Stephanie Louise Kwolek was born in the small town of New Kensington, Pennsylvania, in 1923. Her parents were immigrants from Poland. Stephanie’s school was so small that two grades were taught in one classroom. She was an excellent reader with a great memory. She was also very good at math. The older kids in her class got annoyed when she knew answers that they didn’t.
Stephanie’s love of learning came from her father. Every night when he came home from work, he sat and read a book or newspaper. He encouraged Stephanie to explore the great outdoors. Together, they often walked in the woods, collecting leaves, flowers, and seeds. Stephanie’s mother, a seamstress (女裁缝), inspired Stephanie’s creativity. She copied her mother’s patterns to make costumes for paper dolls. Sometimes, she used the sewing machine when her mother wasn’t looking. Stephanie liked working with fabric (织物), and she was good at it. She thought about a career in fashion design.
As Stephanie grew older, she decided she wanted to use science to help people and decided to become a doctor. She studied chemistry in college, but when she graduated, she couldn’t afford to go to the medical school. Instead, she got a job as a chemist at the DuPont Company to earn her tuition fees. The job was supposed to be temporary, but Stephanie fell in love with it and never looked back. Her work at DuPont combined her childhood love of science and fabric with her interest in helping people and solving problems, and her creations would change the world.
At DuPont, Stephanie invented Kevlar fiber. It’s five times stronger than steel. Kevlar fiber is now used in more than 200 products, including spacecraft and bulletproof vest (防弹衣). Stephanie’s invention has saved countless lives. She spent her life researching and teaching people about her work, and was a strong advocate for women in science around the world.

Soil is one of the most important materials of daily life. It’s necessary for growing the food and resources we depend on, protecting against drought (干旱) and flooding and storing carbon dioxide for years to come. But the dirt under our feet is constantly in danger because of rising temperatures and loss of biodiversity caused by climate change. Although we may think soil is simple, it’s pretty hard to know what’s really going on deep in the ground from the surface.
Scientists in Italy, however, think they may have a robotic solution—a seed-inspired (受种子启发的) robot. Scientists at the Bioinspired Soft Robotics (BSR) Lab have developed the first 4D-printed seed-inspired soft robot, which can act as sensors for monitoring pollutants, CO2 levels, temperature and humidity (湿度) in soil.
They were inspired by a South African geranium (a garden plant). The seeds of the plant have the ability to change shape in response to how humid their environment is. When the time comes for the seeds to leave the plant, they can separate themselves from the plant and move independently to find their way through soil. The curly seeds can find a home for themselves simply by becoming bigger or smaller depending on the water content in the air. The team imitated the seeds and developed robots that use materials that also change shape when exposed (暴露) to humidity.
When tested in a soil sample, the robot was able to rock from side to side, adapt its shape to the space, and get into holes in the ground like a natural seed. Not to mention, it was capable of lifting things about 100 times its own weight. First author Luca Cecchini said that the robot is easy to break down and causes no harm to the soil. It could be used as a wireless, battery-free tool for surface soil exploration and monitoring.
8. What can be learned about soil from paragraph 1
A. It is at risk. B. It can be easily polluted.
C. It is seldom studied by scientists. D. It is partly responsible for climate problems.
9. What is the scientists’ purpose of inventing the robot
A. To deal with climate change. B. To improve farming efficiency.
C. To monitor the condition of soil. D. To test the 4D-printing technology.
10. What is the basic design feature of the seed-inspired robot
A. Controlling the soil temperature. B. Changing the shape of plant seeds.
C. Carrying the seeds to the right place. D. Adapting to humidity changes in soil.
11. What did Luca Cecchini say about the robot
A. It is highly affordable. B. It is environment-friendly.
C. It doesn’t perform well in the field. D. It works well under extreme conditions.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍的是意大利科学家们开发出了一种受到植物种子启发的软体机器人,可以作为土壤中污染物、二氧化碳水平、温度和湿度的传感器。这种机器人易于分解并不对土壤造成任何伤害,可以用作无线、无需电池的表面土壤探测和监测工具。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“But the dirt under our feet is constantly in danger because of rising temperatures and loss of biodiversity caused by climate change. (但是,由于气候变化导致的气温上升和生物多样性的丧失,我们脚下的泥土不断处于危险之中。)”可知,由于气候变化导致的气温上升和生物多样性的丧失,我们脚下的泥土不断处于危险之中。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Scientists at the Bioinspired Soft Robotics (BSR) Lab have developed the first 4D-printed seed-inspired soft robot, which can act as sensors for monitoring pollutants, CO2 levels, temperature and humidity (湿度) in soil.(生物启发软机器人(BSR)实验室的科学家们开发出了第一个3d打印的种子启发软机器人,它可以作为监测土壤中污染物、二氧化碳水平、温度和湿度的传感器。)”可知,科学家们发明该机器人的目的是监测土壤中污染物、二氧化碳水平、温度和湿度即检测土壤的状况。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The team imitated the seeds and developed robots that use materials that also change shape when exposed (暴露) to humidity.(该团队模仿种子并开发了机器人,这些机器人使用的材料在暴露于湿度时也会改变形状。)”可知,该机器人可以适应土壤湿度的变化而改变形状。故选D。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“First author Luca Cecchini said that the robot is easy to break down and causes no harm to the soil. It could be used as a wireless, battery-free tool for surface soil exploration and monitoring.(第一作者卢卡·切奇尼说,这种机器人很容易分解,不会对土壤造成伤害。它可以作为一种无线、无电池的工具,用于地表土壤探测和监测。)”可知,该机器人在土壤中很容易分解,不会对土壤造成伤害。因此它是环保的。故选B。

