    (2023秋·河南郑州·高三郑州外国语学校校考一模)Have you ever felt like nobody was there? Have you ever felt forgotten in the middle of nowhere? Have you ever felt like you could disappear? Like you could fall, and no one would hear? Well, you’re not alone.
    In a time when it seems like everyone is consumed by social media, the Broadway musical Dear Evan Hansen really hits home on what it’s like to be a millennial or any person struggling to find their way. With its moving story, catchy songs, and talented cast, the musical is sure to earn not only your praise, but steal your heart in the process.
    Coping with severe anxiety, the title character finds it extremely difficult to fit in. His single mother is always working, his only acquaintance at school is a family friend, and the girl he likes doesn’t even know he exists. Every day is a constant struggle, until the unexpected death of a classmate gives him a voice he never knew he had, even if it is all based on a lie.
    On top of the moving story, the music is infectious. When the single “Waving Through a Window” was first released, I played the track for five days straight. Even after seeing the show, I still have the urge to bust out the lyrics to “Words Fail” during my morning commute on the subway. You think I’m exaggerating, but just wait until you hear the soundtrack for the first time. You won’t just tap your foot to one of the melodies during the show; you’ll come out humming three more of them when you leave, guaranteed.
    With so many different themes like depression, anxiety, and loneliness throughout, we can all see a bit of ourselves in one of these characters: the socially awkward teen, the daughter whose parents won’t stop fighting, or the classmate who feels like there’s no other way than just giving up. In between numbers, I could audibly hear the audience choking back sobs. My mom and I bonded with a young man sitting next to us during the intermission as we talked about how we related to Evan, his mother, his classmates, and all that in between. At the heart of it all, this isn’t just a show. It’s a story that needs to be told, because no one deserves to be forgotten. No one deserves to feel like they could disappear. Even when you’re broken on the ground, you will be found.

    (2023春·河南·高三校联考一模)In September 2022, Artemis Technologies company presented a new type of water ferry(渡船). The Artemis E-24 is the world’s first high-speed, electric, zero-emissions ferry. Currently, the only way to get from Belfast, Northern Ireland to Bangor, Wales without gelling on a plane, is to take a bus or train to Dublin. Ireland and to get on a ferry there. However, that could all change with Artemis E-24 to be applied literally.
    The first Artemis E-24 is expected to set sail on a route between Belfast and Bangor as early as 2024. But actually the road to its creation began nearly 20 years ago, in 2005, when Olympic medalist, Dr. Iain Percy, joined the Artemis Racing sailing team. The Artemis ferry used the same hydrofoil(水翼船)technology that the Artemis Racing America’s Cup racing yachts did. It is this technology that can lift the boat out of the water as it picks up speed, much like an airplane’s wings, that make it seem as if it is flying.
    Beyond the coolness factor, the reasons why Artemis E-24 uses the hydrofoil technology are practical. Raising the boat above the water, and reducing drug leads to up to a 85 percent reduction in fuel costs. Likewise, the reduced drag also minimizes the impact that running the ship has on shorelines. Reduced drag means lower waves.
    The environmental benefit of a transportation technology is obvious to all. However, it also has practical benefits. As Dr. Percy told The Irish World, “this ferry will not only be the cheapest, but also the fastest way in water-based cities. It will get commuters(通勤者)to where they are going in 25 minutes. In addition, this new initiative will also bring more than 1, 000 new jobs into the Belfast area over the next few years. ”
    The Artemis Ferry is a proof to the fact that new and creative technologies can make huge impacts, not only for the world and the environment, but for the local economics that produce them.
    5.Why is the route from Belfast to Bangor mentioned in paragraph 1?
    A.To analyse the new ferry.
    B.To make a list of evidence.
    C.To come up with an idea.
    D.To add the background of the topic.
    6.What does the paragraph 2 mainly show?
    A.The shape of the Artemis E-24
    B.The origin of the new invention.
    C.The experiences of an Olympic medalist.
    D.The effect of the hydrofoil technology.
    7.How can we describe the Artemis E-24?
    A.It is light and energy-efficient.
    B.It is cheap and fully automatic.
    C.It is high-speed and cost-effective.
    D.It is oil-burning and multifunctional.
    8.Whal is the best title of the text?
    A.New Flying Ferry Could Revolutionize Water Travel
    B.New Technology Balances Economy and Environment
    C.The Artemis Ferry with Airplane’s Wings Will Set Sail
    D.Hydrofoil Technology Leads to Reduction in Fuel Costs

