Clara Barton, born on Christmas in 1821, is widely known as one of the most honored women in American 
history. She began teaching school when most teachers were men at that time. Later, she became one of the 
first women ever to be employed by the government.
Her career in helping the sick began when her brother David became her first patient. He fell down from the roof of a house when Clara was just 11 years old. She stayed by his side and looked after him for three 
years, learning how to give him all his medicines.
When the Civil War began in 1861, she immediately recognized that the poorly equipped soldiers needed 
help. Instead of waiting for others to step in, Clara collected necessary things on her own, asked the public for donations and learned how to store and distribute them to soldiers. She also read to the soldiers and 
wrote letters for them.
After the Battle of Cedar Mountain in northern Virginia in 1862, Clara arrived at a field hospital at midnight with a vehicle full of supplies. A doctor named Paul Smith at that hospital would later write, “I thought 
heaven had sent out an angel that night — her assistance arrived at exactly the right time.”
In 1869, Clara went to Europe and learned about the International Committee of the Red Cross. Upon her 
return to the United States, she successfully founded the American Red Cross. She led the organization for 
the next 23 years. Her last field mission (使) as president of the American Red Cross was to help the victims of the 1900 Galveston hurricane. She did not retire (退) from the American Red Cross until she was 83. 
True to her nature, Clara always went to where the needwas the greatest.
Today, the American Red Cross continues the mission Clara started more than 100 years ago. With the help of thousands of volunteers, the American Red Cross provides relief to victims of disasters, as well as helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to all sorts of emergencies.
24.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that Clara Barton was _____.
A. modest             B. caring      C. talented             D. honest
25.After the Civil War broke out, Clara Barton _____.
A. joined the army and fought bravely B. went to Europe for further study
C. did a lot to help soldiers D. continued to work as a teacher
26.What is mainly described in Paragraph 5?
A. The aim of the American Red Cross.
B. The importance of voluntary donations.
C. Clara Barton’s contribution to the Civil War.
D. Clara Barton and the American Red Cross.
27. Seeing Clara Barton’s arrival, Dr. Smith must have felt _____.
A. excited and grateful   B. proud and joyful C. shy and nervous         D. sad and sorry

The Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences has been awarded to Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo, and Michael Kremer "for their experimental approach to alleviating global poverty".
Duflo became only the second woman to win a share of the award.
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced it had selected them on Monday. Their prizes will be formally presented, along with those of other Nobel Laureates, at a lavish banquet in Stockholm, Sweden on Dec 10, which is the anniversary of the death of Alfred Nobel, the industrialist and scientist after whom the awards are named. The king of Sweden will present the winners with medals, certificates, and 9 million kronor ($918,000) in each discipline. A maximum of three people can share each prize each year.
The academy said it selected Banerjee, Duflo, and Kremer because of their research into the "daunting issue" of global poverty. It said they tackled the issue by breaking it down into smaller questions that could be better asked and answered. It said they looked into how best to improve the health of children by examining their educations, health systems, agricultural approaches, and access to credit.
Forty-six-year-old Duflo, who is the youngest person to win the prize, said current turbulence in global economics can be traced back to a changing world order.
"I think we live in turbulent times when many individuals in rich countries are deeply concerned about their position in the world," she said. That anxiety is "at the root of much of the turbulence we are seeing".
Kremer conducted field experiments in the 1990s on how various interventions improved academic results for children in Kenya. Banerjee and Duflo conducted similar experiments in India.
Banerjee and Duflo are married and based at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Kremer is an academic at Harvard University.
The prize, which is officially known as The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel, is generally thought of as the most prestigious award in the field of economics and has been presented annually since 1969. Unlike the other Nobel prizes, it was not established in 1901 based on instructions contained in Nobel's will but was set up by Sweden's central bank, Sveriges Riksbank, to mark its 300th anniversary. It is, however, managed by the Nobel Foundation, along with the other Nobel prizes.
The Nobel Prize in Economics was the last in a series of Nobel prizes for 2019 to be announced in recent days; following on from prizes in medicine, physics, chemistry, literature, and the highly coveted Nobel Peace Prize
28. According to the passage which of the following descriptions is incorrect?
A. Duflo as well as the other two scientists is to accept the Nobel Prize on Dec. 10 in Stockholm.
B. The 3 winners this year adopted similar approach to the issue of global issue.
C. Duflo believes the present turbulent world economics is rooted in a changing world order.
D. Kremer found varieties of interventions helpful in field experiments performed in Kenya and Indian.
29. What does the underlined word tackled in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. stopped B. solved C. improved D. examined
30. What does Duflo think of a lot of people in rich countries?
A. They don’t care about those living the poverty.
B. They will put an end to the turbulence in global economics.
C. They are worried about losing the edge over people in other counties.
D. Individuals in rich countries are deeply anxious about the turbulence.
31. We can learn from the passage _____.
A. Banerjee and Kremer are scholars at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
B. The Nobel Prizes were all established in 1901 based on instructions contained in Nobel’s will.
C. The Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences is the most famous award in the field of economics.
D. The Nobel Foundation is not in charge of the management of the Nobel Prize in Economics.

Hunan province in Central China is also home of many influential and talented celebrities, including thought leaders, artists, inventors and political figures, Yuan Shenggao reports.
Located in Central China, Hunan province boasts a splendid history and abundant cultural heritage.

The conference was held to brief the media on a series of events launched by the province in celebration of the 70th anniversary of the People's Republic of China on Oct 1.
