Not only was Gene Stratton-Porter one of Indiana's most well-known authors, but she was also an environmentalist, photographer, and artist. Gene shared her passion for the environment and wildlife in her writing and used her influence to fight for the preservation of nature and alert others to the importance of their natural surroundings.
Born in 1863 in Indiana, she grew up with a love of nature and spent most of her innocent childhood wandering through farms and forests, catching butterflies and observing birds like doves and small animals like geese. In 1886, Gene married Charles Porter. Although she expressed happiness with her family life, Gene lived a more independent life traditionally unavailable to women in the late nineteenth century. Gene insisted on writing and photographing wildlife around her cabin near Limberlost Swamp. There she expressed her passionate feelings towards nature and its preservation. She spent much time in Limberlost, and later the cabin became the site where she conducted field studies on Indiana's natural environment.
Early in her life, Gene studied nature in the Limberlost Swamp and recorded her thorough observations through photographs and detailed writings. Gene published dozens of books—novels, nature studies, poetry collections and children's books. Her books mainly connect readers to natural settings and earn her a high reputation. One of her best-known novels, A Girl of the Limberlost is about a lonely girl who lives on a farm and escapes from her sufferings in Limberlost.
Gene's legacy (遗留物)is visible not only within her books, photography and films but also within the Limberlost Swamp, which eventually faded away to the farmland. Fortunately, through her hard work and dedication, the land is slowly being restored to its natural state, with over 400 acres preserved for nature study today.
4. Which of the following can best describe Gene
A. Considerate. B. Mysterious. C. Productive. D. Generous.
5. What can we learn about Gene in the 1880s
A. She conveyed her passion for natural conservation.
B. She was absorbed in her happy family life totally.
C. She spent an unforgettable childhood on the farm.
D. She moved to Limberlost to enjoy independence.
6. What made Gene obtain a wide recognition
A. Publishing many books of different types. B. Teaching herself to learn photography.
C. Taking various pictures of surroundings. D. Getting her readers more access to nature.
7. What is Limberlost Swamp like now
A. It centers on preserving the wildlife. B. It is turning into its original condition.
C. It offers cabins for scientific research. D. It has transferred to farmland forever.
C
Summer is coming, and soon beaches will be full of the sounds of people having fun: splashing (泼洒) in waves and playing in the sand. But imagine finding a quieter spot of ocean. If you could stick your ears under the water, you might hear other sounds. And many of those sounds are made by fish.
People have known that fish make sounds since ancient Greece; that is why they gave some fish names like red drum, pig fish or croaker. “They’re based on the sounds these fish make,” said Audrey Looby. She studies fish sounds at the University of Florida.
So far, about 1,000 fish species have been recorded making sounds. Looby’s favorite-sounding fish is the Gulf toadfish. It makes an amazing sound like a boat whistle. Scientists are not sure how many fish make sounds. Some think that it might be as many as 22,000 types, about two-thirds of the 34,000 fish species known. And those are just the sounds fish make on purpose.
Fish sounds are important because they give a lot of information about what is going on to other fish and to scientists. If scientists hear a fish chewing, then they know there is food available. The warning noises of certain fish species give information, too. They can tell scientists how many fish are living on a reef and where they are located. And fish sounds can tell where the endangered species are located, too, said Looby.
Fish sounds might even help preserve and bring back fish habitats. For example, scientists want to try playing healthy fish sounds in a reef that is dying. The healthy sounds might encourage fish to return and live in the dying reef. “Learning about fish sounds lets us learn about underwater environments and hopefully manage them at the same time,” Looby said.
8. Why are some fish names mentioned in paragraph 2
A. To make a prediction.
B. To think highly of ancient Greece.
C. To introduce a new research.
D. To present a rule about naming fishes.
9. What can be learnt about fish sounds
A. They are made by accident.
B. They sound like boat whistles.
C. They remain partly mysterious.
D. They are fully explored scientifically.
10. What might fish sounds help scientists with
A. Locating reefs. B. Recovering fish habitats.
C. Identifying species. D. Identifying the types of reefs.
11. What do the last two paragraphs mainly focus on
A. The significance of fish sounds.
B. The explanation of fish sounds.
C. The distribution of fish sounds.
D. The classification of fish sounds.
D
Scientists from the Faculty of Engineering, Information and Systems at the University of Tsukuba designed a text message mediation robot that can help users control their anger when receiving upsetting news. This device may help improve social interactions as we move towards a world with increasingly digital communications.
