)I. 语言知识及应用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)Computer programmer and entrepreneur Damir Sabol has created an application using smartphone cameras to scan mathematical equations and return results within seconds. But the app, called PhotoMath, does much more than that, he said."The students can check the 1 in their textbooks. They can calculate quickly and get the result fast, and see whether they did it right or not, but they can also get all the 2 used to solve math problems. So it's not just a matterof 3 results, but the whole process of getting to the solution. And we offer the 4 process, step by step, along with explanations of what is being done. So for someone who is alone with a textbook, who just stares at equations and doesn't know what to do, our app can help them in many cases," said Sabol.PhotoMath was unveiled at a computer 5 in London last October. Sabol said that since then, the free 6 has been downloaded more than 11 million times."We hear from mothers who say, 'Finally, I can help my 7 solve mathematics.' We hear from teachers who say their entire classroom is using the app," he said. 8 , the inventor has been working on an upgrade for the successful app."We are about to 9 a new version of the app. First, we will release the Android version, which has a much 10 market, and we expect that to be the next element of growth. But not only that, the new version will support much more complex math problems, and we believe it will be much more interesting and useful for users, which is also why we expect the number of users to 11 even further," said Sabol.Sabol's company, MicroBLINK, 12 a breakthrough in 2012 with its PhotoPay scanning technology used for mobile banking, which scans bills and enables their 13 payment. His project has attracted attention from major educational companies."They see our technology is something that 14 works in education, and that it is something children want to use, and they see lots of 15 for that. We believe this has really huge potential," he said.1.A. skills B. results C. means D. aspects2.A. steps B. cases C. tools D. methods3.A. bringing B. getting C. concerning D. taking4.A. sectional B. single C. entire D. partial5.A. firm B. schedule C. company D. fair6.A. appliction B. explanation C. perfection D. expectation7.A. daughter B. teachers C. children D. students8.A.

Children should grow along with playing games, for, 16 playing games, they can not only acquire knowledge, but also cultivate their abilities to get along with others.However, most children 17 (face) with a completely different situation. Most parents fear that games will prevent children from increasing new knowledge and 18 the children will fail in the future examinations. So, instead of 19 (let) the children themselves find and learn naturally from their surroundings, they force their children to take part in 20 (variety) kinds of classes, learning English, playing 21 piano or practising drawing, etc. What’s more, some parents put 22 the children’s toys which are very useful in developing children’s imagination and practical abilities.23 is a piece of good advice to those parents: 24 you want to expect yourchild to be able to accomplish something, you must first of all develop his ability to adapt to the new surroundings. That cram education can lead to nothing 25 a failure in the children’s growth.II. 阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)AFrench surgeons have performed what they said on Wednesday was the world’s first partial face transplant---giving a new nose, chin and lips to a woman attacked by a dog.Specialists from two French hospitals carried out the operation on a 38-year-old woman on Sunday in the northern city of Amiens by taking the face from a brain-dead woman, who had hanged herself just hours before the operation. Her family agreed on the operation.“The patient is in an excellent state and the transplant looks normal,” the hospitals said in a brief statement after waiting three days to announce the pioneering surgery.The woman had been left without a nose and lips after the dog attacked her last May, and was unable to talk o r chew properly. Such injuries are “extremely difficult, if not impossible” to repair using normal surgical techniques, the statement said.The statement did not say what the woman would look like when she had fully recovered, but medical experts said she was unlikely to resemble the woman who had been the source of her new face.The operation was led by Jean-Michel Dubernard, a specialist from a hospital in Lyon who has also carried out hand transplants.Skin transplants have long been used to treat burns and other injuries, but operations around the mouth and nose have been considered very difficult because of the area’s high sensitivity to foreign tissue.Teams in France, the United States and Britain had been developing techniques to make face transplants a reality.There was a short-term risk for the patient if blood vessels(脉管) became blocked, a medium-term danger of her body rejecting the new skin and a long-term possibility that the drugs used could cause cancers.Experts say that although such medical advances should be celebrated, the transplant hadthrown up moral and ethical(伦理的)issues. Little is known about the psychological effect of the transplant.26. The best title for the passage would be _______.A. French Woman has First Partial Face TransplantB. First Face Transplant Opens DebateC. Risks and Ethical Problems of a Face TransplantD. A Complete Face Transplant of a French Woman27. Why did the woman need such an operation?A. Her face had been