    (2022·青海西宁·统考三模)Don’t ask astronomers to choose between the old Hubble Space Telescope and the new James Webb Space Telescope. “Comparing Hubble and Webb is like asking if you will love your second child as much as your first one,” said Susan Mullally, a scientist at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore. They are very different but equally loved.
    Webb is expected to detect light from the universe’s first stars, beyond Hubble’s range. This light will show how the original stars looked 13.7 billion years ago. Hubble has stared as far back as 13.4 billion years, discovering the oldest and farthest object ever observed. Astronomers are eager to close the 300 million year gap with Webb and draw ever closer in time to the Big Bang, the moment the universe formed 13.8 billion years ago. “It’s like looking at the picture book of our kids and missing the first two years. We are trying to figure out where they come from,” explained NASA’s chief scientist Thomas Zurbuchen.
    Hubble sees what we see, with a little ultraviolet and infrared thrown in. Webb has infrared vision. That’s why Webb needs to run at -240℃. To stay cold, Webb carries a five-layer shelter to keep it from sunlight. Between each layer of the shelter, whose size is as big as a tennis court, there is a gap so heat can escape out the sides.
    To detect the universe’s first and darkening stars, Webb requires the largest mirror ever made for astronomy. The mirror spans more than 6.5 meters, yet is lighter than Hubble’s, which is 2.4 meters across. The mirror consists of 18 smaller pieces, each of which is the size of a coffee table and coated with very thin gold, an ideal reflector of infrared light.
    Hubble circles 530 kilometers above the earth. Webb is 1.6 million kilometers away at what’s called the second Lagrange point (L2). This is where the gravitational forces of the earth and the sun balance, requiring minimal fuel for a spacecraft to stay there. Webb will constantly face the night side of Earth as the spacecraft and planet run around the sun in unison (同步).
    9.What does Thomas Zurbuchen mean?
    A.Webb will help scientists see the Big Bang. B.He wants to find some of his kids’ pictures.
    C.New space telescopes are better than old ones. D.Webb might detect the light of the first stars.
    10.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
    A.The distance Webb can see. B.The type of shelters Webb has.
    C.The unique mirror Webb carries. D.The position Webb is put in.
    11.Why is Webb put at the second Lagrange point?
    A.It is the coldest area in the universe. B.It is the darkest position above the earth.
    C.It is the farthest place any spaceship can reach. D.It requires the least fuel for Webb to work normally.
    12.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
    A.Differences Between Hubble and Webb B.Problems With Hubble Space Telescope
    C.Advantages of Infrared Space Telescopes D.Rapid Development of Space Telescopes

    (2022秋·甘肃兰州·高三兰州市第二中学校考一模)A method to transform a commonly thrown-away plastic to a resin (树脂) used in 3D printing could allow for making better use of plastic waste. A team of Washington State University researchers developed a simple and efficient way to transform polylactic acid (PLA)(聚乳酸), a bio-based plastic used in products such as filament, plastic silverware and food packaging to a high-quality resin.
    “We found a way to immediately turn this into something that’s stronger and better, and we hope that will provide people the inspiration to upcycle this stuff instead of just throw it away,” said Yu-Chung Chang, a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering and a co-corresponding author on the work. “We made stronger materials just straight out of trash. We believe this could be a great opportunity.”
    Although it’s bio-based, PLA, which is categorized as a number 7 plastic, doesn’t break down easily. It can float in fresh or salt water for a year without degrading (降解). It is also rarely recycled because like many plastics, when it’s melted down and re-formed, it doesn’t perform as well as the original version and becomes less valuable.
    “It’s biodegradable and compostable, but once you look into it, it turns out that it can take up to 100 years for it to rot away in a landfill,” Chang said. “In reality, it still creates a lot of pollution. We want to make sure that when we do start producing PLA on the milliontons scale, we will know how to deal with it.”
    While the researchers focused on PLA for the study, they hope to apply the work to poly-ethylene terephthalate (PET) (涤纶树脂), which is more common than PLA and has a similar chemical structure and presents a bigger waste problem. They have filed a temporary patent and are working to further optimize (优化) the process. The researchers are also looking into other applications for the upcycling method.
    13.What can the method help do according to paragraph 1?
    A.Solve financial crisis. B.Change waste into wealth.
    C.Control plastic production. D.Determine 3D printing skills.
    14.What does Yu-Chung Chang think of the method?
    A.Promising. B.Unrealistic. C.Imaginable. D.Reliable.
    15.Which of the following is a feature of number 7 plastics?
    A.Invaluable to recycle. B.Easy to deal with.
    C.Hard to break down. D.Difficult to sort out.
    16.What is the text mainly about?
    A.Applications for an upcylcing method.
    B.A better method to break down plastic.
    C.3D printing with newly found materials.
    D.A new way to turn plastic into valuable products.

