A
The oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.
First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny ballet (芭蕾) dancer.
“I’m an inside guy, ” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up. ”
On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale (呼气) has a tendency to form an invisible (隐形的)cloud around your head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.
Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat. “Your inner ear thinks you’re falling. Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying—that’s why some people feel sick. ” Within a couple of days—truly terrible days for some—astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.
Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronaut healthy. NASA is worried about two things: recovery time once astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.
1. What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space
A. Deciding on a proper sleep position.
B. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag.
C. Seeking a way to fall asleep quickly.
D. Finding a right time to go to sleep.
2. The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when they_________.
A. circle around on their bikes
B. use microcomputers without a stop
C. exercise in one place for a long time
D. watch a movie while pedaling
3. Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because_________.
A. their senses stop working
B. they have to stand up straight
C. they float out of their seats unexpectedly
D. their brains receive contradictory messages
4. One of NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is_________.
A. how much exercise they do on the station
B. how they can remain healthy for long in space
C. whether they can recover after returning home
D. whether they are able to go back to the station
B

Preparing Cities for Robot Cars
The possibility of self-driving robot cars has often seemed like a futurist’s dream, years away from materializing in the real world. Well, the future is apparently now. The California Department of Motor Vehicles began giving permits in April for companies to test truly self-driving cars on public roads. The state also cleared the way for companies to sell or rent out self-driving cars, and for companies to operate driverless taxi services. California, it should be noted, isn’t leading the way panies have been testing their vehicles in cities across the country. It’s hard to predict when driverless cars will be everywhere on our roads. But however long it takes, the technology has the potential to change our transportation systems and our cities, for better or for worse, depending on how the transformation is regulated.
While much of the debate so far has been focused on the safety of driverless cars (and rightfully so), policymakers also should be talking about how self-driving vehicles can help reduce traffic jams, cut emissions (排放) and offer more convenient, affordable mobility options. The arrival of driverless vehicles is a chance to make sure that those vehicles are environmentally friendly and more shared.
Do we want to copy—or even worsen—the traffic of today with driverless cars Imagine a future where most adults own individual self-driving vehicles. They tolerate long, slow journeys to and from work on packed highways because they can work, entertain themselves or sleep on the ride, which encourages urban spread. They take their driverless car to an appointment and set the empty vehicle to circle the building to avoid paying for parking. Instead of walking a few blocks to pick up a child or the dry cleaning, they send the self-driving minibus. The convenience even leads fewer people to take public transport—an unwelcome side effect researchers have already found in ride-hailing (叫车) services.
A study from the University of California at Davis suggested that replacing petrol-powered private cars worldwide with electric, self-driving and shared systems could reduce carbon emissions from transportation 80% and cut the cost of transportation infrastructure (基础设施) and operations 40% by 2050. Fewer emissions and cheaper travel sound pretty appealing. The first commercially available driverless cars will almost certainly be fielded by ride-hailing services, considering the cost of self-driving technology as well as liability and maintenance issues (责任与维护问题). But driverless car ownership could increase as the prices drop and more people become comfortable with the technology.
Policymakers should start thinking now about how to make sure the appearance of driverless vehicles doesn’t extend the worst aspects of the car-controlled transportation system we have today. The coming technological advancement presents a chance for cities and states to develop transportation systems designed to move more people, and more affordably. The car of the future is coming. We just have to plan for it.
5. According to the author, attention should be paid to how driverless cars can_______
A. help deal with transportation-related problems
B. provide better services to customers
C. cause damage to our environment
D. make some people lose jobs
6. As for driverless cars, what is the author’s major concern
A. Safety.
B. Side effects.
C. Affordability.
D. Management.
7. What does the underlined word “fielded” in Paragraph 4probably mean
A. Employed.
B. Replaced.
C. Shared.
D. Reduced.
8. What is the author’s attitude to the future of self-drivingcars
A. Doubtful.
B. Positive.
C. Disapproving.
D. Sympathetic.
C
I love my mobile phone—it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know there are times when I need to move away from these things and truly communicate with others.
