B George Gershwin, born in 1898, was one of America's greatest composers. He published his first song when he was eighteen years old. During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs. Many of Gershwin's songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City. These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s. Many of his songs have remained popular as ever. Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way — from jazz to country. In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music. Could jazz, some people asked, be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music. Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time, he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular. In 1928, Gershwin went to Paris. He applied to study composition with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger, but she rejected him. She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style. While there, Gershwin wrote An American in Paris. When it was first performed, critics(评论家) were divided over the music. Some called it happy and full of life, to others it was silly and boring. But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States. It still remains one of his most famous works. George Gershwin died in 1937, just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages. 4. Many of Gershwin's musical works were ______. A. written about New Yorkers B. composed for Paul Whiteman C. played mainly in the countryside D. performed in various ways 5. What do we know about the concert organized by Whiteman? A. It attracted more people to theatres B. It proved jazz could be serious music C. It made Gershwin leader of the orchestra D. It caused a debate among jazz musicians 6. What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris？ A. He created one of his best works B. He studied with Nadia Boulanger C. He argued with French critics D. He changed his music style 7. Which of the following best describes Gershwin? A. Talented and productive. B. Serious and boring. C. Popular and unhappy. D. Friendly and honest. C Nowadays, handwriting seems to become less necessary, for young children learn to tap and touch screens before they have even learned to pick up a pencil or tie their shoelaces. Most of our written communication is done through texting（发送信息）on mobile phones or typing on a keyboard. And voice recognition software is becoming more and more advanced－making even keyboard unnecessary! So, are handwriting skills important to your child? Actually handwriting is an exercise in eye-hand coordination（手眼协调）skills, which are connected with achievements in study. Scientists found that developing fine（精细的）visual-motor（视觉运动）skills in early childhood can predict not only writing success, but better performance in reading and math in elementary school. It was also found that kids who fail to write neatly and efficiently are often accused of being lazy. And this may affect their behavior and self-worth. Moreover, a study showed that when a group of children were asked to come up with ideas for an essay, the ones with better handwriting were more active and had quicker minds. In some ways, handwriting helps their brains’ development. The first attempts at writing can be challenging for preschool children whose necessary fine motor skills are not yet fully developed. But some skills to prepare for handwriting are simple to build at home and in preschool. Parents should provide lots of opportunities for kids to copy and draw shapes and simple pictures in early childhood before letters are introduced. Let your child copy your shapes in sand, or with chalk on a board before trying to draw shapes on their own. Encourage your child to spend less time on electronic devices and more time on activities to improve eye-hand coordination. Let’s face it－technology is certain to continue developing and more research is needed to find the best ways to teach handwriting to young children. But, there’s plenty of evidence that the handwriting practice young children get can provide a jump start in developing skills needed for a healthy and successful journey in school. 8. According to paragraph 1, handwriting is . A. easy to learn on a touch screen. B. more difficult than typewriting. C. used less for communication now. D. totally replaced by voice recognition software. 9. How does the author explain the benefits of handwriting? A. By stating some research finding. B. By giving examples of the kids around him. C. By quoting some news reports on handwriting. D. By analyzing data about pupils with good grades. 10. What does the author suggest parents do? A. Keep young children away from electronic devices. B. Teach preschool children to write letters with chalk. C. Encourage children to face writing challenges bravely. D. Help children get ready for handwriting before school. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. Does poor handwriting really mean being lazy? B. How can handwriting affect children’s self-confidence? C. Should handwriting be taken seriously in children’s growth? D. Should homework be done through handwriting or typewriting? D They may look like ordinary glasses but they’re not. These trendy-looking glasses from researchers have a special ability and it doesn’t have to do with nearsightedness. Embedded on the bottom of the frames(框) are tiny speakers and microphones that can emit silent sound waves and receive echoes back. This ability comes in handy for detecting mouth movements, allowing the device to detect low-volume or even silent speech. That means you can whisper or mouth a command, and the glasses will pick it up like a lip reader. “For people who cannot vocalize sound, this silent speech technology could be an excellent input for a voice synthesizer(合成器),” said a doctoral student. The tech could also be used by its wearers to give silent commands to a paired device, like a laptop or a smartphone. It is proved that EchoSpeech could recognize 31 commands and connected data with error rates of less than 10 percent. The speakers and microphones are placed on different lenses on different sides of the face. When the speakers give off sound waves around 20 kilohertz, it travels in a path from one lens to the lips and then to the opposite lens. As the sound waves from the speakers reflect and diffract after hitting the lips, their distinct patterns are caught by microphones and used to make “echo profiles” for each phrase or command. It effectively works like a simple, mini sonar system. “Because the data is processed locally on your smartphone instead of being uploaded to the cloud, privacy-sensitive information never leaves your control,” a professor noted. Plus, audio data takes less bandwidth to transmit than videos or images, and takes less power to run as well. 12. What does the underlined word “emit” mean in Paragraph 1? A. Make out. B. Keep off. C. Send out. D. Take off. 13. What’s the special function of the glasses, according to the passage? A. Preventing eyes from sunlight. B. Offering help for nearsightedness. C. Getting whisper information. D. Receiving movement instruction. 14. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The effects of EchoSpeech. B. The parts of EchoSpeech. C. The advantages of EchoSpeech. D. The operation of EchoSpeech. 15. What can we infer from the professor’s comment? A. The glasses will process our data. B. The glasses can protect our secrets. C. The glasses may replace smartphone. D. The glasses couldn’t control our lives. 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2.5分，共12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Hiking is a fun way to get some fresh air and exercise.

