The sky was gray with the gloomy clouds. “There must be heavy rain soon,” I said to myself. When I hurried into the classroom, the sky was covered by black clouds. I felt quite uncomfortable, though it was calm, without any wind. I saw the leaves of trees and grass remained still, which seemed to await something to happen. Several minutes later, I saw the lightening split the clouds and heard the thunder following. Suddenly, the heavy rain fell and the wind blew. Soon the grass was flattened under the wind and the rain. With the rain forming like a fog, the sky became bright. I took a deep breath. I felt comfortable. The heavy rain lasted three hours and stopped when the class was over. The air was so fresh and the sky was so clear. I felt like a new man myself.

John von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he might lead a poor life being a mathematician, so von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry.
In 1930, von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others).
World War Ⅱ hugely changed von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematical theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died of cancer in 1957.
Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.
Von Neumann really was a legend in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of his legend. He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.”
24. When was John von Neumann able to make a living with mathematics
A. 1920. B. 1932. C. 1930. D. 1926.
25 What can be inferred about John von Neumann
A. He worked in the same research institute as Einstein before.
B. He set out to apply the theories into practice before World War Ⅱ.
C. It was his father who changed his profession completely.
D. He is indifferent to fame and fortune throughout his life.
26. Why is John von Neumann considered a great person
A. For his first book’s effect. B. For his great contributions.
C. For his sacrifice in World War Ⅱ. D. For his devotion to his school.
27. Why was John von Neumann’s driving mentioned
A. To illustrate a driving test. B. To report a serious accident.
C. To show his high humour. D. To clarify his great wealth.

