Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Magical Nature Reserves B. Best Walking Tours C. Colorful Cultural Treasures D. Amazing Wilderness Areas B Its fall, and that means some trees are losing their leaves. Many people might see cleaning up all that yard waste as tiring. But Bryant Liu, 13, looked at his leafblanketed lawn and saw a potential source of energy. Right now, most people fuel their cars with petrol made from fossil fuels(化石燃料), which are not renewable. So scientists are making biofuels. For example, engineers can produce bioethanola type of alcohol fuelfrom sugars in plants. Turning to dead leaves, however, presents a challenge for biofuel developers. Dead leaves have sugar, but they also have lots of lignina tough substance(物质) that strengthens the walls of plant cells. To get to the sugars inside, scientists first have to break down the lignin with chemicals. Bryant wanted to see if he could get sugar for biofuels out of dead leaves by pretreating those leaves with acids or bases(碱).The young researcher gathered up three garbage bags full of leaves from his yard. Then he went to his fathers laboratory. He broke the dead leaves into pieces, and then carefully loaded equal numbers of them into test tubes. Afterwards, he added either an acid solution or a base solution at different concentrations to the test tubes. “That was really fun, ” Bryant says. “It made me feel like a real scientist.” Finally, the teen found that pretreating leaves with either an acid or base encouraged sugar to get out from his yards leaves. However, he explains, the process is still too expensive. Bryant now wants to take the sugars from his finding to the next stepmaking ethanol. If he could create a better method for producing biofuels, he explains, people would need fewer fossil fuels and “have a renewable energy source for the future.” And, Bryant adds, if people use all those dead leaves for biofuels, he and other kids may have to do less cleaning each fall. ()24. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2? A. Reflect on Bryants experiences. B. Use examples to support the topic. C. Add some background information. D. Introduce a new topic for discussion. ()25. What is the purpose of Bryants experiment? 4 A. To test the toughness of the lignin. B. To find the differences between acids and bases. C. To identify the functions of the elements of leaves. D. To get sugar from dead leaves using acids and bases. ()26. What is Bryants next step? A. To produce biofuels from dead leaves. B. To promote the use of biofuels worldwide. C. To make his pretreating process less costly. D. To encourage other kids to collect dead leaves. ()27. Which of the following best describes Bryant? A. He is caring. B. He is demanding. C. He has a good sense of humor. D. He has a spirit of exploration. C A new study, published this week in the journal Frontiers in Veterinary Science, reveals that nonhuman animals tears are not so different from our own. The chemical similarities are so great, in fact, that the composition of other species tearsand how theyre adapted to their environmentsmay provide insights into better treatments for human eye disease. Previously, scientists had studied closely only the tears of a handful of mammals, including humans, dogs, horses, camels, and monkeys. In the new study, Brazilian veterinarians analyzed the tears of reptiles and birds for the first time, focusing on seven species. Tears, which are released from tear tubes, form a film over the eye thats composed of three ingredients: mucus, waler, and oil. The mucus coats the eyes surface and helps to attach the film to the eye, the water is a natural salty solution containing crucial proteins and minerals, and the oil prevents the eye from drying out. Humans are the only known species to produce emotional tears; the expression “crocodile tears”, which refers to a persons phony display of emotion, comes from the mysterious tendency of crocodiles to release tears as they eat. But tears play key roles beyond weeping, notes Lionel Sebbag at Iowa State University, who was not involved in the new research. They help with vision by lubricating and clearing the eye. They also protect the eye against infection and provide nutrition to the cornea, the eyes clear outer layer, which lacks blood tubes, he says. Learning how reptiles and birds use tears may also inspire new medications for conditions such as dry eye, which occurs when tear tubes dont produce enough oil. The disease, common in cats, dogs, and people, can sometimes lead to blindness. ()28. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The source of tears. B. The composition of tears. C. The classification of tears. D. The definition of tears. ()29. What does the underlined word “phony” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Tricky. B. Regretful. C. Cold. D. False. ()30. Which statement does Lionel Sebbag agree with? A. Weeping contributes to eye disease. B. The cornea has rich blood tubes. C. Tears oil and clear the eyes. D. More tears mean better vision. ()31. What might be the best title for the text? A. Tears, a barrier to eyes B. A better treatment for eye disease 5 C. Nonhuman tears promise new cures D. Other species tears are similar to humans D The field of robotics is fastgrowing. Robots can now perform complicated movements with elegancebackflipping, practicing park our moves, even “carving” classical sculptures. Then theres Sophia, a robot whose widespread appeal lies not in big, dramatic actions (her body is often fixed to a rolling base), but rather an unsettling humanlike appearance, compounded with the complex ability to express emotions(情感). “Were not fully there yet, but Sophia can represent a number of emotional states, and she can also see emotional expressions on a human face as well, ” explains David Hanson, the founder of Hanson Robotics. According to Hanson, Sophia now has simulations(仿真) of every major muscle in the human face, allowing her to generate expressions of joy, curiosity, confusion, reflection, sorrow, frustration, and other feelings. Besides deep learning and a preprogrammed set of expressions, Sophias face is constructed using the latest developments in material technology, meaning it appears softer, more flexible and therefore, more realistic. The lab also studies the neurobiology and biology of human facial expressions to help inform how mechanical ones can behave. When Hanson first began sculpting Sophia, he wanted her form to resonate(共鸣) with people from around the world. To that end, he looked to old statues of Nefertiti (queen of Egypt), ancient Chinese paintings, Audrey Hepburn and even his wife as inspiration. Since her activation in 2016, Sophia has since graced the covers of fashion publications and starred in a recent Moncler campaign. During an event at Shanghai Fashion Weekend, Sophia wore 3D copper arm cuffs and sculptural garments designed by British artist Sadie Clayton. “The reason why I was interested in working with Sophia is that being an artist, it mixes fashion, art and technology. This was the most natural, organic way of me developing my process, ” says Clayton. Besides modeling, she has appeared on talk shows and spoken at conferences about issues ranging from artificial intelligence to the role of robots. Controversially, she was even granted Saudi Arabian citizenship, becoming the first robot to have a nationality. “I dont know what it is about Sophia, that speaks to people, but I hope that we can develop our AI and robots in a way that makes a deep emotional connection.” ()32. What makes Sophia different from previous robots? A. Carving fine artworks. B. Being able to perform complex movements. C. Generating many humanlike facial expressions. D. Reacting more quickly and produce her own thought. ()33. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. What emotions can Sophia express vividly. B. Why Sophia produces different emotions. C. How researchers programmed the robotics. D. What is the latest product of Hanson Robotics. ()34. What can we learn from Paragraph 3? A. Sophia has starred in a recent movie. B. Sophia launched many campaigns with Clayton. C. Sophia is a mixture of fashion and entertainment. 6 D. Sophia is designed to have universal appeal to people. ()35. What may cause much public discussion about Sophia? A. Holding her own nationality. B. Modeling for the fashion show. C. Communicating with human beings. D. Making a speech at significant conferences. 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 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。 Profitable Senior Service Businesses You Can Start Today This year, almost 4 million Americans will turn 65. That number will continue to grow for the next two decades. By 2030, it will grow to over 75 million people. _36_ In fact, the US. Department of Labor forecasts that senior service jobs will be the fastestgrowing part of the job market for many years to come. _37_ As most seniors want to stay independent as long as possible, they, or their grownup children, plan to use that increased wealth to make their lives better in their senior years. This will provide an abundance of moneymaking opportunities. Because most seniors want to age in place in their own homes, they often need help with daily tasks like meal preparation and housekeeping. Many are unable to drive and need reliable transportation for shopping trips and doctors appointments. _38_ Seniors also often need a reliable resource persona “senior concierge”to handle the tasks they are unable to do, such as scheduling home repairs, buying groceries or taking a pet to the vet. _39_ There comes a timeusually in their 70s or 80swhen seniors downsize and move to a much smaller residence or a retirement community. _40_ They help reduce the emotional stress associated with moving, so a senior has a gentle, and smooth transition to their new home. The growing number of seniors, and the service jobs they are creating, mean new opportunities for anyone who wants to start a business serving seniors. If youre looking for a rewarding job or homebased business providing essential services to this growing population of seniors, youll find plenty of choices. A.
