1960s in a suburb of Pittsburgh it was not always easy to find role models But I was lucky In my childhood I knew smart strong women who had accomplished much one of whom invented the world s first computer compiler 编译器 Recently though I learned about a role model who was right under my nose my own mother Growing up I knew she had worked as a secretary before I was born I knew that she had joined the WAVES the Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service branch of the U S Naval Reserve 海军预备队 during World War II And I knew she d worked in an office that was involved with codes 编码 But when she talked about it rare because she had been sworn to secrecy she described her duties as ordinary routine I never questioned it After all the woman I knew was a reserved suburban mom Not long ago a chance conversation with a colleague led me to the book Code Girls It tells the story of the WAVES who decrypted 解码 and encrypted secret messages during the war They worked around the clock knowing that the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers their brothers husbands fathers were on the line Inspired I began a journey to explore the mystery of my mother s service that continues to this day I got some of her working records about her unit OP19 In two years she was promoted three times She was no secretary and her duties were hardly ordinary My mother always encouraged my interest in science and insisted to my father that I go to college You re going to grow up to be another Madame Curie she told me She was always pointing at other women She did not see herself as someone to model on Neither did I Now I see her differently 24 Why didn t the author s mother tell the truth about her job A She was afraid of being fired by her company B She knew well what to be expected of her career C She thought her job was just unremarkable D She thought secretary was better than her real job 25 Which of the following words can best describe the author s mother A Ambitious and reserved B Cooperative and sincere C Devoted and faithful D Hardworking and skeptical 26 What can we learn from the text A The author doubted her mother s job when she was a child B The author s mother saw herself as an example to follow C Code Girls job is more important than that of the soldiers D Code Girls inspired the author to learn more of her mother 27 Which of the following can be the best title for the text A Mom My Real Role Model B The OP19 A Buried Secret C Code Girls My Favourite Book D WAVES A Mysterious Organization C A lifetime of active exercise will let you keep the body of a 20 year old well into your 70s scientists have found The physical decline thought to be an unavoidable part of ageing is actually the result of not exercising enough according to the research which found that regular cyclists maintained the muscles lungs and even the immune system 免疫系统 of people decades younger Besides many serious health problems could be prevented if people became more active rather than being sedentary 久坐 researchers insist Janet Lord leading researcher or the research said Our findings disprove the assumption that ageing automatically makes us weaker We now have strong evidence that encouraging people to do regular exercise throughout their lives can be a solution to the problem that we are living longer but not healthier She looked at125 keen cyclists aged 55 to 79 who had been exercising regularly for 25yearsand compared them with 75 ordinary people of a similar age and 55 people aged 20 to 36 On a string of physical measures the cyclists showed no difference from people much younger Besides scientists were surprised to discover that their immune systems were also the same They kept making T cells which organize the response to new infection in the same way as younger people while production tailed off in older people who did not cycle It s in the textbooks that your immune system doesn t work as well and you get more infections but in the cyclists they were the same as a 20 year old Professor Lord said She now aims to discover how much exercise people need to do to stay young My suspicion is you don t need to do a massive amount It may be intensive 强度 that helps like going up and down the stairs ten times a day You get a big benefit by simply doing something instead of sitting While there is no magic formula 方案 for staying mentally and physically fit in later life the benefits of keeping active can never be ignored whatever your age or state of health 28 According to the research what is the reason for physical decline A The failure of organs B The poor state of health C The increased physical activity D The lack of regular exercise 29 Which of the following can best replace the phrase tailed off in Paragraph 4 A Reopened briefly B Stopped suddenly C Increased sharply D Lessened slowly 30 Which of the following statements would Professor Lord probably agree with A Ageing automatically makes people increasingly weaker B People need a large amount of exercise to stay young C The intensity of exercise matters in slowing down ageing D A magic formula is what people need to stay fit in later life 31 What is the main purpose of the passage A To stress the importance of being physically active B To explain the functions of the immune system C To introduce the ways to stay D To discuss the benefits of regular cycling D What would it be like to be able to remember anything you ever learned Would it be blessing or a curse Since the early 20th century psychologists have identified countless cases of people with super memories that allow them to lean and retain 保持 new information with total accuracy The most famous was Solomon Sherashevski the subject of Alexander Luria s classic book The Mind of a Mnemonist 记忆大师 Sherashevski could recall an amazing number of facts due to his talent for eidetic imagery 照 相式记忆 which allowed him to recall sights sounds smells etc Sadly enough he seemed to have significant difficulty living a normal life due to his inability to forget anything he learned and the continual daydreaming caused by his constant recall There are certainly other mnemonists whose memory feats 功绩 are also surprisingly impressive Strangely enough though research suggests these professional mnemonists are no better than average peoples peaking of remembering events out of their own lives iou But there are also people whose memories seem to work differently They are able to recall almost every moment of their lives even the early childhood a condition commonly called hyperthymesia 超忆症 Unlike mnemonists people with hyperthymesia don t rely on any techniques to memorize it seems to happen automatically While no former studies have found the reasons a recent laboratory test shows they aren t any better than average people in terms of learning new information Recently Neuropsychology presents a study of a 63 year old man identified as MM He didn t realize his memory skills until 29 when he found he could recall events from American history with amazing accuracy Despite his superior memory his life seemed completely unaffected He did poorly in school no friends at all Besides though his recall resembled that of people with hyperthymesia his memories weren t quite as vivid So far there isn t enough information to make any real conclusions about the super memory However as new studies become available we are sure to learn about what makes these brains so unusual 32 What made it difficult for Sherashevski to live a normal life A His poor social skills B His great interest in history C His early childhood experience D His inability to forget things 33 People with hyperthymesia differ from mnemonists in that A they remember things without intention B they count on techniques to memorize C they are better at learning new information D they can t recall as vividly as mnemonists 34 What can be learned from the passage A Former studies have found the roots for unusual memory B Super memory contributes to better academic performance C MM s life has been greatly improved by his memory D It s hard to tell whether super memory is good or not 35 Where is the passage probably taken from A A book review B A popular science magazine C A public speech D A report on mental health 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 选项中有两项为多 余选项 Countless