    (2023秋·宁夏吴忠·高三青铜峡市高级中学校考一模)The Tiangong space station, the first space station, is not just for China but for all humanity. The completion of Tiangong, expected by the end of next year, will be yet another milestone for an ambitious space program. The construction of the station is based on the experience gained from its pioneers, Tiangong-l and Tiangong-2. The first module(舱), the Tianhe core module, was launched on 29 April 2021, followed by multiple crewed and uncrewed missions and two more modules to be launched by 2022.
    According to China Manned Space Agency (CMSA), which operates the space station, the purpose and missions of Tiangong space station are listed as: breakthrough in key technologies such as permanent human operations in orbit, long- term autonomous spaceflight of the space station, life support technology; development of technology that can aid future deep space exploration.
    The Tianhe Core Cabin Module (CCM) provides life support and living quarters for three crew members and provides guidance, navigation (导航) for the station. The module also provides the station’s power and life support system. The station is equipped with a small kitchen for food preparation and the first-ever microwave oven in the spaceflight, so that astronauts can always have hot food whenever they need. 120 different types of food, selected based on astronauts’ preference, are stored aboard.
    China’s intention to build its own space station was amplified(增强的) after NASA refused Chines participation in International Space Station in 2011.On 22 February 2017, CMSA and Italian Space Agency (ASD) signed an agreement to cooperate on long-term human spaceflight activities. The agreement holds importance due to Italy’s leading position in the field of human spaceflight with regard to the creation and development of the International Space Station and it shows Italy’s increased expectation in China’s developing space station program. Tiangong is also expected to host experiments from many other countries.

    (2023秋·内蒙古赤峰·高三统考一模)With no special equipment, no fences and no watering, two abandoned agricultural fields in the UK have been rewilded, in large part due to the efforts of jays(松鸦), which actually “engineered” these new woodlands. Researchers now hope that rewilding projects can take a more natural and hands-off approach and that jays can shed some of their bad reputations.
    The two fields, which researchers have called the New Wilderness and the Old Wilderness, had been abandoned in 1996 and 1961 respectively. The former was a bare field, while the latter was grassland—both lay next to ancient woodlands. Researchers had suspected that the fields would gradually return to wilderness, but it was impressive to see just how quickly this happened, and how much of it was owed to birds.
    Using aerial data, the researchers monitored the two sites. After just 24 years, the New Wilderness had grown into a young, healthy wood with 132 live trees per hectare, over half of which (57%) were oaks. Meanwhile, the Old Wilderness resembled a mature woodland after 39 years, with 390 trees per hectare.
    “This native woodland restoration was approaching the structure (but not the species composition) of long-established woodlands within six decades,” the researchers explained in the study.
    How did this happen? Animals-Eurasian jays, thrushes, wood mice, and squirrels played an important role in helping the forests take shape. This handful of species provided much of the natural regeneration needed for the forest to develop. Jays, in particular, seem to have done a lot of heavy lifting. Jays are scatter-hoarders, meaning they like to store food for the winter, which they then subsequently retrieve. Or not. And when they do forget something, a seedling has a chance to grow. These flying ecosystem engineers could be a big help for reforestation.
    21.What does the underlined word “shed” mean in paragraph 1?
    A.bring in B.shake off C.make up D.take pride in
    22.What does the author want to show by providing some data in paragraph 3?
    A.To help the researchers monitor the two sites.
    B.To show the difference between the two sites.
    C.To inform us how big the two sites are.
    D.To show the rapid change of the two sites.
    23.What is the text mainly about?
    A.Jays aid reforestation. B.Jays aid protection of wildlife.
    C.Researchers make home for species. D.Researchers make efforts for woodlands.
    24.In which section of a website can we probably find the text?
    A.Mind & Brain B.Agriculture & Technology
    C.Business & Industry D.Biology & Ecology

