“This cllectin f nine shrt stries prbes int many f the same themes in Lisa Tadde’s belved ‘Three Wmen’, but discusses them in a sharper, mre disagreeable way. She ruthlessly explres jealusy relatinships between wmen, aging, revenge and, f curse, desire. Tadde never lets yu cme up fr air—making yu laugh while simultaneusly hrrifying yu all when yu least expect it.”

Traffic jam is a prblem fr cities arund the wrld, with sme lking t electric scters(踏板车) t ease the prblem, and thers t AI-enabled traffic lights. But ne cmpany believes the slutin is t build a netwrk f driverless high-speed pds(吊舱) that ride arund cities suspended(悬挂) frm a steel track.
In June, Belarus-based uSky Transprt pened a 400-meter test line in Sharjah(沙加). Frm the utside, the electrically pwered pds are white while the inside is designed t feel like a first-class airline suite, including md lighting, music and flrt-ceiling windws. With tw padded armchairs and tw fldable seats, the vehicle being tested can carry up t fur passengers. A cmplete city-wide netwrk culd supprt 10, 000 passengers per hur, uSky says, with vehicles at present able t travel up t 150 kilmeters per hur.
The cmpany says its aim is t free up rads and grund spaces that culd be used fr greenery, walkways and public leisure spaces. "The grund space is cmpletely ver-saturated, and peple are tired f traffic jams. Peple are tired f emissins," says Oleg Zaretskiy, uSky Transprt's CEO.
Accrding t uSky, while ne kilmeter f subway can cst up t $150 millin t cnstruct, this system csts arund $10 millin. And by using less structural materials, it reduces carbn emissins. The cmpany has als develped a similar technlgy t transprt gds cntainers, carrying up t 48 tns at a tp speed f 90 kilmeters per hur.
Althugh she cautins that it wuld require careful planning t avid traffi jam in a busy city-wide netwrk, Haag believes it culd still be a widely adpted slutin if the prmises f imprved mbility and sustainability(持续性) are kept.
Zaretskiy says uSky is als lking beynd Sharjah. "We can see that the mst prmising areas fr us are in the Middle East and Asia—places where there is natural grwth f ppulatin, such as India and Pakistan," he says. Haag adds that pds are mre suited t cuntries where public transprtatin is under-develped and there is increasing demand fr mbility slutins. The cmpany hpes t finalize its first cmmercial cntract(商业合同) by the end f the year in Sharjah, Zaretskiy adds, meaning uSky pds culd be running prperly by 2024.
4.What's the cmpany's gal accrding t Oleg Zaretskiy?
A. T slve the prblem f traffic jam cmpletely.
B. T free up mre grund space fr ther uses.
C. T cmpete with airplane cmpanies.

Gerge Headley wuld have been a dentist in the USA rather than ne f the greatest cricketers (板球运动员) if he had gt his papers frm Panama n time. The Indian legend was brn in Clón, Panama and a perid f unemplyment in Jamaica caused him t begin the prcess f seeking a career elsewhere.
The delay, hwever, gave Headley time t make his first-class debut (首次亮相) fr Jamaica against the visiting Lrd Tennysn’s XI frm England. These were his scres in the three first-class games in the series: 16, 40, and 71. The rest, as they say, is histry. Yet, cnsider what might have ccurred if his dcuments had arrived n time and he had migrated t America. There wuld have been a missing chapter in cricket.
Headley’s ta le brings t the fre the rle that happenstance (偶然情况) plays in life. In the sng A Different Cmer, Gerge Michael lamented (哀叹) that a rmantic unin went wrng and suggested that it might have been better if circumstances had wrked t prevent their first meeting: “Take me back in time; maybe I can frget. Turn a different crner and we never wuld have met.”
Our lives are the result f much planning and deliberate actin. But they are the result f chance as well. “The harder I practice, the luckier I get” is a qute nrmally used by sprtsmen t discunt the ccurrence r cnsequence f luck. Athletes like t think that whatever success they’ve had is nly dwn t them. T admit therwise is t devalue the skills and effrts.
The changes in luck are a large part f why we watch sprts. It fsters uncertainty, which, in turn. enhances interest in the prcess and the result. On any given day, the underdg can be at the champin. Whenever that ccurs, luck is likely t have played sme significant part, and sprt is better fr it.
8.What decisin did Gerge Headley make befre getting his papers?
A. T cmplete his fficial dcuments in Panama.
B. T sharpen his cricket skills in Jamaica.
C. T get a degree in medicine in the USA.
D. T wrk as a dentist in the USA.
9.What can we say abut the delay f Headley’s papers?
A. It affected his debut perfrmance.B. It became a turning pint in his life.
C. It benefited the England cricket team.D. It led t a missing chapter in cricket.
10.Why did the authr mentin the sng A Different Crner?
