Besides Marie Curie, these women devoted their lives to science and made significant advances.
Caroline Herschel(1750—1848)
Herschel was ill-treated by her parents in Hanover until her older brother, William, brought her to England in 1772 to run his household in Bath. Later, her brother switched careers from singing and went into astronomy. Caroline followed. In addition to assisting her brother in his observations and in the building of telescopes, Caroline became a brilliant astronomer in her own right. She was the first woman to discover a comet (she discovered eight in total) and the first to have her work published by the Royal Society.
Barbara McClintock(1902—1992)
While studying botany at Cornell University in the 1920s, Barbara McClintock got her first taste of genetics and was hooked. She continued her research at universities in California, Missouri and Germany before finding a permanent home at Cold Spring Harbor in New York. It was there that, after observing the patterns of coloration of; corn kernels over generations of plants, she determined that genes could move within and between chromosomes. McClintock was awarded a Lasker Prize in 1981 and Nobel Prize in 1983.
Maria Goeppert Mayer(1906—1972)
A German immigrant to the US who studied at Johns Hopkins during the Great Depression, Maria Goeppert Mayer, born in 1906 , continued her studies even when no university would employ her and went on to become a chemical physicist. Her most famous contribution to modern physics is discovering the nuclear shell of the atomic nucleus, for which she won the Nobel Prize in 1963. She was the second woman to win a Nobel Prize, after Marie Curie.
1. Who might Caroline Herschel be most grateful to for her achievements in astronomy?
A. Her parents. B. Her brother.
C. The Royal Society. D. Astronomers of her time.
2. How did Barbara McClintock draw the final conclusion?
A. By tasting corn kernels. B. By making rough guesses.
C. By making careful observations. D. By researching at universities.
3. Who was the first woman Nobel Prize winner?
A. Caroline Herschel. B. Barbara McClintock.
C. Maria Goeppert Mayer. D. Marie Curie.
【答案】1. B 2. C 3. D

After graduating from high school in 2019, with only a few simple tools and no prior construction experience, Grankvist set out into the vast Swedish wilderness to realize his dream of building a secluded log cabin by hand- all by himself.
With no construction crew or complex machinery, Grankvist chopped down trees, built a stone foundation, and stacked logs on top of one another to create his humble off-the-grid (脱离电网的) home. The entire project is documented on Grankvist's YouTube channel, where viewers can find several videos of his journey-from braving the Swedish winter to learning how to throw axes.
I must admit that when I first heard about Grankvist's project, my initial thought was: “But what about college?” Did this man have any long term plans for his future that didn't involve building a log cabin? What about building a steady career path? Did he consider constructing a reliable retirement fund?
But as these questions were running through my mind, another one struck me: “Why does it matter?”
Why do we so often measure success by amount of schooling or the so-called longevity of a stable career path? If building a log cabin alone in the middle of a Swedish forest will make you happy, then why wouldn't you pursue that instead of a stable job, even if it might mean you make less money in the long run? Who's telling you that pursuing such a project isn't the “right” choice?
I know it's easy to talk a big game. it's not as easy to drop out of school and pursue your wildest fantasy full-time. What matters is that you never lose sight of what is truly important to you and where your passions lie, even if you can't put everything else on hold. So, in the midst of the rat race, tree by tree, don't forget to build your log cabin.