I teach a course called History Matters in college. My goals for the class include a deep discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to fully study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule—no laptops, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of my class, some of them were not happy.
Most students think my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.
The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions (中断)by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and to make connections among the course, the material and the class discussion.
I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.
9. Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with______.
A. the course material
B. others’ misuse of technology
C. discussion topics
D. the author’s class rule
10. According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may _______.
A. keep students from doing independent thinking
B. encourage students to have in-depth conversations
C. help students to better understand complex topics
D. affect students’ concentration on course evaluation
11. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author ________.
A. is quite stubborn
B. will give up teaching history
C. will change his teaching plan soon
D. values technology-free dialogues in his class
D
(2019·全国Ⅰ卷)As data and identity theft becomes more and more common, the market is growing for biometric (生物测量) technologies—like fingerprint scans—to keep others out of private e-spaces. At present, these technologies are still expensive, though.
Researchers from Georgia Tech say that they have come up with a low-cost device (装置)that gets around this problem: a smart keyboard. This smart keyboard precisely measures the cadence (节奏)with which one types and the pressure fingers apply to each key. The keyboard could offer a strong layer of security by analyzing things like the force of a user’s typing and the time between key presses. These patterns are unique to each person. Thus, the keyboard can determine people’s identities, and by extension, whether they should be given access to the computer it’s connected to—regardless of whether someone gets the password right.
It also doesn’t require a new type of technology that people aren’t already familiar with. Everybody uses a keyboard and everybody types differently.
In a study describing the technology, the researchers had 100 volunteers type the word “touch” four times using the smart keyboard. Data collected from the device could be used to recognize different participants based on how they typed, with very low error rates. The researchers say that the keyboard should be pretty straightforward to commercialize and is mostly made of inexpensive, plastic-like parts. The team hopes to make it to market in the near future.
12. Why do the researchers develop the smart keyboard
A. To reduce pressure on keys.
B. To improve accuracy in typing.
C. To replace the password system.
D. To cut the cost of e-space protection.
13. What makes the invention of the smart keyboard possible
A. Computers are much easier to operate.
B. Fingerprint scanning techniques develop fast.
C. Typing patterns vary from person to person.
D. Data security measures are guaranteed.
14. What do the researchers expect of the smart keyboard
A. It’ll be environment-friendly.
B. It’ll reach consumers soon.
C. It’ll be made of plastics.
D. It’ll help speed up typing.
15. Where is this text most likely from
A. A diary. B. A guidebook.
C. A novel. D. A magazine.

(2020·广东普通高中学业质量联合测评) It’s a funny and true experience. Now when Mike thinks of it, he laughs a lot, but when it happened, Mike was really frightened. He is going to tell it to you. Once when Mike was a child, maybe eight years old, he had a frightening experience. Mike thinks about it frequently. He was in his house with all his family. Mike cannot remember when it happened very well, but it was possibly at Christmas. They were going to have a big supper and Mike was very happy because he liked to eat a lot. Besides, Mike hadn’t eaten for a long time. Therefore, he was starving. He became very angry, because Mike saw his mother and his aunt talking for a long time. This made him angry, because Mike didn’t want to wait any longer. Moreover, it was time for having supper. Weren’t they starving
“Mother, what happened with the food ” Mike asked. Then she looked at him seriously and said, “You need more patience, my honey. ”
“Yes, ” Mike replied, “I see. I need to be patient. Nevertheless, I can’t be patient today, because I am starving. ”
Time passed, and finally dinner was on the table. The first dish was “puchero”. Puchero is one of his favorite dishes; this dish has chicken, rice, vegetables, and pork. Also, it’s a very hot dish, so usually you need to wait at least half an hour before you start to eat. You can enjoy its taste better when it’s not so hot. Nevertheless, when Mike saw it on the table, he got a spoon and started to eat quickly. In a moment, his face was red, and there was a strange feeling on his tongue. Mike had burned it. Immediately, Mike shouted in pain and his mother asked him, “What is the matter ”
“Mother, help me! I think my tongue is going to fall off! Send me to see the doctor, ” Mike screamed crazily.
