26、Louis Armstrong had two famous nicknames. Some people called him Bagamo. They said his mouth looked like a large bag. Musicians often called him Pops, as a sign of respect for his influence on the world of music.

Born in 1901 in New Orleans, he grew up poor, but lived among great musicians. Jazz was invented in the city a few years before his birth. Armstrong often said, “Jazz and I grew up together.”

Armstrong showed a great talent for music when he was taught to play the cornet (短号) at a boy’s home. In his late teens, Armstrong began to live the life of a musician. He played in parades, clubs, and on the steamboats that traveled on the Mississippi River. At that time, New Orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians. Armstrong learned from the older musicians and soon became respected as their equal. In 1922 he went to Chicago. There, the tale of Louis Armstrong begins. From then until the end of his life, Armstrong was celebrated and loved wherever he went. Armstrong had no equal when it came to playing the American popular song.

His cornet playing had a deep humanity and warmth that caused many listeners to say,“Listening to Pops just makes you feel good all over.” He was the father of the jazz style and also one of the best-known and most admired people in the world. His death, on July 6, 1971, was headline news around the world.

【1】Armstrong was called Pops because he   .

A. looked like a musician

B. was a musician of much influence

C. showed an interest in music

D. traveled to play modern music

【2】The third paragraph is developed   .

A. by space   B. by examples

C. by time D. by comparison

【3】Which statement about Armstrong is true?

A. His tale begins in New Orleans.

B. He was born before jazz was invented.

C. His music was popular with his listeners.

D. He learned popular music at a boy’s home.

【4】Which would be the best title for the text?

A. The Invention of the Jazz Music

B. The Father of the Jazz Style

C. The Making of a Musician

D. The Spread of Popular Music

27、What do you imagine when you think of a forest? You probably imagine a vast area of land covered with trees. But as many traditional forests are destroyed, tiny forests — some as small as a tennis court — have sprung up (涌现) in cities around the world. 【1】.

These mini forests are inspired by Akira Miyawaki, a botanist, or plant scientist from Japan who pioneered a special way of growing forests. 【2】 It involves planting a wide variety of native trees close together and leaving them to grow into a forest. Miyawaki has planted more than 1,000 of these in Japan and other countries.

The Miyawaki method is said to grow trees 10 times faster than other methods. 【3】That's according to a 2018 study by Wageningen University, in the Netherlands. The study says the diversity of tree species attracts a greater variety of insects looking for food and shelter.

【4】 Boomforest is an organization in Paris, France. It planted two forests using the Japanese botanist's method. The group also teaches people how they can grow their own mini forests. In the Netherlands, IVN Nature Education has helped communities build 100 forests using the Miyawaki method. The group also educates kids about tiny forests.

Simon Lewis, a professor of global change science at University College London, is excited about tiny forests. He explains that it's important to grow trees because they absorb carbon dioxide. 【5】 He hopes more people will use the Miyawaki method to plant mini forests.

A．It plans to double that number by 2022.

B．The Miyawaki method has become popular in Europe.

C．They're increasing biodiversity (生物多样性) and fighting climate change.

D．That's a gas that contributes to climate change.

E．Lewis points to trees grown and cut down to make paper.

F．It's known as the Miyawaki method.

G．And these tiny forests are more bio-diverse than traditional forests.

28、A computer programme can identify breast cancer from routine scans with greater accuracy than human experts. Researchers said that could prove a breakthrough in the fight against the global killer.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women, and regular screening is key to discovering signs of the disease in patients before they show obvious symptoms. In Britain, women over 50 are advised to get a mammogram, an X-ray picture of the breast, every three years, and the results are analyzed by two independent experts. But interpreting the scans leaves room for error, and a small percentage of all mammograms either return a false positive—misdiagnosing(误诊) a healthy patient as having cancer-or false negative—missing the disease as it spreads.

Now researchers have trained an artificial intelligence(AI)model to detect cancer in breast scans from thousands of women in Britain and the US. The images had already been reviewed by doctors in real life, but unlike in a clinical setting, the machine had no patient history to inform its diagnosis.

The team found that their AI model could predict breast cancer from the scans with a similar accuracy level to expert radiographers(放射技师). Further, the ad showed a reduction in the cases where cancer was incorrectly identified — 5.7 percent in the US and 1.2 percent in Britain, respectively. It also reduced the percentage of missed diagnosed by 9.4 percent among US patients and by 2.7 percent in Britain.

“Application of AI is definitely great progress for the field. We think about this technology in a way that enabled an expert, or a patient finally, to get the best outcome from whatever diagnosed they've had.” said Dominic King, leader of the research group. “There's an opportunity to perfect the existing service by comparing the computer's decision with that of the first human reviewer to test his diagnosis. If the two agreed, the case was marked as reliable. That could also save the workload for another doctor.”

【1】What can we infer about mammogram from Paragraph 2?

A．It is carried out by two independent experts.

B．It is a must for all women over fifty in Britain.

C．It has proved a breakthrough in detecting cancer.

D．It plays a key role in identifying breast cancer earlier.

【2】How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed?

A．By giving examples.

B．By making comparisons.

C．By following time order.

D．By analyzing causes and results.

【3】What does Dominic King advise?

A．Reducing the workload of medical staff.

B．Training more experts to use all technology.

C．Using the AI technology as a second opinion.

