The day I got the keys should have been the most exciting day of my life and yet, the second I opened the door, panic set in. I

7、spent my first night as a homeowner in a hotel researching how to sell a flat and wondering if it was too late to change my mind.I didnt sell my flat because I remembered why I had wanted it in the first place 一 but there are times when we get what we want and it simply isnt right. Ive always found

8、a strange disconnect between wanting something and getting it. Wanting is a place of possibility and, in a state of lack, the desire is strong. We imagine how this thing a new job or relationship - can change our lives and at the same time forget that adding something to our life doesnt mean all our

9、 problems disappear. We create a narrative around the desire and, when we get it, and it is different to how we pictured it, we feel frustrated.For me, this most often occurs in relationships. I have a habit of filling in the gaps with people, rather than getting to know them. 1 go on a date with so

10、meone and, instead of piecing them together brick by brick, I start to imagine what my life would be like with them in it. It shouldnt have been a shock that the reality in no way matched my fantasy - but it was. I knew I wanted out, yet part of me felt committed: this was someone I thought I had wa

11、nted for so long, I couldnt walk away, could I?We tend to shame others for changing their minds. I think, however, its far braver to move towards something that will bring happiness than to stay in a miserable situation to protect your pride. So, when someone tells you theyve changed their minds, co

12、ngratulate them on knowing themselves well enough, and being strong enough, to admit it. It takes a lot to come clean about getting it wrong, but the relief of doing so of setting ourselves free from a personal-shaped hole, is worth it every time.5 .

15、while to protect one*s own pride.D. It is brave to step out of a miserable situation.7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A A new flatB. A personal-shaped holeC. A proud soulD. An unexcepted accidentIn the history of medicine, the ability to clean surgical instruments, by exposing them to hi

16、gh-pressure steam in an autoclave （高压蒸气灭菌器），has been essential to the development of modern surgery. A mere 12 minutes in an autoclave at 121 and two atmospheres of pressure kills 99.99% of common bacteria.Electrically powered autoclaves have, as a consequence, become so routine as to be almost unno

17、ticed at least in those places with a reliable electricity supply. Where electricity is not reliable, though, it can be hard to keep surgical instruments bacteria free. This is a problem to which Zhao Lin of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology thinks he may have an answer. As he and his collea

18、gues describe in Joule, they have designed an autoclave that is powered directly by sunlight. And not only that - they also estimate it should cost just a tenth as much to make commercially as a common equal - quality autoclave.Dr Zhaos device is a work of simplicity and cheap materials. It consists

19、 of a metre-long box of rectangular base, with two curved fins （鳍状物）of polished metal sticking out of the top. Each fin forms a section of a parabola （抛物线），and it is a property of parabolic mirrors to focus light from distant sources （the sun, for example） onto a single point 一 or, in the case of lo

20、ng and thin mirrors like these, onto a line.The new inventions principal trick is that these focused lines coincide with the edges of a metal plate within the box. This plate is part of a commercially available device called a fin-tube absorber. The absorbers other element is a metal pipe running al

21、ong the plates central point. The particular fins mean that any incident sunlight will continue to be focused onto the metal plate even when the sun is not directly overhead. Anything inside the pipe is therefore going to get 一 and stay 一 pretty hot.In tests carried out at a hospital in Mumbai, in p

22、artnership with the Indian Institute of Technology in that city, Dr Zhaos new autoclave was able to sustain steam at a temperature of 128 and two atmospheres of pressure for half an hour. When tested, a material used routinely to make sure autoclaves are working properly, it passed with flying colou

23、rs, meaning it would have successfully sterilized （7肖毒）anything within it.Demand for this product is likely to be high. Some 15% of hospital patients in low- and middle-income countries get infected. Dr Zhao therefore hopes to have commercial versions ready by 2022.8 . What did Dr Zhao expect to sol

24、ve?1. Electrically powered autoclaves cannot work without electricity.8. The high temperature needed to kill bacteria is inaccessible.9. The previous autoclaves are too complex and expensive.10. It is hard to keep surgical instruments bacteria free.11. What can we know about Dr Zhaos autoclave?A.It

25、iscomplex.B.It isportable.C.It isdelicate.D.It iseconomical.12. Which part of the device makes the incident sunlight continue to be focused?A.Thefins.B.Thepipe.C.Theplate.D.Thebase.13. What is most probably the next step of Dr Zhaos plan?A. To make the device to the market.B , To invent more to meet

