B
You might know her as the “most beautiful woman in the world,” a label she always
hated.Lamarr got her start in a 1933 Czech movie called “Ecstasy.”Then, she struck out for America, where she starred in “Tortilla Flat,” “Samson and Delilah” and other movies made during Hollywood's Golden Age.
But Lamarr found Tinseltown shallow.She avoided parties, doodling(涂画)instead on drafting boards she had installed at home.She improved the design of traffic lights, invented a tablet that dissolved into a soft drink, and reimagined the wings of a fuel-efficient plane for Howard Hughes.Her most enduring invention: a form of frequency hopping that was the forerunner of Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS, all of which sit in your phone.
You didn't know that, did you?
“When we close our eyes, we don't see a female inventor.We see Thomas Edison,” says Alexandra Dean, explaining why she chose to direct “Bombshell:The Hedy Lamarr Story,” a new documentary on Lamarr's life.“This actress had done this groundbreaking invention and never been recognized.”
Lamarr isn't the only gifted woman who worked in the shadows of her husband or male colleagues.Rosalind Franklin helped discover the structure of DNA; Ada Lovelace authored early computer programs and algorithms(算法); and Lise Meitner discovered nuclear fission(核裂变).But it was their male colleagues who won recognition and Nobel Prizes.The numbers reflect it:Women have won 48 Nobel Prizes compared with 844 for men.In the sciences, women have won just 19.
“There is no track record to show how many women were not admitted in any scientific circle,” said Gwenaelle Proust, an associate professor at the University of Sydney's School of Civil Engineering, adding that women in Lamarr's era(时代)were sometimes prevented from entering labs.“Who knows how many great minds were overlooked because of their sex?”
That's where “Bombshell” comes in.The movie plays this week in Australia and the UK to coincide with the celebration of International Women's Day, on Thursday.
4. What does the underlined world “Tinseltown” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The movie Ecstasy. B. The label he hated.
C. Hollywood. D. Her knowledge.
5. What led Alexandra Dean to make a film about Lamarr?
A. Lamarr's achievements in the film industry.
B. Female inventors' not being recognized.
C. Lamarr's outstanding beauty.
D. She shows pity on Lamarr.
6. What can we infer from the fifth and sixth paragraph?
A. Women are not treated equally as men in science.
B. Women are less capable than men in science.
C. Women in Lamarr's era never work in labs.
D. women won 67 Nobel Prizes in all.
7. Which of the following best describes Lamarr?
A. The structure discoverer of DNA B. The designer of computer programs
C. The nuclear fission discoverer D. The pioneer of smart phone
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【分析】
本文是记叙文。Lamarr是一位好莱坞明星,在很多电影中担任角色,但是却很少有人知道正是她使得智能手机的出现成为了可能。鉴于此,导演Alexandra Dean 确定拍一部电影Bombshel:The Hedy Lamarr Story以此唤起人们对女性科学家的关注。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“…‘Samson and Delilah’ and other movies made during Hollywood's Golden Age.”得知上文谈到的是在好莱坞拍电影的情况,可推知此处“Tinseltown”指的是好莱坞。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“When we close our eyes, we don't see a female inventor.We see Thomas Edison”says Alexandra Dean, explaining why she chose to direct “Bombshell:The Hedy Lamarr Story,” 可知,亚历山大在解释她为什么选择导演这部电影时说:“当我们闭上眼睛,我们不会看到女性发明家,我们看到的是爱迪生”。可以推断出女性发明家不被认可促使Alexandra Dean拍了一部关于Lamarr的电影。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中第五段“…But it was their male colleagues who won recognition and Nobel Prizes.The numbers reflect it:Women have won 48 Nobel Prizes compared with 844 for men.In
the sciences, women have won just 19.”(但她们的男性同事获得了表彰和诺贝尔奖。数字反映了这一点:女性获得了48个诺贝尔奖,而男性获得了844个。在科学领域,女性仅获得了19个奖项)可知,在获得诺贝尔奖上女性数量和男性数量存在着巨大的差异,科学领域尤其明显,由此推知,在科学领域男女受到不公平对待。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Her most enduring invention:a form of frequency hopping that was the forerunner of Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS, all of which sit in your phone.”可知,她最持久的发明是一种跳频形式,它是蓝牙,Wi-Fi 和 GPS的先驱,可推知她是智能手机的先驱。故选D。

C
Over the past five decades mosquito populations in parts of the Baltimore have increased rapidly by a factor of 10-a situation with worrying inferences for the spread of diseases such as West Nile virus, dengue and chikungunya(西尼罗病毒、登革热和基孔肯雅病).A new study published last October in the Journal of Medical Entomology found that in Baltimore, low-income neighborhoods bear the biggest burden: they have not only more mosquitoes but also larger ones, which often survive longer.