A. T stress the imprtance f chance.
B. T explain the necessity f planning ahead.
C. T shw the significance f the first impressins.
D. T illustrate a lve-hate relatinship with friends.
11.What des Gerge Headley’s career stry mainly tell us?
A. Practice makes perfect.
B. Little peple can make a big difference.
C. Effrts and chances are equally imprtant.
D. Nthing is impssible t a willing heart.
“Ging wireless is the future fr just abut everything!” That is a qute frm scientist Sreekanth Chalasani, and we can't help but agree. Realizing this, a team f scientists has made a breakthrugh tward wirelessly cntrlling human cells using sund, in a technique called “sngenetics(声遗传学)”.This cncept may seem strange but let us explain.
Basically,the term “sngenetics” means using ultrasund(超声波)t change the behavir f cells in a nn-invasive manner. “We already knw that ultrasund is safe, and that it can g thrugh bne, muscle and ther tissues, making it the ultimate tl fr cntrlling cells deep in the bdy,” says Chalasani.
Lw-frequency ultrasund waves can target a particular prtein that is sensitive t the signal. This research, published in Nature Cmmunicatins, fcused n TRPA1. When this prtein is stimulated thrugh the ultrasund waves, it als stimulates the cells which carry it. What type f cell is being stimulated depends n the utcme. Fr example, a muscle cell may cntract with stimulatin, r a neurn (神经元)in the brain will fire. In this experiment, scientists genetically marked cells with an increased cncentratin f TRPA1, making them the key targets f the ultrasund waves.
Currently, treating cnditins like Parkinsn's disease requires scientists t implant electrdes(电极)in the brain which stimulate certain disrdered cells. Researchers hpe that sngenetics can ne day replace these invasive treatments.
In the future, the team wants t adjust the placement and amunt f TRPAI arund the bdy using the gene treatment. Gene delivery techniques have already been shwn t be successful in humans, such as in treating blindness. Therefre, it's just a case f adjusting this thery t a different sund-based setting.
“Gene delivery techniques already exist fr getting a new gene---such as TRPA1---int the human heart,” Chalasani says. “If we can then use an external ultrasund device t activate thse cells, that culd really change pacemakers.” There is still a while t g befre this treatment can becme a reality. The future fr sngenetics, thugh, lks bright.
12.What's wrking principle fr sngenetics?
A.Using medicine interventinal therapies.
B. Changing cells' shape with new equipment.
C.Cntrlling cells in a nn-invasive manner.
D. Using a kind f unique medical cmpsitin.
13.What did the scientists d in the experiment?
A.Change the cncentratin f the prtein.
B.Find target cells fr treatment precisely.
C.Analyze the prtein sensitive t the sign.
D.Chse the type f cell t be stimulated.
14.What can we learn abut sngenetics frm paragraphs 4 and 5?
A. It can be applied t ther fields besides medicine.
B. It may replace sme traditinal medical therapies.
C. It will ttally transfrm gene delivery techniques.
D. It has succeeded in curing diseases like blindness.
15.What's the best title fr the text?
A.Can cells be cntrlled by sund?
B.Hw is sngenetics clinically used?
C. Are gene delivery techniques available?
D.What are applicatins f sngenetics?

