    Have you ever heard about Alice Moore? She is a teenager entrepreneur (创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids' teeth, instead of destroying them.
    It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, "Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it?" With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.
    With her dad's permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.
    Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore's product—CanCandy.
    As CanCandy's success grows, so does Moore's credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she's also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.
    Meanwhile, with her parents, help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn't driven primarily by profit Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilieCandy's profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore.
4. How did Moore respond to her dad's warning?
A. She tried to find a way out. B. She argued with him.
C. She paid no attention. D. She chose to consult dentists.
5. What is special about CanCandy? 
A. It is sweeter than other candies.
B. It is free of sweeteners.
C. It is beneficial to dental health.
D. It is produced to a dentists, recipe.
6. What does the underlined word "secure" mean?
A. hear about. B. make sure. C. take away. D. set off
7. What can we learn from Alice Moore's story? 
A. A youth is to be regarded with respect.
B. Fame is a great thirst of the young.
C. Success means getting personal desires satisfied.
D. Positive thinking and action result in success.
C
    Facebook chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg and Anna Maria Chavez, chief of American Girl Scouts, are leading a campaign to discourage the use of the word "bossy". Does the term destroy the confidence of young girls?
    The campaign claims that terms like "bossy" are improperly applied to females, preventing schoolgirls from seeing themselves as future "leaders". From its first application, the word has been definitely connected more with women than with men. It first appeared in 1882, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, mentioning "a lady manager who was extremely bossy". As late as 2008, the word appeared in reference to females four times more often than males, claim the Ban Bossy campaigners. "To me, the reference is always in association with women," says Helen Trim, director of Fresh Minds. "I have three brothers and my family still call me 'bossy' today." Her father is the only other family member who could be considered in that way, says Trim, but nobody would ever call him so.
    Some educators recommend that the word should be reclaimed, rather than banned. "But the thing with 'bossy' is that there's an infantile (幼稚的) element to it," says Sara Mills, professor at Sheffield University. "You think of 'bossy' as being like a little kid who's claiming more than he has the right to claim."
    It's not just "bossy" under fire. "Pushy" is another target. The implication is that women shouldn't present themselves as powerful and confident, Mills suggests, which some women are willing to listen to and accept. Trim points out that many modern female business role models are able to be bosses without being labeled "bossy". And she rarely, if ever, hears the word used within her company. But she says that the damage may be done much earlier in a woman's life. "It does come about from those early teenage years." She says. "I think it's impossible to ban a word, but if people are replacing it with words like 'confidence' or 'assertiveness', we would all be in a much better place."
8. More evidence is provided to show "bossy" is more applied to females by ______.
A. the Oxford English Dictionary B. the Ban Bossy campaigners
C. Helen Trim at Fresh Minds D. some experts in education
9. Trim's family still consider her bossy because ______.
A. she is expected to lead in her family
B. she is the boss of her company
C. she is a powerful and confident female
D. her father considers her that way
10. The underlined part "under fire" most probably means ______.
A. definitely replaced B. strongly criticized
C. improperly applied D. eagerly expected
11. How does the author sound when referring to the campaign against "bossy"? 
A. Objective． B. Angry． C. Doubtful． D. Optimistic．
D
    A new study has shown that people who regularly eat oranges are less likely to develop macular degeneration (黄斑变性) than people who do not eat oranges. Researchers at the Westmead Institute interviewed more than 2, 000 Australian adults aged over 50 and followed them over a 15-year period. The research showed that people who ate at least one serving of oranges every day had more than a 60% reduced risk of developing late macular degeneration 15 years later. Even eating an orange once a week seems to offer significant benefits.
    Lead researcher associate professor Gopinath said, "The data shows that flavonoids (类黄酮) found in oranges appear to have a big role to play in reducing the chance of macular degeneration." Flavonoids can be found in almost all fruits and vegetables and they are useful in reducing inflammation (炎症) and stress within the body. "We examined common foods that contain flavonoids such as tea, apples, red wine. Significantly, the data did not show a relationship between other food sources protecting the eyes against the disease," she said.
    Gopinath said that until now most research has focused on the effects of common nutrients such as vitamins C, E and A on the eyes. "Our research is different because we focused on the relationship between flavonoids and macular degeneration."
    Macular degeneration is the name given to a group of eye diseases that cause progressive loss of central sight. It is the leading cause of blindness in Australia and affects about one in seven people over the age of 50. There is currently no cure for the disease.
    "Our research aims to understand why eye diseases occur, as well as the genetic and environmental conditions that may do harm to eyesight," Gopinath concluded.
