Saffron is known as the most expensive spice in the world. Prices vary depending on the quality as well as
species. High-quality saffron can sell for as much as $ 6,000 per pound. The value of saffron results from its rarity and
the intense labor 31 to harvest it. It takes 80,000 flowers to produce a pound of saffron. The harvest time is in
autumn, and the process has to be carried out by hand.
The history of saffron traces back to 4,000 years ago in Iran, 32 the spice was commonly used in the
cuisines for the royal family. In the tenth century the cultivation of saffron was introduced to Spain by the Arabs. It is
said that saffron was brought to Great Britain during the middle age by a pilgrim who hid a bulb of saffron in his stick
and travelled from Middle East to Walden, a town 18 miles south of Cambridge. 33 the town’s favorable soil and
climate, saffron was widely grown there and gave prosperity to the town. Today most saffron comes from Iran, India,
Turkey, Spain, Morocco, and Greece, among which Iran is responsible for 90% of the production worldwide.
From ancient times saffron has been used in cooking and medicine. It is regarded as a(n) 34 ingredient for
many regional specialties, including Spanish paella, Italian risotto, Saudi-Arabian coffee and tea, Indian curry, and
Swedish saffron bread. Furthermore, this spice is used to treat diabetes, asthma, cough, kidney disorders, and skin
diseases. It is also believed to be able to 35 the level of blood cholesterol and to prevent cancer.

Lawrence R. Herkimer (October 14, 1925 – July 1, 2015) was an American innovator in the field
of cheerleading. He created the widely used Herkie cheerleading jump, which was named after him, and received a
patent for the pom-pom, which has become a staple of cheerleading. Herkimer was known as the grandfather of
modern cheerleading and often called Mr. Cheerleader.
Herkimer had been a scholarship student and head cheerleader at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. As a
cheerleader, he developed what became known as the Herkie by accident while intending to perform a split jump. The
move features one arm extended straight up in the air and the other on one’s hip, with one leg extended straight out, and
the other bent back. At Southern Methodist, he formed a national organization for cheerleaders and created a
cheerleading-oriented magazine called Megaphone.
After graduating from Southern Methodist in 1948, Herkimer started his first cheerleading camp at Sam Houston
State Teachers College with 52 girls and one boy with $600 borrowed from a friend of his father-in-law’s. By the
following year, enrollment had grown to 350 participants. Shortly thereafter, he was making more money from his
summer programs than he was teaching the remainder of the year at Southern Methodist, so he gave up teaching and
took up the cheerleading business full time. His camps had as many as 1,500 instructors teaching tens of thousands of
students nationwide each summer, and his Cheerleader Supply Company was successfully retailing skirts and sweaters
for cheerleading squads.

As part of an effort to provide a visually appealing device for cheerleaders, given the advent of color television,
Herkimer created the pom-pon with a hidden handle and was granted patent $3,560,313 by the United States Patent and
Trademark Office in 1971. He chose the name “Pom pon” after hearing that the word “pompom” had vulgar meanings
in other languages.
While cheerleading at scholastic sports events dates back to the 19th century, Herkimer boasted that he took it
“from the raccoon coat and pennant to greater heights,” especially after World War II, when more women began
enrolling in the nation’s colleges. “I feel we have a recession-proof business,” he said in 1990. “If times get bad, a
father would sell the boat before he would tell his daughter she can’t have pompons and her cheerleading sweater.” By
the time he sold his various cheerleading enterprises in 1986 for an estimated $20 million, he was considered the
undisputed pacesetter of the cheerleading business.
36 What is this passage mainly about?
Herkimer’s success as a college teach er.
Herkimer’s contributions to cheerleading.
How Herkimer made cheerleading into an annual event.
How Herkimer built a million-dollar cheerleading organization.
37 How many people attended Herkimer’s cheerleading camp in 1948?
52 53 350 1500
38 According to the passage, which of the following was NOT created by Lawrence R. Herkimer?
Megaphone Pom-pom The Herkie jump The cheerleader skirt
39 What did Herkimer try to describe by using the phrase “from the raccoon coat to pennant to greater heights”?
His pompom patent. His cheerleading jumps.
His cheerleading profits. His contribution to cheerleading.
40 According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
Before World War II, women were not allowed to join cheerleading squads.
Herkimer was teaching at a university when he started his cheerleading camp.
When performing the Herkie jump, one has to put his two arms up in the air.
Herkimer used “pom-pon” instead of “pom-pom” due to some TV producers.

