二、阅读理解 (共4题,共 20分)
  • 26、If you were asked to imagine a scientist, what image would come to your mind? The idea that most of the kids have is a man wearing a white lab coat with messy hair, big glasses, and cups of colorful liquids giving off clouds of smoke. As for adults, the majority regard scientists as strange people who spend a lot of time working in a lonely lab. However, the reality is quite different.

    Recently I’ve had a chance to take part in a scientific experience far from my lab and into Costa Rica. It has a large amount of wildlife due to its geographical placement between North and South America. It is home to more than 500,000 species (物种), which represents nearly 4% of the species worldwide!

    First we worked to protect wildlife at a leatherback turtle (棱皮龟) protection center. We helped the volunteers to remove rubbish from the beach to create a safe environment for turtle eggs to come out. After that we stayed at Mount Arenal where we studied seismic (地壳的) activity relating to earthquakes. During our stay at Arenal, we rode over the mountainous areas and took a long walk through the rainforest. On the last day we got a professional introduction of rocket (火箭) science and learned about new rocket technology that will be used on the international space station.

    During my Costa Rica experience, I know that being a scientist doesn’t mean working in a lab all day and night. A scientist is the one who loves learning and getting a better understanding of the world from helping protect wildlife, learning about earthquakes or inventing rockets. I think that science is so much more than wearing a lab coat and mixing chemicals. Kids need to be aware of the excitement and adventures science can bring!

    【1】According to Paragraph 1, scientists are often believed ________.

    A.to do experiments in messy labs

    B.to spend too much time in labs

    C.to wear clothes in a different way

    D.to work in dangerous conditions

    【2】In Costa Rica,the author ________.

    A.experienced an earthquake

    B.took part in rocket experiments

    C.picked up rubbish on the beach

    D.helped the volunteers collect turtle eggs

    【3】What does the author learn about science from his experience?

    A.Science is full of boring experiments.

    B.Science is related to chemical liquids.

    C.Science is more than working in a lab.

    D.Science is about wildlife and earthquakes.

    【4】What is the best tide for the passage?

    A.What a Scientist Is Like

    B.Where a Scientist Works

    C.How I Traveled in Costa Rica

    D.Why I Chose to Study Science

  • 27、According to a recent study, a new genetically modified rice can prevent infections of HIV, the virus responsible for the disease AIDS.

    The study reports the newly-developed rice produces proteins that attach directly to the HIV virus. This process prevents the virus from mixing with human cells. The scientists say it can remove the effect of the virus and block its spreading.

    The Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS reports that worldwide, nearly 37 million people were living with HIV in 2017. The organization says the largest number of those are in developing countries. Nearly two-thirds of HIV cases are in Africa. Now there is no cure for HIV/AIDS though there have been developments in oral drug treatments to slow the progression of the disease.

    The new study predicts the rice-based method will lead to long-term use of the anti-HIV treatment across the developing world. Researchers said the “groundbreaking” discovery is “realistically the only way” that anti-HIV combination treatments can be produced at a cost low enough for the developing world.

    They say the easiest and most cost-effective way to use the rice will be to make it into a cream to be put on the skin. The HIV-fighting proteins can then enter the body through the skin. People all over the world could grow the rice and make the cream themselves. This would prevent the cost and travel required for many patients to receive treatments and medicine.

    The process of changing the genetic structure of food crops has been debated for some time. Critics of genetically engineered crops believe they can harm people. The scientific team says further testing is needed to ensure that the genetic engineering process does not produce any additional chemicals that could be dangerous to people.

    【1】What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?

    A.Stress the urgency of HIV treatments.

    B.Provide some data about HIV.

    C.Remind readers of HIV prevention.

    D.Introduce HIV to the public.

    【2】In which way will the rice be used at the lowest cost?

    A.By transforming it into proteins.

    B.By adding it to an oral drug.

    C.By attaching it to the HIV virus.

    D.By processing it into a cream.

    【3】What can we infer about the genetic engineering process?

    A.It can prevent infections of HIV.

    B.It can produce dangerous chemicals.

    C.It still requires perfecting.

    D.It applies to the developed world.

    【4】From which is the text probably taken?

    A.A biology textbook.

    B.A health magazine.

    C.A social webpage.

    D.A first aid brochure.

  • 28、   It was many years ago. I was a young dad sitting on the couch reading a fairy tale to my little girl. She sat next to me with her head on my arm as I told the tale. When it came to the end I finished with those famous words: “And they lived happily ever after.” As I looked over to her with her wavy(鬈曲的), brown hair and big, innocent eyes I could see the smile on her face and I never wanted it to end. Then I realized that the ending of the book was what I wanted for her. I wanted her to “live happily ever after”.