4. What CAN’T viewers find on Grankvist's YouTube channel?
A. He built a stone foundation. B. He used complex machines.
C. He faced up to the harsh winter. D. He learned to how to use axes.
5. Why is the story of Grankvist mentioned?
A. To criticize the traditional high school classroom teaching.
B. To explain the fantastic project made by Grankvist.
C. To think highly of the boy for his cleverness.
D. To lead up to the topic of what truly matters in life.
6. Which sentence below can show the author's supportive attitude to Grankist's cabin-building experience?
A. Did this man have any long-term plans for his future that didn't involve building a log cabin?
B. Did he consider constructing a reliable retirement fund?
C. What about building a steady career path?
D. Who's telling you that pursuing such a project isn't the “right” choice?
7. What message does the author want to convey?
A. Have long-term aims for our future. B. Go off the grid and build your “log cabin”.
C. Never talk a big game. D. Make a balance between your passion and career.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。Grankvist在高中毕业之后没有继续求学，而是去荒野之林中建立自己的小木屋。作者借Grankvist这件事，来探讨人们做选择时究竟什么最重要。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“With no construction crew or complex machinery, Grankvist chopped down trees, built a stone foundation, and stacked logs on top of one another to create his humble off-the-grid (脱离电网的) home.(没有施工队或复杂的机械，Grankvist砍倒树木，建了一个石头地基，一个接一个地堆放原木，创造了他简陋的、没有电的家)”可知，Grankvist并没有使用复杂的机器。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“I must admit that when I first heard about Grankvist's project, my initial thought was: “But what about college?” Did this man have any long term plans for his future that didn't involve building a log cabin? What about building a steady career path? Did he consider constructing a reliable retirement fund?( 我必须承认，当我第一次听到Grankvist的项目时，我最初的想法是：“但大学怎么办？这个人对他的未来有什么长远的计划而不包括建造一个小木屋吗？建立一条稳定的职业道路怎么样？他考虑过建立一个可靠的退休基金吗？)”可推知，作者借Grankvist这件事，来探讨人们做选择时究竟什么最重要。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Why do we so often measure success by amount of schooling or the so-called longevity of a stable career path? If building a log cabin alone in the middle of a Swedish forest will make you happy, then why wouldn't you pursue that instead of a stable job, even if it might mean you make less money in the long run? Who's telling you that pursuing such a project isn't the “right” choice?(为什么我们总是用受教育的程度或所谓的稳定职业道路的寿命来衡量成功？如果在瑞典的森林中独自建造一间小木屋会让你感到快乐，那么你为什么不去追求它而不是一份稳定的工作，即使这可能意味着从长远来看你赚的钱会更少？谁告诉你追求这样一个项目不是“正确”的选择？)”可推知，D选项“谁告诉你追求这样一个项目不是‘正确’的选择？”可以表明作者对Grankvist的小屋建造经历的支持态度。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I know it's easy to talk a big game. it's not as easy to drop out of school and pursue your wildest fantasy full-time. What matters is that you never lose sight of what is truly important to you and where your passions lie, even if you can't put everything else on hold. So, in the midst of the rat race, tree by tree, don't forget to build your log cabin.(我知道夸夸其谈很容易。辍学去追求你最疯狂的幻想可不是件容易的事。重要的是，你永远不会忘记什么是真正对你重要的，你的激情在哪里，即使你不能把其他的事情搁置。所以，在激烈的竞争中，一棵一棵地，别忘了建造你的小木屋)”可推知，作者想传递的想法就是摆脱世俗束缚，去寻求自己真正想要的东西。故选B。
C
Microsoft has announced a policy requiring its contractors to offer employees a minimum of 12 weeks' paid parental leave to care for a newborn baby, paying them up to $1,000 a week. The policy, which affects US- based companies that do work for the technology company and have more than 50 employees, will be rolled out over the next year. It will affect people including the company's cafeteria workers, door keepers and IT support staff.
Microsoft said it was inspired by a new Washington state law for paid parental leave taking effect in 2020. The new law only applies to contractors' and suppliers' employees in that state, so Stahlkopf, the company's general counsel, said they wanted to expand it so it wouldn't leave thousands of valued contributors outside of Washington behind.
The new policy will bring the parental leave benefits of affected contractors in line with those of full-time employees, who also get 12 weeks' paid parental leave, while birth mothers get an additional 8 weeks' paid time off.
"The case for paid parental leave is clear,” said Stahlkopf, in a blog post, citing various studies showing that it improves productivity, morale and retention of new mothers, “Further, when men and women have the opportunity to take paid leave, it can help counteract gender caregiving stereotypes and promote equity in the home and office,” added Stahlkopf.
Ellen Bravo, co-director of Family Values@ Work, a group that promotes paid leave, praised Microsoft for the move. “We applaud Microsoft for the leadership they've given in the fight for paid leave,” Bravo told CNN. “At the same time, we have to ensure the time spent, caring babies does not remain a workplace benefit dependent on who you work for or where you live.”