12. How does the author introduce the research in Paragraph 1?
A. By listing the data． B. By analyzing causes．
C. By following time order． D. By describing the process．
13. What might matter most in protecting the eyes against macular degeneration?
A. The vitamins in oranges． B. The flavonoids in oranges．
C. The flavonoids in vegetables． D. The nutrition content in foods．
14. What made Gopinath's research different from others?
A. Study aims． B. Cooperative ways．
C. The age of subjects． D. The focus of research．
15. What's the best title of the text? 
A. Eye diseases catch Australian attention．
B. The effects of diet and nutrition on eyes．
C. An orange a day keeps the eye doctor away．
D. The leading cause of blindness in Australia．

   Sue and Johnsy had their art studio in Greenwich Village. In November, an unknown disease struck this village and Johnsy was seriously sick with it. The doctor took Sue aside and claimed, "She has one chance in ten. And that chance is for her to want to live."
    Sue came into Johnsy's room, only to find Johnsy's eyes were open, but they weren't watching her. Instead, she stared out the window and counted backwards: "Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
    "What are you counting, dear?" asked Sue. "They're falling faster now," replied Johnsy. "Three days ago there were almost a hundred. But now there are only five left. When the last one falls, I must go, too. Didn't the doctor tell you?"
    "Oh, I never heard of such nonsense. Now, try to take some broth (肉汤), and let yourself relax," quickly replied Sue. But Johnsy's mind was made up. "I don't want any broth. I just want to see the last leaf fall."
    "Try to sleep," said Sue. Then she went to fetch her neighbour Mr Behrman, a failed painter, to be a model for her drawing. In 40 years he had never produced the masterpiece he longed to paint. Sue told him about Johnsy's longing to slip away like the leaves. Behrman cried with disbelief, "Such a foolish idea! This is not a place in which Miss Johnsy shall lie sick. Someday I will create a masterpiece, and we shall all go away."
    Behrman and Sue looked out of the window at the vine (藤蔓) and noticed that there was just one remaining leaf. Then they looked at each other for a moment without speaking as if thinking of something artistic. What's more, a cold rain was falling, mixed with snow.
    The next morning, Johnsy woke and asked for the curtains to be opened. One leaf remained on the vine, bravely holding on in the wind and rain. "It will fall today, for sure. And I will die with it."
    That day in the afternoon, the doctor came, not for Johnsy, but for Mr Behrman, who was found lying in bed helplessly with pain, his shoes and clothing wet through and icy cold, and some brushes, paints, a lantern and a ladder on the ground.
    The following day, Johnsy commanded that the curtain be raised again.
    After Behrman's funeral, Sue came to Johnsy who was sipping her soup, and said, "I have something to tell you."

43.【答案】      The following day, Johnsy commanded that the curtain be raised again. Miraculously, the leaf was still there, clinging to its stem against the wall, like a strong-willed soldier holding his arms. Staring at the scene for a while, Johnsy turned to Sue and said in a soft voice, "I've been a silly girl, Sue. It is definitely a crime to want to die. Now, could you bring me a little broth, and help me sit up." At this, a flicker of a smile crossed Sue's face, as she knew inside the embers of hope, the fire of life had been rekindled. "Of course, dear," responded Sue with great relief. With a strong desire for life and careful nursing, Johnsy was on the road to recovery. Mr Behrman, however, failed in the fight against the disease which claimed his life mercilessly.
    After Behrman's funeral, Sue came to Johnsy who was sipping her soup, and said, "I have something to tell you."  Seated on the bed, Johnsy listened to her attentively. "Mr Behrman died for art and also for you, dear." Sue paused for a moment, eyes moist with tears. "Look out of the window at the last leaf. Didn't you wonder why it never fluttered or moved when the wind blew? Ah, dear, it's Behrman's last masterpiece. He painted it there the night when the last leaf fell." Upon hearing this, Johnsy felt as if she were struck by a sudden thunder, too shocked and moved to utter a single word. It didn't occur to her that in an attempt to cheer her up, Mr Behrman had created such an amazing piece of art at the cost his own life. She decided at that moment that she would cherish and live her life to the utmost and embrace this world with kindness and gratitude.
【解析】一、文意梳理
【原文大意】
本文是以叶子为线索展开的。文章主要讲述了一位画家得了重病，躺在病床上，看着窗外藤蔓的叶子，她说叶子落完，她的生命就结束了。她的邻居为了让她心存对生命的希望，在藤蔓上画下了一片叶子，而他自己却生病了。
【段落续写】
①根据第一段首句内容“第二天，Johnsy命令再次拉开窗帘。”可知，第一段可以描写最后一片叶子给了Johnsy精神支柱，她开始慢慢恢复。
②根据第二段首句内容：Behrman的葬礼后，Sue走到正在喝汤的Johnsy跟前说：“我有事要告诉你。”可知，第二段可以描写Sue告诉Johnsy最后一片叶子始终没有落下的真相，以及Johnsy的感悟
二、线索厘清
【续写线索】
拉开窗帘——看见最后一片叶子仍然在那里——重新燃气生命之火——逐渐恢复——Behrman去世——Sue告诉Johnsy叶子的真相——Johnsy很震惊——感悟