    Still, deep in my heart I knew that this couldn't always be so. I knew that there would be times when her heart was broken. I knew there would be times when she cried in sorrow and I couldn't comfort her. I knew there would be times when all she felt was fear, sadness, sorrow, and despair. As I stroked(轻抚) her hair and smiled at her I hoped that those times would be brief and that she would have joy in her life more often than not. Living happily ever after, though, seemed out of the question.

    It takes me a lot of years to realize that it is possible to live happily ever after. You just have to do it “one day at a time”. Happiness you see isn't some reward that you get at the end of your journey. Happiness isn't something that depends on what life you own. Happiness is something you create in your life choice by choice and day by day.

    The truth is happiness comes when you love. Love is a gift from God. It is love that mends broken hearts. It is love that heals grief. It is love that gives us joy. Choose to “live happily ever after, one day at a time”.

    1What is the author's wish to his daughter?

    A. Getting a good job in the future. B. Making many friends in her school.

    C. Traveling around the world in her life. D. Having a happy life ever after.

    2What can we know from Paragraph 2?

    A. Life's meaning consists in devotion.

    B. Living happily ever after seemed out of question to the author.

    C. There are times that life goes against us.

    D. Everyone has the right to obtain happiness and freedom.

    3How to get happiness in author's opinion?

    A. Reward yourself once a day. B. Create it by yourself in your daily life.

    C. Get rid of those disturbing things. D. Take charge of your life independently.

    4What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?

    A. To show the significance of love. B. To describe a daughter's growth.

    C. To introduce the definition of love. D. To tell a young father's experience.

  • 29、   So you want to figure out who moved your cheese, or just learn some spiritual laws of success. Whatever’s standing between you and happiness, chances are that someone’s written a self-help book about it. Here’s what they say.

    Book 1: Self Help by Samuel Smiles

    Book 3: The Power Of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale

    In the 1950s, minister Norman Vincent Peale brought God into the equation (平等、等式) with his message that faith is the key to achieving anything. His message? Pray, visualize (形象化) solutions, and remove self-doubt.

    Book 4: Who Moved My Cheese by Dr. Spencer Johnson

    The message of this book is that change is unavoidable. The sooner you let go of the old and embrace (拥抱) the new, the happier you’ll be.

    Expressions about water are almost as common as water itself. But many of the expressions using water have unpleasant meanings.

    The expression “to be in hot water” is one of them. It is a very old expression, which can be 1 back to 500 years ago. The expression is used to mean being in trouble. One story says it got that meaning from the custom of throwing extremely hot water down on enemies attacking a castle.

    Being in “deep water” is almost the same as being in “hot water”. When you are in deep water, you are in a difficult 2. Imagine a person who cannot swim being thrown in water over his head. You are in deep water when you are facing a problem that you do not have the ability to solve. The problem is too deep. You can be in deep water, for example, if you invest in stocks in complete 3 of the stock market.

    "Water over the dam" is another expression about a past event. It is something that cannot be 4. The expression comes from the idea that water that has 5 a dam cannot be brought back again. When a friend is 6 by a mistake she has made, you might tell her to forget about it. You say it is water over the dam.

    Another common expression, "to hold water," is about the strength or weakness of an idea or opinion that you may be arguing about. It probably comes from the way of testing the 7 of a container. If it can hold water, it is strong and has no holes in it. If your 8 can hold water, it is strong and does not have any holes. If it does not hold water, then it is weak and can not be 9.

    "Throwing cold water" also is an expression that deals with an idea or 10. For example, you want to buy a new car because the old one has some problems. But you wife "throws cold water" on the idea, because she says a new car costs too much

    Rapidly advancing technology and its impact on education has been a subject of debate. How can schools equip students with the skills they need to succeed in a challenging job market?

    Since technology is driving these changes, there is a theory that governments should keep focusing on STEM subjects. These are often referred to as “hard skills,” which are 1 in primary school and right through to university level. In the meantime, ‘soft skills’ are being 2.

    This is a mistake. Much evidence suggests that soft skills are far more 3 to graduates in the long term. Research from Harvard University on the global job market has shown that STEM- related careers grew strongly between 1989 and 2000 but have slowed down since. In contrast, jobs in the creative industries----the sector probably most 4 with the need for soft skills---are growing rapidly. Soft skills are, in fact, increasingly in demand in the workplace: Google cites creativity, leadership 5 and communication skills as top requirements for both potential and current employees.

    So why are soft skills so highly 6 for?

    With the rapid evolution of technology, a focus on hard skills leaves students 7 to change, as these often have a short shelf life. According to research by World Economic Forum, more than one in four adults reports a mismatch between their skills and those needed for their job role. If soft skills are taught well, these skills should enable students to adapt to change more easily and progress further in their 8 career.

    Of course, technical skills are important. But without the curriculum placing equal--- if not greater --- 9 on soft skills, our education systems are missing a huge trick. Hard skills may help a student get a job in a particular industry, but soft skills will help them disrupt it, achieving a wider 10 in their chosen field.
