powerful factors of habits

The Libido for the Ugly 爱丑之欲
篇二:theblackalley
The Libido for the Ugly
H. L. Mencken
1 On a Winter day some years ago, coming out of the Westmoreland county. It was familiar ground; boy and man, I had been through it often before. But somehow I had never quite sensed its desolation. Here was the very heart of
industrial America, the center of its most lucrative and characteristic activity, the boast and pride of the richest and grandest nation ever seen on earth--and here was a scene so dreadfully so intolerably bleak and forlorn that it reduced the whole depressing . Here was wealth beyond computation, almost beyond imagination--and here were human habitations so abominable that they would have disgraced a race of alley cats. 2 I am not speaking of mere filth. One expects steel towns to be dirty. What I allude to is the unbroken and ugliness, the sheer revolting monstrousness, of every house in sight. From East Liberty to Greensburg, a distance of twenty-five miles, there was not one in sight from the train that did not insult and lacerate the eye. Some were so bad, and they were among the
most one blinked before them as one blinks before a man with his face shot away. A few linger in
memory, horrible even there: a crazy little church just west of Jeannette, set like a dormer-window on the side of a bare hill; the headquarters of the Veterans of Foreign Wars at
another town, a steel stadium like a huge rattrap somewhere further down the line. But most of all I recall the general effect--of hideousness without a break. There was not a single
decent house within eyerange from the Pittsburgh to the Greensburg yards. There was not one that was not misshapen, and there was not one that was not shabby.
3 The country itself is not uncomely, despite the grime of the endless mills. It is, in form, a narrow river valley, with deep gullies running up into the hills. It is thickly settled, but not:
noticeably overcrowded. There is still plenty of room for building, even in the larger towns, and there are very few solid blocks. Nearly every house, big and little, has space on all four sides. Obviously, if there were architects of any professional sense or dignity in the region, they would have perfected a chalet to hug the hillsides--a heavy Winter snows, but still essentially a low and clinging building, wider than it was tall. But what have they done? They have taken as their model a brick set on end. This they have converted into a thing of upon thin, . By the hundreds and thousands these abominable houses cover the bare hillsides, like gravestones in some gigantic and decaying cemetery. On their deep sides they are three, four and even five stories high; on their low sides they bury themselves swinishly in the mud. Not a fifth of them are . They lean this way and that, hanging on to their bases and 4 Now and then there is a house of brick. But what brick! When it is new it is the color of a fried egg. When it has taken on the of the mills it is the color of an egg long past all hope or caring. Was it necessary to adopt that shocking color? No more than it was necessary to set all of the houses on end. Red brick, even in a steel town, ages with some dignity. Let it become downright black, and it is still
the depths and the high spots washed by the rain. But in Westmoreland they prefer
that towns and villages ever seen by mortal eye.
5 I award this championship only after laborious research and incessant prayer. I have seen, I believe, all of the most unlovely towns of the world; they are all to be found in the United States. I have seen the mill towns of decomposing New England and the desert towns of Utah, Arizona and Texas. I am familiar with the back streets of Newark, Brooklyn and Chicago, and have made scientific explorations to Camden, N. J. and Newport News, Va. Safe in a whirled through the g1oomy, villages of Iowa and Kansas, and
the But nowhere on this earth, at home or abroad, have I seen anything to compare to the villages that huddle aloha the line of the Pennsylvania from the Pittsburgh yards to Greensburg. They are incomparable in color, and they are incomparable in design. It is as if some titanic and , uncompromisingly of them. They show of ugliness that, cannot imagine mere human beings concocting such dreadful things, and one can scarcely imagine human beings bearing life in them.
6 Are they so frightful because the valley is full of foreigners--dull, insensate brutes, with no love of beauty in them? Then why didn't these foreigners set up similar abominations in the
countries that they came from? You will, in fact, find nothing of the sort in Europe--save perhaps in the morepeasants, however poor, somehow manage to make themselves graceful and charming habitations, even in Spain. But in the American village and small town the pull is always toward ugliness, and in that Westmoreland valley it has been yielded to with an eagerness bordering upon passion. It is incredible that mere ignorance should have achieved such masterpieces of horror.
7 On certain levels of the American race, indeed, there seems to be a positive libido for the ugly, as on other and less Christian levels there is a libido for the beautiful. It is impossible to put down the wallpaper that defaces the average American home of the lower middle class to
mere , or to the of the manufacturers. Such ghastly designs, it must be obvious, give a genuine delight to a certain type of mind. They meet, in some unfathomable way, its obscure and unintelligible demands. The taste for them is as enigmatical and yet as common as the taste for dogmatic and the poetry of Edgar A Guest.
8 Thus I suspect (though confessedly without knowing) that the vast majority of the honest folk of Westmoreland county, and especially the 100% Americans among them, actually admire the houses they live in, and are proud of them. For the same money they could get vastly better ones, but they prefer what they have got. Certainly there was no pressure upon the Veterans of Foreign Wars to choose the dreadful edifice that bears their banner, for there are plenty of vacant buildings along the trackside, and some of them are appreciably better. They might, in- deed, have built a better one of their own. But they chose that clapboarded horror with their eyes open, and having chosen it, they let it mellow into its present shocking depravity. They like it as it is: beside it, the would no doubt offend them. In precisely the same way the authors of the rat-trap stadium that I have mentioned made a deliberate choice: After painfully designing and erecting it, they made it perfect in their own sight by putting a completely impossible staring yellow, on top of it. The effect is that of a fat woman with a black eye. It is that of
a 9 Here is something that the psychologists have so far neglected: the love of ugliness for its own sake, the lust to make the world intolerable. Its habitat is the United States. Out of the melting pot emerges a race which hates beauty as it hates truth. The of this madness deserves a great deal more study than it has got. There must be causes behind it; it arises and flourishes in obedience to biological laws, and not as a mere act of God. What, precisely, are the terms of those laws? And why do they run stronger in America than elsewhere? Let some honest in (from Reading for Rhetoric by Caroline Shrodes,
Clifford A, Josephson, James R. Wilson )
NOTES
1. the Veterans of Foreign Wars: generally abbreviated to VFW, an organization created by the merger in 1914 of three societies of United States overseas veterans that were founded after the Spanish-American War of 1899. With its membership vastly increased after World War Ⅰand World WarⅡ, the organization became a major national veterans' society.
2. Guest: Edgar Albert Guest (1881--1959), English-born newspaper poet, whose daily poem in the Detroit Free Press was widely syndicated and extremely popular with the people he called 'folks' for its homely, saccharine morality
3. Parthenon: a beautiful doric temple built in honor of the virgin (Parthenos) goddess Athena on the Acropolis in Athens around 5th century B. C.
4. Presbysterian: a form of church government by presbyters developed by John Calvin and other reformers during the 16th-century Protestant Reformation and used with variations by Reformed and Presbyterian churches throughout the world. According to Calvin's theory of church
government, the church is a community or body in which Christ only is head and members are equal under him. All who hold office do so by election of the people whose representatives they are.
Mencken assumes that Presbyterians are puritanical, sombrefaced people who never smile or laugh. Hence people are shocked by the unexpected and incongruous sight of a Presbyterian grinning.
