Probably one of the most popular topics in science-fiction of all times has been the idea of time traveling． We know and love such films as H． G． Wells' The Time Machine， H． P． Lovecraft s The Shadow Out of Time as well as a great number of films and TV shows： Back to the Future， The Butterfly Effect． These， as well as many others， are dedicated mostly to one question： how can an individual affect or even change their entire life in the present by making even slight corrections， in their own past？
When I was a child， I often dreamed about a special pocket device that would allow me to "save certain moments of my life． In that case， if I failed to do something， I could always "load' my life． I imagined all the things I could do if I had such power： jumping from very tall buildings without a parachute （ and " loading" at the last second） and taking up other risky occupations．
Sometimes， I would like to jump into a time machine， go back to a couple of years ago， and make many corrections． I would warn myself about the consequences of my most reckless （不顾后果的）decisions． I would talk to that long-haired teen holding his first cigarette and tell him， "Don't do that - years will pass until you finally manage to quit it． " There are so many warnings I would give to myself that sometimes I think： was it really I who did this and that？
Having a time machine is an amazingly attractive idea． It seems that having one would make life so much easier! Perhaps， it is true． But what I think more often now is that living without it teaches us responsibility． I try to live each day at the maximum in order to regret nothing． This is actually what our parents always try to do when we are children． But you know what？ I am glad that no time machine has been invented．
1. What's the writer's main purpose of writing Paragraph 1？ ______
A. To introduce some famous movies．
B. To raise a question about time travel．
C. To show those movies are very popular．
D. To show the scenes in movies might become true．
2. What does the writer try to convey in this article？ ______
A. Unpractical dreams can never be realized．
B. What happened in the past can't be changed．
C. The idea of the time machine is really a creative invention．
D. Being responsible for the present is better than regretting．
3. What's the writer's attitude toward the invention of the time machine？ ______
A. Objective． B. Supportive． C. Negative． D. Indifferent．
C

A global group of scientists have reduced the time it takes to find and introduce disease resistance genes from wild plants into domestic （国内的）crops such as rice， wheat and potato， a research revealed on Tuesday．
Scientists from the John Innes Center in Britain， along with colleagues from Australia and the United States， have created a database known as AgRenSeq， where researchers can easily search for resistance genes already discovered in wild relatives of modem crops．
The study was co-authored by a global expert Professor HarbansBariana from the University of
Sydney， who said that this technology will support the discovery and characterization of new sources of disease resistance in plants． Once researchers have identified resistance genes using AgRenSeq， they can clone them and introduce them to domestic crops to protect against diseases and pests．
"We have found a way to scan the genome（基因组）of a wild relative of a crop plant and pick out the resistance genes we need and we can do it in record time，" Dr． Brande Wulff， a project leader from the John Innes Centre， said．
"This used to be a process that took 10 or 15 years and was like searching for a needle in a haystack（干草堆），" Wulff said． "We have perfected the method so that we can clone these genes in a matter of months and for just thousands of dollars instead of millions．"
The team are highly optimistic about their work， predicting it to be utilized in protecting many crops with wild relatives including soybeans， pea， cotton potato， wheat， rice， banana and cocoa． "Using speed cloning and speed breeding we could deliver resistance genes into the best varieties within a couple of years， like a phoenix（凤凰）rising from the ashes，" Wulff added．
1. How have the researchers developed the resistance genes？ ______
A. By reducing the research time．
B. By introducing them to wild plants．
C. By cloning them from domestic crops．
D. By getting resistance genes from wild plants．
2. What will be the use of the study in the future？ ______
A. It will protect crops from being damaged by pests．
B. It will create a database for researchers to search．
C. It will protect domestic crops for 10 to 15 years．
D. It will contribute to reducing the wild plants．
3. Which of the following best explains "utilized" underlined in Paragraph 6？ ______
A. Produced． B. Made． C. Used． D. Studied．
4. What can we infer From what Brande Wulff said？ ______
A. The resistance genes cost millions of dollars．
B. Thy resistance genes were found in a haystack．
C. It look the researchers ten years to find the resistance genes．
D. Disease-resistance genes will be put into practice soon．
二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）
Vitamin D is necessary for bone-building， immune （免疫）function， blood sugar control ， positive mood and more． (1) The lower your vitamin D level is， the higher your risk of death from any cause will be． However， it's not a great idea to just take a supplement （补品）off the drugstore shelf and start taking it．
Since many of us have an inadequate amount vitamin D， also known as the sunshine vitamin" ， doctors will often give us high levels of D supplements， with closes ranging from 2， 000 to 10，000 I（International Units） per day， up to 50，000 IU per week and sometimes even more． (2) Very big doses （剂量）of vitamin D can cause a build-up of calcium （钙） in the blood， which leads to poor appetite， weakness， weight loss or other diseases． Here's the bigger issue； (3) A build-up of stored vitamin D can cause avoidable problems， leading to problems such as kidney （肾）stones．
(4) The National Institutes of Health set the Recommended Dietary Allowance for vitamin D at 600
IU daily for babies， children， and adults up to 70 years old． Adults aged 71 and older need 800 IU， since the ability to absorb vitamin D drops with age． Because the fat cells take vitamin D up， making it less available for use by the body， (5)
Though you'll get a bit of vitamin D from foods - including fatty fish， beef liver， cheese， milk and so on - the amounts are so small that there's little need to worry that they'll put you ， over the daily dose．
A． It can help prevent many diseases．
B． We can actually reduce the risk of death．
C． people who are fat may also need more vitamin D．
D． any extra intake of vitamin D can get stored in the body．