The problem most likely is rooted in the fact that Baltimore has nearly 17,000 abandoned buildings, which are concentrated in economically disadvantaged areas and serve as convenient mosquito-breeding zones.To effectively beat mosquitoes and the diseases they carry, the study suggests, cities will need to account for urban infrastructure(基础设施).
Researchers at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies in Millbrook, N.Y., and the University of Maryland trapped adult Aedes albopictus (better known as Asian tiger mosquitoes)in five Baltimore residential neighborhoods over three years. This species, introduced to the U.S. in 1987, is now the most common in many American cities.When the researchers measured the mosquitoes’ wing lengths, a proxy(代表)for body size, they found that the insects grew larger in lower-income blocks.
Bigger mosquitoes are not just a bigger annoyance: the larger they are, the longer they tend to live-and the more times each one can bite.Because mosquitoes have to bite at least once to become infected with disease-causing microorganisms(微生物)and again to pass them on to people, bigger mosquitoes could pose higher disease risks.Larger mosquitoes also lay more eggs, setting the stage
for higher numbers later on.Senior study author Shannon LaDeau, a Cary Institute disease ecologist, and her colleagues found in a 2013 study that low-income blocks in Baltimore were 72 percent more likely to have Asian tiger mosquitoes than high-income blocks were and showed higher mosquito densities(密度).
8. What makes mosquitoes in Baltimore worrying?
A. They indicate Baltimore is poorer than other places.
B. They can cause bigger mosquitoes in Baltimore.
C. They contribute to the spread of diseases.
D. They usually survive shorter than expected.
9. Where does the mosquito problem in Baltimore lie?
A. In its larger population. B. In its poorer economy.
C. In its geographical location. D. In its dense buildings.
10. What can be learned about Aedes albopictus?
A. They are also called Asian tiger mosquitoes.
B. They are most found in African countries.
C. They arrived in the U.S. in the year 1887.
D. They grow larger in more wealthy areas.
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. Diseases spread by Asian tiger mosquitoes.
B. Measures to deal with Asian tiger mosquitoes.
C. Features of Asian tiger mosquitoes.
D. Problems arising from bigger mosquitoes.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
本文是说明文。过去五十年来,美国一些地方的蚊子数量上升了10倍, 暗示一些疾病的传播, 如登革热等。一项新的研究表明一些经济落后地区蚊子头个头大、数量大、活的时间长, 造成的危险大。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段中“a situation with worrying inferences for the spread of diseases such as West Nile virus, dengue and chikungunya
.”(对西尼罗病毒、登革热和基孔肯雅热等疾病传播的推断令人担忧。)可知,在巴尔的摩的蚊子导致了疾病的传播,这让人很担忧。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。由第二段中“The problem most likely is rooted in the fact that Baltimore has nearly 17,000 abandoned buildings, which are concentrated in economically disadvantaged areas ”( 这个问题的根源很可能是巴尔的摩有近17000栋废弃建筑,这些建筑都集中在经济落后地区。)可知巴尔的摩的蚊子问题主要位于经济落后地区,故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中“Aedes albopictus(better known as Asian tiger mosquitoes)”(白纹伊蚊(俗称亚洲虎蚊)。)可知白纹伊蚊又叫做亚洲虎纹。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。由最后一段“Bigger mosquitoes are not just a bigger annoyance:the larger they are,…were 72 percent more likely to have Asian tiger mosquitoes than high-income blocks were and showed higher mosquito densities.”( 更大蚊子不仅仅让人更烦恼:它们越大,亚洲虎蚊的出现几率就比高收入群体高72%,而且蚊子密度也更高。)可知本段主要内容是谈论大蚊子引出的问题.故选D项。
D
Disappointment is a natural human emotion that occurs after a failure. For our young children, this failure can look like not getting the toy they wanted, not being invited to a classmate’s birthday party or losing their favourite stuffed animal.
It is essential for children’s mental health, well-being and overall development that they experience how to deal with disappointment well. But this can be difficult for parents to handle, particularly around holidays that have grown to involve gift-giving and expectations.
North American culture often mistakenly links love and happiness with material goods such as toys; the Santa story promises magical wish fulfillment. This can cause conflict for parents when children do not get the “right” gift.
On holidays, there’s social and personal pressure to provide happiness and joy to children through material objects, which can be confused with providing the necessities. For parents who do not have the resources to provide the perfect or desired gift, this can cause additional stress, shame, guilt and fear around disappointment. Parents may feel as though they have let down their child and that they have impacted the child’s experience or memory of their “special day”.
