In preparation for each fall's 50th reunion,members of the milestone class are asked to recall campus memories for an annual Memory Book. Here's small part of selections of some memories from the Class of 1969. Phyllis Jo Baunach “...I cannot forget the endless hours of studying,researching,and learning in the middle of the musty books in the stacks.We did everything by hand!But the joys of ideas coming to life and understanding thorny concepts are priceless.Additionally,I cannot forget the joyful hours of CoKast rehearsals for studentwrittenanddirected plays,and the thrill of audience's responses to our efforts.Nor will I ever forget taking voice lessons at the Eastman School of Music.This course gave me confidence to try new musical approaches and to think on my feet.” Paul Boehm “...many sweet and lasting memories—five feet of deep snow,getting stranded on the thruway,music at Hylie Morris' Alley,and,of course,I met my wife,Ellen Blazer Boehm from the Class of 1972,when she was a freshman and I was a senior.As a fiveyear chemical engineering major,I had one elective to spare,and Ellen said, ‘How about oceanography?’ So,I enrolled in oceanography with Dr.Taro Takahashi(the famous climate scientist),which awakened my environmental juices,and changed my professional direction.” Farel Vella MeClure “...I truly loved my four undergraduate years at the University of Rochester.In fact,I loved it so much that I stayed an extra year to get a master's degree!I was very fortunate to have been totally immersed in student life on campus.My memories include campaigning and winning a seat on the student government during my freshman year.Other memories include the Susan B.Anthony banquet,and sleeping in the comfy chairs in the library.I was also privileged to be selected as a student representative on the design team for the new Wilson Commons.I.M.Pei,the famous architect who designed the Louvre Pyramid,was the architect for Wilson Commons.We even visited his offices in New York to see the ‘master’ at work.” [语篇解读] 本文主要介绍了三位来自里程碑式的班级的成员对自己最喜欢的校园记忆 的回忆。 1.According to the passage,Paul Boehm________. A.married Ellen Blazer in 1972 B.disliked his major at university C.became a famous climate scientist later D.discovered his interest in environmental science 解析:细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词 Paul Boehm 可将答案定位至 Paul Boehm 部分 的内容。根据该部分中的“So,I enrolled in oceanography with Dr.Taro Takahashi(the famous climate scientist),which awakened my environmental juices,and changed my professional direction.”可知,保罗·贝姆发现了他对海洋科学的兴趣。故选 D 项。 答案:D 2.What can we learn about Farel Vella McClure? A.She was a worldfamous designer. B.She was active in school activities. C.She had a hard time getting her master's. D.She once met I.M.Pei at the Louvre Pyramid. 解析:细节理解题。根据最后一部分中的“My memories include campaigning and winning a seat on the student government during my freshman year.Other memories include the Susan B.Anthony banquet...”可知,法雷尔·韦拉·麦克卢尔在学校活动中很积极。故选 B 项。 答案:B 3.The three people all talked about ________.

Nakashima had a clear goal.He intended each piece of furniture he made to be as perfect as possible.Even making a box was an act of creation,because it produced an object that had never existed before.Initially Nakashima used local wood,sometimes from his own property.Later,he traveled to seek out English oak,Persian walnut, African zebrawood and Indian teak.He especially liked to find giant roots that had been dug out of the ground after a tree was cut down.Nakashima felt that making this wood into furniture was a way of allowing the tree to live again. Most furniture makers prefer perfect boards,but Nakashima took pleasure in using wood with interesting knots(节疤)and cracks.These irregularities gave the wood personality and showed that those trees had lived a happy life. He never failed to create an object that was both useful and beautiful.One early piece Nakashima designed was a threelegged chair for his small daughter,Mira, to use when she sat at the table for meals.The Mira Chair became so popular that Nakashima later made both low and high versions.Another famous piece,the Conoid Chair, has two legs supported by bladelike feet.Always,Nakashima's designs were precise and graceful,marked by the simplicity that revealed his love for the wood. As the years passed,Nakashima's reputation grew and his works received many awards.His children Mira and Kevin,now adults,joined the team of craftsmen in their father's studio. Nakashima's dream of integrating work and family had come true.