    (2023秋·内蒙古赤峰·高三统考一模)Researchers from the RIKEN Guardian Robot Project in Japan have created an android(机器人)child that can convey six basic emotions. The name of the android is Nikola, and the research behind its development tested how well people could identify the six facial expressions of sadness, happiness, fear, anger, surprise, and disgust.
    Inside Nikola’s face are 29 pneumatic actuators(气动阀)that control the movements of artificial muscles. Another six actuators control head and eyeball movements. Pneumatic actuators are controlled by air pressure, which makes the movements silent and smooth. The team placed the actuators based on the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), which has been used extensively to study facial expressions.
    Typically, studies of emotions, particularly how people react to emotions, have a problem. It is difficult to do a properly controlled experiment with live people interacting, but at the same time, looking at photos or videos of people is less natural, and reactions aren’t the same. “The hope is that with androids like Nikola, we can have our cake and eat it too,” says Sato. “We can control every aspect of Nikola’s behavior, and at the same time study live interactions.”
    To achieve this, the team had to first see if Nikola’s facial expressions were understandable. The result showed that a person certified in FACS scoring was able to identify each facial action unit, which meant that Nikola’s facial movements accurately resembled a real human’s. It also demonstrated that everyday people could recognize the six emotions in Nikola’s face. With that said, some emotions like disgust proved more difficult to identify due to Nikola’s silicone skin being less elastic(弹性的)than real human skin. This meant that the android couldn’t form wrinkles very well.
    “Androids that can emotionally communicate with us will be useful in a wide range of real-life situations, such as caring for older people, and can promote human wellbeing,” says Sato.
    25.What do we know about Nikola’s emotional changes?
    A.They take place with strange noises.
    B.They are conducted through air pressure.
    C.They are controlled by 29 pneumatic actuators.
    D.They are limited to head and eyeball movements.
    26.What does Sato mean by saying “we can have our cake and eat it too” in Paragraph 3?
    A.We can celebrate our success by eating cakes.
    B.We can have interactions with Nikola naturally.
    C.We can study Nikola’s photos or videos very easily.
    D.We can do a controlled experiment with live interactions.
    27.What does Nikola need improving according to Paragraph 4?
    A.Its muscles. B.Its actuators.
    C.Its skin material. D.Its scoring system.
    28.What can be the best title for the text?
    A.Will robots ever have emotions
    B.Nikola: a new near-human machine
    C.How can we read robots’ facial expressions
    D.An android kid successfully conveys basic emotions

    (2023春·四川成都·高三成都七中校考一模)It scarcely seems surprising that learning to underline a modal verb, such as “can”, and “may”, does little to help students use them effectively in their own writing. These words are anyway grasped by tiny children without the need to know what they are called. This may tempt the conclusion that the teaching of grammar should be shelved altogether. But there are reasons to reform it rather than throw it away.
    Understanding of language is part of a wider education in what makes human beings human. How concepts are turned into sounds, and how those sounds combine to form commands or questions, are issues that have occupied many language experts. What they reveal about the mind has exercised psychologists and cognitive scientists.
    There are practical reasons to ask children to work hard at grammar, too. One is that a knowledge of it will make learning a foreign language easier. Even if you did know by nature how to make clauses in your native languages as a child — just without instruction — getting to grips with them in German or Russian in later years is simpler if you know how to define and spot them. As it is, many English-speakers come to understand grammar by studying a foreign language, rather than the other way round.
    For grammarians keen on future jobs, the natural-language processing field is booming. After many years of poor results, technological wizards have developed programs for automated translation, speech recognition and other services that are actually usable, if far from perfect. These tools may rely more on knowledge of artificial intelligence than of the subjunctive, but linguistic expertise still matters, and may give beginners an edge over competitors whose best language is Python (一种编程语言).
    Grammar could still be taught better. One small study showed improvement in some students when concepts are linked concretely to writing tasks. A cook does not need to know chemistry to make a delicious soup. But the science of how words combine to make meaning is fascinating and fundamental.
    29.Why do some people consider stopping teaching grammar?
    A.It’s unnecessary for kids to grasp modal verbs.
    B.Teachers’ teaching methods are far from satisfactory.
    C.Drawing lines under words fails to be effective in learning.
    D.Grammar Learning doesn’t bring obvious effect to writing.
    30.When it comes to future jobs, grammarians believe __________.
    A.a good command of Python is enough for programmers
    B.the field of artificial technology still shows great promise
    C.being expert in language means advantages in competition
    D.computer geniuses will invent perfect tools to process language
    31.What is the author’s attitude towards grammar teaching?
    A.Positive. B.Negative. C.Objective. D.Skeptical.
    32.What’s the main idea of this passage?
    A.Grammar teaching shouldn’t be stopped but reformed.
    B.Scientific study of human beings benefits from grammar.
    C.Grammar helps children to learn foreign languages better.
    D.There’s much room for improvement in grammar research.

