How to become a scientist
Be curious.Scientists choose to become scientists because they are curious about the world around them and how the things in it work.This curiosity leads them to investigate the how and why behind what they see.
Be patient in climbing the career ladder. 1 There are very few careers that take longer than this one.Even when you’re doing with your education,you still have to get research under your belt.If you’re an instant-gratification(即时满足)type of person,this may not be the right career for you.
Be hard-working and persevere(持之以恒).It’s been said that jobs in science are the lowest paid in the US.What this is getting at is that because of the long path to success,for a while you won’t be living lavishly(丰富地). 2 Have the need to always keep learning. 3 Whether it’s reading peer-reviewed journals,attending seminars,or working towards getting yourself published,you’ll always be learning.
4 In those years of waiting for results,you need to constantly be looking for the smallest changes in what you expect to see.Your eye needs to be focused and ready at all times.
Think differently.Think back to Newton’s apple falling on his head or Archimedes jumping into his tub and displacing water.Most people would think nothing of these events,but these men saw something else,something no one else was seeing at the time. 5
A.Observation skills are also necessary.
B.Becoming a scientist takes a long time.
C.Things are going to be tough for a while.
D.Then you’re probably made of the right stuff.
E.As the saying goes,“Where there is a will,there is a way.”
F.Actually what every scientist does is seek out knowledge.
G.To make progress in human knowledge,you have to think differently.

Ⅴ.【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者跟一位乞讨老妇人之间的暖心故事。

10.D 根据前文“by saying she wanted to thank me”可知,老妇人想要感谢作者。故选D项。
11.A 根据前文“She has prepared for several days to say to me for my attitude towards her.People walk by,sometimes drop some money,but”中的but可知,其他人会给钱,但是很少有眼神交流。故选A项。

13.B 根据后文“because she knew I would see her as a person and probably stop to talk to her”可推知,老妇人期盼作者路过。故选B项。
14.D 结合语境以及后文“and probably stop to talk to her”可知,只有作者把她当作正常人来看。故选D项。

Ⅵ.读后续写
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。
A teacher in New York decided to honor each of her seniors in high school by telling them the difference they each made.She called each student to the front of the class,one at a time.First she told them how the student made a difference to her and the class.Then she presented each of them with a blue ribbon(缎带) imprinted with gold letters which read,“Who I Am Makes a Difference.” Afterwards the teacher decided to do a class project to see what kind of influence recognition would have on a community.She gave each of the students three more ribbons and instructed them to go out and spread this acknowledgment ceremony.Then they were to follow up on the results,see who honored whom and report back to the class in about a week.
One of the boys in the class went to a junior manager in a nearby company and honored him for helping him with his career planning.The boy gave him a blue ribbon and put it on his shirt.Then he gave him two extra ribbons,and told him what it was all about.
Later that day the junior manager went in to see his boss,who had been noted,by the way,as being kind of a conceited(傲慢的) fellow.He seated his boss down and told him that he deeply admired him for being a creative genius.The boss seemed very surprised.The junior manager asked him if he would accept the gift of the blue ribbon and give him permission to put it on him.His surprised boss said,“Well,sure.” The junior manager took the blue ribbon and placed it right on his boss’s jacket above his heart.
As he gave him the last extra ribbon,he said,“Would you do me a favor Would you take this extra ribbon and pass it on by honoring somebody else The young boy who first gave me the ribbons is doing a class project in school and we want to keep this recognition ceremony going and find out how it affects people.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

That night the boss came home to his 14-year-old son.

Ⅳ.【语篇解读】这是一篇应用文。文章主要是向两位不辞劳苦、坚持在封闭的小岛上工作了23年的老师表达感谢。
1.mine 考查代词。根据句意和句子结构可知,此空要作介词“of ”的宾语,表达所有格的意思,所以要用名词性物主代词形式。故填mine。
2.conveniences 考查名词的数。空格前面是形容词“modern”可知,此空要填名词。根据前面的不定代词“many”可知,此空要用可数名词复数形式。故填conveniences。
3.are 考查动词时态。根据句子结构分析可知,此空是谓语,因为主语 “supplies”是复数名词,所以谓语动词要用复数形式。根据上下文可知,这是对现在情况的介绍,所以用一般现在时。故填are。
4.surprised 考查形容词。分析句子结构可知,此空是作表语。根据句子意思可知,这里指那些来到岛上的人们自己感到吃惊,所以要用-ed形式形容词。故填surprised。
5.to adjust 考查非谓语动词。根据句子结构可知,这里考查短语find it hard to do sth.。故填to adjust。
6.who 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,“ live on the island”是定语从句,先行词是“Many”,指代人,在从句中作主语,应用关系代词who引导。故填who。
7.have stayed 考查动词时态。根据句子的时间状语“for 23 years long”可知,要用现在完成时。主语是“These two primary school teachers”,所以助动词用have。故填have stayed。
8.the 考查冠词。the only表示“唯一”的意思,是固定搭配,也符合句子意思。故填the。
9.tirelessly 考查副词。分析句子结构和意思可知,此空需用副词,修饰动词“work”,故填tirelessly。
10.for 考查介词。分析句子结构和意思可知,此处是固定短语for the sake of(为了)。故填for。

“My days are really busy and I don’t pay a lot of attention to you,” continued the father.“Sometimes I scream at you,but somehow tonight,I just let you know that you make a difference to me.You’re a great kid and I love you!” The startled boy started to sob and sob,and he couldn’t stop crying.He looked at his father and said through his tears,“I didn’t think you loved me.This is the happiest day I’ve had.”Unit 2分层跟踪检测(一)Starting out & Understanding ideas

(2023·江苏淮安高二期中)
Max Mathews has been called the father of computer music.He created electronic tools so that people could use computers as musical instruments.He had a great influence on the development of electronic music and how it is written,recorded and played.
In 1957,Mathews wrote the first computer program that enabled a computer to create sound.At that time,he was working as an engineer at Bell Laboratories in New Jersey.His computer program enabled a large IBM computer to play a 17 seconds piece of music that he had written.The computer was so slow that it would have taken an hour to play the piece of music in 17 seconds.For that reason,Mathews moved the work to a tape player,which could be sped up to play the music at a normal speed.He later said that the sound quality of the musical notes was not great,but the technical importance of the music was huge.
Mathews continued creating other versions of the music program.He became interested in how computers could help musicians outside recording studios.The Groove program he developed was the first computer program made for live performances.
He also developed an electronic device he called the Radio Baton.The device looks like two drum sticks.It enables the user to control the speed and sound levels of orchestral music playing on a computer.The user does this by moving the two sticks on a special electronic surface.
Mathews believed modern musicians are not making full use of the power of computer music.He said a violin always sounds like a violin.But with a computer,the way a violin sounds is unlimited.He said he didn’t want computer sounds to replace live music.But he said he hoped laptop computers would one day be considered serious instruments.
4.What do we know about Mathews’s first piece of computer music
A.It took several minutes to play this music.
B.It was written in the middle of the 1950s.
C.It made the IBM computer work so slowly.
D.It had the same good quality as other music.

A.improve the sound quality of music

A.computer sounds would take the place of live music