When ancient Egyptians put pen to paper—or, more accurately, ink to papyrus (纸莎草纸) —they took steps to ensure that their words would last forever, a new study suggests. Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have found that ancient scribes (抄写员) likely added lead to their inks to help their writing dry. More than 1,000 years later, reports Cosmos Magazine, 15th-century European artists employed lead as well. According to the London National Gallery, lead-based pigments found in many Old Master paintings are “known to aid the drying of paint films.”
According to a statement from the University of Copenhagen, the study’s authors analyzed 12 papyrus pieces dating back to between 100 and 200 C.E., when Egypt was under Roman control. The team used X-ray microscope to determine the raw materials used in different inks, as well as the chemical structure of the dried ink attached to the ancient paper. Ancient Egyptians began writing with ink—made by burning wood or oil and mixing the resulting material with water—around 3200 B.C. Typically, scribes used black, carbon-based ink for the body of text and reserved red ink for headings and other key words in the text. Though black and red inks were most common, shades of blue, green, white and yellow also appeared in ancient texts.
The researchers write that the Egyptians created red inks with iron-based combinations—most likely natural earth pigments. The team also identified the presence of lead. They were bowled over that there was no lead white or other combinations that would typically be present in a lead-based pigment. Instead, the ancient ink’s lead pigments appeared to wrap around the papyrus cell walls and iron particles (微粒). The resulting effect looked “as if the letters were outlined” in lead. This finding indicates that the ancient Egyptians invented a system of adding lead to red and black inks specifically for the purpose of sticking the words to paper.
The 12 analyzed papyrus pieces are part of the University of Copenhagen’s Papyrus Carlsberg Collection. The documents originated in Tebtunis, the only large-scale institutional library known to have survived from ancient Egyptian times.
28. What is the main function of lead in the masterpieces of the ancients
A. To make the colors brighter. B. To stick the ink to the pen.
C. To help the writing dry. D. To increase their thickness.
29. What can be inferred from the statement
A. It was easy for X-ray microscope to detect the raw materials.
B. Only wet inks can be used to determine their chemical components.
C. Ancient Egyptians already knew black could catch eyes easily.
D. The inks used by the ancient Egyptians came in a variety of colors.
30. What do the underlined words mean
A. Amazed. B. Concerned. C. Angry. D. Worried.
31. How did the ancient Egyptians make words stay on paper for a long time according to Paragraph 3
A. By combining several kinds of colors.
B. By adding lead to red and black inks.
C. By breaking the structure of the colors.
D. By analyzing the elements of the paper.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要通过介绍哥本哈根大学研究人员的最新发现,揭开了古埃及墨水中的秘密成分——铅。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“ancient scribes (抄写员) likely added lead to their inks to help their writing dry(古代抄写员可能会在墨水中加入铅,以帮助字迹变干)”和“15th-century European artists employed lead as well(15世纪的欧洲艺术家也使用铅)”以及“lead-based pigments found in many Old Master paintings are “known to aid the drying of paint films.(在许多古代大师的画作中发现的铅基颜料有助于漆膜的干燥。)”可知,铅在古人杰作中的主要作用是帮助字迹变干。故选C。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“Though black and red inks were most common, shades of blue, green, white and yellow also appeared in ancient texts.(虽然黑色和红色的墨水是最常见的,但蓝色、绿色、白色和黄色的色调也出现在古代文本中。)”可知,古埃及人使用的墨水颜色多种多样。故选D。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“there was no lead white or other combinations that would typically be present in a lead-based pigment. Instead, the ancient ink’s lead pigments appeared to wrap around the papyrus cell walls and iron particles (微粒). The resulting effect looked “as if the letters were outlined” in lead.(没有铅白或其他通常存在于铅基颜料中的混合物。相反,古代墨水的铅颜料似乎包裹在纸莎草细胞壁和铁颗粒上。最终的效果看起来“好像字母是用铅笔画出来的”。)”可推知,没有铅白色或其他通常存在于铅基颜料中的混合物,这让他们很震惊,划线词bowled over意为“惊讶的”,和Amazed的意思相近。故选A。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“This finding indicates that the ancient Egyptians invented a system of adding lead to red and black inks specifically for the purpose of sticking the words to paper.(这一发现表明,古埃及人发明了一种向红色和黑色墨水中添加铅的系统,专门用于将单词粘在纸上。)”可知,古埃及人通过在红墨水和黑墨水中加入铅让文字长时间留在纸上。故选B。
D
New discoveries and technological breakthroughs are made every year. Yet, as the information industry moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the way they eat. A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States. The movement supports eating foods grown locally and sustainably, rather than prepackaged foods shipped from other parts of the world.
Experts hold that eating local has many merits, and is expected to become a trend featuring sustainability. Erin Barnett is the director of Local Harvest, a company that aims to help connect people to farms in their area. By eating local, she argues, people have a better and more personal understanding of the impact their food consumption has on the rest of the world. “There is a way of connecting the point, where eating locally is an act that raises our awareness of sustainable living,” Barnett says.
The United States’ agricultural output is one of the highest in the world, says Timothy Beach, a professor of geography and geoscience at the University of Texas in Austin, Texas. “There’s just no other place on Earth where the amount of input is so productive,” Beach says of American agriculture. “Nobody can cut off the food we need.”
However, the US food system is not sustainable because of its dependency on fossil (化石) fuels, says Beach. Equipment used on “extremely productive” farms is quickly consuming Earth’s natural resources, particularly oil. Additionally, the production of agricultural supplements (补充剂),such as fertilizer, uses large amounts of energy.
The world has used close to half of the global oil supply, Beach says, and the second half will be consumed at an even faster rate because of the growing population and economic development. Although many businesses are experimenting with wind, solar, and biofuel, Beach says there’s nothing that we see on the horizon that can replace it. “There is no way on Earth we are using fossil fuels sustainably. Then we have to reconsider the impact of eating local,” he says.
32. What is the special focus of the “locavore” movement
A. The development of information society. B. The emergence of new discoveries.
C. The localization and sustainability of food. D. The globalization of eating styles.
33. What is Erin Barnett’s opinion
A. Agricultural companies have the responsibility to help farmers.
B. Raising the awareness of sustainability is an urgent issue currently.
C. Eating locally can quickly increase the growth of the local economy.
D. The diversity of things can greatly enrich the lives of local people.
34. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4
A. The agricultural weaknesses of the US. B. The benefits of fossil fuels.
C. The most productive equipment on farms. D. The consumption of local food.
35. What is the challenge facing the world now
A. The population is growing too fast. B. Global economy develops rapidly.
C. Eating locally can’t be accepted. D. No suitable energy can replace oil.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。随着信息产业的发展,美国兴起了“土食者”运动,该运动支持食用在本土以可持续方式种植的食物,从而提高人们对可持续生活的意识。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The movement supports eating foods grown locally and sustainably, rather than prepackaged foods shipped from other parts of the world.(该运动支持食用当地种植的可持续食品,而不是从世界其他地区运来的预包装食品)”可知,这场运动的重点是食品的本地化和可持续性。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“By eating local, she argues, people have a better and more personal understanding of the impact their food consumption has on the rest of the world. “There is a way of connecting the point, where eating locally is an act that raises our awareness of sustainable living,” Barnett says.(她认为,通过吃本地食物,人们对自己的食物消费对世界其他地区的影响有了更好、更个人化的理解。巴内特说:“有一种方法可以把这一点联系起来,在当地吃饭是一种提高我们可持续生活意识的行为。”)”可知,艾琳·巴奈特的观点是提高对可持续发展的认识是当前一个紧迫的问题。故选B。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“However, the US food system is not sustainable because of its dependency on fossil (化石) fuels, says Beach. Equipment used on “extremely productive” farms is quickly consuming Earth’s natural resources, particularly oil. Additionally, the production of agricultural supplements (补充剂),such as fertilizer, uses large amounts of energy.(然而,美国的粮食系统是不可持续的,因为它依赖化石燃料,比奇说。“生产力极高”的农场使用的设备正在迅速消耗地球的自然资源,尤其是石油。此外,生产农业补品(例如化肥)需要消耗大量能源)”可知,第四段的主旨是美国农业的弱点。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Although many businesses are experimenting with wind, solar, and biofuel, Beach says there’s nothing that we see on the horizon that can replace it. “There is no way on Earth we are using fossil fuels sustainably. Then we have to reconsider the impact of eating local,” he says.(尽管许多企业正在试验风能、太阳能和生物燃料,但比奇说,我们认为目前还没有什么可以取代它们。“在地球上,我们不可能可持续地使用化石燃料。然后我们必须重新考虑本地饮食的影响。”)”可知,现在世界面临的挑战是没有合适的能源可以取代石油。故选D。

