What are martial (武术的)arts and swordsmen like? To most Chinese, the answer to this question can be found in the works of the late novelist Jin Yong. Jin, whose real name was Zha Liangyong, died on Tuesday evening inHong Kong, aged 94. The news soon spread all over Chinese mainland, where he inspired a generation, guiding them into the world of Wuxia, namely, swordsmen.In his books, readers can learn about Chinese calligraphy(书法), painting,music,medicine and wine. He was the most successful writer in popularizing traditional Chinese culture. Chinese people had a deeply-rooted admiration for noble qualities and love for the country. So he won many people’s heart. Many people are fond of watching films and TV dramas adapted from his books, which influenced many peopled personality and value.Jin’s influence knew no national boundary. No matter in New York, Singapore or Vancouver, where there are Chinese, there are his readers. His death marks the end of an era for martial art novels. We can hardly expect to see other writers with such influence and artistic achievement as him.In terms of writing technique, Jin borrowed from Western plays. Some of his plots were just like ancient Greek tragedy. For instance, in his Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils (《天龙八部》), the hero was like a tragic figure in Greek mythology. Writers in the West created new worlds like the one in the Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter. If there is an imagined world in China, that is the world with martial arts and swordsmen Jin wrote for us.【】1、How does Jin influence his readers?A、By making films and TV dramas.B、By making his readers read his books.C、By making his readers love for country.D、By making traditional Chinese culture popular. 【】2、What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A、Jin knew no national boundary.B、Other writers can get achievement as him.C、An era of martial art novels was ended as he died.D、People live in foreign countries are his readers. 【】3、By which did Jin make his writing technique better?A、Chinese novels.B.Western plays.C.Greek tragedy.D.Greek mythology.【】4、What can be a suitable title for the text?A、The Basic Introduction of Jin's LifeB、Jin's Writing Technique of His BooksC、Jin's Making Martial Arts and Swordsmen BetterD、The World of Jin's Martial Arts and Swordsmen3.Engineers have pul a huge garbage collector to gather plastic irfaterial in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii, the worlfPs largest spread of garbage, twice the size of the state of Texas.The Ocean Cleanu p organization created the collector. The group’s founder, Boyan Slat, an inventor born in 1994, was just 16 when he was moved to clean up the oceans when he was on a dive and saw more plastic bags than fish.Last Saturday, a ship pulling the pipe-shaped floating barrier left San Francisco. Attached to it is a screening skirt that hangs three meters down in the water. The screen is designed lo collect the plastic as it moves through the water. Sea animals can safely swim under the barrier.The cleanup system also comes with lights powered by the sun, cameras, and other special d e v i c e s(设备), so the system can communicate its position at all times. That way a support ship can find it every few months to remove the plastic that has been collected.Shipping containers will hold all the plastic gathered, including bottles and fishing equipment and are expected to be back on land within a year. Then the plastic will be recycled. The free-floating bamers are made to survive extreme weather conditions and damage from continual use. They will stay in the water for twenty years, thus collecting 90% of the garbage in the area.The Ocean Cleanup has received $ 35 million in donations to pay for the project, hoping to put 60 free-floating barriers in the Pacific Ocean by 2020. “It’s important to turn off the taps on plastic entering the ocean, but I alsothink people can do more than one thing at a time to deal with this problem,” Slat said.【】1、What drove Slat to invent the collector?A、The interest in invention.B、His failure to dive due to rubbish.C、The sight of too many plastic bags.D、His knowledge of garbage in the Pacific Ocean. 【】2、How does the floating barrier work?A、It reaches into the water to collect the plastic.B、It has large containers to produce power.C、It forms barriers to protect sea animals.D、A ship drags it along in the ocean.【】3、Which does the underlined word “it" in paragraph 4 refer to?A、The support ship.B、The floating barrier.C、The plastic to be recycled.D、The position of special devices.【】4、What is important for protecting the ocean according to Slat?A、Sending more collectors into the ocean.B、Inventing more ocean cleanup devices.C、Stopping plastic from entering the ocean.D、Banning the use of plastic bags in boats.4. While you won’t be enjoying the fountain of youth just yet, the breakthrough could be the first step towards anti-ageing dings. As we get older, our cells start to stop functioning and we accumulate what are called aged cells. It’s not just that these cells have stopped div iding, but they also compromise the other cells that surround them. Removing these cells has been shown to lessen the effect of ageing on animals—such as by delaying the beginning of cataracts(白内障).Scientists at the University of Exeter think they've found which factors play a key role in turning cells aged. They conducted a study on human cells in a laboratory and managed to reduce the number of aged cells by 50% by using a special compound(复合物) they had developed. “The compounds developed at Exeter h ave the potential to adjust the structures by which this ageing of cells happens," said Professor Lorna Harries, from the University of Exeter Medical School.