Five women go on a hike. Only four return.

Jane Harper.BCatherine Yeo was three years old when she discovered Sudoku(数独) puzzles at the back of magazines and newspapers. She would compete against her mother to see who could fill in the empty cells in the shortest time, often defeating her mother. Soon she developed an interest in math and technology.The 16-year-old from San Jose is currently in her second year at Stanford Online High School, unique for its virtual environment. “Many of my classmates live across the globe, so it’s fascinating to hear diverse viewpoints during our class discussions,” says Yeo. The courses at her school are extremely challenging, but being at an online school allows her to have time to carry out her own projects. Now, Yeo is leading Pixelhacks, a 24-hour hackathon(编程马拉松) for female high school students.Yeo had never seen a men’s bathroom line five times longer than the women’s bathroom line until she attended the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in 2016. In other public places like airports, theaters and restaurants, it was always the opposite. The great gender ratio (性别比例) difference opened her eyes. “Most computer science classes and robotics teams only had a few girls and the hackathons I attended were occupied by male students,” says Yeo. Out of every 200 hackathon attendees, only anaverage of 15 percent were female. Yeo had helped with local Girls Who Code clubs and organized free coding (编程) workshops at a public library for middle school students. But WWDC made her realize that wasn’t enough. She took action to introduce many girls in her community to the fun, creative side of technology. Eight months later, she stood in front of over 70 young women who were eager to learn to create applications.For two years, Yeo organized Pixelhacks, Northern California’s first all-female high school hackathon where attendees(在场参与者) work together to create a technology project in a limited amount of time. Yeo founded it to expose girls to technology and help them build confidence and acquire fundamental skills. She invited female industry experts to teach all attendees and speak about their experiences. Yeo marketed the event to high schools across the San Francisco Bay Area, especially low-income schools. Right after Pixelhacks I, Yeo saw many familiar faces from Pixelhacks I at other local hackathons and tech events. A mother of a Pixelhacks II attendee said she had hoped her daughter could meet new friends and develop an interest in computer science at Yeo’s hackathon. After the event, she was shocked to hear that her daughter decided to make a career in programming.Being able to observe the influence of her work on so many girls and seeing their interest in computing and technology grow is Yeo’s proudest achievement, Yeo strongly believes that all women are equally talented in technological abilities. The problem of the great gender inequality(性别不平等) lies in the lack of exposure to programming and engineering for many young women. Having access to opportunities to learn about technology can greatly increase a young woman’s interest andconfidence in her skills. “it’s also extremely important to find your teachers and community,” says Yeo. “I’m extremely gr ateful for the many women in the computer industry who have helped me with my project.”24. What does Catherine Yeo like about her school?A. Its focus on technology.B. Its great global influence.C. Its atmosphere of flexibility.D. Its high percentage of girls.25. What gave Catherine Yeo the idea to start Pixelhacks?A. Courses she once took at her school.B. Her great interest in math and technology.C. The lack of bathrooms in some public places.D. The low attendance of girls in a scientific event.26. What problem do girls face when learning about technology?A. It’s hard for them to find qualified teachers.B. They have no interest in technology.C. Limited opportunities are offered to them.D. They are usually poor in mathematics.27. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Pixelhacks helps poor girl with programmingB. This talented girl is devoted to technical projectsC. There is a gender inequality in the tech industryD. This 16-year-old started her own hackathon for girlsCSkyscrapers(摩天大楼) are the symbol of urban life. City people are used to seeing tall buildings and apartments. Farms, on the other hand, are associated with rural(农村的) life. However, there are experts who think skyscrapers should become farms to meet the increasing food needs.By the middle of this century,some scientists suggest,almost 80% of the earth’s population could live in cities. In addition,the population could increase to 9.1 billion people during that time yet the amount of land available for farming will be the same. If current farming practices don’t change,we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.Vertical(垂直的) farms, where urban farmers could grow crops in environmentally friendly skyscrapers, could be the solution. In spite of concerns over high costs, experts want to make it a reality and use these skyscrapers to grow crops.Vertical farms would have many advantages, supporters say. Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases. Besides, crops would not suffer from problems like flooding. Finally,vertical farms would reduce the cost and negative effects of transporting food over long distances.Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlight during the day,it wouldn’t be enough. For this reason,vertical farms would need additional light sources(来源), such as artificial light.Another way of growing fresh food is to build urban farms on rooftops. This more practical approach may be more achievable than the idea of farms in skyscrapers, researchers suggest. Experts agree that innovative(革新的) farming practices are needed to support the need for more food at affordable costs, both to the farmer and to the consumer, but the best ideas could be yet to come.28. What primary problem could vertical farming settle?A. Poor state of rural life.B. Shortage of food supply.C. High cost for transporting crops.D. Environmental pollution by transitional farmings.29. What is the advantage ofvertical farming?A. It can produce organic food.B. It requires little care.C. It can benefit transport industry.D. It needs very low cost. 30. What is a big challenge to make vertical farming a reality?A. Farmable land.B. Crop diseases.C. Light sources.D. Climate conditions. 