He founded and was head of Microsoft for years.Gates was born into a rich family in the state of Washington. His father was a lawyer; his mother was a banker. He is famous for being taken as the father of the modern computer. He studied at Harvard University but did not graduate because of his desire to develop new software.As a 13yearold student, Gates was introduced to computer programming. In 1975, Gates spoke to a company called Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS). He convinced the owner of the company that he had written a program that would work well and make big money. The owner bought into Gates inventions, and the two men reached an agreement to develop software for the company. Then the Microsoft Company was born. Gates went on to develop the Windows operating system with then partner IBM. The two companies had differences though, and their partnership ended quickly. Gates worked as CEO until 2000. He remained active with the company for several years before leaving the company in 2008. In 2014, Bill Gates became the technical advisor of the firm.第二部分阅读理解(满分40分，限时35分钟)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。ADear Editor，Please publish more articles about women scientists. Women scientists have made outstanding contributions to the world. These women make excellent role models. More young women may choose science as a profession if women read featured articles on female scientists like Marie Curie and Rachel Carson. Both women were encouraged to study science, and they both accomplished great things.With her fathers encouragement, Marie Curie made the world a better place through her scientific accomplishments. She studied the emission (放射) of rays from uranium (铀), a feature she called “radioactivity (放射性)”. Later, Curie and her husband, also a scientist, processed the mineral pitchblende before separating two radioactive elements (元素). With this discovery, Marie Curie earned her doctorate, and shortly thereafter, both she and her husband were awarded the 1903 Nobel Prize in physics. In 1911 Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for her work with the newly discovered elements; this work laid the foundation for Xrays and atomic physics.When Rachel Carson was young, her mother encouraged her to study nature. As an adult, she became known as the mother of the modern environmental movement. After studying marine biology and zoology in college, Carson worked as a government scientist and wrote several books on how all living things relate to each other. In 1951 her book The Sea Around Us made scientific knowledge about the sea accessible to the general reader and remained on the bestseller list for eightysix weeks. In 1962 Carson wrote Silent Spring, a book that helped lead to improvements in the use of chemical pesticides (农药)Humans have benefited greatly from the work of Marie Curie and Rachel Carson. What if these women had not been encouraged to become scientists? I believe that we need to encourage young women to enter the field of science. With that goal in mind, I sincerely hope your magazine can publish more articles about the contributions that women make to science.Sincerely，Annie Bastien, Grade 7Capistrano Middle School语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。作者在信中建议杂志编辑多刊登一些关于女性科学家的文章，以鼓励更多女性从事科学。21According to the text, Marie Curie _.Aachieved success with her fathers helpBseparated two radioactive elements aloneCmade contributions to the study of XraysDwon the Nobel Prize twice with her husband解析：选C细节理解题。由第二段中的“this work laid the foundation for Xrays and atomic physics”可知，玛丽居里的工作为研究X射线和原子物理奠定了基础。22What can we learn about Rachel Carson?AShe was a physicist and chemist.BHer books had a great influence on the public.CShe was inspired by her father to become a scientist.DHer role as an environmentalist was rarely known by people.解析：选B细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“her book The Sea Around Us made scientific knowledge about the sea . a book that helped lead to improvements in the use of chemical pesticides(农药)”可知，雷切尔卡逊所著的两本书对大众都产生了很大的影响。23What can we infer about the author?AShe aims to become a scientist.BShe likes reading and writing stories.CShe has a great interest in women scientists.DShe wants to publish articles in the magazine.解析：选C推理判断题。由最后一段中的“I believe that we need to encourage young women to enter the field of science”可知，作者对女性科学家的故事很感兴趣。BEinstein was not only the outstanding scientist of the 20th century, but also a gifted and enthusiastic musician. He once said that had he not been a scientist, he would have been a musician. “Life without playing music is unthinkable for me，” he said. “I live my daydreams in music. I get most joy in life out of music.”Einsteins mother, Pauline, was a talented pianist who brought music to life in the family home. Einstein began to learn the violin at the age of 6. However, he worked hard until discovering the joys of Mozarts sonatas (奏鸣曲) at the age of 13. From that point on, although he had no further lessons, his violin remained his companion (伴侣)When Einstein moved to Aarau in Switzerland in 1895 to complete his schooling, he seemed to have devoted a good deal of his time to music. Just before his 17th birthday Einstein played at a music examination in the school. The examiner reported that “a student called Einstein shone in a deeply felt performance of one of the Beethoven sonatas”. In addition to his great skill in playing the violin, he also played the piano and, in particular, loved to improvise (即兴创作)In later life, Einsteins reputation as a physicist often led to invitations to perform at benefit concerts, which he generally accepted happily. At one such event, a critic not knowing Einsteins real reputation as a physicist wrote, “Einstein plays excellently. However, his worldwide reputation is undeserved. There are many violinists who are just as good.”Probably the summary of Einstein the violinist that comes nearest to the mark comes from his friend Janos Plesch, who wrote, “There are many musicians with much better skills, but none, I believe, who ever played with more sincerity or deeper feeling.”