“We used to think age-related diseases like cancer, dementia and diabetes each had a unique cause,but they actually track back to one or two common structures. This research focuses on one of these structures, and the findings with our compounds have potentially opened up the way for new cure approaches in the future." "Nearly half of the aged cel ls we tested showed signs of recovering into young cell models,” said Professor Harries.The researchers tested three different compounds, all developed at the University of Exeter, and found each produced a 40% - 50% drop in the number of aged blood vessel cells. Hie compounds —AP39, AP123 and RT01 —have been designed by the Exeter team to selectively deliver small quantities of the gas hydrogen sulfide(硫化氢) to the mitochondria(线粒体) in cells and help the old or damaged cells to provide the "energy" needed for survival and to reduce aging.【】1、How do we know a person becomes old?A、The aged cells make other cells work passively.B、The aging cells become more, and harm other cells.C、The cells stop dividing and accumulate more and more.D、The aging cells make the other good cells compromise.【】2、How do the scientists ease the number of aged cells by 50%?A、They used a special thing to kill the aged cells.B、They turned most of the aged cells young.C、They turned the aged cells develop slowly.D、They created and used a special compound.【】3、What can we learn from Professor Harries in Paragraph 3?A、Cancer, dementia and diabetes can be probably cured.B、Cancer, dementia and diabetes have the same cause.C、The cause to cancer, dementia and diabetes is found.D、All the aged cells can become the young ones.【】4、From which is the text probably taken?A、A health magazine.B、A research paper.C、Science fiction.D. A travel brochure二、七选五5.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2019届高考英语全真模拟密押卷（五）1、In 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, toFairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun.All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom's vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn't care much about my bedtime.Dad was a Railway Express agent and Morn was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me home.Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did!I had a tour of the prison before Morn rescued me. I hadn't turned 5 yet.As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped (包裹)heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d'Alene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.1.What can be inferred about the author's family?A.His father was a cruel man.B.His parents didn't love him.C.His parents used to be very busy.D.His mother didn't have any jobs.2.What happened when the author was 4?A.He learned to smoke.B.He was locked in a basement.C.He was arrested by the police.D.He nearly caused a fire accident.3.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Leonhard was good at driving dog sleds.B.The author spent his whole childhood in Alaska.C.Leonhard often visited the author's family after 1950.D.The author suffered a lot while taking the dog sled in Alaska.4.What is the author's purpose of writing the text?A.To look back on his childhood with adventures.B.To describe the extreme weather of Alaska.C.To express how much he misses Leonhard.D.To show off his pride in making trouble.2、That robots, automation, and software can replace people might seem obvious to anyone who’s worked in automotive manufacturing. But MIT business scholars Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfe e’s claim is more troubling and controversial. They believe that rapid technological change has been destroying jobs faster than it is creating them.They believe that technology increases productivity and makes societies wealthier, but it became clear to them that the same technologies making many jobs safer, easier, and more productive were also reducing the demand for many types of human workers. Technologies like the Web, artificial intelligence, and big data are automating many routine tasks. Countless traditional white-collar jobs, such as many in the post office and in customer service, have disappeared.As evidence, Brynjolfsson and McAfee point to a chart on which separate lines represent productivity and total employment in the United States. For years after World War II, the two lines closely tracked each other, with increases in jobs corresponding to increases in productivity. Then, beginning in 2000, the lines diverge; productivity continues to rise steadily, but employment suddenly shrinks. By 2011, a significant gap appears between the two lines, showing economic growth with no parallel increase in job creation.United States Productivity and EmploymentBut are these new technologies really responsible for a decade of lackluster (无生气) job growth? David Autor, an economist at MIT who has studied the connections between jobs and technology, doubts that technology could account for such a sudden change in total employment. Moreover, he also doubts that productivity has, in fact, risen steadily in the United States in the past decade. If he’s right, it raises the possibility that poor job growth could be simply a result of a depressed economy. The sudden slowdown in job creation “is a big puzzle,” he says, “but there’s not a lot of evidence tha t it’s linked to computers.” “To be sure, computer technologies are changing the types of jobs available, but that is very different from saying technology is affecting the total number of jobs,” he adds. “Jobs can change a lot without there being huge cha nges in employment rates.”Lawrence Katz, a Harvard economist, says that while technological changes can be painful for workers whose skills no longer match the needs of employers, no historical pattern shows these shifts leading to a net decrease in jobs over an extended period. Still, Katz doesn’t dismiss the notion that there is something different about today’s digital technologies. Though he expects the historical pattern to hold, it is “genuinely a question,” he says. “If technology disrupts enough, w ho knows what will happen?”1.Which period on the chart strongly supports McAfee’s claim?A.1947—1967.B.1985—1987.C.1997—2000.D.2011—2013.2.According to David Autor, the change in job growth ________.A.is not necessarily caused by technologyB.results from a weakening economyC.has no connection with productivityD.affects the current types of jobs3.What is Lawrence Katz’s attitude towards the topic?A.Optimistic.B.Defensive.C.Objective.D.Disapproving.4.