Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
The year 2023 marks the 102nd anniversary of Noether's ring theory, a branch of theoretical mathematics that is still fascinating and challenging numerous mathematicians today.
Noether was born in 1882 in Germany, whose father was a math professor, but it must have seemed unlikely to a young Noether that she would follow in his footsteps because women were banned from academia and few took classes at universities.After Noether graduated from a high school for girls, Erlangen University started to let women enroll.She signed up and earned her doctorate in mathematics, which should have been the end of her mathematical journey.Teaching at a university for women was still out of the question.But Noether stuck with mathematics anyway, staying in Erlangen and unofficially guiding doctoral students without pay.
In 1915, she applied for a position at the University of Gottingen.Bill Nicholl, the dean at the university, also a mathematician, was in favor of hiring Noether, although his argument was far from feminist (女权主义的).“The female brain is unsuitable for mathematical production,” he wrote, “but Noether stood out as one of the rare exceptions.”
Unfortunately for Noether, the Ministry of Education would not give the university permission to have a woman as their teacher.Noether stayed in Gottingen and taught courses listed under the name of a male faculty teacher.During those years, she kept doing research and made important contributions to theoretical physics and Einstein's theory of relativity.The university finally granted her lecturer status.Two years later, Noether published revolutionary discoveries in ring theory, which is the study of mathematical objects called rings.Noetherian rings show up all the time in modern mathematics.Mathematicians still use Noether's map today, not just in ring theory, but in other areas such as number theory and algebraic geometry.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
Leonardo da Vinci is often thought of mainly as an artist, with worldfamous works like The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa.1( ) But his notebooks, filled with his strange writing, show that his main interests were in engineering and technology.
2( ) If his pioneering work on anatomy (解剖学) is also taken into consideration, it is not hard to see why Leonardo is considered to be one of the greatest geniuses of all time.
Born in 1452 to a Florentine lawyer and a local village girl, Leonardo was given only a very basic education.After ten years in the workshop of the artist Verrocchio, he began to work for himself.The work he did shows an unbelievable combination of technical skill and very careful observation.3( )
At the age of thirty, he left his hometown and moved to Milan, where he spent seventeen years working for the Duke of Milan.4( ) In fact, his painting was increasingly influenced by his interest in mathematics.During this period, he painted The Last Supper and developed his ideas for chemical weapons (化学武器).
In 1506 he returned to Milan and became increasingly interested in science.5( ) He also studied many other animals, comparing their bodies to the human body.From then on, Leonardo spent the rest of his life mainly on his scientific studies.
