Life is full of surprises and you never know how things will turn out．

    Sir John Gurdon is a good example of this． As a boy， he was told he was hopeless at science and finished bottom of his class． Now，aged 79，the very same Gurdon shared the 2012 Nobel Prize in Medicine with Japanese stem cell（干细胞） researcher Shinya Yamanaka．

    Like so many scientists，Gurdon shows us where the power of curiosity and perseverance（坚持不懈）can lead．

    At the age of 15 in 1948， Gurdon ranked last out of the 250 boys at his high school in biology and every other science subject． Gurdon's high school science teacher even said that his dream of becoming a scientist was "quite ridiculous"．

    In spite of his teacher's criticisms， Gurdon followed his curiosity and kept working hard． He went to the lab early and left later than anyone else． He experienced thousands of failures．

    "My own belief is that we will， in the end ， understand everything about how cells actually work．" Gurdon said．

    In 1962，Gurdon took a cell from an adult frog and moved its genetic（基因的）information into an egg cell． The egg cell then grew into a clone（克隆）of the adult frog．This technique later helped to create Dolly the sheep in 1996， the first cloned mammal（哺乳动物） in the world．

    In 2006， Gurdon's work was developed by Yamanaka to show that a sample （样本） of a person's skin can be used to create stem cells． Using the technique， doctors can repair a patient's heart after a heart attack．

    "Luck favors the prepared mind，" Gurdon told the Nobel Prize Organization． "Ninety percent of the time things don't work， but when they do， you have to seize（抓住） the chance．"

What do you see when you look at abstract（抽象） art？Does it make sense to you？Does it look like anything？Is it supposed to？

    Abstract art became popular in the early 20^th century．Artists did not want to paint，draw，or sculpt things exactly（确切地） like they looked．They didn't want their art to be realistic．They were more interested in basic shapes and colours．

    Picasso is probably the most famous of these artists．He painted and drew in many，many styles．Sometimes he used a lot of blue colours（his"blue period"）．Later，he used more red and pink colours （his"rose period"）．Many of his other paintings are called"cubist（立体画派）"because they are made of painted squares．

    After a long time，Picasso's paintings became more and more abstract．He painted people and things using strange shapes．His work was so original； many of his fellow artists didn't understand it．

    Kandinsky，another famous artist，used lines，shapes，and patterns to paint his subjects．His paintings also used strong colours to express feelings．

    Other artists like the surrealists（超现实主义者），were interested in subconscious（潜意识）．Painters like Breton and Magritte used many symbol in their work．The meaning or subject of their work wasn't always clear．Dali，another surrealist artist，painted pictures that look like dreams．

    There are still many abstract artists around the world．That's the way many artists prefer．They want each person to look at art and find their own meaning in it．

It is reported that some developed countries have shipped broken parts of computers to China．Last month Hong Kong officers found 131，000kilograms of broken computers，TVs and phones sent from Japan．

Things like these are called electronic waste，or e﹣waste．Dealing with them is not an easy job．Every time an old computer breaks down，it needs to be dealt with safely．What is worse，at present，broken computer parts are usually 　 buried 　．It may be hundreds of years before they are really gone in the earth．

Many places in China are polluted by e﹣waste．Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them．This town is named as"the e﹣waste capital of the world"．It has to deal with 1.5million kilograms of e﹣waste each year，from which it makes 75million yuan．But it comes at a cost．Many of the poisons in e﹣waste find their way into the environment．An environmental group has found the air，the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted．

Luckily，the Chinese government wants to change the situation．This year，China passed a new environmental protection law．Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers．Hopefully，the problem with e﹣waste will be solved in the near future．

71．The e﹣waste found in Hong Kong last month was from 　　．

A．France B．Japan C．Germany D．Australia

The government in China plans to end its one﹣child policy （政策） and let families have two children instead．The plan was meant to balance （平衡） population development and stop a falling birth rate （出生率）．

China started the one﹣child policy in the 1980s．But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children．For example，some families in the countryside could have two children，if the first﹣born child is a girl．In 2013，the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child．

Jiang Quanbao，a population expert，explained how Chinese families react to the newest policy．"Lots of young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child，"he said．

At the end of 2014，China had a population of 1.37billion people．But the labor market population will drop in 35years．That is to say，the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050．With the"two children"policy，an increase in births can solve this problem．

66．Why does the government plan to end the one﹣child policy？ 　　

A．Because we need a larger population．

B．Because millions of people have jobs．

C．Because most families want to have a second child．

D．Because a falling birth rate must be stopped．

67．How do most young people in the cities react to the"two children"policy？ 　　

A．They support the policy．B．They don't think it is good．

C．They're very interested．D．They're not interested．

68．When will our country be seriously short of labor if the one﹣child policy continues？ 　　

A．In 2025．B．In 2035．C．In 2050．D．In 2070．

69．What's the correct time order of the following events？ 　　

①．The"two children"policy was announced．

②．China had a population of 1.37billion people．

③．Some families in the countryside could have two children．

④．Families could have two children if one parent was an only child．

A．③④②①B．②①④③C．④③②①D．③①④②

70．What may happen after we have the"two children"policy？ 　　

A．There will be more old people．

B．The labor market population will drop．

C．Almost every family will have a second child．

D．The population development will be balanced．
