—______. Actually it has the opposite effect.
A.I can’t agree more B.That’s not the case
C.That’s it D.I’m glad to know that
【答案】B
【详解】考查情景交际。句意:——不吃早餐是减肥的好方法。——事实并非如此。实际上它有相反的效果。A. I can’t agree more我完全同意;B. That’s not the case事实并非如此;C. That’s it就是这样;D. I’m glad to know that听到这个我很高兴。根据上下句句意可知,此处为短句That’s not the case“事实并非如此”,满足句意要求。故选B项。

—I think we should ______ solving international dispute by negotiation instead of appealing to arms.
A.admit B.approach C.assess D.advocate
【答案】D

3.Jason is telling kids something interesting in the living room. He ______ have had a brilliant journey in Beijing.
A.must B.should C.could D.would
【答案】A
【详解】考查情态动词。句意:杰森正在客厅给孩子们讲一些有趣的事情。他在北京的旅行一定很愉快。根据上下句句意可知,此处为情态动词must+ have done表示“对过去事情的肯定推测”,此处表示“他在北京的旅行一定很愉快”,满足句意要求。故选A项。

6.______ going to study in the United States, Dahlia began to pack her luggage.
A.To approve of B.Approving of
C.Having approved of D.Having been approved of
【答案】D
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:被批准去美国留学后,达利娅开始收拾行李。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作状语,approve of和逻辑主语Dahlia为被动关系,所以为过去分词形式,结合approve of该动作先于began之前发生,所以此处为过去分词的完成式,即having been done。故选D项。
7.(原创题)Many young people, most _________ were well-educated, headed for remote regions to chase their dreams.
A.of which B.of them
C.of whom D.of those
【答案】C
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:许多年轻人,其中大多数受过良好教育,前往偏远地区追逐梦想。本题中含有一个定语从句,先行词是Many young people,关系代词whom指代先行词,在定语从句中作介词of的宾语。故C项正确。
【点睛】在非限制性定语从句中,先行词作为一个整体,表示整体中的一部分,即表示"部分与整体"的关系时,用…of which / whom表示,这时不能用whose来代替of which。表示所属关系时,of which/whom可以与whose互换。
一、表示整体中的部分。如:
1. The buses, most of which were already full, were surrounded by an angry crowd. 公共汽车大多数都已经挤满了人,它们被愤怒的人群包围着。
2. I picked up the apples, some of which were badly bruised. 我拣起那些苹果,其中有一些伤得很厉害。
3. I bought a dozen eggs, six of which broke when I dropped the box. 我买了一打鸡蛋,六个在我掉盒子时摔碎了。

5. The treasure some of which has been recovered, has been sent to the British Museum. 这些宝藏已被送往大英博物馆,其中有一些是失而复得的。
二、表示所属关系。如:
1. He’s written a book, the name of which I’ve forgotten. 他写了一本书,书名我忘了。
句中的the name of which="whose" name。
2. It was an agreement the details of which could not be altered. 这是一项细节不可更改的协定。
句中的the details of which="whose" details。
考点:考查定语从句
8.The unexpected race result had the crowd ________ and then the thunderous applause burst out.
A.on the edge of the seat B.ticking all the right boxes
C.in their own right D.holding their horses
【答案】A
【详解】考查固定短语辨析。句意:出乎意料的比赛结果让观众十分兴奋,然后爆发出雷鸣般的掌声。A. on the edge of the seat十分兴奋的,兴奋得坐不住的;B. ticking all the right boxes一切顺利;C. in their own right凭他们本身的实力;D. holding their horses不要着急。根据后文“nd then the thunderous applause burst out”指观众十分兴奋。故选A。
9.(改编题)Mr. Zhang, who is said to have moved to Beijing, _____ at No. 4 Middle School in our city for thirty years.
A.has taught B.is teaching C.has been reaching D.taught
【答案】D
【详解】考查一般过去时。句意:据说张先生已经搬到北京,他在我市第四中学任教三十年。根据定语从句who is said to have moved to Beijing可以判断,张先生现在在北京,不在此地。因此,他在我市第四中学教书是他在去北京之前的事情,应该用一般过去时。A和C都可以和段时间搭配,但强调的是现在的动作状态或结果,排除A/C。故选D。
10.Friends need to be frank with one another, so it is also possible and necessary to exchange ______ views in time.
A.essential B.potential C.controversial D.compulsory
【答案】C
【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意:朋友之间需要彼此坦诚,所以及时交换有争议的观点也是可能的,也是必要的。A. essential必要的;B. potential有潜力的;C. controversial有争议的;D. compulsory必须做的,强制的。根据句意可知,此处为形容词controversial“有争议的”作定语修饰views,满足句意要求。故选C项。
11.The number of firms selling smartphones in this region ______ since last year.
A.dropped B.was being dropped
C.have been dropping D.has dropped
【答案】D
【详解】考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:自去年以来,该地区销售智能手机的公司数量有所下降。分析句子可知,此处为谓语动词的填入,根据该句时间状语since last year可知,此处为现在完成时,主语The number of firms selling smartphones为“……的数量”表示单数意义名词,所以为动词三单形式。故选D项。
12.The exhibition tells us _____we should do something to stop air pollution.
A.where B.why
C.what D.which
【答案】B
【详解】考查宾语从句。句意:这个展览告诉我们为什么我们应该做一些事情来阻止空气污染。分析句子可知,本句为宾语从句,tell sb sth “ 告诉某人某事”, sth由句子来充当,从句中缺少表示原因的连接副词。故选择B。
13.When I entered the room, I found Emily seated quietly on the sofa, her eyes ______ on the storybook.
A.fixed B.fixing C.to fix D.to be fixed
【答案】A
【详解】考查独立主格结构。句意:当我走进房间时,我发现艾米丽静静地坐在沙发上,眼睛盯着故事书。her eyes为独立主语,此处为独立主格结构,其中的动词fix应为非谓语形式,her eyes和fix为被动关系,所以为过去分词形式。故选A项。

