A
Valerie L. Thomas is an African American scientist and inventor best known for her patented (专利的) illusion transmitter (幻觉发射器) and contributions to NASA research.
Thomas was born in 1943 in Maryland. She was interested in science as a child. At the age of eight, her curiosity about how things worked inspired her to borrow a book called The Boy’s First Book of Radio and Electronics, which she took home hoping her father would help her take on some projects in it. However, he didn’t help her.
She attended an all-girls high school that did not help her with hands on projects either. But this changed in college, when Thomas was admitted to Morgan State University as one of the only two women in her class to major in physics. Thomas excelled in her studies. She graduated with excellent results and accepted a position as a data analyst at NASA.
In the 1970s, she managed the development of the image-processing systems for Landsat, the first satellite (人造卫星) to send images to the Earth from space. In 1980, Thomas received a patent for an illusion transmitter. The device produces optical illusion images by means of two concave mirrors (凹面镜). Unlike flat mirrors, which produce images that appear to be inside, or behind the mirror, concave mirrors create images that appear to be real, or in front of the mirror itself. This technology was later used by NASA and has since been adapted for use in surgery (外科手术) as well as the production of television and video screens.
Thomas continued to work for NASA until her retirement in 1995. Over the course of her career, Thomas contributed widely to the study of space. She helped develop computer program designs that supported research on Halley’s Comet, the ozone layer, and satellite technology. For her achievements, Thomas received a number of NASA awards including the Goddard Space Flight Center Award of Merit and the NASA Equal Opportunity Medal.
1. What do we know about Thomas’ early life?
A. She was talented in science.
B. She liked working with her father.
C. She lacked support for her interest.
D. She preferred to read boys’ books.
2. What does the underlined phrase “excelled in” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Did well in. B. Had confidence in.
C. Was curious about. D. Was concerned with.
3. What is the advantage of Thomas’ invention over flat mirrors?
A. It takes pictures more clearly.
B. It transmits images more quickly.
C. It changes the position of the image.
D. It can send images to the Earth from space.
4. What does the last paragraph focus on?
A. Thomas’ future plans. B. Thomas’ retirement life.
C. Thomas’ research theory. D. Thomas’ lifetime achievements.
【答案】1. C 2. A 3. C 4. D

A study of almost 2,700 children aged between seven and ten in 38 schools in Barceiona, Spain, first researches the impact of traffic noise on child cognitive (认知的) development over time.
The children in the study are in a critical stage for the development of memory and attention skill, which are essential to learning. The research found that children exposed to about three times more traffic in the street than other children had memory development that was 23% slower and attention ability development 5% slower over a year.
Noise is the second most damaging environmental factor to health, after air pollution, and, for example, was already known to increase heart attacks in adults. The UN said that urban noise pollution was growing into a global public health threat, leading to 12,000 early deaths a year in the EU alone and affecting many cities.
But research on the impact of road noise on children was limited until now. “We do not know that noise can actually be toxic (有害的) from a physical point of view,” said Dr. Maria Foraster, from the Barcelona Institute for Global Health, who led the study. “We think that we adapt to it, but research has shown that we don’t completely—we still have a physiological (生理的) response.
The research revealed that peaks of noise heard inside the classroom, such as the passing of loud trucks, had more impact than a higher average level of noise. It also found higher noise levels at school were more damaging than at home.
Prof. Iroise Dumontheil, at Birkbeck, University of London, UK, said, “This carefully designed study provides convincing evidence. Considering that many European children living in large cities are exposed to high road-traffic noise levels, this study has implications for public policy to reduce road-traffic noise near schools.”
The research follows previous work that showed higher levels of aircraft noise at school affected reading comprehension and cognitive development. Next, the authors said, they would like to see their findings replicated (复制) in different cities and towns, where schools may be
built differently and windows opened more or less often.
5. What can we learn from Maria Foraster’s words?
A. We are troubled by nose.
B We lack confidence in her study.