“Do not worry, my child. Your father is going to take you to the hospital, ” said his mother.

答案:
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。在太空中的生活有多神秘?这可能是你想象不到的。本文从不同角度介绍了在太空中生活时宇航员要面对的各种挑战。
1. A细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Its position presents its own challenges. ”可知,在太空中睡觉时,首先要面对的就是睡觉姿势的问题,这与A项中的 position吻合。其他三个选项表述片面,不能概括 position一词,所以选择A项。
2. C推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. . . You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache. ”可知,如果在一个地方待的时间太长,没有了重力帮助空气流通,呼出的二氧化碳就有可能在你的头附近形成隐形的云朵,你就会得氧化碳头疼症”,这与C项的表述吻合。A、B、D三项描述的都不是长时间在一个地方的活动,所以不会产生“二氧化碳头疼症”。
3. D推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Your inner ear thinks you’re falling. Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying-that’s why some people feel sick”可知,在太空中,你的内耳认为你要倒下,而眼睛却告诉
你你在直立,也就是内耳和眼睛输出的信息是矛盾的,所以有些人会感到恶心,故选择D项。在太空中宇航员的感官不会停止工作,所以A项错误;B项是对文意的错误理解;C项表述的情况在太空中可能会发生,但是这种情况不会使宇航员感到恶心(feel sick),所以与题干不符,故排除。
4. B推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“NASA is worried about two things. ,可知,NASA担心的是宇航员回家之后需要的恢复时间和怎样在两年半或更长时间的绕火星的旅行中保持体力和健康,这与B项中的 remain healthy for long in space相吻合,由此可知应该选择B项。A、D两项在原文中并没有提及,C项是对原文的错误理解。
[语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕无人驾驶汽车这项前沿科技,对以下方面进行了讨论:对无人驾驶汽车最大的担忧,对无人驾驶汽车未来发展的态度以及可能会出现的管理问题。
5. A细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“While much of the debate so far has been focused on the safety…policymakers also should be talking about how self-driving vehicles can help reduce traffic jams, cut emissions and offer more convenient,affordable mobility options. ”可知,人们对无人驾驶汽车的关注点在其安全性以及有助于减少交通拥堵等方面。选项A“有助于解决与交通有关的问题”与此意思吻合。选项B“为消费者提供更好的服务”说法太笼统;选项C与第二段第一句中的cut emissions矛盾;选项D在文中没有提及。
6. D推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Policymakers should start thinking now about how to make sure the appearance of driverless vehicles doesn’t extend the worst aspects of the car-controlled transportation system we have today. ”并结合上文内容可知,作者希望政策的制定者要考虑这些无人驾驶车辆的管理,不要扩大现有汽车管理运输系统中的最糟糕的方面,与选项D提到的“(车辆)管理”吻合,显然这是作者比较关心的。选项A是人们辩论的事情;选项B概括过于广泛;选项C是无人驾驶汽车的好处。
7. A词义猜测题。根据第四段中画线词所在句的前半部分内容the first commercially available driverless cars will almost certainly可知,结合下句中的 as the prices drop and more people become comfortable with the technology可知,随着价格降低以及人们对这项技术开始应用自如,第一批上市的无人驾驶汽车会被用到“叫车服务”中。选项A“使用”符合题意。
8. B推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句“The car of the future is coming. We just have to plan for it”可知,无人驾驶汽车的时代就要来到,我们要准备好迎接它的到来。由此推断作者对于这种新科技持积极乐观的态度。选项A“怀疑的”,选项C“反对的”,选项D“同情的”,都不符合。