    (2023·四川德阳·统考一模)Age-related macular degeneration, or AMD, is an eye condition that affects millions of people around the world. In the UK, it is the biggest cause of sight loss. It’s caused by a loss of the nerves at the back of the eye. Even though it affects only a tiny area around the width of a human hair, its impact is life-changing. Patients experience a blurring (模糊) of vision, initially at the center of their gaze, which expands and worsens as time goes on. Recognizing faces or watching television can rapidly become impossible.
    “This is why it’s such a difficult disease to deal with for patients: It affects the best bit first,” explains Lyndon Da Cruz, a surgeon at Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, UK. Because nerve cells don’t regenerate (再生), the body cannot heal the condition itself, however scientists at King’s College London and Moorfields are working on a new technique to implant stem cells into the back of the eye.
    A trial has already been successfully tested on two patients, both of whom went from being unable to read at all even with glasses, to reading 60 to 80 words per minute with normal reading glasses.
    Operating on the eye is always delicate, but the precision involved in inserting the stem cells is right at the edge of the ability of even the most talented surgeons. Therefore the team has been working with the University’s robotics department to create machines that can work with minute accuracy.
    “It’s as if you cut the human hair 10 times and then you need to go with one of those tools in between those layers for two or three minutes stably while the patient is awake. And that’s not something that humans just can do. That’s where robots come in,”says Christos Bergeles, a robotics researcher at King’s.
    Bergeles’ team has created a working model of an operating room equipped with a robotic arm that can translate the movement of a surgeon. For the moment, they operate only on model but one day they hope to be able to be restoring sight one cell at a time.
    33.How does AMD affect people’s health?
    A.It prevents cells from healing.
    B.It can make people go blind.
    C.It causes nerve problems.
    D.It can damage human hair.
    34.What’s the real difficulty in operating on the eye?
    A.The precision needed in the operation. B.Lacking the right stem cells.
    C.The stable movement of the surgeon. D.Cutting hair into very thin layers.
    35.What can we infer about inserting the stem cells?
    A.It is a piece of cake for brilliant surgeons.
    B.It can simply be carried out by a professional robot.
    C.It is almost a mission impossible for any surgeons alone.
    D.It can be done by a robotic arm translating a surgeon’s movement.
    36.What’s the main idea of the text?
    A.A working model will be created to make a surgery.
    B.A trial on two patients has successfully been tested.
    C.The cause of sight loss has been found out to restore it.
    D.Robots and stem cells can be combined to restore eyesight.

    (2022秋·广西桂林·高三校考一模)We can video chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of Everest. But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy. The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐) signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.
    Now, researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. “What we’ve shown is that it’s actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air,” says Fadel Adib, a professor at MJT’s Media Lab, who led the research. The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. It has any number of potential real-world uses, Adib says. It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane’s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.
    Right now the technology is low-resolution (低分辨率). The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet. The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions—high waves, storms, schools of fish. They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction— air to water.
    If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions, expect “texting while diving” to be the latest underwater fashion.
    37.What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1?
    A.The future of video chat underwater and in air.
    B.The difficulty of communication from water to air.
    C.The frustrations of developing underwater devices.
    D.The current situation of communicating with a submarine.
    38.What does the underlined word “feasible” mean?
    A.Convenient. B.Changeable.
    C.Achievable. D.Alternative.
    39.What do we know about TARF?

