Helping the butter flies Organizers created educational panels in English and Spanish explaining the butterflies' annual traveling and their trouble.The signs also outline ways travelers can help the butterflies recover,such as by supporting chemical-free farms and planting native nectar(花蜜)gardens. Why butterflies fly to the California coast Many stops in Pismo State Beach Monarch Butterfly Grove and Andrew Molera State Park,are overwintering sites where,from October to February,travelers can see thousands of butterflies gathering in forests in areas with mild temperatures,dappled (sunlight,high dampness,and little to no wind Other sites,like the San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden and Avila Valley Bam,grow flowers that provide sugary,high-calorie food for the butterflies to eat.Butterflies setting here demonstrate how vital nectarine plants are to their survival. How to explore the Western Monarch Trail The butterflies' behavior varies it different times of day and depending on the weather.In the mornings,while temperatures are still cool,step out of the cabin (in the Fernwood Rcsort where you stay overnight,you’ll find many butterflies hinging together on the branches and trunks of trees at the overwintering sites.As the day starts to heat up—typically by late morning or early afternoon-you'll be amazed at the phenomenon"sunburst"-the butterflies start flying around in search of nearby nectar.Keep your eyes skyward.Don't grab your camera.Just be in the moment. 21.What's the Western Monarch Trail initiative aimed at?

When the clothing factory closed down in the late 2000s,she became a full-time recycler,picking up cans and bottles to make ends meat Marin's story is not unique.Millions around the world make a living from picking through waste and reselling it-a vital role that keeps waste manageable.In New York City,the administrative department collects only about 28 percent of the cans that could be recycled Rubbish collectors keep millions of additional recyclables out of landfills every year. Yet collectors are ruled out by government policies.The United States Supreme Court in 1988 stated that household garbage is public property on it’s on the street That enables police to search rubbish for evidence,but that protection hasn't always been extended to recyclers.And in places like New York City,which is testing city-owned locked containers to hide garbage from rats,containers are made clearly inaccessible for collectors. "There's value in the waste,and we feel that value should belong to the people,not the city or the corporations,"says Ryan Castalia,director of a nonprofit recycling and community center in Brooklyn. Recognized or not,waste pickers have long been treated with disrespect.Marin recalls art occasion when someone living next to a building where she was collecting cans threw water at her."Because I recycle doesn't mean I am less of a person than anyone else,"she says. Some governments are starting to realize that protecting the environment and humanity go hand in hand.The United Nation's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development,for example,calls for an end to poverty and all the risks it brings. 24.What is he author's purpose of telling about Marin? A.To highlight waste collectors' role. B.To reflect laid-off workers' hardship. C.To praise her devotion to her daughter. D.To show the seriousness of unemployment. 25.How does the author show the importance of waste pickers’ work? A.By contrasting. B.By citing reference. C.By giving definitions. D.By cause-effect analysis. 26.What would Marin agree with? A.Business is business. B.No job is noble or humble. C.The early bird catches worms. D.One good turn deserves another. 27.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.How can we end poverty? B.Who owns our garbage? C.Who takes blame for waste? D.How should we recycle rubbish? 【答案】AABB 【主旨大意】这是一篇夹叙夹议文，本文以城市拾荒者Marin的故事贯穿全文，讲到了城市拾荒者的重要性以及城市拾荒者受到的歧视，比如不被尊重以及政府相关部门声称垃圾属于公共财产，不得随意捡拾等。