Far Rockaway, New York B For most farm boys, plowing the family field only inspires them with boredom. But forl4-year-old electronics talent Philo Farnsworth. going up and down the rows gave him the idea to project a recorded image by scanning (扫描) electrons back and forth across a glass screen. When he consulted his high school chemistry teacher about the idea, it was so complex that he had to draw a picture on the blackboard, which the teacher quickly copied down to study later. Encouraged by his teacher, Farnsworth continued his concept and, in 1927. at the age of 21, he developed and patented (中请专利) the world's first working fully-electronic television But like many other inventions, there were other people developing related ideas at the same time, One such man, Vladimir Zworykin, fled a patent for a similar concept in 1923, but couldn't make it actually work. In 1933, he got a patent on televisions. However, due to a mistake, the original filing date read 1923, making his patent earlier than Farnsworth's When his patent was approved, Zworykin was working for Radio Corporation of America (RCA), who planned to produce televisions using his design. Believing that his 1927 patent was better than the 1933 patent Farnsworth charged for royalties (特许使用权费) by law. Of course RCA insisted their employee had the paten before Farnsworth, so they refused to pay him any money. Farnsworth had an ace up his sleeve-his chemistry teacher. The teacher in court showed the original picture of 14-year-old Farnsworth's blackboard explanation, proving he had been working on the invention well before Zworykin had even applied for his patent Farnsworth received payments from RCA, but as America entered World War II, the government stopped the production of television sets. Shortly after the ban was removed, Farnsworth's patent expired (期满) allowing RCA to make televisions free. This meant that, as television sales exploded in the 195os and 60s Farnsworth lost the most profitable years of his own invention 56. Farnsworth's TV-related idea was inspired by__. A. other farm boys B. his farm work C. his chermistry teacher D. the image of a glass screen 57. ike Farnsworth, the man named Zworykin__. A. inyented many thingg B. was also a young talent C. patented his idea in 1923 D. worked on the TV-related idea 58. We can know that __. A. Farnsworth confused his chemistry tcacher by asking a hard question B. Zworykin came up with the same idea as Farnsworth's 4 years later C. in Farnsworth's opinion, his design was better than Zworykin's D. RCA awarded Zworykin much money for his useful invention 59. By saying "Farnsworth had an ace up his sleeve", the author means that __. A. Farnsworth had a strong proof from his teacher B. Farnsworth refused to pay his chemistry teacher money C. Farnsworth was clever enough to leave the evidence D. Farnsworth thanked his chemistry teacher very much 60. It can be inferred from the text that __. A Zworykin applied for his patent after World War II B. Farnsworth's teacher helped him apply for the patent C. Farnsworth failed to get much benefit from his invention D. Farnsworth was once employed by R.CA for several months C A. friend and I were exittng a meeting and caught some cigarette smoke from a passer-by. "You know," said, "I still erave cigarettes, even though I quit three decades ago." He nodded and said, "I started smoking when I was 12. When I finally auit it 15 years ago, I'd turned 40. It looked so glamorous in those old Hollywood movies that we youth followed suit. It still does now, And like you, I still want to smoke, too." The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a report about tobacco use in the top-grossing (票房收入最高的) movies. "Reducing tobacco use in youth-related movies could help prevent the initiation(开 始) of tobacco use among young persons, especially those not suitable for children to watch without an adult.' said the report. And. although it found less smoking in G and PG movies since 2010, tobacco use in PG-13-rated top-grossing films has increased by 43% since 2010. Those films are labeled "Parents strongly cautioned esp for children under age 13". The Surgeon General (SG) website states, "The youth who are exposed to images of smoking in movies are more likely to smoke. Those who get the most exposure to onscreen smoking are about twice as likely to begir smoking as those who get the least exposure." The SG has concluded that there is a causal relationship between smoking in the movies and "the initiation of smoking among young people". America's leading health organizations are now demanding that all movie producers and distributors slap (强制实行) an R rating on film that show smoking onscreen. Interestingly, they've indicated a possible exception for movies based on historical figures. Really, it would be strange to watch a film about Franklin D. Roosevelt, Dwight D. Eisenhower, or Lyndon B. Johnson without showing a single cigarette. And can you imagine Winston Churchill without a cigar? But who will decide when it's necessary to include smoking in order to show history accurately? When will it matter enough for those in the entertainment business to risk receiving an R rating and losing millions at the box office? 