    21.词义猜测题。根据文章第一段“With no special equipment, no fences and no watering, two abandoned agricultural fields in the UK have been rewilded, in large part due to the efforts of jays(在没有特殊设备、没有围栏、没有浇水的情况下,英国两块废弃的农田已经重新野生化,这在很大程度上要归功于松鸦的努力)”以及下文“some of their bad reputations(一些坏名声)”可知,松鸭本来是有着坏名声的的鸟类,但却帮助两块废弃农田重新野生化,所以是摆脱了坏名声,由此可推知画线词是“摆脱”的意思。故选B项。
    22.推理判断题。根据文章第三段“After just 24 years, the New Wilderness had grown into a young, healthy wood with 132 live trees per hectare, over half of which (57%) were oaks. Meanwhile, the Old Wilderness resembled a mature woodland after 39 years, with 390 trees per hectare.(仅仅24年之后,新荒野就长成了一片年轻、健康的森林,每公顷有132棵活树,其中一半以上(57%)是橡树。与此同时,39年后,旧荒野就像一个成熟的林地,每公顷有390棵树。)”可知,作者进行了数据对比,表示仅24年,新荒野变成了树林,39年后荒野就成了林地,由此可知,作者展示这些数据是为了显示这两个地点的迅速变化。故选D项。
    23.主旨大意题。分析全文内容,再根据文章最后一段“Animals-Eurasian jays, thrushes, wood mice, and squirrels played an important role in helping the forests take shape. This handful of species provided much of the natural regeneration needed for the forest to develop. Jays, in particular, seem to have done a lot of heavy lifting.(欧亚松鸦、画眉、木鼠和松鼠等动物在帮助森林形成方面发挥了重要作用。这些为数不多的物种为森林的发展提供了大量的自然再生。尤其是松鸦,似乎做了很多繁重的搬运工作。)”可知,文章的主要内容讲的是松鸦帮助重新造林。故选A项。
    24.推理判断题。分析全文内容可知,文章内主要谈到了生态中重新造林问题以及松鸦等动物在造林中发挥的重要作用,所以这篇文章很可能来自网站的生物与生态学部分。故选D项。

    25.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Inside Nikola’s face are 29 pneumatic actuators(气动阀)that control the movements of artificial muscles. Another six actuators control head and eyeball movements. Pneumatic actuators are controlled by air pressure, which makes the movements silent and smooth.(在Nikola的脸内部有29个气动阀,控制人造肌肉的运动。另外六个驱动器控制头部和眼球的运动。气动阀由气压控制,使运动安静平稳。)”可知,Nikola的情绪变化是由气动阀来控制的,而气动阀由气压控制,由此可知,Nikola的情绪变化是由气压控制的,故选B。
    26.词句猜测题。根据第三段中“It is difficult to do a properly controlled experiment with live people interacting, but at the same time, looking at photos or videos of people is less natural, and reactions aren’t the same. “The hope is that with androids like Nikola, we can have our cake and eat it too,” says Sato. (要做一个适当控制的实验,让活生生的人互动是很困难的,但同时,观看人们的照片或视频就不那么自然了,反应也不一样。佐藤说:“我们的希望是,有了像Nikola这样的机器人,我们可以have our cake and eat it too。”)”和““We can control every aspect of Nikola’s behavior, and at the same time study live interactions.”(“我们可以控制Nikola行为的方方面面,同时研究现场互动。”)”可知,Nikola让做可控的实验和现场互动成为了可能,由此可知,“we can have our cake and eat it too”意思是我们可以做一个实时交互的对照实验。故选D。
    27.推理判断题。根据第四段中“With that said, some emotions like disgust proved more difficult to identify due to Nikola’s silicone skin being less elastic(弹性的)than real human skin.(尽管如此,由于Nikola硅胶皮肤的弹性不如真人皮肤,像厌恶这样的情绪更难辨别。)”可推知,根据第四段,Nikola需要改善它的皮肤材料,故选C。
    28.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Researchers from the RIKEN Guardian Robot Project in Japan have created an android(机器人)child that can convey six basic emotions. The name of the android is Nikola, and the research behind its development tested how well people could identify the six facial expressions of sadness, happiness, fear, anger, surprise, and disgust.(日本RIKEN卫报机器人项目的研究人员制造了一个能够传达六种基本情绪的机器人儿童。这个机器人的名字叫Nikola,这项研究测试了人们如何识别悲伤、快乐、恐惧、愤怒、惊讶和厌恶的六种面部表情。)”可知,文章主要介绍了日本研究人员制造出一种能表达六种基本情绪的机器人儿童,D项“一个机器人孩子成功地传达了基本的情感”适合做文章标题,故选D。