bitten by a dog.B. Her face had been burnt in a fire.C. She was born especially ugly.D. She wanted to test such an operation.28. The underlined word “resemble” means _____.A. to remember foreverB. to recognize immediatelyC. to set as an exampleD. to exhibit similarity or likeness to29. What can we learn about the operation?A. The woman had used the dead woman’s whole face.B. There has arisen a debate about the operation.C. The woman will suffer from psychological damage soon.D. Such transplants have been performed by doctors.30. Which of the following is NOT one of the risks of the operation?A. Block of blood vessels.B. Organ rejection.C. Heart damage.D. Side effect of the drugs.B"No air-conditioning? How can you sleep?" a friend asks, horrified. I've just told him that my family has decided to shut the air-conditioner off, and cut our electric bill.On this first night of our cost-cutting adventure, it's only eighty-five degrees. We're not going to suffer, but the three kids grumble anyway."It's too hot to sleep." my thirteen-year-old daughter complains."I'm about to die from this heat." her brother says."Just try it tonight." I tell them. In truth, I'm too tired to argue for long. My face is sweaty. ButI lie quietly, listening to the cricket (蟋蟀) choirs (合唱) outside. That reminds me of childhood.I think about grandma, who lived to ninety-two and was still in charge of my mother's garden until a few weeks ago before she died. And then I'm back there in her house and the summer heat of my childhood. I moved my pillow to the foot of my grandmother's bed, and angled my face toward the open window. I turned the pillow over, hunting for the cooler side.Grandma saw me struggling, "If you just watch for the breeze (light wind)," she said, "you'll cool off and fall asleep."She cranked up (拉起) the Venetian blinds (百叶窗). I stared at the white curtain, wishing it to move. Lying still in waiting, I suddenly noticed life outside the window, the bug (虫子) choruses, neighbors, porch-sitting late, speaking in soft words that comforted me."Mom, did you hear that?" my seven-year-old asks, "I think it's an owl (猫头鹰) family.""Probably." I tell him, "Just keep listening..."Without the noisy air-conditioner, the house is strangely peaceful, and the night noises seem close enough to touch. I hope I'm awake tonight, when the first breeze sneaks in.31. What does the underlined word "grumble" mean?A. lose temperB. shoutC. complainD. give up32. The author mentions her childhood to_____.A. convince the readers of the possibility of life without air-conditioningB. memorize her considerate and kind grandmotherC. suggest a way of handling a night without air-conditioningD. share her childhood experience of going without air-conditioning33. How did the author's grandmother help the author feel cooler?A. She persuaded the author to listen to the noise outside.B. She opened the windows and drew the curtains.C. She asked the author to observe the soft wind.D. She found the cooler side of pillow for the author.34. Finally, the children feel ________ without the air-conditioner on.A. unimaginableB. peacefulC. intolerableD. bored35. What is the best title of this passage?A. A childhood memoryB. Life with no air-conditionerC. A night full of memoryD. Waiting for the breezeCWhat would you do to reduce the chance of dying of cancer? How far would you go if you had a 70 to 90 percent chance of contracting bowel(肠)cancer -- and your uncle, mother, father, and two of your brothers had died from it?Lynne Fisher decided she would do almost anything. So, even though she showed no signs of cancer at all, Fisher, 51, a former mental health worker, agreed to undergo what might sound like a radical surgery: doctors removed nearly her whole colon(结肠) and rerouted her small intestine(肠) to perform the functions of her large intestine.The side effects were horrific, she said. For a year, Fisher struggled to control her bowel movements. She fought depression, and she hated her large scars and the 28 staples that had been left in her body. Her Multiple Sclerosis returned. The woman she shared a hospital room with -- who'd had a similar surgery -- did not survive."When you're in it, it's like a dark tunnel," she told ABC News in a long phone conversation about her medical history.But then, one day, she realized the surgery had helped saved her life. And since then, she's never looked back."What's a year out of your life compared to dying?" the 51-year-old said from her home in central England. "I get to watch my dogs grow up, my children grow up, my grandchild, I get to see my cherry blossoms in the tree, I get to see the sun shining in the morning, I get to go on holiday -- I get to see life."Genes that cause breast cancer have been discussed widely for years. But less well known is Lynch syndrome, the gene mutation that Fisher and her much of her family inherited.Roughly one in 370 people has Lynch syndrome, according to Lynch Syndrome International, an organization dedicated to helping people with Lynch syndrome and those who treat them. It's unclear how many Americans choose to have the surgery that Fisher had: prophylactic subtotal colectomy, which doctors describe as a major surgery that, while elective, can often save lives.36.Why did Lynne Fisher decide to remove nearly her whole colon?A. Because she has already had a cancer.B. Because she thought the colon was useless.C. Because she was afraid of dying of bowel cancer someday.D. Because her doctor persuaded her to do that.37. According to the passage, what is NOT true about the surgery undergone by Lynne Fisher?A. It is only a very simple and easy surgery.B. It can bring about some terrible side effects.C. It’s possible for one to die of the surgery.D. It takes one maybe a year to recover from the surgery.38. What can we learn from the underlined sentence?A. Lynne Fisher really regretted what she had done.B. Lynne Fisher thought it was not worth a year to have the surgery.C. Compared to death, the suffering during the year was worthwhile.D. Lynne Fisher spent a painful year in recovering from the surgery.39. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. About 0.27% people have Lynch syndrome now in America.B. We can tell exactly how many people have had the surgery.C. Lynch Syndrome International helps people with Lynch syndrome only.D. People with Lynch syndrome will be forced to have the surgery.40. The main purpose of the passage is to _________.A. persuade people with Lynch syndrome to have a surgeryB. introduce Lynne Fisher and the disease she developedC. tell us something about the Lynch syndrome and its effect on our healthD. introduce Lynch syndrome to us and tell us that a surgery can save livesDIt turns out that nodding off in class may not be such a bad idea after all, as a new study has shown that going to sleep shortly after learning new material is the best way to remember it.According to US lead author Jessica Payne, a psychologist at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, nodding off after learning somet hing new is like ‘telling’ the sleeping brain what to keep in memory. Along with colleagues, she studied 207 students who habitually slept for at least six hours per night. Participants were randomly assigned to study declarative, semantically relatedor unrelated word pairs at 9 a.m. or 9 p.m., and returned for testing 30 minutes, 12 hours and 24 hours later.Declarative memory refers to the ability to consciously remember facts and events, and can be broken down into episodic memory (memory for events) and semantic memory (memory for facts about the world). People routinely use both types of memory every day – recalling where we parked today or learning how a colleague prefers to be addressed. At the 12-hour retest, memory overall was superior following a night of sleep compared to a day of wakefulness. At the 24-hour retest, with all subjects having received both a full night of sleep and a full day of wakefulness, subjects’ memories were superior when sleep occurred shortly after learning, rather than fo llowing a full day of wakefulness.“Our study confirms that sleeping directly after learning something new is beneficial for memory. What’s novel about this study is that we tried to shine light on sleep’s influence on both types of declarative memory by studying semantically unrelated and related word pairs”, Payne said. “Since we found that sleeping soon after learning benefited both types of memory, this means that it would be a good thing to rehearse any information you need to remember just before goi ng to bed. In some sense, you may be “telling” the sleeping brain what to consolidate (巩固).”41. What does the underlined phrase nodding off mean?A. Going to sleep.B. Arguing with othersC. Asking questions.D. Answering questions.42. How many times will the participants tested?A. At least onceB. At least twiceC. At least three timesD. At least four times43. What can we infer from the passage about the study?A. Jessica Payne carried out the study all by herself.B. The 207 students were forced to sleep at least six hours per night.C. Participants were asked to memorize things according to strict rules.D. Participants could memorize what they learnt right before they slept best.44. What would Payne advise us to do?A. Memorize things after we have a good sleep.B. Memorize things just before our sleep.C. All the students go to sleep in class.D. Memorize things at mid-night.45. The text is most probably a _________.A. science reportB. book reviewC. science fiction storyD. newspaper advertisement.第二节信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读以下英国牛津大学出版社的图书信息,并按要求匹配信息。

Such injuries are “extremely difficult, if not impossible” to repair using normal surgical techniques, the statement said.The statement did not say what the woman would look like when she had fully recovered, but medical experts said she was unlikely to resemble the woman who had been the source of her new face.The operation was led by Jean-Michel Dubernard, a specialist from a hospital in Lyon who has also carried out hand transplants.Skin transplants have long been used to treat burns and other injuries, but operations around the mouth and nose have been considered very difficult because of the area’s high sensitivity to foreign tissue.Teams in France, the United States and Britain had been developing techniques to make face transplants a reality.There was a short-term risk for the patient if blood vessels(脉管) became blocked, a medium-term danger of her body rejecting the new skin and a long-term possibility that the drugs used could cause cancers.Experts say that although such medical advances should be celebrated, the transplant had thrownup moral and ethical(伦理的)issues. Little is known about the psychological effect of the transplant.26. The best title for the passage would be _______.A. French Woman has First Partial Face TransplantB. First Face Transplant Opens DebateC. Risks and Ethical Problems of a Face TransplantD. A Complete Face Transplant of a French Woman27. Why did the woman need such an operation?A. Her face had been bitten by a dog.B. Her face had been burnt in a fire.C. She was born especially ugly.D. She wanted to test such an operation.28.

