Seated at the grand piano in MIT's Killian Hall last fall, first-year student Jacqueline Wang played one piece of Mozart's music. When she'd finished, Mi-Eun Kim, a pianist and lecturer at MIT, asked her to move to the back of the hall. Kim tapped at an iPad. Suddenly, the music Wang had just played poured forth again from the piano - its keys sinking and rising just as they had with Wang's fingers on them. Wang stood with a confused expression, taking in a repeat of her own performance.
This unusual lesson took place during a three-week residency(驻留期) of the Steinway Spirio|r, a piano that obtains the data of live performances and offers students new possibilities for studying and experimenting with music.
Wang was one of several participants to have the experience of hearing herself play while watching the data of her performance move up and down across a screen: color-coded rectangles (矩形) indicating the speed and duration of each note, and a moving line charting her use of the damper pedal (阻尼踏板). Wang could even edit her own performance when Kim suggested her rhythmic use of the pedal might be unnecessary. Using the iPad interface to erase the pedaling entirely, they listened to the playback again, the notes gaining new clarity,
For Wang, the session introduced an element she'd never experienced since beginning her piano studies. The visual display of how long each key was played and with what speed gave her a more precise demonstration of the ideas of voicing and evenness.
Playing the piano is one of the most complex activities that humans do with their hands. Some people might think the new technology will replace the pianist. In Kim's view, that human complexity is complemented by this kind of technical possibility. But it doesn't mean all of the things that go into learning music will be abandoned. It's going to be an invaluable third partner: the student, the teacher, and the Spirio | r. It's going to play a necessary role in lots of musical efforts.
24.What happened after Jacqueline Wang finished her performance
A. Her teacher played a piece of music to compete against her.
B. She got her performance reviewed on the Spirio|r.
C. She was asked to comment on her performance.
D. Her teacher instructed her to improve her skills.
25.What can we say about the new piano technology
A. It is difficult to operate. B. It needs to be more intelligent.
C. It might reveal users' privacy. D. It is beneficial for students’ learning.
26. What does the author intend to express in the last paragraph
A. The music world is full of uncertainties.
B. Technology cannot replace human pianists.
C. There won't be fiercer competition among pianists.
D. Pianists should be updated with the latest technology.
27. What can be the best title for the text
A. Making Full Use of MIT's Program
B. The Evolution of Musical Instruments
C. Exploring Music with the Steinway Spirio|r
D. The Challenges of Learning a New Instrument
C
The green, natural forest absorbs carbon dioxide from the air through photo- synthesis (光合作用).There is another way of dealing with the climate crisis. That is setting up fields of dark-colored solar panels(太阳能电池板),also known as “solar forests", which replace power stations that use fossil fuels such as coal and gas to make electricity, thus mitigating harmful emissions(排放) of greenhouse gases.
But since they are both relatively dark, they absorb a lot of solar radiation. Some of the energy is used for photosynthesis in natural forests or to produce electricity in “solar forests", but most returns to the atmosphere, heating it up. Then what would be the more effective land use option in terms of the climate crisis: planting a forest, or building solar panels This issue has long been debated by decision-makers around the world. Now, we may have an answer, thanks to a new study.
First, the researchers compared the impact of a forest on the climate crisis in a dry area to that of a solar farm in a similar environment. The researchers found that the albedo effect (反射效应) of both of these “forests” was similar, but that the absorption or prevention of carbon emissions was very different. It turns out that it takes 2.5 years for the heat emitted by solar farms to be balanced by the carbon emissions that are avoided, thanks to the energy they produce. In the case of a natural forest of similar size, it would take more than 100 years of photosynthesis to balance its heating effect.
The researchers also studied how the heating-cooling relationship changed in other climates and found that in more humid environments, the heating effect of planting large numbers of trees is smaller. And the break-even point is reached within 15 to 18 years.
“In dry places, building solar forests seems far more effective in addressing the climate crisis. Meanwhile, forests absorb about a third of annual carbon emissions and play a vital role in the global rain cycle, in maintaining biodiversity and in many other environmental and social contexts. Preventing them from being cut down and planting more trees in humid areas are of great significance,” explains one of the researchers in the study.
28.What does the underlined word “mitigating” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Releasing. B. Decreasing. C. Generating. D. Stabilizing.
29.What is the root cause of the long-running debate over the two types of forests
A. They cause much damage to the land.
B. They result in a serious loss of farmland.
C. They contribute to the warming of the atmosphere.
D. They lose energy during the absorption of solar radiation.
30. What did the researchers find in the study conducted in the dry environment
A. The natural forest exhibits a stronger albedo effect.
B. The solar forest can generate more energy in dry areas.
