21、Tommy, a 26-year-old chimp(猩猩),lives in a small cage in a used truck sales lot in New York. Retired from movie work and whatever else once occupied him, he has no chimp friends to keep him company — just a TV. He is worlds away from the rainforest of Western Africa, where chimps spend most of their lives in trees, hunting, and socializing together.
His owner hasn't broken any laws, but an animal rights group called the Nonhuman Rights Project (NhRP) is trying to change the view. The group says chimps have such a humanlike intelligence that they should be recognized as “legal persons" and be placed in an animal shelter and wander free.
You've probably heard the term “animal rights”, but animals don't actually have rights in many countries. Animal-welfare laws punish people who mistreat animals, but that's not the same as chimps having a right to liberty or anything else.
NhRP's first step is to ask a judge to end people's unjust arrest on behalf of Tommy and other privately owned chimps. If the court decides to recognize chimps as legal persons, NhRP's next step will be arguing for what rights the chimps should be granted. "The right that we believe they should have most of all is the right to bodily liberty," says Wise, a NhRP group member. "They should be able to choose how to live their lives.”
Tommy's owner, Pat Lavery, says he rescued Tommy from a careless owner about a decade ago and denies the chimp is mistreated or unhappy. "He likes being by himself," he says.
“There's a danger in making a jump to say they're just like people," says Richard Cupp, a professor who writes about animals and the law. "If we' re really focused on chimps being very, very smart, then who knows if maybe someday we might …say, ‘Hey, here's a particular human being that's not very smart at all, maybe the chimps have higher status than this person.’”
【1】What can we know about Tommy?
A．He is living a very lonely life.
B．He dislikes living in the rainforest.
C．He likes watching movies very much,
D．He was illegally bought by Pat Lavery.
【2】What can we infer from the text?
A．Great progress has been made on improving animal rights.
B．Pat Lavery is thought to mistreat Tommy by NhRP.
C．Animal rights are going from bad to worse.
D．Animal rights have been admitted in western countries.
【3】What's the final goal NhRP wants to achieve?
A．To ensure chimps' bodily safety.
B．To stop illegal hunting of chimps.
C．To help chimps find their families.
D．To help chimps enjoy their freedom.
【4】What's Richard Cupp's attitude towards NhRP's efforts to win rights for chimps?
A．Hopeful,
B．Uncaring.
C．Worried.
D．Supportive.
22、 When you’re choosing a college, a lot of factors probably may be considered: the school’s reputation, the classes offered, and the professors in your major, to name a few. However, considering the increasing competitiveness of universities to attract more and more applicants, many schools now offer extra benefits to be enjoyed by all of their students. Here are some of the coolest:
University of Missouri
When you think of a campus gym, you probably picture a room equipped with old weights and out-of-date machines.

24、A new study of older adults finds too much daytime napping (小睡) may signal an increasing risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Investigators from Brigham report a relationship between daytime napping and cognitive (认知的) aging: too much daytime napping predicts an increased future risk of Alzheimer’s, and Alzheimer’s speeds up the increase in daytime napping during aging.
“Daytime sleep behaviors of older adults are often ignored, and an agreement for daytime napping in clinical practice and health care is still lacking,” said Peng Li of the Medical Program in Brigham, “Our team calls for a closer attention to 24-hour sleep patterns — not only nighttime sleep but also daytime sleep—for tracking the health of older adults.”
Researchers at the Brigham recognized that all previous studies on Alzheimer’s disease assessed napping within a participant only once, and most of the studies were subjective and questionnaire-based. In the new study, more individuals, with an average age of 81, were involved. They were provided with Actical, a watch-like device, to wear on their wrist for up to 14 days. After napping periods were identified, the nap duration and frequency were calculated.
The results suggested that too much daytime napping may signal an increasing risk of Alzheimer’s, and that faster yearly increase in daytime napping may be a worsening sign of the disease.
Researchers acknowledge that although the method of the new study has been widely used in sleep field studies, they recognize that Polysomnography (多导睡眠记录仪) is the gold standard for sleep scoring. Moreover, the participants studied are older, and therefore, the findings may not be easily translated to younger people. In addition, future studies should test whether a direct intervention in daytime napping can lower the risk of Alzheimer’s or cognitive decline.
“We hope to draw more attention to daytime sleep patterns,” said co-senior author Kun Hu of the Medical Program. “Sleep changes are critical in shaping the internal changes in the brain.”
【1】What is the possible relationship between daytime napping and Alzheimer’s disease?
A．More daytime napping causes Alzheimer’s disease.
B．Alzheimer’s disease can be prevented by more daytime napping.
C．Alzheimer’s disease decreases the time spent on daytime napping.
D．More daytime napping indicates a higher risk of Alzheimer’s disease.
【2】What can we learn about the new study according to the passage?
A．The sample size was larger.
B．It only recorded the daytime napping.
C．The study was based on questionnaires.
D．Its findings can be applied to younger generations.
【3】What will interest the researchers in future studies?
A．The patterns of nighttime sleep.
B．The symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.
C．The application of the new study method.
D．The effect of an intervention in daytime napping.
【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A．Alzheimer’s: a Sign of Aging
B．Actical: a Device of Recording Napping
C．Closely Linked: Daytime Napping and Alzheimer’s
D．Slightly Different: Daytime Sleep and Nighttime Sleep

26、Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
British scientist Isaac Newton(1643-1727) once said, “If I have seen further, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.” And this year’s Nobel Prize in chemistry may have best explained these words.
This year’s prize was divided among three scientists-Frenchman Jean Pierre Sauvage, British-born Sir J. Fraser Stoddart and Dutch scientist Bernard L. Feringa. They were awarded the prize for creating the world’s smallest machines.
How small? Instead of being made of nails and bolts like regular machines, they are made of molecules. Instead of measuring in meters or centimeters, they measure in nanometers—one billionth of a meter-much thinner than a human hair.
But this was achieved neither overnight, nor alone.
Back in 1983, Sauvage, who is now a retired professor at the University of Strasbourg, France, started doing the research. He managed to join two ring-shaped molecules together to form a chain. The work is so hard and delicate that the Guardian describes it as like “building a Lego castle in the dark with boxing gloves”.
If what Sauvage had done was building the body of a car, what Stoddart managed to do 10 years later in 1991 was adding wheels to the car. Stoddart, who now works at Northwestern University, U.S., developed a structure known as “rotaxanes”, which meant that a ring of atoms could move around an axle.
And just like a car, the molecular machine needs a motor to run. So in 1999, Feringa, of the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, became the first person to create an actual molecular motor. The molecular machine was powered by electricity.
But what is the use of a machine so small that we can’t even see it? According to scientists, the machines can benefit various fields like the creation of new materials and medical treatment methods.
“There are endless opportunities,” Feringa told Reuters. “Think of a tiny micro-robot that a doctor in the future will inject into your blood and it will go to search for a cancer cell or deliver a drug, for instance.