31. What can be the best title of the test?A. Future Food NeedsB. Symbol of Urban LifeC. Farming on RooftopsD. Farms of the FutureDNearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching anddevelopingartificialintelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can helpfarmers save time and money, whilereducingenvironment-harming chemicals.One of the companies is ecoRobotix of SwitzerLand. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry it through the fields in searchofweeds.Computer-controlled arms thenlower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide(除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smart-phone.The co-founder of ecoRobotix, Aurelien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times 1ess herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right amount of chemical in the exactplace required to kill the weeds. Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants.Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called “See & Spray”, which it claims was the world’s first smart sprayer. The system —which connects to the back of a tractor(拖拉机) — is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice-president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. “The first time the machine saw a pigweed, it didn’t know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it — by giving it tens of thousands of examples of that pigweed —and now it’s an expert in pigwe ed.”32. How will AI benefit agriculture?A. It will fund agriculture research.B. It contributes to low-cost farming.C. It can avoid harmful chemicals.D. It frees all farmers from field work.33. What do the products of the two companies have in common?A. They use recognition technology.B. They are powered by solar energy.C. They are connected with smart phones.D. They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.34. What do Ben Chostner’s words suggest about the robot?A. It is environmentally-friendly.B. It is good at self-improving.C. It has the learning ability.D. It can track various plants.35. What is mainly talked about in the text？A. The experiment in farming robots.B. New trend in artificial intelligence.C. Modern See & Spray technology.D. Artificial intelligence in agriculture.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。

In the coming days, the museum will display all the items found in the whale’s system.Blatchley and his team work with the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources and other organizations to assist in rescue and recovery of marine animals.“Within the last 10 years, we have recovered 61 whales and dolphins just within the Davao Gulf,” he said. “Of them, 57 have died due to man — whether they took plastic or fishing nets or other waste, or gotten caught in pollution — and four were pregnant.”Blatchley said he hoped that the latest incident would launch the issue of plastic pollution in the Philippines and across the globe. “If we keep going this way, it will be more uncommon to see an animal die of natural causes than it is to see an animal die of plastic,” he said.24. What can be inferred from the second paragraph?A. The whale was starved to death.B. Blatchley was shocked at what he found.C. The dead whale must have swallowed a baseball.D. Blatchley didn’t make preparations for the necropsy.25. What will be shown in the D’ Bone Collector Museum?A. Waste collected from the ocean.B. The whole system of the whale.C. Things found in the whale’s body.D. Many different tools of whaling.26. What does Blatchley think of plastic pollution in the Philippines?A. Uncommon.B. Worrying.C. Inspiring.D. Mild27. What is the best title for the text?A. A Whale Found Dead of PlasticB. Stand Up for Protecting WhalesC. Plastic Threatening Our ExistenceD. Natural Death or Merciless MurderCA video of a three-year-old girl being kicked by her own mother during a photo shot went viral(疯狂传播)on Thursday, indicating China’s underperformance in regulating the emerging child modeling industry.The girl, known as Niu Niu, was physically abused by her mother in several videos. The videos have annoyed Chinese media and Internet users alike. Many netizens and scholars call for local authorities to carry out further investigations into possible child abuse.In response to the public outcry(强烈抗议), Niu Niu’s mother issued an apology via Sina Weibo on Thursday, condemning accusations of abuse. She noted that she was merely guiding her daughter for better shots and the girl is well looked after.Despite her apology, many E-shops which used Niu Niu’s images for brandpromotion have canceled their cooperation with the mother, while over 110 well-known child garment shops on Taobao have signed up for a campaign to provide better protection for child models.“It is necessary to adopt comprehensive laws and regulations to furthe r protect the kids, preventing their parents and companies from exploiting(利用)them,” Fang Zhiqing, a lawyer and child protection expert, said.Niu Niu is not alone. In Zhili, a small town in Zhejiang province, thousands of children from across China are taken here by their parents to seize the chance of fame. With a population of 450,000, Zhili has over 13,o00manufacturers of child clothing. In 2017, the town earned over 7 billion yuan by selling clothing for children online, thus providing opportunities for child models.“China’s current advertisement law isn’t workable when it comes to the industry of child modeling, as it lacks clear supervision measures and clear legal punishment,” Fang added, “It is important to issue new laws which regulate child modeling.”28. What caused the public outcry?A. Videos showing how child models work.B. Problems in Chinese advertising industry.C. Several cases of child abuse in recent China.D. A girl being physically abused by her mother.29. What happened after the public outcry?A. Taobao canceled the account of Niu Niu.B. The local police charged Niu Niu’s mother.C.