Microsoft has been under pressure to improve working conditions for contractors after some workers unionized in 2014 and started pushing for benefits like paid leave. In 2015, Microsoft announced it would require its suppliers to give their workers at least 15 days' paid time off.
8. What inspired Microsoft to adopt the new policy?
A. A new law in Washington. B. Its contractors' requirement.
C. Its full-time workers' proposal. D. Its general counsel's kindness.
9. If a full-time employee of Microsoft bears a child, how long is the paid leave she will enjoy according to the text?
A. 15 days. B. 8 weeks. C. 12 weeks. D. 20 weeks.
10. Which of the following statements will Bravo probably agree with?
A. All employees should enjoy paid parental leave.
B. Only Washingtonians deserve paid parental leave.
C. Microsoft is under pressure to adopt the new policy.
D. Microsoft employees are so lucky to get paid parental leave.
11. What is the passage about?
A. The influence of a new Washington state law.
B. Microsoft improving working conditions for contractors.
C. Microsoft requiring contractors to offer paid parental leave.
D. The benefits of paid parental leave.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是新闻报道。微软将要求其规模在50人以上的美国承包商为员工提供至少12周的带薪育儿假，介绍了此举背后的原因、影响以及人们对此的看法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Microsoft said it was inspired by a new Washington state law for paid parental leave taking effect in 2020.(微软表示，此举是受到华盛顿州一项将于2020年生效的带薪育儿假新法律的启发)”可知，是华盛顿的一项新法律促使微软采取了这项新政策。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The new policy will bring the parental leave benefits of affected contractors in line with those of full-time employees, who also get 12 weeks' paid parental leave, while birth mothers get an additional 8 weeks' paid time off.(新政策将使受影响的合同工的产假福利与全职员工相同，后者还将获得12周的带薪产假，而产妇将额外获得8周的带薪假期)”可知，如果微软的全职员工生了孩子，她可以享受20周的带薪假期。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“At the same time, we have to ensure the time spent caring babies does not remain a workplace benefit dependent on who you work for or where you live.(与此同时，我们必须确保花在照顾婴儿上的时间不会仅仅是一项取决于你为谁工作或住在哪里的工作福利)”可推断，A选项“所有员工都应该享受带薪育儿假”的观点Bravo会认同。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Microsoft has announced a policy requiring its contractors to offer employees a minimum of 12 weeks' paid parental leave to care for a newborn baby, paying them up to $1,000 a week.(微软宣布了一项政策，要求其承包商为员工提供至少12周的带薪育儿假，以照顾新生儿，每周最高支付1000美元)”结合文章说明了微软将要求其规模在50人以上的美国承包商为员工提供至少12周的带薪育儿假，介绍了此举背后的原因、影响以及人们对此的看法。可知，文章主要介绍了微软要求承包商提供带薪产假。故选C。
D
Cetaceans(鲸目动物) communicate through sound to find food and to interact socially. Their sounds vary between species and within communities. The long-finned pilot whales can mimic (模仿) artificial noise, but nobody had previously recorded them. A new study, however, found overlap in the cetacean sound book.
Pilot whales and orcas(虎鲸)，the two largest species of cetaceans, are often seen in the same environments and are similar sizes, and both live in social groups with strong union, says Charlotte Cure, a researcher at CEREMA Lab in France, who was not involved in the study. Orcas compete for food with long-finned pilot whales and are potentially their predators.
Evidence from orca stomachs shows they do occasionally eat pilot whales. But pilot whales can mob(成群田住) and chase them away, the only cetaceans seen defending themselves from the strong enemies in this way.
Mimicry could serve as additional defense; “One assumption is that if they use similar sounds, they may not be recognized as prey," Erbe says. Pilot whales eating orcas' food remains might go unnoticed if they use orca-like calls. “This is all underwater," she adds, “so these animals rely on sound for detecting their prey and predators.”Long-finned pilot whales have shown an ability to distinguish between orca calls with different meanings; Cure suggests that instead of tricking orcas, the callers could instead be presenting a new orca sound to other group members.
Additional work would confirm whether mimicry is actually occurring. Researchers could pair their listening data with direct observations of the animals' interactions in the wild or perhaps even play orca sounds and watch the whales' reactions.
