3connected

4types

5to explore

6that

7easily

8has become

9in

10their

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了计算机的发展过程和计算机给人们的生活带来的改变。

1考查动词。句意:早期计算机的目标是简化复杂的计算。此处表示“简化”应用动词simplify,且根据上文to可知,应用动词原形。故填simplify

2考查冠词。appearance为名词,此处表示特指“电脑的出现”应填定冠词。故填the

3考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知connect在句中做非谓语动词,与逻辑主语They构成被动关系,故用过去分词。故填connected

4考查名词复数。type为可数名词,由different修饰,应用复数形式。故填types

5考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知explore在句中作非谓语动词,且此处表目的应用不定式。故填to explore

6考查连接词。句意:不管怎样,电脑是如此的有用,它们确实带来了快乐。此处为so…that…引导结果状语从句,表示“如此……以至于……”。故填that

7考查副词。修饰动词attack,应用副词easily,表示“容易地”。故填easily

8考查动词时态。句意:这一现实已成为一个难以解决的问题。强调过去发生的动作对现在产生的影响,应用现在完成时,且主语为reality,助动词应用has。故填has become

9考查介词。根据短语in a way表示“在某种程度上”。故填in

10考查代词。修饰后文名词applications,应用形容词性物主代词their。故填their

当分词做状语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做状语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前,就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系,可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。

如第三小题,分析句子结构可知,connect在句中做非谓语动词,与逻辑主语They构成被动关系,故用过去分词。故填connected

【题目】 Bats are the only mammals that can fly a great distance, but they have another ability. Many bats live a very long time for an animal of their size. European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long. They hope to make discoveries aimed at fighting the aging process in human beings.

Last week, the group of scientists said they had identified important biological qualities in some bat species. The group studied the bats’ chromosomes (染色体), a line of genes found in the nucleus of cells. The scientists were most interested in structures connected to the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres (端粒), which protect the ends of chromosomes and shorten each time a cell divides. Scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down. They say this is what cause aging.

The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years. Of these animals, the greater mouse-eared bat generally lived the longest, an average of 37 years. The scientists said this and a related species, which are grouped together under the name Myotis, had telomeres that did not shorten with age. Another Myotis bat holds the record for the oldest age, reaching 41 years. The scientists’ findings suggest that these bats’ cells have the ability to maintain and repair their telomeres. This helps guard against the aging process.

Based on its body size, a bat like the greater mouse-eared bat would be expected to live four years. But, these mammals have been found to live nearly 10 times longer than that. The scientists found that only 19 species of mammals live longer than humans when their body size is considered. Eighteen of these are bats.

1Why are European researchers studying bats?

A.To learn the similar habits between bats and human beings.

B.To find out why the greater mouse-eared bats live a long life.

C.To try to understand why bats prefer to fly during the night.

D.To discover a good way to prevent human beings from aging.

2What does the second paragraph mainly explain to us?

A.The structures of the bats’ chromosomes.B.What causes aging biologically.

C.The functions of telomeres.D.What causes cells to break down.

3Why do the greater mouse-eared bat and another Myotis bat live so long?

A.They are grouped together under the name Myotis.

B.Their telomeres are decreasing with age.

C.Their cells are able to keep up and fix their telomeres.

D.They have more telomeres than human beings do.

4What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.Bats live 10 times longer than other mammals.

B.Bats enjoy the longest life among mammals.

C.The greater mouse-eared bat and other bats should have lived longer.

D.Many bats live longer than human beings considering their body size.

【题目】 Artificial intelligence (AD) technology may soon be a useful tool for doctors. It may help them better understand and treat diseases like breast cancer in ways that were never before possible.

Rishi Rawat, who teaches AI at the University of Southern California's (USC) Clinical Science Center in Los Angeles, is part of a team of scientists who are researching how AI and machine learning can more easily recognize cancerous growths in the breast.

