A

Here are some great people and their achievements.

Mary Anderson — windscreen wiper

Back on a freezing winter’s day in 1902, Mary Anderson was travelling by train through New York City. Snow was falling, forcing the driver to stop repeatedly and get out to clear it. Each time the door opened, Mary suffered a gust of sub-zero air. She had an idea: why not make some kind of a rubber blade that could be operated from inside the vehicle? And that’s exactly what she did.

Josephine Cochrane — dishwasher

The dishwasher dates back even earlier to the 19th century, and to the dinner parties thrown by a lady called Josephine Cochrane. As a frequent host, she wanted a machine that could wash dishes faster than people. Her response was to develop what was to become the first commercially successful dishwasher. Interestingly, innovation was in her blood: her grandfather had invented the steamboat.

Stephanie Kwolek — Kevlar

Kevlar is the lightweight fibre used in bulletproof vests. The material is used by millions every day and has saved countless lives. The super tough fabric is also used in objects ranging from gloves to airplanes. Incredibly, its strength-to-weight ratio(比强度) is five times higher than steel. Again, it was invented by a woman, the American chemist Stephanie Kwolek, in 1964.

Grace Hopper — first compiler(编译程序)

One of the most important inventions of the 20th century must surely be the computer programme. The world of programming is unbalanced in terms of gender. Men vastly outnumber women, and take home around 30% more pay than their female counterparts on average. But back in the 1940s and 1950s, women were at the forefront of this new field. Grace Hopper is credited with inventing the first compiler in 1952, which serves as the bridge between code and the binary(二进制的) ones and zeros understood by computers. 21. What do the inventions mentioned in the passage have in common?

Sharon recently had a good year for tomatoes. She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they had begun to feel their skin turn slightly red. That’s when she decided it was time to share her blessings. She started calling everyone she knew. When that failed, she began asking everyone in the neighborhood, eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes. "Feel free to take whatever you want," Sharon told her. Later that day, Sharon found that her garden had indeed been harvested. She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn’t go to waste.

A few days later, the neighbor knocked at the door holding a loaf of bread, smiling, "I want to thank you for all of the tomatoes, and I have to admit that I took a few other things and hoped you wouldn’t mind." Sharon couldn’t think of anything else in her garden that had been worth harvesting and said so. "Oh, but you did," the neighbor said. "You had some of the prettiest zucchinis(西葫芦) I’ve ever seen."

Sharon was confused. They hadn’t even planted any zucchini. But her neighbor insisted that there really were bright-green zucchinis in her garden. Sharon felt curious and decided to go to see where the zucchinis had grown. The two of them walked together into the backyard. When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables, Sharon

smiled, "Well, actually, those are cucumbers that we never harvested, because they got too big, soft and bitter for eating."

The neighbor looked at Sharon. She gulped(倒吸气) a few times, and then, smiling, held out the bread, part of a batch(一批) she had shared all over the neighborhood, "I brought you a nice loaf of cucumber bread. I hope you Traditionally, Americans expect to finish their schooling, get a job, and then move out of their parents’ home as soon as they become financially independent. Unlike in other countries where it is common for adult children to live with their parents until they marry, or even after they are married, in the U.S., adults living with their parents after graduating and getting a job is not the typical pattern.

The term "boomerang kids" refers to adult children who move back into their parents’ house after a period of living on their own.

英语试题 第3页(共10页) However, things may be changing. The current generation of young adults are being called the "boomerang generation" because the lack of jobs has driven many of them to move back in with their parents, after having lived on their own while in college or after getting a full-time job. Fewer parents are experiencing what we sometimes call an "empty nest", a home where the adult children leave and only the parents remain.

In a study conducted by the Pew Research Center in 2011, about 30% of people ages 25 to 34 reported that they had moved back with their parents at one time or another. While many of these adult children say that this is a satisfactory situation, with over 75% of these young adults saying they like their living arrangement, sometimes it’s not easy for the parents. 65% parents say that it is difficult to adjust to the return of their children, especially when deciding how much help to give them.

How does this living arrangement affect the relationships between parents and adult children? About a quarter of the young adults say that their relationship with their parents has improved, a quarter say it has worsened, and about 50% say it hasn’t had any effect either way.

28. What does the underlined phrase "boomerang kids" in the first paragraph mean? A. People who are adults but quite mentally childish.

B. People who can save little money at the end of every month. C. People who care about their parents by living with them. D. People who still live on their parents when growing up. 29. What’s the traditional pattern in America?

A. Young adults live with their parents after graduation. B. Young adults find a full-time job with their parents’ help. C. Young adults live on their own and support themselves. D. Young adults go to college to get a degree.

30. What may lead to the "boomerang generation" phenomenon? A. The tight employment market. B. Parents’ overprotection.

You’ll probably never go to Mars or sing on the stage with the Rolling Stones. But if virtual reality (VR) ever lives up to its promise, you might be able to do all these things — and many more — without even leaving your home. Unlike real reality, VR means simulating(模拟) bits of our world. Apart from games and entertainment, it’s long been used for training airlines pilots and doctors and for helping scientists to figure out complex problems such as the structure of protein molecules. Then how does it work?

Close your eyes and think of VR and you probably picture something like this: a man wearing a wrap-around headset and data gloves wired(用线连接) into a powerful workstation or supercomputer. What makes VR different from an ordinary computer experience is the nature of the input and output. Where an ordinary computer uses things like a keyboard, mouse, or speech recognition for input, VR uses sensors(传感器) that find out how your body is moving. And where a PC displays output on a screen, VR uses two screens (one for each eye), surround-sound speakers, and maybe some forms of touch and body feedback as well.

VR has been generally used by scientists, doctors, dentists, engineers, architects, archaeologists, and the army for about the last 30 years. Difficult and dangerous jobs are hard to train for. How can you safely practice taking a trip to space, making a jump from an airplane, or carrying out a brain operation? All these things are obvious applications of VR.

Like any technology, VR has both good and bad points. Critics always warn that people may be addicted to

alternative realities to the point of ignoring their real-world lives — but that criticism has been aimed at everything from radio and TV to computer games and the Internet. Like many technologies, VR takes little or nothing away from the real world: you don’t have to use it if you don’t want to.

32. According to the passage, which of the following is a kind of virtual reality? A. Flying high in the sky in your dream. B. Traveling in space by spaceship in a lab. C. Working out a math problem by yourself.

英语试题 第5页(共10页)

D. Practicing swimming in a pool.

33. What equipment does virtual reality use for input? A. A keyboard.

B. A speaker.

C. A screen.

D. Sensors.

34. TV is mentioned in the last paragraph to _____________. A. prove everything has good and bad points

B. show the difference between virtual reality and other technologies C. advise us to make use of virtual reality

D. warn people not to be addicted to alternative realities 35. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The importance of virtual reality.

B. The difference between real reality and virtual reality. C. The principles and applications of virtual reality. D. The equipment needed for virtual reality. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

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。 No one can deny the importance of honesty. Parents must try their best to teach their children to be honest from the early age. 36 But this simple guide contains all the best possible methods to teach your children to be honest.

Talk to your children about honesty.

Sit with your children and let them know about the importance of honesty. 37 So try to highlight its importance with the help of some stories about honesty. You can talk about the real life happenings as well.

Additionally, deliver them a friendly lecture regarding the importance of honesty in one’s life.

38 Most of the children learn enough from movies and consider the actors as their role model. Ask your children to join you while watching movies and try playing the one related to honesty. For example, the famous comedy film "Liar Liar" highlights the disadvantages of lying and the advantages of honesty.

Introduce honesty as a home rule.