The funny thing about basically doing anything is that we typically know what to do. The hard thing is actually doing it, day after day after day. The problem isn’t knowledge. The problem is willpower. Hold that thought.
Last year a friend wanted to get in better shape, so he started the Hard 75 Challenge, which involves following a diet, working out twice a day for 45 minutes each session, drinking a gallon of water, reading 10 pages of a nonfiction personal development book, and taking a picture of yourself. Every day. For 75 straight days.
Fail to complete any of the above on any given day? Start over.
In many ways, Hard 75 is similar to a diet. As anyone who has tried knows, following a specific diet is hard. Temptation. Availability. Consistently making the right choices is hard.
The same is true for exercising outdoors. It’s hard to force yourself to go for a run when your day got away from you and it’s 8 p.m. and raining and 35 degrees. If you can pull off the Hard 75, that’s awesome.
But it’s really hard.
And it was really hard for my friend.
He started, got disappointed, got up the determination to start over, got disappointed, forced himself to start over… while he got in a little better shape, he didn’t make the progress he hoped for.
Then he took a different approach. Instead of following a strict diet, he just created a few simple rules. He wanted to eat healthier, so he cut out all “white” foods (breads, white rice, potatoes, crackers, added sugar). When he went out to eat, he avoided failing to find the “right” food by just choosing the healthiest option available.
And instead of following a specific exercise program, he just decided that he would always work out for at least 20 minutes every day. Most of the time he did longer workouts, but still: The only rule he had for himself was that he would work out for just at least 20 minutes a day. That way he never “failed,” never got disappointed, and never felt like he had to start over. As long as he got his 20, he was good.
The same approach applies to everything. In my case, I decided I needed to drink more water and less soda. So I decided I would always drink water with meals. Within a couple days, that habit became automatic.
Bottom line? Diets are bad. Having to rely on willpower is even worse.
Rules, on the other hand, are easy.
And great, especially when those rules help take you to the place you someday want to be.
41.We can learn about the Hard 75 Challenge that it ____.
A.lasts 75 days straight without any additional efforts
B.imposes demanding requirements on the participants
C.requires participants to exercise on hot and rainy days
D.aims to cultivate people’s ability to appreciate literature
42.The author’s friend failed to make the progress he hoped for because ____.
A.he was not determined enough B.he didn’t have enough knowledge
C.he made the wrong choices D.he followed a strict diet
43.What a different approach would the author’s friend took to keep fit?
A.Picking his own diet and always follow it. B.Eating the healthiest foods available.
C.Sticking to doing intense exercise indoors. D.Pushing himself to prolong daily workouts.
44.The author will probably disagree that ________.
A.in most cases we typically know what to do B.persisting in doing something daily is hard
C.we might well fail with stronger willpower D.some simple rules are easier to carry out
45.According to the passage, simple rules can ________.
A.help you achieve goals by making the habit stick B.encourage people to drink enough water
C.reverse the effect of relying on willpower D.prevent you from getting lost in a place
【答案】41.B 42.A 43.B 44.C 45.A

C
People may use the expression “birdbrain” in English to talk about someone who is stupid, but crows prove that this is unfair. Now it has been discovered that crows may understand analogies.
It was once thought that only humans could understand analogies, which help us to solve problems creatively, put things into categories, and make scientific discoveries.
To test this ability in animals, scientists do “relational matching-to-sample”(RMTS) tests, according to the IFL Science website. If a pair was AA, for example, then picking BB to match it would be correct. If the pair was CD, however, then EF would be correct.
Apes and monkeys have learned RMTS, but scientists wanted to know if crows could do it, too. An international team led by Edward Wasserman from the University of Iowa in the US first trained two hooded crows to match things by color, shape, and number in what is called “identity matching-to-sample (IMTS)”, then moved onto RMTS.
For the IMTS test, the birds were put in a cage with a plastic tray that had three cards and two cups in it. The card in the middle was the sample card. The cups on either side were covered with the other two cards: One was the same as the sample (in the color, shape, or number of shapes pictured), while the other wasn’t. The cup with the card that matched the sample card contained two worms to eat.
In the second part of the experiment, the birds were tested with relational matching pairs. A card with two same-sized circles, for example, meant they should pick the test card with two same-sized squares and not two different-sized circles. The birds did well in the more difficult test and picked the correct card more than three quarters of the time, Science News reports.
Wasserman was surprised that crows were able to solve the problem without any training in RMTS. “What the crows have done is extraordinary,” he said in a news release. “Honestly, if it was only by force that the crows showed this learning, then it would have been an impressive result. But this was spontaneous.”
So perhaps it’s time to stop saying “birdbrain” permanently!
46.Why does the author mention the expression “birdbrain” in the opening paragraph?
A.To get the reader interested in the origins of the expression.
B.To urge people to stop saying that birds are stupid.
C.To introduce the topic of Edward Wasserman and his experiments.
D.To introduce recent findings about crows’ intelligence.
47.Which of the following is TRUE about the tests on the hooded crows?
A.The birds did better in RMTS than in IMTS.
B.The birds were first made to do RMTS, then IMTS.
C.The birds picked almost all the correct cards in RMTS.
D.In the IMTS test, the birds needed to identify the sample card to get rewards.
48.In the RMTS test, if the birds were given the sample card with two same-sized triangles, they had to pick the test card with ________.
A.two same-sized circles B.one circle and one triangle
C.two different-sized circles D.two different-sized triangles
49.The underlined word “spontaneous” in the second-to-last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A.central B.creative C.natural D.predictable
50.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Monkeys Are Clever Than Crows B.Crows Show Cleverness
C.Crows Did Well in RMTS D.Don’t Look Down on Birds
【答案】46.D 47.D 48.A 49.C 50.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人们发现乌鸦可以理解类比,介绍了这项研究开展的过程以及专家对乌鸦学习能力的看法。
46.推理判断题。根据第一段“People may use the expression “birdbrain” in English to talk about someone who is stupid, but crows prove that this is unfair. Now it has been discovered that crows may understand analogies.(在英语中,人们可能会用“birdbrain”这个表达来形容某人很愚蠢,但是乌鸦证明了这是不公平的。现在人们发现,乌鸦可以理解类比)”以及第二段“It was once thought that only humans could understand analogies, which help us to solve problems creatively, put things into categories, and make scientific discoveries.(人们曾经认为只有人类才能理解类比,这有助于我们创造性地解决问题,将事物分类,并进行科学发现)”可推知,作者在开篇提到了“birdbrain”这个表达是为了引出关于乌鸦智力的最新发现。故选D。
47.细节理解题。根据倒数第四段“For the IMTS test, the birds were put in a cage with a plastic tray that had three cards and two cups in it. The card in the middle was the sample card. The cups on either side were covered with the other two cards: One was the same as the sample (in the color, shape, or number of shapes pictured), while the other wasn’t. The cup with the card that matched the sample card contained two worms to eat.(在IMTS测试中,鸟儿被放在一个有塑料托盘的笼子里,里面有三张卡片和两个杯子。中间的卡片是样品卡。两边的杯子里则放着另外两张卡片。其中一张与样本相同(颜色、形状或图片中的形状数量),而另一张则不相同。装有与样品卡相匹配的卡片的杯子里有两条虫子可以吃)”可知,D选项“在IMTS测试中,鸟儿需要识别样本卡才能获得奖励”正确。故选D。
48.细节理解题。根据第三段“To test this ability in animals, scientists do ‘relational matching-to-sample’ (RMTS) tests, according to the IFL Science website. If a pair was AA, for example, then picking BB to match it would be correct. If the pair was CD, however, then EF would be correct.( 据IFL科学网站报道,为了在动物身上测试这种能力,科学家们做了“与样本相关匹配”(RMTS)测试。例如,如果一对是AA,那么选择BB来匹配它将是正确的。如果这一对是CD,那么EF是正确的)”可知,在RMTS测试中,如果给鸟两个相同大小的三角形样本卡,它们必须选择两个相同大小的圆形测试卡。故选A。
49.词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Honestly, if it was only by force that the crows showed this learning, then it would have been an impressive result. But this was”可知,说实话,如果乌鸦只是通过武力来显示这种学习能力,那么这将是一个令人印象深刻的结果,but表示转折,说明这种能力不是靠武力而是自然拥有的。故画线词意思是“自然的”。A. central中心的;B. creative有创造力的;C. natural自然的;D. predictable可预测的。故选C。
50.主旨大意题。根据第一段“People may use the expression “birdbrain” in English to talk about someone who is stupid, but crows prove that this is unfair. Now it has been discovered that crows may understand analogies.(在英语中,人们可能会用“birdbrain”这个表达来形容某人很愚蠢,但是乌鸦证明了这是不公平的。 现在人们发现,乌鸦可以理解类比)”结合文章主要说明了人们发现乌鸦可以理解类比,介绍了这项研究开展的过程以及专家对乌鸦学习能力的看法。可知,B选项“乌鸦显示聪明”最符合文章标题。故选B。

