【题目】Researchers with the University of Cambridge say they have the first real evidence of a new state of matter, some 40 years after it was first theorized.

Known as “quantum spin liquid(量子旋转水)”, the matter state causes normally unbreakable electrons to break into pieces called “Majorana fermions.” These fermions are an important discovery. Physicists believe the material is vital to further develop quantum computing. Computers employing Majorana femuons would be able to carry out calculations beyond the scale of modern computers quickly, they say.

Quantum spin liquid explains some of the eccentric behaviors inside magnetic(磁性的) materials. In these materials, the electrons should behave like small bar magnets, all adjusting towards magnetic north when a material is cooled. But not all magnetic materials do this—if the material contains quantum spin liquid, the electrons don’t all line up and become involved.

“Until recently, we didn’t even know what the experimental fingerprints of a quantum spin liquid would look like,” researcher Dr.Dmitry Kovrizhin says. “That created a challenge for the researchers, so they decided to employ neutron scattering(神经扫描) techniques to look for evidence of break”. What they found surprised them. The features matched nearly exactly with quantum spin liquid models theorized by physicist Phil Anderson in 1973. The results of their breakthrough were then published in the scientific journal Nature Materials on Monday.

Don’t get too excited just yet on its applications, though. Kovirzhin’s work is only the beginning and as we’ve seen with quantum computing there is a lot of work to be done. But it’s still exciting regardless.

“It’s an important step for our understanding of quantum matter,” Kovrizhin says. “It’s fun to have another new quantum state that we’ve never seen before—it presents us with new possibilities to try new things.”

【1】What can we learn about “Majorana fermion” according to Paragraph 2?

A. It is an important discovery 40 years ago.

B. It is a surprising theory raised by Phil Anderson.

C. It is a key piece in developing quantum computer.

D. It is an unbreakable electrons employing computer.

【2】Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “eccentric” in Paragraph 3?

A. Strange. B. Complex. C. Permanent. D. Obvious.

【3】How did the researchers make the breakthrough?

A. By adjusting magnetic materials.

B. By using neutron scattering techniques.

C. By repeating maths calculations.

D. By changing electronic structure.

【4】What is the author’s tone about the future of quantum matter?

A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Indifferent. D. Optimistic.

【题目】Maybe you have heard the expression “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”. So when you want to do business in France, you have to get to know French culture, to make marketing plans, and to run your business by local laws.

【1】The French take great pride in their language, so anyone who does not speak it may run the risk of being disrespected by his French colleagues or business partners. Also, another reason why learning French is important is that it is a great way to show every possible French business partner that you care and respect their country’s culture and language.

The first thing that you should do when meeting someone new is to shake his hand firmly and always look the person in the eye. In social meetings with friends, kissing is common.

Use first names only after being invited to. 【2】 The French will sometimes introduce themselves using their surname first, followed by their first name.

Dress well. 【3】 Your business clothing is a reflection of your success and social status. Always try to be tasteful and stylish. Women are advised to dress simply but elegantly.

The French are passionate about food, so lunches are common in doing business m France, which usually consist of an appetizer, main meal with wine, cheese, dessert and coffee, and normally take up to two hours. 【4】.

Do not begin eating until the host says, “bon appetite”. Pass dishes to the left, keep wrists above the table and try to eat everything on the plate. 【5】 This may suggest that you find the food tasteless.

A. The French draw information about people based on their appearance.

B. This is a time for relationship building.

C. Wearing make-up is practiced widely by business women.

D. Language should be the focus of anyone planning to do business in France.

【题目】It’s pretty clear that the new animated film Trolls is meant for kids , but there are a couple of PG-13 offerings this week that might be worth looking into .

Trolls

If you’re a parent , you may find this consistent cheeriness super annoying . Kids will love it , though . Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake lead an all-star voice cast in this animated musical adventure in which the Trolls try to avoid being captured and swallowed by a group of evil monsters known as the Bergens . Fine for all ages .

Doctor Strange

He is a character your kids may not have heard of before the release of this film : Doctor Stephen Strange , a once-brilliant surgeon who suffers a serious accident , reinvents himself through magic . Tutored by the powerful Ancient One , he becomes a warrior in a battle between good and evil that takes place across various dimensions（维度）. Fierce combat and urban destruction in this effects – laden Marvel blockbuster might look frightening for younger viewers . It’s intense but also a lot of fun . OK for kids around 8-10 and older – especially if they’re familiar with the Marvel movies .

Loving

This is a serious , grown-up movie , but its subject is inspiring , which makes it worthwhile for the older kids . Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga star in the drama based on a true story . They were an interracial couple – he was white , and she was black . While the two married legally in Washington DC , they found the practice was still against the law back home in rural Virginia . Their fight to keep their family together , which went all the way to the Supreme Court , changed the laws regarding interracial marriage nationwide . It’s beautifully written , shot and acted , making it appropriate – and recommended – for viewers around 12 and older .

【1】Parents might be annoyed by the movie Trolls due to __________ .

A. its special effects B. its simple subject

C. its continual liveliness D. its rude language

【2】Kids are likely to enjoy the movie Doctor Strange if __________ .

A. they have watched previous Marvel movies B. they have a good knowledge of history

C. they are interested in animated movies D. they are older than 9 years old

【3】Why is the movie Loving highly recommended for older kids ?

A. It is adapted from a true story . B. Its major actors are beautiful .

C. It is full of special effects . D. It is about an encouraging story .

【4】You are likely to find the information about in / on a __________ .

A. movie guidance for parents B. movie poster

C. science fiction column D. literary book for children
