Michael J. Fox became famous all over the world after starring as Marty McFly in Back to the Future in 1985. Six years later, aged 29, he developed Parkinson's disease. Since then, Fox—who is now 60 years old—has helped raise over $1.5 billion to help find a cure for the progressive nervous system disorder.
As a non-profit organization that provides money for Parkinson's research, The Michael J. Fox Foundation focuses on speeding up a cure for Parkinson's disease and improving treatments for those living with the condition—which influences about six million people worldwide. The Michael J. Fox Foundation tries to achieve its goals through a research program coupled with active worldwide efforts of scientists, Parkinson's patients, business leaders, persons taking part in clinical trials (临床试验), and volunteers. Having raised over $ 1.5 billion in research so far, the non-profit has basically changed the path of progress towards a cure.
The Canadian actor said that these treatments have already helped huge numbers of people, including himself. He said, "I enjoy life more. I'm more comfortable in my skin than I was 20 years ago. I can sit down and not be nervous. I couldn't do that 25 years ago."
Recently Fox told of his hope that biomarkers will be the next big stop towards treating and perhaps even stopping the disease. "If we can find ways to discover the condition before it's obvious, if we could take a thin piece of hair and find it, then we could treat it preventively and then maybe you won't get it," he explained.
One thing Fox is sure of: He won't stop fighting until there's a cure.
4. What made Michael J. Fox world-famous in 1985
A. His great wealth. B. His personal research.
C. His performance in a film. D. His fight against a disease.
5. Why was The Michael J. Fox Foundation set up
A. To make money.
B. To work with scientists.
C. To improve people's life.
D. To find a cure for Parkinson's disease.
6. Which of the following best describes Michael J.Fox
A. Confident. B. Strong-willed. C. Caring. D. Easy-going.
7. What could be the most suitable title for the text
A. I enjoy my life more. B. I realized my dream.
C. I won't stop until it happens. D. I am not nervous now.
C
California researchers developed a glove with electronic sensors (传感器) that can translate American Sign Language (ASL) into English in real time through an app on your smartphone.
Previous systems that offered translation from ASL were limited by heavy designs or were uncomfortable to wear. Unlike previous systems, the new one is light, inexpensive and long-lasting, said Chen Jun, an assistant professor of bioengineering at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering and the main researcher on the research.
"Our hope is that this opens up an easy way for people who use sign language to communicate directly with non-signers without needing someone else to translate for them," said Chen. The team worked with four people who are deaf and use ASL and had them repeat gestures up to 15 times while wearing the glove-like device (设备), at the same time teaching a machine how to recognize them. The researchers also added sensors to tester's faces—in between their eyebrows and on one side of their mouths—to recognize facial expressions that are a part of ASL.
The system has thin sensors made from electrically conductive materials that run up each finger and turn the movements into signals. These signals are sent to a dollar-coin-sized circuit board (电路板) placed on the person's wrist, which then moves them over to a smartphone.
The system was able to recognize 660 hand movements and finger placements that stand for each letter in English, different phrases and each number. The system recognized the correct signs about 99% of the time, and in less than one second. However, researchers said the glove would need to learn more vocabulary and be able to translate signs faster in order to be sold in stores.
8. How is the new system different from the previous ones according to Chen
A. It is less heavy. B. It is wearable.
C. It has a beautiful design. D. It can translate more phrases.
9. Who is more likely to use the new system
A. A deaf person who is reading an English novel
B. A Chinese student who is learning spoken English.
C. A deaf girl who is chatting with non-signers using ASL.
D. A non-English-speaker who is talking with English natives
10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How the system works. B. How reliable the system is.
C. What benefits the system has. D. What the system is made up of.
11. What will researchers need to do with the system in the future
A. Reduce its price. B. Change its appearance.
C. Extend its service life. D. Improve its performance.
D
A group of farmers in Nigeria are using a new method to grow crops from moisture (水汽) in the air. The method, known as aeroponics, does not use soil. Instead, plant roots hang in the air and take in nutrients from water mist. The method could make a big difference in places where huge amounts of land have been made unfarmable.
