Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history，and his achievement was even greater than only a few other great scientists have achieved. An American university president once said that Einstein had made a new outlook，a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity(特性)of time and space and so on—but even ordinary men now understand that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.
By 1914 young Einstein had been world-famous. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties，little teaching and unlimited chances for study，but soon his peace and quietness were broken by World War Ⅰ.
Einstein hated fighting and killing. The great suffering of war affected him deeply，and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.
In the year following World War Ⅰ，honours were increasingly put on him. He became head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. But he himself refused the effort to put him in a position far above other people. He was well known for his humble(谦逊的)manner. He often said that his success would certainly have been achieved by others if he had never lived.
In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize，and he was honoured in Germany until the rise of Nazism(纳粹)when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.
4．The main idea of the first paragraph is ．
A．The difficulty of Einstein's thought to others

D．The change in human thought produced by Einstein
5．It seems to the American university president that .
A．Einstein achieved more than any other scientist in history

C．during World War Ⅰ D．after he left Europe
7．From the passage we can know that ．

C．Einstein was forced to work again in 1918
D．Einstein led a quiet life during World War Ⅰ

The British live on a small island. They are surrounded by the sea，so it is not surprising that the sea has always played an important role in their lives. After the development of large，ocean going sailing ships in the fifteenth century，the sea became even more important to the country's development. Ships setting sail from England determined to extend Britain's territories，its wealth and its knowledge of the world. Ships returned to England bringing goods，people and new ideas from foreign places. By the nineteenth century，Britain had the largest，most powerful navy in the world.
The great sailing ships were so much a part of British life that they even affected the language. Many English expressions we use today were originally nautical(航海的)terms，although most people no longer realize this. For example，people commonly describe an honest and fair business deal as being “above board”．This expression was originally used in sailing ship times when secretive，dishonest ship's business would be carried out below decks(below the boards)out of public view. On the other hand，honest business was always conducted on deck(above the boards)，in the open where everyone could see what was going on.
“Pipe down！”，meaning “Be quiet！”，is another common expression that has nautical origins. The ship's boatswain(水手长)would blow a whistle，or pipe，at the end of the day to indicate(表明)to the sailors it was time to quieten down and go to sleep.
Most native English speakers have heard the expression “not enough room to swing a cat”，but few know that the “cat” does not refer to a small furry animal with four legs and a tail. The “cat” is actually a short form of “cat of nine tails”—a whip with nine knotted(打结的)tails. A boatswain needed a lot of space in order to swing the whip properly when lashing(鞭打)a poor sailor under his control!
8．The British have been strongly influenced by the sea because ．
A．They occupied more land around the world
B．They got more wealth from the sea
C．They live on an island surrounded by the sea
D．They had the largest navy ever
9．If someone is open and above board，it means he is ．
A．Secretive　　 B．Honest
C．Cheerful D．Dishonest
10．What can we conclude from the passage
A．Sailors need to go to sleep when they hear a whistle.
B．Sailors will be whipped if they do business below decks.
C．A poor sailor may be whipped nine times a day.
D．There is no spare room to raise cats on ships.
11．The passage is mainly about ．
A．The business on British sailing ships
B．The influence of British sailors' language on English
C．The sailing history of England
D．The sailing story of British sailors

It's 8 am.，Tuesday，Nov.18，2028，and you are headed for a business appointment 300 miles away. You step into your circle，two passenger air cushion car，press a series of buttons and the national traffic computer notes your destination，figures out the current traffic situation and signals your car to slide out of the garage. Hands free，you sit back and begin to read the morning paper—which is flashed on a flat TV screen over the car's dashboard. Tapping a button changes the page.
The car speeds up to 150 mph in the city's countryside，and then hits 250 mph in less built up areas，driving over the smooth plastic road. You fly past a string of cities，many of them covered by the new domes(圆屋顶)that keep them evenly climatized all year round. Traffic is heavy，typically，but there's no need to worry. The traffic computer，which sends and receives signals to and from all cars on the road between cities，keeps vehicles at least 50 yds apart. There hasn't been an accident since the system began.
Suddenly your TV phone buzzes. A business partner wants a sketch of a new kind of impeller your firm is putting out for sports boats. You reach for your case and draw the diagram with a pencil- thin infrared flashlight(红外线闪光灯)on what looks like a TV screen lining the back of the case. The diagram is sent to a similar screen in your partner's office，200 miles away. He presses a button and a fixed copy of the sketch rolls out of the machine. He wishes you good luck at the coming meeting and signs off.
Ninety minutes after leaving your home，you slide beneath the dome of your destination city. Your car slows down and heads for an outer -core office building where you'll meet your colleagues. After you get out，the vehicle parks itself in a garage to await your return. Private cars aren't allowed inside most city cores. Moving sidewalks and electrams(电车)carry the public from one location to another.
12．The traffic computer in your car can ．
A．keep your car at a safe distance from other cars
B．keep your car at the same speed in different situations

A．To prevent people from being wet in the rain.
B．To stop the climate of the cities changing violently all year.
C．To protect the travelers against the strong sunshine.
D．To make the city have the same weather all year.

A．No accidents will happen because of heavy traffic.
B．The sidewalk can move itself up and down.
C．The road is built with the plastic material.
D．The car parks itself on a dome to wait for your return.

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。选项中有两项多余选项。
Last week after my motorcycle crashed on the freeway，I wanted only two simple things from technology: to call 911 and to tell loved ones where I could be found. 16 When she opened Google Maps，she could see precisely where I was.
For years，tech companies have offered different ways for people to tell one another where they are. 17 If used carelessly，location tracking may hurt your privacy. But used thoughtfully，it can be a powerful and efficient communication tool. 18
·When you make plans to meet friends somewhere like a movie theater，get into the habit of sharing your location for a short duration，like an hour. This way you can skip saying things like “I'm on my way” or “I'm running a few minutes behind” because people can simply follow you on the map.
· 19 Location sharing can be useful for being considerate of your partner's time and space. For example，I am less likely to text my partner when I see she is at the office or driving on a freeway，but I will text when I see she is at the grocery store to ask her to pick something up.
·Next time you plan an event at a large outdoor space，do your friends a favor: 20 Wandering around aimlessly in a crowded open space can be annoying.
A．Here are my suggestions for the best times to use it.
B．For safety reasons，avoid sharing your location publicly.
C．Use an app to share your current location so they can find you.
D．Consider sharing your location occasionally with your partner.
E．There are many ways for third parties to find out where we are.
F．Yet location tracking has caused controversy for the last decade.
G．Before calling 911，I texted my partner who was already tracking my location with an app.

Growing up in the 1960s，I was taught from an early age to send a handwritten thank you note expressing 21 for kindness. My mother used to buy me a box of paper and 22 me in the art and value of saying “thank you”．She 23 to be right.
A study showed that it took less than 5 minutes to write the thank you notes.

In his ten years as CEO，Conant wrote over 30，000 notes to employees. It's 36 not to ask how he did it. 37 ，he had many other things to do 38 writing a thank you note. Conant made time for 39 because he knew the impact(影响)each one would have. An expression of 40 in this crazy world still makes a difference.

I love doing housework. I always assist my parents in doing the dish after meals. I also water the flowers in the yard and tidying up my own bedroom whatever necessary. In my opinion, students can benefit a lot doing some housework. Firstly, doing housework was helpful for us to be a responsible person. Also, it gives our parents more time to do what they are like and it improves the family relatio-nship. What’s most, doing housework can be a form of mentally relaxation from study. That’s our vie-w on housework. And hopes this can inspire more thinking on the topic!