This is especially true if the child has difficulty with or is learning to regulate emotions and expresses disappointment through tantrums (发怒) or sulking (生闷气). These behaviours can affect parents profoundly, often leading them to feel badly about themselves or that the child does not love them.
Changing our focus from giving rather than receiving can help our children develop and appreciate the strength in gratitude. Research has linked gratitude to significant health and wellness benefits such as improving self-esteem, improving sleep and developing empathy.
The other thing to know is that although disappointment feels awful, it is a part of life and is actually a positive and healthy emotion that’s central to children’s emotional, cognitive and social development throughout their lives.
12. Why is it difficult for parent to handle disappointment on Christmas?
A. It is connected with children’s overall development.
B. It is the custom to give gifts or show expectations.
C. Children are easy to have tantrums or sulking.
D. Children often expect too much of their parents.
13. What is the author’s attitude toward linking love and happiness with material goods?
A. Positive. B. Concerned. C. Interested. D. Supportive.
14. What does the author feel about changing our focus to giving rather than receiving?
A. It can avoid disappointment in life.
B. It can help children’s academic development.
C. It is a necessary part of one’s life.
D. lt helps children realize the benefits of being grateful.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. What Christmas Can Teach Kids about Disappointment
B. How We Can Meet Our Children’s Expectations Best
C. What Harm Disappointment Does to Most Children
D. What Are the Rights to Give to Your Children on Christmas
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. A
【解析】
本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了孩子们在圣诞节期间的失望中能够学到东西.应让孩子们认识到失望是人生的一部分。这对于孩子们一生中情感、认知以及社会交往的发展都十分重要。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中But this can be difficult for parents to handle, particularly around holidays that have grown to involve gift-giving and expectations.可知,但这对父母来说可能很难处理,尤其是在节日期间,因为节日已经变成了送礼和期望的节日。由此可知,对父母来说,在圣诞节处理失望情绪是很困难的,因为送礼物或表达期望是一种习俗。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段中This can cause conflict for parents when children do not get the “right” gift.及第四段中For parents who do not have the resources to provide the perfect or desired gift, this can cause additional stress, shame, guilt and fear around disappointment.可知,当孩子没有得到“正确”的礼物时,这可能会引起父母的冲突。对于那些没有足够资源提供完美或想要的礼物的父母来说,这可能会导致额外的压力、羞愧、内疚和对失望的恐惧。由此可知,作者对于把爱情和幸福与物质联系起来的态度是非常担心的。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由第六段Changing our focus from giving rather than receiving can help our children develop and appreciate the strength in gratitude. Research has linked gratitude to significant health and wellness benefits such as improving self-esteem, improving sleep and developing empathy.可知,把我们的注意力从给予而不是接受上转移,可以帮助我们的孩子发展并欣赏感恩的力量。研究表明,感恩对健康和健康有很大的好处,比如提高自尊、改善睡眠和培养同情心。由此可知,作者认为把我们的注意力转移到给予而不是接受可以帮助孩子们意识到感恩的好处。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。由最后一段The other thing to know is that although disappointment feels awful, it is a part of life and is actually a positive and healthy emotion that’s central to children’s emotional, cognitive and social development throughout their lives.可知,另一件要知道事是,尽管失望感觉很糟糕,但它是生活的一部分,实际上是一种积极健康的情绪,对孩子一生的情感、认知和社会发展至关重要。由此可知,本文主要论述了孩子们在圣诞节期间从失望中能学到的东西。What Christmas Can Teach Kids about Disappointment(圣诞节教会孩子们什么是失望)适合做本文最佳标题。故选A。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从知文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中两项为多余选项.
You may already have a crystal clear idea of your passion.___16___More often than not, you face overwhelm because you're looking at new changes in one gulp.A good way to build trust in your own abilities is to take it 30 days at a time.Let me explain.
Pick a new habit that you think is necessary in designing your enthusiastic life.Look at it not as a permanent change but as something that you've got to do for the next 30 days only.___17___You're trying this new habit on for 30 days and you're free to give it up if you don't like what follows.
___18___You decide to run outdoors for 25 minutes every single day for next 30 days regardless of your schedule or the weather.You enter a pact(契约).
Once you gain the motivation, you'll soon realize it's hard to stop after day 7.___19___And day 28, you're this close to your goal, why would you stop then?
Now on day 30, you feel somewhat like this: “Wow, I never thought I'd be able to do this for 30 days straight! I wonder what happens if I continue to bet my own record.How amazing it'd be if I kept going on day 31,32 and so on?___20___You believe in yourself because you're living your passion.”
