In a street largely unchanged since it was built in the 1800s, Hbart’s Battery Pint is prbably the last place yu wuld expect t find a farm.
In ne crner f Peter Handy’s backyard is a cntrlled envirnment unit that huses vertical pastures (垂直牧场), the first f its kind in the suthern hemisphere (半球). Mr. Handy is changing the definitin f what it means t be a farmer. “I knw it’s really funny, because when peple say t me, ‘Where’s yur farm?’, I’ll say ‘it’s in Battery Pint’ and they’re like, ‘N, there’s n farms in Battery Pint’,” he said “Peple think the Martians have landed because we’ve gt this massive, big pink light that cmes ut f it frm the bttm but ther than that, they’d have n idea.”
Nt just a backyard prject, Mr. Handy is running a business. “It’s here because I need t be as clse t my custmers, the chefs and restaurants f Hbart,” he said. “I aim t use the least amunt f fd miles as pssible and make this a super-efficient business.”
Using LED lights and hydrpnic nutrients, the farm grws leafy greens, rt vegetables and flwering plants. “I dn’t have t wrry abut flds, wind, wild animals, electric fences, turning the sil ver,” Mr .Handy said. Using 95 percent less water than traditinal farming, the farm ticks the bx envirnmentally. “I mean, this is definitely nt the answer t fd sustainability in the wrld. But it’s definitely a part f it.”
Science writer Julian Cribb believes a wrld fd crisis is cming, due t a cmbinatin f lss f water, lss f tpsil, climate change and veruse f pisns. “We’re ging t need t change the nature f the way we prduce fd and change the human diet at the same time,” he said, “and new urban farming methds wuld see mst f the wrld’s great cities feeding themselves.”
Mr. Cribb said Australia was still quite a way ff frm adpting urban farming. But he believes that it pses a rather unique pprtunity fr Australian farmers t sell their expertise t cities, teaching peple t grw fd in urban envirnments.
4、What might peple think f Mr. Handy’s farm?
A. Scared.B. Impressed.C. Disappinted.D. Cnfused.
5、What des Mr. Handy say abut his farm?

D. It is the slutin t fd sustainability.
6、What’s the purpse f Mr. Gribb’s wrds in paragraph 5?
A. T praise his cntributin t science.
B. T explain hw urban farming wrks.
C. T stress the necessity f urban farming.
D. T present the seriusness f the fd crisis.
7、What’s the passage mainly abut?

B. Technlgy is changing peple’s life.
C. Peter Handy is a successful businessman.
D. Fd prductin is being mved int cities.
N ne can say whether human-like rbts will have a sweet dream, but they will almst certainly need perids f rest that ffer benefits like what sleep prvides t living brains, accrding t new research frm Ls Alams Natinal Labratry (LANL).
“We study spiking neural netwrks (尖峰神经网络), which are systems that learn much as living brains d,” said Yijing Watkins, a cmputer scientist frm LANL. “We trained a neurmrphic (神经形态的) prcessr in a way hw humans and ther bilgical systems learn frm their envirnment during childhd develpment.” Watkins and her research team fund that the netwrk simulatins (模拟) became unstable after cntinuus perids f unattended learning. When they expsed the netwrks t states that are analgus t what living brains experience during sleep, stability was recvered. “It was as thugh we were giving the neural netwrks a gd night’s rest,” said Watkins.
The discvery came abut as the research team wrked t develp neural netwrks that are as clse as hw humans and ther bilgical systems learn t see. The grup initially struggled with stabilizing simulated neural netwrks underging unattended dictinary training, which invlves classifying bjects withut prviding examples t cmpare them t. The researchers expse the netwrks t an artificial simulatin f sleep as nearly a final effrt t stabilize them. They experimented with varius types f nise. The best results came when they used waves f s-called Gaussian nise. These waves can make sure that the neural netwrks keep stable.
The grup’s next gal is t apply their algrithm (算法) t Intel’s Lihi, a prduct which uses spiking neural netwrks t wrk. They hpe allwing Lihi t sleep frm time t time will enable it t stably prcess infrmatin frm a camera in real time. If it can cnfirm the need fr sleep in artificial brains, we can prbably expect the same t be true f human-like rbts and ther intelligent machines that may cme abut in the future.
8、What did Watkins and her research team find?
A. Neural netwrks are far frm stable.
B. Artificial brains may need break as well.
C. Neural netwrks are very sensitive t nise.
D. Human-like rbts need equal rest t humans.
9、What des the underlined wrd “analgus” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Cntrary.B. Beneficial.C. Similar.D. Related.
10、Why will the researchers apply the algrithm t Lihi?
A. T better update Lihi.
B. T enable Lihi t run faster.
C. T further cnfirm their discvery.
D. T make sure Lihi get enugh sleep.
11、In which sectin can we prbably find this article?
A. Mind & Brain.B. Business & Industry.
C. Medicine & Care.D. Cmputer & Science.
Magic is a frm f entertainment that is based n pretending t d things that are impssible. The magician is a specially trained actr. He tries t make the audience believe that he has the pwer t d things which are against the laws f nature.
Magic shws are entertaining as lng as the audience des nt discver hw the tricks are dne. The magician usually depends n his skill with his hands, n his knwledge f psychlgy, and, smetimes, n mechanical devices(机械装置). Since magic perfrmance is meant t trick peple, the use f psychlgy is imprtant. The magician must keep peple frm nticing all the mvements f his hands and frm thinking abut the secret parts f his equipment. He must als lead the audience t draw false cnclusins. The magician's success depends n the fact that many things seen by the eye are nt the things that matter.
Tw basic magic tricks are making bjects seem t appear and making bjects seem t disappear. A cmbinatin f these tw tricks makes fr sme interesting effects. Fr example, the magician puts a small ball under ne f several cups. The ball then seems t jump frm ne cup t anther r t change clur. What actually happens is that the magician, emplying quick hand mvements r a mechanical device, hides ne ball. While ding this he talks t the audience and waves a brightly clured clth with ne hand. The audience is t busy watching the clth and listening t the magician's wrds t ntice that his ther hand is hiding the ball.
Anther favurite trick is t cut r burn smething, and then make it appear whle again. What actually happens is that the magician makes the cut r burned bject disappear by quickly hiding it while the audience watches smething else. Then he “magically” makes it appear whle again by displaying(展示)anther bject that has nt been cut r burned.
12、What is the authr's main purpse in writing the text?
A. T prmte a magic shw.B. T teach peple t be magicians.
C. T explain the art f magic.D. T praise the talents f magicians.
13、Which f the fllwing is imprtant fr a successful magic trick?
A. Mving stage equipment.B. Directing the audience's attentin.
C. Applying high technlgy.D. Keeping the perfrmance in secret.
14、What des the authr fcus n in the last tw paragraphs?
A. Prviding examples.B. Making a summary.
C. Drawing cmparisns.D. Explaining a cncept.
15、What can we infer frm the text?