Biochemist Samson Ogbole is popularly known as Nigeria's smart farmer. He and his team are growing crops without soil at the technology-based farm they started three years ago in Abeokuta. Ogbole says they are working hard to end seasonal food shortage in Nigeria. It is just farming anytime during the year, meaning we can plant crops anytime during the year, and that we can harvest anytime during the year.
But setting up the aeroponics farm was not easy. It required more than $180,000. And some people in Abeokuta were very much against this nontraditional method of farming. It took a lot of effort to change people's minds about it. In fact, in Nigeria, about 30 million hectares of farmland is being used, instead of the 78.5 million hectares required for food security (保障). In the north, only 49 percent of the land is rich, a situation that worries traditional farmers. Aeroponics, however, does not require traditional farm work or much land. Nutrients (营养物) for the plants are controlled by a recycling system, greatly increasing productivity.
Dr. Phillip Ojo, Director-General of the National Agricultural Seeds Council, says the government welcomes the new farming method. Ojo notes that with aeroponics, farmers can quickly increase planting materials.
The agricultural industry represents about 40 percent of Nigeria's economy. The government wants to greatly increase this percentage. For now, most farmers lack the technical knowledge to increase productivity. They also need access to high-quality seeds to guarantee better harvests. Technologically skilled farmers like Samson Ogbole are offering a new way forward.
12. What do we know about the aeroponics
A. It helps crops draw nutrients from the soil.
B. It is the process of growing plants in water.
C. It is not affected by the seasons.
D. It is aimed at bringing back farmland.
13. What does "a situation" in paragraph 3 refer to
A. The overuse of the farmland.
B. The poor condition of the soil.
C. The traditional method of farming.
D. The high cost of the aeroponics farm.
14. What is Dr. Phillip Ojos attitude to the aeroponics
A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Unbearable.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. Nigeria's agricultural industry.
B. A new planting mode in Nigeria.
C. The popularity of the aeroponics farm.
D. The need of skilled farmers in Nigeria.
二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）
Mr. Garcia, a businessman from Madrid, Spain, is speaking English to one of his customers, Mr. Patton, from Vancouver, Canada. Mr. Garcia slowly approaches Mr. Patton. (1)
This slow dance continues throughout the conversation until Mr. Patton is against the wall.
What is going on here Probably a misunderstanding in body language. Body language is one kind of nonverbal communication which plays a key role in communication. (2) For example, in the above case, Spanish speakers enjoy a much closer speaking distance than English speakers.
Another example is eye contact. In many American Indian and East Asian cultures, respect is shown by not looking directly into the eyes. (3) Because anything less than full eye contact is considered disrespectful or even devious (不诚实的) in their culture.
Sometimes gestures used in different languages have opposite meanings. (4) In Vietnam and China, the gesture for "come here" is quite similar to that of waving "good-bye" in English. Thus, when speakers of these two cultures are leaving each other, fun things may happen.
(5) The best way to learn gestures for any language or culture is to stay a while in a foreign country to learn not only what people say but how they say it.
A.The latter slowly steps away.
B.Body language is very important.
C.This can produce a humorous effect.
D.But it is not the same in all cultures.
E.Mr. Patton walks slowly in the room.
F.For Western Europeans, the opposite is true.
G.Learning body gestures is rather difficult from textbooks.
16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
19. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
20. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

It was a beautiful sunny day, and Mary and I were playing in her new basement because it was so hot outside. The two of us were best friends, so we naturally did what best friends do-we did everything together. We went camping together, trusted each other and always stuck up for each other.
But that day, something changed. I'll never forget the look on Mary's face when she knocked over her mother's favorite vase that was on the table. The flowers and vase crashed to the floor, and the vase cracked into tons of tiny little pieces. I looked at Mary and said, "There's no way to fix this!"
Mary burst into tears. "What am I going to do What am I going to say " She looked at me while she wiped her tears and asked, "Can you say that you did it "
I was shocked. I didn't know what to do or say, and I started to pace back and forth. "Okay, I'll do it," I said.
That very second, her mother came downstairs to ask about the loud noise she had just heard.
Mary said, "Mom, we were sitting on the couch, and Michelle put her feet on the table and knocked over the vase."
Her mother looked at me and shook her head. "I don't know how many times I have to tell you girls that you shouldn't put your feet on the table.