A. You just don't know how to live it.
B. Great goal often needs great efforts.
C. Try as hard as you can whenever possible.
D. And who in their right mind would stop after day 15?
E. After all, it no longer feels too hard to run for 25 minutes.
F. For example, you know one of your passions is to run a marathon.
G. It's like those free digital products that you can try before you buy.
【答案】16. A 17. G 18. F 19. D 20. E
【解析】
这是一篇说明文,作者介绍了实现自己希望的生活的一些方法指导:不要一口吃个胖子,要循序渐进,每次制定30天的短期目标。
【16题详解】
本题为过渡句,根据上文“You may already have a crystal clear idea of your passion.(你可能已经对自己的激情有了清晰的认识。)”提出一个论点,结合下文“More often than not, you face overwhelm because you're looking at new changes in one gulp.(通常情况下,你会因为一下子看到新的变化而不知所措。)” A项内容“你只是不知道如何把它实现”可以在这两个内容之间做好承上启下的功能。第一段是导入段需要提出问题:你有激情,但很多情况下不知所措。故选A。
【17题详解】
由下文“You're trying this new habit on for 30 days and you're free to give it up if you don't like what follows.(你已经尝试这个新嗜好30天了,如果你不喜欢接下来要发生的事情,你可以放弃。)”可知这是尝试阶段,G项内容“它就像那些免费的数码产品,你可以在购买之前试用。”符合要求,故选G。
【18题详解】
由下文讲述的话题““You decide to run outdoors for 25 minutes every single day for next 30 days.(你决定在接下来的30天里每天在户外跑25分钟)”可知指的是跑马拉松,所以前面可以说:比如说你的激情之一就是跑马拉松,与下文对应,故选F。
【19题详解】
由上文 “it's hard to stop after day 7.(7天后很难停下来。)”;“And day 28, you're this close to your goal.(在第28天时,你已经很接近目标。)”可知这个时候头脑正常的人均不会停下来,故选D。
【20题详解】
根据上文“How amazing it'd be if I kept going on day 31,32 and so on?(如果我在第31天,第32天一直继续下去,会有多神奇?)”可知下文解释原因,使用E项“毕竟跑25分钟不是难事了”,故选E。

4.my→his
5.surprising →surprised
6.去掉used前的was
7.With→ For
8.clerk前加a
9.similarly→ similar
10.and →or
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了祖父和祖母认识的过程。
【详解】1.考查名词。句意:在认识之前,我的祖父母住在相距120英里的两个镇上。Town为可数名词,two修饰可数名词复数形式。故将town改为towns。
2.考查主谓一致。句意:在那个年代,120英里是一段要走很长的路。120 miles表示距离,表示金钱、时间、重量、距离的名词作为整体看时,谓语动词用单数。故将were改为was。
3.考查动词时态。句意:但故事是这样说的,我祖父千里迢迢去参加他一个亲戚的葬礼。根据上下文动词were和went可知,此处陈述过去发生的事情,需用一般过去时。故将travel改为travel(l)ed。
4.考查代词。句意:葬礼后,他去他叔叔的商店,惊奇地发现它开着。此处主语是he,对应的形容词性物主代词是his。故将my改为his。
5.考查形容词。句意同上。分析句子结构,此处需用形容词作表语,主语是人,表示人的感受,需用-ed结尾的形容词。故将surprising改为surprised。
6.考查固定短语。句意:许多人过去参加葬礼只是为了做个好邻居。此处表示的是过去常常做某事,used to do sth.为固定短语,意为“过去常常做某事”。故将used前的was去掉。
7.考查介词。句意:不管什么原因,它是开着的。表示原因时,名词前常用介词for。故将With改为For。
8.考查冠词。句意:有一个叫玛丽的店员负责这家商店。Clerk意为“职员”,是可数名词,此处表示泛指,且clerk以辅音音素开头,需用不定冠词a修饰。故在clerk前加a。
9.考查形容词。句意:他开始和她聊天,发现他们有很多相似的兴趣,最后聊了两三个小时。分析句子结构,此处修饰名词interests,需用形容词作定语。故将similarly改为similar。
10.考查连词。句意同上。两到三个小时,这是选择关系,不是并列关系,需用连词or连接。故将and改为or。

My coming-of-age ceremony
Last weekend, we attended the coming-of-age ceremony, which definitely was an enjoyable experience.
To begin with we reviewed our high school life together, which was full of happiness. The years are valuable memories for us. In the following part of the ceremony, we watched a video that introduced schoolmates’ efforts to fight against COVID-19.
