二、阅读理解(共4题,共 20分)

26、On April 14th,2010,my entire life changed in an instant.One moment I was joyfully riding through the sunshine.The next moment,metal,flesh and bone were spreading against the pavement in a thunderous crash.Another cyclist,biking carelessly,had cut me off and sent me supermanning toward oncoming traffic.

As if to symbolize the accident that had hit my life,another disaster also occurred on April 14th,2010.It cost the airline industry$l.7 billion.Ten million travelers were stuck for days.Economies all over the world were disturbed.This was the eruption of Eyjafjallajokull,one of Iceland's many volcanoes.

However,volcanoes are not all bad.In fact,they are necessary.They are responsible for the birth of new earth,and for the creation of rich soil.This eruption gave off 0.15 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere daily.But cancelling 48% of the world’s flight travel saved about 2.8 million tons of CO from entering the atmosphere,temporarily decreasing our carbon footprint.

Similarly,the accident had badly affected my emotion but it also allowed me to look more closely inside myself and discover things about myself I never would have realized.I learned how not to judge myself for my new limitations.

In 1973,another Icelandic volcano,Eldfell,broke out.Icelanders decided to bomb it with cold water until it froze and chose a different path.After their plan worked,they used the geothermal (地热) energy for the next 15years to heat their homes.A good example of life bringing lemons,and making lemonade! One must move on from misfortunes,focusing only on the present moment and being hopeful for the future.

I ran from April 14th,2010,to every kind of escape.Eventually I ended up in university for a new-found love in Earth sciences.

【1】What happened to the writer on April 14th,2010?

A.He was involved in a car crash.

B.He was stuck in Iceland's airport.

C.He witnessed a volcanic eruption.

【2】Which was an effect of the eruption of Eyjafjallajokull?

A.Economy was cost globally by the eruption.

B.Carbon dioxide was increased temporarily.

C.Most of the world's planes were held up.

D.The earth in Ireland was terribly polluted.

【3】Why did the writer mention the Eldfell volcano?

A.It broke out in Iceland on April 14th as well.

B.It symbolized the accident that changed his life.

C.It told us to make the most of given situation.

D.It encouraged him to know more about himself.

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

A.Escape from Volcanoes.

B.Inspiration from Disasters.

C.Love for Earth Science.

27、   In tough economic times, school counselors (顾问) don’t just wait for students to come to their offices in search of college brochures, health pamphlets or other help. These days, they are looking for at-risk kids to prevent personal or academic troubles before they arise. Nowadays, students and families need the guidance more than ever.

Counselors play a steadying role in schools as the economy weighs on families, college admission becomes even more competitive, immigration continues to reshape the population and state-testing pressures many students. They use computers to search through attendance data, grades and standardized test scores for kids who might need extra help.

Schlatter, director of guidance and counseling at Prince William County’s Woodbridge Senior High School, has checked attendance records against grades and test results to start peer groups (同年龄群体) for students who are failing classes but not skipping them. She said group counseling is another way to reach more students though it can be difficult. “Kids really do start helping and sharing with each other.”

At Fairfax High School, counselors found through surveys that students who transferred (转学) to the school after ninth grade enjoyed school significantly less than those who had been there all four years. The counseling staff set up a special program and group for new arrivals in response, said Marcy Miller, the school’s director of student services. Counseling staff members also have started small study groups for students to prepare for state Standards of Learning exams, which Miller said have helped raise test scores. She said that some of the newest counselors have had some of the freshest ideas.

1We can learn from the passage that __________.

A.counselors don’t wait for kids to come to ask for help now

B.counselors are trying to help people with economic problems

C.counselors have made college admission less competitive

D.counselors are trying to reach more kids in need of help

2The author uses the example of Fairfax High School to show that ________.

A.counseling work is obviously effective B.many students transfer there for help

C.new arrivals will no longer skip classes D.counseling means little to new arrivals

3What would the author most probably discuss in the following part?

A.What assistance they can offer.

B.The significance of their counseling job.

C.Other approaches to counseling at-risk kids.

D.The barriers of counseling the students with troubles.

4Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?

A.Guiding Hands Find New Ways B.Small Study Groups Raise Test Scores

C.Transferred Students Need More Help D.Tough Times See More At-risk Kids

28、   When the men appeared then bearing this old music-box, and Amelia gave orders should be placed in the chamber, William Dobbin was quite overjoyed. “I'm glad you've kept it,” he said in a very sad manner. “I was afraid you didn't care about it.”

“I value it more than anything I have in the world,” said Amelia.

“Do you, Amelia?” cried the Major. The fact was, as he had bought it himself, though he never said anything about it, it never entered into his head to suppose that Emmy should think anybody else was the purchaser, and as a matter of course he fancied that she knew the gift came from him. “Do you, Amelia?” he said; and the question, the great question of all, was trembling on his lips, when Emmy replied, “Can I do otherwise?- did not he give it to me?”