63. 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。续写的词数应为 150 左右。
Tim’s daughters, Hope and Hannah, have smartness, great humor, athletic abilities and beauty. His home is full of medals and many other awards his daughters have won over the years.
But the one thing they have never had in abundance (大量) is money. Having a single parent with a low-paid job, they never have pocket money. They wear hand-me-downs store clothing. But they never complain and never cry out for something Tim can’t afford.
Tim has many wonderful memories of his daughters. However, there is one that stands out.
When Hope was 10 years old and Hannah was 8 years old, they were looking for a gift to give Tim for Christmas. “Dad often gave us gifts. Now I think we should also give one to him,” Hope suggested. Hannah said it was a good idea. And they wondered what gift they should give their dad. After thinking for long, they thought of the National Geographic magazines. Their dad always loved the magazine. But because money was especially tight (紧的) that year, Tim had not been able to subscribe (订阅) to it. “The magazines sold in the bookstore aren’t that cheap. Well, at least, we can buy one and give it to Dad as a Christmas gift,” Hope said.
Not having any money of their own, Hope and Hannah then wondered how to solve the problem. Finally, they decided to find part-time jobs in the small neighborhood to make money. First, they needed to be permitted (允许) by their dad.
When they shared their decision one night, Tim thought they wanted to buy some toys, candy or something else for themselves. Since he couldn’t give them pocket money and thought part-time jobs could be helpful to a kid, he agreed. But he didn’t want them to be too tired, so he reminded them, “When you find you dislike the jobs, you can just give up.” Hope and Hannah smiled and nodded, and Tim thought they surely wouldn’t stick to their part-time jobs for long.
Paragraph 1:
The next morning, Hope and Hannah walked around the neighborhood to look for possible part-time jobs.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
With the money, Hope and Hannah rushed to a nearby bookstore.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The next morning, Hope and Hannah walked around the neighborhood to look for possible part-time jobs. They went from door to door. When seeing each neighbor, they briefly talked about their wish. Touched by their wish, the nice neighbors offered them simple jobs, like regularly watering their flowers and walking their dogs. Hope and Hannah excitedly accepted all the work and then devoted themselves to it. Although the work wasn’t that easy, they continued doing it without complaining. When Christmas approached, they found they had saved enough money.
With the money, Hope and Hannah rushed to a nearby bookstore. Looking at the magazines, they were excited and picked up the latest. Then, they had the magazine wrapped tightly in beautiful paper. When Christmas arrived, Hope and Hannah proudly handed the gift to their dad, and he was surprised and confused. When Tim found what was inside, he asked, “Did you spend all your hard-earned money on the magazine ” Hope and Hannah just smiled. Tim was so moved and gave each of them a big hug. Although he was poor, he felt he was one of the richest father in the world.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,这是一个关于单亲父亲Tim和他的女儿霍普和汉娜的故事。尽管他们家庭生活困难,但是女儿们却很聪明、幽默、有运动天赋和美丽。尽管没有钱,她们也从不抱怨或者向Tim索要他买不起的东西。圣诞节时,她们用她们辛苦赚来的钱买了一本National Geographic杂志作为礼物给爸爸。Tim非常感动,觉得自己是世界上最富有的父亲之一。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“第二天早上,霍普和汉娜在附近散步,寻找可能的兼职工作。”可知,第一段可描写霍普和汉娜兴寻找工作,并且有邻居为她们提供了工作,她们也兴奋地接受了所有的工作,然后全身心地投入其中,目的是存足够的钱。为父亲买圣诞礼物。
②由第二段首句内容“拿着钱,霍普和汉娜冲向附近的一家书店。”可知,第二段可描写拿着钱,霍普和汉娜冲向附近的一家书店去购买杂志送给父亲作为圣诞礼物,同时描述父亲收到礼物后的惊喜和感动,以及父亲的个人感悟。
2.续写线索:

Gitanjali Rao, 15
“Observe, research, build and communicate.” That is what young scientist Gitanjali Rao told actor Angelina Jolie about her work using technology to deal with issues ranging from dirty drinking water to cyberbullying ( 网 络 欺 凌 ).

Now Gordon hopes he can show other kids how to overcome their challenges with art as well.

