13．No bird and no beast in the lonely island．（　　）

A．

are seen

B．

is seen

C．

see

D．

sees

分析在这座孤岛上，看不到一只鸟和野兽．

解答答案：B
这个考察的是主谓一致：由and连接的两个或三个单数主语前如果有every，each，no，many a修饰时，谓语动词要用单数形式．再接合句意可知，bird和beast与see之间是被动关系，故使用被动语态，即答案为B．

1．We know the famous ones-the Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells-but what about the less famous inventors？What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper （雨刮器）？Shouldn't we know who they are？
Joan Mclean thinks so．In fact，Mclean，a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range，feels so strongly about this matter that she's developed a course on the topic．In addition to learning"who"invented"what"，however，Mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the"why"and"how"questions．According to Mclean，"When students learn the answers to these questions，they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try．"
Her students agree．One young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of McLean's statement．"If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper's invention，"said Tommy Lee，a senior physics major．"I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rain storm into something so meaningful．"Lee is currently negotiating（商谈） to sell his patent to an umbrella producer．
So，just what is the story behind the windshield wiper？Well，Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902after a visit to New York City．The day was cold and stormy，but Anderson still wanted to see the sights，so she jumped aboard a streetcar．Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield，she found herself wondering why there couldn't be a built-in device for cleaning the window．Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham，Alabama，Anderson started working out solutions．One of her ideas，a lever （操作杆） on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside，became the first windshield wiper．
Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations（创新）．It's hard to imagine driving without Garrett A．Morgan's traffic light．It's equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J．Blodgett's innovation that makes glass invisible．

4．"A room without books is like a body without a soul，"observed the Roman philosopher，Cicero．It can also be a sign of financial problems to come．New research has uncovered a strong connection between the earning of adults and whether they grew up surrounded by books as children
Three economists at the University of Padua-Giorgio Brunello，Guglielmo Weber and Christoph Weiss-studied 6000 men born in nine European countries and concluded that children with access to books could expect to earn more money than those who grew up with few or no books．
They studied the period from 1920 to 1956，when school reforms saw the minimum school leaving age raised across Europe．They booked at whether，at the age of 10，a child lived in a house with fewer than 10books，a shelf of books，a bookcase with up to 100 books，two bookcases，or more than two bookcases．
Over the period studied，the research，published in The Economic Journal，found that an additional year of education increased a man's average lifetime earnings by 9%．Men brought up in houses with less than a shelf of books earned only 5% more as a result of the extra year's education，compared with 21% more for those who had access to a lot of books．Ands those who had access to books were more likely to move to the better-earning opportunities in cities than those without books．The men's first job was also much more likely to be a white-collar job
The economists offer a number of theories for the results．"perhaps books matter because they encourage children to read more and reading can have positive effects on school performance，"they said．
The number of books in children's homes can effectively predict their cognitive（认知的）test scores．This may indicate a home that encourages cognitive skills，which are important for economic success in life．
