One of my earliest memories is of getting keen on fishing in a stream near our house, and while I was standing there waiting for the fish to bite, I'd start noticing all the wildlife. I'd rush home and tell my parents all about the animals and birds I' d seen. Later on I learnt some from my uncle and I watched wildlife series on TV. Then I bought my first camera, and a photographer was born!

I'm busy all the time now that I'm better known, and I work spring, summer, autumn, winter, with hardly a break sometimes. I have to get the most out of each day, so l often find myself making notes for articles, or editing images, maybe, while waiting in a hide for a bird to appear. I try to be patient, but luckily there' s usually nobody to hear if I get cross and start

complaining to myself!

I've been working as a wildlife female photographer for ten years now and have a pretty strong reputation, though I say so myself. I use the most advanced cameras and lenses I can get hold of, but that doesn't make me different from any other professional photographer. And I put in lots of hours, but again, that ' s something we all have to do. I think what I' m known for is being able to come up with exceptional images in poor conditions. And wildlife is a popular area at the moment.

My range of clients varies from someone just wanting a picture to hang in their sitting room, to picture libraries and major wildlife charities. I've been fortunate enough to win a couple of international competitions. A while ago I spent ages checking the proofs of a book of what I think are my most beautiful photos- -it's out in the shops now, in fact. Something I haven't done, which would be fun, is to travel round the country showing a selection of my images at local art galleries and libraries. I like the idea of the contact with the public. But who knows what else will occur to me?

24. What first gave the author an interest in wildlife?

A. Her parents' enthusiasm for it.

B. Taking up a particular hobby.

C. Her favourite TV programme.

D. A visit to her uncle 's house

25. What can we infer about the author from the second paragraph?

A. She can use her time effectively.

B. She works during all four seasons.

C. She is patient when she has to wait.

D. She edits her images as soon as possible.

26. Why does the author think she has a good reputation?

A. Because she concentrates on wildlife alone.

B. Because she uses top-of-the-range equipment.

C. Because she works harder than other photographers.

D. Because she produces excellent pictures even in poor weather.

27. What is the author hoping to do in the future?

A. Gain international recognition.

B. Publish a book of her best pictures.

C. Take an exhibition of her photos on tour.

D. Get her photos accepted by picture libraries.

C

In the daily fight against poverty every single euro counts, yet donations are on the decline. How can we show people that even n small donation can have a big impact in a way that is both entertaining and innovative?

A non-profit relief organization Misereor, based in Aachen, Germany makes donating easier than ever before- with the first interactive donation poster that accepts one of the most popular means of payment: the credit card. The group, which relies on donated funds to fight poverty around the world, built its “Social Swipe" idea on the insight that 40% of European payments were made by credit card.

The Social Swipe campaign, created along with Misereor's agency, Kolle Rebbe in Hamburg, Germany, was a series of interactive video posters designed to generate donations of two euros each. As the credit card was swiped(刷卡), it led to an interactive video experience: the card cut a slice of bread from a loaf, illustrating that the money donated was providing a daily meal for a family in Peru.

With this equipment at international airports in Hamburg and Amsterdam, the posters generated 3,000 euros in their first month. Using the connectedness of credit cards to extend the campaign, Misereor attached a small note on donors' statements, encouraging them to turn the one- time gift into a monthly one. Misereor reports that the number of consumers who gave three or more donations jumped by 23% during the campaign,' compared to the same period a year earlier.

"These things are more expensive than a normal donation box," Kolle Rebbe ’s Public Relations Manager Thomas Stritz said. “But in the end it is not only about the money collected directly with this equipment, but also about awareness. Videos are shared, pictures are taken and comments and articles are written."

28. What is the text mainly about?

A. A research on the credit card.

B. A novel way to make donations.

C. A fight against people' s poverty.

D. An introduction to an organization.

29. Which of the following inspires the idea of “Social Swipe"?

A. The preferred way of payment.

B. The decline of donations in Europe.

C. The cooperation with Misereor s agency.

D. The invention of interactive donation poster.

30. What will happen if you use your credit card on donation facilities?

A. Two euros will be donated each time.

B. A series of video posters will be designed.

C. A slice of bread will be offered to the poor.

D. Food will be provided to the homeless in Peru.

31. What is the great significance according to Thomas Stritz?

A. Raising public awareness of donation.

B. Replacing all the normal donation boxes.

C. Encouraging people to use credit cards.

D. Collecting more money with the new device.

D

Brain implants can translate internal speech into external signals, permitting communication from people with paralysis (瘫痪) or other diseases that steal their ability to talk or type. New results from two studies, presented November 13 at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience, “provide additional evidence of the extraordinary potential" that brain implants have for restoring lost communication, says neuroscientist Leigh Hochberg.