While a quick text message apology is a fast and easy way for friends to let us know they are going to be late for a planned meeting, it is often missing the human element that would accompany an explanation face-to-face, or even over the phone. It is likely to be more upsetting when we are not able to perceive the emotional weight behind our friends’ regret at making us wait.
Now, researchers at the University of Tsukuba have built a handheld robot called OMOY, which was equipped with a movable weight driven by mechanical components inside its body. By shifting the internal weight, the robot could express simulated emotions. The robot was used as a mediator for reading text messages. A text with unwelcome or frustrating news could be followed by a persuasion by OMOY. The robot tries to make the user not get upset, or even expresses sympathy for the user. “With the medium of written digital communication, the lack of social feedback redirects focus from the sender to the content of the message itself,” author Professor Fumihide Tanaka says.
The mediator robot was designed so that it can help suppress the user’s anger and other negative interpersonal motivations. The researchers tested 94 people with a message like “I’m sorry. I am late. The appointment slipped my mind. Can you wait another hour ” The team found that OMOY was able to reduce negative emotions. “The mediator robot can relay a frustrating message followed by giving its own opinion. When this speech is accompanied by the appropriate weight shifts, we saw that the user would sense the ‘intention’ of the robot to help them calm down,” Professor Tanaka says.
12. What influence may the message mediation robot have on society
A. It can improve social health. B. It can control a person’s emotion.
C. It can promote social communication. D. It can increase digital communications.
13. How can the robot express simulated emotions
A. By shifting its internal structure. B. By moving its inside weight.
C. By changing the colour of its body. D. By observing its user s expression.
14. What does the underlined word “suppress” mean in paragraph 4
A. Prevent. B. Enrich. C. Express. D. Conduct.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Ways To Improve Social Interactions B. Messages Upset Humans Reading Them
C. Robots Help Control Negative Emotions D. Science Involved In Robot Communication

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整短文。
It was just another busy day until I met the boy on the bus. He was not a passenger like me. He was, what we call a street child, an 8-10-year-old kid with a worn T-shirt. These poorly dressed kids were seen almost everywhere in Dhaka city. But what was special about that boy was his face. There was “something” in him that caught my attention. That was an angelic(天使般的)baby face with little care.
He got straight into the bus as it stopped at a traffic light. The bus helper shouted at him in the first place. But instead of talking back, the boy kept silent and started handing out a piece of paper to all the passengers. What was written in the paper was, in short, that his father died a couple of years ago. His mother worked at houses. He badly needed money to help his family, so he wished someone warm-hearted to buy chocolates from him.
This was nothing new to people who took a bus every day and I was no different. I had my earphones on, listening to some relaxing music to kill time. When he came to me to get the paper back, I casually gave him some money. Thankfully it brought some smiles on his face. He was about to give me ten chocolates in return for the money I gave to him when I stopped him.
“I don’t like chocolates brother. So there is no need of chocolates. You can have the money,” I said.
All of a sudden, the smile on his face disappeared.
“I’m not a beggar. Please take the chocolate, or take your money back.”
His straight answer greatly surprised me. I even felt he was slightly angry. I had given money to many kids before, without taking their chocolates. But this time something seemed different. I realized his angelic baby face was not the only thing special about him.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The boy put ten chocolates on my seat and got off the bus.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Having got the boy’s name, I decided to help him.

While a quick text message apology is a fast and easy way for friends to let us know they are going to be late for a planned meeting, it is often missing the human element that would accompany an explanation face-to-face, or even over the phone. It is likely to be more upsetting when we are not able to perceive the emotional weight behind our friends’ regret at making us wait.