It was the first week f Lily’s middle schl. The bell’s ringing brught her ut f her daydreaming. She nervusly gathered her bks, preparing t reach anther classrm fr the next new class.

32、答案：①shaped②t meet③whse④cntaining⑤height⑥with⑦entirely⑧was cnstructed⑨valuable/valued⑩and
解析：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍的是程阳风雨桥的相关情况。
①考查非谓语动词。句意：风雨桥是一种有屋顶的桥，桥上有长凳和亭子，形似宫殿。句中谓语是is，空格处用非谓语动词，A wind and rain bridge和shape之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，故填shaped。
②考查不定式。句意：它可以为人们遮风挡雨，让人们见面和休息。allw sb. t d sth.是固定短语，意为“允许某人做某事”，因此空格处用不定式t meet。故填t meet。
③考查定语从句。句意：程阳风雨桥的设计使其成为该类型的杰出典范，它有三层，包含五个亭子，两端有一个平台。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句，先行词The Chengyang Wind and Rain Bridge和design之间是所属关系，因此空格处用表所属的关系代词whse引导定语从句，故填whse。
④考查非谓语动词。句意：程阳风雨桥的设计使其成为该类型的杰出典范，它有三层，包含五个亭子，两端有一个平台。句中谓语是has，空格处用非谓语动词，three flr levels和cntain之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动，故填cntaining。
⑤考查名词。句意：它长60多米，宽3米，高出河约10米。由空前的the和空后的abut 10 meters可知，空格处用名词，表示“高度”，是height，是不可数名词，故填height。
⑥考查介词。句意：上层结构是精心设计的，每个石墩上都有塔楼。be designed with是固定短语，意为“被用……设计”，因此空格处用介词with，故填with。
⑦考查副词。句意：它几乎完全由木头建造，又长又宽的屋顶覆盖着漂亮的材料。空格处用副词entirely修饰动词made，entirely意为“完全”。故填entirely。
⑧考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：这座桥也被称为程阳永济桥，是20世纪初由当地有才能的工人建造的，连接了河对岸的当地村庄。空格处是谓语，由by可知，用被动语态，由in the early 1900s可知，句子描述过去的事情，因此空格处是一般过去时的被动语态，主语The bridge是单数，因此空格处是was cnstructed。故填was cnstructed。
⑨考查形容词。句意：他们用色彩鲜艳、栩栩如生的雕刻和绘画来装饰这座非常珍贵的桥。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词bridge，value的形容词是valuable/valued，意为“珍贵的”，故填valuable/valued。
⑩考查连词。句意：他们用色彩鲜艳、栩栩如生的雕刻和绘画来装饰这座非常珍贵的桥。carvings和paintings之间是并列关系，句子是肯定句，因此空格处用and表并列，故填and。
