Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone, not in features but in footsteps. As he grows you also age, and your ambitions become more unachievable. You begin to realize that your boy, in your footsteps, could probably accomplish what you hoped for. But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions.
My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten. Science projects waited until the last moment. Book reports weren’t written until the final threat.
I’ve been a newspaperman all my adult life. My daughter is a university graduate working towards her master’s degree in English. But Jody? When he entered the tenth grade he became a “vo-tech” student (技校学生). They’re called “motorheads” by the rest of the student body.
When a secretary in my office first called him “motorhead”, I was shocked. “Hey, he’s a good kid, ” I wanted to say. “And smart, really.”
I learned later that motorheads are, indeed, different. They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes. And they don’t often make school honor rolls (光荣榜).
But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education. We who labor in clean shirts in offices don’t have the abilities that motorheads have. I began to learn this when I had my car crashed. The cost to repair it was estimated at $800. “Hey, I can fix it,” said Jody. I doubted it, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose.
My son, with other motorheads, fixed the car. They got parts from a junkyard, and ability from vo-tech classes. The cost was $25 instead of $800.
Since that first repair job, a broken air-conditioner, a non-functioning washer and a non-toasting toaster have been fixed. Neighbours and co-workers trust their car repairs to him.
These kids are happiest when doing repairs. They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world. And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes.
I have learned a lot from my motorhead: publishers need printers, engineers need mechanics, and architects need builders. Most important, I have learned that fathers don’t need clones in footsteps or anywhere else.
My son may never make the school honor roll. But he made mine.
35. What used to be the author’s hope for his son?
A. To avoid becoming his clone. B. To resemble him in appearance.
C. To develop in a different direction. D. To reach the author’s unachieved goals.
36. What can we learn about the author’s children?
A. His daughter docs better in school.
B. His daughter has got a master’s degree.
C. His son tried hard to finish homework.
D. His son couldn’t write his book reports.
37. The author let his son repair the car because he believed that .
A. his son had the ability to fix it B. it would save him much time
C. it wouldn’t cause him any more loss D. other motorheads would come to help
38. What did the author realize in the end?
A. It is unwise to expect your child to follow your path.
B. It is important for one to make the honor roll.
C. Architects play a more important role than builders.
D. Motorheads have greater ability than office workers.
【答案】35. D 36. A 37. C 38. A
【解析】

【36题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English. But Jody? When he entered the tenth grade he became a “vo-tech” student (技校学生).(我的女儿是一名大学毕业生,正在攻读英语硕士学位。但是Jody呢?当他进入十年级时,他成了一名技校学生)可知,作者的女儿学业比儿子更好。故选A。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段最后一句I doubted it, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose.(我怀疑,但还是让他去吧,因为我没有什么损失)可知,作者让他的儿子修理汽车,因为他相信这不会给他带来更多的损失。故选C。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的句子Most important, I have learned that fathers don’t need clones in footsteps or anywhere else.(最重要的是,我明白了父亲不需要克隆人的足迹或其他任何地方)可知,作者最后意识到期望孩子走自己的道路这是不明智的。故选A。
C
Young sunflowers turn and swing every day. New findings add to evidence that the plants are animal-like.
Harmer, a professor in the University of California at Davis, Department of Plant Biology, carried out a series of experiments on sunflowers in the field, in pots outdoors and in indoor growth chambers.
By staking plants so that they could not move, Harmer showed that he could destroy their ability to track the sun. He also noticed that sunflowers prevented from moving were not as tough and leafy as those that were free to move. When plants were moved indoor with a settled overhead light, they continued to swing back and forth for a few days.
The indoor plants did start tracking the “sun” again when the apparent source of lighting was moved across the room. The plants could reliably track the movement and return at night when the artificial day was close to a 24-hour cycle, but not when it was closer to 30 hours.
When sunflowers track the sun, the east sides of their stems grew more rapidly than the west sides. At night, the west sides grew faster as the stem swung the other way. The team identified a number of genes that were expressed at higher levels on the sunward side of the plant during the day or on the other side at night. A plant growth-regulating hormone (激素), called auxin, appears to be a key driver.
The “dance” to the sun cycle obviously slows when the sunflower matures (成熟) and its flowers open up. At that point, the plants stop moving during the day and settle down facing the sun in the east.
“Bees like warm flowers.” Harmer said, adding that the bees are cold-blooded, so landing on a warm flower saves them energy and perhaps feels really good.
“The morning warmth changes the flowers in a way to make them more appealing to insects,
perhaps causing them to release more attractive scents earlier in the day.” he said “We’re currently testing this idea.”
39. Why did Harmer do the experiment on sunflowers?
A. To see how sunflowers grow up.
B. To show what sunflowers’ genes are.
C. To study why sunflowers track the sun.
D. To check if sunflowers swing in cloudy days.
40. What does the underlined word “staking” probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Tracking. B. Fining.