But if a future experiment used predatory sounds, it would need to be done. very carefully.“A reaction to a predator can be very strong," Cure says.“In some protected areas, you are not allowed to do more than two predatory playbacks per year."
12. Which of the following is NOT shared by the pilot whales and orcas?
A. They communicate through sound.
B. They often live in the same environments.
C. They can defend themselves through mimicry.
D. They always live together with other group members.
13. What do we know from the fourth paragraph?
A. The pilot whales mimic the sounds to detect their prey.
B. The pilot whales only mimic one kind of the sounds of the orcas.
C. The pilot whales can pretend to be orcas to share the food remains.
D. The pilot whales can distinguish different meanings of orca calls to trick them.
14. How do the researchers confirm whether mimicry is actually occurring?
A. By observing the whales from the distance.
B. By mimicking the sounds in the experiment.
C. By analyzing the data from the cetacean sound book.
D. By listening or playing the sounds and watching the whales' reactions.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Pilot Whales: Copy Orca Calls B. How Orcas Mimic Pilot Whale Calls
C. How Pilot Whales Defend Themselves D. Orcas and Pilot Whales: Predators and Prey
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主题语境是人与自然，讲述长肢领航鲸拥有模仿虎鲸声音的能力。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段可知，pilot whales可以模仿声音，但并未提及orcas可以模仿声音。A选项根据第一句话“Cetaceans(鯨目动物) communicate through sound to find food and to interact socially.（鲸目动物通过声音交流来寻找食物和社交。）”可以看出来；B选项根据第二段中的“...are often seen in the same environments（经常在相同的环境中被看见）”可以看出来；D选项根据第二段中的“…live in social groups with strong union”(...他们都是群居动物)可以看出来。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Pilot whales eating orcas' food remains might go unnoticed if they use orca-like calls.”（如果领航鲸使用类似虎鲸的声音，那它们吃虎鲸的食物残渣便不会被发现）”可知，领航鲸可以假装是虎鲸来分享食物残渣。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。通过倒数第二段“Researchers could pair their listening data with direct observations of the animals' interactions in the wild or perhaps even play orca sounds and watch the whales' reactions.”（研究人员可以将他们听觉的数据和直接观察到的野生动物之间的互动进行匹配，甚至可以播放虎鲸的声音、观察长肢领航鲸的反应）可知，通过播放虎鲸的声音来观察领航鲸的反应。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“The long-finned pilot whales can mimic artificial noise, but nobody had previously recorded them. A new study, however, found overlap in the cetacean sound book.（长鳍领航鲸可以模仿人工噪音，但之前没有人对它们进行过记录。然而，一项新的研究发现，鲸类动物的声音书中有重叠部分。）”，可以得出本文是讲述长肢领航鲸拥有模仿虎鲸声音的能力。故选A。

Are all changes god?
It is a commonly held belief that as people get older, they become resistant to change.

Take____41____ (architect) for example. In the 1950s and 1960s, many older British people were highly critical of the new concrete housing blocks that suddenly sprang up in cities, ____42____ (say) that they were ugly and depressing places to live in. They were ____43____ (tell) that they were simply being old-fashioned and that they were incapable of appreciating the advantages of these new buildings, which had replaced the streets of small houses that they were familiar with. ____44____ decades later, these very same blocks were being pulled____45____, as new generations decided they were both ugly and bad for society.