Some people who need help communicating can currently use devices that require small movements, such as eye gaze changes. Those tasks aren't possible for everyone. So the new study targeted internal speech, which requires a person to do nothing more than think.

“Implanted in the brain, our device predicts internal speech directly, allowing the patient to just focus on saying a word inside their head," says Sarah Wandelt, a neuroscientist at Caltech. Internal speech “could be much simpler than requiring the patient to spell out words or mouth them." Neural signals associated with words are detected by electrodes (电极) implanted in the brain. The signals can then be translated into text, which can be made audible by computer programs that generate speech.

In the study, Wandelt and fellow workers could accurately predict which of eight words a person who was paralyzed below the neck was thinking. Electrodes picked up nerve cell signals in his posterior parietal cortex, a brain area involved in speech and hand movements. That approach is “really exciting, and enhances the power of bringing together fundamental neuroscience, microengineering and machine learning approaches for the restoration of communication and mobility," says Hochberg.

To be useful, the current techniques will need to get faster and more accurate. It' s also unclear whether the technology will work for other people, perhaps with more profound speech disorders. “These are still early days for the technologies," Hochberg says.

32. What can be learned about the study in the text?

A. It transforms small movements into text.

B. It encourages the patient to mouth words.

C. It helps the disabled to recover their speech.

D. It focuses on translating thoughts into speech.

33. Which can replace the underlined word “audible" in paragraph 3?

A. Touchable.

B. Visible.

C. Hearable.

D. Countable.

34. Which is the right order of the working processing of the new technology?

①Translate into text.

②Pick up nerve cell signals.

③Speak words inside the head.

④Implant electrodes in the brain.

⑤Generate speech via computer programs.

A.④②①③⑤

B.④③②①⑤

C.②④①⑤③

D.②③①⑤④。

35. Which is the most suitable title for the text?

A. A New Way to Cure Paralysis

B. A Breakthrough in Neuroscience

C. Read Words Directly from People's Thoughts

D. Brain Implants Benefit Profound Speech Disorder

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。

Lionel, Fandi and Iskandar often got together to play football. They dreamt of one day growing up to be professional footballers. The empty field beside the block of neighborhood was where they would meet for their football sessions.

One sunny afternoon, they were at the field us usual. They were in the thick of their game when Fandi aimed his foot at the ball and gave a forceful kick. He himself was surprised by his strength. The ball flew past the goalposts breaking into a glass window of the house behind. The boys were too shocked for words. They were half expecting the annoyed home owner, Madam Leong, to storm out through the front door and give them a good tongue criticizing. They knew she was an il-tempered old lady. Actually, she had scolded (贵骂) them several times before for being too noisy.

When no one came out of the house after ten minutes, the boys were quite surprised. They had prepared themselves for a scolding and were ready to compensate (赔偿) Madam Leong for breaking her window. Out of curiosity, Fandi adventured into Madam Leong' s yard. The gate was unlocked and he went in while the other two waited outside. Fandi knocked on the main door. No reply. Looking in through the broken window, Fandi let out a loud scream. Lying on the floor in a pool of blood was the old lady. There was a big cut on her forehead. She must have been cut by pieces of glass, flying across the living room.

In panic, Fandi immediately dialled ‘995’ for an ambulance. As they were unable to enter the house without a key, there was nothing they could do but wait for the ambulance to arrive. Although the ambulance arrived soon, to the boys, the annoying wait seemed like forever. The ambulance attendants forced open the door and rushed to Madam Leong. She was unconscious, but still breathing. One of the ambulance attendants applied pressure on the wound and wrapped it. With its emergency lights flashing, the ambulance rushed off to the nearest hospital.

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。

Three boys decided to stay behind to wait for Madam Leong ' s family to return.

To everyone’s relief, Madam Leong received immediate treatment.

第二节One possible version(仅供参考)

Three boys decided to stay behind to wait for Madam Leong's family to return. At around five, Madam Leong’s son returned from work. He was shocked to find the three boys on the doorstep. To spare him the horror of walking into the living room to find blood dirt on the floor, Fandi immediately explained the whole incident to him. Madam Leong' s son then rushed to the hospital to see if his beloved mother was all right.

To everyone's relief, Madam Leong received immediate treatment. She had lost consciousness when she was cut on her forehead due to extreme shock. The son accepted the heartfelt apologies from the boys. He admitted that he had been angry with them firstly but after he had cooled down, he realized that had the boys been irresponsible after the accident, the consequences would have been disastrous. After that incident, the three decided to play football in their school field instead. They still aimed to become professional footballers who cared for their community at the same time.