C. We try hard to adapt to noise.
D. We aren’t fully aware of the harm of noise to humans.
6. What is Iroise Dumontheil’s attitude towards the study?
A. Curious. B. Favorable.
C. Cautious D. Unsatisfied.
7. What might the research team focus on next?
A. Finding solutions to reducing noise.
B. Helping students to realize the impact of noise.
C. Confirming their findings in different areas.
D. Studying the differences between various noises.
8. What is the best title for the text?
A. Policies on traffic noise should be improved
B. Traffic noise slows children’s memory development
C. Traffic noise has a growing impact on people’s health
D. Attention should be paid to the environment around schools
【答案】5. D 6. B 7. C 8. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Barceiona对38所学校的2700名7至10岁儿童进行了研究，首次研究了交通噪音对儿童认知发展的影响。研究发现，与其他孩子相比，在大街上接触的交通量大约是其他孩子的三倍，这些孩子的记忆力发展比其他孩子慢23%，注意力发展比其他孩子慢5%。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中““We do not know that noise can actually be toxic (有害的) from a physical point of view,” said Dr. Maria Foraster( Maria Foraster 博士说:“从物理角度来看，我们并不知道噪音实际上是有毒的。”)”可知，从Maria Foraster的话中我们可以知道的是我们还没有完全意识到噪音对人类的危害。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Prof. Iroise Dumontheil, at Birkbeck, University of London, UK, said, “This carefully designed study provides convincing evidence. Considering that many European children living in large cities are exposed to high road-traffic noise levels, this study has implications for public policy to reduce road-traffic noise near schools.”(英国伦敦大学Birkbeck分校的Iroise Dumontheil教授说:“这项精心设计的研究提供了令人信服的证据。考虑到许多生活在大城市中的欧洲儿童暴露在高道路交通噪音水平下，这项研究对于减少学校附近道路交通噪音的公共政策具有启示意义。”)”可推知，Iroise Dumontheil对这项研究的态度是赞成的，故选B。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Next, the authors said, they would like to see their findings replicated (复制) in different cities and towns, where schools may bebuilt differently and windows opened more or less often.(接下来，作者说，他们希望看到他们的发现在不同的城市和城镇得到复制，在这些地方，学校的建筑可能会有所不同，窗户或多或少会打开。)”可知，研究小组下一步可能在不同地区确认他们的发现。故选C。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A study of almost 2,700 children aged between seven and ten in 38 schools in Barceiona, Spain, first researches the impact of traffic noise on child cognitive (认知的) development over time.(Barceiona对38所学校的2700名7至10岁儿童进行了研究，首次研究了交通噪音对儿童认知发展的影响。)”和第二段中“The research found that children exposed to about three times more traffic in the street than other children had memory development that was 23% slower and attention ability development 5% slower over a year.(研究发现，与其他孩子相比，在大街上接触的交通量大约是其他孩子的三倍，这些孩子的记忆力发展比其他孩子慢23% ，注意力发展比其他孩子慢5% 。)”可知，文章主要介绍了Barceiona对38所学校的2700名7至10岁儿童进行了研究，首次研究了交通噪音对儿童认知发展的影响。研究发现，与其他孩子相比，在大街上接触的交通量大约是其他孩子的三倍，这些孩子的记忆力发展比其他孩子慢23%，注意力发展比其他孩子慢5%。由此可知，B项“交通噪音减缓儿童记忆力的发展”适合做文章标题，故选B。
C
I’ve been giving lots of thought recently to the teaching of the science subject at schools. I’m wondering whether spending more time learning how we “do” science--the scientific method--is more valuable than simply making children memorize scientific “facts”.
After all, science isn’t a collection of facts about the world. That’s just called “knowledge”. Rather, science is a process of thinking and making sense of the world, which will then lead to new knowledge. We’ve often heard it said that we should be teaching children not what to think but how to think. However, schools now spend so much of the science subject loading up children’s brains with “knowledge”.
Surely, everyone needs a basic scientific understanding. We all need to know some science: facts about the world to help us make informed decisions about important issues that face us all in our everyday lives, from the risks of smoking to the benefits of exercising or why recycling our waste is good for the planet.
