On May 26, He Jiang, a 2016 PhD（博士學(xué)位）graduate, gave a speech that stood for the graduate students at commencement. Its one of the highest honors for a Harvard graduate.In his speech, he told a story about his childhood. He grew up in a poor village in Hunan. Once a spider bit him on the hand, and his mother had to set his hand on fire to cure him. There were no doctors in the village, and this was the only cure a rural woman knew.When he got older, he couldnt help but think about why there wasnt a better cure at that time. And he thought out the answer - the unequal distribution of knowledge in the world.“Even today we havent been very successful in bringing knowledge to where its needed most,” said He. “Even basic life-saving knowledge we can get easily in the modern world is often unavailable in poor areas.” According to the China Children and Teenagers Foundation, there are still around 3 million children in China lacking education, and most of them live in rural areas.“One of the biggest problems for rural students is that they lack chances as well as motivation(積極性). It disturbs me that many people in rural areas think studying is useless.” Said He.But He Jiang knows how education can change peoples lives. “I just hope my experience can give those rural students a bit of encouragement and hope,” said He.（1）When did the story He Jiang told happen?A .

For years, scientists said no or we dont know. But today this is changing. Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are astronomers (天文學(xué)家). They believe intelligent life exists somewhere in the universe. They also think we will soon contact these beings.Why do Shostak and Barnett think intelligent life exists on other planets? The first reason is time. Scientists believe the universe is about 12 billion years old. This is long enough for other planets to have intelligent life, say Shostak and Barnett. The second reason is sizethe universe is huge. Tools like the Hubble Telescope (哈勃望遠(yuǎn)鏡) have shown that there are at least 100 billion galaxies, says Shostak. And our galaxy, the Milky Way, has at least 100 billion stars. Some planets going around these stars might be similar to Earth.In the past, it was hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe. But now, powerful telescopes (高倍望遠(yuǎn)鏡) allow scientists to discover smaller planetsthe size of Mars or Earthin other solar systems. These planets might have intelligent life.Have beings from space already visited Earth? Probably not, says Shostak. Its a long way away. However, intelligent beings may contact us in other ways, such as radio signals. They may be trying to communicate with us now, but we dont have the right tools to receive their messages. However, this is changing. By 2025, we could make contact with other life forms in our universe and we might help each other.（1）Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are _.

For example, a person who is very good at math can go to a famous college but also can be a good football player .This experience made me think again that I must try to find where my own interests might lead me . To be honest, it was not easy . However, I never felt sorry to choose this way because it helped me understand myself . If I took the College Entrance Examination,as we call it gaokao in China, it could never possibly do .When I entered high school, I took gaokao seriously because it seemed to me a great way to show how good at my lessons .

Although I had no time for it, I will still get to it in the future .No doubt, gaokao provides a way of choosing those who are successful in their studies .

This is because we now live in a world in which all of our other human qualities ( 品質(zhì)）are needed for success, not just the high grade .Ken Robinson once said, “ the society depends on different kinds of talents . ” However, gaokao pays too attention to a persons grades but little to his other qualities. And it is these qualities that makes life colorful and fun .As high school students, we can not change the present situation of eduction, but we are always free to think outside of the box . Although good school grade is still useful, I hope one day we will see our education also welcomes the amazing possibilities in different people .（1）The US College pay special attention to _.A . studentsfamily background .B . the different achievementC . studentsideas about way of life .D . the school a student is from .（2）When at high school, the writer _.A . had a lot of activitiesB . did not work hard at her lessonsC . did well in gaokaoD . had no time to play the guitar .（3）From the passage, we know that the writer may _.A . go to college in AmericaB . give up the US college interview .C . become a good football player in the US.D . change the present situation of eduction .（4）Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A .
