A
A high school senior in California called Ahmed Muhammad has started an organization that designs science kits(配套工具) for primary school students.He launched Kits Cubed to introduce kids to the wonders of science through fun,affordable,and accessible means,which owed to a babysitting experience.
Ⅰ.阅读理解
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文,加州的一个叫艾哈迈德穆罕默德的高中生成立了一个组织,为小学生设计科学工具包,通过有趣、实惠、方便的方式向孩子们介绍科学的奇迹。
He was babysitting his nephew when he decided that the activity for the day would be a science experiment.His nephew told him that he hated science because he was bad at it.“He literally loved everything and then when I brought up science,he doubted himself,” Muhammad told CNN.Muhammad was not going to let his nephew’s self-doubt continue,so he decided to use simple science experiments to convince him that he was not bad at science.
“We went to the store together and I had him pick out potatoes,and then I went to the hardware store to buy some copper nails,some galvanized(镀锌的) nails and some wire.And then,we made a battery out of them,” he said.That was how Muhammad successfully convinced his nephew that he was not bad at science.“He actually likes science now,” he said.
From this experience,Muhammad started thinking to help more kids like his nephew.With the help of his teachers,he started designing science kits that explored real science concepts with simple everyday materials.So far,Kits Cubed sells three kinds of kits,with three experiments in each kit.Each kit sells for $15.
According to Muhammad,Kits Cubed has reached more than 2,000 young people in Oakland so far.“My nephew told me he was bad at science.He didn’t like it.I want to remove that thought,and replace it with ‘I’m good at science and I can be a scientist if I want to’.That’s what I really want them to get out of the kits,” said Muhammad.
1.What can we learn from Muhammad’s babysitting experience?
A.Children usually hate scientific experiments.
B.Muhammad got along well with his nephew.
C.Muhammad extended his nephew’s interest.
D.Children could hardly remove self-doubt.
√
细节理解题。根据第三段中“That was how Muhammad successfully convinced his nephew that he was not bad at science.‘He actually likes science now,’ he said.”可知Muhammad改变了侄子对于科学的态度。故选C。
解析
2.What can we know about the science kits?
A.They are still in the trial period.
B.They use easily available materials.
C.They include three experiments in total.
D.They are independently designed by Muhammad.
√
细节理解题。根据第四段中“With the help of his teachers,he started designing science kits that explored real science concepts with simple everyday materials.”可知科学工具包用的是容易获得的日常材料,故选B。
解析
3.Which of the following could best describe Ahmed Muhammad?
A.Creative and capable.
B.Active and independent.
C.Tolerant and hard-working.
D.Humorous and warm-hearted.
√
推理判断题。根据首段内容可知Ahmed Muhammad自己设计工具包,非常有创意,并且可以将创意变成现实,有一定的能力,故选A。
解析
4.What does Muhammad really expect children to gain from his science kits?
A.The ability to do some research.
B.The respect for science and scientists.
C.The understanding of science concepts.
D.The confidence in learning science well.
√
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I want to remove that thought,and replace it with ‘I’m good at science and I can be a scientist if I want to’.That’s what I really want them to get out of the kits”可知他想孩子们通过他的科学工具包得到学习科学的自信,故选D。
解析
B
C.elegans is a tiny worm that scientists have been using for years to study aging,and they just made a new discovery.Researchers found that variations in a specific gene affected the lifespan of the worm,suggesting that the same genes could have similar effects on humans.The study is part of an ongoing effort to find genes that affect lifespan and are a potential target for anti-aging drugs.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。研究人员发现了一种特定基因的变异会影响蠕虫的寿命,这表明人体内的相同基因可能对人类产生类似的影响。
The worm is a popular model organism for studying aging because it’s easy to see how long they live.Unlike humans,the worm’s lifespan is measured in days,not years,which makes it easier to study the aging process.Previous studies have already shown that changes in diet,exercise,and drugs can affect the worm’s lifespan,but this is the first time a specific gene has been identified that affects lifespan.
The specific gene,called DAF-16,is known to be involved in a variety of biological processes,including stress response and metabolism(新陈代谢).When researchers changed the gene,they found that it increased the lifespan of the worm by up to 60%.The discovery could have implications for human aging,as the same gene exists in humans.