Yet what seems to be missing today is an understanding of the way we gain this scientific understanding of the world. Nowadays, social media has played a significant role in spreading information. However, many people use it as a medium for spreading disinformation or harmful opinions. But social media has only enlarged the societal problem that has been with us.
On top of this, our attention spans (时长) are naturally getting shorter, and we don’t take the time to question our views, or ask whether the information we are getting is reliable. This is where thinking scientifically can help. Adopting some of the ways that good science is practiced can help us to critically assess what we believe, question our own views before we attack views we don’t like, and so on. This is exactly why we should be teaching more of scientific methods in schools. This remarkable way of seeing, thinking and knowing, is one of humankind’s great riches and the birthright of everyone. And, most wonderfully, it only grows in quality and value the more widely it is shared.
9. What is the author concerned about according to Paragraph 1?
A. Students’ disinterest in the science subject.
B. The teaching content of the science subject.
C. The teaching topics of the science subject.
D. The lack of emphasis on science in schools.
10. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The application of science in daily lives.
B. The approach to knowing scientific facts.
C. Some scientific phenomena in daily lives.
D. The understanding of science in daily lives.
11. What does the underlined part “the societal problem” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A The popularity of social media.
B. The spread of false information.
C. The misunderstanding of science.
D. The negative impact of social media.
12. What can students get from learning scientific methods?
A. Growing interest in science.
B. Improved attention in class.
C. The ability to think critically.
D. The deeper understanding of science.
【答案】9. B 10. D 11. B 12. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要论述的是我们应该教学生科学方法而不是简单地灌输科学知识。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“I’m wondering whether spending more time learning how we “do” science--the scientific method--is more valuable than simply making children memorize scientific “facts”.(我在想，花更多的时间学习我们如何“做”科学——科学方法——是否比简单地让孩子们记住科学“事实”更有价值。)”可知，作者关心的是科学学科的教学内容。故选B。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段的“Surely, everyone needs a basic scientific understanding. We all need to know some science: facts about the world to help us make informed decisions about important issues that face us all in our everyday lives, from the risks of smoking to the benefits of exercising or why recycling our waste is good for the planet.(当然，每个人都需要一个基本的科学认识。我们都需要了解一些关于世界的科学事实，以帮助我们对日常生活中所有人面临的重要问题做出明智的决定，从吸烟的风险到锻炼的好处，或者为什么回收废物对地球有益。)”可知，第三段的主要内容是日常生活中对科学的理解。故选D。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段的“Nowadays, social media has played a significant role in spreading information. However, many people use it as a medium for spreading disinformation or harmful opinions.(如今，社交媒体在传播信息方面发挥了重要作用。然而，许多人把它作为传播虚假信息或有害意见的媒介。)”可知，the societal problem指的是虚假信息的传播，故选B。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“This is where thinking scientifically can help. Adopting some of the ways that good science is practiced can help us to critically assess what we believe, question our own views before we attack views we don’t like, and so on.(这就是科学思考可以提供帮助的地方。采用一些好的科学实践方法可以帮助我们批判性地评估我们所相信的，在我们攻击我们不喜欢的观点之前质疑我们自己的观点，等等。)”可知，学生能从学习科学方法中得到批判性思考的能力。故选C。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了提升自我价值的一些方法。
【13题详解】
上文“Self-worth is defined as the level of importance you place on yourself. (自我价值被定义为你对自己的重视程度。)”提到了自我价值的含义，下文“Everything we think about, all the emotions we feel, and even the way we act is a product of self-worth.(我们所想的一切，所感受的一切，甚至我们的行为方式都是自我价值的产物。)”提到自我价值的重要性，由此可知，空处应该也是围绕自我价值来谈，G项“它是人类的重要组成部分，控制着我们如何看待自己。”也介绍了自我价值的重要性，故选G。
【14题详解】
上文“What can you offer?(你能提供什么？)”提出你能提供什么这一问题，下文“ List all of these.(把这些都列出来。)”指出要将你能提供的列出来，是对空前问题的回答，由此可推知，空处应该也是在提出问题，而且和空前问题相似，围绕你能提供的东西来提问，D项“你毫不费力地做的那些很酷的事情是什么？”符合，是对上文问题的具体化，故选D。
