My Favourite Books

——Posted by Catherine Chung，a great writer

Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang

This collection contains several math stories.The one I recommend is Division by Zero, about Renee，a brilliant mathematician.To her great despair, she ends up proving that mathematics is inconsistent and is able to prove that any two numbers are equal.A beautiful, thought-provoking(发人深省的) story about belief, understanding, and faith.

The Housekeeper and the Professor by Yōsko Ogawa

It's about a woman who comes to work for a once-great mathematician.Due to a brain injury, he has only 80 minutes of short-term memory available to him before he forgets everything.It is filled with beautiful math, simply and clearly described alongside finely drawn relationships between the characters.

Too Much Happiness by Alice Munro

Kovalevskaya was a 19th-century mathematician at a time when women were not allowed in most of Europe to attend university.She married a man who promised to take her to Germany to study.She made major contributions to the field and became the first woman in Russia to obtain a doctorate in mathematics.

The Ore Miner's Wife by Karl Iagnemma

It is about a miner who thinks he's discovered the proof of the problem：construct a square, equal in area to a given circle.His wife, not knowing what has suddenly taken his attention and his time, fears he is being unfaithful.It's a moving exploration of the joys of entering a problem wholly and the desire and impossibility of truly knowing those we love.

(2022·淮南市高三第一次模拟)

Louise Gluck has been no stranger to awards over her long and storied career since her first publication in 1968. In 1993, she won the Pulitzer Prize for her collection of poems, The Wild Iris. And on Oct 8 (2020) she became the 16th woman to win the Nobel Prize in literature with the Nobel prizes first awarded in 1901.

Gluck was honored “for her unmistakable poetic voice that, with plain and simple beauty, makes individual existence universal”. Often said to be an autobiographical poet, drawing from the inner parts of her life, “Gluck seeks the universal，” Nobel Committee Chair Anders Olsson said in a statement.

Gluck, 77, the author of 12 poetry collections, has been able to turn her life experiences into universal themes covering life, loss, and isolation. Because of this, readers have often found her poetry to be “dark”. However, there is much more than darkness in her voice, as noted by Olsson. “It is candid and also a voice full of humor and biting wit.” he said.

For example, in her poem Snowdrops, she uses the coming of spring after winter to show rebirth of life after death. She leads readers down a depressing path only to reconnect with the light at the near end. At the conclusion of the poem, readers are left to feel the “raw wind of the new world” as they watch a new spring. This is often the case in Gluck's poetry, being able to feel joy even after not having done so for a long time.

When her work Faithful Virtuous Night received a National Book Award for Poetry in 2014, a judge for the award went on to say, the collection comes from “a world where darkness blurs (模糊)ordinarily sharp edges around the oppositions of our lives-loss and renewal, male and female, the living and the dead”．

Talking of prizes, she acknowledged that they can make “existence in the world easier” but did not amount to the immortality (永生) of a true artist. “I want to live after I die, in that ancient way.” she said. “And there's no way of knowing whether that will happen, and there will be no knowing, no matter how many blue ribbons have been used to cover my body.” The remark is in line with Olsson's description of Gluck's poetic voice as “candid and uncompromising” but frequently witty.

语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了第16位获得诺贝尔文学奖的女性Louise Gluck(路易丝·格鲁克)的诗歌特点。

4．What can we learn about Louise Gluck？ A 

A．She is a productive and distinguished poet.

B．She showed indifference to the Nobel award.

C．She had her first publication in her teens.

D．She gets inspiration from universal existence.

解析：细节理解题。由第一段中的“In 1993, she won the Pulitzer Prize for her collection of poems, The Wild Iris. And on Oct 8 (2020) she became the 16th woman to win the Nobel Prize in literature with the Nobel prizes first awarded in 1901.(1993年，她因诗集《野鸢尾》获得普利策奖。2020年10月8日，她成为第16位获得诺贝尔文学奖的女性，诺贝尔文学奖于1901年首次颁发。)”和第三段中的“Gluck, 77, the author of 12 poetry collections, has been able to turn her life experiences into universal themes covering life, loss, and isolation. (77岁的Gluck是12本诗集的作者，她能够将自己的人生经历转化为涵盖生命、失落和孤独的普遍主题。)”可知，普利策奖和诺贝尔文学奖获得者Gluck是12本诗集的作者，说明她是一位多产的杰出诗人。故选A。

5．How do readers feel after reading Snowdrops？ D 

A．Depressed.  B．Confused.

