　　Text 10

　　More and more private cars are being bought by Chinese families.Family cars are intended to be convenient, but will they really bring convenience to everyday life in a country with such a large population? Moreover, driving cars will probably make people sit all the time without any exercise.It will do harm to their health.Riding bicycles is much better.It is not practical for China to popularize family cars in the near future, especially in our big cities.

　　There are a number of reasons why private cars are becoming popular in China.To start with, many people have become wealthy.They can afford to buy their own cars.Besides, with their improved living conditions, many people think that they should have more comfortable means of traveling.They are no longer satisfied with bicycles or motorcycles.Finally, new bank systems allow people to buy cars with loans.Thus, more and more people have cars.

　　However, private cars have caused some problems in China.One problem is traffic jams.With so many cars being used, the streets have become very crowded.The number of accidents has increased.Another problem is air pollution.People are starting to complain of the waste gas given off by cars.Fortunately, local governments have become aware of these problems and are trying their best to solve them.

　　31．A'此处考查副词。Slim 正在做早饭，“突然”感觉自己的身体在摇晃。suddenly“突然地”，符合语境。

　　32．B'Slim 做出的迅速反应就是“地震了”。rapid“迅速的”，符合语境。

　　33．D　 既然知道地震了，自然是大声喊叫。shout 大声喊叫；warn 警告；howl 嚎叫，往往指动物的叫声；jump 跳跃。

　　34．C'此处 Nicole 做了几个一连串的动作：听到丈夫的喊叫，迅速拿起急救箱，然后跑到厕所里。take up 有多种意思，此处意为“拿起”。

　　35．B'前文提到 Slim 感觉自己的身体晃动，用了 shake 一词，此处表示“房子晃得更厉害了”，故B项正确。

　　36．D'由48空前的信息“He started to dig with the kitchen knife”可知，此处他拿了厨房用的刀。

　　37．A'此处考查动词。因为屋子晃动得厉害，所以他只能尽力顺着墙走着去救妻子。wander 徘徊；run 跑；jump 跳，均不合语境。

　　38．A'此处考查前后的逻辑关系。前面提到 Slim 尽力要去救妻子，后面提到突然黑了，前后自然是转折关系，故用 however。

　　39．B'前面提到 explosion，此处指房子倒塌，屋顶往下掉东西。crash 意为“坠落；碰撞；倒塌”。

　　40．A'此处考查名词词义辨析。房屋倒塌了，Nicole 被埋在废墟中。ruins 废墟。

　　41．C'此处考查形容词词义辨析。senseless 无知觉的；impractical 不实际的，不实用的；impossible 不可能的；invaluable 无价值的。由语境可知，Nicole 想站起来，但这是不可能的，故C项最佳。

　　42．D'此处考查形容词的运用。由后面她能听到微弱的声音可知此处表示“几分钟后，大地一片寂静”，故 silent 符合语境。

　　43．B'由语境可知，此时 Nicole 能听到微弱的呼吸声，她认为是丈夫。

　　44．A'由下一句信息 she finally heard a response，可知此处“她喊丈夫，但没有回音”。response 回答，响应。

　　45．C'两个人互相鼓励，互相保持镇静。由语境可知，只有 calm 正确。

　　46．D'前面提到他们互相鼓励，互相保持镇静。他们相信肯定有办法逃出去。escape“逃跑，逃脱”，符合语境。

　　47．B'此处考查动词的运用。wrap 包裹；separate 分离，分开；fasten 拴紧，系牢；limit 限制，由语境可知，他俩离得不远，但被掉落的石头和碎末隔开了，故B项正确。

　　48．A'Slim 用厨房用刀挖石头，把手都挖疼了。pain，“痛疼”，符合语境。

　　49．C'此处表示他把妻子周围的石头都挖开了。surrounding 在此处作形容词，意为“周围的，周边的”。

　　50．C'最后，妻子的呼吸慢慢恢复了正常。steady“均匀的，平稳的”，符合语境。

　　(2011·陕西高考)Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice.However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.

　　Born in September, 1897, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies' two daughters.Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers.She finished her high school education at the College of Sévigné in Paris.

　　Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics.When World War Ⅰ began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X­ray facilities (设备) to help save the lives of wounded soldiers.Irene continued the work by developing X­ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgium.Her services were recognised in the form of a Military Medal by the French government.

　　In 1918, Irene became her mother's assistant at the Curie Institute.In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work.They soon fell in love and were married in 1926.Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later.

　　Like her mother, Irene combined family and career.Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935.Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia because of her work with radioactivity (辐射能)．Irene Joliot­Curie died from leukemia on March 17,1956.

　　51．Why was Irene Curie awarded a Military Medal?

　　A．Because she received a degree in mathematics.

　　B．Because she contributed to saving the wounded.

　　52．Where did Irene Curie meet her husband Frederic Joliot?