Stephanie Louise Kwolek was born in the small town of New Kensington, Pennsylvania, in 1923. Her parents were immigrants from Poland. Stephanie’s school was so small that two grades were taught in one classroom. She was an excellent reader with a great memory. She was also very good at math. The older kids in her class got annoyed when she knew answers that they didn’t.
Stephanie’s love of learning came from her father. Every night when he came home from work, he sat and read a book or newspaper. He encouraged Stephanie to explore the great outdoors. Together, they often walked in the woods, collecting leaves, flowers, and seeds. Stephanie’s mother, a seamstress (女裁缝), inspired Stephanie’s creativity. She copied her mother’s patterns to make costumes for paper dolls. Sometimes, she used the sewing machine when her mother wasn’t looking. Stephanie liked working with fabric (织物), and she was good at it. She thought about a career in fashion design.
As Stephanie grew older she decided she wanted to use science to help people and decided to become a doctor. She studied chemistry in college, but when she graduated, she couldn’t afford to go to the medical school. Instead, she got a job as a chemist at the DuPont Company to earn her tuition fees. The job was supposed to be temporary, but Stephanie fell in love with it and never looked back. Her work at DuPont combined her childhood love of science and fabric with her interest in helping people and solving problems, and her creations would change the world.
At DuPont, Stephanie invented Kevlar fiber. It’s five times stronger than steel. Kevlar fiber is now used in more than 200 products, including spacecraft and bulletproof vest (防弹衣).

Soil is one of the most important materials of daily life. It’s necessary for growing the food and resources we depend on, protecting against drought (干旱) and flooding and storing carbon dioxide for years to come. But the dirt under our feet is constantly in danger because of rising temperatures and loss of biodiversity caused by climate change. Although we may think soil is simple, it’s pretty hard to know what’s really going on deep in the ground from the surface.
Scientists in Italy, however, think they may have a robotic solution—a seed-inspired (受种子启发) robot. Scientists at the Bioinspired Soft Robotics (BSR) Lab have developed the first 4D-printed seed-inspired soft robot, which can act as sensors for monitoring pollutants, CO2 levels, temperature and humidity (湿度) in soil.
They were inspired by a South African geranium (a garden plant). The seeds of the plant have the ability to change shape in response to how humid their environment is. When the time comes for the seeds to leave the plant, they can separate themselves from the plant and move independently to find their way through soil. The curly seeds can find a home for themselves simply by becoming bigger or smaller depending on the water content in the air. The team imitated the seeds and developed robots that use materials that also change shape when exposed (暴露) to humidity.
When tested in a soil sample, the robot was able to rock from side to side, adapt its shape to the space, and get into holes in the ground like a natural seed. Not to mention, it was capable of lifting things about 100 times its own weight. First author Luca Cecchini said that the robot is easy to break down and causes no harm to the soil. It could be used as a wireless, battery-free tool for surface soil exploration and monitoring.
8. What can be learned about soil from paragraph 1
A. It is at risk. B. It can be easily polluted.
C. It is seldom studied by scientists. D. It is partly responsible for climate problems.
9. What is the scientists’ purpose of inventing the robot
A. To deal with climate change. B. To improve farming efficiency.
C. To monitor the condition of soil. D. To test the 4D-printing technology.
10. What is the basic design feature of the seed-inspired robot
A. Controlling the soil temperature. B. Changing the shape of plant seeds.
C. Carrying the seeds to the right place. D. Adapting to humidity changes in soil.
11. What did Luca Cecchini say about the robot
A. It is highly affordable. B. It is environment-friendly.
C. It doesn’t perform well in the field. D. It works well under extreme conditions.

63. 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。续写的词数应为 150 左右。
Tim’s daughters, Hope and Hannah, have smartness, great humor, athletic abilities and beauty. His home is full of medals and many other awards his daughters have won over the years.
But the one thing they have never had in abundance (大量) is money. Having a single parent with a low-paid job, they never have pocket money. They wear hand-me-downs store clothing. But they never complain and never cry out for something Tim can’t afford.
Tim has many wonderful memories of his daughters. However, there is one that stands out.
When Hope was 10 years old and Hannah was 8 years old, they were looking for a gift to give Tim for Christmas. “Dad often gave us gifts. Now I think we should also give one to him,” Hope suggested. Hannah said it was a good idea. And they wondered what gift they should give their dad. After thinking for long, they thought of the National Geographic magazines. Their dad always loved the magazine. But because money was especially tight (紧的) that year, Tim had not been able to subscribe (订阅) to it. “The magazines sold in the bookstore aren’t that cheap. Well, at least, we can buy one and give it to Dad as a Christmas gift,” Hope said.
Not having any money of their own, Hope and Hannah then wondered how to solve the problem. Finally, they decided to find part-time jobs in the small neighborhood to make money. First, they needed to be permitted (允许) by their dad.
When they shared their decision one night, Tim thought they wanted to buy some toys, candy or something else for themselves. Since he couldn’t give them pocket money and thought part-time jobs could be helpful to a kid, he agreed. But he didn’t want them to be too tired, so he reminded them, “When you find you dislike the jobs, you can just give up.” Hope and Hannah smiled and nodded, and Tim thought they surely wouldn’t stick to their part-time jobs for long.
Paragraph 1:
The next morning, Hope and Hannah walked around the neighborhood to look for possible part-time jobs.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
With the money, Hope and Hannah rushed to a nearby bookstore.
