In 1822 Babbage exhibited his inventin and wn a prize frm the gvernment.After that,he immediately started t wrk n a larger machine designed t slve mre difficult prblems.Althugh he received sme mney left by his father,the mney was nt enugh t supprt his design.He wrte t the gvernment abut his plan and was given￡2 500 t start with,a sum wrth much mre in thse days than it is nw.
Babbage cntinued his wrk in Lndn fr fur years.Then his health brke dwn,and he had t take a lng hliday abrad.When he returned t Lndn in 1828,he was at the end f his resurces.Many bills remained unpaid.His chief assistant and c-wrkers quarreled with him and left with many expensive tls.Fr ne year n wrk was dne.During his perid,Babbage,whse mind was always active,suddenly thught f a cmpletely new idea fr the machine.He rushed t meet the gvernment fficials t explain his new idea.But this time,they were unwilling t help him.Fr eight years,they refused t say whether they wanted it r nt,and their final answer was “N.”
Frm 1828 t 1839,Babbage held the psitin f prfessr at Cambridge very successfully.But his greatest wrk was the unfinished calculating machine which std cvered in dust in his huse.It was the beginning f the mdern cmputer.

Extinctins are seldm a cause fr celebratin.Humans are wiping ut species at a frightening rate,whether hunting them int histry r,far mre threateningly,damaging the habitats n which they depend.Hw,then,t think abut a new technlgy that will make driving a species t extinctin far easier?
That technlgy is knwn as a gene drive,s called because it uses genetic engineering t drive certain features thrugh a ppulatin.Thse characteristics need nt be harmful;they might becme strnger against disease amng crps r,perhaps,greater tlerance t warming waters n the part f crals.And if the species in questin were the three types f msquites respnsible fr spreading malaria(疟疾),it culd save clse t half millin lives a year,and many f them are children.The same apprach culd be used against ther diseases such as Lyme disease,and Zika.Gene drives als ffer us ptential weapn against freign species such as fxes,mice,rabbits and rats which are threatening native species in sme parts f the wrld.
Nrmally genes have a 50:50 chance f being passed n during reprductin.Gene drives tip the evlutinary scales.One area f research fcuses n genes that can cpy themselves t the secnd,ensuring that they will be passed n by all ffspring(后代).Like many technlgies,hwever,gene drives may lead t bad utcmes as well as gd.They culd in thery make species extinct.One cncern is practical: remving a species frm the fd chain culd have unintended cnsequences,particularly if gene drives can mve t a clsely related species.Anther relates t gvernance.Genetically mdified crps can be kept relatively cntained: animals carrying gene drives culd be mbile and respect n brders.One cuntry’s decisin t use gene drives will have cnsequences fr its neighburs.A third wrry cncerns imprper uses f the technlgy,and nt nly by states.A msquit,engineered t inject txins(毒素) culd be used as a weapn.But putting the brakes n research may pay real csts: nt just the annual rising number f deaths taken by malaria and ther killer befre an answer is fund,but als slwer prgress twards making gene drives safer.
【语篇解读】本文为议论文,作者就gene drives可能带来的利弊进行了探讨。
32.What’s the main idea f the secnd paragraph?
A.Diseases spread amng crps.
B.The definitin f gene drives.
C.The bright sides f gene drives.
D.The pssible ways against diseases.
答案C
解析主旨大意题。第二段中的“And if the species in questin were the three types f msquites respnsible fr spreading malaria,it culd save clse t half millin lives a year,and many f them are children.”可知,本段主要介绍了gene drives的优点,故选C项。
33.What des the underlined wrd “gvernance” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Management.B.Adjustment.
C.Instructins.D.Relevance.
答案A
解析词义猜测题。该词可根据构词法并结合下文语境猜测。由该词的下文举例可知,基因驱动的植物还相对好管理,而动物是流动的,一个国家关于基因驱动的决策会给其他国家造成影响。这些都属于管理方面的问题,所以选A项。
34.What attitude des the authr have twards gene drive research?