In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music. Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time, he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular. In 1928, Gershwin went to Paris. He applied to study composition with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger, but she rejected him. She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style. While there, Gershwin wrote An American in Paris. When it was first performed, critics(评论家) were divided over the music. Some called it happy and full of life, to others it was silly and boring. But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States. It still remains one of his most famous works. George Gershwin died in 1937, just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages. 4. Many of Gershwin's musical works were ______. A. written about New Yorkers B. composed for Paul Whiteman C. played mainly in the countryside D. performed in various ways 5. What do we know about the concert organized by Whiteman? A. It attracted more people to theatres B. It proved jazz could be serious music C. It made Gershwin leader of the orchestra D. It caused a debate among jazz musicians 6.

Most of our written communication is done through texting（发送信息）on mobile phones or typing on a keyboard. And voice recognition software is becoming more and more advanced－making even keyboard unnecessary! So, are handwriting skills important to your child? Actually handwriting is an exercise in eye-hand coordination（手眼协调）skills, which are connected with achievements in study. Scientists found that developing fine（精细的）visual-motor（视觉运动）skills in early childhood can predict not only writing success, but better performance in reading and math in elementary school. It was also found that kids who fail to write neatly and efficiently are often accused of being lazy. And this may affect their behavior and self-worth. Moreover, a study showed that when a group of children were asked to come up with ideas for an essay, the ones with better handwriting were more active and had quicker minds. In some ways, handwriting helps their brains’ development. The first attempts at writing can be challenging for preschool children whose necessary fine motor skills are not yet fully developed. But some skills to prepare for handwriting are simple to build at home and in preschool. Parents should provide lots of opportunities for kids to copy and draw shapes and simple pictures in early childhood before letters are introduced. Let your child copy your shapes in sand, or with chalk on a board before trying to draw shapes on their own. Encourage your child to spend less time on electronic devices and more time on activities to improve eye-hand coordination. Let’s face it－technology is certain to continue developing and more research is needed to find the best ways to teach handwriting to young children. But, there’s plenty of evidence that the handwriting practice young children get can provide a jump start in developing skills needed for a healthy and successful journey in school. 8. According to paragraph 1, handwriting is . A. easy to learn on a touch screen. B. more difficult than typewriting. C. used less for communication now. D. totally replaced by voice recognition software. 9. How does the author explain the benefits of handwriting? A. By stating some research finding. B. By giving examples of the kids around him. C. By quoting some news reports on handwriting. D. By analyzing data about pupils with good grades. 10. What does the author suggest parents do? A. Keep young children away from electronic devices. B. Teach preschool children to write letters with chalk. C. Encourage children to face writing challenges bravely. D. Help children get ready for handwriting before school. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. Does poor handwriting really mean being lazy? B. How can handwriting affect children’s self-confidence? C. Should handwriting be taken seriously in children’s growth? D. Should homework be done through handwriting or typewriting? 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲的是手写文字在数字时代是否还有必要，并给家长们提出了一些建议。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第一段“Most of our written communication is done through texting on mobile phones or typing on a keyboard. ”（ 我们大部分的书面交流都是通过手机短信或键盘打字来完成的。）可知，人们现在较少用手写的方式交流。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Scientists found that developing fine（精细的） visual-motor（视觉运动） skills in early childhood can lead to not only writing success, but better performance in reading and math in elementary school. It was also found that kids who fail to write neatly and efficiently are often accused of being lazy, and this may affect their behavior and self-worth. Moreover, a study showed that when a group of children were asked to come up with ideas for an article, the ones with better handwriting were more active and had quicker minds. ”（ 科学家们发现，在幼儿期发展良好的视觉运动技能不仅可以带来写作的成功，还可以提高小学的阅读和数学成绩。研究还发现，写作不整洁、效率不高的孩子经常被指责为懒惰，这可能会影响他们的行为和自我价值。此外，一项研究表明，当一组孩子被要求为一篇文章想出点子时，那些书写较好的孩子更活跃，思维也更快。）可推断，作者通过陈述一些研究结果来说明手写的好处。