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. 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.

24. What made Andraka decide to develop a test for pancreatic cancer?

A. His friend’s encouragement. B. An upsetting experience. C. His extensive reading. D. An important test.

25. What difficulty did Andraka meet at the beginning of his research?

A. Lack of positive replies from experts. B. Heavy pressure from his schoolwork.

C. Little access to research equipment. D. Great need for money to develop a test.

26.Which of the following leads to Andraka’s award winning?

A. The competition with other contestants. B.His determination and persistence to improve the world.

C. The support from his family. D.His passion for discovery.

27.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.

Fou Ts’ong, a Chinese-born pianist known for his sensitive interpretations of Chopin, Debussy and Mozart,

died on Monday at a hospital in London, where he had as lived for many years. He was 86.

A lover of classical music from a young age, Mr.Fou began taking piano lessons when he was 7. Mr. Fou made his

first stage appearance in 1952.The concert caught the attention of officials in Beijing, who selected him to compete and

tour in Eastern Europe. Mr.Fou soon moved to Poland, where he studied at the Warsaw Conservatory on a scholarship

to prepare for the fifth International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw in 1955. He practiced so diligently that he

hurt his fingers and was nearly cut from the first round of the competition.

Mr. Fou was one of the first Chinese pianists to achieve global prominence when he took third place in the

International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw in 1955. He also won a special prize for his performance of

Chopin’s mazurkas. Almost overnight, he became a national hero. To China, Mr. Fou’s recognition in a well-known

international competition was proof that the country could stand on its own artistically in the West. Chinese reporters

flocked to interview Mr. Fou, while many others sought out his father, Fu Lei, for advice on educating children.

In 1981, a volume of letters written by his father, primarily to Mr. Fou, was published in China. Full of advice,

encouragement, life teachings and strict paternal love, the book Fu Lei’s Family Letters became a best-seller in China.

Besides influencing a generation of Chinese, Mr. Fu’s words resonated long after his death among people for whom

they were intended.

“My father had a saying that 'First you must be a person, then an artist, and then a musician, and only then can you

be a pianist’,” Mr. Fou once recalled in an interview. “Even now, I believe in this order-that it should be this way and

that I am this way.”

28.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A. Fou Ts'ong's achievements in music. B. The stage performances Fou Ts'ong gave.

C. Fou Ts’ong's experiences of learning music. D. The efforts Fou Ts'ong made for competitions.

29.Why does Fou Ts’ong’s global recognition mean a lot to China?
