第一节 (共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。
A
Four Females Of Empowerment And Success
Given that the world has largely operated as a male-dominated
society for most of human history, it comes as no surprise that
women have faced lots of obstacles to succeed. But fortunately, times
are changing. These four women overcame incredibly difficult barriers
that enabled them to leave an everlasting mark.
Ellen Johnson Sirleaf: The First Female Head of State in Africa
When Ellen Johnson Sirleaf was elected president of Liberia in
2006, she made history by becoming the first female head of an
African nation. Throughout her 12 years as president, she did a lot to
help rebuild civil war-torn Liberia's economy and infrastructure, and
was even the 2011 winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.
Benazir Bhutto: The First Female Prime Minister of Pakistan
Although Pakistan is a country where men traditionally hold
power, this didn't stop the voters from electing Benazir Bhutto as their
prime minister, a first in the Muslim world. Among her contributions
were championing women's rights and improving social conditions for
those struggling the most.
Jessica Cox: The World's First Armless Pilot
The fact that Jessica Cox was born without arms didn't stop her
from achieving things that most people with arms are incapable of
doing: namely, learning to fly an airplane. She did this by using her
feet, which was how she performed other everyday tasks such as
driving and typing! In becoming the world's first licensed pilot
without arms, she served as a powerful advocate for people with
physical disabilities.
Katherine Johnson: The Mathematical Space Genius
Thanks to the 2016 film Hidden Figures, countless people are
now familiar with Katherine Johnson's amazing story. An employee at
NASA who played an important role in the first moon landing,
Johnson's mathematical talents earned her the nickname "the human
computer".
1. What did Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Benazir Bhutto have in
common
A. Winning a Nobel Prize.
B. Urging the equality of women rights.
C. Being the first female political heads.
D. Contributing to the economic recovery.
2. How was Jessica Cox different from other females
A. She devoted herself to space exploration.
B. She struggled to gain access to education.
C. She was the first female to fly an airplane.
D. She inspired people with physical disabilities.
3. Who rose to fame through a film
A. Katherine Johnson. B. Benazir Bhutto.
C. Jessica Cox. D. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.
B
If there's one thing I've realized since becoming a male college
student, it's that finding a summer job is nearly impossible. I've
applied to so many places and I've experienced so many interviews,
but I always either get straight-up refusal or never hear from the
company again.
One time, I even called one of the companies multiple times, but
the manager avoided me. I was close to giving up. I felt like I was
the only one struggling hard. I had a pretty good resume, and I
always dressed nicely for my interviews, so why couldn't I get a job
Well, the reason is actually right in front of me—I am a student.
Companies generally want students who can work all year long, but
most of them aren't willing to be flexible with schedules. I couldn't
tell you how many times interviewers told me that they were looking
for someone permanent.
I tried looking for jobs marked as temporary ones. And I even
once tried to apply through a temporary agency. But it didn't work.
Even if I wanted to work during the school year, none of the
companies wanted to hire me because of my limited weekday
availability. And despite not knowing if I could juggle (尽量兼顾)
both school and a job, I even started to tell interviewers that I would
like to work during the school year and give up my weekends. But I
had no luck.
I'm not sure if there are others like me out there. But if you are
going through something similar, what I want to tell you is to keep
on trying. Despite being rejected so many times, I still applied for
any job that I was qualified for. I even started my job search before
the semester ended to get ahead. Eventually, I got my ideal summer
job.
I know it's frustrating, and you may feel like you've tried
everything—that's how I've felt for a long time. And now, with
companies requiring years of experience, it's even harder to get a job
if you're someone like me. But don't give up. Keep searching and
applying, sign up for sites that send you job offers and look on the
university's website for on-campus jobs.
4. What does the author want to convey in paragraph 2
A. His brilliant academic records.
B. The cause of his unemployment.
C. His jobless confusion in summer.
D. The social prejudice to graduates.
5. Why did the temporary agency fail the author
A. He was troubled with schoolwork.
B. He was thought to have tight work time.
C. He was unwilling to balance study and work.
D. He was regarded as an inexperienced student.
6. What can be concluded from paragraph 5
A. Well begun is half done.
B. Actions speak louder than words.
C. Everything comes to him who waits.
D. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
7. What is the author's main purpose in writing the last paragraph
A To give advice.
B. To correct an error.
C. To compare occupations.
D. To recall regrettable experiences.
C
By experiencing the sensations of the reality around us, we create
a subjective understanding of what reality is. Language came into
being with the development of mankind. It requires the use of more
than one of the basic five human senses, which shows that language
is a complex process that brings huge power along with it. This
power is so strong that it can demonstrate that language can influence
the way we think. Language can be an amazing tool for change, both
positive and negative.
Language can completely change our perception of time. The
changed perception of time isn't the only way language affects how
we think. Our sense of self is also significantly changed, especially if
a person is bilingual (双语的). Depending on which language a person
who is bilingual is using, his sense of self changes. The differences
may even become so great as to change his personalities.
Word teaching plays an important part in education, so to expand
language is to expand the ability to think. We can see this in children,
whose thinking develops hand in hand with language. It helps a great
deal to increase their “word power” by learning new words in order
to develop new ideas and new ways of thinking.
The increase in “word power” extends to those who lack the
sense of hearing, thanks to the modern invention of sign language.
Since the beginning, sign language has allowed deaf people to become
fully literate. Whether we are deaf or not, language transforms
experience and connects us to the past as well as the future. Be
mindful of how important language is to our perception of reality and
all its various aspects, and we can empower ourselves beyond our
present limitations and expand our awareness.
8. What is the relationship between language and senses
A. Opposite. B. Correlative.
C. Independent. D. Competitive.
9. What does paragraph 2 highlight about language
A. Its role. B. Its formation.
C. Its changes. D. Its differences.
10. How can children's thinking ability be developed according to the
text
A. By enlarging their vocabulary.
B. By learning about their limitations.
C. By changing their ways of speaking.
D. By transforming their past experiences.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Why Does Language Connect Us Closely
B. When Should We Achieve Language Skills
C. How Does Language Influence Our Thoughts
D. What Should We Do to Learn Language Well
D
A team of physicists at the University of Edinburgh, working
with an infection and immunity specialist, has, via experimentation,
validated a theory to explain why paint dries at the same rate
regardless of humidity (湿度) levels.
Generally, paint should dry faster on an outdoor fence on a dry
day than when it is humid because evaporation (蒸发) occurs faster
when the air around a liquid source is drier. But evidence suggests
this is not the case for paint and some other liquids. Chemist Salmon
and his colleagues developed a theory to explain why. They suggested
it is because large molecules in the liquid are pulled to the surface
during evaporation, forming a “polarization layer” that prevents
evaporation, and by extension, drying. In this new effort, the research
team worked to test this theory.
The researchers drilled five holes into a short cylinder (圆柱体)
and inserted glass tubes in a horizontal position — each was then
sealed in place. They then added a quantity of PVA, a kind of
chemical substance, into the cylinder, which they placed on a scale.
They poured a thin layer of oil on top of the liquid to prevent
surface evaporation. The final touch involved placing an air flow box
over the top of the cylinder to allow for controlling humidity levels.
The team then ran multiple 17-hour trials to determine evaporation
rates, using the scale to measure how much liquid evaporated from
the tubes at different humidity levels, ranging from 25% to 90%.
The researchers found that as expected, evaporation rates remained
constant for approximately three hours. But then, rates ___________,
as was theorized by Salmon, regardless of humidity levels. The
evaporation rate didn't decrease as humidity increased during the initial
three hours. However, the theory only appeared to hold for humidity
levels up to 80% — at rates higher than that, evaporation did slow
down, which the team suggested was likely due to some other forces.
The researchers suggested their work could have medical
applications as recent research efforts have shown that respiratory
droplets (呼吸道飞沫) tend to form skins similar to those seen in the
experimental equipment.
plummeted
12. What is Salmon's theory aimed at proving
A. The link between evaporation and drying time.
B. The connection between humidity and dryness.
C. The structure of the “polarization layer” on paint.
D. The impact of humidity on the drying rate of paint.
13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The test result. B. The post-test evaluation.
C. The research prediction. D. The experimental process.
14. What does the underlined word “plummeted” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Fell. B. Kept.
C. Disappeared. D. Accelerated.
15. How do the researchers find the study
A. It is tentative. B. It is effortless.
C. It is promising. D. It is controversial.