One azure morning in December, Laura Cozzolino arrived at her corner cafe in central Naples and ordered her
usual: a dense espresso, which arrived steaming hot on the dark marble counter. She lingered over the aroma, and then
knocked it back in two quick sips. But instead of paying for one coffee, she paid for two, leaving the receipt for the
other — a caffè sospeso, or suspended coffee — with the bartender for a stranger to enjoy.
The suspended coffee is a Neapolitan tradition that boomed during World War II and has found a revival in
recent years during hard economic times. From Naples, by word of mouth and via the Internet, the gesture has spread
throughout Italy and around the world, to coffee bars as far-flung as Sweden and Brazil. In some places in Italy, the
generosity now extends to the suspended pizza or sandwich, or even books.
Naples is a city well known for its grit, beauty, chaos and crime. Despite those things, or perhaps because of
them, its people are also famous for their solidarity in the face of hardship. With its rich diversity of neighborhoods,
coffee bars in Naples hold a special place as gathering points for all: senators, families with grandchildren, street
artists, businessmen and beggars.
No one here seems to know precisely when or how the suspended coffee began. But that it started here speaks to
the small kindnesses that Italians are known for — and also of the special place that coffee occupies in the culture. In a
time of hardship, Italians can lack many things, but their coffee is n o t one of them. So it may be the most common item
left at many cafes, as a gift, for people too poor to pay.
“Coffee consumption predated the unification of Italy by more than 200 years, so the rituals and traditions
around it are very ancient,” Andrea Illy, chairman of Illy, said in a phone interview. “In Naples, coffee is a world in
itself, both culturally and socially. Coffee is a ritual carried out in solidarity.” That solidarity is spreading. In 2010, an
ensemble of small Italian cultural festivals gave form to the tradition of generosity by creating the Suspended Coffee
Network.
The purpose was to weather the severe cuts to the state cultural budgets by organizing and promoting their own
activities together. But it also started solidarity initiatives for those in need. Encouraging a donated coffee was one of
them. Now, across Italy, the bars that ha ve joined the network display the suspended coffee label — a black and brown
sticker with a white espresso cup — in their windows.
“To me,” said a bartender, “The philosophy of the suspended coffee is that you are happy today, and you give a
coffee to the world, as a present.”
41 What is the main idea of this passage?
A heartwarming tradition and its practice. A recipe for making good coffee.
The folklore and geography of a city. A moral lesson about generosity.

42 What is true about Laura Cozzolino in the cafe?
She examined the color of the expresso and gave it back to the bartender.
She relished the wonderful smell of the expresso and drank it quickly.
She associated the expresso with something else and lost in her memory.
She felt energetic and knocked on the counter twice.
43 What does the word “weather” in the passage mean?
To recover from a serious damage. To manage through a difficult situation.
To prevent something from happening. To result in a disaster.
44 According to the passage, why is coffee so important to people in Naples ?
Coffee is very difficult to get during hard times.
Coffee is a cultural and social ritual bringing people together.
Coffee is necessary when they eat pizza and sandwich.
Coffee has made all people in Naples equal, rich or poor.
45 According to the passage, which of the following statements about “suspended coffee” is true?
It is mostly on the house; therefore, it’s free.
It is available in every coffee shop in Naples.
It is deposited by the customer to save trouble next time.
It is coffee donated for strangers.

Umbilical cord blood was once discarded as waste material bu t is now known to be a useful source of blood stem
cells. After a baby is born, cord blood is left in the umbilical cord and placenta. It is easy to collect, with no risk to the
mother or baby. It contains haematopoietic (blood) stem cells: rare cells normally found in the bone marrow.
Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) can make every type of cell in the blood – red cells, white cells and platelets. They
have been used for many years in bone marrow transplants to treat blood diseases.
Cord blood is used to treat children with cancerous blood disorders such as leukemia, or genetic blood diseases
like Fanconi anemia. The cord blood is transplanted into the patient, where the HSCs can make new, healthy blood
cells to replace those damaged by the patient’s disease or by a medical treatment such as chemotherapy for cancer. In
this way, cord blood offers a useful alternative to bone marrow transplants for some patients. It also seems to be less
likely than bone marrow to cause immune rejection or complications such as Graft versus Host Disease.
However, cord blood transplants also have limitations. Treatment of adults with cord blood has so far proved to
be very challenging, despite some successes. Cord blood can also only be used to treat blood diseases. No therapies for
non-blood-related diseases have yet been developed using HSCs from either cord blood or adult bone marrow. A major
limitation of cord blood transplantation is that the blood obtained from a single umbilical cord does not contain as
many haematopoeitic stem cells as a bone marrow donation. A transplant containing too few HSCs may fail or could
lead to slow formation of new blood in the body in the early days after transplantation. This has been partially
overcome by transplanting blood from two umbilical cords into larger children and adults. Some researchers have also
tried to increase the total number of HSCs obtained from each umbilical cord by collecting additional blood from the
placenta. Much research is focused on trying to increase the number of HSCs that can be obtained from one cord blood
sample by growing and multiplying the cells in the laboratory. This is known as “ex vivo expansion”. Several
preliminary clinical trials using this technique are underway. The results so far are mixed: some results suggest that ex
vivo expansion reduces the time taken for new blood cells to appear in the body after transplantation; however, adult
patients still appear to need blood from two umbilical cords. Neither solution is entirely satisfactory.
46 What is the main idea of this passage?
Cord blood is a panacea that can cure all diseases.
Cord blood has a good application but it also has limitations.
Cord blood treatment is only applicable to children.
Cord blood is much easier and safer to collect than bone marrow.
47 According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about the feature of umbilical cord blood?
It is collected during the delivery process. It causes less immune rejection than bone marrow.
It can cure children’s blood-related diseases. It is the by-product of chemotherapy for cancer.
48 According to the author, what is the main problem about the cord blood transplants on adult patients?
Adults tend to have stronger immune rejection complications.
HSCs in cord blood is inadequate for the treatment of adults.
A baby’s cord blood is effective only for his or her parents.
HSCs in cord blood will be killed in “ex vivo expansion.”
49 When the scientists apply the cord blood treatment to adults patients, which of the following procedure is true?
They use only part of the cord blood. They collect all blood cells from the womb.
They cultivate stem cells in the laboratory. They give up on test on chemotherapy for cancer.
50 Where is the passage most likely taken from?