[语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文。手机能把作者和这个世界联系起来,电脑上保存着作者的文章和想法,作者对手机和电脑深爱不已,但是作为大学老师的他却反对学生在课堂上使用手机查阅资料。快来读一读文章,看看作者反对的原因吧。
9. D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“…I have a rule no laptops,iPads,phones,etc. When students were told my rule in advance of my class,some of them were not happy. "可知,作者规定学生在课堂上不能使用电脑、手机等,当学生被告知这个规定时部分学生不开心,即部分学生对班规有不满的情绪,故选D项。
10. A细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. "可知,使用科技产品让学生不能专注,同时也让学生过于依赖从外部信息来获得想法,故选A项。B项是不使用科技产品可以达到的结果;文中说,不使用科技产品学生可以探索复杂的想法,但是有了科技产品,大家的专注就会被打断,故C项不符合题意;D项意为“影响学生对课程评价的专注”,文中未提及课程评价,故此项也不符合要求。
11. D推理判断题。通过最后一段中的“…I’m sticking to my plan A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up. ”可知,作者很享受大家一起远离科技产品的对话,不会放弃现在的班规,这个表述和D项吻合。此题容易错选A项,stubborn固执的,暗含“即使别人提的建议正确,也不会听取”的意思,和最后一段第一句不符。
[语篇解读]本文是一篇科研报道。来自佐治亚理工学院的研究人员发明了一种智能键盘,可以通过分析用户的打字模式来判断该用户是不是安全访客。
12. D推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“Researchers from Georgia Tech say that they have come up with a low-cost device that gets around this problem:a smart keyboard. "以及第一段最后一句At present,these technologies are still expensive,though”可推知,研究者研发这种智能键盘是为了降低网络安全保护技术的成本。注意题干、正确选项以及原文中一些词汇的多次呼应现象:develop与 come up with是同义词,expensive与low-cost是反义词,cut the cost与low-cost相呼应。
13. C推理判断题。题干问的是“是什么让智能键盘的发明成为可能”,也就是问这一发明的核心依据是什么。根据第二段中“These patterns are unique to each person. Thus, the keyboard can determine people’s identities. ”可知,正是因为每个人的打字模式不同,所以这种智能键盘可以通过分析用户的打字力度及节奏等来判断该用户是不是安全访客,故C项符合题意。解答该题的关键是看懂题干的意思,即智能键盘的核心依据是什么。
14. B细节理解题。根据题干“研究者对于智能键盘有什么期望”可直接定位到最后一段的最后一句话“The team hopes to make it to market in the near future. ”,该团队希望在不久的将来将智能键盘推向市场,故选B项。题干中的 expect与原文中的hope呼应,答案选项中的 consumers与原文中的 market呼应。
15. D文章出处题。根据本文的话题“智能键盘”以及第二段中的Researchers from Georgia Tech say that they have come up with allow-cost device…”尤其是其中的关键词 researchers,low cost device等来推断,这篇文章是一篇科研报道,最有可能出现在杂志上。
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文,介绍了在选修网络课程时如何与授课老师建立健康有益的互动交流。这篇文章视角独特,倡导积极和谐的人际关系和人文情怀。
16. E关联逻辑法解题。空格前说,在网络课堂上,与授课老师建立健康的沟通模式是非常重要的,空格后说,虽然“我”每个只列出了两条,但显然还有许多其他情况可能发生。下面的段落紧接着介绍了沟通的注意事项——两“做”和两“不做”,因此E项“下面是在线学习者应该做和不应该做的一些常见事情符合语境。本设空类型属于细节理解类。
17. G设题位置法解题。空格后说,与主题内容相关的问题通常会受欢迎。在询问有关课程设计的问题之前,阅读教学大纲和学习管理系统信息,以确保答案不会隐藏在眼皮底下。由此可推知,此段表达要提出好的有水平的问题,故选G项“问问题,但要确保这些问题是好的、深思熟虑的问题”。本设空类型属于段落主题句类。
18. A关联逻辑法解题。空格前说,参加论坛、博客和其他开放式论坛来进行对话,空格后为参加论坛等的一些注意事项,A项“那就是它们的作用”符合语境。本设空类型属于细节理解类。
19. C关联逻辑法解题。空格前交代,如果你需要延长最后期限只需向授课老师解释一下情况,故选C项“如果需要更多的信息,他们会询问”。本设空类型属于细节理解类。
20. F关联逻辑法解题。空格前说,不要公开表达对授课老师或课程的不满,空格后提及,如果授课老师的专业水平或能力确实令人担忧,一定要使用在线课程评价来冷静地发表你的意见,因此F项“每个人都曾经有过不太好的上课经历”符合语境。本设空类型属于细节理解类。
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。你能想象出没有电话的生活吗?电话给我们带来了怎样的影响呢?让我们一起读这篇文章来了解一下吧!