【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了随着年龄的增长人们会抗拒改变，因为他们看不到进步的好处。文章以建筑为例说明了每一代人对一个新发展的观点态度总是不同。
【36题详解】
考查同位语从句的引导词。句意：他们抱怨过去的情况更好，或者一些新的发展不好，这些都可以被认为是人们不可避免的想法，他们只是不喜欢改变，因此看不到进步的好处。 根据or可知此处要用引导词that，连接并列的同位语从句，作complaints的同位语。故填that。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意：他们抱怨过去的情况更好，或者一些新的发展不好，这些都可以被认为是人们不可避免的想法，他们只是不喜欢改变，因此看不到进步的好处。 此处要用副词修饰谓语动词don't like。故填simply。
【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意：他们抱怨过去的情况更好，或者一些新的发展不好，这些都可以被认为是人们不可避免的想法，他们只是不喜欢改变，因此看不到进步的好处。 根据系动词are 可知此处要用形容词，作表语。故填unable。
【39题详解】

【42题详解】

【43题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：他们被告知，这些建筑只是过时了，他们无法欣赏这些新建筑的优点，因为它们已经取代了他们熟悉的街道上的小房子。分析句子可知，此处是谓语动词，根据主语They与tell之间是被动关系，可知此处要用被动语态，已有were ，可知此处要用动词的过去分词。故填told。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意：然而，几十年后，这些同样的街区被拆除了，因为新一代人认为它们既丑陋又对社会有害。根据these very same blocks were being pulled 10 可知与上文内容形成对比转折，此处要用表示转折的连词yet或是but。故填Yet/But。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意：然而，几十年后，这些同样的街区被拆除了，因为新一代人认为它们既丑陋又对社会有害。动词短语pull down“摧毁，拆除”，是固定搭配。故填down。

As we can see in the picture, a boy is standing high on top of many books looking far into the distance.
Such a picture reminds me of a Chinese poem “to enjoy a grander sight, climb to a greater height”. Like the steps to the greater height, books can help broaden our horizons and improve our understanding of the world. The more books we read, the more knowledge we will gain, the more learned we will be, and the broader horizons we will have. So pick up books and read! A more exciting world is waiting for us to explore.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In my thirty-year teaching profession, one of the best teachers I have ever known is Mr Rowe. I was lucky enough to teach fourth grade together with him.
Mr. Rowe had endless patience and understanding and I learned so much from watching him. He could perform miracles, like the one he performed with Steven, one of the unhappiest kids I had ever seen. Steven couldn’t stand school. He didn’t like being picked last for kickball. He didn’t like the kids who raised their hands and knew all the answers, and most importantly, he didn’t like himself.
The first day he walked into Mr. Rowe’s classroom, he ignored the other students, looking angry and annoyed, and slid into his chair, knocking a couple of textbooks onto the floor.
Mr. Rowe walked over to him and touched Steven’s shoulder, but Steven pulled away. Nevertheless, Mr. Rowe welcomed him:“Hi, Steven. I’m happy you are in my class. We are gonna have a great year.” Steven looked around the room as if Mr. Rowe must be mistaken. No teacher in his right mind would want Steven to be part of his classroom. So, while Mr. Rowe seemed cheerful and relaxed that day of school, it seemed like Steven was angry and confused.
That day after classes Mr. Rowe chose Steven to pitch (投球) the kickball during the break. “Hey, Steven,” Mr. Rowe commented, “You are good at pitching. Let me show you my secret trick.” Mr. Rowe taught Steven one of the tricks that not a single kid could perform. Steven learned fast and did quite well! Everyone cheered for him!
After the kickball, Steven sat as close to Mr. Rowe in classes as he could. When a question was asked, Steven lit up; when he knew the answer, he raised his hand; when he answered the question, his voice shook. However, he got the answer right! He said, with Mr. Rowe, his days of the fourth grade promised wonderful. It was obvious that Steven grew to love Mr. Rowe more and more with each passing day.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右：

Time passed quickly that year, and before we all knew it, it was the last day of school.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Many years later, Mr. Rowe and I were surprised when a handsome young man walked into our classroom, dressed in the army uniform.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1：
Time passed quickly that year, and before we all knew it, it was the last day of school. All the teachers filled the sidewalk, waving goodbye to the kids. But on that particular day, Steven walked slowly to the bus, his head down, tears in his eyes. He boarded the bus reluctantly, hesitated, and then ran back off the bus to hug Mr. Rowe. “I don’t want to leave you.” He sobbed. With red-rimmed eyes, Mr. Rowe comforted him, “I will miss you, too.”
Paragraph 2：
Many years later, Mr. Rowe and I were surprised when a handsome young man walked into our classroom, dressed in the army uniform. The young man stood tall and proud. It was Steven! Mr. Rowe and I couldn’t believe our eyes. He saluted and hugged Mr. Rowe tightly! “I have come back to school today just to say thanks to you!” It is my hope that every teacher is blessed with such a wonderful experience of a former student coming back to say, simply to say a very simple THANKS.