D．Applying AI models to as many fields as possible.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．AI beats humans in breast cancer diagnosis

B．Fights against various cancers show promise

C．AI is widely used in health care in Britain

D．Medical diagnosed become more accurate

29、It was mid-afternoon. I looked outside my dorm window, and saw the lifeless gray sky, the snow and the trackless sidewalks. There was no one in the snow but a squirrel. The brown-gray North American squirrel,a look of terror in his shining eyes, braved the cold to throw himself over snow. In his mouth was a large acorn(橡实)—I was surprised it fit in his mouth.

I moved closer to my window, outside of which is a medium-sized tree, lacking its warm-weather leaves. The squirrel ran up rapidly, higher and higher in the tree, and his small body held onto his dear acorn.

Up he went, to the tip of one of the highest branches. I held my breath—I wondered if that slender branch could support him. I wondered if his winter food store was in this tree—squirrels are known to hide their nuts, mushrooms, and vegetation high up in trees. Outside, the squirrel firmly grasped that branch, jaw clamping(夹紧)on his acorn.

Then came the wind blowing violently, shaking the tree, the branch and the squirrel. He hung on for dear life, and both arms wrapped around the branch in the wind. I held my breath: If he fell from a height like this, then.... Seeing this little squirrel, I had my heart in my mouth. As the wind became stronger, the squirrel’s precious acorn fell to the ground. The squirrel followed its downward progress only by sight—if he let go the branch, he would fall downwards as well. I was so nervous that I didn’t take my gaze off the squirrel for one minute. Surprisingly, he then climbed down the tree and was now half-buried in the snow, searching desperately for his acorn. Finally, he made it.

The brave animal is able to survive in nature all because of its desperate efforts.The same goes for us humans. We all work hard to survive, and this is the law of nature. So effort is not something special, but a matter for all living things to do to survive.

【1】What did the author discover outside the window?

A．A squirrel was freezing nearly to death.

B．A squirrel was choked by a large acorn.

C．A squirrel was picking acorns from a tree.

D．A squirrel was climbing to the top of a tree.

【2】What does the underlined word “slender” mean in paragraph 3?

A．Dead.

B．Straight.

C．Slim.

D．Thick.

【3】What is the author’s attitude to the squirrel in paragraph 4?

A．Concerned.

B．Unfriendly.

C．Uncaring.

D．Curious.

【4】What does the story intend to convey?

A．Stop struggling, life is stopped.

B．Facts speak louder than words.

C．Failure is the mother of success.

D．Teaching others teaches yourself.

30、   When buying a smart phone, I keep my criteria simple. If the device can handle WeChat, phone calls and ________ the Internet, I purchase it. If it’s over 1,000 yuan, I ________ it. This approach to acquiring smartphones ________ for me as I keep my needs basic. Aside from saving myself money, I may have also saved myself from some wounds or burns had I chosen a flawed phone. In recent news, things have been ________ for Samsung-literally.

Samsung's most recent innovation is called the Note 7. Sadly, it was discontinued only 38 days after being made ________ for consumption. At first, a few customers complained that their phones caught fire while being ________. Samsung, being responsible, launched an investigation to ________ the cases. They issued a global recall on September 1, but it was taken merely as a suggestion and not seen as ________. Yet, earlier this month, the tech giant gave a stronger message to worldwide customers, saying all owners must stop using their Note 7s immediately.

Commercial forces encourage tech companies to push the envelope and produce new products every few months. Sometimes, a conflict of interests can occur. The greed for innovation has a funny way of causing ________ for the basics-like safety-and the Note7's situation is just one example of this. The device ________ all kinds of cool features, including a super-high-resolution camera, an iris scanner and an especially powerful ________. Ideally, manufacturers should consider all relevant aspects when creating new commodities. Samsung has both the money and technical know-how to prevent such negligence. The Note7's ________ was most likely rushed in order to make more profit, which ________ having the opposite effect. Time will tell how much this oversight will cost with respect to Samsung' fame and future.

________, it' s safe to assume that Samsung could eventually come back over the horizon and restore its reputation as a manufacturer of excellent smartphones if its new models have no major flaw. In an industry largely run by Apple and Samsung, intense competitions will only bring more benefit to consumers. If Apple were to become the only ________ company, we would be left with few options for top-of-the-line phones.

A small robot may help children who are recovering from a long-term illness in the hospital or at home.

These children may feel【1】from their friends and classmates. The robot takes their place ‘ at school. Through the robot, the children can hear their teachers and friends.

Norwegian researchers have【2】a clever way to keep children recovering from long-term illness connected to their friends and their education. Now, these children may have a high-tech friend.-a robot.

The robot is called AV1. AV1 goes to school for a child who is【3】while recovering from a long-term illness. And the child’s school friends must help. They carry the robot between classes and place the robot on the child’s desk.

A Norwegian company called No Isolation created the robot. Karen Dolva was one of the co-founders. She explains how the robot AV1 works. From home, the child uses a tablet’ or phone to start the robot. Then they use the same device to control the robot’s【4】. At school, the robot becomes the eyes, ears and voice of the child.

The student can take part in classroom【5】from wherever they are recovering, whether at home or from a hospital bed. The robot is【6】with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communicating easy.

The robot was designed to be 【7】. It is water resistant and can take a fall from a desk without damage. Inside AV1, there is a small computer connected to a 4G network A small camera【8】up to a small computer could do the job. But that would not be the same.

AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva says this is important because the robot is【9】to be a friend to the children. And robots are, quite simply, cool. The robot just became【10】to the public. Hopefully AV1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class.