C. Growing. D. Searching.
41 What is the result of sunflowers being stopped from moving?
A. They will produce a number of new genes.
B. They will grow faster than usual.
C. They won’t swing back though set free.
D. They won’t grow well.
42. What is the advantage of sunflowers’ dance to the sun?
A. They attract more insects. B. They save more energy.
C. They mature more rapidly. D. They produce more flowers.
【答案】39. C 40. B 41. D 42. A
【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。年轻的向日葵每天都在旋转和摇摆。新的发现进一步证明这些植物与动物相似。本文介绍向日葵随着太阳转动的原因。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段When sunflowers track the sun, the east sides of their stems grew more rapidly than the west sides. At night, the west sides grew faster as the stem swung the other way. The team identified a number of genes that were expressed at higher levels on the sunward side of the plant during the day or on the other side at night. A plant growth-regulating hormone (激素), called auxin, appears to be a key driver.(
当向日葵沿着太阳生长时,其茎的东侧比西侧生长得更快。到了晚上,随着茎杆向另一边摆动,西边长得更快了。研究小组发现了一些基因,这些基因白天在植物向阳的一侧表达水平较高,而晚上则在植物的另一侧表达水平较高。植物生长调节激素,生长素,似乎是一个关键的驱动因素)可知,Harmer用向日葵做实验的目的是研究向日葵为什么会追踪太阳。故选C。
40题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段第一句By staking plants so that they could not move, Harmer showed that he could destroy their ability to track the sun.(通过staking植物,目的是它们不能移动,Harmer认为他可以摧毁他们的太阳跟踪的能力)可推知,Harmer把植物固定住了,由此可知,划线词意为“固定,捆绑”。故选B。
【41题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第二句He also noticed that sunflowers prevented from moving were not as tough and leafy as those that were free to move.(他还注意到,被阻止移动的向日葵不像那些可以自由移动的向日葵那样坚硬和多叶)可知,向日葵被阻止移动后不能很好地生长。故选D。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的The morning warmth changes the flowers in a way to make them more appealing to insects, perhaps causing them to release more attractive scents earlier in the day.(早晨的温暖在某种程度上改变了花朵,使它们对昆虫更有吸引力,可能导致它们在一天的早些时候释放出更有吸引力的气味)可知,向日葵迎着太阳跳舞的好处是它们能吸引更多的昆虫。故选A。
【名师点睛】做推理判断题时,切不可脱离语境想当然。在句子或段落中,我们可以利用熟悉的词语,根据语言环境所表示的关系推断生词词义。特别注意划线部分前后的内容。本题第2小题,根据第三段第一句By staking plants so that they could not move, Harmer showed that he could destroy their ability to track the sun. 通过staking 植物,目的是它们不能移动,Harmer认为他可以摧毁他们的太阳跟踪的能力。由此可知,是把植物固定住,故选B。
D
A new international study shows that some peopled biological clock plays a powerful role for their life expectancy, regardless of lifestyle choices.
Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday, the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others.
Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA, analyse blood samples
collected from 13,000 people and estimate their lifespan.
A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlier death, the study says.
“You get people who are vegan, sleep 10 hours a day, have a low-stress job, and still end up dying young,” Horvath said in a statement. “We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate.”
The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate, which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age.
“The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate,” Horvath said, adding that “this is an important milestone to realizing this dream.
43 How was the study conducted?
A. By collecting and analyzing data
B. By interviewing lots of people
C. By researching previous studies
D. By studying different lifestyles
44. Some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others because .
A. the biological clock is not powerful enough
B. the most definitive evidence has been found
C. they have a higher actual age than others

【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段 Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA, analyse blood samples collected from 13,000 people and estimate their lifespan.可知,来自加州大学洛杉矶分校的遗传学家史蒂夫·霍瓦特领导了一个由来自世界各地的65名科学家组成的团队,记录了与年龄有关的人类DNA变化,分析了从1.3万人身上采集的血液样本,并估算了他们的寿命。由此可知,这项研究是通过收集和分析数据进行的。故选A。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlier death, the study says.(研究称,无论实际年龄如何,较高的生理年龄始终预示着较早的死亡)及倒数第三段中的We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate.可知,我们已经证明,有些人的先天衰老速度更快。由此可知,有些人保持健康的生活方式,但比其他人死得早,因为他们的衰老速度相对较快。故选D。
【45题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate可知,5%的人有更快的老化速率,由此可知,C项正确。根据第二段中的why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others 可知,人们就算保持健康的生活方式也有可能英年早逝,由此可知,A项错误。根据第四段中的A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlier death 可知,预测人的寿命并不能通过实际年龄,由此可知,B项错误。根据最后一段中的The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate 可知,抗衰老的干预措施只是有可能减缓先天衰老速率,还没有被证实一定会,由此可知,D项错误。故选C。