【15题详解】
根据本段小标题“Pardon yourself. (原谅你自己)”可知，本段主要围绕原谅自己来说，E项“你必须原谅自己的缺点。”契合本段主题，具体指出要原谅自己的缺点，故选E。
【16题详解】
上文“The only reason you haven’t done something great for yourself is that you are still wondering whether you should do it.(你没有为自己做一些伟大的事情的唯一原因是你仍然在想你是否应该这样做。)”指出你没有为自己做一些伟大的事情的唯一原因是你在想你是否应该这样做，这说明你在怀疑自己的能力，由此可知，空处在断尾，是总结性语言，告诉我们要如何做，B项“别再怀疑你的能力了，放手做吧。”符合，故选B。
【17题详解】
此处是本段小标题。根据下文“Surround yourself with the change you wane. Be with people who have overcome the doubts they had about themselves and, like you, are also on a journey to recognizing self-worth.(用你想要的改变包围你自己。和那些已经克服了自我怀疑的人在一起，像你一样，也在认识自我价值的旅程中。)”可知，本段主要告诉我们要和那些克服了自我怀疑的人在一起，即健全的人，C项“让你周围都是健全的人。”适合做本段标题，故选C。

As the smog frequently hits our city, the importance of protecting environment can never be ignored. Now I appeal to you to start from now.
The first thing we can do is to reduce waste as possible as we can. Buying things more than we can use is not a good habit. Besides, it is necessary to turn off the light when we leave the classroom. Finally, it would be better if we walk or ride to school, which not only reduce the traffic pressure but also reduce the harmful gases.

59. 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。
One experience stays fresh in my memory all the time. It was my summer vacation of fifty years ago. And I was spending my summer vacation at the house of my cousin, Jim, who lived in a village. Beside the village, there was a forest. My other cousins also came with me to spend their summer vacation.
It was a dark and a little bit cool evening. One of my cousins suggested we go outside to watch the stars; we all nodded excitedly. Then, we told our wish to Jim’s parents, who agreed but warned us to return home before 9 p.m. And they gave Jim a watch, telling him to pay attention to the time. It was just 7:30 p.m.
Wishing to have a fun journey outdoors, we happily set off, and started from the fields, each with a flashlight in hand. At first we just wanted to go around and appreciate the beautiful sky decorated with many stars. But later we decided to go further. All we thought about was walking and talking. We ignored the most important thing--a big forest was beyond the village.
It was unfortunate that we went into the forest and got lost. When we found we were lost, it was too late to find the original way back to the village. We were all scared. There were terrible wolves and wild pigs hanging around in the forest at night. What if we came across one? How much we hoped we could meet a hunter who could lead us home!
I took hold of Jim’s hand firmly (牢固地). The strong wind blew against my face all the time. It whispered through the trees. What was worse, the fog arose and quickly became thick. It made us lose the sense of direction totally. We stopped walking, not knowing which way to go next. Terrible fear came to my mind and made my body shake out of control.
But we didn’t want to just stay there and wait for death. We decided to make our way out of the forest.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph l
Then we started walking again.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2
Just when the wolf was about to attack us, a hunter appeared before us.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Then, we started walking again. Not speaking a single word, we silently and quietly moved towards the unknown world. With each holding a big stick, we opened our eyes wide, observing whether there were terrible animals around. And every few minutes, we looked around at each other just to ensure none fell behind. Suddenly, I heard something moving in the bushes nearby. I was extremely nervous and my legs were shaking. Soon a wolf jumped out from the bushes, staring at us greedily.
Just when the wolf was about to attack us, a hunter appeared before us. He quickly took out his can of bear spray and fired the spray at the wolf. The wolf was scared and immediately escaped. We were saved, and breathed a big sigh of relief. We expressed thanks to the hunter who then began leading us home. Before long, we saw a lot of light from flashlights. It was the villagers, who came to look for us. We learned a big lesson that night.