Such transplants have been performed by doctors.30. Which of the following is NOT one of the risks of the operation?A. Block of blood vessels.B. Organ rejection.C. Heart damage.D. Side effect of the drugs.B"No air-conditioning? How can you sleep?" a friend asks, horrified. I've just told him that my family has decided to shut the air-conditioner off, and cut our electric bill.On this first night of our cost-cutting adventure, it's only eighty-five degrees. We're not going to suffer, but the three kids grumble anyway."It's too hot to sleep." my thirteen-year-old daughter complains."I'm about to die from this heat." her brother says."Just try it tonight." I tell them. In truth, I'm too tired to argue for long. My face is sweaty. But I lie quietly, listening to the cricket (蟋蟀) choirs (合唱) outside. That reminds me of childhood.I think about grandma, who lived to ninety-two and was still in charge of my mother's garden until a few weeks ago before she died. And then I'm back there in her house and the summer heat of my childhood. I moved my pillow to the foot of my grandmother's bed, and angled my face toward the open window. I turned the pillow over, hunting for the cooler side.Grandma saw me struggling, "If you just watch for the breeze (light wind)," she said, "you'll cool off and fall asleep."She cranked up (拉起) the Venetian blinds (百叶窗). I stared at the white curtain, wishing it to move. Lying still in waiting, I suddenly noticed life outside the window, the bug (虫子) choruses, neighbors, porch-sitting late, speaking in soft words that comforted me."Mom, did you hear that?" my seven-year-old asks, "I think it's an owl (猫头鹰) family.""Probably." I tell him, "Just keep listening..."Without the noisy air-conditioner, the house is strangely peaceful, and the night noises seem close enough to touch. I hope I'm awake tonight, when the first breeze sneaks in.31. What does the underlined word "grumble" mean?A. lose temperB. shoutC. complainD. give up32. The author mentions her childhood to_____.A. convince the readers of the possibility of life without air-conditioningB. memorize her considerate and kind grandmotherC. suggest a way of handling a night without air-conditioningD. share her childhood experience of going without air-conditioning33. How did the author's grandmother help the author feel cooler?A. She persuaded the author to listen to the noise outside.B. She opened the windows and drew the curtains.C. She asked the author to observe the soft wind.D. She found the cooler side of pillow for the author.34. Finally, the children feel ________ without the air-conditioner on.A. unimaginableB. peacefulC. intolerableD. bored35. What is the best title of this passage?A. A childhood memoryB. Life with no air-conditionerC. A night full of memoryD. Waiting for the breezeCWhat would you do to reduce the chance of dying of cancer? How far would you go if you had a 70 to 90 percent chance of contracting bowel(肠)cancer -- and your uncle, mother, father, and two of your brothers had died from it?Lynne Fisher decided she would do almost anything. So, even though she showed no signs of cancer at all, Fisher, 51, a former mental health worker, agreed to undergo what might sound like a radical surgery: doctors removed nearly her whole colon(结肠) and rerouted her small intestine(肠) to perform the functions of her large intestine.The side effects were horrific, she said. For a year, Fisher struggled to control her bowel movements. She fought depression, and she hated her large scars and the 28 staples that had been left in her body. Her Multiple Sclerosis returned. The woman she shared a hospital room with -- who'd had a similar surgery -- did not survive."When you're in it, it's like a dark tunnel," she told ABC News in a long phone conversation about her medical history.But then, one day, she realized the surgery had helped saved her life. And since then, she's never looked back."What's a year out of your life compared to dying?" the 51-year-old said from her home in central England. "I get to watch my dogs grow up, my children grow up, my grandchild, I get to see my cherry blossoms in the tree, I get to see the sun shining in the morning, I get to go on holiday -- I get to see life."Genes that cause breast cancer have been discussed widely for years. But less well known is Lynch syndrome, the gene mutation that Fisher and her much of her family inherited.Roughly one in 370 people has Lynch syndrome, according to Lynch Syndrome International, an organization dedicated to helping people with Lynch syndrome and those who treat them. It's