All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money. When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle (奇迹) can save him now.” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully. She hurried to a drugstore with the money in her hand. “And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “Its for my little brother.” The girl answered. “Hes really sick and I want to buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman. “My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We dont sell a miracle here, child. Im sorry.” the salesman said with a smile. “Listen, if it isnt enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.” A well-dressed man heard this and asked, “What kind of miracle does your brother need?” “I dont know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “Hes really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy cant pay for it, so I have brought all my money.” “How much do you have? asked the man. “$1.11, but I can try and get some more.” she answered. “Well, what luck,” smiled the man, “$1.11, the price of a miracle for your little brother.” He took up the girls hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Lets see if I have the kind of miracle you need.” That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor.

That night, when I lay in bed, my husband said to me. “You were so rude to Betty. Go and look around on the kitchen floor, and youll find some flowers there. Betty brought those for you. She picked them herself pink, yellow, and your favourite blue.” When I heard this, I thought deeply. “While meeting with a stranger, I was calm and polite, but with my daughter, I was not patient.” I felt sad and tears began to fall. I quietly went to Bettys bed, “Wake up, my dear!” I said, “Are these the flowers you picked for me?” she smiled. “I found them by the tree. I knew you liked them, especially the blue. ” I said, “I am so sorry that I treated you that way today.” And she whispered(悄声说)， “Mommy, thats okay.

At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod. For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a fortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer. Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fishs blood and measured its freezing point. The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of 1.88 and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to 2.05. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the icesalt mixture.The scientists next research job was clear: Find out what in the fishs blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange things made up of a protein (蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point. Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules (分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has e to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein or AFGP. 32What is the text mainly about?AThe terrible conditions in the Antarctic. BA special fish living in freezing waters.CThe ice shelf around Antarctica. DProtection of the Antarctic cod.33Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature?AThe seawater has a temperature of 1.88.BIt loves to live in the icesalt mixture.CA special protein keeps it from freezing.DIts blood has a temperature lower than 2.05.34What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?AA type of icesalt mixture. BA newly found protein.CFish blood. DSugar molecule.35What does “glyco” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean?Asugar Bice Cblood Dmolecule第二节七选五 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The stress of everyday life cannot be avoided.
