12、 blood sugar was five times higher than normal. That can be deadly. My parents rushed me to the hospital. Thats when my whole life changed.The doctors said I had Type 1 Diabetes (糖尿病).That means my body cant make insulin (胰岛素).Theres no cure.My parents had to give me insulin shots every day and I ha

13、d to get over my fear of needles quickly. Sometimes I had 10 band-aids on my fingers at once.Now that Im older, I check my own blood sugar and give myself shots. About four years ago, my mom started traveling to rural Guatemala. She goes twice a year to help people in need.I have been a Girl Scout s

14、ince kindergarten. For a Girl Scout project, I put together a team to go to Guatemala to test people there for diabetes. We went for four days last July. We tested 378 children and 100 adults. We found three adults with a different kind of diabetes, called type 2. We also found one little girl with

15、dangerously low blood sugar. She cried when we told her. She had been feeling dizzy and didnt know why. It was like replaying what happened to me when I was little. I talked through a translator, but everyone understood hugs. I gave more hugs than Ive ever given.Having type 1 diabetes is hard. But I

16、 have accepted it readily. It has helped me meet amazing people. It has made me responsible and independent. It has also shown me the power of taking action.

Most of them, however,

20、are just wrong. But theres one rule that goes beyond tradition and into the field of scientific study of the brain: Black garments are slimming. It all comes down to how your visual system processes the light. The below holes in each square are the same in size, yet the white hole looks bigger than

21、the black hole.In the 1500s, Galileo Galilei noticed that some of the planets looked larger when viewed with the naked eye (肉眼) than they did when viewed through a telescope, making the white light of Venus (金星) appear eight to ten times larger than Jupiter (木星) in the night sky. He knew something s

22、trange must be going on with his vision to cause this illusion, but he wasnt sure what it was. Luckily, scientists never stopped wondering, and in 2014, they figured it out.Our visual system operates via two main channels: “on” neurons (神经元) that are sensitive to light things and “off” neurons that

23、are sensitive to dark things. When it came to the dark “off” neurons, the researchers found that they responded predictably to dark shapes on a light background the greater the contrast between the two, the more active these neurons were. But the light “on” neurons behaved unpredictably. Even with t

24、he same amount of contrast, light objects on a dark background caused a greater response in these neurons.This makes some sense, evolutionarily speaking. In the dark of night, youd want to be able to take in every bit of light you can get, so a visual system that enlarges light objects on a dark bac

25、kground could be very useful. However, its not that hard to see dark objects in the light of day. It has some effects in the colors of your clothes and in the appearance of the planets the brighter appearance of Venus in the night sky makes it look bigger than the darker Jupiter.1、What did Galileo G

27、Their behavior cant be predicted.CThey behave differently from person to person.DTheir activeness improves with the contrast of colors.3、What does the author think of the phenomenon?AIt makes people feel puzzled.BIt brings great harm to people.CIt is more common among youths.DIt is beneficial to peo

28、ples evolution.4、What is the text mainly about?AWhy we look thinner when in black.BWhat visual illusions bring to people.CHow we are affected by the fashion rules.DWhether peoples visual system is different.23（8分） Millions of girls grow up with the hope of becoming a famous singer.

Jessica Andrews is one of the few whose dreams have come true.Andrews first taste of success came at the age of 10. She won a talent competition in herhome town of Huntingdon, Tennessee, singing I W

30、ill Always Love You, originally sung by Whitney Houston. Houstons version of the song appeared on The Bodyguard sound track, which happened to be the first album Andrews ever bought.Within two years, talk of Andrews had spread to Nashville and caught the attention of producer Byron Gallimore, whose

31、credits include work with Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Jo Dee Messina. With Gallimore signed on to produce, Andrews soon had a recording contract (合同) with DreamWorks Records.Andrews professional career was launched with 1999s Heart Shaped World, recorded when she was 14 years old. The album included

32、 the country hit I Will Be There For You, which also appeared on The Prince of Egypt.

51、 hundreds of years in more than 100countries with over 2,000 species that can be eaten; in central Africa,up to 50% of dietary protein has comefrom insects,with their market value higher than many alternative sources of animal protein.Insects need to be large enough to make the effort of catching th
