Questions 62～66 are based on the following passage.
I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field dominated by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space-time and the nature of black holes.
At 19, when I began studying astrophysics, it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D． at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement—jobs, research papers, awards—was viewed through the lens of gender （性别） politics. So were my failures. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus （相对于） right brain, or nature versus nurture （培育）, I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.
Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any and all provocations: I don’t talk about that anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender issues. Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist？ After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory.
Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how may of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don’t dismiss those concerns. Still, I don’t tell them “war” stories. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that’s a sight worth talking about.

There are two types of twins: identical and non-identical twins. Identical twins are formed from a single egg in mother's body which divides to form. two separate babies. Identical twins look the same and are often dressed by their parents in clothes of the same colors. It is often difficult to tell identical twins from each other, even when they are standing side by side. Non-identical twins come into being when the mother produces two separated eggs at the same time, both of which grow to form. babies. In this case the twins look like normal brothers and sisters and are easy to tell one from the other.
In the 1970s and 1980s a scientist did some research into twins. He invited many pairs of identical twins to university and asked them to take part in a week of tests. He was particularly interested in adopted (收养) twins who had been separated at birth. He would give the twins different kinds of tests to study their speed of thinking, their speech, their memory, the ways they saw and heard different things, and so on. Time and time again he found separated twins who preferred clothes of the same color, used the same kind of shaving soap, wore the same shaped square glasses and the same colored socks.
There is a third type of twins, but it is a very unusual one. Twins who are joined together at birth are known in western countries as Siamese twins.
(1)It is difficult to tell identical twins because ____________.
A、they are dressed in the same clothes
B、they are dressed in the same color
C、they are very alike
D、they are standing side by side
(2)If the twins are easy to tell from each other, they are ____________.
A、very probably non-identical twins
B、surely non-identical twins
C、surely identical twins
D、always a brother and a sister
(3)Which of the following is NOT true according to this passage？
A、In the 1970s and 1980s a scientist did some research into the two main types of twins.
B、In the week of tests, he tested their speed of thinking, their speech, their memory and some other things.
C、There were twins who had been separated from each other as soon as they were born.
D、Very often, separated twins were found to choose things of the same kind, the same shape and the same color.
(4)According to the passage, how many types of twins are there actually？
A、one
B、two
C、three
D、four
(5)This passage mainly tells us ____________.
A、the main types of twins
B、what has been found out about twins
C、how twins are formed
D、how a scientist studied twins
Black, white and Asian children in this group show the same patterns. However, it is clear that blacks have been greatly overrepresented in the development of American popular music and greatly underrepresented in such fields as mathematics, science and engineering.
If the abilities required in analytical fields and in music are so closely related, how can there be this great discrepancy？ One reason is that the development of mathematical and other such abilities requires years of formal schooling, while certain musical talents can be developed with little or no formal training, as has happened with a number of well-known black musicians.
It is precisely in those kinds of music where one can acquire great skill without formal training that blacks have excelled popular music rather than classical music, piano rather than violin, blues rather than opera. This is readily understandable, given that most blacks, for most of American history, have not had either the money or the leisure for long years of formal study in music.
Blacks have not merely held their own in American popular music. They have played a disproportionately large role in the development of jazz, both traditional and modern. A long string of names comes to mind—Louis Armstrong, Charlie Parker... and so on.
None of this presupposes any special innate (先天的) ability of blacks in music. On the contrary, it is perfectly consisted with blacks having no more such inborn ability than anyone else, but being limited to being able to express such ability in narrower channels than others who have had the money, the time and the formal education to spread out over a wider ranger of music, as well as into mathematics, science and engineering.
What is the main idea of the first paragraph？
A．Mathematical ability and musical ability are connected.
B．Mathematical ability has more to do with the brain than musical ability.
C．More people are good at music than math.
D．More research should be done into the relationship between mathematical ability and musical ability.
A.As Einstein was a great scientist
B.As great scientist Einstein was
C.Great scientist was as Einstein
D.Great scientist as Einstein was
The patterns within DNA are unique to each individual, except identical twins, who share the same pattern. The ability to identify these patterns has been used to convict murderers and to clear people who are wrongly accused. It is also used to identify the victims of war and settle disputes over who is the father of a child.
Jeffrey said he and his colleagues made the discovery by accident while tracking genetic variations. But, within six months of the discovery, genetic fingerprinting had been used in an immigration case, to prove that an African boy really was his parents' son. In 1986, it was used for the first time in a British criminal case: It cleared one suspect after being accused of two rapes and murders and helped convict another man.
DNA testing is now very common. In Britain, a national criminal database established in 1995 now contains 2.5 million DNA samples(样本). The U.S. and Canada are developing similar systems. But there are fears about the stored DNA samples and how they could be used to harm a person's privacy. That includes a person's medical history, racial origin or psychological profile. "There is the long-term risk that people can get into these samples and start getting additional information about a person's paternity or risk of disease," Jeffrey said.
DNA testing is not an unfailing proof of identity. Till, it is considered a reasonably reliable system for determining the things it is used for. Jeffrey's estimates(估计) the probability of two individuals' DNA profiles matching in the most commonly used tests at between one in a billion or one in a trillion.
The passage is mainly about ______.
A．the discovery of fingerprinting by Jeffery
B．the practice of fingerprinting in court
C．the fingerprinting in the present situation
D．the merits and demerits of fingerprinting
The scientist's work was based on______.
A．occasional observations
B．systematic observations
C．observations of several nests
D．observations of an undisturbed nest