unclear how many Americans choose to have the surgery that Fisher had: prophylactic subtotal colectomy, which doctors describe as a major surgery that, while elective, can often save lives.Why did Lynne Fisher decide to remove nearly her whole colon?A. Because she has already had a cancer.B. Because she thought the colon was useless.C. Because she was afraid of dying of bowel cancer someday.D. Because her doctor persuaded her to do that.37. According to the passage, what is NOT true about the surgery undergone by Lynne Fisher?A. It is only a very simple and easy surgery.B. It can bring about some terrible side effects.C. It’s possible for one to die of the surgery.D. It takes one maybe a year to recover from the surgery.38. What can we learn from the underlined sentence?A. Lynne Fisher really regretted what she had done.B. Lynne Fisher thought it was not worth a year to have the surgery.C. Compared to death, the suffering during the year was worthwhile.D. Lynne Fisher spent a painful year in recovering from the surgery.39. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. About 0.27% people have Lynch syndrome now in America.B. We can tell exactly how many people have had the surgery.C. Lynch Syndrome International helps people with Lynch syndrome only.D. People with Lynch syndrome will be forced to have the surgery.40. The main purpose of the passage is to _________.A. persuade people with Lynch syndrome to have a surgeryB. introduce Lynne Fisher and the disease she developedC. tell us something about the Lynch syndrome and its effect on our healthD. introduce Lynch syndrome to us and tell us that a surgery can save livesDIt turns out that nodding off in class may not be such a bad idea after all, as a new study has shown that going to sleep shortly after learning new material is the best way to remember it.According to US lead author Jessica Payne, a psychologist at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, nodding off after learni ng something new is like ‘telling’ the sleeping brain what to keep in memory. Along with colleagues, she studied 207 students who habitually slept for at least six hours per night. Participants were randomly assigned to study declarative, semantically related or unrelated word pairs at 9 a.m. or 9 p.m., and returned for testing 30 minutes, 12 hours and 24 hours later. Declarative memory refers to the ability to consciously remember facts and events, and can be broken down into episodic memory (memory for events) and semantic memory (memory for facts about the world). People routinely use both types of memory every day –recalling where we parked today or learning how a colleague prefers to be addressed. At the 12-hour retest, memory overall was superior following a night of sleep compared to a day of wakefulness. At the 24-hour retest, with all subjects having received both a full night of sleep and a full day of wakefulness, subjects’ memories were superior when sleep occurred shortly after learning, rather than following a full day of wakefulness.“Our study confirms that sleeping directly after learning something new is beneficial for memory. What’s novel about this study is that we tried to shine light on sleep’s influence on both types of declarative me mory by studying semantically unrelated and related word pairs”, Payne said. “Since we found that sleeping soon after learning benefited both types of memory, this means that it would be a good thing to rehearse any information you need to remember just before going to bed. In some sense, you may be “telling” the sleeping brain what to consolidate (巩固).”41. What does the underlined phrase nodding off mean?A. Going to sleep.B. Arguing with othersC. Asking questions.D. Answering questions.42. How many times will the participants tested?A. At least onceB. At least twiceC. At least three timesD. At least four times43. What can we infer from the passage about the study?A. Jessica Payne carried out the study all by herself.B. The 207 students were forced to sleep at least six hours per night.C. Participants were asked to memorize things according to strict rules.D. Participants could memorize what they learnt right before they slept best.44. What would Payne advise us to do?A. Memorize things after we have a good sleep.B. Memorize things just before our sleep.C. All the students go to sleep in class.D. Memorize things at mid-night.45. The text is most probably a _________.A. science reportB. book reviewC. science fiction storyD. newspaper advertisement.信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读以下英国牛津大学出版社的图书信息,并按要求匹配信息。
