B 式用 Ernst Mach was a weak child,born in Moravia (now Czechia)in 1838.He didn't even go to school until the age of 14.Instead,his parents educated him at home.Like many genius children,his teachers criticized him,calling him"unteachable,absolutely talentless."Yet young Mach excelled at university in Vienna.He studied mathematics, physics and philosophy.He was also boundlessly curious.He conducted all kinds of experiments,believing that theories must be tried,tested,and proven in facts,but first formulated in the mind.He brought this rigorous approach to his studies,believing that true science is based on what actually happens and can be observed. In addition to his work in the sciences,Mach was also a well-rounded student,with interests in philosophy and even sports.He was an excellent boxer and fencer,which reflected the wide range of his abilities and interests. As a teacher,Mach was serious and demanding.That was the model of pedagogy (of his time,and Mach followed this standard:tight collar,buttoned-down tie,waistcoat and jacket,and serious eyes behind wire- framed glasses.He expected exactness from his students.Among those he influenced was the young Albert Einstein. Mach's insistence on clarity and rigorous testing of ideas helped shape Einstein's thinking.Though Mach was doubtful about some of Einstein's later conclusions,such as E=mc2,his doubt drove Einstein to prove his ideas further. He pushed the young Einstein to achieve excellence. While Mach is credited with many theories of his own,including the aircraft velocity (measurement that 高二英语月 bears his name,"Mach 1.Mach 2,etc.",his mentorship of Einstein is perhaps his greatest achievement.The best teachers in our lives also challenge us and see us as not yet complete but full of potential.They shine a light on the path that gets us to a successful reality.And through us,they live on. 24.What can we know about Ernst Mach from paragraph 1? A.He attended university at the age of 14. B.He was considered a genius by his teachers. C.His early education was coached by his parents.D.His physical disability discouraged his study ing. 25.How did Ernst Mach impact Albert Einstein? A.He challenged Einstein to excel.B.He forced Einstein to give in. C.He introduced new theories to Einstein.D.He inspired Einstein to focus on physics. 26.Which can best describe Ernst Mach? A.Cautious and ambitious. B.Professional and influential. C.Diligent and dependent D.Incredible and accessible. 27.Which of the following can best describe the text? A.Suffering is the best teacher. B.Great minds think alike. C.Two heads are better than one. D.A great teacher produces a brilliant student. C When danger approaches,many creatures seem to follow the ancient saying that the enemy of my enemy is my friend.Researchers have recently been finding complex ways that animals communicate with other species in such situations. For example,a recent study in Nature Ecology Evolution documented more than 20 bird species on four continents that give off virtually identical“whining”calls when they spot brood parasites(巢寄生物)such as cuckoos. That call is essentiallythe word forcuckoo,says study co-lead author James Kennerley,a wildlife biologist at Cornell University."And it's rounding up individuals to come together against this common enemy." Brood parasites lay eggs in other birds'nests,tricking the host parents into raising their chicks for them.At a field site in Australia,Kennerley has witnessed individuals from a dozen or more species attack a cuckoo in response to a chorus of whining calls.These attacks can be so violent that Kennerley and his coworkers need to cage the cuckoo used in their experiments to protect it. Many birds also share a common vocabulary for predators ()Research by wildlife ecologist Erick Greene,a professor at the University of Montana,and others shows that various songbirds producerecognizable"seet'' calls to alert others to an eagle in flight.The calls are at a frequency too high for eagles to detect well,so the predators remain oblivious as information about their arrival shoots through the forest.If the eagle stops on a branch,songbirds switch to"mobbing"'calls,a distinct vocalization that,as Greene puts it,"draws in the other birds to drive that eagle off.” Cooperative defense is not the only reason for cross-species communication.Among other things,it may help birds enhance food intake.A recent study found that when seabirds with good vision,such as albatrosses,hunt with seabirds with strong senses of smell,such as petrels,they both have far greater success at catching small shellfish. Clearly,"information is constantly traded between different kinds of animals,which is a fundamental ecological phenomenon,”Greene says.“It can be life-saving.” 28.What is the main purpose of birds'"whining"calls? A.To attract female mates. B.To defend their own nests. C.To indicate food sources. D.To signal their newborns. 29.What does the underlined word"oblivious"in paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Unbearable. B.Unconcerned. C.Unaware. D.Uncertain. 214 30.Why do seabirds like albatrosses and petrels cooperate? A.They try to improve feeding efficiency B.They defend against common predators. 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） C.They need to establish a shared territory D.They learn hunting skills from each other 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 31.What do Greene's words in the last paragraph stress?

"Your project,she announced in class one day,"is to create a simple app that solves a real-life problem."You have one week to prepare,"she added gently,hoping this would give us enough time to find inspiration and finish the project. The challenge stayed with me as I walked to my neighbor Mrs.Thompson's apartment after school.She had invited me for tea,as she often did on Tuesdays.Mrs.Thompson was kind and cheerful,but lately she had been a little forgetful,often misplacing her keys or repeating the same story twice without realizing it.When I arrived,she was in the kitchen. "Mae!Good timing,"she greeted me warmly,and then stopped,glancing at the kettle."Did I already boil water for tea?' I checked the kettle-it was still warm.We laughed about it as I poured water,and soon we were chatting.Our conversation turned to her weekly book club with fiends.Mrs.Thompson smiled,talking about her two old friends. Mr.Brown arrived late for the game,and Mrs.Smith failed to bring her glasses twice."We're quite a group,"she said. Then her expression grew thoughtful."We manage,of course.But sometimes I think wouldn't it be nice if something simply reminds us?Take medicine.Water the plants.Friday for book club."She tapped her head with a soft laugh. Her words sank in.At that moment,an idea formed in my mind.As I stood up to leave.I smiled mysteriously "Give me a few days,and I'll bring you a little surprise. “Oh？I'll try not to forgot that,”she laughed 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右： 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night,I sat at my desk,notebook open and mind racing with details A week later,I presented my project to Ms.Davis. 考 4/4
