Jem was twelve. He was difficult to live with, inconsistent, moody. His appetite was enormous, and he told me so many times to stop annoying him. I consulted Atticus: “Reckon he’s got a tapeworm?” Atticus said no, Jem was growing. I must be patient with him and disturb him as little as possible.
This change in Jem had come about in a matter of weeks. Several times he went so far as to tell me what to do. After one argument when Jem shouted, “It’s time you started bein’ a girl and acting right!” I burst into tears and fled to Calpurnia.
“Don’t you worry too much over Mister Jem—” she began.
“Mister Jem?”
“Yeah, he’s just about Mister Jem now.”
“He ain’t that old,” I said. “All he needs is somebody to beat him up, and I ain’t big enough.”
“Baby,” said Calpurnia, “I just can’t help it if Mister Jem’s growin’ up. He’s gonna want to be off to himself a lot now, doin’ whatever boys do, so you just come right on in the kitchen when you feel lonesome. We’ll find lots of things to do in here.” She seemed glad to see me when I appeared in the kitchen.
But summer came and I received a letter from Dill. It said he would not come this summer. I was not used to his absence. I stayed miserable for two days.
As if that were not enough, the state legislature (立法机关) was called into emergency session and Atticus left us for two weeks. There were sit-down strikes in Birmingham; bread lines in the cities grew longer, people in the country grew poorer. But these were events remote from the world of Jem and me.
We were surprised one morning to see a cartoon picture of our father in The Montgomery Advertiser. It showed Atticus barefooted and in short pants, chained to a desk: he was diligently writing on a stone while some frivolous (轻佻的)-looking girls yelled, “Yoo-hoo!” at him.
“That’s a compliment (表扬),” explained Jem. “He spends his time doin’ things that wouldn’t get done if nobody did ’em.”
“Huh?”
In addition to Jem’s newly developed characteristics, he had acquired a maddening air of wisdom.
“Oh, Scout, it’s like reorganizing the tax systems of the counties and things. That kind of thing’s pretty dry to most men.”
“How do you know?”
“Oh, go on and leave me alone. I’m readin’ the paper.”
Jem got his wish. I departed for the kitchen.
4. Which of the following did NOT affect Scout’s life that summer?
A. Jem’s growing. B. Dill’s failing to come.
C. Atticus’ leaving for sessions. D. A cartoon in the newspaper.
5. What belonged to Jem’s newly developed characteristics that summer?
A. His tapeworm. B. His eating much.
C. His consistent mood. D. His abuse of Scout.
6. Scout hoped that Jem could return to normal if someone ________.
A. hit him heavily B. disturbed him
C. treated him badly D. made him independent
7. What happened outside the world of Jem and Scout that summer?
A. People went on strike by eating nothing.
B. More people were waiting for food.
C. People went to the countryside.
D. Atticus was chained to his office.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. B
【解析】
本文是记叙文,是小说《杀死一只知更鸟》节选,讲述Scout这个夏天的生活。Jem 12岁了,性格反复无常,不好相处,身上除了最近出现的怪脾气外,还自作聪明; Dill在这个夏天又不能来;Atticus又外出两个星期参加中紧急会议。这都使Scout心情不是很愉快。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。从文章三个地方可以看出Scout 这个夏天心情不是很愉快;①第一段Jem was twelve. He was difficult to live with, inconsistent, moody(Jem12岁了,不容易相处,性格反复无常)② I received a letter from Dill. It said he would not come this summer. I was not used to his absence. I stayed miserable for two days(Dill 来信说不来了,让Scout又伤心了两天);③As if that were not enough, the state legislature (立法机关) was called into emergency session and Atticus left us for two weeks(然而这好像还不够似的,Atticus又要去参加州立法机关的紧急会议,两个星期不能回家)。这些都对Scout有影响。故选D项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段:Jem was twelve. He was difficult to live with, inconsistent, moody. His appetite was enormous. I consulted Atticus: “Reckon he’s got a tapeworm?” Atticus said no, Jem was growing. Jem十二岁了,不好相处,反复无常,胃口大得惊人。Scout跑去问Atticus:“我想他肚子里有条绦虫吧?”Atticus说不是(有条绦虫),而是因为Jem正长身体,所以脾气怪,食量大。故选B项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。Jem冲着Scout吼,说:“你也该像个女孩子,行为该规矩点了!”Scout很生气,对Calpurnia说“He ain’t that old, All he needs is somebody to beat him up, and I ain’t big enough(他的年龄还不够格呢,他需要的就是让人揍上一顿,可惜我太小了点)”。Scout很生气 想揍Jem一顿。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判读题。根据There were sit-down strikes in Birmingham; bread lines in the cities grew longer, people in the country grew poorer. But these were events remote from the world of Jem and me(伯明翰发生了数起静坐罢工,城里等待分发救济食物的队伍越来越长;乡下的人则越来越穷。这些都离我和Jem的天地远远的)可知,在Jem和Scout的生活之外,还有很多人在挨饿。故选B项。
C
A block chain is a data structure that stores time-ordered data in an ever-growing list, like an accounting ledger (分类账簿). The block chain data structure is maintained using a distributed, peer-to-peer network of computers with no central “master”. As with many new concepts, block chain technology generates much optimism and also a huge amount of interest and excitement. Just what is it good for?
In short, block chains may improve any process where people need to access, confirm, send or store information securely. This information could be a person’s identity, a product’s shipment history or digital property like money.
Typical databases, spreadsheets (电子数据表), and ledgers store information about objects, people, and the interactions between them. Much of the world’s information, from credit card transactions to medical and financial records, is stored in these types of systems.
These types of systems have considerable, well-documented weaknesses that arise from their being centralized. A centralized record is hard to understand and is exposed to unauthorized access or distribution. It is also, because it is a ‘master’ copy, exposed to permanent changing or deletion.