I apologized to Mary's mother and told her I would buy her a new vase. She said there was nothing to worry about, but we should be more careful next time. I felt so bad. I knew that I had kept Mary out of trouble, but I felt that it wasn't right. I didn't go over to Mary's for a few days, and she didn't come to my house, either. I was busy cleaning and doing extra chores.

4. 下文In Vietnam and China, the gesture for "come here" is quite similar to that of waving "good-bye" in English. Thus, when speakers of these two cultures are leaving each other, fun things may happen.（在越南和中国，“来这里”的手势和在英语中挥手“告别”非常相似。因此，当这两种文化的演讲者离开对方时，可能会发生有趣的事情。）说明不同的文化的肢体语言可能有相反的意思，因此会发生一些有趣的事情，C项中的“humorous”与下文的“fun ”呼应，因此推断C项（这可以产生一种幽默的效果。）符合语境。故选C。
5. 根据下文The best way to learn gestures for any language or culture is to stay a while in a foreign country to learn not only what people say but how they say it.（学习任何语言或文化的手势的最好方法是在国外呆一段时间，不仅学习人们说什么，而且学习是如何说的。）可知，本段谈论学习肢体语言的方式，G项中的“Learning body gestures”相符，因此推断G项（从教科书上是很难学习到肢体语言。）符合语境。故选G。

Michael J. Fox became famous all over the world after starring as Marty McFly in Back to the Future in 1985. Six years later, aged 29, he developed Parkinson's disease. Since then, Fox—who is now 60 years old—has helped raise over $1.5 billion to help find a cure for the progressive nervous system disorder.
As a non-profit organization that provides money for Parkinson's research, The Michael J. Fox Foundation focuses on speeding up a cure for Parkinson's disease and improving treatments for those living with the condition—which influences about six million people worldwide. The Michael J. Fox Foundation tries to achieve its goals through a research program coupled with active worldwide efforts of scientists, Parkinson's patients, business leaders, persons taking part in clinical trials (临床试验), and volunteers. Having raised over $ 1.5 billion in research so far, the non-profit has basically changed the path of progress towards a cure.
The Canadian actor said that these treatments have already helped huge numbers of people, including himself. He said, "I enjoy life more. I'm more comfortable in my skin than I was 20 years ago. I can sit down and not be nervous. I couldn't do that 25 years ago."
Recently Fox told of his hope that biomarkers will be the next big stop towards treating and perhaps even stopping the disease. "If we can find ways to discover the condition before it's obvious, if we could take a thin piece of hair and find it, then we could treat it preventively and then maybe you won't get it," he explained.
One thing Fox is sure of: He won't stop fighting until there's a cure.
4. What made Michael J. Fox world-famous in 1985
A. His great wealth. B. His personal research.
C. His performance in a film. D. His fight against a disease.
5. Why was The Michael J. Fox Foundation set up

D. To find a cure for Parkinson's disease.
6. Which of the following best describes Michael J.Fox
A. Confident. B. Strong-willed. C. Caring. D. Easy-going.
7. What could be the most suitable title for the text
A. I enjoy my life more. B. I realized my dream.
C. I won't stop until it happens. D. I am not nervous now.

California researchers developed a glove with electronic sensors (传感器) that can translate American Sign Language (ASL) into English in real time through an app on your smartphone.
Previous systems that offered translation from ASL were limited by heavy designs or were uncomfortable to wear. Unlike previous systems, the new one is light, inexpensive and long-lasting, said Chen Jun, an assistant professor of bioengineering at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering and the main researcher on the research.
"Our hope is that this opens up an easy way for people who use sign language to communicate directly with non-signers without needing someone else to translate for them," said Chen. The team worked with four people who are deaf and use ASL and had them repeat gestures up to 15 times while wearing the glove-like device (设备), at the same time teaching a machine how to recognize them. The researchers also added sensors to tester's faces—in between their eyebrows and on one side of their mouths—to recognize facial expressions that are a part of ASL.
The system has thin sensors made from electrically conductive materials that run up each finger and turn the movements into signals. These signals are sent to a dollar-coin-sized circuit board (电路板) placed on the person's wrist, which then moves them over to a smartphone.