语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了物理学家爱因斯坦对音乐的热爱与投入。24We learn from Paragraph 1 that Einstein _.Ahad a great love for musicBenjoyed daydreaming in musicChad stopped playing music for a whileDpreferred to be a musician rather than a scientist解析：选A推理判断题。由第一段中的“a gifted and enthusiastic musician”和爱因斯坦所说的话可知，爱因斯坦非常热爱音乐。25After discovering the joys of Mozarts sonatas, Einstein _.Abegan to create his own musicBspent a lot of time playing his violinCstarted learning the piano by himselfDmoved to Switzerland to learn the violin解析：选B细节理解题。由第二段中的“From that point on, although he had no further lessons, his violin remained his companion(伴侣)”可知，爱因斯坦在13岁时发现莫扎特奏鸣曲的乐趣，从那时开始，小提琴一直陪伴他左右。26What can we infer from Paragraph 3?AEinstein did excellently in the examination.BEinsteins life in Aarau affected his musical taste.CEinsteins performance disappointed the examiner.DEinstein practiced the Beethoven sonatas for his birthday.解析：选A推理判断题。由第三段中的“The examiner reported thata student called Einstein shone in a deeply felt performance of one of the Beethoven sonatas”可知，考官对爱因斯坦在考试中的表现赞赏有加。27By mentioning the critics words, the author probably wants to show _.AEinstein didnt live up to his reputationBEinstein was also an outstanding violinistCEinstein played better than professional violinistsDEinstein wished there would be more benefit concerts解析：选B推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“Einstein plays excellently. However, his worldwide reputation is undeserved. There are many violinists who are just as good.”可知，爱因斯坦是名出色的小提琴家。CWhen a golfer plays on any golf course, he or she expects the course has a lot of hazards (障碍区) like sands, woods, and ponds of water. There is one special golf course, though, where along with these hazards that stand still, the player must expect to compete against hundreds of moving hazards. The golf course is on Christmas Island. The island is an area of Australia in the Indian Ocean, the third largest ocean in the world, lying between Africa and Australia. The moving hazards are bright red, fourandonehalfinch (11.4cm) crabs (螃蟹). Over 150 million of these brightly colored crabs live in the islands rainforests. Every year, starting around November, the crabs migrate (迁移). They leave the rainforest and make their way to the ocean. They arrive at the coast after one to three weeks. But the males (雄性) return to the rainforest earlier than the females, who return about two weeks later after producing up to 100,000 eggs.On Christmas Island there is a golf course built on the crabs migration route. During the migration season, there are hundreds of red crabs moving on the course. The rules of the Christmas Island Golf Club say that all players must treat the crabs as they would treat any other hazard. They cannot move them, and they must play around them. If a walking crab happens to knock a ball while it is on the green, hitting it into a hole, the ball is considered “in”Just_as_the_golfers_must_compete_against_a_moving_hazard,_so_must_the_crabs. People have built roads that run through the crabs migration route. Unluckily, up to two million crabs are killed by passing vehicles every year. People are trying to reduce the number by putting up “Crab Crossing” signs and closing certain roads during the migration season.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。在澳大利亚的圣诞岛上，一个高尔夫球场上有一些特殊的障碍区红蟹。28What do we learn about the red crabs?AThey arrive in the rainforest in November.BThey spend most of their year in the ocean.CThe females spend two more weeks on the coast.DThe males start to migrate earlier than the females.解析：选C细节理解题。由第二段中的“the females, who return about two weeks later after producing up to 100,000 eggs”可知，雌性红蟹在海岸上多停留两周，故选C项。29The rules of the Christmas Island Golf Club _.Aattract more golf playersBcan help protect the crabsCoften make golfers confusedDcause the crabs much trouble解析：选B推理判断题。由第三段中的“They cannot move them, and they must play around them.”可知，该高尔夫球俱乐部的这些规则有助于保护红蟹，故选B项。30By saying “Just as the golfers . so must the crabs”， the author means _.Athe crabs must face danger on the roadBthe crabs are quite perfect moving hazardsCgolfers like competing against moving hazardsDgolfers find it hard to play on Christmas Island解析：选A推理判断题。由最后一段中的“People have built roads that run through the crabs migration route. Unluckily, up to two million crabs are killed by passing vehicles every year”可知，螃蟹们的迁徙路线要经过马路，所以每年大约有两百万只螃蟹会被过往的车辆轧死，由此可见它们必须面对路上的危险，故选A项。31Which can be the best title for the text?AChristmas IslandBGreat migrationCCrab CrossingDCrab hazards解析：选D标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了一个高尔夫球场上的一些特殊的障碍区红蟹，故用D项作标题最恰当。DDo you have imagination? Do you like to solve problems? Can you? If so, you could be th