Block chains are also used to store information. Crucially, however, they differ in two ways.
First, information is parceled up into blocks and sealed. Bitcoin, for example, which is the most famous practical example of a production block chain, stores all transactions across the network every ten minutes or so in a single, newly formed block. Each block is then added to the
previous one to form a chain.
Second, this “chain of blocks” is not stored centrally. Instead, each block is copied and distributed around an entire network of peers - be they individuals, public institutions, or businesses - using distributed ledger technology. (The terms “block chain” and “distributed ledger” are often used interchangeably; for the sake of clarity, block chain technologies tend to employ distributed ledger technology.)
Each time someone adds a new block to the chain, meanwhile it is added to everyone’s copy.
8. What is the biggest strength of a block chain?
A. It promotes people’s enthusiasm about new technology.
B. It strengthens the security of processing information.
C. It enables people to store more data in time order.
D It stores a large part of world’s information.
9. The typical systems used to store information are weak in that ________.
A. they are difficult to operate B. they can be accessed easily
C. they have a central “master” D. they store considerable documents
10. The passage is developed mainly by ________.
A. making comparisons B. giving examples
C. making a list D. showing the effect and causes
11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To analyze the weaknesses of typical systems.
B. To encourage the popularity of the block chain.
C. To introduce the new concept of the block chain.
D. To compare the two different data structures.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. C
【解析】
本文是说明文, 介绍一种新的存储系统——区块链的概念、好处,并比较区块链和典型的存储系统的不同之处。区块链的优势在于增强人们信息处理的安全性。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。第一段最后提出问题Just what is it good for?(好处是什么?),
第二段回答这个问题:block chains may improve any process where people need to access,
confirm, send or store information securely (区块链可以改善任何人们需要安全访问、确认、发送或存储信息的过程)。区块链的优势是增强人们信息处理的安全性。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段These types of systems have considerable, well-documented weaknesses that arise from their being centralized. A centralized record is hard to understand and is exposed to unauthorized access or distribution. It is also, because it is a ‘master’ copy, exposed to permanent changing or deletion 可知,这种典型的系统有相当大的弱点,而这些弱点产生于它们的集中化。集中记录很难理解,并且暴露在未经授权的访问或分配中。也是因为它是 “主”本,会遭到永久更改或删除。因此这种系统的缺点在于集中化。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第5段Block chains are also used to store information. Crucially, however, they differ in two ways(区块链也被用来存储信息。但关键的是,它们在两个方面有所不同)可知,文章是围绕将区块链和典型的存储系统作比较而展开的。下文是说明区块链存储信息方式的不同。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一、二段介绍区块链的概念和好处,第三、四段介绍典型系统存储信息,第六、七、八段介绍区块链存储信息的不同之处。因此本文是介绍区块链这一新的概念。故选C项。
D
Henry Stanley is perhaps best known for his expedition into Africa to find Dr. David Livingstone, but that’s not the only rescue mission he undertook. In December 1886, Stanley set off into Africa on what would be his last journey: an attempt to find and bring home a German zoologist named Eduard Schnitzer.
Schnitzer had taken the name “Emin Pasha,” in an attempt to be better received by those he was living among. Pasha was cataloging a host of recently-discovered plant and animal lifeforms when fighting broke out in the Sudan. Pasha withdrew to Equatoria, at about the same time the Emin Pasha Relief Committee was formed. In addition to the chief goal of bringing Pasha home, Stanley was also under orders from the King of Belgium to open up some new trade routes in the area.
The roundabout route the Committee ended up taking meant that by the time they finally
found Pasha many members of the expedition were dead. Those that did survive were worn, ill, and starving by the time they found Pasha who, in comparison, was well-dressed, clean, and—by some accounts—smoking a three-year-old cigar when they finally found him. He was in need of some support and supplies, but he had neither intent nor desire to leave the area. Arguments arose, causing a firm hatred between Stanley and Pasha.
Stanley finally convinced Pasha to leave with the remains of the expedition, setting off on a demanding trip back through Africa. They finally met up with some German explorers, and made it back to the port town of Bagamoyo in 1889.
During the party they threw to celebrate their return to civilization, Pasha fell off a balcony and broke his skull. Stanley returned to Europe to receive commendations and congratulations, while Pasha slowly recovered from his unwanted rescue.
12. What may be the title of this passage?
A. Happiness was balanced by sadness B. Stanley’s best known expedition
C. A “successful” rescue mission D. A legend of Emin Pasha
13. What resulted in the deaths of the members of the expedition?
A. Hatred among the members led to bloody conflicts.
B. They were involved in a fighting with the local army.
C. The Committee was dismissed halfway through the mission.
D. The route they chose cost them too much time and supplies.
14. What does “commendations” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Criticism. B. Resignation.
C. Preparation. D. Credit.
15. What does the author want to convey by mentioning “smoking a three-year-old cigar”?
A. Pasha was in good condition. B. Pasha ran out of supplies.
C. Pasha felt delighted at their arrival. D. Pasha was addicted to tobacco.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. A
【解析】
本文是记叙文, 讲述Henry Stanley的一次援救行动。他带领探险队历尽千辛万苦远征非洲,将Pasha救了回来,尽管Pasha不愿意离开。

【14题详解】
词义猜测题。从最后一段celebrate their return(庆祝回归)、congratulations(祝贺)可知,Stanley回到欧洲接受嘉奖和祝贺。criticism批评;resignation任命;preparation准备; credit赞许,赞扬。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段:那些活下来的探险队员遭受疲惫、疾病、饥饿。相比之下,Pasha穿着得体、干净,还吸着一支三年前的雪茄。由此可以看出Pasha的状态很好。
故选A项。
