Mary Engle Pennington was the greatest authority on refrigeration in the early twentieth
century.Over the course of a 40-year career,Pennington changed the way Americans transported
and stored food.
Pennington was born on October 8, 1872. At age 12, her interest in science began when she read a library book on medical chemistry.In 1890,she enrolled in(登記入學(xué))Towne Scientific School.In two years, she completed the requirements for a bachelor's degree. Pennington received her PhD in chemistry from the University of Pennsylvania in 1895. Then she spent two more years at the University of Pennsylvania studying chemical botany.
In 1901, she founded the Philadelphia Clinical Laboratory, where she conducted bacteriological and chemical research. In 1904, Pennington headed the lab for the Philadelphia Department of Health and Charities. She examined all phases(階段) of milk production.
Because of public demand for safer products, the US government passed the 1906 Pure Food and Drug Act.Harvey W. Wiley,chief of the Bureau of Chemistry of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), sought to fill the new position of first chief of USDA's new Food Research Laboratory. Wiley knew who he wanted for the job. He persuaded Pennington to take a civil service exam.After receiving the highest score,Pennington was hired.
While working at the lab as a bacteriological chemist, Pennington developed standards for
inspecting milk and preserving dairy products. She invented new methods for transporting eggs.
The Food Research Laboratory set standards for federal laws in the cold-storage industry.
In 1917,the United States entered World War I. The War Food Administration transported food to troops by railroad cars and needed help keeping the food fresh. They asked Pennington for help. She measured temperatures and investigated the construction of the crude(簡(jiǎn)陋的) refrigeration methods on hundreds of train cars. After crossing the United States over 500 times, Pennington was able to improve the design and efficiency of refrigerated railway boxcar. For her service during the war, Pennington received a Notable Service Medal in 1919.
21. What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Pennington's educational background.
B. Pennington's pioneering research.
C. Pennington's working conditions.
D. Pennington's happy childhood.
22.What did Wiley think of Pennington?
A.She was the best chemist.
B. She was a good cooperator.
C. She was good at taking exams.
D. She was qualified as the head of a lab.
23.What did Pennington mainly do when she worked at the Food Research Laboratory?
A. She drew up an important act.
B. She designed the first refrigerated boxcar.
C. She examined all phases of milk production.
D.She set standards for the food storage industry.
24.What made Pennington get a Notable Service Medal?
A. Her contribution during the war.
B.Her discovery of rare bacteria.
C.Her invention of refrigerators.
D. Her donation to charities.

Say “Sit” to your dog, and he' ll likely sit on the floor. But would he respond correctly if the
word were spoken by a stranger, or someone with a thick accent? A new study shows he will,
suggesting dogs understand spoken words in a clever and complicated way long thought unique to humans.
Holly Root-Gutteridge, a biologist, and her colleagues ran a test. The researchers filmed 42 dogs of different breeds as they sat with their owners near an audio speaker that played noncommand words with similar sounds, such as “had”, “hid”, and “who'd”。 The words were spoken-not by the dog's owner--but by several strangers, men and women of different ages and with different accents.
In the video above, the dog Max turns quickly and listens seriously when he hears a woman say“had” for the first time. But as other women with different accents repeat the word, he loses interest, indicating he knows they are all saying the same word. When a speaker says a new word, like “who'd”, Max cheers up again, but his attention flags when a new voice returns to saying “had”。 Together,these reactions suggest dogs recognize words regardless of the speaker-and that they don't need any training to do it, the team reports today in Biology Letters.
“It's wonderful-and novel-to see research looking at dogs' reactions to words that are not commands or requests,” says Alexandra Horowitz, a researcher at Barnard College in New York City.Because of the nature of the test,however,the scientists cannot show that the dogs “understood” what the words meant, Horowitz points out. “But the work clearly demonstrates that dogs are listening to us,” she says, even when our speech is not about them.
25. What can we learn from this study?
A.Dogs can hear some simple words.
B. Dogs can hear words like humans.
C. Dogs cannot understand a stranger.
D.Dogs know their owners' meaning.
26. What do the researchers do for the dogs in the study?
A.Record their sounds.
B.Record their reactions.
C.Train their hearing ability.
D.Train their learning ability.
27. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A.The result of the study.
B.A dog filmed in the study.
C.An example of the research.
D.Different reactions of the dogs.
28. What is Horowitz's attitude towards the study?
A.Objective.
B.Favorable.
C.Opposed.
D.Unclear.

