一、阅读单选
A篇
Yang Zhenning is famous as one of the most influential physicists of the 21st century. Born in 1922 in China, Yang Zhenning grew up during a time of social change and national uncertainty. These early experiences shaped not only his career path, but also his understanding of the role that science plays in society.
In the 1940s, Yang studied physics at Southwest Associated University, one of the most important universities in China at that time. It provided him with a good base in physics. Later, he went to the USA to continue his studies. There, he worked very hard and made great achievements in physics. In 1957, Yang Zhenning won the Nobel Prize in Physics together with another physicist, Tsung-Dao Lee. They received the prize for their discovery about parity violation (宇称不守恒), which changed people’s understanding of the laws of nature. At that time, Yang was only 35 years old, making him one of the youngest Nobel winners in Physics.
Although Yang lived and worked in the USA for many years, he always cared deeply about China. He paid close attention to the development of science education in his home country. In his later years, Yang returned to China and worked at Tsinghua University. He hoped to help young Chinese students learn more about science and think independently (独立地). Instead of asking students to simply remember facts, he encouraged them to question and examine (检验) what’s already accepted. He suggested that the value of knowledge lies not only in the discovery itself, but also in how it is shared and used.
Yang Zhenning is gone, yet he’ll be remembered forever—not only for his science knowledge, but for his contributions (贡献) to education and his strong sense of duty to society.
1. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Teaching at Tsinghua University.
B. Going to the USA to continue his studies.
C. Growing up in a hard social environment.
D. Studying at Southwest Associated University.
2. What did Yang Zhenning encourage his students to do?
A. To get the Nobel Prize at a young age.
B. To remember important science facts.
C. To discover the true value of knowledge.
D. To go to another country for further study.
3. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Yang’s discovery of the parity violation.
B. Yang’s effort in science education in China.
C. Yang’s life journey and great achievements.
D. Yang’s winning of the Nobel Prize in Physics.
B篇
Do you know who was described as “superhuman” by the great inventor and astronomer Galileo? It was Archimedes who solved the king’s problem of the golden crown while taking a bath. He was perhaps one of the most outstanding scientists in the world. He was a mathematician, physicist, engineer, weapon designer and inventor. He was wise in philosophy, active in mathematics and physics. He was also recognized as one of the finest engineers of his time. He was born on the island of Sicily in the city of Syracuse around the year 287 BC and died in 212 BC.
Archimedes showed great love for mathematics. He made many discoveries. For example, he determined the approximate value of pi. He invented and developed methods similar to calculus (微积分) and used them to find the area of a circle and an accurate estimation (估计值) of the value of pi.
Today, he is regarded as one of the greatest mathematicians in history. Archimedes used his mathematical skills and talents to create useful inventions. One of his most famous inventions is called the Archimedes’ Screw. It was a device that could lift water to higher levels. One of its first uses was to pump water out of a leaking ship. It is still used today in some places to move water from low places to high places. This invention influenced Leonardo da Vinci as he worked on developing the functioning flying machine.
Can you imagine counting the sand in the universe? Archimedes once tried to calculate the number of sand grains in the universe. Obviously, it was impossible, but it goes to show that he was too smart. His intellectual curiosity and achievements in mathematics, in general, would go on to encourage other mathematicians as well. Most of his achievements were by far ahead of his time. Archimedes was indeed a genius.
1. According to paragraph 1, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. He was mainly known as a philosopher and a physicist.
B. He was only famous for his work in mathematics.
C. He was the best engineer in all of human history.
D. He was skilled in multiple scientific and engineering fields.
2. What’s the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. A brief introduction to Archimedes. B. Archimedes’ discoveries in maths.
C. The great inventions of Archimedes. D. Archimedes’ study on the universe.
3. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in paragraph 3?
A. A leaking ship. B. Water from low places.
C. The Archimedes’ Screw. D. The functioning flying machine.
4. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the article?
A. Archimedes was a man with many talents and died at the age of 75.
B. The Archimedes’ Screw helped lift water from lower places to higher places.
C. Leonardo da Vinci and Archimedes developed the functioning flying machine.
D. Archimedes’ achievements will continue to encourage generations of mathematicians.
5. What might be the best title for the article?
A. Archimedes and Inventions B. Archimedes and Mathematics
C. The hard work of Archimedes D. The Life Experience of Archimedes