好在一些政府意识到环保和人权保护可以携手并进。 24.【答案】A 【解析】本题属于推断题之细节判断，考查推断隐含意义的能力。解题步骤：文章第三段Marin's story is not unique.Millions around the world make a living from picking through waste and reselling it-a vital role that keeps waste manageable.可知，世界上还有很多和Marin一样的拾荒者，他们在让垃圾可控方面起着极其重要的作用。由此可知，作者提到Marin的故事是为了说明城市拾荒者的作用，故选A。 25.【答案】A 【解析】本题属于推断题。解题步骤：文章第三段“the administrative department collects only about 28 percent of the cans that could be recycled Rubbish collectors keep millions of additional recyclables out of landfills. ”可知，本段通过将纽约市相关政府部门收集的垃圾数量和城市拾荒者捡拾的垃圾数量进行对比，来说明城市拾荒者的重要性，故选A。 26.【答案】B 【解析】本题属于作者观点态度题。解题步骤：根据第六段“Because I recycle doesn't mean I am less of a person than anyone else,”可知，Marin认为不能因为她拾荒就认为自己低人一等。由此可知，Marin应该会同意“工作没有贵贱之分”的观点，故选B。 27.【答案】B 【解析】本题属于主旨题之篇章主旨，考查理解主旨要义的能力。解题步骤：本文第一、二段讲述了Marin开始拾荒的原因；第三段以纽约市为例讲述了城市拾荒者的重要性；第四段讲到了美国联邦最高法院规定，家庭垃圾一旦出现在街上，就属于公共财产；第五段援引Ryan Castalia的话来讨论城市垃圾的归属；第六段讲到了Marin遭遇的一次不被尊重的经历；最后一段则讲到了其实环保和人权保护可以携手并进。综合以上可知，本文以一个城市拾荒者Marin的故事贯穿全文来探讨城市垃圾的归属问题，故选B。 C The greatest irony (讽刺)of the world-wide celebrations held in 2012 to honour the 200th anniversary of the first edition of the Grimms' Hausmarchen involves the discovery that most people really don't know the original Grims' tales published in 1812. If we return to take a closer look at the first edition,we'll find it was this edition that inspired scholars of folk culture throughout Europe to gather tales from the oral tradition and preserve them for future generations. When the Grimms Jacob and Wilhelm began collecting all kinds of folk tales and songs at the beginning of the 19th century,what attracted them to concentrate on old German literature was a belief that the most natural and pure forms of culture were to be located in the past,while modern literature,even though it might be remarkably rich,was artificial and thus could not express the genuine quality of folk culture that originated naturally from people's experiences and bound the people together.Broadly speaking.the Grimms sought to collect and preserve ancient things consisting of tales,songs and documents.They intended to demonstrate bow natural language,originating from the needs and customs of the common people,created genuine bonds and helped form civilized communities. Turing to the first edition a reader might notice that,totally unlike the final edition of 1857,the first edition collects more genuine folk tales,keeping spoken and raw contents,despite the fact that the language is not as pleasing as that in later revised versions.For instance,Snow White's mother,not her stepmother,wants to kill the beautiful girl out of envy.The storytellers do not beat about the bush and they tell the truths they know,engaging people to learn from symbols how to engage their realities,even though magic,incredible transformation and cruelty are involved. Lastly the Grimms’ little-known first edition reveals forgotten voices that are actually deep within us.Therefore,the irresistibility of the Grimms' tales are that really not theirs,but ours. 28.According to the author,why should we rediscover the Grimms' first edition? A.To explore its origin. B.To appreciate is significance C.To honour its 200th anniversary. D.To remember the Brothers Grimm. 29.What is paragraph3 of the text mainly about? A.The quality of the folk culture. B.The contents of the first edition. C.The feature of the old German literature. D.The motivation of the Grimms collecting tales. 30.What can we learn about Snow White in the first edition? A.It is loosely based on the folk tale. B.It instructs readers to integrate into life. It is appealing for its beautiful language. D.It exposes envy and cruelty of the stepmother. 31.What can we infer about the Brothers Grimm from the text? A.They were collectors of antiques. B.They kept their style in later editions. C.They thought highly of modem literature. D.They were pioneers in preserving folk culture. 答案：【BDBD】 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。