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A.show the relation between productivity and job creationB.discuss the effect of technological advances on employmentC.argue against the wide use of artificial intelligenceD.explain the impact of technologies on productivity3、Over seven months have passed since Panamanian officials launched an expansion of the world famous Panama Canal. Officials agreed to the expansion so that many of the world’s largest cargo ships (货船) could easily pass through the canal. Yet the $ 5.25-billion project has problems. It says ships still continue to rub against the canal’s walls and wear out its defenses designed to protect both shipping and the waterway.A dangerous systemThe canal links two oceans-the Atlantic and the Pacific-through a system of locks (船闸). The locks are like steps. They raise and lower ships from one part of the waterway to another on their trip from ocean to ocean.With the old locks, which are still in use, large ships would be tied to powerful engines on both sides. These engines help to keep the ships in the center of the canal. In the new locks, the ships are tied to tugboats (拖船). One tugboat is tied to the front of the ship, with the other tied to the back. These boats then guide the ships through the canal.At first, pilots of the cargo ships and tugboat operators would sometimes try to rub the boats against the canal walls as a way to keep the ships straight. But this caused damage to rubber padding (垫料) lining the walls.Not enough trainingEven before the expanded canal opened in June 2016, tugboat operators had expressed concern about the new system. Many asked for more training. The fears and dangers remain, although the boats are going through.The Panama Canal Authority reports that, between June 2016 and January 2017, there were only 15 incidents that resulted in damage to locks or ships. That represents about 2 percent of the 700 times ships that have sailed through the expanded canal.Pilots have argued they should be replaced with a system of floating bumpers (减震) like those used in some European locks. Officials say they plan to continue operating with the current system of defenses, but changes could happen in the future.1.What is the difference between the new locks and the old ones?A.The old locks don’t need rubber padding as defenses.B.The new locks need tugboats tied to both sides of the ships.C.The new locks are easier for the largest ships to pass through the canal.D.The old locks need powerful engines to drag the ships through the canal.2.W hat is the Panama Canal Authority’s attitude towards the expanded canal?A.Cautious.B.Critical.C.Positive.D.Doubtful.3.What can we learn about the current system of defenses?A.No ships shall rub against the canal walls to protect it.B.Nothing will be done at present to improve it.C.More training will be given to pilots for it.D.A new system will replace it.4、Two of the saddest words in the English language are " if only". I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right. " I always try to live by the "extra minute" rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an ”if only" moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding(衬垫) onto the sharp comers of a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those " if only" moments when it comes to safety. It‘s equally important to avoid " if only" in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say " I love you“ or " I forgive you". When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be there. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him.I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say " if only" about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy sched ule to make a personal connection, I know that I'm doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.1.Which of the following is an example of the "extra minute" rule?A.Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B.Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.C.Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.D.Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.2.The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to .A.keep her appointment with the eye doctorB.meet her father who was already an old manC.join in the holiday celebration of the companyD.finish her work before the deadline approached3.The underlined word "foregone" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to" " .A.abandonedckedC.avoidedD.cherished4.What is the best title for the passage?A.The Emotional Well-beingB.The Two Saddest WordsC.The Most Useful RuleD.The Peace of Mind5、Why you shouldn’t punish your kids for l yingGetting your children to stop lying is challenging. There are many influences (TV, movies, video games and some great books) in which lies are common. Children see parents lie to others, if only to be polite. Most parents add to that with tales about the lives and activities of Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy, or to lessen fears. ①__________ The most common reactions to children who lie are explaining why it is wrong and punishment. ②__________ Here are three better tools supported by research to use instead.PRAISE: You could ask your child to say something that happened at school that is true. When your child