A.Uncncerned.B.Disapprving.
C.Ambiguus.D.Supprtive.
答案D
解析推理判断题。文章最后一段提到了作者对基因驱动研究的看法:对基因驱动研究采取刹车态度则会付出真真切切的代价。所以作者是支持该方面的研究的,故选D项。
35.What’s the best title fr the passage?
A.Prs and Cns f Gene Drives
B.Gene Drives Make Our Life Safer
C.Dangers Gene Drives Bring t Us
D.One Cncern We Dn’t Ignre
答案A
解析主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要讨论了基因驱动科技的优缺点,所以A项可作为本文的标题。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
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。
Often,when yu buy a cmputer,the laptp bag is verlked,but it is ne f the mst valuable things a cmputer wner can have.Mst chse a laptp simply because they want t be able t transprt it frm place t place. 36 The bag nt nly prtects the cmputer frm dirt r damage,it can als be used t carry ther laptp parts,such as spare batteries,a cmputer muse and any prtable equipment yu may have.
The first thing t cnsider when chsing the best laptp bag is what style f bag yu may want.The mst cmmn styles are the briefcase(公文包)and the backpack. 37 The briefcase gives a sense f prfessinalism while the backpack may be easier t carry much f the time.
A laptp bag shuld have bth a cmputer sleeve alng with several separate sectins.The sleeve helps keep the laptp frm mving t much in the bag.The sectins are gd fr strage f dcuments and ther things yu may want t transprt alng with the cmputer; 38
Anther thing when yu buy a laptp bag is making sure it is strngly sewed and has a slid bttm.These tw things will make yur bag much strnger,especially if it is the backpack style. 39 In sme cases,it may just be a few mnths befre a cmputer wner needs a new ne.Hwever if made prperly,laptp bags can last five r mre years.
40 Buying a clth bag may be a cheaper ptin,but leather bags are generally made better and are able t stand up t use much better.Besides,leather ffers a natural barrier t water when the cmputer is transprted thrugh rain r snw.
A.bviusly the frmer is mre imprtant,thugh.
B.Each ne has their wn advantages as laptp bags.
C.Materials als make a difference,especially in the briefcase style.
D.But withut a gd laptp bag that becmes much mre difficult
E.There are lts f chices when it cmes t chsing the best laptp bag.
F.this will prevent them rubbing up against the cmputer and scratching it.
G.Chsing a cheap bag withut these culd greatly reduce the life f the bag.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文,主要讲述了如何选择并购买电脑包。
36.D 空前提到the laptp bag,人们在买电脑的时候,电脑包是被忽略的。有些人选择手提电脑是因为可以随身携带。空后说的是电脑包的优势。所以D项 “But withut a gd laptp bag that becmes much mre difficult”符合上下文。D项的But起到了结构上的作用,将空前空后连接起来。
37.B 空前提到了“the briefcase and the backpack”公文包和双肩包两种电脑包的形式,空后提到了各自的优势,与B项中Each ne相一致,所以B项符合。
38.F 根据“ sleeve helps keep the laptp frm mving...”,并结合空前分号说明此处和空前谈论的是同一个内容,空前提到了分区有利于文件和其他东西的存放,是在讲分区的优势,所以此处也是讲优势,可以帮助避免物品之间的摩擦。这与F项“prevent them rubbing up against the cmputer and scratching it”相一致,故选F项。
39.G 根据“ strnger...”和下文“ a few mnths...”可知,空前提到了两个因素可以使得电脑包更加牢固,空后提到很多情况下,没几个月就要换一个新的。所以此处是讲电脑包的质量问题。如果选择一个没有以上优势的便宜的电脑包,会减少电脑包的使用寿命。这与G项中“ the life f the bag”相一致。
40.C 空后提到了“clth”和“leather”两种材料,所以此处是要讲“material”,这与C项一致。

答案与解析
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了银行卡和数字科技正在慢慢取代现金以及这种趋势对人们生活的影响。
56.are killing 考查主谓一致。 根据语境可知,此处应使用现在进行时,表示现阶段正在发生的动作以及一种趋势;且主语Cards and digital technlgies为复数形式,故填are killing。