【答案】1. C 2. D 3. A 4. A 5. B 6. B 7. C 8. B 9. A 10. C
【解析】本文讲述杂交水稻之父袁隆平院士的生平事迹,介绍他攻克粮食难题、培育杂交水稻,晚年还致力于研发海水稻,歌颂他伟大的奉献精神。
(1)题: 句意:他被称作“杂交水稻之父”,帮助养活全世界人民。
宾语people人民,feed“养活”符合语境,贴合水稻解决温饱的主题。provide“提供”、attract“吸引”、call “称呼”,均不符合粮食救人的逻辑。
(2)题: 句意:他如此伟大,许多人都敬佩他。
宾语him指代袁隆平,admired“敬佩”符合语境,贴合伟人受人爱戴的场景。reminded“提醒”、forgot“忘记”、punished“惩罚”,均搭配不通。
(3)题: 句意:在上个世纪,中国面临严峻的粮食问题。
后文1973年培育成功杂交水稻,century“世纪”符合时代背景逻辑。week“星期”、month“月份”、year“年份”时间跨度太短,不符合国情历史背景。
(4)题: 句意:袁隆平下定决心寻找解决这个难题的办法。
固定搭配be determined to do sth.下定决心做某事,determined“坚定的”贴合他攻坚克难的形象。interested“感兴趣的”、hopeful“满怀希望的”、angry“生气的”均无法体现克服困难的决心。
(5)题: 句意:他成为研究杂交水稻领域的先驱。
后文当时很多科学家不看好杂交水稻,pioneer“先驱,开拓者”符合语境。parent“父母”、audience“观众”、adult“成年人”均不符合科研人物身份。
(6)题: 句意:那时,许多科学家都认为杂交水稻不值得研究。
固定搭配be worth doing sth.值得做某事,结合全文研究水稻主题,studying“研究”符合语境。checking“检查”、eating“食用”、borrowing“借用”均和科研语境不匹配。
(7)题: 句意:最后,在1973年,他们成功培育出新型杂交水稻。
前文讲述日复一日坚持研究,Finally“最终”体现长久努力后的结果。Sadly“悲伤地”、Greatly“极大地”、Nicely“美好地”无法承接多年钻研终获成功的逻辑。
(8)题: 句意:这种水稻生命力强,能够抵御病害。
后一句说明农民无需大量使用农药,disease“病害”和农药除虫防病对应。weather“天气”、nature“自然”、flood“洪水”均和农药用途无关。
(9)题: 句意:它的产量比普通水稻高得多。
修饰主语output产量,higher“更高的”是产量的常用搭配。taller“(植株)更高”、slower“更慢的”、less“更少的”都不能形容粮食产量。

一、阅读单选
A篇
Yang Zhenning is famous as one of the most influential physicists of the 21st century. Born in 1922 in China, Yang Zhenning grew up during a time of social change and national uncertainty. These early experiences shaped not only his career path, but also his understanding of the role that science plays in society.
In the 1940s, Yang studied physics at Southwest Associated University, one of the most important universities in China at that time. It provided him with a good base in physics. Later, he went to the USA to continue his studies. There, he worked very hard and made great achievements in physics. In 1957, Yang Zhenning won the Nobel Prize in Physics together with another physicist, Tsung-Dao Lee. They received the prize for their discovery about parity violation (宇称不守恒), which changed people’s understanding of the laws of nature. At that time, Yang was only 35 years old, making him one of the youngest Nobel winners in Physics.
Although Yang lived and worked in the USA for many years, he always cared deeply about China. He paid close attention to the development of science education in his home country. In his later years, Yang returned to China and worked at Tsinghua University. He hoped to help young Chinese students learn more about science and think independently (独立地). Instead of asking students to simply remember facts, he encouraged them to question and examine (检验) what’s already accepted. He suggested that the value of knowledge lies not only in the discovery itself, but also in how it is shared and used.
Yang Zhenning is gone, yet he’ll be remembered forever—not only for his science knowledge, but for his contributions (贡献) to education and his strong sense of duty to society.

Do you know who was described as “superhuman” by the great inventor and astronomer Galileo? It was Archimedes who solved the king’s problem of the golden crown while taking a bath. He was perhaps one of the most outstanding scientists in the world. He was a mathematician, physicist, engineer, weapon designer and inventor. He was wise in philosophy, active in mathematics and physics. He was also recognized as one of the finest engineers of his time. He was born on the island of Sicily in the city of Syracuse around the year 287 BC and died in 212 BC.
Archimedes showed great love for mathematics. He made many discoveries. For example, he determined the approximate value of pi. He invented and developed methods similar to calculus (微积分) and used them to find the area of a circle and an accurate estimation (估计值) of the value of pi.
Today, he is regarded as one of the greatest mathematicians in history. Archimedes used his mathematical skills and talents to create useful inventions. One of his most famous inventions is called the Archimedes’ Screw. It was a device that could lift water to higher levels. One of its first uses was to pump water out of a leaking ship. It is still used today in some places to move water from low places to high places. This invention influenced Leonardo da Vinci as he worked on developing the functioning flying machine.
Can you imagine counting the sand in the universe? Archimedes once tried to calculate the number of sand grains in the universe. Obviously, it was impossible, but it goes to show that he was too smart. His intellectual curiosity and achievements in mathematics, in general, would go on to encourage other mathematicians as well. Most of his achievements were by far ahead of his time. Archimedes was indeed a genius.
1. According to paragraph 1, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. He was mainly known as a philosopher and a physicist.
B. He was only famous for his work in mathematics.
C. He was the best engineer in all of human history.
D. He was skilled in multiple scientific and engineering fields.
2. What’s the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. A brief introduction to Archimedes. B. Archimedes’ discoveries in maths.
C. The great inventions of Archimedes. D. Archimedes’ study on the universe.
3. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in paragraph 3?
A. A leaking ship. B. Water from low places.
C. The Archimedes’ Screw. D. The functioning flying machine.
4. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the article?
A. Archimedes was a man with many talents and died at the age of 75.
B. The Archimedes’ Screw helped lift water from lower places to higher places.
C. Leonardo da Vinci and Archimedes developed the functioning flying machine.