Researchers caution that there’s still a long way to go before this discovery can be translated into anti-aging drugs.For one,the worm’s lifespan is so short that it’s difficult to know how the gene would affect humans over a longer period of time.Additionally,the study only looked at one gene while there are likely many other genes that affect lifespan.Still,the discovery is an important step in understanding the aging process and developing potential anti-aging treatments.
Overall,the study highlights the potential of model organisms,like the lowly nematode(线虫),in advancing our understanding of aging and developing new treatments.As the global population continues to age,research into the aging process will become increasingly important.
5.What actually is the key factor affecting lifespan that has been newly discovered?
A.C.elegans. B.Changes in diet.
C.DAF-16. D.Stress response.
√
细节理解题。根据第一段第二句和第三段内容可知,学者们近期发现被称为DAF-16的基因可能影响蠕虫甚至人类的寿命。故选C。
解析
6.Why is it difficult to translate the discovery into anti-aging drugs?
A.Humans’ lifespan is too changeable to predict.
B.There is a huge gap between humans’ and worms’ lifestyle.
C.The genes in humans are different from those in the worm.
D.Other genes affecting lifespan need to be taken into consideration.
√
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Researchers caution that there’s still a long way...while there are likely many other genes that affect lifespan.”可知,把这项发现转化为抗衰老药物的难处之一在于需要考虑其他影响寿命的基因。故选D。
解析
7.What is the author’s overall attitude towards the discovery?
A.Uninterested. B.Doubtful.
C.Positive. D.Worried.
√
观点态度题。根据倒数第二段的“Still,the discovery is an important step in understanding the aging process and developing potential anti-aging treatments.”和末段内容可推知,作者对这项研究发现持积极的态度。故选C。
解析
8.What is the main idea of the article?
A.Great progress in the study of lifespan.
B.The discovery of a worm affecting lifespan.
C.The significance of organism in studying aging.
D.The importance of research into the aging process.
√
主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是首段可知,文章主要介绍研究人员发现了一种特定基因的变异会影响蠕虫的寿命,这表明人体内的相同基因可能对人类产生类似的影响,这是关于寿命的研究的一个巨大进展。故选A。
解析
Can you remember a time when somebody was kind to you?Perhaps a person allowed you to go in front of them in a queue.Maybe your sister phoned you to ask how your week was going.
Ⅱ.七选五
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了友善的好处以及如何做到友善。
Or perhaps a stranger or a friend helped you in a much deeper way. 1
A.Doing something good can be very hard.
B.You praise it and show your admiration.
C.Generally,these fall into three categories.
D.Offering kindness can bring happiness.
E.There are a million ways to offer kindness.
F.People are encouraged to do random acts of kindness.
G.If you are kind to yourself,you will naturally be kinder to others.
√
上文主要列举了几种别人对你的友善举动,段尾句对本段有总结作用,E项说明表达善意的方式有很多,作为总结恰到好处。故选E项。
解析
Few people would disagree with the idea that a kind action is good for the soul.It is a win-win situation,leading to a sense of well-being for both the receiver and the giver.As a simple example,let’s imagine you have a workmate who always does a very good job.
2 Your workmate will be happy to receive some praise and,in addition,you will probably feel good about yourself for having spread a little joy.
A.Doing something good can be very hard.
B.You praise it and show your admiration.
C.Generally,these fall into three categories.
D.Offering kindness can bring happiness.
E.There are a million ways to offer kindness.
F.People are encouraged to do random acts of kindness.
G.If you are kind to yourself,you will naturally be kinder to others.
√
上文说:作为一个简单的例子,让我们假设你有一个总是把工作做得很好的同事,下文说:你的同事会很高兴得到表扬,由此可推测,中间句应该表达你对同事的工作表示赞扬。故选B项。
解析
3 The idea behind this is that it doesn’t take any major plan to be kind,just a little bit of effort.They believe that kindness can be taught and that it is contagious(有感染力的).So by being kind to others,a more bright community and world will be created.
A.Doing something good can be very hard.
B.You praise it and show your admiration.
C.Generally,these fall into three categories.
D.Offering kindness can bring happiness.
E.There are a million ways to offer kindness.
F.People are encouraged to do random acts of kindness.
G.If you are kind to yourself,you will naturally be kinder to others.
