12． A mother of nine who started medical school when her youngest child was 4 years old graduated with her degree and plans to be a neurosurgeon （神經(jīng)外科醫(yī)生）.
Sarah Merrill，now 41，said her journey to medical school began at age 17.She then met her husband and got married.Merrill first thought about going to school part-time to get a degree，but later she decided to follow her dream of attending medical school.Certainly，it was a challenge.Speaking of her successfully returning to university，Merrill thought it was credited to her family largely. "When I was accepted at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine，we moved from Pennsylvania to Arizona，" said Merrill，who is moving to Indiana with her family to begin her residency （實習(xí)期） in neurosurgery. "In fact，they volunteered these movements.I know it was tough for all of us."
Merrill and her children often have "homework parties" where they study for their own courses.Merrill's choice has given a stimulus to her children.Merrill felt touched knowing her 11-year-old daughter wants to become a surgeon and overhearing her son tell his friends his mom's going to be a cool brain surgeon，though he doesn't understand that really.
Merrill's next step into a neurosurgery residency will take her into a male-dominated field where only 5% of board certified neurosurgeons are women.Dr.Michele Halyard at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine said Merrill was known as a focused student.Halyard said， "If you can deal with nine children and keep your reason，the residency should be a piece of cake because no amount of stress will make you fail."
Merrill had considered choosing a more family-friendly specialty，but，again，chose to dream big and follow her original pursujye.ai.It's the same advice she would give to all. "Set the goal that is what you're really enthusiastic about，and it helps to think small.If you know what your priorities are，focus on the next step.Then you'll get where you want to go."
（1）Why does Merrill speak of their movements？
A．To show the support of her family.
B．To stress her determination to be a doctor.
C．To reflect difficulties in attending college.
D．To describe the process of pursuing her dream.
（2）What does the underlined word "stimulus" mean in paragraph 3？
A．Entertainment.
B．Inspiration.
C．Commitment.
D．Confusion.
（3）What does Halyard mean in paragraph 4？
A．Merrill will have more stress to handle.
B．Staying focused and sensible is key to success.
C．Being Mom makes Merrill a better doctor.
D．She is confident of Merrill's being a neurosurgeon.
（4）What does Merrill suggest at last？
A．Starting with small things.
B．Getting your priorities right.
C．Being true to your passion.
D．Having the courage to dream big.組卷：3引用：7難度：0.5 -
13． Giving silkworm silk a metallic bath may make the strands （絲線） both strong and solid，scientists reported on October 6 in Matter.The work is the latest in a decades-long pursuit of creating fibers as strong，lightweight and biodegradable as spider silk.If scientists can mass-produce such material，the potential uses will range from the biomedical to the athletic.Sewing （縫） up wounds，even sporting equipment could get a significant improvement.
"Hunting for enough silky material to make these super strong products has been a big barrier.Silk from silkworms is simple to harvest，but not all that strong.And spider silk，the gold-standard for hand-spun strength and toughness，is not exactly easy to collect.Unlike silkworms，spiders cannot be farmed due to their nature，" wrote study coauthor Zhi Lin，a structural biologist at Tianjin University.
"Scientists around the world have tried to spin （編織） strong strands in the lab using silkworm cocoons.The first step is to take off the silk's sticky outer coating.Scientists can do this by boiling the fibers in a chemical bath，but that can be like taking a knife to silk proteins.If the proteins get too damaged，it's hard for scientists to respin them into high-quality strands，" said Chris Holland，a materials scientist at the University of Sheffield.
Lin's team tried gentler approaches，one of which used lower temperatures and a papaya enzyme （木瓜酵素），to help dissolve （溶解） the silk's coating.That seemed to work.They don't have little pieces of silk protein.That's huge because the bigger the proteins that remain，the stronger the fibers are going to be.After some processing steps，the researchers bathed the pressed silk in a solution containing zinc and iron ions （鋅鐵離子）.That was why some of the strands were so strong — Lin's team detected zinc ions in the finished fibers.
But Holland wasn't so sure. "The team's real innovation may be that they've managed to untwist silk in a less damaging way.The silk protein remains in a good state，" he said， "In my mind，that's a major step forward."
（1）Why is creating super strong silk worth the long-time pursuit？
A．It can be mass-produced.
B．It promotes athletic training.
C．It might have wide applications.
D．It is potentially environmentally friendly.
（2）What makes it hard to collect desirable natural silk according to Lin？
A．The poor harvest of silkworm silk.
B．The low quality of spider silk.
C．The absence of silkworm data.
D．The insufficient supply of spider silk.
（3）How did Lin's team make the silk fiber strong？
A．By enhancing its protein.
B．By bathing it in metallic liquid.
C．By removing its coating.
D．By squeezing it firmly in a tube.
（4）In what aspect did Lin's team make a breakthrough according to Holland？
A．Processing silk in a safer method.
B．Mass-producing silk.
C．Creating silk of superior quality.
D．Analyzing silk scientifically.組卷：4引用：4難度：0.5 -
14． Imagine being able to go to your local park and pick some tomatoes，potatoes or even bananas to take home for dinner.Sounds too good to be true，right？For residents of Andernach，a German city，it's not just a Utopian dream — it's their reality.In 2010，Andernach began its "edible city" project，planting 101 varieties of tomatoes in public green spaces around the city centre.Its 30，000 residents are free to help themselves to whatever grows，as are any other visitors.Every year a new type of plant is jye.aitroduced.In 2011，100 types of beans were planted，while 2012 saw the introduction of 20 onion varieties.The town's motto （座右銘） is， "Picking is encouraged — help yourself!"
It's a community effort，as local citizens are encouraged to help plant and maintain the gardens.This offers an opportunity to socialize as well as to learn about planting，cultivating and harvesting food. "I often drop by to pick some herbs that I'm missing at home.Everything is easily accessible.There aren't any fences.You just take what you need.The only thing is you have to be quick once the fruits are ripe or they'll all be gone!" said a local historian.
Andernach may be the first，but it isn't the only edible cjye.aiy.It's part of the Edible Cities Network，an EU-funded project connecting green urban food initiatives （倡議） around the world.Other edible cities include Carthage in Tunisia，Havana in Cuba and ?empeter-Vrtojba in Slovenia.In February 2022，the first Edible Cities Network Conference took place.Dr.Ina S?umel，Principal Investigator of the Edible Cities Network，called it， "a unique opportunity to invite researchers and practitioners （從業(yè)人員） of Edible City Solutions to the same table and unite theory with practice".
Ultimately，the Edible Cities Network aims to create "greener，more edible and，above all，more livable cities".It is a response to the pressures of climate change，and a cause for hope.
（1）What is paragraph 1 mainly about？
A．The process of Andernach's growth.
B．The green food project in Andernach.
C．Methods of planting vegetables in Europe.
D．The popularity of Andernach's city design.
（2）What is the attitude of the local historian mentioned in paragraph 2 towards the project？
A．Doubtful.
B．Indifferent.
C．Positive.
D．Negative.
（3）What can be inferred from paragraph 3？
A．Green urban food has drawn more attention.
B．German rural areas will follow the trend too.
C．Asia will join the Edible Cities Network soon.
D．Edible cities hold meetings on a regular base.
（4）Which of the following could be the best title for the text？
A．Start a Green Food Campaign Now
B．Gain Easy Access to German Food
C．Quick Response to Climate Change
D．An Incredible "Edible City" Initiative組卷：6引用：3難度：0.5