C．Astonished.  D．Refreshed.

解析：推理判断题。由第四段中的“For example, in her poem Snowdrops, she uses the coming of spring after winter to show rebirth of life after death. She leads readers down a depressing path only to reconnect with the light at the near end. At the conclusion of the poem, readers are left to feel the ‘raw wind of the new world’ as they watch a new spring.(例如，在她的诗《雪花》中，她用冬后春天的到来来表现死后生命的重生。她引导读者走上一条令人沮丧的道路，却在接近尽头时与光明重新连接。诗的结尾，让读者在观看新春的同时感受‘新世界的原始风'。)”可知，《雪花》能引导读者在接近尽头时与光明重新连接，读者能感受新春和‘新世界的原始风’，换句话说读者感受到的东西都是积极向上的，因此读完后，读者会感到精神焕发(refreshed)。故选D。

6．According to Gluck, how do awards influence artists？ D 

A．By improving their health and fame.

B．By popularizing their works better.

C．By contributing to their living longer.

D．By allowing them a better living.

解析：细节理解题。由最后一段中的“Talking of prizes, she acknowledged that they can make ‘existence in the world easier’ but did not amount to the immortality (永生) of a true artist.(谈到奖品，她承认奖品可以使‘在世界上活着更容易’，但并不等于一个真正艺术家的永生。)”可知，Gluck认为奖品可以使在世界上活着更容易，换句话说，奖品能让艺术家过上更好的生活。故选D。

7．What is the text mainly about？ D 

A．Gluck's poetry collections.

B．Gluck's journey to success.

C．The glories of Gluck's poetry.

D．The features of Gluck's poetry

解析：主旨大意题。第一段引入“第16位获得诺贝尔文学奖的女性Louise Gluck(路易丝·格鲁克)”，第二、三段讲“Louise Gluck的诗歌特点”，第四、五段举例说明她的诗歌特点，最后一段讲“Louise Gluck对奖品的看法和其他人对她的评价”，因此文章主要讲的是Louise Gluck的诗歌特点。故选D。

语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人类图书馆的特点和好处。

解析：

1．考查语境推断。设空处上文提到，人类图书馆与传统的图书馆有很大不同，空后则说明在这个特别的图书馆你可以做的事情——在借来的“人类书籍”的帮助下，回顾自己的观点。设空处应承上启下，具体说明人类图书馆的特别之处。G项(在这个图书馆中，你可以“借来”人类与你交谈，而不是借书。)符合语境，选项中的“borrow”people与设空处后的borrowed human books相呼应。故选G。

2．考查语境推断。设空处前说明，人类图书馆意在创造对多样性的尊重和理解，空后提到那些永远不会见面也不会交谈的人在这里可以找到交谈的空间。故A项(它为对话创造了一个安全的空间。)承上启下，符合语境。故选A。

3．考查语境推断。空前提到该图书馆每周在当地社区举办活动，“人类书籍”志愿者欢迎公众成员来和他们交谈，因此，设空处应进一步说明他们交谈的内容是什么。故F项(在这里，各种问题被期待、赞赏和回答。)承接上文，符合语境。故选F。

4．考查语境推断。空前介绍龙尼·阿贝热尔是该图书馆的创始人，空后则提到他的想法像畅销书一样迅速传播，his idea应是指代设空处的内容。E项(他只是想让全世界倾听和交谈。)解释了他创办这个图书馆的目的，承上启下，符合语境。故选E。

