For the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school.    小題1:    Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.
The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65-team US men’s college basketball tournament.    小題2: Teams compete against each other in a single-elimination (單局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.
Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends.   小題3:  Colleagues against bosses.
Big-name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little-known universities.
This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Two years ago, the little-known George Mason University was one of the final four teams.   小題4: 
College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves.   小題5:  About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling (賭) on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will bring in $ 500 million in advertising income this year, topping the post – season income of every US professional league, including that of the NBA.
A. Husbands against wives.
B. The players will go all out for the games.
C. But that doesn’t mean money isn’t involved.
D. College students will ignore piles of homework.
E. People are willing to spend more money on watching it.
F. It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April.
G. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.  

小題1:D
小題2:F
小題3:A
小題4:G
小題5:C

試題分析：文章主要講的是美國一年一度的大學(xué)生籃球聯(lián)賽。這項(xiàng)賽事的影響力非常大，人們常拿比賽來進(jìn)行賭博，雖然運(yùn)動(dòng)員沒有酬勞，但比賽帶來的廣告收益可達(dá)50億之多。
小題1:根據(jù)“It will keep kids home from school... Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.”可知，這種“疾病”的影響很廣，孩子不愿上學(xué)，大學(xué)生無視他們的作業(yè)，員工無心工作，故選D。
小題2:根據(jù)“The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65-team US men’s college basketball tournament.”可知，這種“疾病”實(shí)際上是全美大學(xué)生籃球賽，空白處介紹的是全美大學(xué)生籃球賽的時(shí)間，故選F。
小題3:根據(jù)“Friends compete against friends. Colleagues against bosses.”可知，人們互相猜測(cè)誰是贏家，朋友之間互相打賭，夫妻之間、同事和老板之間互相打賭，故選A。
小題4:根據(jù)“the little-known George Mason University”可知，George Mason University在比賽前一點(diǎn)也不出名，故選G。
小題5:根據(jù)“College basketball players are not paid, ...About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling (賭) on the event... the event will bring in $ 500 million in advertising income this year,”可知，籃球運(yùn)動(dòng)員沒有報(bào)酬，但這并非意味著比賽與錢無關(guān)。花在賭博上的就有40億，廣告收入也達(dá)到了50億。故選C。

“HEARTLESS”— a word you wouldn’t want to use to describe a person. But having his heart removed was what saved Craig Lewis’ life—and what made him the first living “heartless” man.
The 55-year-old，dying of heart disease，was told he only had 12 hours to live， when Billy Cohn and Bud Frazier, doctors from the Texas Heart Institute, decided to try something new. They removed Lewis heart and replaced it with an artificial (人造的) one. Less than a week after the operation, Lewis was able to sit and speak.
Lewis kept on living like a normal person, with only one difference—he didn’t have a heartbeat. The human heart usually pumps blood through our bodies by beating regularly. By contrast, this artificial heart pushes the blood forward with two moving blades(槳葉). If you were to touch Lewis or listen to his chest, you would not feel a heartbeat. If you hooked him up to an EKG(心電圖) machine, the line would be flat.
Scientists have been trying to create a working artificial heart for years. Until now, all artificial hearts either broke down or caused blocks and infections.
But after five years of hard work, Dr Cohn and Dr Frazier developed this artificial heart. It is smaller and quieter than other artificial hearts and can last much longer. They tested it on 38 calves (牛犢) and all of them turned out energetic and healthy. Lewis is the first human proof that the machine is a success.
The doctors will have to work more on the device and decide on a final design before it can be widely used. The US Food and Drug Administration will also need to say that the machine is safe. But this artificial heart looks likely to bring a ray of hope to thousands of patients.

請(qǐng)認(rèn)真閱讀下列短文，并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。注意：每空格1個(gè)單詞。
Chang'e 3 is a lunar(月球的) exploration mission operated by the China National Space Administration (CNSA), incorporating a robotic lander and China's first lunar rover.
The spacecraft was named after Chang'e, the goddess of the Moon, and is a follow-up to the Chang'e 1 and Chang'e 2 lunar orbiters. The rover was named Yutu following an online poll, after the mythological rabbit that lives on the Moon as a pet of the Moon goddess.
Chang'e 3 achieved lunar orbit on 6 December 2013 and landed on 14 December 2013, becoming the first probe to soft-land on the Moon since Luna 24 in 1976.
In January 2004, the People's Republic of China's lunar orbiter project was formally established. The first Chinese lunar orbiter, Chang'e 1, was launched from Xichang Satellite Launch Center on 24 October 2007 and entered lunar orbit on 5 November. The spacecraft operated until 1 March 2009, when it was intentionally impacted into the surface of the Moon. Data gathered by Chang'e 1 were used to create an accurate 3-D map of the entire lunar surface, assisting site selection for the Chang'e 3 lander.
Chang'e 1's successor, Chang'e 2, was approved on October 2008 and was launched on 1 October 2010 to conduct research from a 100-km-high lunar orbit, in preparation for Chang'e 3's 2013 soft landing. Chang'e 2, though similar in design to Chang'e 1, was equipped with improved instruments and provided higher-resolution imagery of the lunar surface to assist in the planning of the Chang'e 3 mission. 
In March 2012, China began manufacturing the body and payload of the Chang'e 3 lander, which will attempt to perform lunar surface and space studies independently of the mission's mobile rover.
Like its orbiting predecessors, the Chang'e 3 mission is planned as a precursor（先驅(qū)）to further robotic lunar exploration missions, including Chang'e 5, a sample return mission planned for 2017. Following these automated missions, a manned landing may be conducted around 2025.
Chang'e 3 will attempt to perform the first direct measurement of the structure and depth of the lunar soil down to a depth of 30 m (98 ft), and investigate the lunar crust(殼) structure down to several hundred meters deep.
The development of the six-wheeled rover began in 2002 and was completed in May 2010. It has a total mass of approximately 120 kg, with a payload capacity of approximately 20 kg. It can perform simple analysis of soil samples and may transmit video in real time. It can navigate inclines(斜坡) and has automatic sensors to prevent it from colliding(碰撞) with other objects.
The rover was successfully deployed from the lander, and it made contact with the lunar surface on 14 December. After taking pictures of each other the lander and rover will start their respective science missions. The rover is designed to explore an area of 3 square kilometres during its 3-month mission, with a maximum travelling distance of 10 km.

Long before, there was a large mountainside, where rested an eagle's nest with four large eagle eggs. One day   小題1:   earthquake rocked the mountain, causing one of the eggs to roll down the mountain to a chicken farm  小題2:   (locate) in the valley below. The chickens were kind enough to care for the eagle's egg, and an old hen volunteered to nurture (哺育) and raise the large egg.
One day, the egg hatched and a beautiful eagle was born. Sadly, 小題3: , the eagle was raised to be a chicken. Soon, the eagle believed he was nothing more   小題4: a chicken. The eagle loved his present family, but his spirit cried out   小題5:  more. While playing on the farm one day, the eagle happened to notice a group of mighty eagles soaring in the skies. "Oh," the eagle cried, "I wish I could soar like those birds."
The chickens roared with 小題6: (laugh), “You cannot soar with those birds. You are a chicken and chickens do not soar."
The eagle continued staring at his real family up above,  小題7: (dream) that he could be with them. Each time the eagle would let his dreams  小題8: (know), he was told it couldn't be done. That is  小題9:  the eagle learned to believe. The eagle, after time, stopped dreaming and continued to live like a chicken. Finally, after a long life as a chicken, the eagle passed away.
You become what you believe you are. So, if you ever dream of becoming an eagle, follow  小題10:   dreams... not the words of a chicken.