一篇完整的短文。
Being a train driver, I must concentrate on my driving when
working. And on that particular day, I was glad for my outstanding
attention.
From a distance, I spotted a small figure like a thin kid on the
train tracks. Immediately, I rang the alarm, but no response. Observing
carefully, I saw a boy lying on the tracks, unable to escape from my
train, as his foot was stuck. I pulled the brakes with all my might as
soon as I could. Luckily, the train stopped a few inches from the boy,
who was crying loudly in fear.
I approached him, asking how he felt and whether I could give a
hand. After getting his permission, I cautiously checked how his foot
was stuck in the tracks. And after a few pulls, the boy's foot came
out finally. Hugging him and making sure everything was okay, I
asked whether I needed to call his parents. To my astonishment, the
child said nothing, just looking at me with his tearful eyes.
Considering it was dangerous to leave the boy alone, I decided to
take him to my home after work.
Arriving at my home, I introduced him to my wife, Amelia. She
looked at the child in surprise for a while, but she calmed down
quickly and asked whether the boy remembered her. The boy nodded.
Amelia explained to me that she had just walked out of the
supermarket with some bread and vegetables the other day, when a
group of bad guys blocked her way. Just then, a little boy ran toward
them and screamed to attract the police, which at last saved her. Here
stood the brave boy.
In the following hours, we chatted with each other, and thus we
knew that the kid was named Tom and he was abandoned by his
parents and became an orphan who had been alone on the streets for
years. As we didn't have any children, we were determined to adopt
Tom.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I told Tom our decision, waiting for his answer.

The next morning, we opened our bedroom door and saw Tom

【答案】I told Tom our decision, waiting for his answer. Tom
stared at me, with a mix of feelings — shock, delight, or
something else. Amelia couldn't wait to say in a soft and sweet
voice, “Tom, I love you and I need you.” I could feel his struggle,

for him to accept the whole thing in a flash, I suggested a good
night to think it over.
The next morning, we opened our bedroom door and saw Tom
standing there. Being somewhat embarrassed, he took one of my
hands, “You won't abandon me, right ” I nodded firmly and
promised that we would treat him as our own, without cheating
or abandonment. On hearing this, he hugged both of us tightly,
saying affectionately, “Dad! Mom!” Later, he jumped and ran full
of joy, “I have a new family! I have Dad and Mom! I am no
longer an orphan.” You see, love can not only make someone a
day, but also make strangers a new family.