21. A break out爆发;take out拿出;set out出发;put out扑灭。此处指火灾的突然发生,故选A项。
22. D由下文的 you could not call a doctor可知此处应选择与call a doctor相关的选项。在四个选项中与 call a doctor关系最密切的是sick(生病的)。unfair不公平的;angry生气的;unhappy不快乐的。
23. A不管是 family life(家庭生活)还是 school life(学校生活)都属于我们的 daily life(日常生活),而 natural life表示“自然生活”。
24. B句意:我们大多是通过与别人谈话和倾听别人必须和我们说的话的方式进行交流的……only意为“只”;mostly意为“大部分,大多数”;quickly意为“迅速地”;well意为“好”。
25. C由 we can do this very easily可知此处指“当我们离他们近的时候”。be close to是固定搭配,意为“离…近”。
26. A however然而,表转折,而且常用逗号与句子的其他部分隔开。of course当然;therefore因此;for example例如。
27. B句意:然而,即使当我们大声喊叫(shout)的时候,我们的声音也不能传很远……在四个选项中,cry意为“哭喊”;shout意为“大声喊叫”;call表示一般的“喊叫”;laugh意为“笑”。故shout符合句意。
28. D experiment实验;Improvement改善;discovery发现,指发现原来世界上有而不为人所知的东西;Invention发明,指发明创造出一个新东西。故选D项。
29. D句意:正是由于电话的发明,当我们相隔很远时仍然能互相交流、谈话。因此选择still(仍然)。not不;already已经;还。
30. a hear“听见”,强调结果;see“看见”,强调结果;listen to指“听的动作而不指“听”的结果;look at指“看”的动作。此处指听”的结果,表示“我们能听清彼此的谈话”,故选A项。
31. B上文提到通过电话我们能够听清彼此的谈话,本句表示“使这成为可能的人是亚历山大·格拉汉姆·贝尔此处 possible为最佳答案。clean干净的,necessary必要的,important重要的,均与句意不符。
32. A spend time doing sth. 是固定结构。此处表示“贝尔把自己所有的空闲时间都用来做实验”。主句缺少谓语,故选A项。
33. B由本句后面的that. 可想到so…that或such…that结构,再由空后的形容词 enthusiastic可知应选择so。“so+adj. /adv. ”放在句首时,主句要用部分倒装。

Dear Chris,
I’m really worried about your present situation where you’ve been addicted to webcast in summer holidays and always spend a lot of time watching various programs. My opinions are as follows.
Undeniably,webcast is quite popular among young people,for it makes leisure time colorful. However,there exist some potential risks if we have excessive viewing of it. Initially, it may cause short-sightedness Besides,excessive viewing takes up too much time and energy which should be put into study.
Thus, never should we be an addict to webcast. It’s wiser to set aside some time to accompany parents or do something more meaningful.
Best wishes!
Yours truly,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
Then his father and Mike went to the hospital. When they arrived there,Mike tried to tell the doctor his problem,but Mike could not do it because he was very nervous. His father did it for him. Mike does not remember his father’s words exactly,but he said something like “Doctor,I think my son burned his tongue,because he ate a pretty hot dish. ” “Open your mouth,” the doctor said after he’d heard his father’s words.
Mike did it slowly. He looked at his tongue for a long time. Do not worry,little guy. Your tongue is very hot,but it will not fall off,the doctor finally said. When the doctor said that,his father started laughing happily. Soon the doctor was also laughing. He was embarrassed However,Mike was happy because his tongue would not fall off. Mike has learned one important thing since that day. Patience is a great virtue Mike thinks this is the funniest experience that he has had in his life.