　　答案与解析

　　[语篇解读]'本文为记叙文。诺贝尔奖得主 Marie Curie 众所周知，但她的女儿 Irene Curie 却鲜为人知，她同样是一位诺贝尔奖获得者。

　　51．B'细节理解题。根据第三段的第二句和第三句可知，Irene Curie 帮助母亲用X光设备来救治伤员，在法国和比利时的军事医院中，她仍继续自己的工作，并改进了X光设备。她因此被授予一枚“军事奖章”。

　　52．A'细节理解题。由倒数第二段可知，1918年，Irene 在 Curie Institute 成了她妈妈的一名助手，1924年，Frederic Joliot 也进入了 Curie Institute，两人从此结识。故两人认识的地点应该为 Curie Institute。

　　53．A'细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的最后一句可知，他们的女儿Helene 出生于1927年，5年后儿子出生了，即第二个孩子在1932年出生。

　　54．C'推理判断题。由首段可知，Marie Curie 获得了两次诺贝尔奖，但根据最后一段可知，Irene Curie 只获得了一次诺贝尔奖，这是母女俩的不同之处。由最后一段可排除选项A、B和D。

　　(2017·江苏百校联考)Now in a world piled high with smartphones, tablets and e－readers, technology has entered the classroom in ways unimaginable. Taking classes can be fun too. All you have to do is wipe your fingers on your phone screen and download some Apps, which can make your

　　study more fun and efficient. Balancing study and play in a college setting has never been easy——and with the following few

　　apps, it'll be tough to tell the two apart.

　　Evernote

　　Use: note－taking

　　Can be used on: Phone/iPad/iPod touch, Android, BlackBerry, PalmOS and Windows Phone 7

　　Price: free

　　It's hard to imagine that with all the magical gadgets, the eager, studious types would still take out a notepad, pencil, and highlighter－and take notes in class. While it's not an actual planner or calendar App, if you take notes to stay organized, then Evernote is for you. The main thing about Evernote is that all of your notes are automatically sent into the cloud(云储存平台上)——and then you can access them from any web－connected computer via the Evernote App or a web browser. Evernote also support audio and photo notes－rather handy if you want to record your lecture or take photos of any projected notes.

　　But, of course, ask for permission first.

　　Wikpanion

　　Use: research database

　　Can be used on: iPhone/Pad/iPod touch

　　Price: free (Wikipanion Plus for$4, 99, or 31. 87 yuan)

　　Now, you don't necessarily have to go to a library or anywhere with computer services to do research work for your paper anymore.

　　You can get

　　access to the research databases just on your smartphone or tablet. Wkipanion gives you a simplified version of Wikipeda without leaving out any of the site's extra features. The normal links that you'd see to each section of an article xre no longer on the main screen. Instead，there's a small icon located at the bottom of the app, which can be used to access all the sections of an article.

　　[语篇解读]'随着高科技发明渗透到生活中的各个领域 ，就连校园课堂也不再那么单调乏味。智能应用程序的诞生使得学习者能够更加轻松、高效地汲取知识。

　　59．A　推理判断题。文章中提到了3种应用程序，在讲述其用途时反复提及studious；take notes in class, record your lecture, do research work for your paper 等等，可见该产品的对象是“学生”。

　　60．B　推理判断题。Wikipanion(维基百科阅读伴侣)是免费的，但Wikipanion plus(维基百科 Plus版)需4.99美元。

　　61．D　推理判断题。根据wikipanion部分可知，研发人员网站上介绍，在维基百科阅读伴侣上加载维基百科页面要比使用苹果浏览器访问维基百科快得多，所以C项错误；文章中Evernote部分提到，The main thing about Evernote is that all of your notes are automatically sent into the cloud...，故D项正确。

　　Kong Zi，also called Confucius(551­479 B．C.)，and Socrates(469­399 B．C.)lived only a hundred years apart, and during their lifetimes there was no contact between China and Greece, but it is interesting to look at how the world that each of these great philosophers came from shaped their ideas，and how these ideas in turn，shaped their societies.

　　Neither philosopher lived in times of peace, though there were more wars in Greece than in China.The Chinese states were very large and feudal, while the Greek city­states were small and urban.The urban environment in which Socrates lived allowed him to be more radical(激进的)than Confucius.Unlike Confucius, Socrates was not asked by rulers how to govern effectively.Thus，Socrates was able to be more idealistic, focusing on issues like freedom，and knowledge for its own sake.Confucius, on the other hand, advised those in government service, and many of his students went on to government service.

　　Confucius suggested the Golden Rule as a principle for the conduct of life: “Do not do to others what you would not want others to do to you.” He assumed that all men were equal at birth, though some had more potential than others, and that it was knowledge that set men apart.Socrates focused on the individual, and thought that the greatest purpose of man was to seek wisdom.He believed that some had more potential to develop their reason than others did.Like Confucius, he believed that the superior class should rule the inferior(下层的) classes.

　　For Socrates, the family was of no importance, and the community of little concern.For Confucius, however, the family was the centre of society, with family relations considered much more important than political relations.

　　Both men are respected much more today than they were in their lifetimes.

　　63．Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

　　A．Socrates and Confucius had much in common.

　　B．Confucius had much influence on Socrates' ideas.

　　C．The societies were influenced by the philosophers' ideas.

　　D．There were cultural exchanges between China and Greece.

　　64．Socrates shared with Confucius the idea that________.

　　A．all men were equal when they were born

　　B．the lower classes should be ruled by the upper class

　　C．the purpose of man was to seek freedom and wisdom

　　D．people should not ask others to do what they did not want to

　　65．What made some people different from others according to Confucius?

　　A．Family.

　　B．Potential.

　　C．Knowledge.

　　D．Community.

　　66．This passage is organized in the pattern of________.

　　A．time and events

　　B．comparison and contrast

　　C．cause and effect

　　D．definition and classification
