On the Twentieth Century.B.I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, “I cant believe whats printed in the newspaper this morning,” made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, “The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A's on my tests. Occasionally, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn't enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.Yet, now that I'm growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don't have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.We're taught to read because it's necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I've found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.4. Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom's hands?A. She wanted mom to read the news to her.B. She was anxious to know what had happened.C. She couldn't wait to tear the newspaper apart.D. She couldn't help but stop mom from reading.5. According to Paragraph 3, the author's reading of road signs indicates _.A. her unique way to locate herselfB. her eagerness to develop her reading abilityC. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rulesD. her growing desire to know the world around her.6. What was the author's view on factual reading?A. It would help her update test-taking skills.B. It would allow much room for free thinking.C. It would provide true and objective information.D. It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.7. The author takes novel reading as a way to _.A. explore a fantasy land B. develop a passion for leaningC. learn about the adult community D. get away from a confusing world8. What could be the best title for the passage?A. The Magic of Reading B. The Pleasure of ReadingC. Growing Up with Reading D. Reading Makes a Full ManC. The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are. Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people, leading to them becoming more isolated (隔绝) and inactive. Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life. These include custom-made navigation (导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains: “For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others. ”“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to. ”Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains, “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.” “For example, most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. Were looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that. “We hope that our work will help with technological solutions (解决方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”9. What is the purpose of the Drivel AB?A. To explore new means of transport. B. To design new types of cars. C. To find out older drivers problems. D. To teach people traffic rules. 10. Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?A. It keeps them independent. B. It helps them save time. C. It builds up their strength. D. It cures their mental illnesses. 11. What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?A. Improve their driving skills. B. Develop driver-assist technologies. C. Provide tips on repairing their cars. D. Organize regular physical checkups.12. What is the best title for the text?A. A new Model Electric Car B. A Solution to Traffic ProblemC. Driving Service for elders D. Keeping Older Drivers on the RoadA语篇导读应用文。这篇文章对一些话剧的开幕和新剧首映进行了介绍。1. A细节理解题。根据话剧Animals Out of Paper的Productions and the Great Griffon present the play by Rajiv Joseph, in which an origami artist invites a teenage talent and his teacher into her studio.可知，Rajiv Joseph创作的的话剧是关于折纸的一种艺术。 2.

In these worlds I can become anyone.(打开一本小说，我可以摆脱我的负担，进入一个奇妙而神秘的世界，我现在是一个新的角色。在这个世界上，我可以成为任何人。) 可知，阅读小说可以让作者避开复杂的现实而投入到小说中的世界中去，故选D。8. 主旨大意题。根据上下文可知，作者以时间顺序回忆了自己的阅读经历和感悟，伴着阅读成长，故选项C符合题意。参考译文我肯定早就知道读书很重要，因为我幼时的记忆里总是与书打交道。在我的记忆里没有一天晚上不是妈妈陪在我床边给我读着一本故事书度过的。那些文字听上去简直是云锦天章，我深受感染。那时我一直想知道妈妈在读什么。有一次听妈妈说“我无法相信今天晨报上的刊登的东西”，我真想一下把书从妈妈手里夺过来自己读一读。我真想像妈妈一样读书，我渴望了解她所知道的一切。于是我便捧起书，每天晚上都装成妈妈在读书的样子。大家都是这样学会读书的。我们往往先从句子开始，然后段落，再然后故事。那就好像是一条不归路，不过，当时作为一个六岁我，已经意识到了一旦学会读书就可以打开许多许多扇门。当妈妈说“糖果往往藏在最高处的架子上”，我就懂了应该到哪里才能找到它。读书取得的进步激发起我的好奇心，我想知道一切。我常常禁不住再三告诉妈妈要把速度放缓一些，那样我就可以看清所有路过的标志。我上小学和中学时遇到的大多是事实性阅读，那都是课本知识，用于考试取得优异的成绩。偶尔我也读一读老师指定必读的小说，但是我并不喜欢那类阅读。我就是对具体事实感兴趣。我觉得任何抽象的东西遗留下太多的争议。然而，随着渐渐长大，在我眼中曾经那么简单的世界变得如此复杂，我想得寻个办法逃避一下。索性我便翻开一部小说，那样我就可以甩掉包袱，完全踏入美妙神奇的世界，在那里我发现了全新的我。在那里，我可以走进任何人的世界。我用不着记下发生的一切，也不必去思忖作者在写这部作品时用到的写作手法。只管读下去，只要能放松就行。好多情况下，人们要相互理解，阅读是不可替代品，所以我们要学会它。阅读已成为我生活中不可或缺的元素。阅读满足了我的求知欲。而且我还发现：书中蕴藏着无限的可能。C语篇导读研究者把一辆电动汽车变成一个移动的实验室以更好的知道老年人开车时遇到的问题。9. C细节理解题。文章第一句的.understand the challenges faced by old drivers and to discover where the key stress points are说明研究者研究的目的是了解老人司机面临的挑战和发现关键的问题在哪里。10. A细节理解题。文章第四段最后一句提到开车对于保持老年人的独立性是非常重要的，这也给老年人不依赖于别人而出去的自由。11. B推理判断题。文章第六段最后一句的.use technology to address these problems和文章最后一句都说明研究者这样做的目的是为发明帮助老年人驾驶的技术。12. D标题选项题。文章讲述的是研究者如何让老年人开车的问题，这个在文章首位两段都有体现。  参考译文纽卡斯尔大学的智能交通团队将一辆电动汽车变成了一个移动实验室，称其为“DriveLAB”，目的是了解老年司机所面临的挑战，并找到问题的关键所在。研究表明，老年人放弃开车是导致其健康状况和幸福指数下降的一个重要原因，也会让他们变得更加孤单和迟钝。由Phil Blythe教授带领的纽卡斯尔大学团队正致力于为老年司机研发车载技术，以期能够帮助他们在晚年生活中仍能继续驾车。这些技术包括定制导航工具、夜视仪和智能速度适应器。Phil Blythe解释道：“对于很多老年人来说，尤其是那些独自生活或者生活在乡村的老年人，开车对于维持他们的独立性来说非常重要，也能带给他们外出的自由，而不是只能依靠其他人。”“但是我们都不得不承认，随着我们年龄的增长，我们的反应速度会变慢，这就经常会导致人们选择避开任何可能有挑战性的驾驶状况，并对自己的驾驶技能失去信心。结果就是人们还没到真正需要放弃开车的时候，就停止开车了。”这项关于老年司机的研究的首席研究人员Amy Guo博士解释说：“DriverLAB正在帮助我们了解对于老年司机而言，关键问题和困难是什么，并让我们懂得可以怎样使用技术来解决这些问题。”“例如，我们大部分人都认为老年司机开车总是比其他所有人都慢，但是令人惊讶的是，我们发现他们在限速每小时30英里的路段会艰难地保持常速，从而更可能会超速，并面临被罚款的风险。我们正在查看那些能够控制老年司机的车速以预防这种情况发生的系统有何成效。”“我们希望在这一技术解决方案的帮助下，我们的工作会有助于确保老年司机安全驾驶。”练习二：完形填空+语法填空1. 完形填空 主题：高职高薪不等于成功 字数：357Since finishing my studies at Harvard and Oxford.