26、 the demand.C. To put the device under observation.D. To send some devices to poor patients.Leg over leg, a furry brownish - black spider pulls on a single silk thread, tightening the frame of its web. It pulls and pulls and it waits. Minutes pass, sometimes hours. Then, when an unsuspecting insect

27、flies by, the spider releases the thread, springing itself and its satellite-shaped web toward its prey. All of this happens in the blink of an eye.Those eye-watering numbers led Georgia Tech chemical engineer Saad Bhamla to wonder: How are these tiny spiders achieving such fast movements? Then he s

28、tarted to investigate. He checked the literature and found only a few papers. The papers were decades old and only described the slingshot motion, not the speeds or G-forces the spiders experienced. So Bhamla enlisted the help of his assistant, Symone Alexander, and together they went out hunting fb

29、r spiders in the Amazon rainforest,Alexander says.After locating one of the spiders, which measures roughly 2 millimeters in length, the researchers would set up portable high-speed cameras with special lenses and record its motions. Then, either Alexander or Bhamla would snap their fingers to get t

30、he spider to launch itself through the air. Only later did the pair learn that a human finger-snap closely matches the frequency of a buzzing mosquito and that seemed to be the only frequency that set the spiders* spring off. Its just amazing that we can snap our fingers and get this magical thing J

31、 Bhamla says.Analyzing the footage, Alexander and Bhamla could watch exactly how the spider adjusted itself on the tension line at the front of its web. The speed and acceleration of this spider are impressive, but so is the fact that, unlike most web-building spiders, its actively hunting, Bhamla s

32、ays. “Its changed the function of its web, he says. Instead of waiting for something to bump into it, the spider is going after things actually catching flying insects in midair.14. What does the underlined word “preyTefer to?A. The web.B. The thread.C. The insect.D. The spider.15. What does the fir

33、st paragraph mainly describe?A. How a tiny spider achieves such fast movements.B , How a tiny spider catches an unsuspecting insect.C. What a tiny spider does to tighten the frame of its web.D. Why a tiny spider uses the thread to launch itself to hunt.16. What did the researchers do to capture the

34、motions of the spider?A. They checked quantities of literature before their hiking.B. They snapped their fingers acting as a buzzing mosquito.C. They set up portable high-speed cameras with normal lenses.D. They watched and analyzed the spidefs footprints on the web.17. Where is this text most likel

35、y from?A. A diary.B. A guidebook.C. A magazine.D. A science fiction.二、七选五Your guide to becoming the perfect gift giverTrying to find the perfect present is as difficult as trying to read someones mind. Few people will actually tell you what they want for a special occasion, and most of the time your

36、 loved ones will insist that they dont need or want anything! 16 Here are some tips that could help.Be honest - do you wait until the last minute to start looking for presents? 17 So are we! However, starting your shopping early can have a number of advantages. The closer it gets to holidays such as

37、 Christmas, the higher the prices creep up. So, if you wait too long, you might have to spend quite a bit more on what you want.18 Now is the time to put your thinking cap on as you make a list. Here, you can write down everything the receivers love. This can include food, hobbies, experiences, and

38、more 19 If you are lucky, you should be able to find a few good ideas in one of these lists. At the very least, you will have some ideas of which direction you should head off in.20 Often, the reason you get stuck for gift ideas is because you are restricting yourself too much. If you are only fixed

39、 on the same kind of presents then youll run out of inspiration. There really are many wonderful out - of - the - box ideas to select from. If a regular present isnt doing the trick, it may be time to think a little bigger. Instead of a physical gift, you can give someone an experience that they wil

40、l never forget.A. So what to do?B , You arc definitely not alone.C. Save your money by being an early bird.D. You will be able to give them the gift of friendship.E. If you are still coming up empty, it is time to get creative.F. What memory between the two of you stand out the most?G. Once you have

41、 done this, you can move onto the things they need.三、完形填空Kevin Barber was just 15 years old when he had an idea that would change downtown San Diego.

42、ng to 23 if there was some kind of work program or something that we do for the homeless instead of just 24 them with medicines, Dr. Barber said.One night, Barber found a TED Talk 25 A practical way to help the homeless find work and safety?9 The Talk 26 Barbers interest.

And tomake his dream