Now, researchers at the University of Tsukuba have built a handheld robot called OMOY, which was equipped with a movable weight driven by mechanical components inside its body. By shifting the internal weight, the robot could express simulated emotions. The robot was used as a mediator for reading text messages. A text with unwelcome or frustrating news could be followed by a persuasion by OMOY. The robot tries to make the user not get upset, or even expresses sympathy for the user. “With the medium of written digital communication, the lack of social feedback redirects focus from the sender to the content of the message itself,” author Professor Fumihide Tanaka says.
The mediator robot was designed so that it can help suppress the user’s anger and other negative interpersonal motivations. The researchers tested 94 people with a message like “I’m sorry. I am late. The appointment slipped my mind. Can you wait another hour ” The team found that OMOY was able to reduce negative emotions. “The mediator robot can relay a frustrating message followed by giving its own opinion. When this speech is accompanied by the appropriate weight shifts, we saw that the user would sense the ‘intention’ of the robot to help them calm down,” Professor Tanaka says.
12. What influence may the message mediation robot have on society
A. It can improve social health. B. It can control a person’s emotion.
C. It can promote social communication. D. It can increase digital communications.
13. How can the robot express simulated emotions
A. By shifting its internal structure. B. By moving its inside weight.
C. By changing the colour of its body. D. By observing its user s expression.
14. What does the underlined word “suppress” mean in paragraph 4
A. Prevent. B. Enrich. C. Express. D. Conduct.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Ways To Improve Social Interactions B. Messages Upset Humans Reading Them
C. Robots Help Control Negative Emotions D. Science Involved In Robot Communication
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。筑波大学的科学家们设计了一款短信调解机器人OMOY,可以帮助用户在收到令人沮丧的消息时控制自己的愤怒情绪,这是一个有助于改善社交互动的设备。文章主语介绍了这种机器人的工作方式和工作原理。

47. 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。
It was just another busy day until I met the boy on the bus. He was not a passenger like me. He was, what we call a street child, an 8-10-year-old kid with a worn T-shirt. These poorly dressed kids were seen almost everywhere in Dhaka city. But what was special about that boy was his face. There was “something” in him that caught my attention. That was an angelic(天使般的)baby face with little care.
He got straight into the bus as it stopped at a traffic light. The bus helper shouted at him in the first place. But instead of talking back, the boy kept silent and started handing out a piece of paper to all the passengers. What was written in the paper was, in short, that his father died a couple of years ago. His mother worked at houses. He badly needed money to help his family, so he wished someone warm-hearted to buy chocolates from him.
This was nothing new to people who took a bus every day and I was no different. I had my earphones on, listening to some relaxing music to kill time. When he came to me to get the paper back, I casually gave him some money. Thankfully it brought some smiles on his face. He was about to give me ten chocolates in return for the money I gave to him when I stopped him.
“I don’t like chocolates, brother. So there is no need of chocolates. You can have the money,” I said.
All of a sudden, the smile on his face disappeared.
“I’m not a beggar. Please take the chocolate, or take your money back.”
His straight answer greatly surprised me. I even felt he was slightly angry. I had given money to many kids before, without taking their chocolates. But this time something seemed different. I realized his angelic baby face was not the only thing special about him.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The boy put ten chocolates on my seat and got off the bus.

Having got the boy’s name, I decided to help him.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 The boy put ten chocolates on my seat and got off the bus. Seeing his small figure disappear in the busy street, I felt at a loss. “I know the boy.” A voice flew through the frozen air and drew me back to life. Then a man told all of us that the boy was a top student in a primary school nearby, whose mother fell ill due to the heavy work. In order to raise some money for his mother, the boy had been selling chocolates for several weeks.
Having got the boy’s name, I decided to help him. I got off the bus at the next stop and took a taxi to his school. Upon arrival, I managed to find the headmaster and handed him $1000, asking him to secretly give the money to the boy who I met selling chocolates on the bus. The headmaster promised to make everything perfect and thanked me on behalf of the boy and his mother. Now, I knew I could go home without shame and regret.