China should regulate child modeling.B. There are too many child models in China.C. New economic laws should be issued in China.D. China’s current advertisement law isn’t workable.DIf you wear glasses, chances are you are smarter. Research published in the famous British journal Nature Communications has found that people who displayed higher levels of intelligence were almost 30 percent more likely to wear glasses.The scientists studied the genes of thousands of people between the ages of 16 and 102. The study showed intelligence can be connected to physical characteristics. One characteristic was eyesight. In 3 out of 10 people who were more intelligent, there was a higher chance they needed glasses. Scientists also said being smarter has other benefits. It is connected to better health.It is important to remember these are connections which are not proven causes. Scientists call this correlation. Just because something is connected to something else does not mean one of those things caused the other. And it’s wor th noting that whatconstitutes intelligence is subjective and can be difficult, if not impossible, to measure.Forget genes though. Plenty of proof shows wearing glasses makes people think you are more intelligent, even if you do not need glasses. A number of studies have found people who wear glasses are seen as smarter, hard-working and honest. Many lawyers use this idea to help win their cases. Lawyer Harvey Slovis explained this. “Glasses soften their appearance,” he said. Sometimes there has been a h uge amount of proof showing that people he was defending broke the law. He had them wear glasses and they weren’t found guilty.Glasses are also used to show someone is intelligent in movies and on TV. Ideas about people who wear glasses have begun to shift. People who do not need glasses sometimes wear them for fashion only. They want to look worldly or cool. But not everyone is impressed by this idea, though. GQ magazine said people who wear glasses for fashion are trying too hard to look smart and hip(时髦的). However, that hasn’t stopped many celebrities from happily wearing glasses even if they do not need them. Justin Bieber is just one high-profile fan of fashion glasses.32. What does the new study show?A. People wearing glasses are smarter.B. People wearing glasses are healthier.C. Wearing glasses can make people cleverer.D. Wearing glasses is associated with higher IQ.33. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean?A. ShiftB. LinkC. ProofD. Consequence.34. Why do some lawyers ask their clients to wear glasses in court?A. Because it can create a moral image.B. Because it can mislead the witnesses.C. Because it can highlight clients’ qualities.D. Because it can prove the clients’ innocence.35. What is the general attitude to those who wear glasses for fashion?A. Positive.B. Negative.C. MixedD. Indifferent.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。

If you want to buy all different editions of a book, which one will cost you most?A. Fresh water.B. Milk and Honey.C. Educated.D. Force of Nature.23. Which author tells readers various feelings or emotions of personal life in his/her book?A. Akwaeke Emezi.B. Rupi Kaur.C. Tara Westover.D. Jane Harper.BCatherine Yeo was three years old when she discovered Sudoku(数独) puzzles at the back of magazines and newspapers. She would compete against her mother to see who could fill in the empty cells in the shortest time, often defeating her mother. Soon she developed an interest in math and technology.The 16-year-old from San Jose is currently in her second year at Stanford Online High Sch ool, unique for its virtual environment. “Many of my classmates live across the globe,so it’s fascinating to hear diverse viewpoints during our class discussions,” says Yeo. The courses at her school are extremely challenging, but being at an online school allows her to have time to carry out her own projects. Now, Yeo is leading Pixelhacks, a 24-hour hackathon(编程马拉松) for female high school students.Yeo had never seen a men’s bathroom line five times longer than the women’s bathroom line until she attended the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in 2016. In other public places like airports, theaters and restaurants, it was always the opposite. The great gender ratio (性别比例) difference opened her eyes. “Most computer science classes and robotics teams only had a few girls and the hackathons I attended were occupied by male students,” says Yeo. Out of every 200 hackathon attendees, only an average of 15 percent were female. Yeo had helped with local Girls Who Code clubs and organized free coding (编程) workshops at a public library for middle school students. But WWDC made her realize that wasn’t enough. She took action to introduce many girls in her community to the fun, creative side of technology. Eight months later, she stood in front of over 70 young women who were eager to learn to create applications.For two years, Yeo organized Pixelhacks, Northern California’s first all-female high school hackathon where attendees(在场参与者) work together to create a technology project in a limited amount of time. Yeo founded it to expose girls to technology and help them build confidence and acquire fundamental skills. She invited female