在2012年为纪念《格林童话》第一版出版200周年而举行的全球庆祝活动，最具讽刺意味的是，人们发现大多数人并不知道1812年出版的原著。 28.推理判断题。根据文章第二段If we return to take a closer look at the first edition,we'll find it was this edition that inspired scholars of folk culture throughout Europe to gather tales from the oral tradition and preserve them for future generations..(如果我f们回过头来仔细看看第一版，我们会发现正是这个版本激励了整个欧洲的民间文化学者从口头传统中收集故事，并为后代保存下来。)“可知，《格林童话》第一版激励了整个欧洲的民间文化者从口头传统中收集故事，并为后代保存下来，意义非凡。可推断，重新发现《格林童话》的第一版是为了欣赏它的重要性。故选B。 29.主旨大意题。根据文章第三段第一句When the Grimms Jacob and Wilhelm began collecting al kinds of folk tales and songs at the beginning of the 19th century.what attracted them to concentrate on old German literature was a belief that the most natural and pure forms of culture were to be located in the past, while modern literature,even though it might be remarkably rich,was artificial and thus could not express the genuine quality of folk culture that originated naturally from people's experiences and bound the people together，。(当格林兄弟雅各布和威廉在19世纪初开始收集各种民间故事和歌曲时，吸引他们专注于德国古代文学的是一种信念，即最自然、最纯粹的文化形式应该位于过去，而现代文学，即使它可能非常丰富，是人为的，因此不能表达民间文化的真实品质，这种文化自然地起源于人们的经历，并将人们联系在一起。)可知，该段主要讲述的是格林收集故事的动机。故选D。 30.细节理解题。根据文章第四段后两句"For instance,Snow White's mother,not her stepmother, wants to kill the beautiful girl out of envy.The storytellers do not beat about the bush and they tell the truths they know,engaging people to learn from symbols how to engage their realities,even though magic, incredible transformation and cruelty are involved. 如，白雪公主的母亲，而不是她的继母，出于嫉妒想要杀死这个美丽的女孩。讲故事的人不会拐弯抹角，他们讲的是他们知道的真相，让人们从象征中学习如何融入现实，尽管其中涉及到魔法、令人难以置信的转变和残酷。)”可知，在《格林童话》第一版中我们可以了解到关于白雪公主的故事是为了引导读者融入生活。故选B。 31. 推理判断题。根据文章第二段If we return to take a closer look at the first edition,we'll find it was this edition that inspired scholars of folk culture throughout Europe to gather tales from the oral tradition and preserve them for future generations.(如果我们回过头来仔细看看第一版，我们会发现正是这个版本激励了整个欧洲的民间文化学者从口头传统中收集故事，并为后代保存下来。)“可知，《格林童话》第一版激励了整个欧洲的民间文化者从口头传统中收集故事，并为后代保存下来，意义非凡。可推断，格林兄弟是保护民间文化的先锋。故选D。 D Albert Einstein's 1915 masterpiece The Foundation of the General Theory of Relativity is the first and still the best introduction to the subject,but it probably wouldn't be publishable in a scientific journal today. Why not?After all,it undoubtedly would pass the tests of correctness and significance.And while it's believed that the paper was incomprehensible(费解的)to its first readers,in fact many other papers in theoretical physics are much more difficult.As the physicist Richard Feynman wrote,"There was a time when the newspapers said that only 12 men understood the theory of relativity,which is not true.After reading the paper,a lot of people understood the theory of relativity in some way or other,certainly more than 12." No,the problem is its style.It starts with a leisurely philosophical discussion of space and time and then continues with an explanation of known mathematics.Those two sections,which would be considered extraneous today,take up half the paper.Worse,there are zero citations of previous scientists' work,nor are there any graphs.Those features might make a paper not even get past the first editors. A similar process of professionalization has transformed other parts of the scientific landscape.Requests for research time at major laboratories are more strictly structured.And anything involving work with human objects involves piles of paperwork. We see it also in the Regeneron Science Talent Search,the Nobel Prize of high school science competitions.In the early decades of its history,the winning projects were usually the sort of clever but naive,amateurish （业余的）efforts one might expect of talented beginners working on their own.Today,polished work coming out of internships （实习期）at established laboratories is the norm(常态). These professionalising tendencies are a natural consequence of the explosive growth of modern science.Standardisation and system make it easier to manage the rapid flow of papers,applications and people.But there are serious downsides.A lot of unproductive effort goes into jumping through bureaucratic hoops(繁文褥节). Of course,Einstein would have found his way to meeting modern standards and publishing his results.Its scientific core wouldn't have changed,but the paper might not be the same taste to read. 32.According to Richard Feynman,which statement about Einstein's 1915 paper is true? A.It attracted few professionals. B.It turned out to be comprehensible. C.It needed further improvement. D.It was a classic in theoretical physics. 