Three Books for a More Honest View of Mother
Life Among the Savages, Shirley Jackson
Shirley Jackson, author of one of the most wonderful novels of all time, The Haunting of Hill House, and of the short story The Lottery, also wrote two charming autobiographical.（自传的）novels about raising her four children in a farmhouse in rural Vermont. In my favorite, Life Among the Savages, Jackson’s humor is as smart as her horror is scaring and her children seem never to inspire in her anything worse than a fond anger.
A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You, Amy Bloom
A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You contains one of the most absolute expressions of a mother’s love in fiction. Much of it takes place in the waiting room of a gender-reassignment surgeon. It’s about a woman who is determined to be the mother her child needs her to be. In this book, ordinary women rise to the occasion demanded by motherhood, they make mistakes but they generally succeed in making up for them.
Family Man, Calvin Trillin
My last recommendation is not about mothers at all, but rather about fathers,or rather one father in particular. In Family Man, Calvin Trillin writes about his wife and daughters. He gives what I think is the most useful piece of parenting advice: “Getting advice on the best way to bring up children is like getting advice on the best way to breathe. Sooner or later you’re probably going to forget it and go back to your regular old in-and-out.” Trillin gives the impression of being the best kind of husband.
21. Which is written by Amy Bloom?
A. The Lottery. B. Life Among the Savages.
C. The Haunting of Hill House. D. A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You.
22. What can we get from Family Man?
A. Advice on how to raise children.
B. Advice on how to be a successful writer
C. Advice on how to get along with others.
D. Advice on how to balance between work and family.
23. What is the purpose of the text?
A.To educate. B. To introduce. C. To advertise. D. To advise.
B
It is Britain’s most brutal running race—268 miles non-stop along the Pennine Way. Jasmin Paris, who is still breastfeeding her daughter, beat 136 other competitors from 15 countries, 125 men included, to win the Montane Spine Race.She broke the men’s record by over 12 hours.
To train for the race, Paris had to get up at 4, when she would head out for runs in the hills around her home while her family were still in bed. She also went on plenty of long hikes with her baby.
She was on the course for 83 hours and 12 minutes, pausing to power nap and eat for only seven hours. She had to carry everything she needed and had to navigate using a map and compass, mostly alone and in the dark. But she was relentless（坚韧的）. Almost 20 hours after she had finished, only two men had completed the race, with everyone else either still on the course or retired.
Top British ultra runner and former Spine Race finisher Damian Hall says: “Her performance was extraordinary—one of the great British ultra-running performances.” Olympian Jo Pavey says Paris’s performance was “awesome and inspiring.”
Since finishing, Paris has caught lots of attention, with television appearances and Chelsea Clinton tweeting about her victory. “This has been harder than the race,” she says. “At least then I just had one job to do: keep putting one foot in front of the other.” All she craves now is a good night’s sleep.
24. How long did Paris stop during the race?
A. 7 hours. B. 12 hours. C. 20 hours. D. 83 hours.
25. Which of the following can best describe Paris?
A. Kind and devoted. B. Inspiring and determined.
C. Considerate and Brave. D. Generous and hard-working.
26. What did Paris think harder than running?
A. Training for the face. B. Taking care of her young baby.
C. Getting good night’s sleep. D. Dealing with the public attention.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Longest Running Race B. A Mother and Her Young Baby
C. A Woman Beating Men’s Record D. The Hardest Race in the World
C
Studies show that reading for pleasure makes a big difference to children’s educational performance. Evidence suggests that children who read for enjoyment every day not only perform better in reading tests than those who don’t, but also develop a broader vocabulary increased general knowledge and a better understanding of other cultures.
In fact, reading for pleasure is more likely to determine whether a child does well at school than their social or economic background.
Parents are the most important educators in a child’s life—even more important than their teachers-and it’s never too early to start reading together. Even before they’re born, babies learn to recognize their parents’ voices. Reading to your baby from birth, even for just a few minutes a day, gives them the comfort of hearing your voice and increases their communication with language.
Learning to read is about listening and understanding as well as working out what’s printed on the page. Through hearing stories, children are in a wide range of words. This helps them build their own vocabulary, which is important as they start to read. It’s important for them to understand how stories work too. Even if your child doesn’t understand every word, they’ll hear new sounds, words and phrases which they can then tryout,copying what they have heard.
As children start to learn to read at school, you can play an important role in helping to keep them interested in books. Find out what interests them, help them to find books that will be fun and spend time reading the books they bring home from school together.
28. What will reading do to children?
A. Make them smarter. B. Improve their social skills.
C. Ensure their health. D. Improve their performance at school.
29. What is more important to determine a child’s performance at school according to the text?
A. Social skills. B. Social background. C. Reading for fun. D. Economic background.
30. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Few. B. Many. C. New. D. Strange.
31. How can parents help children when they start to learn to read at school?
A. Find their interest. B. Work out with them.
C. Buy more books for them. D. Keep their interest in reading.
D
The earth is warming.The past years are the warmest on record. Greenhouse gases from human activities are responsible for 1.1°C of average warming since 1900. What we’re experiencing is different from the global average. We experience extreme weather—historic droughts, serious heatwaves, violent storms and catastrophic（灾难性的）floods.
We won’t feel the impact of our efforts for decades. But we must know our future today so we can act now. To develop the best strategies for adaptation, we need climate models to predict the climate in different regions over decades. Unlike predicting the weather, climate models are multi-decade simulations（模拟）modeling the physics chemistry and biology of the atmosphere, waters, ice, land and human activities.