industry experts to teach all attendees and speak about their experiences. Yeo marketed the event to high schools across the San Francisco Bay Area, especially low-income schools. Right after Pixelhacks I, Yeo saw many familiar faces from Pixelhacks I at other local hackathons and tech events.A mother of a Pixelhacks II attendee said she had hoped her daughter could meet new friends and develop an interest in computer science at Yeo’s hackathon. After the event, she was shocked to hear that her daughter decided to make a career in programming.Being able to observe the influence of her work on so many girls and seeing their interest in computing and technology grow is Yeo’s proudest achievement, Yeo strongly believes that all women are equally talented in technological abilities. The problem of the great gender inequality(性别不平等) lies in the lack of exposure to programming and engineering for many young women. Having access to opportunities to learn about technology can greatly increase a young woman’s interest and confidence in her skills. “it’s also extremely important to find your teachers and community,” says Yeo. “I’m extremely gr ateful for the many women in the computer industry who have helped me with my project.”24. What does Catherine Yeo like about her school?A. Its focus on technology.B. Its great global influence.C. Its atmosphere of flexibility.D. Its high percentage of girls.25. What gave Catherine Yeo the idea to start Pixelhacks?A. Courses she once took at her school.B. Her great interest in math and technology.C. The lack of bathrooms in some public places.D. The low attendance of girls in a scientific event.26. What problem do girls face when learning about technology?A. It’s hard for them to find qualified teachers.B. They have no interest in technology.C. Limited opportunities are offered to them.D. They are usually poor in mathematics.27. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Pixelhacks helps poor girl with programmingB. This talented girl is devoted to technical projectsC. There is a gender inequality in the tech industryD. This 16-year-old started her own hackathon for girlsCSkyscrapers(摩天大楼) are the symbol of urban life. City people are used to seeing tall buildings and apartments. Farms, on the other hand, are associated with rural(农村的) life. However, there are experts who think skyscrapers should become farms to meet the increasing food needs.By the middle of this century, some scientists suggest, almost 80% of the earth’s population could live in cities. In addition, the population could increase to 9.1 billion people during that time yet the amount of land available for farming will be the same. If current farming practices don’t change, we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.Vertical(垂直的) farms, where urban farmers could grow crops in environmentally friendly skyscrapers, could be the solution. In spite of concerns over high costs, experts want to make it a reality and use these skyscrapers to grow crops.Vertical farms would have many advantages, supporters say. Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases. Besides, crops would not suffer from problems like flooding. Finally, vertical farms would reduce the cost and negative effects of transporting food over long distances.Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlight during the day, it wouldn’t be enough. For this reason, vertical farms would need additional light sources(来源), such as artificial light.Another way of growing fresh food is to build urban farms on rooftops. This more practical approach may be more achievable than the idea of farms in skyscrapers, researchers suggest. Experts agree that innovative(革新的) farming practices are needed to support the need for more food at affordable costs, both to the farmer and to the consumer, but the best ideas could be yet to come.28. What primary problem could vertical farming settle?A. Poor state of rural life.B. Shortage of food supply.C. High cost for transporting crops.D. Environmental pollution by transitional farmings.29. What is the advantage of vertical farming?A. It can produce organic food.B. It requires little care.C. It can benefit transport industry.D. It needs very low cost.30. What is a big challenge to make vertical farming a reality?A. Farmable land.B. Crop diseases.C. Light sources.D. Climate conditions.31. What can be the best title of the test?A. Future Food NeedsB. Symbol of Urban LifeC. Farming on RooftopsD. Farms of the FutureDNearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals.One of the companies is ecoRobotix of SwitzerLand. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry it through the fields in search of weeds. Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide(除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smart-phone.The co-founder of ecoRobotix, Aurelien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times 1ess herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right amount of chemical in the exact place required to kill the weeds. Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants.Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called “See & Spray”, which it claims was the world’s first smart sprayer. The system — which connects to the back of a tractor(拖拉机) — is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice-president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. “The first time the machine saw a pigweed, it didn’t know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it — by giving it tens of thousands of examples of that pigweed —and now it’s an expert in pigweed.”32. How will AI benefit agriculture?A. It will fund agriculture research.B. It contributes to low-cost farming.C. It can avoid harmful chemicals.D. It frees all farmers from field work.33. What do the products of the two companies have in common?A. They use recognition technology.B. They are powered by solar energy.C. They are connected with smart phones.D. They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.34. What do Ben Chostner’s words suggest about the robot?A. It is environmentally-friendly.B. It is good at self-improving.C. It has the learning ability.D. It can track various plants.35. What is mainly talked about in the text？A. The experiment in farming robots.B. New trend in artificial intelligence.C. Modern See & Spray technology.D. Artificial intelligence in agriculture.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。

AA freshly baked roll is as delightful as a soft, light cloud on a summer’s day. What gives bread much of its appealing texture is gluten(麸质), a group of proteins found in wheat. But in people with celiac disease(乳糜泻), gluten damages the small intestine(肠). Many others may have milder gluten intolerance and avoid foods that contain it.Most gluten-free bread is made from alternative flours such as rice or potato, so ittastes and feels different from wheat bread. Now, however, researchers say that they havefound a way to genetically engineer wheat that contains far less of the most troublesometype of gluten — but still has other proteins that give bread its characteristic taste and springiness.Genetically modified crops are the subject of fierce debate around the world. Thebiggest concern involves the practice of inserting DNA from one species into another, saysFrancisco Barro, a plant biotechnologist. To avoid this genetic crossover, Barro and hiscolleagues used the gene-editing technique CRISPR ／Cas9 to cut selected genes from a wheatgenome(基因组).Their study zeroed in on alpha-gliadins(α-胶质蛋白), gluten proteins believed to bewheat’s major troublemakers in the immune s ystem. The researchers designed bits of genetic material that directed the scissor-like Cas9 protein to cut out 35 of the 45 alpha-gliadin genes.When the modified wheat was tested in a Petri dish, it produced an 85 percent weaker immune response, the team reported online last September in Plant Biotechnology Journal. Wendy Harwood, a crop geneticist at the John Innes Center in England, who was not part of the study, notes that the engineered wheat has a long way to go before it can be turned into anything m arketable. “I don’t think it’s the end of the story.” she says. “This is just a really important step in maybe producing something that is going to be incredibly useful.” To develop a completely safe strain of wheat for celiac patients，the researchers may need to target more of the gluten genes. Barro says his team is working on that. 21. What’s the text mainly about? A. Making gluten-free bread. B. Advantages of gluten-free wheat. C. Debate about genetically modified crops. D. Developing genetically engineered wheat. 22. Why is bread mentioned in paragraph 1? A. To advertise a new study. B. To raise the topic to be written about. C. To provide some advice for the readers. D. To popularize some information about medicine. 23. What concerns people most according to paragraph 3? A. Genetic crossover. B. Gene-editing technique. C. The practice of using DNA. D. The subject of fierce debate. 24. What’s Wendy Harwood’s attitude towards engineered wheat? A. A little alarmed. B. Mildly surprised. C. Somewhat opposed. D. Cautiously optimistic. B British Women Writers in different periods of time The English Renaissance The English Renaissance began in the later part of the fifteenth century and lasted until the 1660s. Among the most famous women writers of this period is Aphra Behn, who is seen as the first professional woman writer in English. Aphra Behn’s works include also 此卷只装订不密封 班级姓名准考证号考场号座位号the plays The Amourous Prince, The Town Fop, The Dutch Lover and her only tragedy, Abdelazer.The neoclassical periodAmong the well-known women in British literature during the neoclassical period, from 1660 to the end of the eighteenth century, is Anne Finch. She wrote poetry and tried to express all that she saw and experienced. Another woman was recognized for her contribution to neoclassical British literature: Mary Astell. Mary Astell was a philosopher and a feminist writer. She is best known now for her theories on the education of women.The Romantic periodJane Austen is one of the most famous women writers that worked during the Romantic period (1798-1832). Her works include several novels, most of which focus on marriage as a way for young women to secure social standing and economic security. Her most famous novels are Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility and Emma.The Victorian periodThe Victorian period, between the 1830s