B I was walking home when a well-dressed man politely stopped me."Could you tell me which way to Bloor and.."IIo struggled to get the next word out with a pained look,but I knew better than to finish his sentence for him. "..Bathurst?"he said after several seconds of trying.When I answered,he told me that he didn't actually need to know.He was practising stutterng()openly,he explained,hoping to become more confident-doing so around strangers "Are you doing that because it's National Stuttering Awareness Day?"I asked with excitement,eager to connect with other stutterers.When he asked how knew that,I said I grew up with a stutter.He nodded,asking hopefully:"So your stutter has magically disappeared?"I paused.I understood why he assumed this-I sounded quite fluent.But even as we spoke.my stutter had influenced my speech,and rhat's why I'd misnamed International as National to avoid the tricky front sound that I continue to struggle with. Data shows four percent of all children stutter,while only one percent of them stutter into adulthood-a 75 percent drop.But are the supposed ex-stutters completely free of their stuttering past?Actually,though the severity of my stutter has decreased with age,it has shaped my identity and affected my life tremendously,informing the way that I speak,interact and move around in the world. Some define stutter as a disability because it is as constant and out of control as blindness or other disabilities. There's no pill,no surgery,no way to get rid of it,no"recovering"from it.But there is recovering from the shame and self-hatred that result from it.Some researchers have begun to arguc that treatment for stutter shouldn't be centered around removing a person's stutter,but rather on reducing one's negative thoughts and behaviors surrounding it. As for me,I'd say that my stutter has not"mapically disappeared"because I've simply found ways to conceal (it.But I have a better therapy now-I will grow alongside it,an identity mseparable from the way that I speak Thinking about this,I decided to tell the man,who wasstill looking at me hopefully:", 24.The decent man stopped the author because he 试卷第3页，共8页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP A.lost his way and asked ahout the direction B.was very eager to conucct with other stutterers C.wanted to be braver when talking to unfamiliar people D.was practising giving speeches fluently in opcn occasions 25.Why did the author misnamc thie Intcrnational as National ia paragraph 2? A.Bccause he misremembercd the namc of this day. B.Becausc the National version is more farhiliar to pcoplc. C.Because it is quite difficult for him to make the sound "inter".. D.Bccouse as a stutter,he can't pronouncc anything. 26 What migbt be tho author's answer in the last paragraph? A.Yes.have got rid of stuttcr by developing a more positixe attitude towards life. B.No.There is no recovering from stutter and I have simply found ways tn conceal it. C.Yes.As I grow older,I rarcly stutter now and people around me don't know I stuttered. D.No.I will always live with stutter because it is also a part of me and I gladly accept that. 27.What's the best title for this passago? A.My stutter,myself B.New definitions for stutter C.Stutter,a life-changing disability D.A special encounter with stutterers C Researchers at MIT(麻省理工学院)have developed a new prosthetic(假肢的)leg that can be controlled by brain signals,an achievement that could greatly enhance the experience of walking for people with leg disabilities. According to a new study published in the joumal Nature Medicine,the researchers found that their "meuroprosthetics"increased walking speed by 41 percent compared to a control group who received traditional prostheses,erabling equal peak speeds to persons without leg amputation().'Better yet,such a device could adapt in real-time to a variety of environments such as slopes,stairs and uneven pathways",the researchers argued "This is the first prosthetic study in history that shows a leg prosthesis controlled fully by the brain.It creates a natural walking movement."said the author Hugh Herr,who has lost both legs himself."No one has been able to show this level of brain control.The human's nervous system is controlling the movement,not a robotic control algorithm(算法)” The study examined seven patients who underwent special surgery,which allows them to accurately sense the position,speed,and turning foree of their legs. "Because of the interface (of this special surgery,we were able to boost the ncural signaling, preserving as much as we could,"said lead author Hyungcun Song."This helped people continuously and direetl control their walking position in different situations such as stairs and slopes.and they could cven go over barriers."Better yet,"not only will they be able to walk on a flat surface,but they'll be able to go hiking or dancing because they'll have full control movement,"Herr told us. "This work represents yet another demonstrating what is possible in terms of function in patients who suffer from severe leg injury,"Harvard Medical School associato professor Carty added 28.What can we know about the new legs developed by MIT researchers: A.It is designed for the use on flat surfaces. B.It operates with a robotio control algorithm. C.It can be brain-controlled and improve walking specd. D.It has a lower cost compared to the traditional prostheses 29.What's Hugh Herr's alutude towards this new prosthetic leg? 试卷第4页，共8页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP A.Doubtful. B.Ncgative. C.Supportive. D.Indifferent. 30.Which aspect of the special surgery is mebtioned-in parayraph 5? A.Its working principle. B.Its positive cffects. C.Its application limit. D.Its tcsting history. 31.What would be the best title for this text? A.MIT's Breakthrough in Prosthetic Leg B.Surgical Techniques far the Disabled C.Traditional Prosthctics vs.Modem Ones D.The Challenges of Leg-Injured Patients D Not all birds sing,but scveral thousand species do.They sing to defend their territory and croon (to impress potential matcs."Why birds sing is relatively well-answered,"says Iris Adam,a behavioral neuroscientist. However,the big question for her was why birds sing so rauch. "As soon as you sing,you reveal yourself,"Adam says."Like,w here wou are and where your territory is."In a new study published in the journal Nature Communications,Adam and her co-workers offer a new explanation for why birds take that risk.They may have to sing a lot every day to pive their vocal (muscies the regular exerciso they need to produce top-quality songs To figure out whether the muscles that produce birdsongs require daily exercise,Adam designed an experiment on zebra finches-the little Australian songbirds. She stopped them from singing for a week by keeping them in the dark cage almost around the clock.Light is what ealvanizes the birds to sing,so she had to work to keep them from warbling ()"The first two or three days,it's quite easv."she says."But the longer the experiment goes,the more they are like,'I need to sing.""At that point,she'd tap the cage and tell them to stop singing. After a week,the birds'singing muscles lost half their strength.But Adam wondered whether that impacted the quality of songs.When she played a male's song before and after the seven days of darkness,she couldn't hear a difference But when Adam plaved it to a group of female birds,six out of nine preferred the song that camc from a male who'd been using his singing muscles daily. Adam's conclusion shows that"songbirds need to exercise their vocal muscles to produce top-performance songs.If they don't sing,they lose performance,and their songs get les6 attractive to females."This may help explain songbirds'continuous singing. It's a good rule to live by,whether you're a bird or a human-practice makes perfect,at least when it comes to singing one's heart out. 32.According to.Iris Adam,birds sing so muich to__ A.wamn other birds of risks B.produce more songs C.perform perfectly in singing D.defend their territory 33.What does the underlined word"galvanizes"in Paragraph 3 mean? A.Prepares.. B.Stimulates. C.Bans. D.Inquires. 34.What do we know about the caged birds in the experiment? A.They lost the ability to sing. B.They strengthened their muscles. C.Their songs showed no difference. D.Their songs became less appealing. 35.What mav Iris Adam agree with? A.The songbirds live on music. B.The songbirds are born singers C.Daily exercise keeps birds healthy.D.Practice makes birds perfect singers. 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。 For centuries,Antarctica (has attracted people around the world.Explorers sought to travel there and crossed dangerous waters full of ice.Scientists have studied weather,wildlife,and geology there for decades. 36 试卷第5页，共8页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP On average,Antarctica's ice sheet is about 1.5 miles thick.The ice of Antarctica is the result of thousands of years of compacted (snow.In the last fow decades,theygh,scicntists have reported that the ice is meltmg.
