B Madame Marie Curie famously won two Nobel Prizes, but many other women have also been awarded (奖励) the prize, too. Here are their stories. Selma Lagerlof Selma Lagerlof was a Swedish author and teacher. She published her first novel, Gosta Berling’s Saga, at the age of 33. She was the first female writer to win the Nobel Prize in Literature which she was awarded in 1909. Additionally, she was the first female to be granted (授予) membership in the Swedish Academy (研究院). Gerty Theresa Cori Gerty and her husband, Carl Cori, met in Prague and lived in Austria before immigrating to the United States in 1922, where the two medical doctors worked together at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in New York. In 1947, Gerty and Carl were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, making Gerty Cori the first woman to hold the honor. Maria Goeppert-Mayer In 1942, Maria Goeppert-Mayer joined the Manhattan Project. From there, she moved on to Los Alamos National Laboratory, then to Argonne National Laboratory, where Goeppert-Mayer developed the nuclear shell model. For this, she shared the 1963 Nobel Prize in Physics with J. Hans D. Jensen and Eugene Paul Wigner. Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin Dorothy Hodgkin’s mother encouraged her love of science as a child, and at age 18, she began studying chemistry at a women-only Oxford college.

Who gained the Nobel Prize first according to the passage? A. Maria Goeppert-Mayer. B. Gerty Theresa Cori. C. Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin. D. Selma Lagerlof. C Across the world, language and history are connected. As society and tradition change, new words or phrases are created to show the present cultural understanding. Some old phrases and words simply turn into the accepted usages with their backgrounds forgotten. One such phrase “grandfathered in” has become a common one now. Although it often makes people think of the image of a gray-haired older gentleman, who gets out of trouble because of his age, it actually means that one person or a business has the right to refuse the new rules. A deeper look into the first use of the phrase shows an interesting story in history. It happened in a town in the 1980s. A new law was passed there not to allow illiterates (文盲) to participate in the making of rules as they couldn’t read or write and might not help in the process. The limit was potent because except for the old and children, there were close to 30 percent of young adults in the town who had little or no education. Being strong and energetic, they made up an important part of the town’s development. Considering that, some officers in the town didn’t readily accept the rule. Instead, they carefully gave their advice to the head of the town. At the same time, they encouraged these young adults to pass the literacy(读写能力)tests. Thus a “grandfather clause(条款)”was added to allow illiterates to participate as long as they or their grandfathers had once been participants. The clause no doubt helped remove the unfairness and benefited all. The phrase “grandfathered in” is of course still widely used today without being limited to a certain field. But even as culture and tradition change, whether we’re aware of it or not, language has the power to hold our history. 46. According to Paragraph 1, what has happened to some old phrase with time going? A. They have got lost in history. B. Few people can use them correctly. C. They are rarely used in popular culture. D. Few people know much about their history. 47. The phrase “grandfathered in” is used nowadays when________. A. an old man dislikes new rules B. a person is free from new rules C. a business has a long history and culture D. a businessman fails to follow the market rules 48. What does the underlined word “potent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Unless. B. Powerful. C. Easy. D. Reasonable. 49. What does the author think of the “grandfather clause” in the history? A Funny. B. Incorrect. C. Positive. D. Disappointing. 50. What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph? A. Language and history are always connected. B. The birth of some phrases can be interesting. C. History plays an important role in communication. D. Some phrases are created to show the present culture. D People generally tend to pick out the best-looking fruits and vegetables when shopping for produce, but Canadian supermarket chain Loblaws is attracting customers with badly-shaped and faulty produce at the price of 30% lower than normal-looking ones. A trial run of the ugly food line, named “Naturally Imperfect”, began with only apples and tomatoes to choose from. Consumer demand has been so huge that Loblaws is going to introduce more unsightly vegetables and fruit options like onions and mushrooms. The line is available at other stores, including Real Canadian Superstore and Your Independent Grocer. All the produce that will be sold through Naturally Imperfect would otherwise have been used in juices, sauces, or soups, or have not been harvested at all. The director Dan Branson explained that this program benefited both food producers who would otherwise have to let abnormal harvest go to waste, and consumers who could buy fresh produce at low prices. And he was right, given how popular the line has become. “It really went well beyond our expectation,” Branson said. “I think it really spoke to the fact that Canadians are out there really looking for some options.” Of course, Canadians know that beauty is more than skin deep, but they also recognize that they can get the same flavor and nutritional benefits in spite of appearances. The positive response to the initial offering of apples and potatoes showed the opportunity to expand the line and offer more options at a greater price to Canadian families. “If you grow produce in your backyard, there will be a lot of produce that won’t look as pretty as what you will see in a grocery store, said Branson. “And nature doesn't grow everything perfectly. I’d like to think if somebody were to take a No Name Naturally Imperfect apple, put right beside a No.1 apple, close their eyes and eat them, there would be no difference.” 