Yale did，admitting her to the class of 1978, where she started writing for the Yale Daily News and decided to be a journalist，” her mother said.On Wednesday, Marie Colvin, 56, an experienced journalist for The Sunday Times of London, was killed as Syrian forces shelled (炮击) the city of Horns. She was working in a temporary media center that was destroyed in the attack.“She was supposed to leave Syria on Wednesday”， Mrs. Colvin said.“ Her editor told me he called her yesterday and said it was getting too dangerous and they wanted to take her out. She said she was doing a story and she wanted to finish it.”Mrs.Colvin said it was pointless to try to prevent her daughter from going to conflict (冲突) zones. “If you knew my daughter，” she said, “you would find it was such a waste of words. She was determined, she was enthusiastic about what she did, and it was her life. She believed that there was no saying Dont do this. She said，Cover the story, not just have pictures of it, but bring it to life in the deepest way you could.and so she did.”【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了Colvin夫人回忆女儿Marie Colvin曾经的一些经历，从中我们可以知道：她的女儿是一名优秀的新闻记者，在叙利亚冲突地区工作时不幸殉职。25From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1, we can infer that _AYale was her last choiceBMarie Colvin was confident of herselfCYale must keep its promise to Marie ColvinDMarie Colvin was good at persuasion解析：选B细节理解题。根据第一段的内容可知，Marie Colvin因在巴西参加一个为期一年的交换生项目而错过了大学录取时间，所以她就直接开车去了耶鲁大学，让耶鲁大学录取她，由此可推断出，Marie Colvin很自信。故选B项。26From the last paragraph, we can know that Mrs.Colvin _Adislikes the choice of her daughterBcares little about her daughterCknows her daughter very wellDdoesnt fully appreciate her daughter解析：选C推理判断题。从最后一段Colvin夫人对自己女儿的介绍可知，她对自己的女儿很了解，知道自己女儿的个性以及女儿的内心世界。故选C项。27What may be the best title for the text?ACovering Stories in a Dangerous Conflict AreaBApplying for Top Universities, a Successful CaseCChoosing Lifelong Careers Based on Your Own InterestDRecalling Her Daughter, a Journalist Killed in Syria解析：选D标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了Colvin夫人对她女儿的回忆，所以D项作为本文的标题最合适。故选D项。CDo you suppose Darwin, one of the greatest scientists of all time, really did fools experiments? Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish?Sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution (解决办法) to a problem. Sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important.Charles Darwin didnt settle for(满足于) just thinking he knew something. And, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be.Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. If you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight (紧的) little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets. What happens? You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldnt be worth anything.But this simple experiment is important. It explains part of our presentday understandings of physics and ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton. And these understandings set aside some of ancient Greek physics.A Scientist sometimes stops to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. Even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science.【语篇解读】本文介绍了达尔文做了很多人们认为很简单、基本的不值得一做的实验，但他相信所有的事情都很重要，不管它们看起来多么简单。作者以达尔文为例，告诉我们要留意身边的小事，要善于探索。28In the scientists eyes，sometimes the very simple things may _Atell us everything of our lifeBdiscover the truth of the natureCshake the foundations of scienceDhelp them finish the experiment解析：选C细节理解题。根据最后一段的内容可推知答案选C。29The passage tells us that Charles Darwin _Awas a great English scientistBalways liked doing the experiments that others thought difficultCthought even the simplest thing was importantDdidnt get along well with others解析：选C推理判断题。短文并没有说Charles Darwin是哪个国家的科学家，可排除A；由第一、二段可知别人认为Darwin的许多实验不值得做，可把B排除；文中没有论述Darwin与别人相处的事情，可排除D。由文中第三段“he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be”可推出答案选C。30The phrase “set aside” most probably means _Athrow awayBstore upCput to useDrealize解析：选A词义猜测题。由上文可知，作者认为做这个简单实验是重要的，它解释了目前人们对于物理方面的理解。因此这些理解当然是推翻了一些古希腊物理学的观点。由此可推知set aside与throw away同义。31The author of the passage tries to _Aconvince us that Charles Darwin, Galileo and Newton are the greatest scientists in the worldBdraw the conclusion that basic sciences are simple thingsCprove that two sheets of paper, with the same size and shape, will fall at the same speedDdraw our attention to everyday happenings around us解析：选D主旨大意题。短文的最后一段点明最简单的事情都可能动摇科学的根基，意在告诉读者要留意身边的每一件事，哪怕它非常简单。故选D。DA government survey suggests the number of high school and middle school students using electronic cigarettes fell to 2.2 million last year, from 3 million the year before. “It certainly is a public health win，” said Brian King, an expert on smoking and health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)Its the first decrease the CDC has reported in teen vaping (电子烟) since the agency began tracking it in 2011. The findings are similar to a recent University of Michigan survey, which also noticed the decrease. Its unclear why teen vaping fell last year, and its too soon to know if the numbers will continue to drop.One possibility may be a growing push to ban the sale of ecigarettes to minors (未成年人), including a federal regulation that took effect in August. Another may be the influence of ad campaigns by the government and other organizations to stop kids from smoking, the CDC said.Ecigarettes may also be losing their novelty (新奇) among teens, said Matthew Farrelly, a tobacco control researcher at RTL International. Studies suggest many kids who vape use the products less often than kids who smoke cigarettesa sign that vaping seems to be more social and experimental，some experts said.“ These products were new and unusual and now were starting to see that change，” said Robin Koval, president of Truth Initiative，a public health education organization that runs antitobacco ads.According to the CDC, cigarette smoking among young people has been falling for many years, but the decrease in ecigarettes was more remarkable (显著的)In 2011, 1.5 percent of high school students said theyd recently vaped. That jumped to 16 percent in 2015, and its become more common than cigarette smoking. But it dropped to about 11 percent last year, the CDC said. For middle school students, about 5 percent said theyd recently vaped in 2015. That fell to about 4 percent last year, the study found.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。一项政府调查表明，使用电子烟的中学生数量大幅下降。32What does the underlined part “ that change” in Paragraph 4 refer to?AEcigarettes are becoming less fresh.BEcigarettes seem more social and experimental.CMore kids are starting to smoke cigarettes.DMore kids are starting to use ecigarettes.解析：选A词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“Ecigarettes may also be losing their novelty(新奇) among teens.These products were new and unusual.”可知，电子烟对青少年来说没有以前新奇。33Whats the main idea of the third paragraph?AThe ban on ecigarettes.BThe influence of ecigarettes.CThe popularity of ecigarettes.DThe reason why teen vaping fell.解析：选D段落大意题。根据本段中的“One possibility may be a growing push to ban the sale of ecigarettes.Another may be the influence of ad campaigns.”可知，本段主要分析青少年电子烟使用数量下降的原因。34Why does the author use the data in the last paragraph?ATo tell us how the CDC carried out the research.BTo show the clear decrease in using ecigarettes.CTo introduce the fall in cigarette smoking.DTo explain why school students vaped.解析：选B推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“cigarette smoking among young people has been falling for many years，but the decrease in ecigarettes was more remarkable(显著的)”可知，作者用具体的数据说明学生中电子烟的使用数量下降这一现象。35What is the main purpose of the text?ATo give info