The system was able to recognize 660 hand movements and finger placements that stand for each letter in English, different phrases and each number. The system recognized the correct signs about 99% of the time, and in less than one second. However, researchers said the glove would need to learn more vocabulary and be able to translate signs faster in order to be sold in stores.
8. How is the new system different from the previous ones according to Chen
A. It is less heavy. B. It is wearable.
C. It has a beautiful design. D. It can translate more phrases.
9. Who is more likely to use the new system
A. A deaf person who is reading an English novel
B. A Chinese student who is learning spoken English.
C. A deaf girl who is chatting with non-signers using ASL.
D. A non-English-speaker who is talking with English natives
10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How the system works. B. How reliable the system is.
C. What benefits the system has. D. What the system is made up of.
11. What will researchers need to do with the system in the future
A. Reduce its price. B. Change its appearance.
C. Extend its service life. D. Improve its performance.
D
A group of farmers in Nigeria are using a new method to grow crops from moisture (水汽) in the air. The method, known as aeroponics, does not use soil. Instead, plant roots hang in the air and take in nutrients from water mist. The method could make a big difference in places where huge amounts of land have been made unfarmable.
Biochemist Samson Ogbole is popularly known as Nigeria's smart farmer. He and his team are growing crops without soil at the technology-based farm they started three years ago in Abeokuta. Ogbole says they are working hard to end seasonal food shortage in Nigeria. It is just farming anytime during the year, meaning we can plant crops anytime during the year, and that we can harvest anytime during the year.
But setting up the aeroponics farm was not easy. It required more than $180,000. And some people in Abeokuta were very much against this nontraditional method of farming. It took a lot of effort to change people's minds about it. In fact, in Nigeria, about 30 million hectares of farmland is being used, instead of the 78.5 million hectares required for food security (保障). In the north, only 49 percent of the land is rich, a situation that worries traditional farmers. Aeroponics, however, does not require traditional farm work or much land. Nutrients (营养物) for the plants are controlled by a recycling system, greatly increasing productivity.
Dr. Phillip Ojo, Director-General of the National Agricultural Seeds Council, says the government welcomes the new farming method. Ojo notes that with aeroponics, farmers can quickly increase planting materials.
The agricultural industry represents about 40 percent of Nigeria's economy. The government wants to greatly increase this percentage. For now, most farmers lack the technical knowledge to increase productivity. They also need access to high-quality seeds to guarantee better harvests. Technologically skilled farmers like Samson Ogbole are offering a new way forward.
12. What do we know about the aeroponics
A. It helps crops draw nutrients from the soil.
B. It is the process of growing plants in water.
C. It is not affected by the seasons.
D. It is aimed at bringing back farmland.
13. What does "a situation" in paragraph 3 refer to
A. The overuse of the farmland.
B. The poor condition of the soil.
C. The traditional method of farming.
D. The high cost of the aeroponics farm.
14. What is Dr. Phillip Ojos attitude to the aeroponics
A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Unbearable.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. Nigeria's agricultural industry.
B. A new planting mode in Nigeria.
C. The popularity of the aeroponics farm.
D. The need of skilled farmers in Nigeria.

Mr. Garcia, a businessman from Madrid, Spain, is speaking English to one of his customers, Mr. Patton, from Vancouver, Canada. Mr. Garcia slowly approaches Mr. Patton. (1)
This slow dance continues throughout the conversation until Mr. Patton is against the wall.
What is going on here Probably a misunderstanding in body language. Body language is one kind of nonverbal communication which plays a key role in communication. (2) For example, in the above case, Spanish speakers enjoy a much closer speaking distance than English speakers.
Another example is eye contact. In many American Indian and East Asian cultures, respect is shown by not looking directly into the eyes. (3) Because anything less than full eye contact is considered disrespectful or even devious (不诚实的) in their culture.
Sometimes gestures used in different languages have opposite meanings. (4) In Vietnam and China, the gesture for "come here" is quite similar to that of waving "good-bye" in English. Thus, when speakers of these two cultures are leaving each other, fun things may happen.
(5) The best way to learn gestures for any language or culture is to stay a while in a foreign country to learn not only what people say but how they say it.
A.The latter slowly steps away.
B.Body language is very important.
C.This can produce a humorous effect.
D.But it is not the same in all cultures.
E.Mr. Patton walks slowly in the room.