(“我练得越努力,我就越幸运”这句话通常被运动员用来贬低运气的发生或结果。运动员喜欢认为,他们取得的任何成功都只取决于他们自己。承认事实并非如此就是贬低了他们的技能和努力)”和最后一段“The changes in luck are a large part f why we watch sprts. It fsters uncertainty, which, in turn. enhances interest in the prcess and the result. On any given day, the underdg can be at the champin. Whenever that ccurs, luck is likely t have played sme significant part, and sprt is better fr it. (运气的变化是我们观看体育比赛的很大一部分原因。它助长了不确定性,而不确定性又反过来。增强对过程和结果的兴趣。在任何一天,失败者都可能成为冠军。无论何时发生这种情况,运气都可能发挥了重要作用,而体育运动则更好)”可推知,乔治·黑德利的职业生涯主要告诉我们机会和努力同等重要。故选C。
12.答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段Basically,the term "sngenetics" means using ultrasund(超声波)t change the behavir f cells in a nn-invasive manner.(基本上,"超声遗传学"一词意味着使用超声波以非侵入性的方式改变细胞的行为。)可知,生遗传学的工作原理是通过非入侵方式来控制细胞。故选C。
13.答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段Lw--frequency ultrasund waves can target a particular prtein that is sensitive t the signal.This research,published in Nature Cmmunicatins,fcused n TRPA1.When this prtein is stimulated thrugh the ultrasund waves,it als stimulates the cells which carry it.(低频超声波可以瞄准对信号敏感的特定蛋白质。这项研究发表在《自然通讯》上,重点关注TRPA1。当这种蛋白质受到超声波的刺激时,它也会刺激携带它的细胞。哪种类型的细胞受到刺激取决于结果。)及In this experiment,scientists genetically marked cells with an increased cncentratin f TRPA1,making them the key targets f the ultrasund waves.(在这个实验中,科学家们用基因标记了细胞中TRPA1浓度的增加,使它们成为超声波的关键目标。)可知,科学家通过干预细胞上的蛋白质TRPA1,使它们成为低频超声波的瞄准对象,从而刺激携带了这种蛋白质的细胞,从而达到治疗的目的,所以科学家在实验中做的是精确地找到治疗的目标细胞。故选B。
14.答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段Currently,treating cnditins like Parkinsn's disease requires scientists t implant electrdes (电极) in the brain which stimulate certain disrdered cells.Researchers hpe that sngenetics can ne day replace these invasive treatments.(目前,治疗帕金森氏症等疾病需要科学家在大脑中植入电极来刺激某些紊乱的细胞。研究人员希望超声遗传学有朝一日能取代这些侵入性治疗。)及第五段In the future,the team wants t adjust the placement and amunt f TRPAI arund the bdy using the gene treatment.Gene delivery techniques have already been shwn t be successful in humans,such as in treating blindness.Therefre,it's just a case f adjusting this thery t a different sund-based setting.(未来,该团队希望通过基因治疗来调整TRPAI在身体周围的位置和数量。基因传递技术已经在人类身上被证明是成功的,比如在治疗失明方面。因此,这只是将这一理论调整到另一个不同的基于声音环境的案例。)可知,基因传递技术已经被证明是成功的,因而利用超声遗传学取代一些传统的侵入性治疗是有可能的。B.It may replace sme traditinal medical therapies.(它可能会取代一些传统的医学疗法。)符合文意,故选B。
15.答案:A
解析:标题归纳题。根据第一段Realizing this,a team f scientists has made a breakthrugh tward wirelessly cntrlling human cells using sund,in a technique called "sngenetics(声遗传学)."

32.答案:①beautifully②pssessing③were brught④why⑤by⑥t create⑦appearance⑧have suffered⑨the⑩that/which
解析:①考查副词。句意:油纸伞由竹制框架和精美的纸面组成,长期以来一直被视为中国传统文化工艺和诗性美的象征。修饰形容词painted,用副词形式。故填beautifully。
②考查非谓语动词。句意:它们不仅是遮风挡雨的工具,而且是具有丰富文化意义和美学价值的艺术品。分析句子可知,空处作后置定语修饰名词短语wrks f art,且与其逻辑主语wrks f art为主动关系,所以应填现在分词pssessing表主动,表示“拥有,具有”。故填pssessing。
③考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:后来,在唐朝(618—907年),它们被带到海外的日本和古代朝鲜,这就是为什么它们被称为“唐伞”。根据时间状语during the Tang Dynasty,空处谓语动词应填一般过去时,且与主语they之间为被动关系,要与主语they保持主谓一致,用复数。故填were brught。
④考查名词性从句。句意:后来,在唐朝(618-07年),它们被带到海外的日本和古代朝鲜,这就是为什么它们被称为“唐伞”。分析句子可知,空处引导一个表语从句作系动词is的表语,且从句缺状语,应用连接副词引导,又根据句意可知,所以填连接副词why,表示“为什么”,符合语境。故填why。
⑤考查介词。句意:手工制作一把传统的中国油纸伞需要花费相当多的时间和精力。by hand为固定搭配,表示“手工地”。故填by。
⑥考查非谓语动词。句意:例如,在四川泸州汾水镇,工匠们必须完成90多个步骤,使用100多种不同的工具才能制作出一把手工油纸伞。此处涉及固定句型use sth. t d,表示“用某物做某事”,用不定式作目的状语。故填t create。
⑦考查名词。句意:自从现代机械伞出现以来,传统油纸伞的销量一直在下降,而工匠的数量也在减少。the +名词+f。故填appearance。
⑧考查时态。句意:自从现代机械伞出现以来,传统油纸伞的销量一直在下降,而工匠的数量也在减少。根据时间状语Since the appearance f mdern mechanical umbrellas可知,空处谓语动词应用现在完成时,表示过去的动作或状态持续到现在,对现在造成的影响。且要与主语traditinal il-paper umbrellas保持主谓一致,用复数,即have suffered。故填have suffered。
⑨考查冠词。句意:自从现代机械伞出现以来,传统油纸伞的销量一直在下降,而工匠的数量也在减少。空处涉及固定结构the number f,表示“……的数量”。故填the。
⑩考查定语从句。句意:由于受到了积极的宣传,这些伟大的作品出现在许多时装表演和媒体出版物中。分析句子可知,空处引导限制性定语从句,代替先行词publicity,指物,并在从句中作received的宾语,所以填关系代词that或者which。故填that/which。