Greater resolution is needed to model changes in the global climate. Scientists estimate that these resolutions will demand billions of times more computing power than what’s currently available. It would take decades to achieve that through the ordinary course of computing advances.
For the first time, we have the technology to do that. We can achieve million-x speedups by combining three technologies: GPU-accelerated computing; breakthroughs in physics-informed neural（神经的）networks and AI supercomputers, along with vast quantities of data to learn from.
With these techniques, we may have within our grasp the billion-x leap needed to do ultra-high-resolution（超高分辨率）climate modeling. And with more accurate predictions people and nations will act with more urgency.
NVIDIA this week announced plans to build the world’s most powerful AI supercomputer used to predict climate change Named Earth-2, the system would create a digital twin of the Earth. The system would be the climate change to Cambridge-1 the world’s most powerful AI supercomputer for healthcare research.
32. What is one of the results mentioned in the text of global warming?
A. Water shortage. B. Loss of coastal cities. C. Rise of sea level. D. More extreme weather.
33. Why is it difficult to model global climate?
A. It will cost billions of money. B. The climate changes frequently.
C. Technology now can't meet the needs. D. The model of the earth is too difficult to build.
34. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. What advance AI has made recently.
B. What makes it hard to model the global climate.
C. What makes modelling the global climate possible.
D. What scientists’ plan to model the global climate is.
35. What is the text?
A. A travel guide. B. A news report. C. A short story. D. A science fiction.

Why I Always Travel with a Paper Map in Hand
The first thing I do when I arrive in a foreign city is find a paper map. To me, it’s the single most important task I have to accomplish upon arrival.
36 I learn where I am in relation to the rest of the city the names of neighborhoods and the major street. I figure out where the subway stations are, how I can get to the best walking routes.
Then I use that paper map to figure out which sights are closest to each other and how I can use my time most efficiently. 37 I note the neighborhoods I want to visit along the way.
No doubt you may wonder why I don’t just pull out my phone. I do own a smartphone with GPS. 38 It shows a specific destination and a precise route to get there. But it doesn’t put the journey into context（环境）, which I dislike. I always want to know where I am in relation to everything else.
My trusty map, on the other hand, is all about context. Ask me the nearest bridge, major market or landmark, and I’ll be able to tell you in an instant. Besides a paper map does not run out of battery. 39 It is easily replaceable.
For a traveler like me, that paper map is like an entrance into another world. Staring at it transports me into a dreamlike state. I imagine all the places I’ll go and the things will do. 40
A. It never has a poor connection.
B. But I don’t have the habit of using GPS.
C. And all these makes me become a responsible tourist.
D. That map, you see, is my key to getting around the city.
E. However, I think my phone’s GPS robs me of something.
F. And it enables me to begin planning how I’ll make it happen.
G. I put dots where the bookstores, restaurants and museums are.

阅读下列材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
At Lowe’s, the home improvement chain, a “LoweBot” in some stores can answer simple 56 (question), such as where to find items and can help with monitoring. These robots free workers 57 routine tasks, giving humans more time for customer interaction. But that’s only the beginning.
The real benefit of retail（零售）robots is the opportunity to capture more data about the products on the shelves and customer buying patterns which can increase efficiency and accuracy in 58 (manage).
59 key is using retail robots as data-collectors within an internet-of-things. It is thought of as a complex network of connected devices, objects and sensors gathering data. And the data 60 (analyze) in the cloud or with edge computing,which uses nearby servers to lower latency（潜伏期）. As the robots move around stores they capture photos of every shelf and aisle, 61 are transformed into insights about out-of-stock merchandise and pricing.
Such detailed data is 62 (especial) valuable in retail, where 63 (understand) consumers’ demands is essential. For example, Stitch Fix, which 64 (provide) just-for-you clothing choices to shoppers at home, completes its data science in multiple aspects of 65 (it) business model, from product recommendation to management and fashion design.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
However small you are, you can also give help or support to others. I didn’t believe this until I saw my grandfather weep that day.
I grew up in Southern California, and my family often went to Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, and Sea World. The highlight of those park visits for me was always the evening festivities, when there would be fireworks.
As I grew older and more observant（善于观察的）, I noticed that my grandfather would go missing just before the fireworks were scheduled to start and reappear shortly after they finished. I asked my mother about this and was told that Grandpa didn’t like to hear the noise of the explosions. They reminded him of the war and his fellows who died in the war. So every time there were fireworks, he would go inside the bathrooms until they were done. I felt surprised because my grandfather was such a strong man.
One summer night, somewhere near my tenth birthday, my family and I exited a ride just in time to hear over the loudspeakers, “In only two minutes the lights will be turned off around the Rivers of America, and Disneyland will present their fireworks in the skies over the park.” At this moment, Grandpa was just in front of me and when he heard the announcement, he started jogging ahead without a word to anyone. Without really thinking, I took off after him, against the orders of my mother who repeatedly called after me to stay with the rest of the family. Grandpa, unaware that I was behind him, tried desperately to walk through the masses of people who stopped in the street waiting for the show to begin.
As he tried to reach the restrooms, the first shell（烟花弹）broke in the skies above us. Grandpa paused and looked up, just looking as if he had been hit by a shot. And then he kept moving forward. As shell after shell burst overhead, he struggled forward, and almost fell over before he could sit onto a bench nearby.