(热点话题)Millions of older people, laborers and cancer sufferers could be unable to use their fingerprints to log in online bank accounts. Banks are spending millions of pounds on fingerprint technology to replace passwords. But banks may have to rethink these plans after warnings that the technology flawed (有缺陷). Representatives of major banks at a London conference were told many older people’s fingerprints are too faded for the machines to recognize.
John Daugman, a professor of computer vision and pattern recognition at the University of Cambridge, says, “Fingerprints can ‘rub off’ for many kinds of laborers—their skin becomes almost smooth. Gardeners often acquire a lot of wounds on their fingers, and people who work with chemicals, such as cleaners, also suffer damage of fingerprints.”
Jean Slocombe, a senior nurse at Cancer Research UK, says, “Some drugs can cause the skin of hands and feet to peel. In severe cases, the fingers can peel, and it’s possible that this could change a patient’s fingerprints. This should improve once treatment ceases, but severe scarring(伤疤) can change fingerprints in the long term.”
Fingerprints are generally considered more secure than passwords for several reasons. Unlike passwords, fingerprints cannot be easily copied, written down, shared, or guessed. Additionally, it is impossible to forget one’s fingerprints. Currently, banks offer customers the option to use a password or PIN (personal identification number) for online access to their money. However, technology experts have predicted that companies might do away with passwords entirely to decrease the risk of fraud (诈骗). Should this transition to fingerprint technology occur, there is a potential risk that millions of bank customers could find themselves unable to access their accounts.
Banks have tried other security measures, such as facial recognition—but fingerprint technology is often the best one, as it is fast and people are more familiar with it. Nick Dryden, a chief executive of technology company Sthaler, says, “Businesses like fingerprint technology because it’s fast.”
“There must always be a back-up so that if it doesn’t work, there is another way of paying, such as with a password.” Dryden adds that using the veins(静脉) in someone’s fingers to identify them is more secure and means people with faded prints will not be left behind as technology advances.
51.Which of the following is the critical flaw of using fingerprints to log into accounts?
A.Fingerprints can be easily stolen from photos.
B.Fingerprint recognition adapts to medical changes.
C.The application of fingerprint technology costs too much.
D.Elderly people’s fingerprints may be too faint for detection.
52.According to John Daugman, what causes unrecognizable fingerprints?
A.Excessive use of technology. B.Physical labor and natural aging.
C.Environmental exposure process. D.Lack of proper fingerprinting equipment.
53.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A.Experts recommend replacing passwords soon.
B.Fingerprints can totally avoid the risk of fraud.
C.Switching to fingerprints might lock out many customers.
D.Passwords and PINs are preferred by banks due to their simplicity.
54.Which is Dryden’s suggestion about fingerprint technology?
A.Using veins instead of fingerprints isn’t workable.
B.There must be other ways to get into bank accounts.
C.Its greatest advantage is its high speed of recognition.
D.Passwords are still the most reliable security measure now.
55.’What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Comparing password and fingerprint security.
B.Enhancing and upgrading bank security measures.
C.Presenting fingerprint technology challenges in banking.
D.Advancing fingerprint and facial recognition technology.

【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要描述了现在的银行在尝试采用安全系数高的指纹技术登录银行账户的过程中,因许多老年人、劳动者和癌症患者的指纹已无法识别,从而面临着许多困难和挑战。尽管目前有其他的登录方式可以选择,但是指纹登录仍被视为最佳选择,期待未来会有更加先进的技术帮助人们恢复淡化的指纹。
51.细节理解题。根据第一段“Representatives of major banks at a London conference were told many older people’s fingerprints are too faded for the machines to recognize.”(在伦敦举行的一次会议上,各大银行的代表被告知,许多老年人的指纹几近消失,机器无法识别。)可知,使用指纹登录银行账户的关键缺陷,就是老年人的指纹可能太微弱了而无法识别。故选D。
52.细节理解题。根据第二段John Daugman说的话“Fingerprints can ‘rub off’ for many kinds of laborers—their skin becomes almost smooth. Gardeners often acquire a lot of wounds on their fingers, and people who work with chemicals, such as cleaners, also suffer damage of fingerprints.”(对许多劳动者来说,指纹可以被“擦掉”——他们的皮肤变得几乎光滑。园丁的手指上经常会有很多伤口,而那些与化学品打交道的人,比如清洁剂,也会受到指纹的伤害。)可知,体力劳动和一些化学品的伤害导致皮肤自然老化,都会造成指纹淡化,无法识别。故选B。
53.细节理解题。根据第四段“Should this transition to fingerprint technology occur, there is a potential risk that millions of bank customers could find themselves unable to access their accounts.”(如果向指纹技术过渡,数百万银行客户可能会发现自己无法访问自己的账户。)可知,向指纹技术过渡可能会因无法访问账户,把很多客户拒之门外。故选C。
54.细节理解题。根据最后一段Dryden说的话“There must always be a back-up so that if it doesn’t work, there is another way of paying, such as with a password.”(必须总要有一个备用方案,这样如果它不起作用,还有另一种支付方式,比如使用密码。)可知,一定要有其它的备用方式进入银行账户支付。故选B。
55.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Banks are spending millions of pounds on fingerprint technology to replace passwords. But banks may have to rethink these plans after warnings that the technology flawed (有缺陷). ”(银行正在花费数百万英镑研发指纹技术来取代密码。但银行可能不得不重新考虑这些计划,因为有人警告说这项技术存在缺陷。)及全文内容可知,文章主要描述了银行在尝试采用指纹技术登录银行账户的过程中,因许多老年人、劳动者和癌症患者的指纹已无法识别,所面临的困难和挑战。故选C。

阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
In every gym class I've taken, I felt like the odd one out. Opening the door, I hesitantly asked, “Is this where the HIIT class is?” The instructor yelled, “Grab a dumbbell and yoga mat. We're late for warm-up!” Breathing heavily on the mat, I wasn't sure if I'd make it through the hour.
Glancing around the room, I seemed to be the only one struggling. Everyone else, in their tightly fitted gym wear and not a sign of sweat to be seen, looked as if they belonged. I, on the other hand, with my messy hair and oversized clothes, wondered why I had ever bothered coming.
Earlier that year, I had decided to give fitness a real shot. All my life, exercise had been a foreign concept and in school, gym class was a place of guaranteed embarrassment and humiliation.
I nervously showed up to my university gym for spin class (动感单车课程) on a Sunday morning. I had considered canceling multiple times, but I told myself that showing up was all that mattered.
The instructor was incredibly kind. Within minutes of seeing my weak form, he knew I was new to the class. He walked us through all the various positions on the bike multiple times.
The first time I tried to stand on the bike pedals, I felt my legs shake and immediately sat down. But with each class, my comfort on the bike grew and I became less focused on how I looked and more focused on looking inward. Whether I needed to think about something bugging me, dream about the future or just mindlessly pedal, spin class became my hour a week just for me.
The more I spun, the more I realized how powerful my body was. For what felt like the first time, I was proud of my body's capabilities.
After nine months of spinning, I wanted to challenge myself again. And that's how I found myself in the high-intensity class. If spin class got me used to moving my body, then HIIT class taught me that I have to continuously work to build my fitness and tackle my insecurities.
In all, what truly matters is showing up, not what you wear or your fitness abilities. Because once you show up, the rest gets easier, one sweaty adventure at a time.
56.Why did the author feel like the odd one out in the gym class?(no more than 10 words)
57.What does the underlined part mean in paragraph 3?(no more than 10 words)
58.What did the author realize about her body after attending spin class for nine months?(no more than 6 words)
59.Why did the author decide to challenge herself by attending a high-intensity class? (no more than 12 words)
60.What message does the author convey in the text? How does it inspire you?(no more than 25 words)
【答案】56.Because she was struggling more than others./Because she seemed to be the only one struggling. 57.I hadn't been good at/confident in/familiar with doing exercise. 58.That her body was capable./How powerful her body was. 59.Because she wanted to build her fitness and tackle her insecurities. 60.(Open)Showing up and making an effort is half the battle. It inspires me to work hard with perseverance despite difficulties in my studies.
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了作者从刚开始跟不上健身教练的进度到慢慢能掌握自己的身体,逐步进步的过程。
56.第二段提到“Glancing around the room, I seemed to be the only one struggling. Everyone else, in their tightly fitted gym wear and not a sign of sweat to be seen, looked as if they belonged.”(环顾房间,我似乎是唯一一个挣扎的人。其他人都穿着紧身的运动服,一点汗珠也没有,看起来就像属于这里一样。)作者来到健身房后发现每个人都穿着紧身运动服,在健身房里游刃有余,而自己却非常的挣扎,这让作者觉得自己在健身房里好像很奇怪的样子。故答案为:Because she was struggling more than others./Because she seemed to be the only one struggling.。
57.划线句后文提到“gym class was a place of guaranteed embarrassment and humiliation.”(在学校,体育课是一个保证尴尬和羞辱的地方)说明作者从上学开始对锻炼健身就不是很擅长,自己在运动的过程中也觉得很尴尬很羞辱。由此判断,划线部分意为“锻炼一直是一个陌生的概念”。故答案为:I hadn't been good at/confident in/familiar with doing exercise.。
58.第八段提到“After nine months of spinning, I wanted to challenge myself again. And that's how I found myself in the high-intensity class. If spin class got me used to moving my body, then HIIT class taught me that I have to continuously work to build my fitness and tackle my insecurities.”(练了九个月的单车后,我想再次挑战自己。这就是我在高强度课程中找到自己的方式。如果说动感单车课程让我习惯了运动身体,那么HIIT课程教会我必须不断地锻炼身体,解决不安全感。)作者练习了九个月的动感单车后,对自己身体的掌控更加熟练,也更能完成高强度的运动课程,说明作者的身体逐渐变得强大起来。故答案为:That her body was capable./How powerful her body was.。
59.第八段提到“If spin class got me used to moving my body, then HIIT class taught me that I have to continuously work to build my fitness and tackle my insecurities.”(如果说动感单车课程让我习惯了运动身体,那么HIIT课程教会我必须不断地锻炼身体,解决不安全感。)由此判断,作者参加高强度的课程是为了不断地锻炼身体,解决自己的不安全感。故答案为:Because she wanted to build her fitness and tackle her insecurities.。
60.文章第一段提到“Breathing heavily on the mat, I wasn't sure if I'd make it through the hour.”(我在垫子上喘着粗气,不知道自己能不能撑过这一小时。)刚开始的时候作者是一个不擅长运动的人,作者认为能够出现在健身房已经是一件非常了不起的事情了,但是在经过了9个月的运动锻炼之后,开始逐步适应自己的身体,并且能够进行高难度的动作,说明只要坚持努力就能有所改变。故答案为:Showing up and making an effort is half the battle. It inspires me to work hard with perseverance despite difficulties in my studies.

The funny thing about basically doing anything is that we typically know what to do.The hard thing is
actually doing it,day after day after day.The problem isn't knowledge.The problem is willpower.Hold that
thought.

Last year a friend wanted to get in better shape,so he started the Hard 75 Challenge,which involves
following a diet,working out twice a day for 45 minutes each session,drinking a gallon of water,reading 10 pages