51. Loblaws is different from other supermarkets in that . A. more fruits are offered at lower prices B. normal-looking produce is banned there C. imperfect produce is sold at lower prices there D. only apples and potatoes are sold every day 52. According to Paragraph 3, Branson's program . A. prevents people from wasting their food B. happens to be a win-win arrangement C. teaches food producers how to grow D. enables consumers to eat more fresh produce 53. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The ugly food line B. The food to be wasted C. The abnormal harvest D. All the produce 54. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. Canadians are used to eating perfect produce. B. Smart consumers know the importance of ugly produce. C. Loblaws intends to improve customers’ quality of life. D. Customers’ support promotes the development of Loblaws. 55. What do Branson’s words in the last paragraph mainly tell us? A We should eat imperfect apples with our eyes closed. B. The world is usually full of imperfect things. C. Imperfect fruits are as tasty and nutritious as perfect ones. D. The fruits grown by ourselves are more nutritious than those in the store. 四、阅读表达：本大题共1小题，共10分。 阅读短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。 Katie always felt there had to be something more to life than just partying, buying clothes and driving a cool car. She finally discovered what she was missing out on when she traveled halfway around the world to help poor kids. When she was 14, she discovered a club at school called Operation Smile, an organization that supports free operation for facially deformed (面部畸形的) kids in developing countries. At that time, she joined Operation Smile just to satisfy her school’s community service requirement. After working with Operation Smile for a while, she learned different countries have different deformities. The more she learned about what affects kids around the world, the more she wanted to go abroad with Operation Smile. At 15, she was chosen to go abroad. Before her trip, she attended a weekend “mission (使命) training”. That’s when she was told she’d be going to the Philippines. Although she was excited, one night during training, she broke down in tears. She felt pity for all those unfortunate kids. After her arrival in the Philippines, she met the kids waiting for operation, and they were running around and happy. It seemed normal. Her job was to play with the kids before their operation to help them feel more relaxed. She also went to nearby schools to hand out toothbrushes and teach students how to brush their teeth. When their operation was over, the kids were always overjoyed, but their parents were blown away. Sometimes they couldn’t even recognize their kids because their appearances had improved so much. They would cry and hug the doctors and nurses and give them presents — they were so grateful. 56. According to the text, what is “Operation Smile”? (no more than 15 words) 57.

As society and tradition change, new words or phrases are created to show the present cultural understanding. Some old phrases and words simply turn into the accepted usages with their backgrounds forgotten. One such phrase “grandfathered in” has become a common one now. Although it often makes people think of the image of a gray-haired, older gentleman, who gets out of trouble because of his age, it actually means that one person or a business has the right to refuse the new rules. A deeper look into the first use of the phrase shows an interesting story in history. It happened in a town in the 1980s. A new law was passed there not to allow illiterates (文盲) to participate in the making of rules as they couldn’t read or write and might not help in the process. The limit was potent because except for the old and children, there were close to 30 percent of young adults in the town who had little or no education. Being strong and energetic, they made up an important part of the town’s development. Considering that, some officers in the town didn’t readily accept the rule. Instead, they carefully gave their advice to the head of the town. At the same time, they encouraged these young adults to pass the literacy(读写能力)tests. Thus a “grandfather clause(条款)”was added to allow illiterates to participate as long as they or their grandfathers had once been participants. The clause no doubt helped remove the unfairness and benefited all. The phrase “grandfathered in” is of course still widely used today without being limited to a certain field. But even as culture and tradition change, whether we’re aware of it or not, language has the power to hold our history. 46. According to Paragraph 1, what has happened to some old phrase with time going? A. They have got lost in history. B. Few people can use them correctly. C. They are rarely used in popular culture. D. Few people know much about their history. 47. The phrase “grandfathered in” is used nowadays when________. A. an old man dislikes new rules B. a person is free from new rules C. a business has a long history and culture D. a businessman fails to follow the market rules 48. What does the underlined word “potent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Unless. B. Powerful. C. Easy. D. Reasonable. 49. What does the author think of the “grandfather clause” in the history? A. Funny. B. Incorrect. C. Positive. D. Disappointing. 50. What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph? A. Language and history are always connected. B. The birth of some phrases can be interesting. C. History plays an important role in communication. D. Some phrases are created to show the present culture. 【答案】46. D 47. B 48. B 49. C 50. A 【解析】 【分析】本文为一篇说明文。作者认为过去的一些短语虽然现在还在使用，但是意思已经发生了变化，作者通过一个例子说明语言和文化是相连的。 