Rawat provides information about cancer cells to a computer. He says this data helps the machine learn. “... You can put the data into them and they will learn the patterns and the pattern recognition that's important to making decisions"" David Agus, another USC researcher, believes that machines are not going to take the place of doctors, but they will help make certain decisions and look for things that the human brain can't recognize.

Once a confirmed cancerous growth is removed, doctors still have to treat the patient to reduce the risk of cancer returning. The form of treatment depends on the kind of cancer. Currently, researchers take a thin piece of tissue, put it on a small piece of glass and add color to better see the cells. The process could take days or even longer. Scientists say artificial intelligence can do something better than just count cells. Through machine learning, it can recognize complex patterns or structures, and learn how the cells are organized. They hope that machines will soon be able to make a quick identification of cancer that is free of human mistakes.

"All of a sudden, we have the computing power to really do it in real time...We couldn't have done this, but now it's all changed."" Agus adds that the process could be done for almost no cost in the developing world." He says that having a large amount of information about patients is important for a machine to effectively do its job in medicine.

The USC researchers are now only studying breast cancer. But doctors predict artificial intelligence will one day make a difference in all forms of cancer.

1What does the author intend to tell us?

A.AI technology will aid to predict some cancers.

B.Doctors will be replaced by AI machines.

C.AI technology will help cancer treatment.

D.Doctors will get improved with AI technology.

2What is vital for an AI machine to do its medical job according to USC researchers?

A.Cell counting machines.B.Well designed process.

C.Patterns of cancer.D.Enough information of patients.

3What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A.When is the best time to remove cancer.B.Why USC researchers argue about AI.

C.What treatment AI technology provides.D.How AI technology helps in medicine.

4What section of a magazine is the text probably taken from?

A.Entertainment & Arts.B.Science & Technology.

C.World News.D.Health Report.

【题目】 Frederick Phiri is the junk-art king of Zambia: at just 22, he started to earn an international reputation for being able to make complex and elegant sculptures from scrap (废弃的) metal found in his community.

Phiri’s father died when he was starting primary school. Then his mother abandoned him and he had to stay with his grandfather. His grandfather paid for his schooling through primary school but when he entered secondary school, he had to get various jobs to pay for his fees. Yet even in school, he was always drawing and making things in class.

After graduating, he did what he could to support himself by making animal sculptures from wires and sold them to tourists. His work was so popular that it caught the eye of Karen Beattie, director of Project Luangwa, a nonprofit organization dedicated to education and economic development in central Africa.

“I introduced him to a local welder (焊工),” Beattie told Newsweek.

In 2017, Phiri worked with welder Moses Mbewe during the rainy season, helping to make a complex set of doors for Project Luangwa. The piece sparked an idea in Beattie’s mind: “I handed him a bunch of scrap metal and said, ‘Make something with this.’ And he did. It was wonderful.”

Today, Phiri continues his art, using pieces of junk people bring him—keys, broken bike chains, old metal plugs and whatever scrap metal is lying around. He then turns the junk into abstract animals—elephants, cranes, giraffes, chameleons—and sells them at Project Luangwa headquarters. The community has recognized his talents.

“My dream is to earn enough to study art at the Evelyn Hone College in Lusaka and be able to make a living from it,” Phiri said “and then to make very large sculptures.”

1What is Phiri known for?

A.Serving his community.B.Collecting works of art.

C.Being the king of Zambia.D.Turning trash into treasure.

2What can we learn about Phiri from paragraph 2?

A.He had an unhappy childhood.B.He paid for his primary school.

C.He had to support his grandfather.D.He missed school to do part-time jobs.

3How does Phiri feel about his future?

A.Uncertain.B.Confident.

C.Depressed.D.Satisfied.

4What can be a suitable title for the passage?

A.A Successful Path of Art.B.The Junk-art King of Zambia.

C.A Young Man’s Wildest Dream.D.The Modern Junk Works of Art.