of a nonfiction personal development book,and taking a picture of yourself.Every day.For 75 straight days.
Fail to complete any of the above on any given day?Start over.
In many ways,Hard 75 is similar to a diet.As anyone who has tried knows,following a specific diet is hard.
Temptation.Availability.Consistently making the right choices is hard.
The same is true for exercising outdoors.It's hard to force yourself to go for a run when your day got away
from you and it's 8 p.m.and raining and 35 degrees.If you can pull off the Hard 75,that's awesome.
But it's really hard.
And it was really hard for my friend
He started,got disappointed,got up the determination to start over,got disappointed,forced himself to start
over...while he got in a little better shape,he didn't make the progress he hoped for.
Then he took a different approach.Instead of following a strict diet,he just created a few simple rules.He
wanted to eat healthier,so he cut out all"white"foods (breads,white rice,potatoes,crackers,added sugar).When
he went out to eat,he avoided failing to find the"right"food by just choosing the healthiest option available.
And instead of following a specific exercise program,he just decided that he would always work out for at
least 20 minutes every day.Most of the time he did longer workouts,but still:The only rule he had for himself
was that he would work out for just at least 20 minutes a day.That way he never"failed,"never got disappointed,
and never felt like he had to start over.As long as he got his 20,he was good.
The same approach applies to everything.In my case,I decided I needed to drink more water and less soda.
So I decided I would always drink water with meals.Within a couple days,that habit became automatic.
Bottom line?Diets are bad.Having to rely on willpower is even worse.
Rules,on the other hand,are easy.
And great,especially when those rules help take you to the place you someday want to be.
41.We can learn about the Hard 75 Challenge that it
A.lasts 75 days straight without any additional efforts
B.imposes demanding requirements on the participants
C.requires participants to exercise on hot and rainy days
D.aims to cultivate people's ability to appreciate literature
42.The author's friend failed to make the progress he hoped for because
A.he was not determined enough
B.he didn't have enough knowledge
C.he made the wrong choices
D.he followed a strict diet
43.What a different approach would the author's friend took to keep fit?

People may use the expression"birdbrain in English to talk about someone who is stupid,but crows prove
that this is unfair.Now it has been discovered that crows may understand analogies.
It was once thought that only humans could understand analogies,which help us to solve problems
creatively,put things into categories,and make scientific discoveries.
To test this ability in animals,scientists do "relational matching-to-sample(RMTS)tests,according to the
IFL Science website.If a pair was AA,for example,then picking BB to match it would be correct.If the pair was
CD,however,then EF would be correct.
Apes and monkeys have learned RMTS,but scientists wanted to know if crows could do it,too.An
international team led by Edward Wasserman from the University of Iowa in the US first trained two hooded
crows to match things by color,shape,and number in what is called"identity matching-to-sample (IMTS)",then
moved onto RMTS.
For the IMTS test,the birds were put in a cage with a plastic tray that had three cards and two cups in it.
The card in the middle was the sample card.The cups on either side were covered with the other two cards:One
was the same as the sample (in the color,shape,or number of shapes pictured),while the other wasn't.The cup
with the card that matched the sample card contained two worms to eat.
In the second part of the experiment,the birds were tested with relational matching pairs.A card with two
same-sized circles,for example,meant they should pick the test card with two same-sized squares and not two
different-sized circles.The birds did well in the more difficult test and picked the correct card more than three
quarters of the time,Science News reports.
Wasserman was surprised that crows were able to solve the problem without any training in RMTS."What
the crows have done is extraordinary,"he said in a news release."Honestly,if it was only by force that the crows
试题第7页(共12页)
showed this learning,then it would have been an impressive result.But this was spontaneous."
So perhaps it's time to stop saying"birdbrain permanently!
46.Why does the author mention the expression"birdbrain"in the opening paragraph?
A.To get the reader interested in the origins of the expression.
B.To urge people to stop saying that birds are stupid.
C.To introduce the topic of Edward Wasserman and his experiments.
年
D.To introduce recent findings about crows'intelligence.
47.Which of the following is TRUE about the tests on the hooded crows?
张
A.The birds did better in RMTS than in IMTS
B.The birds were first made to do RMTS,then IMTS
C.The birds picked almost all the correct cards in RMTS.
D.In the IMTS test,the birds needed to identify the sample card to get rewards.

Fingerprints are generally considered more secure than passwords for several reasons.Unlike passwords,
fingerprints cannot be easily copied,written down,shared,or guessed.Additionally,it is impossible to forget one's

there is a potential risk that millions of bank customers could find themselves unable to access their accounts.

Banks have tried other security measures,such as facial recognition-but fingerprint technology is often the
best one,as it is fast and people are more familiar with it.Nick Dryden,a chief executive of technology company

"There must always be a back-up so that if it doesn't work,there is another way of paying,such as with a

In every gym class I've taken,I felt like the odd one out.Opening the door,I hesitantly asked,"Is this where
the HIIT class is?The instructor yelled,"Grab a dumbbell and yoga mat.We're late for warm-up!"Breathing
heavily on the mat,I wasn't sure if I'd make it through the hour.
Glancing around the room,I seemed to be the only one struggling.Everyone else,in their tightly fitted gym
wear and not a sign of sweat to be seen,looked as if they belonged.I,on the other hand,with my messy hair and
oversized clothes,wondered why I had ever bothered coming.
Earlier that year,I had decided to give fitness a real shot.All my life,exercise had been a foreign concept
and in school,gym class was a place of guaranteed embarrassment and humiliation.
I nervously showed up to my university gym for spin class(动感单车课程)on a Sunday morning..Ihad
considered canceling multiple times,but I told myself that showing up was all that mattered.
The instructor was incredibly kind.Within minutes of seeing my weak form,he knew I was new to the class.
He walked us through all the various positions on the bike multiple times.
The first time I tried to stand on the bike pedals,I felt my legs shake and immediately sat down.But with
each class,my comfort on the bike grew and I became less focused on how I looked and more focused on looking
inward.Whether I needed to think about something bugging me,dream about the future or just mindlessly pedal,
spin class became my hour a week just for me.
The more I spun,the more I realized how powerful my body was.For what felt like the first time,I was
proud of my body's capabilities.
After nine months of spinning,I wanted to challenge myself again.And that's how I found myself in the

high-intensity class.If spin class got me used to moving my body,then HIIT class taught me that I have to
continuously work to build my fitness and tackle my insecurities.
In all,what truly matters is showing up,not what you wear or your fitness abilities.Because once you show
up,the rest gets easier,one sweaty adventure at a time.

