0分）第 一 节（共 15小 题；每 小 题 2.5分，满 分 37.5分）阅 读 下 列 短 文，从 每 题 所 给 的 A、B、C、D 四 个 选 项 中 选 出 最 佳 选 项。AJohannes GutenbergJohannes Gutenberg,who was born around the year 1400 in Germany,is widely regarded asthe inventor of the modern printing press.Before about 1450,most books were written or copiedby hand.This made them extremely time-consuming to produce and expensive to buy.But in 1455Gutenberg developed a machine which could print multiple copies of the same book.Theseprinted books were sold for 30 florins each,and although this represented three years wages foran average office worker at the time,it was still considerably cheaper than a handwritten book.Gutenberg did not achieve financial success as a result of his breakthrough-the rich at that timeregarded printed books as inferior and preferred handwritten works-but his invention helped tospread knowledge across Europe and was a major factor in the Renaissance.Louis BrailleBorn in France in 1809,Louis Braille became blind at the age of three after an accident in hisfather workshop.When he was ten,he earned a place at a special school for blind children inParis one of the first institutions of its kind in the world.Although this saved Louis from thenormal fate of the blind at that time-begging for money on the streetslife at the school was noteasy or comfortable.In 1821,Charles Barbiera,former soldier visited the school and talked abouta code that hed invented which allowed soldiers to share infbnnation on the battlefield withoutspeaking.The code used dots that could felt with the fingertips.Impressed by this idea,Louisworked on his own code to help the blind read using one of his father tools to make thedots-the same kind of tool that had caused him to lose his sight twenty years earlier.The codethat Louis invented has become standard throughout the world.Samuel MorseSamuel Morse,bom in 1791 in Massachusetts,USA,started his career not as an inventor but2as an artist.He had great artistic talent and soon became well known for his portraits,but he alsohad a passion for new technology.In 1832,while travelling home by sea from Europe,heoverheard a conversation about electromagnetism,and this gave him the idea for a new form ofcommunication the electric telegraph.Although other inventors had developed similar machine,Morses worked better and he applied for and got the patent in 1837.Alexander Graham BellA pioneer in the field of telecommunications,Alexander Graham Bell was born in 1847 inEdinburgh,Scotland.He moved to Canada and then to the United States settling in Boston,beforebeginning his career as an inventor.Perhaps because of his mothers hearing problems,Bell had aparticular interest in the education of deaf people.This led him to invent the microphone,and,in 1876,his“electrical speech machine,which we now call a telephone.Bell was not the onlyinventor working in this field,but his lawyer managed to secure the all-important patent whichgave Bell ownership of the idea.1.According to the passage,what do the four people have in common?A.All of them had several failures before their success.B.All of them had a miserable life at the beginning.C.All of them are pioneers in their own areas.D.All of them made a big fortune in life.2.had another career before starting to invent.A.Johannes Gutenberg B.Louis BrailleC.Samuel Morse D.Alexander Graham Bell3.Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?A.Louis Braille was inspired by a military invention.B.Johannes Gutenberg had a difficult time during his education.C.Samuel Morse helped to educate people in many countries.D.Alexander Graham Bell suffered a terrible injury at a young age.BIn some ways,learning to programme a computer is similar to learning a new language.Itrequires learning new symbols and terms,which must be organized correctly to instruct thecomputer what to do.The computer code must also be clear enough that other programmers canread and understand it.In spite of those similarities,MIT neuroscientists（神 经 科 学 家）have found that readingcomputer code doesnt activate the regions of the brain that are involved in language processing.Instead,it activates a distributed network called the multiple demand network,which is alsorelated to complex tasks such as solving maths problems or crossword puzzles.Although reading computer code activates the multiple demand network,it appears to relymore on different parts of the network than maths or logic problems do.Understanding compulercode seems to be its own thing.It isnt the same as language,and it isnt the same as maths andlogic/5 says Anna Ivanova,an MIT graduate student and the lead author of the study.Evelina Fedorenko is the senior author of the paper,which appears today in eLife.A majorfocus of her research is the relationship between language and other cognitive functions.Inparticular,she has been studying the question of whether other functions rely on the brainslanguage network,which includes Brocas area and other regions in the left hemisphere（半 球）of3the brain.In previous work,her lab has shown that music and maths dont appear to activate thislanguage network.There are two schools of thought regarding how the brain learns to code,she says.One holdsthat in order to be good at programming,you must be good at maths.The other suggests thatbecause of the parallels between coding and language,language skills might be more relevant.Toclarify this issue,the researchers set out to study whether brain activity patterns while readingcomputer code would overlap（重 叠）with language-related brain activity.1.Whafs paragraph 1 mainly about?A.The computer must be instructed what to do.B.Programming requires new symbols and terms.C.The computer code must be clear and understandable.D.There