Nepalese mountaineer Purja became one of them after he reached the 8 028-meter peak
( 山 峰 )
of
China’s
Mt.
Shishapangma
on
October
29,
2019.
Purja
made
the extraordinary achievement in just six months and six days, much faster than late South Korean climber Kim Chang-ho’s 2013 record of seven years, ten months, and six days. “I am incredibly excited and proud to have reached this final peak and achieved my goal of climbing the world’s 14 tallest mountains in record time,” Purja said. “It was extremely hard during the six months, and I hope to have proven that anything is possible
with some determination, self-belief, and positivity.” Purja’s “Project Possible” started
becoming
a reality on April 23, 2019, when he
successfully peaked Nepal’s 8 091 meters tall Mt. Annapurna. The climber then rapidly completed the next five mountains, including Mt. Everest, within only four weeks! Five
more peaks were conquered in July and the last three during September and October. The adventurer, who was joined by teams of Nepalese climbers on each of his adventures, encountered many memorable and critical moments. On April 23, 2019, while
going down Mt. Annapurna, Purja and his team heard about a Malaysian climber who had been separated from his group with no food, water, or oxygen for over 40 hours. They managed to find him and got him airlifted to a hospital. On May 15, 2019, Purja’s team similarly helped three trapped ( 受 困 的 ) climbers on Mt. Kanchenjunga by giving them oxygen. Purja said his primary purpose for undertaking this enormous task was to show the
world that anyone can attain greatness if they put their minds to it. “By achieving this goal, I knew I could inspire people from all generations across the world,” he said.
24. Which was the last of the world’s 14 tallest mountains Purja peaked? A. Mt. Everest. B. Mt. Annapurna. C. Mt. Kanchenjunga. D. Mt. Shishapangma. 25. Which of the following best describes Purja?

What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 4? A. The number of climbers should be limited to ensure safety. B. Purja and his team are willing to assist climbers in trouble.

C. It is impossible to rescue trapped climbers on high mountains. D. Necessary preparations must be made before climbing mountains. 27. What might be the best title of the text? A.

Nepalese Mountaineer Conquers the World’s 14 Highest Peaks in Six Months
C Japanese researchers are genetically changing mosquitoes so that they become carriers of a vaccine ( 疫 苗 ) that could vaccinate millions for free. The researchers have already genetically changed a mosquito species so that its saliva (唾液) contains a protein that acts as a vaccine against leishmaniasis (利什曼病), a deadly disease that leads to terrible skin problems. The team confirmed that mice bitten by the genetically engineered mosquito developed an antibody to the disease, meaning they had built up immunity (免疫力). “You would be vaccinated without even noticing. You wouldn’t need any drug and you wouldn’t need to show up at a fixed place for mass vaccinations,” said Shigeto Yoshida, the
associate professor who has led the research. “Repeated bites would only strengthen the
immunity.” “Similarly the mosquitoes could be used to help treat malaria (疟疾), perhaps a decade from now,” said the malaria expert. Nearly one million people die each year from malaria—most of them are
children—mainly in Africa and Asia, according to the World Health Organization. Now a
problem is that no effective vaccine exists. “There is a treatment that works, but it is beyond the reach of people who need to worry about food for tomorrow,” Yoshida said. However, Yoshida expects that the genetically-engineered mosquito will finally help wipe out the deadly disease in the developing world. “Technically speaking, I believe it’s a
matter of 10 years or so, but it’s not clear whether society would accept it,” he said. Another problem is that the genetically-engineered mosquito may still pick up and spread the infected blood of a person who has already caught malaria. Yoshida’s team is hoping it can solve this problem by developing a mosquito species that kills the malaria
virus inside its own body.
28. How have scientists turned mosquitoes into carriers of a vaccine? A. By changing their genes. B. By killing the virus in their bodies. C. By letting them bite mice. D. By injecting vaccines into their bodies. 29. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of using mosquitoes as vaccine carriers? A. It’s free of charge. B. It’s convenient. C. It’s more effective. D. It’s unnoticeable. 30. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. People welcome the idea of using mosquitoes to treat malaria. B. Mosquitoes carrying vaccines may still spread malaria. C. It is not long before people will use mosquitoes to get rid of malaria. D. A mosquito can kill the malaria virus inside its own ...