33.What does the underlined word "extraneous"in Paragraph 3 mean? A.Unrealistic. B.Inaccurate. C.Unattractive. D.Irrelevant. 34.According to the author,what is affected as modem science develops? A.The selection of young talents. B.The evaluation of laboratories. C.The principle of scientific research. D.The application of research findings 35.Which would be the best title for this passage? A.How to write quality papers? B.Will science be professionalised? C.Could Einstein get published today? D.How will modern science make advances? 【答案】BDAC 【解析】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过引用物理学家的话以及现代科学爆炸式发展带来的专业化趋势来介绍爱因斯坦1915年的名著《广义相对论的基础》，这篇论文读起来不一样的地方以及它可能不会在今天的科学期刊上发表的原因。 32.细节理解题。根据第二段的°As the physicist Richard Feynman wrote,There was a time when the news papers said that only 12 men understood the theory of relativity.I do believe there might have been a time when only one man did,because he was the only guy who caught on,before he wrote his paper.But after people read the paper a lot understood the theory of relativity in some way or other,certainly more than 12.(正如物理学家理查德·费曼所写：“曾经有一段时间，报纸上说只有12个人理解相对论。我相信或许确实有过只有一个人懂相对论的时候因为在这篇论文之前，只有爱因斯坦理解这个问题。但当人们读了这篇论文，会有很多人，绝对超过1 2个，或多或少都对相对论有了一定理解。“)可知，爱因斯坦1915年的论文证明是可以理解的。故选B 项。 33.词义猜测题。根据第三段划线词后句“Worse，there ar e zero citations of previous scientists' work,nor are there any graphics.Those features might make a paper not even get past the first editors.(更糟的是，文章没有对前人科学研究进行任何引用，也没有任何图表。这些缺失对如今的科学论文来说是致命的。这样的文章甚至都不会被编辑送审。)可知，爱因斯坦的论文没有引用，也没有图表，在如今看来是很糟糕的，因此此处是说他在论文中花大量篇幅进行的哲学讨论和张量微积分的阐述在今天被认为是无关紧要的，所以画线词词义为“无关紧要的”。故选D项。 34.推理判断题。根据第六段“These professionalising tendencies are a natural consequence of the explosive growth of modern science.Standardisation and system make it easier to manage the rapid flow of papers,applications and people.But there are serious downsides.A lot of unproductive effort goes in to jumping through bureaucratic hoops(繁文缛节)”(这些专业化倾向是现代科学爆炸式发展的自然结果。标准化和系统使得管理文件、应用程序和人员的快速流动变得更加容易。但也有严重的缺点。大量无用功都耗费在了突破官僚形式的层层桎梏上。)可推断，在作者看来，随着现代科学的发展，年轻人才的选拔受到了影响。故选A项。 35.主旨大意题。根据第一段的°Albert Einstein's 1915 masterpiece The Foundation of the General Theory o f Relativity is the first and still the best introduction to the subject,but it probably wouldn't be publishable in a scientific journal today.(阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦1915年的杰作《广义相对论的基础》是对广义相对论的第一篇也是最好的介绍，但这篇文章可能不会在今天的科学期刊上发表。)可知，第一段是总起，文章围绕着这个问题展开论述，所以这篇文章最好的题目是Could Einstein get published today?(爱因斯坦的《相对论》今天能出版吗?)。故选C项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分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。 Reading a new story alone is often a great way to relax.However,sometimes you just want to discuss what you've read with another person to bring those ideas off the page and into the world. 36 First,find members.When you begin searching for your book club members,look in the places in your life that feel most natural to you. 37 Then,maybe it's posting a notice on the bulletin board of your local library or bookstore.If you're looking to"get a range of perspectives" from your club,you may want to consider looking for a diverse range of ages and genders.They can bring their varied world views to discussions. 