Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur(创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids’ teeth, instead of destroying them.
It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can’t I make a healthy candy that’s good for my teeth so that my parents can’t say no to it ” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.
With her dad’s permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.
Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore’s product—CanCandy.
As CanCandy’s success grows, so does Moore’s credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she’s also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.
Meanwhile, with her parents’ help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn’t driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilieCandy’s profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore.
26．How did Moore react to her dad’s warning
A．She argued with him. B．She tried to find a way out.
C．She paid no attention. D．She chose to consult dentists.
27．What is special about CanCandy
A．It is beneficial to dental health. B．It is free of sweeteners.
C．It is sweeter than other candies. D．It is produced to a dentists’ recipe.
28．What does Moore expect from her business
A．To earn more money. B．To help others find smiles.
C．To make herself stand out. D．To beat other candy companies.
29．What can we learn from Alice Moore’s story
A．Fame is a great thirst of the young. B．A youth is to be regarded with respect.
C．Positive thinking and action result in success. D．Success means getting personal desires satisfied

Three scientists who played central roles in the discovery of the hepatitis C virus (丙型肝炎病毒) have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2020. This prize will be shared by Michael Houghton, from the United Kingdom, and United States scientists Harvey J. Alter and Charles M. Rice, who all made notable contributions toward the discovery of the blood-born virus that causes chronic (慢性的) liver problems.
Alter demonstrated in the 1970s that some people who received blood transfusions (输血) would develop cases of hepatitis that were not caused by the hepatitis A or B viruses, suggesting that another infectious agent was to blame. In the 1980s, Houghton managed to isolate (分离) the genetic sequence of the virus, while Rice proved that the pathogen(病原体) could replicate and cause infection. The World Health Organization estimates that around 71 million people worldwide live with hepatitis C, which can cause major liver complications (并发症) and, in some cases, death.
The Nobel Assembly said the three researchers had contributed to a “landmark achievement in the ongoing battle against viral diseases”. “The discovery of hepatitis C virus revealed the cause of the remaining cases of chronic hepatitis and made blood tests and new medicines that have saved millions of lives possible, ” the assembly said in a statement. “Thanks to their discovery, highly sensitive blood tests for the virus are now available and these have essentially eliminated post-transfusion hepatitis in many parts of the world, greatly improving global health. ” The assembly said that the discoveries performed by the newly minted Nobel Laureates also allowed for the rapid development of antiviral drugs directed at hepatitis C．“For the first time in history, the disease can now be cured, raising hopes of eradicating hepatitis C virus from the world population”, the statement said.
The award for physiology and medicine is the first of the Nobel Prizes to be handed out this year, with prizes in physics, chemistry, literature, peace and economics to follow during the next seven days.
30．What was the important discovery of three scientists
A．The hepatitis A virus B．The hepatitis B virus
C．The hepatitis C virus. D．The risk of blood transfusions.
31．Who succeeded in extracting the sequence of the virus
A．Michael Houghton B．Harvey J. Alter
C．Charles M. Rice D．The World Health Organization
32．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3
A．The significance of the discovery. B．The course of the discovery.
C．The disadvantage of the discovery. D．The harm of the hepatitis.
33．What does the underlined word “eradicating” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Discovering. B．Knowing.
C．Analysing. D．Getting rid of.