Back in the 20th century,“the future” meant flying cars and food pills. Now, the future is all
about brain uploads.
The idea is that, one day, we will be able to change all our memories and thoughts into advanced software programs. Once the human brain can run on a computer, we will live forever. Sounds cooler than a flying car, right? Wrong. If they ever exist, uploads will be hell(地獄)。
In recent decades, scientists and philosophers have started to take a serious interest in the idea of digital versions of brains. Massive research undertakings like the Human Brain Project aim to “simulate(模擬)the human brain in software.
There are plenty of medical applications for a brain simulation. Doctors could use it to model diseases or to test treatments. Neurologists could study it to understand how the human brain works. This isn't what people like Google's director of engineering Ray Kurzweil want,though. As he has said in a lot of places, he is looking for upload tech that will make him immortal (不朽的)。
Let's take Kurzweil seriously and assume that someday, a person- let's call him Boris- will change his own brain into a format suitable for running in devices such as a computer or a robot.
Now Boris's brain can live forever inside some kind of virtual world like Minecraft,which looks and feels to him like reality. That means his entire universe is dependent on people or companies who run or manage servers, such as Amazon Web Services,to survive.
Boris is going to be subjected to software updates that could change his thoughts. That isn't the only possible danger. Many other things could also happen if Boris's brain got stuck inside a.
robot. He could be reprogrammed as a street cleaner, forced to mop Liverpool's gutters for weeks,
or turned into assembly line arms for a factory that builds Tesla cars.
After all that, is Boris really himself anymore? There is a Boriseque piece of software that might “l(fā)ive” for a long time, but is it really a continuation of Boris the person? And what kind of rights does Boris's uploaded brain have? He might become the property (財(cái)產(chǎn)) of whoever owns the server that runs him.
Becoming an upload won't allow Boris to live forever. Instead, Boris will die with his body, and a copy of Boris's brain will be stored on a piece of technology.And, of course,technology dies, so immortality isn't guaranteed.
29. What does the author think if Ray Kurzweil's expectation?
A. He believes it is a worthy cause.
B. He is uninterested in discussing it.
C. He thinks it is way too unrealistic.
D.He is against it because of its high cost.
30. What does the underlined phrase “be subjected to” in Paragraph 7 mean?
A.Be affected by.
B. Be replaced by.
C.Be polished by.
D. Be accompanied by.
31. What will happen to Boris according to the author?
A.He will be treated properly
B.He will achieve immortality.
C.He will face an uncertain future.
D.He will take control of technology.
32. What is the best title for the text?
A.Will technology die?
B. What does “the future”mean?
C.Store your memories forever.
D. Stop trying to upload your brain.

Accidental Charitable Donations
You know how you hold on to some stupid kitchen item for like eight years, then decide as you've used it only once to donate it to Goodwill? Then the next week, you find yourself in burning need of that garlic press (壓蒜器)。
Now imagine that garlic press was worth $13,000. 33. Here are three of those stories- some with happy endings, and others where people wish they'd never cleaned out their closets(柜櫥)。
An 80-year-old Illinois man was getting rid of some clothes and decided a suit was unattractive. After he dropped it and other discarded (丟棄的)items off at Goodwill and went home to enjoy his tidy house, the man realized he had made a $13,000 mistake. Not trusting the . banks, he had sewn his entire life savings into the lining of an old suit, the suit he had decided to donated just hours earlier. He immediately returned to the store. 34._
If you're shopping at a Goodwill store in Illinois, be sure to check the pockets of the clothes, because valuables are lift at second-hand stores in the USA quite often. In 2008, a worker at a store in Glen Carbon discovered $7,500 in cash in a donated shoebox. 35._ His parents had recently died and he had thrown the box in the “to donate" pile without examining its contents.
36. A bride-to-be in San Diego hollowed out a book to use as a hiding place for jewelry she planned to wear at her upcoming wedding. She also hid about $7,000 along with it. Perhaps on a cleaning spree to make room for wedding gifts, the bride cleared out a bunch of books and donated them to a Salvation Army store. 37 And.fortunately, she managed to get back her missing valuables.
A. However, it was nowhere to be found.
B. The man was still looking for it, actually.
C.She called as soon as she realized her mistake.
D. Such stories happen at other charity shops, too.
E. People accidentally give away valuables surprisingly often.
F. Spokespeople said that finding an amount this large was quite rare.
G. By examining some bits of paper left in the box, they were able to find the donor.