38 Will your time together be spent largely focusing on the novel at hand,or will refreshments ultimately be the most important?There's the typical friends gathering at someone's apartment and having cheese and wine approach.But oftentimes,people will be frustrated because they just turn into a social event rather than focusing on the book.In order to make sure your new group is all on the same page,take the time to discuss what you want to get out of regular club gatherings before your first official meeting. Picking books may seem like the trickiest part.Books that work really well are ones that allow you to reflect on self.They have a lot of entry points for people so they probably have a good setting.The pacing is solid.There's great character development and the language doesn't get in the way of the story. 39 Before your meetings,list some discussion questions.Remember to come up with questions depending on your book's genre:romance,mystery,thriller and so on. 40 For example you may ask which scene has stuck with them the most or whether there are any standout sentences. A.It is necessary to set some group guidelines. B.Here's a look of four of our favorites below. Ts,reach out to your friends who love to read. D.There are also general questions you can start out with E.You can never go wrong with the bestseller list to get the ball rolling. F.Choose something with that criteria and you can please all kinds of readers. G.If you've ever had the urge to start a book club,it's easier than you might think. 【答案】GCAFD (36) 推理判断题。根据上文Settling down with a great novel enables you to consider ideas that might have never crossed your mind had you not chosen it in the first place.(静下心来读一本伟大的小说能让你思考一些想法，如果你一开始没有选择它，这些想法可能永远不会出现在你的脑海里。)以及后文If you have the urge and are curious about how to start a book club, it’s easier than you might think.(如果你有这种冲动，并且对如何开始一个读书俱乐部感到好奇，这比你想象的要容易得多。)可知，本句是在说明后文提到的”这种冲动“的具体内容:想和别人讨论你读过的东西。故G And sometimes you just want to discuss what you've read with others.(有时候你只是想和别人讨论你读过的东西。)符合语境，故选G。 (37)联系上文题。根据上文First,find members.Reach out to your existing reading-loving friends and post a notice in your local library or bookstore.If you're open to a more digital-friendly approach,put the word out about your new club via Twitter or Facebook.(首先,寻找成员。联系你现有的喜欢阅读的朋友，在当地的图书馆或书店张贴启事。 如果你愿意采用更友好的数字方式, 可以通过Twitter或Facebook宣传你的新俱乐部。)可知，上文提到通过Twitter或Facebook宣传你的新俱乐部，本句为本段最后一句，应承接上文说明这么做的原因：让你日常接触之外的人加入你的圈子,故F.You may get people beyond your daily contact to join your circle.(你可以让你日常接触之外的人加入你的圈子。)符合语境，故选F。 (38)细节理解题。根据上文Will your time to get her be spent largely focusing on the novel at hand? (你们在一起的时间主要集中在手头的小说上吗?)以及后文While enjoying stimulating non-book conversation over coffee and snacks is in no way ill-advised,not everyone who signs up for a book club is willing to reject their novel for a cup.(边喝咖啡边吃零食，享受与书本无关的刺激对话并非不明智，但并不是每个参加读书俱乐部的人都愿意为了一杯咖啡而放弃自己的小说。)可知，后文提到了边喝咖啡边吃零食，可推测本句与上文并列,都是设问句,故E.Will refreshments ultimately be the most important? (茶点最终会是最重要的吗?)符合语境,故选E。 (39) 段落主题题。根据后文Books that work really well are the ones that help you reflection self.They have lots of entry points for people so they probably have a good setting.Also,there's great character development.Select something with the criteria, and you can please all kinds of readers.(真正有用的书是那些能帮助你反思自我的书。他们为人们提供了很多入口，所以他们可能有一个很好的环境。此外，还有很好的角色发展。选择符合标准的东西，你可以让各种读者满意。)可知，本段的主旨是关于书的选择的建议，故C.Picking books may seem like the trickiest part.(选书似乎是最棘手的部分。)符合语境，故选C。 (5)细节理解题。根据上文As far as how often you meet,that schedule is up to your members to determine what's realistic-plus how long it will take to complete the book As for location,meeting up at your home is always an option.(至于你多久见面一次，这个时间表由你的成员决定什么是现实的，再加上完成这本书需要多长时间。 至于地点，在家里见面总是一个不错的选择。)以及后文Meeting at a public space like a bar can ease the pressure of entertaining.(在酒吧这样的公共场所见面可以缓解娱乐的压力。)可知，本句是在针对上文提到的在家见面所提出的建议。故A.Don't feel bound to act as host,though.(不过,不要觉得一定要当主人。)符合语境，故选A。 解析这是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何建立读书俱乐部提出了一些建议。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分3分） 第一节（共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Granny fell ill before Valentine's Day.She had to 41 our planned zoo trip,which she had been 42 .