are similarities between programming and language learning.2.What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 mean?A.Reading computer code is different from other cognitive tasks.B.Learning languages is different from learning maths or logic.C.Language,maths and logic are relatively easier to learn.D.Reading computer code is more challenging.3.What might the researchers do next?A.Set up two schools to study how the brain learns to code.B.Research deeper into the parallels between coding and language.C.Figure out the relationship between programming and learning maths.D.Compare activity patterns of reading code with those of learning language.4.What field can the research findings be applied to?A.Health.B.Commerce.C.Education.D.Medicine.CAnimal keepers use the term enrichment to describe the introduction of environmental stimuliinto the surroundings of caged animals.In recent years,environmental enrichment“also knownas behavioral enrichment,providing animals with challenges,opportunities,and stimulation thatare species-appropriate,has grown more popular in zoos and aquariums.A latest study does,however,identify potential to diversify the enrichment types being supplied and the species beingexamined.”The study conducted by the University of Exeter and Sparsholt College,Hampshire,lookedinto whether zoo enrichment is based on evidence of what each species requires.It was discoveredthat this was true for specific animals as well as certain forms of enrichment,but the quantities ofboth could be larger,especially the samples of certain species of animals.Based on our findings,we would encourage zoos to continue enrichment,but with a stronger emphasis on using availableknowledge on what works for each species.Keepers should also consider what behaviors arebeing taught and whether there is evidence that this behavior is normal and good in the long run.,stated University of Exeters Dr.Paul Rose.The research looked at a database of peer-reviewed works as well as two magazines for zooworkers.Almost 77 percent of the enrichment articles identified focused on mammals,with 1 1percent on birds,6 percent on considerable species,4 percent on reptiles,and only a few on someother species.This emphasis on popular species may result in greater and higher-quality4enrichment for some species than others.Whats more,in the case of mammals,the application ofbiological evidence to inform this enrichment was inconsistent.There are many ways to enrich an animafs surroundings such as adjusting animal care,forming social groups,and enhancing sensory stimulation.The purpose of any enrichmentprogram should be to generate ideas for providing a species-appropriate stimulating environmentthat encourages positive behaviors while keeping in mind that both species and individuals willhave varied demands.1.What does the latest study mentioned in the passage want to figure out?A.The real situation of zoo enrichment.B.The final evidence of zoo enrichment.C.The possible future of zoo enrichment.D.The original purpose of zoo enrichment.2.How did the writer prove his statement in paragraph 3?A.By giving a database.B.By doing persuasion.C.By discussing the data.D.By presenting an example.3.What are not enough about the environmental enrichment according to the passage?A.The lasting challenges and opportunities.B.The space of the zoos and the keepers9 knowledge.C.The enrichment types,the animal species and numbers.D.The stimuli the keepers give and the articles the keepers write.4.Which could be the best title of this passage?A.More Zoo Keepers Should Be DevelopedB.Enrichment of Zoos Could Be ExpandedC.Articles on Enrichment Could Be PublishedD.Environmental Enrichment Should Be EncouragedDMany people believe that teaching children music makes them smarter and better able tolearn new things.An estimated 80 percent of American adults think music lessons improvechildrens ability to learn or their performance in school.They say that the satisfaction for learningto play a new song helps a child express creativity.But the organizers of a new study say theresno scientific evidence that early musical training affects the intelligence of young people.Researchers at Harvard University,have found that musical training does not make childrenmore intelligent.Samuel Mehr is a graduate student at Harvard School of Education.He said it is erroneousto think that learning to play a musical instrument improves a childs intellectual development.He does not believe that IQ is a good measure of a childs intelligence.He says researchers inhis study compared how well children in the music training group did on mental processing tasksor projects,and then the results were compared to those of children who did not take musiclessons.There was no evidence that the musical training group did much better on the mentaltasks than the other group.The researchers confirmed their results with a larger group of childrenand their parents.1.In order to improve childrens intelligence,most of American adults might.A.ask them to play sports B.motivate them to think outside the boxC.take them to sigh up for choirs D.encourage them to do research on music2.What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 probably mean?5A.Reasonable.B.Essential.C.Evident.D.Incorrect.3.How does the researchers conduct the study?A.By testing childrens IQ.B.By analyzing childrens behaviors.C.By making contrasts among children.D.By tracking children5s school performances.4.Which column might the passage be taken from?A.Education.B.Art.C.Entertainment.D.Society.第 二 节（共 5 小 题；每 小 题 2.5分，满 分 12.5分）阅 读 下 面 短 文，从 短 文 后 的 选 项 中 选 出 可 以 填 入 空 白 处 的 最 佳 选 项。选 项 中 有 两 项 为 多 余 选 项。A Few Tips for Self-AcceptanceWe all