    【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了语法教学不应该停止,而应该改革。
    29.细节理解题。根据第一段的“It scarcely seems surprising that learning to underline a modal verb, such as “can”, and “may”, does little to help students use them effectively in their own writing. (学习如何区分诸如“can”和“may”等情态动词对学生在自己的写作中有效地使用它们几乎没有帮助,这似乎并不奇怪)”可知,有些人考虑停止教授语法是因为学习语法对写作没有明显的效果,故选D。
    30.细节理解题。根据第四段的“These tools may rely more on knowledge of artificial intelligence than of the subjunctive, but linguistic expertise still matters, and may give beginners an edge over competitors whose best language is Python (一种编程语言).(这些工具可能更多地依赖于人工智能的知识,而不是虚拟语言的知识,但语言专业知识仍然很重要,可能会让语言初学者比那些精通编程语言的竞争对手更有优势)”可知,当谈到未来的工作时,语法学家们相信精通语言意味着在竞争中占有优势,故选C。
    31.推理判断题。根据根据第一段的“But there are reasons to reform it rather than throw it away.(但有理由对其进行改革,而不是将其丢弃)”和最后一段“Grammar could still be taught better. One small study showed improvement in some students when concepts are linked concretely to writing tasks. A cook does not need to know chemistry to make a delicious soup. But the science of how words combine to make meaning is fascinating and fundamental.(语法仍然可以教得更好。一项小型研究表明,当概念与写作任务具体联系起来时,一些学生会有所进步。厨师不需要知道化学才能做出美味的汤。但是,单词如何组合产生意义的科学是迷人的,也是基础性的。)”推知,作者认为语法教学有一定的弊端,但不应完全抛弃,应进行改革。由此推知,作者对语法教学持客观态度。故选C。
    32.主旨大意题。通读全文,特别是根据第一段的“This may tempt the conclusion that the teaching of grammar should be shelved altogether. But there are reasons to reform it rather than throw it away.(这可能会得出这样的结论:语法教学应该完全搁置起来。但有理由对其进行改革,而不是将其丢弃)”可知,文章主要介绍的是语法教学不应该停止,而应该改革,故选A。

    37.主旨大意题。根据第一段第二、三句“But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy.The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists (但与潜艇或潜水员沟通并不是那么容易。长期以来,缺乏在水下和空中设备之间共享数据的实用方法一直是科学家们的一大难题。)”可知,从水里向空中传递信息,进行交流是很困难的,困扰着科学家们,故第一段主要介绍从水中向空气中传递信息的困难。故选B项。
    38.词句猜测题。根据第二段第一句“Now,researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. (现在,麻省理工学院的研究人员开发了一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法)”可知,一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法已经被开发,因此海底与外界的沟通实际上可行了,所以feasible的意思是“可行的、办得到的”,与Achievable意思相近。故选C项。
    39.细节理解题。根据第二段“The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. (可知,麻省理工学院的研究人员设计了一个系统,该系统使用水下机器向地面发送声纳信号,使震动对应于数据l和0。 然后,表面接收器读取并解码这些微小的振动。研究人员将系统称为TARF。)”可知,TARF系统可以从水下发送信号、接收和读取水下发送来的信号。故选D项。
    40.主旨大意题。根据第一段“The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐) signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air. (长期以来,缺乏在水下和空中设备之间共享数据的实用方法一直是科学家们的一大难题。这一困难源于无线电信号在空气中运行良好,但在水中却很差。水下传感器使用的声纳信号在水面折射,而不是到达空气。)”,以及第二段第一句“Now,researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. (现在,麻省理工学院的研究人员开发了一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法)”可知,本文介绍的是水下与陆地上的通信在以前是无法实现的,但随着科技的进步,这一通讯逐渐能够变为现实。为突出本文介绍的TARF系统的潜在功能,使用C选项更合适,更能吸引读者的阅读兴趣。故选C项。B选项中“Full Air-to-water Communication”空中到水下的全面接连,在文中无法提现,Full一词夸大了介绍的内容。故选C。
