8、 teenagers.DThey are all about history and politics.Melanie Perkins is co-founder of Canva, which allows users to create graphic designs for free in its simplest version, from social media posts to professional presentations.The Canva journey started back in 2007, when Perkins was studying at the Un

9、iversity of Western Australia. At that time she was teaching students how to use programs like InDesign and Photoshop. Students found the programs hard to learn, and even harder to use. She imagined the future of design would be entirely different. It would be online and very simple.Perkins got the

10、idea of creating a great new product. At the time, it was just a dream; after all, she and Cliff Obrecht, another co-founder of the company, were just university students with no funding and no technical or entrepreneurial (创业的) knowledge need to create the product and the company. However, what Mel

11、anie and her then friend Obrecht ( now husband ) did have was determination. They took the plunge and created their first design start-up called Fusion Books. It was an easy online platform for designing high school yearbooks. That turned out to be a success, and gave them wings for the next step: C

12、anva.However, they needed funding. Finding the right people took two years but there was always a lot of rejection for entrepreneurs in their early days, But every time they got a hard question or a reason why people wouldnt invest, they stayed focused on what they could change. “The normal thing to

13、 do after your 100th, 80th or even 20th no would be to stop, but you just have to insist trying,” Melanie said.A key person in getting Canva of the ground was Cameron Adams, an ex-Google employee who brought the technical expertise they needed.Now Canva is a global business, but neither Perkins nor

14、Obrecht considers that they have collected a fortune just for themselves. They want to do as much good as possible with their money.4What inspired Perkins to create an easy design system?AThe success of her Fusion Books.BThe need she saw from students.CHer then friend Obrechts encouragement.DA unive

16、erkins story?ANever give up.BBe true to others.CPractice makes perfect.DEvery road leads to Rome.As for Benjamin Franklins kite-and-key experiment, most people are aware of the version in which Franklin “discovered” electricity when lightning struck his kite. However, several details about this expe

17、riment are unknown, including when and where it happened. Some historians even doubt whether it took place.In fact, electricity had already been used for centuries before Franklins experiment. Franklin lived from 1706 to 1790 when electricity was understood 0S the interaction between two different f

18、luids (流体), which Franklin later referred to as “ plus ” and “ minus ”.It was unknown before Franklins experiment whether lightning was electrical, though some scientists, including Franklin, had guessed just that. Franklin was particularly interested in this because lightning strikes had caused dis

19、astrous fires where houses were made of wood. Actually, by creating a lightning rod (避雷针), Franklin helped to protect wooden buildings from being struck by lightning.A few publications reported the experiment. In 1771 Franklin referred to the experiment in his autobiography, and other colleagues als

20、o wrote about it. Notably, the experiment appeared in “History and Present Status of Electricity” by Joseph Priestley. Priestley heard about the kite and key experiment from Franklin himself around 15 years after the fact, and in his book，he wrote it occurred in June 1752.However, in a book by Tom T

21、ucker, he noted Franklins description of his experiment was phrased in the future conditional tense: “As soon as any of the Thunder Clouds come over the Kite, the pointed Wire will draw the Electric Fire from them.” Franklin could have simply been saying that the experiment could, in theory, be perf

22、ormed. Given that his statement has a few missing detailsFranklin didnt list a date, time or location, for example its possible that Franklin did not perform the experiment himself.However, some historians remain unconvinced that the experiment wasnt carried out. Franklin experts, such as biographer

23、 Carl Van Doren, also point to the fact that Priestley specified the month in which Franklin performed his experiment, suggesting that Franklin must have given him precise details directly.8What was Franklins achievement?AHe invented the lightning rod.BHe discovered electricity.CHe thought of ways t

24、o control fire.DHe improved the structure of homes.9What can we learn from paragraph 4?AFranklin lived in the 17th century.BPriestleys book came out in 1786.CPriestley and Franklin were close friends.DPriestley wrote the experiment happened in summer.10Why was the future conditional tense stressed b

25、y Tucker?ATo indicate he was good at observing.BTo point out Franklin was careless in writing.CTo show Franklin was just saying a possibility.DTo prove Franklin did the experiment by himself.11What is mainly talked about in the text?AThe discovery of electricity.BThe development of the lightning rod

26、.CBenjamin Franklins autobiography.DDifferent opinions on Franklins experiment.Road trips can seem extra-long when someone else s unpleasant music fills the car. What if you could listen to only your music without headphones and no one else would hear it? Now researchers in France are working lo del

27、iver such personal sound zones that adapt as conditions in your car change.Why bother? Headphones are good at controlling what you hear, but they can be uncomfortable and even damage your hearing.Personal listening zones inside a car could let you hear well without having to drown out other sounds w

28、ith high volume. They also would bring many new possibilities. Everyone in a car could listen to their own audio privately. GPS alerts (警报) could go only to the driver. Passengers could make phone calls without being overheard.Engineers are working to create these personal sound zones using multiple

29、 loudspeakers. They dont tall broadcast the same signal, but the signals are coordinated (协调的). A listener whose head is in some “sweet spot” hears high-quality sound. But as one gels farther from the sweet spot, the sound diminishes. Thats because sound waves from different loudspeakers interact to

30、 cancel out each others sound.According to Patricia Davies, an engineer studying sound, creating quiet zones anywhere in a three-dimensional space, like the inside of a vehicle, is challenging. One reason is that sound waves are sensitive. Changes in temperature can change how fast the waves travel.

31、 So can the number of people in the car and other factors. A small change in even one of these can have a big impact.Still, its easier to create personal sound zones in cars than in other spaces. In a car, whats interesting is that we know where the people are. The loudspeakers can be built right in

32、to the headrests.Personal sound zones will only catch on if they work as well as headphones. If you turn on the air conditioner or pick up a passenger, the sound quality cant go downhill. With this in mind, Melon and his team recently modified an existing system.12What is mainly talked about in para

33、graph 3?AThe popularity of personal listening zones.BThe advantages of personal listening zones.CThe safety offered by personal listening zones.DThe differenccs among 8ounds with high volume.13What does the underlined word “diminishes” in paragraph 4 probably mean?ABecomes lower.BTravels faster.CGet

34、s sweeter.DSounds nicer.14Why is creating quiet zones in a car difficult?AThe speed of a car is uncontrollable.BSound waves are easy to be affected.CThe places of loudspeakers are fixed.DThe temperatures of passengers are changeable.15What might be talked about next?AWhat the team did.BWho made up t

35、he team.CWhich system worked best.DHow popular the system was.二、七选五There are lessons in life to be learnt from almost everything that can be observed, from pouring water in your glass to watching a football game. Here are the lessons l am reminded of when 1 watch a sports game or involve myself in o

36、ne. _16_ Like in life, you dont always come out on top in sports. Athletes know this and know how to move on. That doesnt mean it doesnt hurt, but they dont expect everything to go as planned.I recall watching the Soccer World Cup of 2010. That was a match between Portugal and North Korea. And North

39、we can make a lot of smart work and strategies, we all need to push ourselves beyond our comfort zone if we want something outstanding.Doing sports has great benefits to both the body and the mind. _20_AThat shows hard work pays.BThey are rules nearly every one of us know.CHowever, he didnt feel pro

40、ud after success.DYou re not always going to win, so move on.EMost athletes know time, energy and enthusiasm equal success.FAs we have seen here, it can also teach us a fair bit about life itself.GI was shocked to find at the 80th minute they were still fighting hard.三、完形填空When Abraham was 12. he de