【64题详解】
考查副词。句意:联合国教科文组织东亚多部门区域办事处代表Shahbaz Khan通过视频在论坛上发言时说:“公约的框架充分认识到非物质文化遗产在赋权和确保可持续发展方面的重要性。”空格处用副词作状语,修饰动词recognizes,full的副词是fully,意为“充分地”,故填fully。

Soon he was surrounded by people who were attracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to get it soon.”
After about half an hour, a middle-aged man rushed through the crowd to the violinist and said, “Yes, it’s you.

John von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he might lead a poor life being a mathematician, so von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry.
In 1930, von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others).
World War Ⅱ hugely changed von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematical theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died of cancer in 1957.
Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.
Von Neumann really was a legend in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of his legend. He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.”
24. When was John von Neumann able to make a living with mathematics
A. 1920. B. 1932. C. 1930. D. 1926.
25. What can be inferred about John von Neumann
A. He worked in the same research institute as Einstein before.
B. He set out to apply the theories into practice before World War Ⅱ.
C. It was his father who changed his profession completely.
D. He is indifferent to fame and fortune throughout his life.
26. Why is John von Neumann considered a great person
A. For his first book’s effect. B. For his great contributions.
C. For his sacrifice in World War Ⅱ. D. For his devotion to his school.
27. Why was John von Neumann’s driving mentioned
A. To illustrate a driving test. B. To report a serious accident.
C. To show his high humour. D. To clarify his great wealth.

When ancient Egyptians put pen to paper—or, more accurately, ink to papyrus (纸莎草纸) —they took steps to ensure that their words would last forever, a new study suggests. Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have found that ancient scribes (抄写员) likely added lead to their inks to help their writing dry. More than 1,000 years later, reports Cosmos Magazine, 15th-century European artists employed lead as well. According to the London National Gallery, lead-based pigments found in many Old Master paintings are “known to aid the drying of paint films.”
According to a statement from the University of Copenhagen, the study’s authors analyzed 12 papyrus pieces dating back to between 100 and 200 C.E., when Egypt was under Roman control. The team used X-ray microscope to determine the raw materials used in different inks, as well as the chemical structure of the dried ink attached to the ancient paper. Ancient Egyptians began writing with ink—made by burning wood or oil and mixing the resulting material with water—around 3200 B.C. Typically, scribes used black, carbon-based ink for the body of text and reserved red ink for headings and other key words in the text. Though black and red inks were most common, shades of blue, green, white and yellow also appeared in ancient texts.
The researchers write that the Egyptians created red inks with iron-based combinations—most likely natural earth pigments. The team also identified the presence of lead. They were bowled over that there was no lead white or other combinations that would typically be present in a lead-based pigment. Instead the ancient ink’s lead pigments appeared to wrap around the papyrus cell walls and iron particles (微粒). The resulting effect looked “as if the letters were outlined” in lead. This finding indicates that the ancient Egyptians invented a system of adding lead to red and black inks specifically for the purpose of sticking the words to paper.
The 12 analyzed papyrus pieces are part of the University of Copenhagen’s Papyrus Carlsberg Collection. The documents originated in Tebtunis, the only large-scale institutional library known to have survived from ancient Egyptian times.
28. What is the main function of lead in the masterpieces of the ancients
A. To make the colors brighter. B. To stick the ink to the pen.
C. To help the writing dry. D. To increase their thickness.
29. What can be inferred from the statement
A. It was easy for X-ray microscope to detect the raw materials.
B. Only wet inks can be used to determine their chemical components.
C. Ancient Egyptians already knew black could catch eyes easily.
D. The inks used by the ancient Egyptians came in a variety of colors.
30. What do the underlined words mean
A. Amazed. B. Concerned. C. Angry. D. Worried.
31. How did the ancient Egyptians make words stay on paper for a long time according to Paragraph 3
A. By combining several kinds of colors.
B. By adding lead to red and black inks.
C. By breaking the structure of the colors.
D. By analyzing the elements of the paper.