√
下文说:这背后的想法是,变得善良不需要任何重大的计划,只要一点点努力,善意是可以被教导的,由此可知,此处应该提到鼓励人们去做一些随机的善举。故选F项。
解析
Some websites suggest more imaginative ways to show kindness. 4 The first is interpersonal kindness.
A.Doing something good can be very hard.
B.You praise it and show your admiration.
C.Generally,these fall into three categories.
D.Offering kindness can bring happiness.
E.There are a million ways to offer kindness.
F.People are encouraged to do random acts of kindness.
G.If you are kind to yourself,you will naturally be kinder to others.
√
由下文中的“The first...The second...The third...”可知,此空应提出有三种表达善意的做法。故选C项。
解析
Some examples are donating old clothes to charity or writing a positive online comment about a restaurant that you like.The second is environmental kindness,which could mean simply recycling or organizing a group event to clean a local park or beach.The third category is less obvious:personal kindness,which means treating yourself kindly.
Some examples are taking a walk in nature or setting yourself an objective to complain less. 5
A.Doing something good can be very hard.

D.Offering kindness can bring happiness.
E.There are a million ways to offer kindness.
F.People are encouraged to do random acts of kindness.
G.If you are kind to yourself,you will naturally be kinder to others.
√
上文说:第三种则不那么明显:个人善良,这意味着善待自己,由此可知,选项承接上文,说明善待自己的作用。故选G项。
解析
The Yungang Grottoes in Datong,Shanxi Province,1. UNESCO
World Heritage Site,have 45 major caves and more than 59,000 statues,with a grotto complex about 1 km long from east to west.
Ⅲ.语法填空
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了青岛市的云冈石窟艺术馆正在展出山西大同云冈石窟第3窟的巨型3D打印复制品。
a
考查冠词。根据句意,这里泛指联合国教科文组织的一个世界遗产地,且UNESCO的发音以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。故填a。
解析
2. (current),a giant 3D printing reproduction of Cave No.3 at the Yungang Grottoes is on display at the Yungang Grottoes Art Museum in Qingdao,east China’s Shandong Province.
Currently
考查副词。这里应用副词作状语修饰整个句子,currently意为“目前”,位于句首,首字母大写。故填Currently。
解析
This is the first time in the world that 3D printing technology 3.________
______(use) to reproduce such a large-scale cultural relic.
has been
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。This is the first time that...为固定句型,意为“这是第一次……”,从句应用现在完成时。根据句意,从句的主语为3D printing technology,单数,和动词use之间是动宾关系,所以应用被动语态,且谓语应用单数形式。故填has been used。
解析
used
The identical reproduction strictly matches the appearance and scale of the original.The copy of the cave 4. (measure) 17.9 meters tall by 13.6 meters wide,while the main statue stands at 9.93 meters tall.
measures
考查时态和主谓一致。主语为The copy of the cave,表示单数,measure在此处是系动词,表示“(尺寸、长短、数量等)量度为”,且此处表示客观事实,应用一般现在时,谓语应用单数形式。故填measures。
解析
During the replication process,3D technicians first collected some 10,000 images of the cave and the statues to build up a digital model,
5. was then divided into 842 parts to be printed with multiple 3D
6. (printer).
which
5.考查定语从句。分析句子结构,空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a digital model,指物,且在从句中作主语,所以应用which引导。故填which。
6.考查名词的数。printer“打印机”为可数名词,根据空前的multiple可知,这里应用名词复数。故填printers。
解析
printers
The final installation(安装) and coloring stages took the team three months 7. (complete).
to complete
考查不定式。sth takes/took sb some time to do sth为固定句型,意为“做某事花费某人多长时间”。逻辑主语the team和complete之间是主谓关系,所以应用不定式的一般式。故填to complete。
解析
The reproduction not only allows people to get much 8. (close) to the precious heritage items 9. damaging the original objects,but also helps to enhance the research,documentation,digitalization and preservation of the relics 10. (they).
closer
without
themselves
8.考查比较级。根据空前much和句意可知,空处应用比较级,表示“更加接近珍贵的文物”。故填closer。
9.考查介词。根据句意可知,这里是说在不损坏原始文物的情况下更接近珍贵的文物,应用介词without“无,不,没有”。故填without。
10.考查代词。根据空前的“the relics”可知,这里是说遗产本身,应用they的反身代词themselves表示强调。故填themselves。