obeys, praise him enthusiastically. Be specific: ③__________ and give your child a hug or a high five. Aim for one or two interactions (互动) like this a day. If you happen to “catch” your child in a lie, say something like, “T hat is not true and could get you in trouble outside of the home.”MODEL: Explicitly tell the truth. This could be about something that happened when you were a child or something that happened during the day. It need not be dramatic. Another option is to play a game at dinner. Each person tells one thing that was true that day. Again, give a little praise to the child who normally lies if she plays along.DECREASE PUNISHMENT AND MORALIZING: They are unlikely to change behavior or develop the conduct you want. ④__________ Rather, use very mild punishment (light scolding, short loss of privilege, a brieftime-out). More severe punishments (shouting, taking away something for a week, hitting) are not more effective in actually changing the frequency of lying.⑤__________ Usually they can be dropped by then. It is unlikely that lying will be completely removed, but with the right encouragement, k can be dramatically lessened.A. It is not what that is, but about practice.B. As ways of changing behavior, these are ineffective.C. That does not mean ignoring, lying or letting it go.D. “That was great! You told me what happened just like I asked. Wow!”E. Try these procedures for two to three weeks and see where you are.F. “You did a good job, but what you said was not what I’d like to know!”G. Parents do this out of love, but for some children, lying can become a problem.6、阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The show has caused debate on social media about the acting skills of some stars.A flood of investment in China’s TV and film industry has driven up paychecks for popular young attractive persons and soap opera sweethearts, but some stars have been slammed by critics and the public for lacking professionalism and acting skills.＂People wonder why some actors don’t take acting seriously with more and more money pouring in,＂Wu Tong wrote. However, he said that he had met many devoted young actors through the show, whose A-list cast ofmentors(导师) includes Zhang Ziyi, who starred in the Oscar-winning kung fu epic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; and comedy queen Song Dandan.One highlight from the first episode saw Zhang appear to become angry when she disagreed with her fellow judge-mentor Liu Ye over the performance of contestant Zheng Shuang.＂Do you know what acting is?＂Zhang questioned Liu. In response, Liu slammed his phone on the table —and then his shoe.As the audience and contestants were left stunned（震惊的）, Zhang turned to Liu and warmly said, ＂Give me a hug.＂The two mentors explained that their quarrel was intended to show how to act out a scene of conflict —but later, online commentators speculated（推测）that Zhang was concealing her genuine irritation.24. What can we learn about The Birth of Performer according to Paragraph 2?A. Only the young love it.B. It proves popular.C. The performers are excellent.D. There are fewer stars present.25.What does the underlined word ＂slammed＂in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Praised.B. Employed.C. Criticized.D. Applied.26. By mentioning Zhang Ziyi, Wu Tong wants to show _______.A. she is famous worldwideB. she earned a lot of moneyC. she is devoted to performanceD. she has drawn public attention27. How did Liu react when Zhang Ziyi questioned Zheng Shuang’s performance?A. He consulted with her patiently.B. He behaved rather rudely.C. He had words with her.D. He fought against her.CWhile visiting the North Pole in winter may not be at the top of your list, the ever-changing ICEHOTEL, which opened its doors to visitors on December 14 this year, may change your mind. Lying 200 km north of the Arctic Circle in Jukkasjärvi, the hotel, which is carved entirely from ice, is rebuilt annually, with each getting increasingly beautiful and impressive.The 29-year-old tradition began accidentally in 1989, after Jukkasjärvi residents organized an art show in a 5.5-square-meter ice house to try to call tourists’ attention to the remote village during the freezing winter months. The exhibition was a huge success, attracting many day visitors. However, it was not until a group of adventurous souls arrived with sleeping bags, announcing their intention to spend the night inside the house, that the idea of the frozen hotel was born.The ICEHOTEL has come a long way since its beginnings. It covers an area of over 5,500 square meters. The planning begins months earlier in March when about 5,000 tons of ice are harvested from the river and transferred to cold storage, where they sit till the beginning of winter. Construction begins in earnest in November, when about 100 workers come to the region. By December, the unique frozen accommodation is ready to open for business.Regardless of whether visitors select the luxury carved suites or the basic ice rooms, the temperature is always set to a bone-chilling -5°C! That is why guests are advised to lie close inside warm sleeping bags and wear gloves and winter hats all night. Not surprisingly, most end up spending just a single night at this unique hotel before moving on to the conventional, and warmer, cabins nearby.In addition to the unique rooms, the hotel also offers guests fun activities like snowshoeing, or dog sledding, and for those brave enough to suffer through the below freezing temperatures —overnight wilderness camping! The hotel’s single restaurant serves food, while the drinks are always chilled to perfection in the world-famous ICEBAR!28. Why did Jukkasjärvi residents organize an art show in 1989?A. To attract tourists.B. To follow a tradition.C. To excite adventurers.D. To experience cold.29. How to deal with tons of ice harvested from the river