C. The solar forest is superior in balancing the heating effect.
D. The natural forest is more effective in solving the climate crisis.
31. What can be concluded from the last paragraph
A. More trees should be planted in dry regions.
B. More methods should be adopted to address the climate crisis.
C. Fields of solar panels should be set up everywhere on the earth.
D. Building solar panels and planting trees should be effectively combined.
D
While many of us might long to just sleep through this entire winter, humans, unlike a lot of other mammals - don't have the capacity to hibernate (冬眠). But researchers think they have found some tell-tale marks on the fossils, which suggests that early humans may have survived the harsh winter by hibernating.
Bears have specialized metabolic (新陈代谢的) processes to protect them from this extended sleep, but sometimes this process doesn't quite go to plan. For example, hibernators can end up with a host of diseases after hibernation if they don't get enough food reserves before they go down for the winter. The researchers believe this may have been the circumstance of some human ancestors whose remains with deep cracks in bones were discovered in a Spanish cave called Sima de los Huesos. This deep hole is home to an incredible number of fossils, with archaeologists having discovered thousands of early humans’ skeletal remains that are around 430,000 years old and probably the ancestors of the Sima people or others.
In a paper published in L'Anthropologie, two experts argue that the fossils found in Sima de los Huesos show seasonal variations that suggest that bone growth got interrupted for several months of each year. They suggest these early humans found themselves being in metabolic states that helped them to survive for long periods of time in extremely cold conditions with limited stores of body fat.
The researchers admit the idea “may sound like science fiction”, but they point out that many mammals including primates (灵长类动物)do this. “This suggests that the genetic basis and physiology for such slow metabolism could be preserved in many mammalian species including humans," state Arsuaga and Bartsiokas.
However, Chris Stringer of the Natural History Museum in London pointed out that large mammals such as bears do not actually hibernate, because their large bodies cannot lower their core temperature enough. Instead, they enter a less deep sleep known as torpor. In such a condition, the energy demands of the human-sized brains of the Sima people would have remained very large, creating an additional survival problem for them during torpor.
32.Why does the author mention the example in Paragraph 2
A. To explain the special ability of bears. B. To provide the background to the research.
C. To show the basis of researchers’ evaluation. D. To discuss a new cause of hibernating disease.
33. What can we know about the bones found in the Spanish cave
A. They were badly preserved with deep cracks.
B. Their growth discontinued temporarily for some reason.
C. Their appearances varied from individual to individual.
D. They showed signs of people living in comfort in the past.
34.What is Arsuaga and Bartsiokas’ attitude towards humans’ hibernation
A. It's quite possible. B. It merely appears in science fiction.
C. It's an exception to human genetics. D. It solved the mystery of humans’ evolution in Europe.
35. What might the hibernation of the Sima people result in according to Chris
A. They might have developed smaller brains.
B. Their daily sleep quality might become poor.
C. Their body temperature might increase rapidly.
D. They might suffer from life-threatening starvation.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In one of my teaching experiences, a colleague invited me to talk to his undergraduate class about being a clinical psychologist. Afterward, a line of students stopped me before I could go out. They didn't have questions about the lecture. 36 The students’enthusiasm showed the anxiety about navigating (找到正确方法)opportunity-seeking.
37 We encourage people to earn a college degree. We cheer on people who seek raises. However, emotional difficulties in opportunity-seeking and -taking can lead to our feeling stuck in the process. Because you can't control how an opportunity will pan out, making your self-worth contingent(依情况而定的) on it creates a ground for anxiety and fear.
There are two ways that people try to deal with these feelings: avoiding opportunities and seeking them excessively. Opportunity-avoiders are too hesitant to follow through with pursuing opportunities. Since they are afraid of failure, they avoid having a try at the opportunity. 38 They might also turn down opportunities that come their way because they don't feel confident enough to pursue them.
Compulsive (难控制的)opportunity-seekers get excited by the idea of an opportunity itself rather than identifying what the opportunity will mean for their quality of life. They find it painful to pass up opportunities even when they don't have time for them and might say “yes” to thankless tasks. 39
These two ways are well-intentioned but they are also self-defeating. The healthiest way to go about opportunity-seeking and -taking is building self-awareness. 40 Additionally, have a sense of what you want, which will help you choose opportunities more purposely and carefully.
A. But I didn’t have any opportunities for them.
B. They hesitate to ask for help, sometimes out of shame.
C. Figure out whether your behavior is clouded by emotion.
D. Rather, they were eager to seek a chance to work with me.
E. Pursuing opportunity is a healthy behavior that society celebrates.
F. It could also mean being patient for a better time to start a new opportunity.
G. As can be imagined, overloading one's schedule does not do much to improve self-worth.