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“But some skills to prepare for handwriting are simple to build at home and in preschool. Parents should provide lots of opportunities for kids to copy and draw shapes and simple pictures in early childhood before letters are introduced.”（ 但是，在家里和幼儿园里，准备书写的一些技巧很简单。在儿童早期，在接触字母之前，父母应该为孩子们提供大量的机会来复制和绘制形状和简单的图片。让你的孩子在沙子上或黑板上用粉笔复制你的形状，然后再尝试自己绘制形状。）可知，作者建议家长帮助孩子在上学前做好书写的准备。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第二段第一句“So, are handwriting skills important to your child?” （那么，书写技能对你的孩子来说重要吗？）和最后一段“But, there' s plenty of evidence that the handwriting practice can provide young children with a good start in developing skills needed for a healthy and successful journey in school.”（ 但是，有大量证据表明，笔迹练习可以为幼儿提供一个良好的开端，帮助他们发展健康、成功的学习所需的技能。）可知，本文主要讲了在孩子成长过程中是否应该重视书写。故选C。 D They may look like ordinary glasses but they’re not. These trendy-looking glasses from researchers have a special ability and it doesn’t have to do with nearsightedness. Embedded on the bottom of the frames(框) are tiny speakers and microphones that can emit silent sound waves and receive echoes back. This ability comes in handy for detecting mouth movements, allowing the device to detect low-volume or even silent speech. That means you can whisper or mouth a command, and the glasses will pick it up like a lip reader. “For people who cannot vocalize sound, this silent speech technology could be an excellent input for a voice synthesizer(合成器),” said a doctoral student. The tech could also be used by its wearers to give silent commands to a paired device, like a laptop or a smartphone. It is proved that EchoSpeech could recognize 31 commands and connected data with error rates of less than 10 percent. The speakers and microphones are placed on different lenses on different sides of the face. When the speakers give off sound waves around 20 kilohertz, it travels in a path from one lens to the lips and then to the opposite lens. As the sound waves from the speakers reflect and diffract after hitting the lips, their distinct patterns are caught by microphones and used to make “echo profiles” for each phrase or command. It effectively works like a simple, mini sonar system. “Because the data is processed locally on your smartphone instead of being uploaded to the cloud, privacy-sensitive information never leaves your control,” a professor noted. Plus, audio data takes less bandwidth to transmit than videos or images, and takes less power to run as well. 12. What does the underlined word “emit” mean in Paragraph 1? A. Make out. B. Keep off. C. Send out. D. Take off. 13. What’s the special function of the glasses, according to the passage? A. Preventing eyes from sunlight. B. Offering help for nearsightedness. C. Getting whisper information. D. Receiving movement instruction. 14. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The effects of EchoSpeech. B. The parts of EchoSpeech. C. The advantages of EchoSpeech. D. The operation of EchoSpeech. 15. What can we infer from the professor’s comment? A. The glasses will process our data. B. The glasses can protect our secrets. C. The glasses may replace smartphone. D. The glasses couldn’t control our lives. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一款新眼镜的可以发出无声的声波并接收回声的特殊的功能及用途。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。由文章第一段中“Embedded on the bottom of the frames(框) are tiny speakers and microphones(框架底部嵌入了微型扬声器和麦克风)”可知，这种眼镜可以发送声波。A. Make out.理解，明白；B. Keep off.（使）不接近；C. Send out.发送；D.

That means you can whisper or mouth a command, and the glasses will pick it up like a lip reader.(这种能力在检测口腔运动时会派上用场，允许设备检测低音量甚至无声的语音。这意味着你可以轻声或用嘴发出指令，眼镜就会像读唇器一样接收到指令。)”可知，该眼镜可以检测低音量甚至无声的语音，故它是可以获取耳语信息的。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第四段“It is proved that EchoSpeech could recognize 31 commands and connected data with error rates of less than 10 percent. The speakers and microphones are placed on different lenses on different sides of the face. When the speakers give off sound waves around 20 kilohertz, it travels in a path from one lens to the lips and then to the opposite lens. As the sound waves from the speakers reflect and diffract after hitting the lips, their distinct patterns are caught by microphones and used to make “echo profiles” for each phrase or command. It effectively works like a simple, mini sonar system.(实验证明，EchoSpeech可以识别31条指令和连接数据，错误率低于10%。扬声器和麦克风被放置在面部不同侧面的不同镜片上。当扬声器发出大约20千赫兹的声波时，它会沿着一条路径从一个透镜传播到嘴唇，然后再传播到另一个透镜。当来自扬声器的声波在击中嘴唇后反射和衍射时，它们独特的模式被麦克风捕捉到，并用于为每个短语或命令制作“回声剖面”。它就像一个简单的迷你声纳系统。)”可知，这一段用大量的篇幅说明是这款眼镜的运行方式。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“Because the data is processed locally on your smartphone instead of being uploaded to the cloud, privacy-sensitive information never leaves your control,” a professor noted. Plus, audio data takes less bandwidth to transmit than videos or images, and takes less power to run as well.(一位教授指出:“因为数据是在你的智能手机上本地处理的，而不是上传到云端，所以隐私敏感信息永远不会离开你的控制。”此外，音频数据比视频或图像传输所需的带宽更少，运行所需的能量也更少。)”可知，因为数据不是上传到云端，故这种眼镜可以保护我们的秘密。故选B。 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2.5分，共12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Hiking is a fun way to get some fresh air and exercise.