57.necessarily 考查副词。nt necessarily为固定词组,表示“不一定,未必”。
58.the 考查定冠词。此处the time特指“需要使用现金交易的时间”,故填the。
59.is predicted 考查语态。此处用一般现在时陈述客观事实,且usage作主语,谓语动词用单数形式,与predict构成被动关系,故填is predicted。
60.faster 考查比较级。and前后连接两个并列成分,由mre cnvenient可知,此处应该也用形容词比较级。
61.handling 考查非谓语动词。此处作介词fr的宾语,故使用动词-ing形式作宾语。
62.banks 考查名词。and前后连接两个并列的成分,bank作名词意为“银行”,为可数名词,由于前面没有出现表单数概念的词来修饰,故用复数形式。
63.t increase 考查非谓语动词。be likely t d sth表示“有可能做某事”,故填t increase。
64.whether 考查连词。引导让步状语从句,表示“无论……还是……”,故填whether。
65.thers 考查代词。根据语境可知,表示“一些人……另一些人……”。

Extinctins are seldm a cause fr celebratin.Humans are wiping ut species at a frightening rate,whether hunting them int histry r,far mre threateningly,damaging the habitats n which they depend.Hw,then,t think abut a new technlgy that will make driving a species t extinctin far easier?
That technlgy is knwn as a gene drive,s called because it uses genetic engineering t drive certain features thrugh a ppulatin.Thse characteristics need nt be harmful;they might becme strnger against disease amng crps r,perhaps,greater tlerance t warming waters n the part f crals.And if the species in questin were the three types f msquites respnsible fr spreading malaria(疟疾),it culd save clse t half millin lives a year,and many f them are children.The same apprach culd be used against ther diseases such as Lyme disease,and Zika.Gene drives als ffer us ptential weapn against freign species such as fxes,mice,rabbits and rats which are threatening native species in sme parts f the wrld.
Nrmally genes have a 50:50 chance f being passed n during reprductin.Gene drives tip the evlutinary scales.One area f research fcuses n genes that can cpy themselves t the secnd,ensuring that they will be passed n by all ffspring(后代).Like many technlgies,hwever,gene drives may lead t bad utcmes as well as gd.They culd in thery make species extinct.One cncern is practical: remving a species frm the fd chain culd have unintended cnsequences,particularly if gene drives can mve t a clsely related species.Anther relates t gvernance.Genetically mdified crps can be kept relatively cntained: animals carrying gene drives culd be mbile and respect n brders.One cuntry’s decisin t use gene drives will have cnsequences fr its neighburs.A third wrry cncerns imprper uses f the technlgy,and nt nly by states.A msquit,engineered t inject txins(毒素) culd be used as a weapn.But putting the brakes n research may pay real csts: nt just the annual rising number f deaths taken by malaria and ther killer befre an answer is fund,but als slwer prgress twards making gene drives safer.

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
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。
Often,when yu buy a cmputer,the laptp bag is verlked,but it is ne f the mst valuable things a cmputer wner can have.Mst chse a laptp simply because they want t be able t transprt it frm place t place. 36 The bag nt nly prtects the cmputer frm dirt r damage,it can als be used t carry ther laptp parts,such as spare batteries,a cmputer muse and any prtable equipment yu may have.
The first thing t cnsider when chsing the best laptp bag is what style f bag yu may want.The mst cmmn styles are the briefcase(公文包)and the backpack. 37 The briefcase gives a sense f prfessinalism while the backpack may be easier t carry much f the time.