Helping the butter flies Organizers created educational panels in English and Spanish explaining the butterflies' annual traveling and their trouble.The signs also outline ways travelers can help the butterflies recover,such as by supporting chemical-free farms and planting native nectar(花蜜)gardens. Why butterflies fly to the California coast Many stops in Pismo State Beach Monarch Butterfly Grove and Andrew Molera State Park,are overwintering sites where,from October to February,travelers can see thousands of butterflies gathering in forests in areas with mild temperatures,dappled (sunlight,high dampness,and little to no wind Other sites,like the San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden and Avila Valley Bam,grow flowers that provide sugary,high-calorie food for the butterflies to eat.Butterflies setting here demonstrate how vital nectarine plants are to their survival. How to explore the Western Monarch Trail The butterflies' behavior varies it different times of day and depending on the weather.In the mornings,while temperatures are still cool,step out of the cabin (in the Fernwood Rcsort where you stay overnight,you’ll find many butterflies hinging together on the branches and trunks of trees at the overwintering sites.As the day starts to heat up—typically by late morning or early afternoon-you'll be amazed at the phenomenon"sunburst"-the butterflies start flying around in search of nearby nectar.Keep your eyes skyward.Don't grab your camera.Just be in the moment. 21.What's the Western Monarch Trail initiative aimed at?

B Josefa Marin went to New York from Mexico in 1987,supporting her daughter back home with the $140 a week she earned at a sweater factory.With that small income.she had to collect recyclables.trading in cans for five cents each. When the clothing factory closed down in the late 2000s,she became a full-time recycler,picking up cans and bottles to make ends meat Marin's story is not unique.Millions around the world make a living from picking through waste and reselling it-a vital role that keeps waste manageable.In New York City,the administrative department collects only about 28 percent of the cans that could be recycled Rubbish collectors keep millions of additional recyclables out of landfills every year. Yet collectors are ruled out by government policies.The United States Supreme Court in 1988 stated that household garbage is public property on it’s on the street That enables police to search rubbish for evidence,but that protection hasn't always been extended to recyclers.And in places like New York City,which is testing city-owned locked containers to hide garbage from rats,containers are made clearly inaccessible for collectors. "There's value in the waste,and we feel that value should belong to the people,not the city or the corporations,"says Ryan Castalia,director of a nonprofit recycling and community center in Brooklyn. Recognized or not,waste pickers have long been treated with disrespect.Marin recalls art occasion when someone living next to a building where she was collecting cans threw water at her."Because I recycle doesn't mean I am less of a person than anyone else,"she says. Some governments are starting to realize that protecting the environment and humanity go hand in hand.The United Nation's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development,for example,calls for an end to poverty and all the risks it brings. 24.What is he author's purpose of telling about Marin? A.To highlight waste collectors' role. B.To reflect laid-off workers' hardship. C.To praise her devotion to her daughter. D.To show the seriousness of unemployment. 25.How does the author show the importance of waste pickers’ work? A.By contrasting. B.By citing reference. C.By giving definitions. D.By cause-effect analysis. 26.What would Marin agree with? A.Business is business. B.No job is noble or humble. C.The early bird catches worms. D.One good turn deserves another. 27.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.How can we end poverty? B.Who owns our garbage? C.Who takes blame for waste? D.How should we recycle rubbish? C The greatest irony (讽刺)of the world-wide celebrations held in 2012 to honour the 200th anniversary of the first edition of the Grimms' Hausmarchen involves the discovery that most people really don't know the original Grims' tales published in 1812. If we return to take a closer look at the first edition,we'll find it was this edition that inspired scholars of folk culture throughout Europe to gather tales from the oral tradition and preserve them for future generations. When the Grimms Jacob and Wilhelm began collecting all kinds of folk tales and songs at the beginning of the 19th century,what attracted them to concentrate on old German literature was a belief that the most natural and pure forms of culture were to be located in the past,while modern literature,even though it might