5．考查语境推断。设空处位于本段段首，应是本段的主题句。设空处后文提到，它们帮助许多困在家中、害怕与陌生人近距离接触的人恢复了他们的关联意识和社区意识。C项(新型冠状病毒肺炎也已引发了许多虚拟活动。)引出下文，符合语境，空后的They指代选项中的virtual events，且COVID-19与空后的“stuck indoors at home, and fearful of being too close to strangers”相呼应。故选C。

Ⅲ.语法填空

Poetry,  1.a　 universal form of literature, plays an important role in ancient China.Poetry probably had its origins in traditional folk music tens of thousands of years ago.In that era, there were no TVs or films, and   2.writing　(write) had not been invented, so people would sit around the fire at night and sing songs  3.to entertain　(entertain) themselves.These songs reflected themes from the people's daily  4.lives　(life), such as hunting animals or sowing crops.Since nothing was set down, over the years different versions of these songs developed, and each area would have its own respective rhythm.In addition to this, people would recite stories of past heroes.

As these stories were often quite long, they often had rhyme and rhythm to help people remember them more  5.easily　(easy)．While in the beginning such songs and stories had a very simple format, over time they became more complicated and  6.prettier　(pretty)．These were not the works of amateurs sitting around a fire,  7.but　 works of true poets who cared about their art and who sometimes made a living from it.

Poetry plays with sounds, words, and grammar,  8.which　 makes poetry difficult to write but very interesting to read.Poetry uses colors, feelings, experiences, and images to paint a picture in your mind.Today, many Chinese people  9.are becoming/have become　(become) more interested in reading poems, no matter  10.in　 what language they are written.Translation is good, but being able to read in the original language is best.

语篇导读：本文主要介绍了诗歌作为一种普遍的文学形式，在中国古代扮演着重要的角色。如今，许多中国人对阅读诗歌越来越感兴趣，无论它们是以哪种语言为载体。

解析：

1．考查冠词。句意：诗歌作为一种普遍的文学形式，在中国古代扮演着重要的角色。form意为“形式”时为可数名词，此处泛指一种普遍的形式，应用不定冠词，且universal的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。

2．考查名词。句意：在那个时代，没有电视或电影，(书写)文字还没有发明，所以人们晚上会围坐在火边唱歌自娱。此处应用名词形式作主语， writing意为“书写；文字”，为不可数名词。故填writing。

3．考查非谓语动词。句意见上一题解析。由句意可知，此处应用不定式作目的状语，表示“自娱自乐”。故填to entertain。

4．考查名词复数。句意：这些歌曲反映了人们日常生活的主题，如打猎或播种庄稼。由people's可知，此处指代不同人的日常生活，应用复数形式。故填lives。

5．考查副词。句意：由于这些故事通常都很长，它们通常有押韵和节奏，以帮助人们更容易记住它们。此处应用副词修饰动词remember。故填easily。

6．考查形容词比较级。句意：起初， 这些歌曲和故事的形式很简单，但随着时间的推移，它们变得更加复杂和精致。由and可知，此处和前面的more complicated为并列关系，应用比较级形式。故填prettier。

7．考查连词。句意：这些作品不是围坐在火堆旁的业余爱好者的作品，而是真正的诗人的作品，他们关心自己的艺术，有时还以此为生。not...but...为固定搭配，意为“不是……而是……”。故填but。

8．考查定语从句。句意：诗歌“玩弄”声音、单词和语法，这使得诗歌写起来很难，但读起来很有趣。分析句子结构可知，设空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词为Poetry plays with sounds, words, and grammar，关系词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which引导。故填which。

9．考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意：如今，许多中国人对阅读诗歌越来越感兴趣，无论它们是用什么语言写的。根据语境并结合时间状语Today可知，该句应用现在进行时，表示目前正在发生的动作；也可用现在完成时，表示过去动作产生的结果，着眼于现在。主语many Chinese people为复数概念，谓语也应用复数形式。故填are becoming/have become。

10．考查介词。句意见上一题解析。由句意可知，此处表示“无论使用什么语言”，应用介词in。“in＋语言”意为“使用……语言”。故填in。
