On Oct 3, the US TV show 2 Broke Girls celebrated its 100th episode, and its fifth season began on Nov 12. The show has been successful because it shows how difficult it is for those on a low income to realize the American Dream. In the show, Max Black is a diner waitress in Brooklyn, New York. Despite her strong personality, Max feels she is going to live a life of debt, bad jobs and no future. The other main character in the show is newly-hired waitress Caroline Channing, who was a billionaires daughter with no real job. But now she is broke and homeless because her father was arrested for financial fraud (诈骗). While Max had been poor for a long time when the show began, Caroline was not ready for the hard reality of being broke. On her first day of work, Caroline made just $2 in tips through incompetent job performance. However, as a clever graduate of the Wharton School of Business, she also made more than $300 selling Maxs cupcakes at a high price. The two soon became friends, roommates and business partners with the goal of earning $250,000 to open their own cupcake shop. To let fans know how the girls are doing, each episode ends with a title card showing the current total of the money they have saved. The situation that the two girls find themselves in comes from the 2008 economic crisis, a problem that meant that people in the US who once had a lot of money ended up in the same position as people who never had anything at all. As Alyssa Rosenberg noted in The Atlantic magazine, “2 Broke Girls is about how people (not the super-rich) began to see themselves as part of the same uncertain economy, rather than divided into working-class, middle-class and others.”4.

What is the social problem reflected in this TV show according to the passage? A. In the US, the poor suffered more than the wealthy in the 2008 economic crisis. B. The 2008 economic crisis put everybody in the US in the same position. C. The 2008 economic crisis somewhat bridged the gap between the rich and the poorD. Some people suffered from the 2008 economic crisis, but others benefited greatly. 7. The best title of the passage can be _. A. An American DreamB. Two Dreaming GirlsC. Poor Americans DreamD. Waitresses of The DreamCMany years later as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buenda was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice. At that time Macondo was a village of twenty mud brick houses, built on the bank of a river of clear water that ran along a bed of polished stones. The world was so recent that many things lacked names. Every year during the month of March a family of ragged gypsies (吉普赛人) would set up their tents near the village, and with a great sound of pipes and kettledrums they would display new inventions. First they brought the magnet. A heavy gypsy with a wild beard and sparrow hands, who introduced himself as Melquades, put on a public presentation he himself called the eighth wonder of the learned alchemists (炼金术士) of Macedonia. He went from house to house dragging two metal pieces and everybody was amazed to see iron things drop down from their places and even iron objects that had been lost for a long time appeared from where they had been searched for most. Things have a life of their own, the gypsy said, Its simply a matter of waking up their souls. Jos Arcadio Buenda thought it would be possible to make use of that useless invention to extract gold from inside the earth. Melquades warned him: It wont work for that. But Jos Arcadio Buenda did not believe in the honesty of gypsies, so he traded his horse and a pair of goats for the two magnetized pieces. Jos Arcadio Buendas wife, rsula Iguarn, who relied on those animals to increase their poor family condition, was unable to persuade him. For several months he worked hard to explore every inch of the region, even the riverbed, with a shovel, dragging the two iron pieces along and reciting Melquades incantation (咒语) aloud. The only thing he succeeded in doing was to unearth a suit fifteenth-century armor (铠甲) which had all of its pieces connected together with rust. When he managed to take the armor apart, he found inside a skeleton with a copper box containing a womans hair around its neck.8. Which of the following about Jos Arcadio Buenda is TRUE?A. He was a villager from Macondo, a remote village where gypsies lived.B. He wanted to make money with the two metal pieces bought from the gypsy. C. He lived in Macondo with rsula Iguarn for several months to extract gold. D. He traded his horse and a goat for magnets and finally found a valuable armor.9. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. Colonel Aureliano Buenda missed his father. B. Melquades settled in the village with his family.C. rsula Iguarn was unwilling to buy the metal pieces. D. Melquades was proud of the two metal pieces. 10.The underlined word in the last paragraph means_. A. knock outB. find outC. dig outD. turn out11. According to the passage, which of the following is WRONG?A. Macondo was a village built on the riverside with a small population.B. A skeleton inside the old armor was discovered by Jos Arcadio Buenda. C. Some gypsies thought that things in the world had souls of their own. D. Macondo villagers hated gypsies because they always cheated them. DThe word “super-material” gets thrown around a lot these days: ceramic super-materials, aerogel super materials, elastomeric super material. But one super-material beats them all, earning its discoverers a Nobel Prize and defining the upper limit for scientific excitement. Its called graphene (石墨烯), the granddaddy of the modern boom in materials science.Graphene was accidentally discovered in 2010 by two scientists, Andre Geim and Kostya Novoselov, at Manchester University, UK. What exactly is it? The idea is easy enough to come up with: what if we could take a diamond and cut it into pieces justone atom thick? This would make it a so-called “two-dimensional” substance, made entirely out of carbon, yet flexible in a way thatdiamond cannot be. It not only has the incredible physical properties youd expect from the strongest materials, but also has unbelievably high electrical conductivity (传导性). Being atomically small, graphene is suitable for a wide range of applications - not least in electronics. It allows many industries to take huge steps forward. Theresbioengineering, where scientists hope to use graphenesunbelievably small size to enter cell walls, potentially put a molecule (分子) of the researchers choice. Graphene could also be used to create an ultra-fine, anti-biotic water filter (过滤器) for quick, easy filtration of possibly dangerous drinking water. Its not surprising that designers and engineers are letting their imaginations run wild at the thought.Graphene will change the world the only question is whether it will do so directly, or indirectly. Definitely, it is inspiring a new generation of two-dimensional material science, and will be incredibly important in shaping the face of the modern world. 12. Which of the following best describes graphene?A. It is a super-material with low flexibility and high conductivity. B. It was discovered by two scientists in the UK 3 years ago. C. It has incredible physical properties and electrical conductivity. D. It is one-atom thick and can get into cell walls easily. 13. What is the writers attitude toward graphene?A. indifferent B. doubtful C. positive D. suspicious 14. How does the writer develop Paragraph 3? A. By explaining causes B. By giving examplesC. By listing statisticsD. By drawing conclusions 15. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A. Graphene might be very useful in a limited variety of fields.B. Graphene and graphene-related industries will advance the world. C. Scientists are still questioning whether grapheme is useful or not. D. There exists a disadvantage about graphene although it is very useful. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Without us even realizing it, smartphones have taken over our lives.