be remarkably rich,was artificial and thus could not express the genuine quality of folk culture that originated naturally from people's experiences and bound the people together.Broadly speaking.the Grimms sought to collect and preserve ancient things consisting of tales,songs and documents.They intended to demonstrate bow natural language,originating from the needs and customs of the common people,created genuine bonds and helped form civilized communities. Turing to the first edition a reader might notice that,totally unlike the final edition of 1857,the first edition collects more genuine folk tales,keeping spoken and raw contents,despite the fact that the language is not as pleasing as that in later revised versions.For instance,Snow White's mother,not her stepmother,wants to kill the beautiful girl out of envy.The storytellers do not beat about the bush and they tell the truths they know,engaging people to learn from symbols how to engage their realities,even though magic,incredible transformation and cruelty are involved. Lastly the Grimms’ little-known first edition reveals forgotten voices that are actually deep within us.Therefore,the irresistibility of the Grimms' tales are that really not theirs,but ours. 28.According to the author,why should we rediscover the Grimms' first edition? A.To explore its origin. B.To appreciate is significance C.To honour its 200th anniversary. D.To remember the Brothers Grimm. 29.What is paragraph3 of the text mainly about? A.The quality of the folk culture. B.The contents of the first edition. C.The feature of the old German literature. D.The motivation of the Grimms collecting tales. 30.What can we learn about Snow White in the first edition? A.It is loosely based on the folk tale. B.It instructs readers to integrate into life. It is appealing for its beautiful language. D.It exposes envy and cruelty of the stepmother. 31.What can we infer about the Brothers Grimm from the text? A.They were collectors of antiques. B.They kept their style in later editions. C.They thought highly of modem literature. D.They were pioneers in preserving folk culture. D Albert Einstein's 1915 masterpiece The Foundation of the General Theory of Relativity is the first and still the best introduction to the subject,but it probably wouldn't be publishable in a scientific journal today. Why not?After all,it undoubtedly would pass the tests of correctness and significance.And while it's believed that the paper was incomprehensible(费解的)to its first readers,in fact many other papers in theoretical physics are much more difficult.As the physicist Richard Feynman wrote,"There was a time when the newspapers said that only 12 men understood the theory of relativity,which is not true.After reading the paper,a lot of people understood the theory of relativity in some way or other,certainly more than 12." No,the problem is its style.It starts with a leisurely philosophical discussion of space and time and then continues with an explanation of known mathematics.Those two sections,which would be considered extraneous today,take up half the paper.Worse,there are zero citations of previous scientists' work,nor are there any graphs.Those features might make a paper not even get past the first editors. A similar process of professionalization has transformed other parts of the scientific landscape.Requests for research time at major laboratories are more strictly structured.And anything involving work with human objects involves piles of paperwork. We see it also in the Regeneron Science Talent Search,the Nobel Prize of high school science competitions.In the early decades of its history,the winning projects were usually the sort of clever but naive,amateurish （业余的）efforts one might expect of talented beginners working on their own.Today,polished work coming out of internships （实习期）at established laboratories is the norm(常态). These professionalising tendencies are a natural consequence of the explosive growth of modern science.Standardisation and system make it easier to manage the rapid flow of papers,applications and people.But there are serious downsides.A lot of unproductive effort goes into jumping through bureaucratic hoops(繁文褥节). Of course,Einstein would have found his way to meeting modern standards and publishing his results.Its scientific core wouldn't have changed,but the paper might not be the same taste to read. 32.According to Richard Feynman,which statement about Einstein's 1915 paper is true? A.It attracted few professionals. B.It turned out to be comprehensible. C.It needed further improvement. D.It was a classic in theoretical physics. 33.What does the underlined word "extraneous"in Paragraph 3 mean? A.Unrealistic. B.Inaccurate. C.Unattractive. D.Irrelevant. 34.According to the author,what is affected as modem science develops? A.The selection of young talents. B.The evaluation of laboratories. C.The principle of scientific research.