A laptp bag shuld have bth a cmputer sleeve alng with several separate sectins.The sleeve helps keep the laptp frm mving t much in the bag.The sectins are gd fr strage f dcuments and ther things yu may want t transprt alng with the cmputer; 38
Anther thing when yu buy a laptp bag is making sure it is strngly sewed and has a slid bttm.These tw things will make yur bag much strnger,especially if it is the backpack style. 39 In sme cases,it may just be a few mnths befre a cmputer wner needs a new ne.Hwever if made prperly,laptp bags can last five r mre years.
40 Buying a clth bag may be a cheaper ptin,but leather bags are generally made better and are able t stand up t use much better.Besides,leather ffers a natural barrier t water when the cmputer is transprted thrugh rain r snw.
A.bviusly the frmer is mre imprtant,thugh.
B.Each ne has their wn advantages as laptp bags.
C.Materials als make a difference,especially in the briefcase style.
D.But withut a gd laptp bag that becmes much mre difficult
E.There are lts f chices when it cmes t chsing the best laptp bag.
F.this will prevent them rubbing up against the cmputer and scratching it.
G.Chsing a cheap bag withut these culd greatly reduce the life f the bag.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文,主要讲述了如何选择并购买电脑包。
36.D 空前提到the laptp bag,人们在买电脑的时候,电脑包是被忽略的。有些人选择手提电脑是因为可以随身携带。空后说的是电脑包的优势。所以D项 “But withut a gd laptp bag that becmes much mre difficult”符合上下文。D项的But起到了结构上的作用,将空前空后连接起来。
37.B 空前提到了“the briefcase and the backpack”公文包和双肩包两种电脑包的形式,空后提到了各自的优势,与B项中Each ne相一致,所以B项符合。
38.F 根据“ sleeve helps keep the laptp frm mving...”,并结合空前分号说明此处和空前谈论的是同一个内容,空前提到了分区有利于文件和其他东西的存放,是在讲分区的优势,所以此处也是讲优势,可以帮助避免物品之间的摩擦。这与F项“prevent them rubbing up against the cmputer and scratching it”相一致,故选F项。
39.G 根据“ strnger...”和下文“ a few mnths...”可知,空前提到了两个因素可以使得电脑包更加牢固,空后提到很多情况下,没几个月就要换一个新的。所以此处是讲电脑包的质量问题。如果选择一个没有以上优势的便宜的电脑包,会减少电脑包的使用寿命。这与G项中“ the life f the bag”相一致。
40.C 空后提到了“clth”和“leather”两种材料,所以此处是要讲“material”,这与C项一致。

答案与解析
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了银行卡和数字科技正在慢慢取代现金以及这种趋势对人们生活的影响。
56.are killing 考查主谓一致。 根据语境可知,此处应使用现在进行时,表示现阶段正在发生的动作以及一种趋势;且主语Cards and digital technlgies为复数形式,故填are killing。
57.necessarily 考查副词。nt necessarily为固定词组,表示“不一定,未必”。
58.the 考查定冠词。此处the time特指“需要使用现金交易的时间”,故填the。
59.is predicted 考查语态。此处用一般现在时陈述客观事实,且usage作主语,谓语动词用单数形式,与predict构成被动关系,故填is predicted。
60.faster 考查比较级。and前后连接两个并列成分,由mre cnvenient可知,此处应该也用形容词比较级。
61.handling 考查非谓语动词。此处作介词fr的宾语,故使用动词-ing形式作宾语。
62.banks 考查名词。and前后连接两个并列的成分,bank作名词意为“银行”,为可数名词,由于前面没有出现表单数概念的词来修饰,故用复数形式。
63.t increase 考查非谓语动词。be likely t d sth表示“有可能做某事”,故填t increase。
64.whether 考查连词。引导让步状语从句,表示“无论……还是……”,故填whether。
65.thers 考查代词。根据语境可知,表示“一些人……另一些人……”。