New discoveries and technological breakthroughs are made every year. Yet, as the information industry moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the way they eat. A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States. The movement supports eating foods grown locally and sustainably, rather than prepackaged foods shipped from other parts of the world.
Experts hold that eating local has many merits, and is expected to become a trend featuring sustainability. Erin Barnett is the director of Local Harvest, a company that aims to help connect people to farms in their area. By eating local, she argues, people have a better and more personal understanding of the impact their food consumption has on the rest of the world. “There is a way of connecting the point, where eating locally is an act that raises our awareness of sustainable living,” Barnett says.
The United States’ agricultural output is one of the highest in the world, says Timothy Beach, a professor of geography and geoscience at the University of Texas in Austin, Texas. “There’s just no other place on Earth where the amount of input is so productive,” Beach says of American agriculture. “Nobody can cut off the food we need.”
However, the US food system is not sustainable because of its dependency on fossil (化石) fuels, says Beach. Equipment used on “extremely productive” farms is quickly consuming Earth’s natural resources, particularly oil. Additionally, the production of agricultural supplements (补充剂),such as fertilizer, uses large amounts of energy.
The world has used close to half of the global oil supply, Beach says, and the second half will be consumed at an even faster rate because of the growing population and economic development. Although many businesses are experimenting with wind, solar, and biofuel, Beach says there’s nothing that we see on the horizon that can replace it. “There is no way on Earth we are using fossil fuels sustainably. Then we have to reconsider the impact of eating local,” he says.
32. What is the special focus of the “locavore” movement
A. The development of information society. B. The emergence of new discoveries.
C. The localization and sustainability of food. D. The globalization of eating styles.
33. What is Erin Barnett’s opinion
A. Agricultural companies have the responsibility to help farmers.
B. Raising the awareness of sustainability is an urgent issue currently.
C. Eating locally can quickly increase the growth of the local economy.
D. The diversity of things can greatly enrich the lives of local people.
34. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4
A. The agricultural weaknesses of the US. B. The benefits of fossil fuels.
C. The most productive equipment on farms. D. The consumption of local food.
35. What is the challenge facing the world now
A. The population is growing too fast. B. Global economy develops rapidly.
C. Eating locally can’t be accepted. D. No suitable energy can replace oil.

On a Friday night, a poor young artist named Anthony Perry stood at the gate of the New York railway station, playing his violin. The violinist was a student at an arts college and had planned to attend advanced studies in Vienna. He needed money to pay the tuition, so he played the violin at the railway station every day to make money. The music was so great that many people stopped to put some money into the hat of the young man.
The next day, Anthony came to the same place, and put his hat on the ground gracefully. Different from the day before, he took out a large piece of paper and laid it under his hat. Then he began to play the violin. It sounded more pleasant than ever.
Soon he was surrounded by people who were attracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to get it soon.”
After about half an hour, a middle-aged man rushed through the crowd to the violinist and said, “Yes, it’s you. I knew that you were an honest man and would certainly come here.” The young violinist asked calmly, “Are you Mr George Sang ” The man nodded. The violinist asked, “Did you lose something ” “It’s a lottery ticket (彩票),” said the man.