and 1900, was the time when the Bronte sisters, George Eliot and Elizabeth Gaskell lived and wrote. Charlotte Bronte, Emily Bronte and Anne Bronte produced many British literary classics. Mary Anne Evans adopted the male pen name George as she wanted to set herself apart from the feminine genre(女性主义流派) of cookbooks and domestic moral tales. Her most famous novel is The Mill on the Floss published in 1860.25. According to the passage, Aphra Behn was famous for ________.A. novelsB. poetryC. playsD. cookbooks26. According to the passage, why did Mary Anne Evans publish her stories under the name of George Eliot?A. Women were forbidden to write novels then.B. Her works would be different.C. It helped promote her works.D. It sounded more popular.27. If a reade r is interested in women’s education, whose works can be the best choice?A. Anne Finch’s.B. Mary Astell’s.C. Mary Wortley Montagu’s.D. Mary Shelley’s.CRegardless of how far we’d like to believe gender(性别) equality in the workplace has come, there’s still a yawning gap between male and female leaders in the professional world.A 2018 statistic shows that women nowadays hold just 5.8 percent of CEOs positions at S&P 500 companies, according to Catalyst.While it’s not a huge shock that women are somewhat underrepresented in leadership positions, what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in almost every area, at least according to new findings from the BI Norwegian Business School.In their research, Professor Oyvind L. Martinsen and Professor Lars Glas surveyed (调查) 2,900 managers with a special focus on personality types. The results were clear: Women scored higher than men in four of the five major leadership-centric categories.While some people believe that men inherently make better leaders —probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice, which is more typical of men than women —this piece of research suggests that women are better at methodical management and goal-setting, openness, sociability and supportiveness, as well as ability to communicate clearly.There was one area in which men scored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional stability and ability to face job-related pressure and stress. The results suggest that women are more sensitive to the effects of high-pressure or highly emotional situations.Obviously, it’s important to consider individual (个人的) differences. Anyone, regardless of gender, may be an inspiring leader and a competent boss. But next time you’re hiring for a management position, you just might want to give the resumes (简历) from female candidates a harder look.28. What makes us shocked much at leadership positions?A. Women are worse than men.B. Men take almost all high positions.C. There is a huge gap between genders.D. Women might behave better in nearly every field.29. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “inherently” in Paragraph 4?A. properlyB. potentiallyC. naturallyD. normally30. Which of the following may be the best title of this text?A. How We Can Figure Out The Boss2B. Why Women Are Better Than MenC. Why Women Make The Best BossesD. How We Can Tell Gender Difference31. Who might have special interest in this article?A. Job hunters.B. Employers.C. Employees.D. Male bosses.DUniversity of New South Wales has launched its new 12-month Women in Maths & Science Champions Program designed to give women the skills and confidence to build their public recognition and set up a connected network of women in maths and science. The first group of 30 female PhD students started in August this year, and the second group of 19 early-career researchers was formally announced yesterday.Over the 12 months, the champions complete at least 20 hours of related activities as part of a community of representatives who will influence and inspire women to pursue a career in maths and science. The activities are varied, ranging from visiting schools and conducting science presentations, to attending conferences and creating content for social media. At th e end of the program, PhD champions have the chance to apply everything they’ve learned to the Postgraduate Research Competition. Above all, participating is a requirement for program completion.Rose O’Dea, a member of the first group, is a PhD candidate at the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences. She said, “I’m excited about the opportunity to work with school children. I hope to inspire some girls so they see not all scientists are older men in lab coals and that science is quite diverse and means different things depending on who you are.”Dr. Mariana Mayer Pinto is an early-career researcher at the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences, where she mainly works with marine(海洋的) ecologists. She is originally from Brazil and said that being a woman from a developing country meant she knew the struggles that lack of role models can create. “You can’t be what you can’t see!I always have the hope that I can change the world bit by bit, and if one little girl says she can become a scientist because I talked to them, that’d be awesome, and that would make everything worth it.”32. What is the program intended to do?A. Test female PhD’s learning results.B. Promote the equality of men and women.C. Set up an organization for women scientists.D. Improve women’s participation in math and science.33. What is required if a participant want to complete the program?A. To persuade as least one female to take up science.B. To participate in at least 20 hours of related activities.C. To apply what they have learnt to their graduation paper.D. To work as a representative to give presentations.34. What does Rose O’Dea think about science?A. Varied.B. Inspiring.C. Unchangeable.D. Exciting.35. