Often called “the Lady with the Lamp”, Florence Nightingale was a caring nurse and a leader. She is mostly known for making hospitals a cleaner and safer place to be.
Although her parents were from England, Florence Nightingale was born in 1820 in Italy while they were traveling. Growing up in a wealthy family, Florence Nightingale was home schooled by her father and expected to get married at a young age. However, Nightingale believed she received a “calling” from God to help the poor and the sick. Despite the initial disapproval, her father eventually allowed her to go to Germany and then Paris to study. By the time she was 33, Nightingale was already making a name for herself in the nursing community.
When the Crimean War began in 1854, the British, with the lack of medical supplies, overcrowding, and dirty conditions, were unprepared to deal with a large number of sick and injured soldiers. The Secretary of War, Sidney Herbert asked Nightingale to manage a group of nurses that would go to treat the wounded soldiers. When they got there, the doctors were unwelcoming because they did not want to work with female nurses. However, as the number of patients increased, the doctors needed their help. The nurses brought supplies, nutritious food and cleanliness to the military hospital. Nightingale was known for carrying a lamp and checking on the soldiers at night, so they gave her the nickname “the Lady with the Lamp”. Within six months, Nightingale and her team transformed the hospital, and the death rate went down significantly because of their work.
When Nightingale returned from the war, she continued to improve the conditions of hospitals. She wrote 150 books, pamphlets (小册子), and reports on health-related issues. In her later years, often bedridden from illness, she continued to advocate for safe nursing practices until her death. Although Florence Nightingale died on August 13th, 1910, at the age of 90, her legacy continues.
28. What did Nightingale's parents expect her to do at a young age
A. To travel in Italy. B. To get married early.
C. To study in Germany. D. To help the poor and the sick.
29. How did the doctors react when the nurse team arrived at first
A. Unwelcoming. B. Passionate. C. Positive. D. Cooperative.
30. Why was Nightingale nicknamed “the Lady with the Lamp”
A. She liked collecting lamps.
B. She often stayed up late for study.
C. She usually checked on the soldiers at night carrying a lamp.
D. She brought lamps for the military hospital to use.
31. What will be the probable content for the next paragraph
A. The books Nightingale wrote.
B. The difficulties Nightingale encountered before.
C. The great things Nightingale did during her lifetime.
D. The continued impact Nightingale has made.
D
Homes are usually warmed with radiators (暖气片). Some homes are warmed by floor heating. Now, a new way of heating is being developed by using the “wallpaper” on your walls. This wallpaper is not decorative. It actually goes under and not over the wall-electrically heats a room. And this type of heating technology heats objects, even people, instead of the air and this helps you feel warmer.
The electric heating panels which are hidden in the wall are connected to the main electrical panels of your home. Each room can be used independently through an app so you do not have to heat unused rooms. It takes around 20 minutes to heat a room.
With rising prices for home heating, the panels seem like the right way to go. “It makes me happy that I don’t rely on gas.” Kris Bilski, an early user, said. An estimated 23 million homes in the UK are connected to the gas grid (网) but the government wants to phase out gas-fired boilers by 2035. Home heating is responsible for 17 percent of greenhouse gas emissions so removing fossil fuel-based heating will help the environment.
The new electric heating systems are available for private homes and the company is currently testing the new technology in public housing in some cities. The versions being tested can be installed (安装) while people are still living in the apartment so it makes installation a lot easier.
Heating your home with this type of technology does not heat your water, so an additional heating system is required. You can use an energy efficient heater.
While the wallpaper is greener, electricity in the UK is very costly. So it is not an economic way to heat homes unless there is a renewable energy source like solar panels used. Still, reducing the dependence on fossil fuels will go a long way to green the UK and help the country meet its climate targets.
32. What is special about the wallpaper compared with radiators
A. It is decorative. B. It is unseen.
C. It is traditional. D. It is more efficient.
33. What does the underlined phrase “phase out” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Restore gradually. B. Improve greatly.
C. Stop using. D. Complete developing.
34. What is one of the advantages of wallpaper heating system
A. It’s easy to be adjusted. B. It looks beautiful.
C. It heats up instantly. D. It fits all buildings.
35. What is the author’s attitude towards the use of this wallpaper heating system in the UK
A. Disapproving. B. Unknown. C. Enthusiastic. D. Doubtful.

Characteristics of an excellent scientist
The dictionary defines a scientist as a person having professional knowledge on one or more sciences, especially natural science or physical science. It also defines a scientist as someone who uses scientific methods. 36
Curiosity.
37 Scientists such as Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse discovered things mainly because they wanted to know how things work. Without a drive to ask questions or even wonder, a scientist will never get to the first stage of the scientific process.
Patience.
Becoming a scientist takes a long time. There are very few jobs that take longer than this one. 38 If you’re an instant-gratification type of person, this may not be the best choice for you.
Ethical (道德的) qualities.
In order to truly discover and use knowledge for the greater good, a scientist must have a desire to improve people’s life as well as the environment, since they are linked and they can affect one another in the long run. 39
Sticking to an old belief contradicted with evidence is dishonest. However, that belief shouldn’t be changed without powerful evidence.
40
An excellent scientist even takes notes of the smallest observation and keeps it in mind. He / She can work well alone or in groups depending on what’s needed, and he / she also needs to communicate thoughts on paper and verbally. Networking connects him / her with colleagues working on similar projects where he / she may discover something new.
A. Working habits. B. A scientist must report findings honestly regardless of personal interests or public opinion. C. An excellent scientist must be very curious about things. D. You still have much scientific research to do even if you received education on science. E. One of the main places that many scientists work in is the research laboratory. F. Working time. G. Let’s look at some characteristics of an excellent scientist.

I grew up in a large family of twelve siblings (兄弟姐妹). We weren’t poor by most standards, but things were definitely hard for us. Back in those days, hot-lunch was a luxury for the wealthier kids, and hot-lunch buyers sat separately from the students who brought cold lunch. My siblings and I brought lunch from home every day: thick slices of homemade bread, three cookies and a small apple. We would look on longingly as the rich kids proudly sat down with their hot-lunch. I never said anything, but my first grade teacher, Mrs. Caruso, must have seen the desire in my eyes. One day she quietly pressed a note into my hand and whispered, “Give this to your mother.”
I hurried home and gave my mom the note. She read it and smiled. “Well, Mrs. Caruso said because of all your hard work, she wants to buy your lunch tomorrow.” The next day, I proudly carried my tray of chicken across the cafeteria and took my seat at the hot-lunch table. Honestly, the food wasn’t as great as I had imagined, but I was still very happy because of Mrs. Caruso’s kindness.
One rainy day, Mrs. Caruso asked me to stay after school. My stomach instantly dropped to the floor. Did she know I hadn’t finished my math homework After the other students had left, Mrs. Caruso said she was going to finish her work and drive me home. It was raining, and she knew I had a long walk. We pulled up to my house and she got out, putting a few bags on the porch. “Tell your mom I had a few extra things for her," she said. Then she drove away. Inside the bags were clothes, toys, and books.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
That summer day, Mrs. Caruso invited me and my siblings to her home. __________________________________
