2．Jack Andraka was 15 when he came up with an idea for a new way to test for pancreatic（胰腺）cancer.When Andraka was 14，a family friend died of the disease，and this affected him deeply.This kind of cancer is particularly serious because there is no test you can have done to find it in the early stages.By the time standard tests determine you have the disease，it is often too late.Realizing that this was the case，Andraka decided to try to develop a test that might catch problems at the earliest stages.
The road ahead looked difficult for Andraka.He was still a high school student，and he wanted to create something that no one else had done.But Andraka read endlessly about the disease，wrote a proposal for his idea，and sent it out to 200 cancer researchers.Only one professor，Dr.Anirban Maitra，responded positively.Dr.Maitra agreed to work with Andraka on his idea，giving him guidance and access to a laboratory.
The next big reward for Andraka's perseverance was winning the grand prize at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair.This great award is given to young innovators who have developed a world-changing idea.Developing the test is likely to take many years，but Andraka hopes the test will eventually improve people's lives and maybe save them.
Jack Andraka is not alone as a young innovator.After all，there were 1，499 other contestants for the Intel award，and all of them had ground-breaking ideas.For Andraka，having a family that loves science and encourages creative thinking gave him an advantage.But the key for Andraka is that reading，research，and discovery are just plain fun，and the chance to improve the world around him in the process makes it even better.
（1）Why did Andraka decide to develop a test for pancreatic cancer？
A．His friend's encouragement.

D．An important test.
（2）What difficulty did Andraka meet at the beginning of his research？
A．Lack of positive replies from experts.
B．Heavy pressure from his schoolwork.

D．Great need of money to develop a test.
（3）Which of the following leads to Andraka's award winning？
A．The competition with other contestants.
B．His passion for success.
C．The support from his family.
D．His continuous efforts for discovery.
（4）What can we learn from Andraka's story？
A．Practice makes perfect.
B．Hard work leads to success.
C．One good turn deserves another.
D．Failure is the mother of success.組卷：4引用：2難度：0.6 -
3． Here's a depressing number for you：12.Just 12 percent of engineers in the United States are women.In computing it's a bit better，where women make up 26 percent of the workforce — but that number has actually fallen from 35 percent in 1990.
There's no single solution to such an annoying problem，but here's an unlikely one：robots getting more girls interested in STEM.Specifically，robot toys for kids — simple yet powerful toys for teaching youngsters how to engineer.
These days，many toys targeting at getting kids interested in science and engineering are gender specific. "Sometimes there's this idea that girls need special Legos，or it needs to be pink and purple for girls to get into it，and sometimes that makes me annoyed，" says Amanda Sullivan，who works inhuman development at Tufts University.
So Sullivan decided to try a specifically non-gendered robot toy called Kibo.Before playing with Kibo，boys were significantly more likely to say they'd enjoy being an engineer than the girls did.But after，boys had about the same opinion，while girls were now equally as likely to express an engineering interest as the boys. "I think that robots in general are novel to young children both boys and girls，" Sullivan says. "So aside from engaging girls specifically，I think robot toys like Kibo bring an air of excitement and something new to the classroom that gets all kids excited about learning."
There's a problem，though.While Sullivan proves that these kinds of robot toys can get girls interested in engineering，that doesn't mean it will sell. "If you look at sales data，it clearly shows that they're not being used by girls，" says Sharmi Albrechtsen，CEO and co—founder of SmartGurlz. "Even the ones that are considered no gender difference are towards boys.That's the reality of the situation." Gender sells — at least when it's the parents doing the buying.
（1）What can be learned about American women from paragraph 1？
A．They are less gifted than men.
B．They can be the best engineers.
C．They are better in computing than in engineering.
D．They take up a smaller part in computing than in the past.
（2）Which opinion might Amanda Sullivan agree with？
A．Robot toys are more suitable for boys.
B．Girls should play with pink and purple robot toys.
C．Both boys and girls can be attracted by robot toys.
D．People must consider gender when designing toys.
（3）Which of the following best describes Kibo？
A．Money-saving.
B．Gender-free.
C．Eye-catching.
D．Girl-focused.
（4）Why don't the robot toys sell well among girls？
A．They are boring and dull.
B．They are difficult for girls.
C．They ignore the needs of girls.
D．They are not welcomed by girls' parents.組卷：2引用：2難度：0.5

11．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
I hadn't spoken with Samantha in months.Perhaps it was because I was jealous （嫉妒的）.After all，she seems to have everything a girl could want.I used to admire her too until she proved that she could draw better，run faster，and score higher in every other subject.
My family was going to go camping at the lake on summer holiday like we always do.Only this time，my Mom announced some very unwelcome news. "Hanna!Guess what？I've invited the McCarthy's family on our camping trip. "How does that sound？" "Terrible，" I groaned.However，Mom wasn't changing her mind.
At the lake，my family organized ourselves in the cabin （小木屋） while the McCarthy's set up their tent.I spent the week ignoring Samantha and staying inside reading.I thought I could get away without talking to her，but it wasn't so.
On the fourth night of our trip，a thunderstorm struck.The McCarthy's decided to spend the night in our cabin because they didn't feel safe in the tent.I，of course，had to share a room with Samantha.
I woke up late at night.The storm had gotten worse.I desperately needed to use the toilet.Our cabin didn't have one，so I had to use an outhouse a short walk away.
I got out of bed，being careful not to wake anyone up.However，when I was reaching for my flashlight，I accidentally stepped on Samantha's arm.She woke up immediately.Knowing that I would go to the bathroom alone，she insisted to go with me.
Outside，it was raining hard.Lightning flashed across the sky and the thunder was so loud it seemed to shake the cabin.When we went back and rounded the comer to the cabin，we saw a big tree lay across the entrance of the cabin，blocking the door.There was no way to get back in.
注意：
（1）續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
（2）請(qǐng)按如格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
"Oh my gosh!What should we do？" she cried out.
______
Morning dawned on us and we walked out of the tent.