Perfectionism is generally appreciated as a good quality. Therefore, it's not 43 that perfectionism in society has been on the rise for years. And it is more common in certain 44 like top athletes and medical specialists. Perfectionism can be seen as a behavioral 45 .

Many perfectionists 46 that if they don't pay enough attention to 47 , it will hurt their performance. So they 48 their perfectionism even when it's self-defeating.
Aiming for a high degree of success isn't necessarily 49 as long as you behave reasonably. People with adaptive perfectionism work hard to meet ambitious goals, but are also able to 50 mistakes, changes, and problems that they didn't anticipate. When encountering barriers, they stay flexible.

It tends to 52 individual confidence and affects relationships and overall well-being. To overcome it, it's crucial to 53 your mindset. Start by being 54 and gaining a broader perspective. Give yourself permission to loosen up a bit on certain matters, enabling you to 55 what truly matters. Transformation can be challenging, but it is indeed attainable.

Scientists at South Korea’s Yonsei University have created a new type of hybrid (杂交) rice that not only has a meaty pink color but is also packed with beef protein (蛋白质) and fat cells.
Rice is already one of the most nutritious foods available in nature, but thanks to some scientific “magic", it could soon become (56) sustainable (可持续的)alternative to meat. The new hybrid grains are firmer than natural grains, and when (57) (cook) they maintain their traditional appearance. While the new rice doesn't yet taste like beef, it does offer an (58) (enjoy) flavor experience, which is characteristic of meat. Thanks to the animal cells, this new pink rice could one day become a complete meal by itself, (59) (guarantee) a sufficient, sustainable food supply for the whole world.
“Imagine obtaining all the nutrients we need (60) cell-cultured protein rice,” said Park So-hyeon, co-author of the study. He said the team (61) (experiment) with different types of food products, but the models they got weren't as successful.
In the future, scientists plan to use sustainable supplies of cells (62) can be maintained in the lab. For now, the percentage of protein in the hybrid rice is still (63) ( fair) low. So they are also exploring the (64) (possible) of lacing (掺入) the rice with other types of meat or fish, in order to satisfy different tastes. (65) (replace) meat actually, researchers need to increase the rice's protein content significantly.

After little Julie lost her parents, she lived with Aunt Clara, who worked day and night to support her and her own daughter Mira. As the school prom (舞会) approached, both Julie and Mira dreamed of buying beautiful dresses for the occasion. However, Clara’s limited budget posed a challenge, as she could only afford one dress.
To determine who would receive the dress, Clara suggested the girls draw lots(抽签). Unfortunately, luck was not on Julie's side, but she remained optimistic. “Don't worry about me,” Julie smiled. “I'll figure something out."
Julie reached under her bed and pulled out a box containing money from Grandma. Grandma loved Julie and Mira very much. Every year, Grandma would send cash gifts to both of them. Julie had carefully saved her money and now had enough to buy a prom dress. With excitement and anticipation, she purchased a beautiful black dress, imagining being the prom queen at the prom.
The following Sunday morning, Aunt Clara left for work early. When Julie woke up, she was shocked that the dress she had hung over the nearby chair was gone! She looked out of the window and froze in horror at the sight of the family dog tearing it to pieces.
She screamed as she ran toward the dog. “What have you done to my dress ” Mira soon learned of the situation and rushed to help Julie to remove her dress caught between the dog's teeth. However, it was already completely ruined and unable to be repaired. Julie felt heartbroken at the thought of not being able to afford another dress.
Lost and unsure of what to do, Julie went to her grandma's house with the remains of her dress, seeking comfort and advice. When Grandma answered the door, Julie cried and said what had happened. Grandma comforted her and offered a glimmer of hope. “I can help you with your dress,” she smiled. “Follow me."
Grandma, who suffered from Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病),walked slowly and led Julie into the dining room. There, she removed the cover from her old sewing machine and instructed Julie to open the top drawer of the dresser, where an abundance of colorful cloth was stored.
Paragraph 1:
Julie said, “But I'm afraid that you couldn't sew anymore. You know, your hands.”
Paragraph 2:
Eventually, their joint efforts bore fruit, and they completed a new prom dress.南昌十九中第二次模拟考试英语参考答案