61. The underlined word "erave" in Paragraph 1probably means __. C. hate B. smoke A. desire D. carry 62. We can know that the author's friend ___. A. stilf smokes now and then B. is now forty years old or more C quit smoking earlier than the author D. began to smoke after seeing some films 63. PG movies refer to __. A. perfect grade movies B. parental guidance movies C. program guidance movies D. public grade movies 64. The author thinks the exception for movies based on historical figures is ___. B. unfair A. inefficient C. understandable D. Absurd 65. In the last paragraph the author indicates that A. cleaning films is a good idea B. historical movies are no exception C. the entertainment movie should be an exception D. smoking scenes in movies are not easily forbidder D Since Hurricane Florence, news reports have turned to focus on the storm's destructive power and the survivors' efforts to restore their ruined lives and communities. But there's another side to the story that goes mostly unnoticed: disasters can set the stage for deep personal growth. When we started to explore the long-term effects of disasters after Hurricane Katrina, the possibility of growth was far from our minds. We had focused our eyes so tightly on the negative consequences of trauma (创 伤: 痛苦经历)-like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTsD)-that we had neither the mindset nor the tools to detect (发现) growth. But our students suggested that we pay attention to post-traumatic growth (PTG) Stories of gaining strength through misfortune exist in large numbers in religion, philosophy, poetry and literature. Yet, it is only within the past 20 years that researchers Richard Tedeschi and Lawrence Calhoun developed the vocabulary and measures to measure PTG. As our study expanded, we discovered that more than a third of the survivors reported growth. Particularly when given support and opportunities to deeply deal with their traumatic experiences of losing loved ones, homes and neighborhoods, many of the survivors we studied showed an astonishing ability to set their lives in more meaningful directions. They took professional risks and got out of bad habits and relationships and lost their attachment to material things. They valued relationships, experienced deeper spirituality and fel a sense of gratefulness in their everyday lives How does post-traumatic growth work? Essentially, trauma violates the assumptions that many of us carry -that the world is controllable and that, if we live our lives well, bad things won't happen to us or our loved ones. We are blind to the randomness of events and rarely consider life's unpredictability and impermanence. Such mindsets help us to automatically distance ourselves from others' suffering and trauma when we witness it and to vastly underesumate our own risk of experiencing such misfortune, After a trauma, many survivors struggle to reconstruct these asumptions and to neatly fit their changedMives back into old realities. This approach prevents growth and has been compared to trying to restore a broken vase (花瓶)-- it will never be as seamless (无缝的) as it once was. But those who can struggle to deal with and reconcile (调解) the difference between pre- and post-trauma goals and beliefs stand to grow stronger and wiser Such psychological growth requires an emotional distance from new traumas and an ability to step back and think deeply that not everyone possesses 66. The passage infers that PTG A: all has a religious origin B. is hard to measure C. is a comparatively new subject in science D. is the necessity for personal growth 67. The effect of traumatic experiences on survivors is that __. A. they start to live their lives more wisely B. they.no longer igmore material things in life C. they attach less importance to valued relationships D. they become more experienced in dealing with disasters 68. After witnessing others' suffering and trauma, many people __ A. show deep sympathy for the victims B. fail to relate the situation to themselves C. imagine experiencing the same thing themselves D. are reminded to prepare themselves for potential risks 69. Survivors' attempt to reconstruct their pre-trauma mindsets and lives is usually. A. unfavorable and in vain B. worthwhile, though unsuccessfu C. reasonable and respectable D. meaningless but determined 70. The best title for the text is _. A. Does Misfortune Make Us Better or Worse? B. What does Hurricane Florence Teach Us about Life C. How to Get Over Trauma and Reconstruct Life? D. Have You Heard about Post-Traumatic Growth? 五、阅读表达阅读下列短文,并按题目要求用英文回答问题。 26-year-old Ste Burke had just gotten back to his Liverpool home from the gym earlier this week when he was approached by three men asking if he wanted to buy a bike. Burke was immediately suspicious of its origin since they were trying to sell the f 135o bike for f 1oo.Besides that, he noticed there was a bike lock still attached to the rear wheel (后轮) After Burke bought the bike, he posted a photo of it on social media in hopes of finding the original owner “Has anyone had his bike stolen? Just bought this for f 80 and there is a bike lock still attached to the rear wheel. Obviously it's from the Crosby area. Bought it so I can get it back to the right owner. I know it's a f 135o bike and the owner would be heartbroken. Please send me a message."Burke wrote.

The man tried to ceimburse Burke for f 8o, but he refused, tolling reporters that he "didn't feel right taking money off a man who has just had his house stolen." Burke has since been given social media praise for his honesty, although he says that he did not return the bike for media attention. However, Burke is delighted to receive praise from his rapper 'hero" Stormzy, and a British bicycle factory has also offered to give Burke a free bike as a reward for his honesty 71.
