He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”‎ ‎“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (坚忍不拔的), by pushing on steadily.”‎ Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky.

His workmates gave a nickname (绰号) “Four dollars a bucket (桶)” to him, for he was always used to leaving an advertisement of his company “Four dollars a bucket of oil” below his name whenever and wherever he wrote down his name.‎ As time went by, people forgot his real name. Later, when Rockefeller, the board chairman of the oil company, heard of it, he was very surprised, so he invited Albert to come to his office.‎ ‎“Some people give you a nickname for ‘Four dollars a bucket’. Why aren’t you angry?” asked Rockefeller with some puzzlement in his eyes.‎ ‎“Oh! Mr. Rockefeller! I like this nickname very much, because ‘Four dollars a bucket’ is our company’s advertisement. As long as someone calls me ‘Four dollars a bucket’ once, I think it’s a free advertisement for our company. I have no reason to get angry. Don’t you think so, Mr. Rockefeller?”‎ ‎“Oh! What a fantastic man!” Rockefeller said excitedly when hearing Albert’s words. “Young man, work harder! You must succeed in the future! I believe in you!”‎ Five years later, Albert became the second board chairman after Rockefeller.‎ Later Albert said in one of his reports, “I don’t think we should feel frustrated when we have no way to do the world-shaking things. We should treat every thing actively because maybe our future success will begin from a small thing!”‎ ‎28．What was Albert in the oil company at the beginning?‎ A．A chairman. B．A worker. C．A manager. D．An assistant.‎ ‎29．Why wasn’t Albert angry at his nickname?‎ A．He could become famous. B．He liked to have a nickname.‎ C．It could make his workmates happy.

However, they believe the experiment is not just a creative concept for astronauts, it’s also important for the development of drugs and yeast-containing food, like bread.‎ ‎“The idea started out with a few laughs among a group of friends,” said Neeki Ashari, a fifth-year bioengineering students at UC San Diego. “We all appreciate the craft beer. When we heard that there was an opportunity to design an experiment that would go up on India’s moonlander, w e thought we could combine our hobby with the competition by focusing on the practicality of yeast in outer space.”‎ The preparation work for the beer — up to the stage of adding yeast — will all be done on Earth, and rather than separating the fermentation ( 发酵) and carbonation stage of making beer, the team plans to combine them.‎ This removes the need to release CO2 accumulated in the process, which may result in cleanliness and safety issues out in space.‎ If selected, Team Original Gravity will be the first to make beer in outer space, and the fermentation will take place in a container no bigger than a soda can.‎ All teams competing for the place will showcase their ideas in Bangalore, India, in March.‎ Sadly, you won’t be enjoying moon beer in your local craft beer bar anytime soon, as no samples will be brought back. However, this small experiment could provide important data on just how practical it is for us to make and create our own resources on other planets and moons by learning how consumables (消耗品) behave in different environments.‎ ‎32．How did the students feel when they got the chance to design the experiment ?‎ A．Excited. B．Nervous. C．Confident. D．Casual.‎ ‎33．What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 6 refer to?‎ A．The mixing of two stages. B．Adding yeast on Earth.‎ C．The preparation work on Earth. D．Fermentation and carbonation.‎ ‎34．What can we learn about the experiment from the passage?‎ A．It has been designed based on similar experiments.‎ B．It’s quite competitive compared with other designs.‎ C．It’s design has already been approved by TeamIndus.‎ D．Its process was adapted to make it safer and greener.‎ ‎35．What does the author think of the students ’ idea?‎ A．It seems like a pipe dream. B．It’s extremely complicated.‎ C．It’s meaningful and hopeful. D．It’s creative but impractical.‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ Are you always embarrassedat social events？Or do you often struggle (挣扎)to enter into conversations because you are shy？If so，your social life and career may have been influenced in some way. 21．Then，you’ll be able to enter into conversations with confidence.‎ Behave like a social person.