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph?A. To share how family background matters.B. To show the overall(全面的) results of this program.C. To add an example of how a participant(参与者) feels.D. To tell of role models to encourage female students.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。

A 参见上题解析.notice“注意到”；record“记录”；remember“记得”；track“跟踪”.11．C 根据上文中的“the music of the wind in my favorite pine tree”和下文中的“I seem now…to hear and see”可知，此处指的应是作者以前不会注意到的东西.play“轻快变幻的动作，闪烁”，the play of sunlight on water“阳光在水面上的闪烁”.12．B 作者重新找回了童年时期看待事物的新鲜感.recovered“重新获得的，重新找到的”，符合语境.13．C 比如，回想起自己卧床两年后重新踏上这片土地的感觉有多好.for instance“比如，例如”，符合语境.in contrast“相反”；in return“作为回报”；by chance“偶然地”.14．B 这就像在一个差点失去的世界中重新获得公民身份一样.regain“重新得到”和下文的“lost”相对应.maintain“维持”；discover“发现”；forget“忘记”.15．A 作者经常提醒自己要记下这个自己现在生活的时刻，因为活在此刻，作者是健康且快乐的，而且能做自己最喜欢做的事情.remind“提醒”，符合语境.promise“许诺，允诺”；convince“使相信”.16．B 参见上题解析.moment“时刻”；inspiration“灵感”.17．A 参见第15题解析.pleased“快乐的，高兴的”；courageous“勇敢的”；confident“自信的”；strong“坚强的”.下文中的“I'm wiser now，a little，and happier”亦是提示.18．D 它不会总是如这般存在，因此作者会充分利用它并心存感激.上下文之间是因果关系，故用therefore.meanwhile“与此同时”；otherwise“否则”；however“然而”.19．B 作者将这一切都归功于他卧病在床的那段漫长时光.owe...to...“把……归功于……”，是固定用法.***短文改错.Dear Tom，I'm Li Hua, a student of Rongguang Middle School. I learned quite by chance what you needed a book to improve your Chinese. I happen to have it, which I think might help you.The book, entitle New Practical Chinese, is intended for beginners at your level.

BCatherine Yeo was three years old when she discovered Sudoku(数独) puzzles at the back of magazines and newspapers. She would compete against her mother to see who could fill in the empty cells in the shortest time, often defeating her mother. Soon she developed an interest in math and technology.The 16-year-old from San Jose is currently in her second year at Stanford Online High School, unique for its virtual environment. “Many of my classmates live across the globe,此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号so it’s fascinating to hear diverse viewpoints during our class discussions,” says Yeo. The courses at her school are extremely challenging, but being at an online school allows her to have time to carry out her own projects. Now, Yeo is leading Pixelhacks, a 24-hour hackathon(编程马拉松) for female high school students.Yeo had never seen a men’s bathroom line five times longer than the women’s bathroom line until she attended the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in 2016. In other public places like airports, theaters and restaurants, it was always the opposite. The great gender ratio (性别比例) difference opened her eyes. “Most computer science classes and robotics teams only had a few girls and the hackathons I attended were occupied by male students,” says Yeo. Out of every 200 hackathon attendees, only an average of 15 percent were female. Yeo had helped with local Girls Who Code clubs and organized free coding (编程) workshops at a public library for middle school students. But WWDC made her realize that wasn’t enough. She took action to introduce many girls in her community to the fun, creative side of technology. Eight months later, she stood in front of over 70 young women who were eager to learn to create applications.For two years, Yeo organized Pixelhacks, Northern California’s first all-female high school hackathon where attendees(在场参与者) work together to create a technology project in a limited amount of time. Yeo founded it to expose girls to technology and help them build confidence and acquire fundamental skills. She invited female industry experts to teach all attendees and speak about their experiences. Yeo marketed the event to high schools across the San Francisco Bay Area, especially low-income schools. Right after Pixelhacks I, Yeo saw many familiar faces from Pixelhacks I at other local hackathons and tech events.A mother of a Pixelhacks II attendee said she had hoped her daughter could meet new friends and develop an interest in computer science at Yeo’s hackathon. After the event, she was shocked to hear that her daughter decided to make a career in programming.Being able to observe the influence of her work on so many girls and seeing their interest in computing and technology grow is Yeo’s proudest achievement, Yeo strongly believes that all women are equally talented in technological abilities. The problem of the great gender inequality(性别不平等) lies in the lack of exposure to programming and engineering for many young women. Having access to opportunities to learn about technology can greatly increase a young woman’s interest and confidence in her skills. “it’s also extremely important to find your teachers and community,” says Yeo. “I’m extremely grateful for the many women in the computer industry who have helped me with my project.”24. What does Catherine Yeo like about her school?A. Its focus on technology.B. Its great global influence.C. Its atmosphere of flexibility.D. Its high percentage of girls.25. What gave Catherine Yeo the idea to start Pixelhacks?A. Courses she once took at her school.B. Her great interest in math and technology.C. The lack of bathrooms in some public places.D. The low attendance of girls in a scientific event.26. What problem do girls face when learning about technology?A. It’s hard for them to find qualified teachers.B. They have no interest in technology.C. Limited opportunities are offered to them.D. They are usually poor in mathematics.27. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Pixelhacks helps poor girl with programmingB. This talented girl is devoted to technical projectsC. There is a gender inequality in the tech industryD. This 16-year-old started her own hackathon for girlsCSkyscrapers(摩天大楼) are the symbol of urban life. City people are used to seeing tall buildings and apartments. Farms, on the other hand, are associated with rural(农村的) life. However, there are experts who think skyscrapers should become farms to meet the increasing food needs.By the middle of this century, some scientists suggest, almost 80% of the earth’s population could live in cities. In addition, the population could increase to 9.1 billion people during that time yet the amount of land available for farming will be the same. If current farming practices don’t change, we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.Vertical(垂直的) farms, where urban farmers could grow crops in environmentally friendly skyscrapers, could be the solution. In spite of concerns over high costs, experts want to make it a reality and use these skyscrapers to grow crops.Vertical farms would have many advantages, supporters say. Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases. Besides, crops would not suffer from problems like flooding. Finally, vertical farms would reduce the cost and negative effects of transporting food over long distances.Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlight during the day, it wouldn’t be enough. For this reason, vertical farms would need additional light sources(来源), such as artificial light.Another way of growing fresh food is to build urban farms on rooftops. This more practical approach may be more achievable than the idea of farms in skyscrapers, researchers suggest. Experts agree that innovative(革新的) farming practices are needed to support the need for more food at affordable costs, both to the farmer and to the consumer, but the best ideas could be yet to come.28. What primary problem could vertical farming settle?A. Poor state of rural life.B. Shortage of food supply.C. High cost for transporting crops.D. Environmental pollution by transitional farmings.29. What is the advantage of vertical farming?A. It can produce organic food.B. It requires little care.C. It can benefit transport industry.D. It needs very low cost.30. What is a big challenge to make vertical farming a reality?A. Farmable land.B. Crop diseases.C. Light sources.D. Climate conditions.31. What can be the best title of the test?A. Future Food NeedsB. Symbol of Urban LifeC. Farming on RooftopsD. Farms of the FutureDNearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals.One of the companies is ecoRobotix of SwitzerLand. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry it through the fields in search of weeds. Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide(除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smart-phone.The co-founder of ecoRobotix, Aurelien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times 1ess herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right amount of chemical in the exact place required to kill the weeds. Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants.Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called “See & Spray”, which it claims was the world’s first smart sprayer. The system — which connects to the back of a tractor(拖拉机) — is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice-president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. “The first time the machine saw a pigweed, it didn’t know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it — by giving it tens of thousands of examples of that pigweed —and now it’s an expert in pigweed.”32. How will AI benefit agriculture?A. It will fund agriculture research.B. It contributes to low-cost farming.C. It can avoid harmful chemicals.D. It frees all farmers from field work.33. What do the products of the two companies have in common?A. They use recognition technology.B. They are powered by solar energy.C. They are connected with smart phones.D. They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.34. What do Ben Chostner’s words suggest about the robot?A. It is environmentally-friendly.B. It is good at self-improving.C. It has the learning ability.D. It can track various plants.35. What is mainly talked about in the text？A. The experiment in farming robots.B. New trend in artificial intelligence.C. Modern See & Spray technology.D. Artificial intelligence in agriculture.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。