46题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Some old phrases and words simply turn into the accepted usages with their backgrounds forgotten.”（一些旧的短语和单词只是变成了被接受的用法，忘记了它们的背景。）可知，这些人们对于这些短语的背景以及历史了解不够深入，选项D符合题意。故选D。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Although it often makes people think of the image of a gray-haired, older gentleman, who gets out of trouble because of his age, it actually means that one person or a business has the right to refuse the new rules.”（虽然它经常让人们想到一个白发苍苍的年长绅士的形象，因为他的年龄而摆脱了麻烦，但它实际上意味着一个人或一家企业有权拒绝新规定。）可知，“grandfathered in”这个短语现在用在一个人不受新规则的约束的时候。故选B。 【48题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第三段划线单词所在句子“The limit was potent because except for the old and children, there were close to 30 percent of young adults in the town who had little or no education.”（这个限制很有效，因为除了老人和孩子，镇上近30%的年轻人几乎没有受过教育。）以及后句“Being strong and energetic, they made up an important part of the town’s development.”（他们身体强壮，精力充沛，是这个城市发展的重要组成部分。）可知，限制的效果是好的。因此选项B符合题意；故选B。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Thus a ‘grandfather clause(条款)’was added to allow illiterates to participate as long as they or their grandfathers had once been participants. The clause no doubt helped remove the unfairness and benefited all.”（因此“祖父条款”被添加到允许文盲参与只要他们或他们的祖父曾经是参与者。这一条款无疑有助于消除不公平，使所有人受益。）可知，作者对于这条款是积极的态度。故选C。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But even as culture and tradition change, whether we’re aware of it or not, language has the power to hold our history.”（但即使文化和传统在改变，无论我们是否意识到，语言仍有力量保存我们的历史。）可知，作者想告诉我们语言和文化是相连的。故选A。 D People generally tend to pick out the best-looking fruits and vegetables when shopping for produce, but Canadian supermarket chain Loblaws is attracting customers with badly-shaped and faulty produce at the price of 30% lower than normal-looking ones. A trial run of the ugly food line, named “Naturally Imperfect”, began with only apples and tomatoes to choose from. Consumer demand has been so huge that Loblaws is going to introduce more unsightly vegetables and fruit options like onions and mushrooms. The line is available at other stores, including Real Canadian Superstore and Your Independent Grocer. All the produce that will be sold through Naturally Imperfect would otherwise have been used in juices, sauces, or soups, or have not been harvested at all. The director Dan Branson explained that this program benefited both food producers who would otherwise have to let abnormal harvest go to waste, and consumers who could buy fresh produce at low prices. And he was right, given how popular the line has become. “It really went well beyond our expectation,” Branson said. “I think it really spoke to the fact that Canadians are out there really looking for some options.” Of course, Canadians know that beauty is more than skin deep, but they also recognize that they can get the same flavor and nutritional benefits in spite of appearances. The positive response to the initial offering of apples and potatoes showed the opportunity to expand the line and offer more options at a greater price to Canadian families. “If you grow produce in your backyard, there will be a lot of produce that won’t look as pretty as what you will see in a grocery store, said Branson. “And nature doesn't grow everything perfectly. I’d like to think if somebody were to take a No Name Naturally Imperfect apple, put right beside a No.1 apple, close their eyes and eat them, there would be no difference.” 51. Loblaws is different from other supermarkets in that . A. more fruits are offered at lower prices B. normal-looking produce is banned there C. imperfect produce is sold at lower prices there D. only apples and potatoes are sold every day 52. According to Paragraph 3, Branson's program . A. prevents people from wasting their food B. happens to be a win-win arrangement C. teaches food producers how to grow D. enables consumers to eat more fresh produce 53. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The ugly food line B. The food to be wasted C. The abnormal harvest D. All the produce 54. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. Canadians are used to eating perfect produce. B. Smart consumers know the importance of ugly produce. C. Loblaws intends to improve customers’ quality of life. D. Customers’ support promotes the development of Loblaws. 55. What do Branson’s words in the last paragraph mainly tell us? A. We should eat imperfect apples with our eyes closed. B.

She finally discovered what she was missing out on when she traveled halfway around the world to help poor kids. When she was 14, she discovered a club at school called Operation Smile, an organization that supports free operation for facially deformed (面部畸形的) kids in developing countries. At that time, she joined Operation Smile just to satisfy her school’s community service requirement. After working with Operation Smile for a while, she learned different countries have different deformities. The more she learned about what affects kids around the world, the more she wanted to go abroad with Operation Smile. At 15, she was chosen to go abroad. Before her trip, she attended a weekend “mission (使命) training”. That’s when she was told she’d be going to the Philippines. Although she was excited, one night during training, she broke down in tears. She felt pity for all those unfortunate kids. After her arrival in the Philippines, she met the kids waiting for operation, and they were running around and happy. It seemed normal. Her job was to play with the kids before their operation to help them feel more relaxed. She also went to nearby schools to hand out toothbrushes and teach students how to brush their teeth. When their operation was over, the kids were always overjoyed, but their parents were blown away. Sometimes they couldn’t even recognize their kids because their appearances had improved so much. They would cry and hug the doctors and nurses and give them presents — they were so grateful. 56. According to the text, what is “Operation Smile”? (no more than 15 words) 57.
