2．When Allen invited me to go on a camping trip to the mountains，I imagined a wooden cabin overlooking a lake，with a warm fireplace，hot chocolate，and soft beds.But my happy image became a nightmare when Allen and his older brother，Leo，showed up with a truck filled with camping equipment----tents，sleeping bags，and water bottles.We were going on survival training!
Leo was keen to leave the city behind us and urged us to hurry.Several hours later，as we drove through the forest，the mountains seemed bigger than I remembered；the trees were larger，and the environment felt more threatening.
At the trailhead，Leo tied a sleeping bag onto my already heavy pack and lectured Allen and me about hiking rules.Then，with Leo in front，we set off along the narrow and steep dirt track that wound up the mountains.
After 6 hours of climbing，we finally reached the top.My legs were aching and I dropped my pack and complained but there was no time to rest."We need to set up camp quickly，" said Leo. "There are dark clouds
coming in.A storm's on its way.
I thought he was kidding，but Leo was quite serious.He and Allen worked expertly，while I stood around and pretended to help，thunder rumbling（發(fā)出隆隆聲）in the distance.We just finished putting up the tents when it hit.The wind，thunder，and lightning were relentless（持續(xù)強(qiáng)烈的）.
Leo，sensing that I was scared，started telling us some stories about his camping adventures.But each time lightning lit up the tent and the thunder echoed，I jumped. "Don't worry.Summer storms pass quickly，" Leo said，trying to comfort me. "And at least the rain will keep the bears away，" he said with a teasing smile，which was less comforting.
And just as quickly as the storm came rushing in，it passed，and we exited the tent.The view was incredible---- I could see for miles.As darkness set in，I stared in wonder at the millions of stars glowing in the night sky.
I wouldn't lie ---- I was still wishing for a hot shower and a soft bed，but as I gazed upward at the Milky Way，I knew this was an adventure I would never forget.

3．For centuries，medical pioneers have refined a variety of methods and medicines to treat sickness，injury，and disability，enabling people to live longer and healthier lives.
"A salamander（a small lizard-like animal）can grow back its leg.Why can't a human do the same？" asked Peruvian-born surgeon Dr.Anthony Atala in a recent interview.The question，a reference to work aiming to grow new limbs for wounded soldiers，captures the inventive spirit of regenerative medicine.This innovative field seeks to provide patients with replacement body parts.These parts are not made of steel；they are the real things - living cells，tissue，and even organs.
The field of regenerative medicine builds on work conducted in the early twentieth century with the first successful transplants（移植）of donated human soft tissue and bone.However，donor organs are not always the best option.First of all，they are in short supply，and many people die while waiting for an available organ；in the United States alone，more than 100，000 people are waiting for organ transplants.Secondly，a patient's body may ultimately reject the transplanted donor orgjye.ai.An advantage of regenerative medicine is that the tissues are grown from a patient's own cells and will not be rejected by the body's immune system.
Today several labs are working to create bio-artificial body parts.Scientists at Columbia and Yale Universities have grown a jawbone and a lung.At the University of Minnesota，Doris Taylor has created a beating bio-artificial rat heart.Dr.Atala's medical team has reported long-term success with bioengineered bladders implanted into young patients with spina bifida （脊柱裂）.And at the University of Michigan，H.David Humes has created an artificial kidney.
So far，the kidney procedure has only been used successfully with sheep，but there is hope that one day similar kidney will be implantable in a human patient.The continuing research of scientists such as these may eventually make donor organs unnecessary and，as a result，significantly increase individuals' chances of survival.
（1）What does the underlined word "regenerative" in paragraph 2 probably mean？
A．reproduced
B．replaced
C．recovered
D．reviewed
（2）Why are donor organs not the best choice for patients？
A．Because there are not enough donor organs and patients' bodies may reject them.
B．Because donor organs are too expensive and patients can't afford them.
C．Because some patients are in such a serious situation that they can't stand an operation.
D．Because donors themselves may have some kinds of illness and may pass it to the receivers.
（3）How does the author prove that many labs are exploring the regenerative medicine？
A．By giving data.
B．By comparing effects.
C．By giving examples.
D．By showing different ideas.
（4）What is the writer's attitude towards regenerative medicine？
A．Negative.
B．Doubtful.
C．Indifferent.
D．Hopeful.組卷：3引用：2難度：0.5

Recently I graduated from high school， and as a gift I received a huge hunch of flowers， 40 to be exact! I had so many that I didn't know what to do with them． The next weekend my niece and nephew， Sue and Mike， aged 6 and 7， came and suddenly I had an idea． I might let them give out these flowers to people they met on the street， and in this way they could learn how to be friendly to others． So I told them about my plan and explained that these flowers would make people feel happy and smile． They loved the idea and were eager to have a try． So at once we took every single flower and tied a smile card to it． We then went to the street with the flowers．
The first flower went to a policeman． As soon as she saw the policeman， my niece ran up to him and handed him a flower． His smile was so big， but hers was even bigger!
In no time， we neared the end of our flowers． It was lunch time and we went to Subway for lunch． There the kids gave a flower to the waitress， who was really excited to receive the flower． As we were eating our lunch， the waitress came up to the kids with two big chocolate cookies! She said the chocolate cookies were for them and that she really liked the flower! As they ate the cookies， my niece and nephew looked at me with the biggest smiles I had ever seen．
