massachusetts institute of technology(mit)in the us，it might be leavesbut artificial(人造的)ones.natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy.it is known as photosynthesis(光合作用)now researchers have found a way to imitate this seemingly simple process.the artificial leaf developed by daniel nocera and his colleagues at mit can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts(催化剂)similar to natural leaves，it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water.the hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell，which uses those two materials to produce electricity，located either on top of a house or beside the house.though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card，scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries.“one can imagine villages in india and africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology，”said nocera at a conference of the american chemical society.the artificial leaf is not a new idea.the first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use.the new leaf，by contrast，is made of cheap materials，easy to use and highly stable.in laboratory studies，nocera showed that an artificial leaf prototype(原型)could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.the wonderful improvements come from noceras recent discovery of several powerful，new and inexpensive catalysts.these catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight.right now，the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one.besides，the device can run in whatever water is available；that is，it doesnt need pure water.this is important for some countries that dont have access to pure water.with the goal to “make each home its own power station” and “give energy to the poor”，scientists believe that the new technology could be widely used in developing countries，especially in india and rural china.【解题导语】 本文是一篇科普文。文章介绍了科学家利用人造树叶仿效光合作用进行发电这一新发明。16which of the following orders correctly shows how the artificial leaf is used to produce electricity?aartificial leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygenbthe hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cellcthe artificial leaves are put in waterdthe fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricityac，b，a，d bc，a，b，dcb，c，a，d dc，a，d，b答案b细节排序题。文章的第三段提到人造树叶发电的过程：先把它放在一桶水里，然后树叶将水分解为氢气和氧气，而氢气和氧气被存储于燃料电池里，随后电池利用氢气和氧气的反应发电。17which of the following statements about new artificial leaves is not wrong according to the article?athey are inexpensive but unstable.bthey are as efficient at carrying out photosynthesis as natural leaves.cthey can work only in pure water.dthey need several catalysts to help them work efficiently.答案d细节理解题。根据文章第六段中的“the wonderful improvements come from noceras recent discovery of several powerful，new and inexpensive catalysts.”可知，人造树叶发电能够更有效率的关键在于催化剂。18the purpose of the scientists at mit in developing the new artificial leaf is to_.abuild up more power stations in the worldbprovide cheaper energy for developing countriescoffer people in developing countries access to pure waterdgain a deeper understanding of the photosynthesis process答案b推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，人造树叶发电这一技术可以帮助发展中国家获得便宜的能源。19the main idea of this passage is _.aan introduction to the history of artificial leavesban invention copying photosynthesiscgiving energy to the poorda mixture of water power and solar energy答案b主旨大意题。综观全文可知，本文主要讲述了人造树叶模拟光合作用发电这一新发明。20the underlined word “imitate” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by “_”aproduce bhold cprevent dcopy答案d词义猜测题。画线部分的前文介绍了什么是光合作用，后文介绍了利用人造树叶效仿这种光合作用进行发电的内容，所以该词的含义应该是“仿效”，故d项是最佳答案。.阅读表达(共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分)阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。with many job postings(公开招聘) now requiring candidates (应聘者) to apply via email, first impressions are made not with a handshake but with words on a computer screen.just like its usually a good idea to dress best

are unprofessional. hr managers (人力资源经理) recommend plain fonts such as times new roman or arial, and black text on a white background.they also warn against sending emails from strange addresses. littlebird or chinatiger might not get what you hope for.dont be too creative in the subject line(标题)use plain, simple language like “talented candidate seeking position as name of position” or “enthusiastic candidate seeking position with name of company”. use one word to describe yourself, but do not go to extremes.the same rules apply to a paper resume (简历) and cover letter. recruiters have only seconds to devote to each cover letter they receive. many look at just three things: the positions youve held, the companies youve worked for，and your e