One project in Britain,however,is already testing this superfast technology on an unlikely group of the Internet users—cows.The project was developed by Cisco Systems,an American technology company.It also receives money from the British government.Cisco says the program seeks to explore the future of 5G connectivity in rural areas around the world. Testing areas were set up on farms in three rural areas in England.The cows are equipped with 5Gconnected devices that link up to a robotic milking system,which uses sensors and machine learning to fully automate the process.System designers say technology takes over after a cow feels ready to be milked and walks toward an automatic gate.The device is designed to recognize each individual cow.It then positions equipment to the right body position for milking.During the process,machines release food for the cow as a reward. Other 5G technology tools include automated brushes that start when the cow rubs against them.Sensors also control the amount of light in the cows' living areas depending on the weather.And an automatic feeding system makes sure the animals always get enough food to eat. Duncan Forbes,head of the project,told Reuters that the project shows the farm's cow operation can be greatly improved with 5G technology and that the experiment provides strong evidence that 5G technology can be widely used in the future,not just on farms in Britain,but in rural communities across the world. [语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了 5G 技术的特点及其在英国部分农场中的测试使 用。 8.What is the purpose of Cisco Systems' program? A.To win financial support from British government. B.To test the effects of 5G technology on animals. C.To promote its technological development in Britain. D.To expand the future use of 5G in rural communities. 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Cisco says the program seeks to explore the future of 5G connectivity in rural areas around the world.”可知,该项目设法 探索全世界农村地区 5G 连接的未来。故选 D 项。 答案:D 9.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A.The project. B.The company. C.The technology. D.The group. 解析:词义猜测题。根据上文“One project in Britain...The project was developed by Cisco Systems,an American technology company.”及画线词所在句可知,这个项目由 一家美国公司研发,在英国进行实验,所以英国政府投资的应该是这个项目,而不是这家公 司。故选 A 项。 答案:A 10.What can we learn about 5G according to the text? A.It is no better than 4G in terms of speed. B.It is already widely available in the world. C.It enables cows to control their own milking. D.It is based on sensors and machine learning. 解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“System designers say technology takes over after a cow feels ready to be milked and walks toward an automatic gate.The device is designed to recognize each individual cow.It then positions equipment to the right body position for milking.”可知,5G 技术使奶牛可以自己控制挤奶。故选 C 项。 答案:C 11.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A.Entertainment. B.Lifestyle. C.Education. D.Technology. 解析:推理判断题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了 5G 技术的特点及其在英国部分农场中的 测试使用。由此可知,本文应出自报纸的科技板块。 答案:D 难句分析:Duncan Forbes,head of the project,told Reuters that the project shows the farm's cow operation can be greatly improved with 5G technology and that the experiment provides strong evidence that 5G technology can be widely used in the future,not just on farms in Britain,but in rural communities across the world.(Para.6) 分析:此句中含有四个从句。told 后跟两个 that 引导的宾语从句,连接词为 and;shows 后面是省略了 that 的宾语从句;evidence 后为 that 引导的同位语从句。 译文:该项目负责人邓肯·福布斯对路透社称,该项目显示,用 5G 技术可以大大改善农 场的奶牛作业,而且该实验(通过)提供强有力的证据证明了 5G 技术未来不仅可以在英国的农 场,甚至可以在世界各地的农村社区得到广泛应用。 D (2020·湖北宜昌高三 4 月调研)Life beneath the sea surface can be lovely and lively.But many organisms there produce poisonous chemicals to hunt.Divers are now collecting such poisons as drugs for human medicine. Sharks aren't the scariest things in the ocean for scientists who dive to work.Powerful currents can be just deadly.But the scientists who work underwater train to deal with these dangers.The rewards of the research and underwater adventures are greater than the risks. The sea may seem like a strange place to look for new drugs.But organisms in the ocean have had to adapt to the tough environment.The chemicals they make for survival might help people,too.More than 50 years ago,scientists discovered a new anticancer drug in a sea sponge.Since then,researchers have been searching the seas for more of such useful natural products. With the help of underwater robots and small submarines,scientists are searching the seas—from shallow water to the great deep ocean. Bacteria living in the Arctic cold water break down their food using different ways from organisms on land.This process of turning food into energy for growth, activities and reproduction is called metabolism(新陈代谢).These pathways also produce chemicals called “secondary metabolites.”One day they also might help people. During a fouryear project called PharmaSea , scientists made thousands of extracts(提取物)from those seafloor samples.In about a dozen of them,researchers found mixtures that can kill bacteria that some of today's antibiotics( 抗 生 素)cannot.Three other newfound chemicals reduce epileptic seizures(“electrical storms” in the brain)in mice.Yet another compound may reduce the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. [语篇解读] 本文介绍的是科学家目前正在寻找海洋生物中可用于治疗人类疾病的化学 物质。 12.Why do sea organisms produce chemicals? A.To make themselves noticeable in the sea. B.To benefit other creatures. C.To change their environment. D.To struggle for survival. 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The chemicals they make for survival might help people,too.”可知,海洋生物产生化学物质是为了生存。 答案:D 13.In what way do the Arctic bacteria differ from organisms on land according to the text? A.The medicinal value. B.The way of hunting. C.The way of breaking down food. D.The importance to humans. 解析:细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Bacteria living in the Arctic cold water break down their food using different ways from organisms on land.”可知,生活在北极寒 冷海水中的细菌分解食物的方式与陆地上的生物不同。 答案:C 14.What is special about the mixtures from seafloor samples? A.They have the same effects as today's medicine. B.They have unique functions. C.They can treat most diseases. D.They can kill all bacteria. 解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“researchers found mixtures that can kill bacteria that some of today's antibiotics cannot”可知,研究人员在海底样本的提取 物中发现了能杀死细菌的混合物,而现在的一些抗生素无法做到这一点。由此可知,海底样 本的混合物具有独特的杀菌功能。故选 B 项。 答案:B 15.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Diving for New Medicine B.Threats from the Ocean C.Future Sources of Bacteria D.Danger of Diving into the Sea 解析:标题归纳题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中的“Divers are now collecting such poisons as drugs for human medicine.”可知,本文主要介绍了科学家目前正在海洋中寻 找可以作为人类药物的化学物质。由此可知,A 项(潜水寻找新药)适合作本文的标题。 答案:A Ⅱ.阅读七选五 (2020·聊城二模)Youngsters usually benefit from having a relationship with someone older and wiser to mentor(指导)them.The mentor might be a teacher,family member or more experienced peer.However,not everyone is suitable to be an influential, positive role model. __1__Here are some common characteristics of good role models.
