25、DNA is the whole "map" of the human body. It is something that all humans have, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.

People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In I860, Mr Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called "genes"(基因) in our body. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that those small parts are really messages. They’re written in the DNA with a special language.

In 1961, another two scientists found the first "word" that they could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell (细胞)to build its parts, the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one "word" means, we can help to save people from several illnesses. So the more we understand, the more doctors will be able to do.

Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more "words" and find out more information, we will use it in the wrong way, just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people getting jobs.

【1】 The two scientists found ______in 1961.

A. all the words in the DNA map

B. small things called "genes" in our body

C. the first "word" they could understand in that language

D. those small parts arc written in the DNA with a special language

【2】How can we help sick people if we understand more "words" in the DNA map?

A. Make better medicine.

B. Make them get jobs.

C. Make maps for them.

D. Make them attractive.

【3】Which one is NOT TRUE according to the article?

A. We look like our parents because of "genes" in our body.

B. We have understood what all the words in the DNA map do.

C. DNA is the whole "map" of the human body.

D. DNA tells the cell to build its parts.

【4】What do people think about this research about DNA?

A. It can be only bad.

B. It can be only good.

C. It can be good but won't work.

D. It can be good and bad

26、If you’re working to become better or hoping to make a change, you’ll probably hear your family and friends say “go big or go home”. But sometimes big goals can shoot you in the foot. So, is it good to set high expectations?

Having high expectations could be beneficial. It can motivate (激励) you and increase your productivity. When you have high expectations for something, you’ll probably behave in ways which can help make your expectations come true. For example, if you believe that you’re able to score an A in a test, you will probably spend a lot of time working on it. And when you have to complete a written task before the deadline, having expectations on yourself can motivate you to keep on going. Another benefit of setting high expectations is that as you start meeting your expectations, you’ll be even more motivated to set higher goals for yourself. In addition, having high expectations on yourself doesn’t only benefit you. You’re likely to encourage others to be more productive! While there’s plenty of good that comes from setting high expectations, going overboard and being unrealistic in expectations can be detrimental.

Having high expectations sometimes can cause psychological (心理的) problems, such as worry and unhappiness. The findings of a study showed that a group of students who were expected to do perfectly by their parents experienced serious stress and anxiety (焦虑). Great expectations can also lead to great disappointment. This is especially true when you set expectations on other people whose actions you cannot control. For example, if you’re feeling alone and you call up your friends, you surely expect them to make you feel better. When this fails to happen, you will feel disappointed and displeased with your friends. To avoid this situation, you should accept your friends for who they are and set your expectations around reality.

It is hard to manage expectations, but the main goal is to find the perfect balance in setting a more realistic and achievable expectation. Learn to let go of things, especially when they don’t turn out the way you hoped. Most importantly, don’t be afraid to celebrate your victories no matter how small they are.

【1】If you have a high expectation on yourself, you will probably _________.

A．discourage others

B．work hard to realize it

C．be more confident than before

D．have high expectations on others

【2】The word “detrimental” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_________ ”.

A．harmful

B．unusual

C．disappointing

D．impossible

【3】The writer probably agrees that _________.

A．it’s wise to ask your friends to help you set expectations

B．stress is very likely to help you achieve your expectations

C．parents should avoid setting expectations on their children

D．we should set expectations on others according to the reality

【4】What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?

A．To offer advice on how to realize expectations.

B．To explain why people like to set high expectations.

C．To lead people to take a right attitude towards expectations.

D．To encourage people to set high expectations for themselves.