in March?A. Carve them roughly.B. Keep them with cold storage.C. Design unique forms.D. Construct them slowly.30. Which of the following characteristics is necessary for those going camping all night?A. Wealth.B. Good health.C. Near distance.D. Braveness.31. What’s the best title for the passage?A. ICEHOTEL, a Wise ChoiceB. ICEHOTEL Is in the Arctic CircleC. ICEHOTEL Has a Unique SceneryD. ICEHOTEL Opens for the 29th YearDAs solar power becomes a bigger part of our overall energy mix, scientists are working on more efficient ways of storing the power of the sun for use during the night-time, or on particularly cloudy days. And now a new type of material has been developed that can do just that —store solar energy when it’s in abundance, and release it as heat later on as required."This work presents an exciting way for energy harvesting and storage within a single material," the University of To ronto’s Ted Sargent told MIT News. "The approach is innovative and distinctive."Many solar energy storage initiatives(方案) focus on converting the energy to electricity and then keeping the electricity saved for later use. This approach instead uses a chemical reaction that produces heat rather than power.The key to the process is a molecule(分子) that can remain stable in one of two configurations(结构). Sunlight kicks it into a long-lasting ＂charged＂mode, and then another stimulus(刺激) —such as light, heat, or electricity — is used to return it to its original, ＂not charged＂state, and a burst of heat was given off as a result.Such solar thermal fuels (STF) have been developed before, but this new method is the first based on a solid-state material rather than a liquid one, and that can make all the difference in terms of how it can be used. What’s more, it’s based on inexpensive materials and with widespread manufacturing in mind.The researchers want to remove the slight yellowish smell that the material currently has, and increase the heat level from 10°C to 20°C. One of the first practical uses could be in electric cars, which can suffer from reduced driving ranges in cold weather due to the extra energy required for heating.32.What is the most special of the new type of material?A. It saves electricity for later use.B. It changes the energy to electricity.C. It stores plenty of heat and power as well.D. It produces heat through a chemical reaction.33.What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us?A. The principle of producing heat.B. The difficulty of producing heat.C. The long process of absorbing heat.D. The basic configurations of a molecule.34. Which of the following is right about the STF mentioned in the passage?A. It hasn’t been tried out before.B. It can’t be gotten from a liquid.C. It is of little value in real life.D. It proves not a bit expensive.35. What do the researchers think of the heat level?A. It’s low.B. It’s high.C. It’s proper.D. It’s unimportant.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2019届高考英语全真模拟密押卷（五）1、In 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, toFairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun.All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom's vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn't care much about my bedtime.Dad was a Railway Express agent and Morn was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me home.Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did!I had a tour of the prison before Morn rescued me. I hadn't turned 5 yet.As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped (包裹)heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d'Alene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.1.What can be inferred about the author's family?A.His father was a cruel man.B.His parents didn't love him.C.His parents used to be very busy.D.His mother didn't have any jobs.2.What happened when the author was 4?A.He learned to smoke.B.He was locked in a basement.C.He was arrested by the police.D.He nearly caused a fire accident.3.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Leonhard was good at driving dog sleds.B.The author spent his whole childhood in Alaska.C.Leonhard often visited the author's family after 1950.D.The author suffered a lot while taking the dog sled in Alaska.4.What is the author's purpose of writing the text?A.To look back on his childhood with adventures.B.To describe the extreme weather of Alaska.C.To express how much he misses Leonhard.D.To show off his pride in making trouble.2、That robots, automation, and software can replace people might seem obvious to anyone who’s worked in automotive manufacturing. But MIT business scholars Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfe e’s claim is more troubling and controversial. They believe that rapid technological change has been destroying jobs faster than it is creating them.They believe that technology increases productivity and makes societies wealthier, but it became clear to them that the same technologies making many jobs safer, easier, and more productive were also reducing the demand for many types of human workers. Technologies like the Web, artificial intelligence, and big data are automating many routine tasks. Countless traditional white-collar jobs, such as many in the post office and in customer service, have disappeared.As evidence, Brynjolfsson and McAfee point to a chart on which separate lines represent productivity and total employment in the United States. For years after World War II, the two lines closely tracked each other, with increases in jobs corresponding to increases in productivity. Then, beginning in 2000, the lines diverge; productivity continues to rise steadily, but employment suddenly shrinks. By 2011, a significant gap appears between the two lines, showing economic growth with no parallel increase in job creation.United States Productivity and Employment。
