23、ull 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 was at 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
24、Shinya Yamanaka.Like so many scientists, Gurdon shows us where the power of curiosity and perseverance(坚持) can lead.When he was 15 in 1948，Gurdon ranked last out of the 250 boys at his high school in biology and every other science subject. Gurdons high school science teacher even said that his drea
25、m of becoming a scientist was “quite ridiculous”.In spite of his teachers criticisms(批评), 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 everythi
26、ng about how cells actually work,” Gurdon said.In 1962, Gurdon took a cell from an adult frog and moved its genetic information into an egg cell. The egg cell then grew into a clone of the adult frog. This technique later helped to create the sheep Dolly in 1996，the first cloned mammal(哺乳动物) in the
27、world.In 2006，Gurdons work was developed by Yamanaka to show that a sample of a persons skin can be used to create stem cells. Using this technique, doctors can repair a patients heart after a heart attack.“Luck favors the prepared mind,” Gurdon told the Nobel Prize Organization. “Ninety percent of
28、the time things dont work, but when they do, you have to seize the chance.”51. Who won the 2012 Nobel Prize in Medicine?A. Sir John Gurdon B. Sir John Gurdon and Shinya YamanakaC.

Luck favors the prepared mind. BIf you bought some candy months ago but never ate it, how can you tell whether its still eatable
32、? The easiest way is to check the “expiration date (EXP)” printed on the cover. If that date has already passed, youre likely to throw the candy away. But is that really necessary?According to a new report from the NRDC, tons of food is wasted each year, largely because people dont fully understand
33、what expiration dates, or “use-by dates”, actually mean, so they think the food is not safe to eat.Food dating was introduced in 1975 because customers wanted more information about the things that they were eating. When they first showed up, use-by dates only showed freshness because producers want
34、ed their products to be tasted in their best conditions.However, most customers mistakenly believed that use-by dates showed how safe the food was. But the truth is that these dates arent related to the danger of food poisoning. Eggs, for example, can still be eaten three to five weeks after being b
35、ought, even though the use-by date is much earlier. When their use-by dates pass, cookies may lose their crunch (松脆 的口感), but they are not harmful.“Its an unclear subject, the difference between food quality and food safety,” said Jena Roberts from a US food testing company. “Even the workmates in t
36、he food factory are not sure about it. This is why the use-by dates must be printed on the covers of products. “We hope it can help customers understand the information so that they wont waste a lot of food.”But this wont be a mistake that is easy to correct, because people have believed it for so l
37、ong. Another problem is that the quality levels of different foods change differently. Some are still eatable long after their use-by date while others are not.As a result, food factory officials are now thinking of changing the use-by date to a date which can show when food is most likely to be thr
38、own away.56. Every year, why is tons of food thrown away?A. Because it is no longer fresh. B. Because it is no longer delicious.C. Because the use-by dates are wrongly printed. D. Because people think its not safe to eat.57. Which of the following pictures can show the meaning of “expiration date (E
39、XP)”? 58. What did the use-by dates show at first according to the passage?A. Food freshness. B. Food quality. C. Food safety. D. Food producer.59. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A. Most customers care more about freshness than food safety.B. Most customers fully understand what expiration dates
40、 mean.C. Even after their expiration dates pass, some foods are still safe to eat.D. “Expiration dates” were first used to show when food was likely to go bad.60. What is probably the best title for this passage?A. Customers and food B. Food quality and freshness C. Food dating D. Expiration dates a
