MangoBI lost my phone when I was on holiday four months ago. With no phone to use on my way back to Milan, I decided to buy a book at the airport before boarding the plane. There was a discount on Stephen Hawking’s Brief Answers to the Big Questions, and while not necessarily an easy read for the non-reader I was at the time, it touched on some of the subjects I’m most passionate (感興趣的) about so I decided it was worth the £5.99. I paid for it. To my great surprise, I read the whole book on that two-hour return flight — and so my love for reading began. I was confused. Before then, I used to buy books fairly often, hoping I’d read them, knowing months would go by and I wouldn’t even open them. So I wondered. What was different this time? After carefully analyzing (分析) the situation, I came up with an explanation.Now I realize, most books on my reading list as a child came from one of three places: suggested books, school books, and “to read before you die” books. As a kid, I didn’t have much experience when it came to books or reading. So when I decided to pick up a book, I thought these were the ones I should read and I believed I would surely enjoy them. Then I ended up thinking of myself as someone that simply didn’t like reading.It is obvious, in hindsight (在事后看來), that I actually really enjoyed reading. The few times I got to skim through a book that felt right, I would devour (如饑似渴地讀) the whole thing in a matter of hours.Many people approach reading in the wrong way, so they finally end up disliking it the way I did. Keep on reading books you don’t like, and you’ll eventually make yourself believe it is reading you don’t like. So just make sure, you are reading books that touch on subjects you are actually passionate about — don’t be scared to create your unique bookshelf.What surprised the author?A. He lost his phone.B. The book was very cheap.C. The book was easy to read.D. He finished reading the book.What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2?Explore ways to create a reading list.Introduce his particular taste in books.Explain why he used to be a non-reader.Analyze how children’s books are classified.What books does the author advise people to read?Those that attract their interest.Those that enrich their knowledge.Those that are popular among readers.Those that are written by best-selling authors.What is the best title for text?A. Learning from a Great BookB. How I Fell in Love with Reading
CEngineers and scientists at the University of Texas at Austin have developed a unique solution to help people in these areas get clean drinking water.They developed a low-cost gel film (凝膠膜) that can pull water from the air in even the driest climate (氣候). Just one kilogram of gel can collect up to six liters of water in a dry climate. For those living in a climate with relative humidity (潮濕), one kilogram of gel can collect up to 13 liters of water a day. As the gel is so inexpensive and easy to make, it may offer a way of providing drinking water to countries with water shortages.Researchers have harvested fresh water from fog and dew before, but that only serves areas with high humidity. Other attempts at pulling water from desert air require lots of energy and do not produce much. In fact, this gel is a big improvement from earlier water harvesting technologies. The maximum water harvested has been 5.87 liters in places with relative humidity. This new gel doubles this amount, uses no energy and is simple to operate.“This new work is about practical solutions that people can use to get water in the hottest, driest places on Earth,” said Guihua Yu, professor at the Cockrell School of Engineering. “This could allow millions of people without access to drinking water to have simple, water generating devices (取水裝置) at home that they can easily operate.”“This is not something you need an advanced degree to use,” the paper’s lead author, Youhong ““Nancy” Guo said. ““It′s straightforward enough that anyone can make it at home if they have the materials.” Scientists are planning on making a thicker gel that will increase the production, making this technology a practicable solution to drought.What do we know about the gel film from paragraph 2?It can increase the humidity of the air.It can harvest drinking water from the air.It has been widely applied in desert areas.It costs lots of money and energy to produce.What is Guihua Yu’s attitude towards the new water-harvesting method?A. Unconcerned.B. Doubtful.C. Objective.D. Hopeful.What does the underlined word “ “straightforward” in last paragraph mean?A. easy.B. funny.C. good .D. cheapWhat will scientists plan to do next?Develop a thicker gel.Produce the gel on a large scale (規(guī)模).Raise money for further research.Teach people to make the gel at home.DAs Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夾). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory”.According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize large amounts of information so that they are able to find it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.Why does the passage begin with two questions?A. To describe how to use the Internet.B. To introduce the main topic.C. To show the author’s attitude.D. To explain how to store information. What can we learn about the first experiment?Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.The two groups remembered the information equally well.The second group did not understand the information.The first group did not try to remember the information.What do people tend to do in transactive memory?Remember how to find the information.Keep the information in mind.Change the quantity of information.Organize information like a computer.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s research?We are becoming more intelligent.B. We have poorer memories than before.C. We are using memory differently.D. We need a better way to get information.第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題3分,滿分15分)閱讀下面短文,從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為 多余選項。Recess (課間休息) for KidsAsk a group of kids about their favorite part of the school day and many will talk about something that happened at recess. Maybe they finally made it across the monkey bars (單杠). Maybe somebody kicked the ball over the fence. Maybe a fruit tree in a neighboring yard started to drop apples on the playground. 36It’s true not just according to kids, but also to adults who study recess for kids. Whether they’re inventing a new game or sitting under a tree, kids need a break — or several of them — during the school day.Why Kids Need Recess.There’s no debate that recess, or mainly referred to as physical activity, is good for kids.You can’t have your brains go hours at a time and store information in working memory. 37 Besides, activity that involves arms and legs — running, climbing, crawling — builds new neural (神經(jīng)的)connections, which helps kids regulate their emotions. Studies show that after recess children are more attentive in class, perform better and have fewer emotional problems. How Much Recess Should Kids Get.“Ideally, children should get four 15-minute recesses every day”, says Debbie Rhea, a professor from Texas Christian University, who advocates (提倡) for outdoor play in schools. 38It is noted that Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have recently expanded the idea to encourage recess for all students, including those in middle and high school.__39____In addition to simply providing enough time for recess, schools should teach skills that will make recess more successful. For instance, letting kids run fast will help them develop coordination. 40 And even falling, is something kids need to practice to avoid getting badly hurt. To allow children to take reasonable risks with their bodies is also a wise move.A. How to Make Recess Better.Who should help kids recess.You need time away to process it.This recommendation has been widely accepted.Any one of these things is a marker of a good recess.Maybe running up the slide is not as unsafe as it looks.We wouldn’t have kids sitting there for math or reading for long hours.第三部分 語言運用(共兩節(jié),滿分37.5分) 第一節(jié)(共15小題;每小題1.5分,滿分22.5分)閱讀下面短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選 項。One of my clients (客戶) recently said that his wife was of the opinion that he shouldn’t hire a coach to help him create a more 41 life; he should be able to do it by himself.Has anyone ever said something 42 to you? Or perhaps you have said it to yourself? When I talk to people about making changes in their life, they would 43 say something like “but shouldn't I do this 44__?However, the opposite is 45. The most successful people get as much help as they needto 46 their goal. Take Ellen MacArthur for example, the fastest female and youngest sailor to race around the world solo, non-stop. While she 47 around the world by herself, she also had advisors, trainers, sponsors, and a support team to help her. She once said, “It’s always been about a 48, so I have to thank my partners, friends, and supporters. 49 them, I would be nowhere.”Many people 50 that “if you have help to achieve something then it 51 that achievement” It is a common 52, however, and one that I would 53 you to stay away from. So next time you hear a phrase like “you should do it on your own”, either from someone else or in your head, 54 yourself immediately that it is not helpful and focus on 55 for the help you need to get to where you want to go.41.