“I did not know,” said poor old Dob, and his countenance (脸色) fell.

Emmy did not note the circumstance at the time, nor take immediate notice of the very miserable expression which honest Dobbin's countenance assumed, but she thought of it afterwards. And then it struck her, with inexpressible pain and embarrassment too, that it was William who was the giver of the piano, and not George, as she had fancied. It was not George’s gift; the only one which she had received from her lover, as she thought-the thing she had cherished beyond all others-her dearest relic and prize. She had spoken to it about George, played his favourite airs upon it: sat for long evening hours, touching, to the best of her simple art, sad harmonies on the keys, and weeping over them in silence. It was not George’s relic. It was valueless now. The next time that old Sedley asked her to play, she said it was shockingly out of tune, that she had a headache, that she couldn’t play.

Then, according to her custom, she scolded herself for her pettishness (任性) and ingratitude and determined to do something for honest William for the slight she had not expressed to him, but had felt for his piano. A few days afterwards, as they were seated in the drawing-room, where Jos had fallen asleep with great comfort after dinner, Amelia said with rather a broken voice to Major Dobbin. “I have to beg your pardon for something.”

“About what?” said he.

“About-about that little square piano. I never thanked you for it when you gave it to me, many, many years ago, before I was married. I thought somebody else had given it. Thank you. William.” She held out her hand, but the poor little woman’s heart was bleeding; and as for her eyes, of course they were at their work.

But William could hold no more.

【1】Why was Dobbin surprisingly glad to see the old music-box?

A.Because he liked to see Amelia playing.

B.Because he hadn't thought Amelia valued it.

C.Because he found Amelia had accepted his love secretly.

D.Because he believed Amelia had found out his secret.

【2】Why did it pain and embarrass Amelia after she thought of Dobbin’s miserable expression?

A.She had let Dobbin down and felt sorry for him.

B.She was left in the dark by George for so long.

C.She had thought the piano was given by George.

D.She found George loved her no more than Dobbin.

【3】The underlined part “and as for her eyes, of course they were at their work” probably means ________.

A.her eyes welled up with tears

B.she gave William the glad eye

C.her eyes lighted up with excitement

D.she looked William up and down

【4】What would William probably do next?

A.Ask Amelia to return the piano.

B.Hurt Amelia without mercy.

C.Leave Amelia alone.

D.Pour out his love for Amelia.

29、Methods to Help Solve Air Pollution

With the development of the industry, air pollution has become an internationally concerned issue. The governments are taking efficient measures to prevent the situation getting worse. 【1】 Here are what you can do to help.

1.Leave your cars at home.

Cars, being the greatest source of air pollution, can be left at home this weekend. 【2】 Other greener options are carpooling, riding a bike or you can also walk if you want a healthier option and if your workplace is not that far away from your home.

2.Volunteer yourself

This is one of the best things you can do. Why? Because it will do you good too.

【3】 If you have time, there are lots of opportunities out there to pitch in, for instance, planting trees, cleaning a park or simply coming up with ways you can preserve mother Earth.

3.Green-up your home.

This is one of the most common things that people do whenever Earth Day rolls around. That is to switch off their lights. However, this is not something you should do just for a day and for only an hour. 【4】 In addition, take out all the plugs from plug points even after switching them off.

4.Pledge (保证) to do more every day

You know what the best way to celebrate Earth Day is? Extend your celebrations. That’s right! Do something every day that will improve your surroundings to make the planet a better place to live in. 【5】 The future of our planet is in your hands.

A.Bathing every day is bad for our health.

B.Voluntary work does good to your body and mind.

C.Travelling via public transport is the better option.

D.Join other like-minded individuals in a common task.

E.Always remember that every step, every initiative counts.

31、Face shape lets AI spot rare disorders

People with genetic syndromes (综合征) sometimes have revealing facial features, but using them to make a quick and cheap diagnosis can be _______given there are hundreds of possible conditions they may have. A new neural (神经系统) network that analyses photographs of faces can help doctors _______the possibilities.

Yaron Gurovich at biotechnology firm FDNA in Boston and his team built a neural network to look at the overall impression of faces and _______ a list of the 10 genetic syndromes a person is most likely to have.

They _______ the neural network, called DeepGestalt, on 17,000 images correctly labeled to match more than 200 genetic syndromes.The team then asked AI to _______potential genetic disorders from a further 502 photos of people with such conditions. It included the correct answer among its list of 10 responses 91 per cent of the time.

Gurovich and his team also_______the neural network's ability to distinguish between the different genetic mutations (父异) that can lead to the same syndrome.They used photographs of people with Noonan syndrome, which can result from mutations in any one of five genes.DeepGestalt correctly identified the genetic source of the physical appearance 64 per cent of the time. It’s clearly not _______, but it’s still much better than humans are at trying to do this.

As the system makes its assessments, the facial regions that are most helpful in the determination are_______and made available for doctors to view. This helps them to understand the relationships between genetic make-up and physical appearance.