The funny thing about basically doing anything is that we typically know what to do. The hard thing is actually doing it, day after day after day. The problem isn’t knowledge. The problem is willpower. Hold that thought.
Last year a friend wanted to get in better shape, so he started the Hard 75 Challenge, which involves following a diet, working out twice a day for 45 minutes each session, drinking a gallon of water, reading 10 pages of a nonfiction personal development book, and taking a picture of yourself. Every day. For 75 straight days.
Fail to complete any of the above on any given day? Start over.
In many ways, Hard 75 is similar to a diet. As anyone who has tried knows, following a specific diet is hard. Temptation. Availability. Consistently making the right choices is hard.
The same is true for exercising outdoors. It’s hard to force yourself to go for a run when your day got away from you and it’s 8 p.m. and raining and 35 degrees. If you can pull off the Hard 75, that’s awesome.
But it’s really hard.
And it was really hard for my friend.
He started, got disappointed, got up the determination to start over, got disappointed, forced himself to start over… while he got in a little better shape, he didn’t make the progress he hoped for.
Then he took a different approach. Instead of following a strict diet, he just created a few simple rules. He wanted to eat healthier, so he cut out all “white” foods (breads, white rice, potatoes, crackers, added sugar). When he went out to eat, he avoided failing to find the “right” food by just choosing the healthiest option available.
And instead of following a specific exercise program, he just decided that he would always work out for at least 20 minutes every day. Most of the time he did longer workouts, but still: The only rule he had for himself was that he would work out for just at least 20 minutes a day. That way he never “failed,” never got disappointed, and never felt like he had to start over. As long as he got his 20, he was good.
The same approach applies to everything. In my case, I decided I needed to drink more water and less soda. So I decided I would always drink water with meals. Within a couple days, that habit became automatic.
Bottom line? Diets are bad. Having to rely on willpower is even worse.
Rules, on the other hand, are easy.
And great, especially when those rules help take you to the place you someday want to be.
41.We can learn about the Hard 75 Challenge that it ____.
A.lasts 75 days straight without any additional efforts
B.imposes demanding requirements on the participants
C.requires participants to exercise on hot and rainy days
D.aims to cultivate people’s ability to appreciate literature
42.The author’s friend failed to make the progress he hoped for because ____.
A.he was not determined enough B.he didn’t have enough knowledge
C.he made the wrong choices D.he followed a strict diet
43.What a different approach would the author’s friend took to keep fit?
A.Picking his own diet and always follow it. B.Eating the healthiest foods available.
C.Sticking to doing intense exercise indoors. D.Pushing himself to prolong daily workouts.
44.The author will probably disagree that ________.
A.in most cases we typically know what to do B.persisting in doing something daily is hard
C.we might well fail with stronger willpower D.some simple rules are easier to carry out
45.According to the passage, simple rules can ________.
A.help you achieve goals by making the habit stick B.encourage people to drink enough water
C.reverse the effect of relying on willpower D.prevent you from getting lost in a place
C
People may use the expression “birdbrain” in English to talk about someone who is stupid, but crows prove that this is unfair. Now it has been discovered that crows may understand analogies.
It was once thought that only humans could understand analogies, which help us to solve problems creatively, put things into categories, and make scientific discoveries.
To test this ability in animals, scientists do “relational matching-to-sample”(RMTS) tests, according to the IFL Science website. If a pair was AA, for example, then picking BB to match it would be correct. If the pair was CD, however, then EF would be correct.
Apes and monkeys have learned RMTS, but scientists wanted to know if crows could do it, too. An international team led by Edward Wasserman from the University of Iowa in the US first trained two hooded crows to match things by color, shape, and number in what is called “identity matching-to-sample (IMTS)”, then moved onto RMTS.
For the IMTS test, the birds were put in a cage with a plastic tray that had three cards and two cups in it. The card in the middle was the sample card. The cups on either side were covered with the other two cards: One was the same as the sample (in the color, shape, or number of shapes pictured), while the other wasn’t. The cup with the card that matched the sample card contained two worms to eat.
In the second part of the experiment, the birds were tested with relational matching pairs. A card with two same-sized circles, for example, meant they should pick the test card with two same-sized squares and not two different-sized circles. The birds did well in the more difficult test and picked the correct card more than three quarters of the time, Science News reports.
Wasserman was surprised that crows were able to solve the problem without any training in RMTS. “What the crows have done is extraordinary,” he said in a news release. “Honestly, if it was only by force that the crows showed this learning, then it would have been an impressive result. But this was spontaneous.”
So perhaps it’s time to stop saying “birdbrain” permanently!
46.Why does the author mention the expression “birdbrain” in the opening paragraph?
A.To get the reader interested in the origins of the expression.
B.To urge people to stop saying that birds are stupid.
C.To introduce the topic of Edward Wasserman and his experiments.
D.To introduce recent findings about crows’ intelligence.
47.Which of the following is TRUE about the tests on the hooded crows?
A.The birds did better in RMTS than in IMTS.
B.The birds were first made to do RMTS, then IMTS.
C.The birds picked almost all the correct cards in RMTS.
D.In the IMTS test, the birds needed to identify the sample card to get rewards.
48.In the RMTS test, if the birds were given the sample card with two same-sized triangles, they had to pick the test card with ________.
A.two same-sized circles B.one circle and one triangle
C.two different-sized circles D.two different-sized triangles
49.The underlined word “spontaneous” in the second-to-last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A.central B.creative C.natural D.predictable
50.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Monkeys Are Clever Than Crows B.Crows Show Cleverness
C.Crows Did Well in RMTS D.Don’t Look Down on Birds
D
(热点话题)Millions of older people, laborers and cancer sufferers could be unable to use their fingerprints to log in online bank accounts. Banks are spending millions of pounds on fingerprint technology to replace passwords. But banks may have to rethink these plans after warnings that the technology flawed (有缺陷). Representatives of major banks at a London conference were told many older people’s fingerprints are too faded for the machines to recognize.
John Daugman, a professor of computer vision and pattern recognition at the University of Cambridge, says, “Fingerprints can ‘rub off’ for many kinds of laborers—their skin becomes almost smooth. Gardeners often acquire a lot of wounds on their fingers, and people who work with chemicals, such as cleaners, also suffer damage of fingerprints.”
Jean Slocombe, a senior nurse at Cancer Research UK, says, “Some drugs can cause the skin of hands and feet to peel. In severe cases, the fingers can peel, and it’s possible that this could change a patient’s fingerprints. This should improve once treatment ceases, but severe scarring(伤疤) can change fingerprints in the long term.”
Fingerprints are generally considered more secure than passwords for several reasons. Unlike passwords, fingerprints cannot be easily copied, written down, shared, or guessed. Additionally, it is impossible to forget one’s fingerprints. Currently, banks offer customers the option to use a password or PIN (personal identification number) for online access to their money. However, technology experts have predicted that companies might do away with passwords entirely to decrease the risk of fraud (诈骗). Should this transition to fingerprint technology occur, there is a potential risk that millions of bank customers could find themselves unable to access their accounts.
Banks have tried other security measures, such as facial recognition—but fingerprint technology is often the best one, as it is fast and people are more familiar with it. Nick Dryden, a chief executive of technology company Sthaler, says, “Businesses like fingerprint technology because it’s fast.”
“There must always be a back-up so that if it doesn’t work, there is another way of paying, such as with a password.” Dryden adds that using the veins(静脉) in someone’s fingers to identify them is more secure and means people with faded prints will not be left behind as technology advances.
51.Which of the following is the critical flaw of using fingerprints to log into accounts?
A.Fingerprints can be easily stolen from photos.
B.Fingerprint recognition adapts to medical changes.
C.The application of fingerprint technology costs too much.
D.Elderly people’s fingerprints may be too faint for detection.
52.According to John Daugman, what causes unrecognizable fingerprints?
A.Excessive use of technology. B.Physical labor and natural aging.
C.Environmental exposure process. D.Lack of proper fingerprinting equipment.
53.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A.Experts recommend replacing passwords soon.
B.Fingerprints can totally avoid the risk of fraud.
C.Switching to fingerprints might lock out many customers.
D.Passwords and PINs are preferred by banks due to their simplicity.
54.Which is Dryden’s suggestion about fingerprint technology?
A.Using veins instead of fingerprints isn’t workable.
B.There must be other ways to get into bank accounts.
C.Its greatest advantage is its high speed of recognition.
D.Passwords are still the most reliable security measure now.
55.’What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Comparing password and fingerprint security.
B.Enhancing and upgrading bank security measures.
C.Presenting fingerprint technology challenges in banking.
D.Advancing fingerprint and facial recognition technology.

阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
In every gym class I've taken, I felt like the odd one out. Opening the door, I hesitantly asked, “Is this where the HIIT class is?” The instructor yelled, “Grab a dumbbell and yoga mat. We're late for warm-up!” Breathing heavily on the mat, I wasn't sure if I'd make it through the hour.
Glancing around the room, I seemed to be the only one struggling. Everyone else, in their tightly fitted gym wear and not a sign of sweat to be seen, looked as if they belonged. I, on the other hand, with my messy hair and oversized clothes, wondered why I had ever bothered coming.
Earlier that year, I had decided to give fitness a real shot. All my life, exercise had been a foreign concept and in school, gym class was a place of guaranteed embarrassment and humiliation.
I nervously showed up to my university gym for spin class (动感单车课程) on a Sunday morning. I had considered canceling multiple times, but I told myself that showing up was all that mattered.
The instructor was incredibly kind. Within minutes of seeing my weak form, he knew I was new to the class. He walked us through all the various positions on the bike multiple times.
The first time I tried to stand on the bike pedals, I felt my legs shake and immediately sat down. But with each class, my comfort on the bike grew and I became less focused on how I looked and more focused on looking inward. Whether I needed to think about something bugging me, dream about the future or just mindlessly pedal, spin class became my hour a week just for me.
The more I spun, the more I realized how powerful my body was. For what felt like the first time, I was proud of my body's capabilities.
After nine months of spinning, I wanted to challenge myself again. And that's how I found myself in the high-intensity class. If spin class got me used to moving my body, then HIIT class taught me that I have to continuously work to build my fitness and tackle my insecurities.
In all, what truly matters is showing up, not what you wear or your fitness abilities. Because once you show up, the rest gets easier, one sweaty adventure at a time.
56.Why did the author feel like the odd one out in the gym class?(no more than 10 words)
57.What does the underlined part mean in paragraph 3?(no more than 10 words)
58.What did the author realize about her body after attending spin class for nine months?(no more than 6 words)
59.Why did the author decide to challenge herself by attending a high-intensity class? (no more than 12 words)
60.What message does the author convey in the text? How does it inspire you?(no more than 25 words)

My Weekend
Last Tuesday, our class organized a volunteer activity where we visited the kitchen of our school dining hall and helped do some cleaning there.
At 9 a.m., we got there and received a warm welcome. When we visited the kitchen, cooks gave us a description of the things they use every day. We helped them prepare food for lunch and clean up the dining hall. Then we had lunch together and gave them the presents we had prepared. This activity ended at about three in the afternoon.
The cooks make many delicious dishes for us every day and we should care about and respect them.