It was a beautiful sunny day, and Mary and I were playing in her new basement because it was so hot outside. The two of us were best friends, so we naturally did what best friends do-we did everything together. We went camping together, trusted each other and always stuck up for each other.
But that day, something changed. I'll never forget the look on Mary's face when she knocked over her mother's favorite vase that was on the table. The flowers and vase crashed to the floor, and the vase cracked into tons of tiny little pieces. I looked at Mary and said, "There's no way to fix this!"
Mary burst into tears. "What am I going to do What am I going to say " She looked at me while she wiped her tears and asked, "Can you say that you did it "
I was shocked. I didn't know what to do or say, and I started to pace back and forth. "Okay, I'll do it," I said.
That very second, her mother came downstairs to ask about the loud noise she had just heard.
Mary said, "Mom, we were sitting on the couch, and Michelle put her feet on the table and knocked over the vase."
Her mother looked at me and shook her head. "I don't know how many times I have to tell you girls that you shouldn't put your feet on the table.
I apologized to Mary's mother and told her I would buy her a new vase. She said there was nothing to worry about, but we should be more careful next time. I felt so bad. I knew that I had kept Mary out of trouble, but I felt that it wasn't right. I didn't go over to Mary's for a few days, and she didn't come to my house, either. I was busy cleaning and doing extra chores.

【解析】1. 【文章大意】本文是说明文。文章举例说明了不同的文化肢体语言表达的意思不一样，学习肢体语言不能依靠课本，要去这种文化中待一段时间，不只学习“说”该语言，更要知道他们是“如何表达”的。
上文Mr. Garcia slowly approaches Mr. Patton.（加西亚先生慢慢地走近帕顿先生。）说明加西亚先生慢慢向帕顿先生靠近，下文This slow dance continues throughout the conversation until Mr. Patton is against the wall.（整个对话过程就像在跳慢舞似的一进一退，直到帕顿先生靠到墙壁。）可知，帕顿先生一直向后退，因此推断A项（后者慢慢地向后撤。）符合语境，A项中的“the latter”指的是Mr. Patton。故选A。
2. 上文Body language is one kind of nonverbal communication which plays a key role in communication.（肢体语言是一种在交流中起着关键作用的非语言交流。）提到了肢体语言是在交流中是关键的，下文的举例For example, in the above case, Spanish speakers enjoy a much closer speaking distance than English speakers.（例如，在上述案例中，说西班牙语的人比说英语的人喜欢更近的说话距离。）说明肢体语言在对于不同的文化的人是不同的，D项（但这在所有的文化中并不是都一样的。）符合语境，说明尽管肢体语言重要，但是并不是在所有的文化中都一样。与上文是转折关系，下文是举例说明。故选D。
3. 上文In many American Indian and East Asian cultures, respect is shown by not looking directly into the eyes.（在许多美洲印第安人和东亚文化中，不要直视对方的眼睛是表达尊重的方式。）和下文Because anything less than full eye contact is considered disrespectful or even devious (不诚实的) in their culture.（因为在他们的文化中，如果不正视对方就会被视为不敬，甚至是不够坦诚。）说明空格处与上文是转折关系，F项中的“the opposite is true”表示转折，因此推断F项（在西欧，事实正好相反。）符合语境。故选F。
4. 下文In Vietnam and China, the gesture for "come here" is quite similar to that of waving "good-bye" in English. Thus, when speakers of these two cultures are leaving each other, fun things may happen.（在越南和中国，“来这里”的手势和在英语中挥手“告别”非常相似。因此，当这两种文化的演讲者离开对方时，可能会发生有趣的事情。）说明不同的文化的肢体语言可能有相反的意思，因此会发生一些有趣的事情，C项中的“humorous”与下文的“fun ”呼应，因此推断C项（这可以产生一种幽默的效果。）符合语境。故选C。
5. 根据下文The best way to learn gestures for any language or culture is to stay a while in a foreign country to learn not only what people say but how they say it.（学习任何语言或文化的手势的最好方法是在国外呆一段时间，不仅学习人们说什么，而且学习是如何说的。）可知，本段谈论学习肢体语言的方式，G项中的“Learning body gestures”相符，因此推断G项（从教科书上是很难学习到肢体语言。）符合语境。故选G。