The fact that the diagnosis is based on a simple photograph raises questions about_______. If faces can reveal details about genetics, then employers and insurance providers could, in principle,__________ use such techniques to__________ against people who have a high probability of having certain disorders.__________. Gurovich says the tool will only be __________for use by clinicians.

This technique could bring significant__________ for those who have genetic syndromes. The real value here is that for some of these ultra-rare diseases, the process of diagnosis can be many, many years. This kind of technology can help narrow down the search space and then be confirmed through checking genetic markers. For some diseases, it will cut down the time to diagnosis dramatically. For others, it could perhaps add means of finding other people with the disease and, __________, help find new treatments or cures.

Why Cold weather Causes So many Flight Cancellation?

Each year, about 60,000 flights get canceled because of bad winter weather, which costs airlines and airports an estimated $3 billion. But it’s not the freezing cold temperatures that cause problems for planes. After all, 1 jets fly 10 kilometers up, where temperatures hover around -50 degrees Celsius.

In fact, planes 2 in cold weather, since cold air is denser and leads to better thrust. Clearly, the real problem isn’t what’s going on up there. It’s what’s happening on the ground.

When a 3 polar vortex (极地涡旋) struck the Midwestern US in January 2019, temperatures dropped to -40 degrees Celsius and airline canceled 3,000 flights nationwide. In these situations, when temperatures start 4, everything slows down. Cargo doors can freeze up, along with the nozzles that pump fuel into planes, which delays the 5 process.

Even the plane itself can freeze over. Just a quarter-inch - thick layer of ice on a plane can disrupt the way air flows over its wings.

Les Westbrooks: The number one reason, I would say, that the reason flights get delayed in cold weather is going to be because there’s some kind of frozen precipitation, from frost to snow to a sheet of ice, adhering to the aircraft, adhering to the wings of the aircraft 6.

That’s Les Westbrooks, a retired airline pilot and an associate professor of aeronautical science at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. He says that 7, these planes are “de-iced” - but this also delays takeoff. The crew can spray the plane with a special hot water/ glycol mixture. It can take around 40 minutes to de-ice large passenger airplanes, so planes often have to wait “their turn” for the de-icing station, which, of course, can trigger more delays.

And ice on the runway, of course, creates another set of 8. In 2014, a plane at JFK skidded off an icy runway and into a mound of snow, leading to an hours-long shutdown at the airport. And even though crews can remove ice from the runway, scraping it off the pavement can lead to potholes (坑洞) and other 9, which makes takeoffs and landings more dangerous. And of course, snow and freezing rain on the ground can affect visibility to the point where officials have to decide it’s not safe to fly at all.

But if ice and snow aren’t the problem in these extremely cold temperatures, it’s usually another factor: people.

Les Westbrooks: The airplane flies at high altitudes, -60 degrees. It’s made to do that. Humans are not made to be outside in -60 degrees weather. And so the human factor becomes a big, big factor, when it becomes extremely cold.

Baggage handlers, aircraft fuelers, and mechanics all have to stay warm. Some airports, like O’Hare in Chicago, set up heated shelters for their employees. Of course, with everyone taking breaks to warm up, not as much gets done, which leads to even more delays and cancellations. Passengers start missing their 10 flights, and that, along with passengers who can’t make it to the airport due to bad road conditions, leads to half-empty planes.

In fact, many airlines might preemptively cancel flights before bad weather even hits. So, in the end, you can still blame cold weather for cancelling your flight.

40、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 续写的词数应为150左右。

You never know the difference you might make if you take the time to encourage someone. I gave up the idea of being a writer the summer before I started college. I’d been writing since I was five years old. My little friends wanted toys at that time, but I just wanted paper. Childhood passed and a box of short stories gave way to my middle school days. I wrote for a magazine and by the time I was in my eighth grade, half of the annual publications were written by me. Sometimes I'd dream about being a novelist, writing books that everyone might read. My dad was always sure that it would happen. When he read my poems or stories, his eyes welled up. "That's beautiful, honey,” he always told me. "One day, the entire world will know what a gift you have.” Those words encouraged me through high school to keep believing that writing was my calling.

But somewhere along the months of my senior year, I became disappointed. The crazy injustice in this world — bad guys getting buck out on the street and doing harm again and again, changed my mind.”I m going to be a lawyer in the future,” I told my parents. My dad’s face fell, but he kept his smile. "Whatever you do, you'll be brialliant at it," he said to me.

One of my first classes at college was Journalism 100. One day, the professor, Bob Scheibel, assigned us a story about an apartment fire. He gave us the facts and we had a few days to write a news story.

I was sure that I had gotten the facts right when I wrote the story. I didn’t expect much feedback. But a few days later, Bob Scheibel asked me to talk to him after class. Questions raced through my mind. What had I done wrong? Had I gotten the facts mixed up? Did I miss anything critical in the details? Five minutes after the class, I found myself in front of the professor. His eyes met mine with great seriousness.