The funny thing about basically doing anything is that we typically know what to do. The hard thing is actually doing it, day after day after day. The problem isn’t knowledge. The problem is willpower. Hold that thought.
Last year a friend wanted to get in better shape, so he started the Hard 75 Challenge, which involves following a diet, working out twice a day for 45 minutes each session, drinking a gallon of water, reading 10 pages of a nonfiction personal development book, and taking a picture of yourself. Every day. For 75 straight days.
Fail to complete any of the above on any given day? Start over.
In many ways, Hard 75 is similar to a diet. As anyone who has tried knows, following a specific diet is hard. Temptation. Availability. Consistently making the right choices is hard.
The same is true for exercising outdoors. It’s hard to force yourself to go for a run when your day got away from you and it’s 8 p.m. and raining and 35 degrees. If you can pull off the Hard 75, that’s awesome.
But it’s really hard.
And it was really hard for my friend.
He started, got disappointed, got up the determination to start over, got disappointed, forced himself to start over… while he got in a little better shape, he didn’t make the progress he hoped for.
Then he took a different approach. Instead of following a strict diet, he just created a few simple rules. He wanted to eat healthier, so he cut out all “white” foods (breads, white rice, potatoes, crackers, added sugar). When he went out to eat, he avoided failing to find the “right” food by just choosing the healthiest option available.
And instead of following a specific exercise program, he just decided that he would always work out for at least 20 minutes every day. Most of the time he did longer workouts, but still: The only rule he had for himself was that he would work out for just at least 20 minutes a day. That way he never “failed,” never got disappointed, and never felt like he had to start over. As long as he got his 20, he was good.
The same approach applies to everything. In my case, I decided I needed to drink more water and less soda. So I decided I would always drink water with meals. Within a couple days, that habit became automatic.
Bottom line? Diets are bad. Having to rely on willpower is even worse.
Rules, on the other hand, are easy.
And great, especially when those rules help take you to the place you someday want to be.
41.We can learn about the Hard 75 Challenge that it ____.
A.lasts 75 days straight without any additional efforts
B.imposes demanding requirements on the participants
C.requires participants to exercise on hot and rainy days
D.aims to cultivate people’s ability to appreciate literature
42.The author’s friend failed to make the progress he hoped for because ____.
A.he was not determined enough B.he didn’t have enough knowledge
C.he made the wrong choices D.he followed a strict diet
43.What a different approach would the author’s friend took to keep fit?
A.Picking his own diet and always follow it. B.Eating the healthiest foods available.
C.Sticking to doing intense exercise indoors. D.Pushing himself to prolong daily workouts.
44.The author will probably disagree that ________.
A.in most cases we typically know what to do B.persisting in doing something daily is hard
C.we might well fail with stronger willpower D.some simple rules are easier to carry out
45.According to the passage, simple rules can ________.
A.help you achieve goals by making the habit stick B.encourage people to drink enough water
C.reverse the effect of relying on willpower D.prevent you from getting lost in a place
C
People may use the expression “birdbrain” in English to talk about someone who is stupid, but crows prove that this is unfair. Now it has been discovered that crows may understand analogies.
It was once thought that only humans could understand analogies, which help us to solve problems creatively, put things into categories, and make scientific discoveries.
To test this ability in animals, scientists do “relational matching-to-sample”(RMTS) tests, according to the IFL Science website. If a pair was AA, for example, then picking BB to match it would be correct. If the pair was CD, however, then EF would be correct.
Apes and monkeys have learned RMTS, but scientists wanted to know if crows could do it, too. An international team led by Edward Wasserman from the University of Iowa in the US first trained two hooded crows to match things by color, shape, and number in what is called “identity matching-to-sample (IMTS)”, then moved onto RMTS.
For the IMTS test, the birds were put in a cage with a plastic tray that had three cards and two cups in it. The card in the middle was the sample card. The cups on either side were covered with the other two cards: One was the same as the sample (in the color, shape, or number of shapes pictured), while the other wasn’t. The cup with the card that matched the sample card contained two worms to eat.
In the second part of the experiment, the birds were tested with relational matching pairs. A card with two same-sized circles, for example, meant they should pick the test card with two same-sized squares and not two different-sized circles. The birds did well in the more difficult test and picked the correct card more than three quarters of the time, Science News reports.
Wasserman was surprised that crows were able to solve the problem without any training in RMTS. “What the crows have done is extraordinary,” he said in a news release. “Honestly, if it was only by force that the crows showed this learning, then it would have been an impressive result. But this was spontaneous.”
So perhaps it’s time to stop saying “birdbrain” permanently!
46.Why does the author mention the expression “birdbrain” in the opening paragraph?
A.To get the reader interested in the origins of the expression.
B.To urge people to stop saying that birds are stupid.
C.To introduce the topic of Edward Wasserman and his experiments.
D.To introduce recent findings about crows’ intelligence.
47.Which of the following is TRUE about the tests on the hooded crows?
A.The birds did better in RMTS than in IMTS.
B.The birds were first made to do RMTS, then IMTS.
C.The birds picked almost all the correct cards in RMTS.
D.In the IMTS test, the birds needed to identify the sample card to get rewards.
48.In the RMTS test, if the birds were given the sample card with two same-sized triangles, they had to pick the test card with ________.
A.two same-sized circles B.one circle and one triangle
C.two different-sized circles D.two different-sized triangles
49.The underlined word “spontaneous” in the second-to-last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A.central B.creative C.natural D.predictable
50.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Monkeys Are Clever Than Crows B.Crows Show Cleverness
C.Crows Did Well in RMTS D.Don’t Look Down on Birds
D
(热点话题)Millions of older people, laborers and cancer sufferers could be unable to use their fingerprints to log in online bank accounts. Banks are spending millions of pounds on fingerprint technology to replace passwords. But banks may have to rethink these plans after warnings that the technology flawed (有缺陷). Representatives of major banks at a London conference were told many older people’s fingerprints are too faded for the machines to recognize.
John Daugman, a professor of computer vision and pattern recognition at the University of Cambridge, says, “Fingerprints can ‘rub off’ for many kinds of laborers—their skin becomes almost smooth. Gardeners often acquire a lot of wounds on their fingers, and people who work with chemicals, such as cleaners, also suffer damage of fingerprints.”
Jean Slocombe, a senior nurse at Cancer Research UK, says, “Some drugs can cause the skin of hands and feet to peel. In severe cases, the fingers can peel, and it’s possible that this could change a patient’s fingerprints. This should improve once treatment ceases, but severe scarring(伤疤) can change fingerprints in the long term.”
Fingerprints are generally considered more secure than passwords for several reasons. Unlike passwords, fingerprints cannot be easily copied, written down, shared, or guessed. Additionally, it is impossible to forget one’s fingerprints. Currently, banks offer customers the option to use a password or PIN (personal identification number) for online access to their money. However, technology experts have predicted that companies might do away with passwords entirely to decrease the risk of fraud (诈骗). Should this transition to fingerprint technology occur, there is a potential risk that millions of bank customers could find themselves unable to access their accounts.
Banks have tried other security measures, such as facial recognition—but fingerprint technology is often the best one, as it is fast and people are more familiar with it. Nick Dryden, a chief executive of technology company Sthaler, says, “Businesses like fingerprint technology because it’s fast.”
“There must always be a back-up so that if it doesn’t work, there is another way of paying, such as with a password.” Dryden adds that using the veins(静脉) in someone’s fingers to identify them is more secure and means people with faded prints will not be left behind as technology advances.
51.Which of the following is the critical flaw of using fingerprints to log into accounts?
A.Fingerprints can be easily stolen from photos.
B.Fingerprint recognition adapts to medical changes.
C.The application of fingerprint technology costs too much.
D.Elderly people’s fingerprints may be too faint for detection.
52.According to John Daugman, what causes unrecognizable fingerprints?
A.Excessive use of technology. B.Physical labor and natural aging.
C.Environmental exposure process. D.Lack of proper fingerprinting equipment.
53.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A.Experts recommend replacing passwords soon.
B.Fingerprints can totally avoid the risk of fraud.
C.Switching to fingerprints might lock out many customers.
D.Passwords and PINs are preferred by banks due to their simplicity.
54.Which is Dryden’s suggestion about fingerprint technology?
A.Using veins instead of fingerprints isn’t workable.
B.There must be other ways to get into bank accounts.
C.Its greatest advantage is its high speed of recognition.
D.Passwords are still the most reliable security measure now.
55.’What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Comparing password and fingerprint security.
B.Enhancing and upgrading bank security measures.
C.Presenting fingerprint technology challenges in banking.
D.Advancing fingerprint and facial recognition technology.

阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
In every gym class I've taken, I felt like the odd one out. Opening the door, I hesitantly asked, “Is this where the HIIT class is?” The instructor yelled, “Grab a dumbbell and yoga mat. We're late for warm-up!” Breathing heavily on the mat, I wasn't sure if I'd make it through the hour.
Glancing around the room, I seemed to be the only one struggling. Everyone else, in their tightly fitted gym wear and not a sign of sweat to be seen, looked as if they belonged. I, on the other hand, with my messy hair and oversized clothes, wondered why I had ever bothered coming.
Earlier that year, I had decided to give fitness a real shot. All my life, exercise had been a foreign concept and in school, gym class was a place of guaranteed embarrassment and humiliation.
I nervously showed up to my university gym for spin class (动感单车课程) on a Sunday morning. I had considered canceling multiple times, but I told myself that showing up was all that mattered.
The instructor was incredibly kind. Within minutes of seeing my weak form, he knew I was new to the class. He walked us through all the various positions on the bike multiple times.
The first time I tried to stand on the bike pedals, I felt my legs shake and immediately sat down. But with each class, my comfort on the bike grew and I became less focused on how I looked and more focused on looking inward. Whether I needed to think about something bugging me, dream about the future or just mindlessly pedal, spin class became my hour a week just for me.
The more I spun, the more I realized how powerful my body was. For what felt like the first time, I was proud of my body's capabilities.
After nine months of spinning, I wanted to challenge myself again. And that's how I found myself in the high-intensity class. If spin class got me used to moving my body, then HIIT class taught me that I have to continuously work to build my fitness and tackle my insecurities.
In all, what truly matters is showing up, not what you wear or your fitness abilities. Because once you show up, the rest gets easier, one sweaty adventure at a time.
