11、even to people who sweated through high school science.Humor was always a big part of Hawkings effort to bring physics to the masses.In his 2010 book，The Grand Design，for instance，he recounts how，in 1277，the Catholic Church declared scientific laws such as gravity to be wrong，since they seemed again

12、st Gods idea.“Interestingly，”the text adds jokingly，“Pope John was killed by the effects of the law of gravity a few months later when the roof of his palace fell in on him.”Hawking was only 21 when he was diagnosed with the disease ALS.For most people，the condition would have been a disaster.But Ha

13、wking rolled over hardship as if it were just a pebble under his wheelchair.“Life would be tragic，”he once said，“if it werent funny.”He kept smiling even though he spent more than 4 years in a wheelchair.“He loved adventure and fun，”says Mlodinow，who once took Hawking on a punt-boat trip down the fi

14、ver Cam in Cambridge，England，despite the obvious danger of the boat turning over.“You know about when he went on the Vomit Comet? Its a plane that flies in a parabolic(抛物线的)path so you are weightless，like you are in space.A lot of people vomit，but he loved that sort of thing.”And he was 65 at the ti

15、me.Hawkings greatest hit，humor-wise，was probably the cocktail party he threw in 2009.It was a“welcome reception for future time travelers，”he said，so naturally，he sent out the invitations the day after the party.No one showed up yet.“Maybe one day someone living in the future will find the informati

16、on and use a wormhole time machine to come back to my party，proving that time travel will one day be possible，”Hawking explained.And if that happens，dont be surprised if Hawking is there too.After all，he never missed a chance to have fun.1、What does the text mainly tell us about Hawking?AHe related

17、physics to humor closely.BHe made great contributions to physics.CHe went through many funny experiences.DHe was optimistic about the future of science.2、What can we learn about Pope John?AHe was not in favor of God.BHe was a scientist like Hawking.CHe was opposed to the law of gravity.DHe was kille

In this market, Chinese consumers are now the largest spenders. Its clear that a new gen

20、eration of young, materialistic people is increasingly relying on luxury brands to improve its self-image.I am a fashionist too, at least in spiritI love to look at clothes and shoes. But I dont understand why people spend lots of money on designer labels.When a young woman buys a handbag that costs

21、 two months of her salary, thats a scary thing.Whats interesting is that scientists have found that having luxury things doesnt lead to happiness.Study after study has shown that although we want material things, when we get them we dont suddenly become “happy” people. In fact, a series of studies b

22、y Leaf Van Boven at the University of Colorado, US, has shown that individuals who spend money on travel and similar experiences get more pleasure than those who invest it in material things. Thats because experiences are more easily combined with a persons identity. If I travel to Yunnan, that adve

23、nture affects how I think in the future. My memories become a part of me.Moreover, as Van Boven has observed, young people who pursue happiness through “things” are liked less by their peers. People prefer those who pursue happiness through experiences.Its natural to want to express yourself through

24、 your appearance. So my advice is: create a look that isnt tied to a designer label. Convey your own message. Take some lessons from the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. He was always in Levis jeans and a black turtleneck. Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, routinely appears in hoodies and sneak

25、ers. These people, successful people, have style. You dont have to break the bank to send a message about who you are.Take a trip. Go out into the world. Then come back and confidently create your own signature look.1、What can we infer from the first three paragraphs?AThe author enjoys buying luxury

26、 brands herself.BThe author agrees to spend money on material things.CThe author is critical of youths tying their looks to designer labels.DThe author finds it natural for fashionists to follow fashion trends.2、Leaf Van Bovens studies showed that _.Atraveling changes a persons identity greatlyBpeop

27、le dislike those who love luxuriesCexperiences can bring people more happiness than luxuriesDluxuries have a negative effect on peoples happiness3、What is the authors advice on expressing oneself?ABe selective about designer labels.BCreate your own personal unique style.CChoose styles that are simpl

28、e and comfortable.DTry styles like Mark Zuckerbergs.4、The main purpose of the article is to _.Apersuade readers to invest in experiences instead of luxuriesBprove how luxury leads to an unpleasant lifeCtell how to express yourself through appearancesDreport on a series of studies about luxuries and

29、happiness23（8分） Canada is a bilingual country with co-official languages. English and French enjoy equal status as the official languages of all government agencies in Canada. This means that the public has the right to communicate with and receive services from government in either English or Frenc

30、h. Government employees have the right to work in the official language of their choice in certain bilingual regions.Like the United States, Canada started as a colony. Beginning in the 1500s it was part of New France but later became a British colony after the Seven Years War. As a result, the Cana

31、dian government recognized the languages of both colonizers: France and England. The Constitution (宪法)Act of 1867 admitted the use of both languages in federal courts. Years later, Canada strengthened its commitment to bilingualism when it passed the Official Languages Act of 1969, which reconfirmed

32、 the constitutional origins of its co official languages.Recognition of both English and French protects the rights of all Canadians. Among other benefits, the 1969 Act recognized the Canadian citizens should be able to access federal laws and government documents, whether their native language was

33、French or English. The general law also requires that consumer products feature bilingual packaging throughout the country.The Canadian government is committed to advancing the equality and the use of English and French and provides support to the development of English and French minority communiti

34、es. However, the reality is that most Canadians speak English, and of course, many Canadians speak another language entirely.Although the federal government theoretically guarantees bilingual services in all areas, there are many regions where English is the clear majority language so the government

35、 does not offer services in French in those regions. Canadians use the phrase where numbers justify to indicate whether a local populations language requires bilingual services from the government.While many Canadians are bilingual in English and French, Statistics. Canada finds that over 200 other

36、languages were reported as a language spoken by its people. About two-thirds of the respondents who spoke one of these languages also spoke either English or French1、Why are two official languages accepted in Canada?AThe language-using tradition caused by Canadas colonial historyBThe theoretical com

37、mitment made by Canadian courts in the pastCThe welcome attitude towards people coming from all over the worldDThe mastery of two languages of Canadians because of school education2、What is the current situation of official languages in Canada?APeople speaking English are superior because of their a

38、ccess to federal lawsBFederal governments have to provide bilingual services to all citizens in CanadaCFrench minority communities are given more support due to their language-using historyDThere are more people speaking English than French in some parts of Canada3、What can we infer from the passage

39、?AThe legal court usage of French and English was established in Canada in 1969.BSome Canadians in certain districts might speak neither English nor FrenchCEither French or English should be used on products in Canada according to the lawDEnglish has gained superior legal position to French because

40、of bigger users in Canada4、Which is the best title of the passage?AThe Official Languages in Canada BCanada, a Multiple-language LandCBalancing English and French in Canada DAdvancing English and French in Canada24（8分）“Mom, what is that?” asked my son. “The Bride of Chucky?”The old doll I was holdin

41、g was pretty scary. Her glass eyes were especially horrible, closing when she stood upright and flying open when she lay flat. Once she had been loved, but she had been stored in an attic (阁楼) for decades, where the extremes of heat and cold can be hard on a girls looks. Throw her in the waste bin?

42、Maybe. But first, lets check eBay.I clicked, supplied the required information about condition, including defects (i.e., “Only a miracle could save this doll”), and uploaded its photos. I sold it for $5.The buyer was happy: “As described!” he wrote on my feedback page. “Super seller!” The doll found

43、 a home and, I hope, a new life. Maybe she was used to repair other dolls. Perhaps those strange eyes got fixed and once again can inspire a childs love. Its a win-win, if you ask me.I also sold lots of other stuff. None of them brought in a lot of money, though I have been surprised at the occasion

44、al bidding war, like, for example, the one over an old swimsuit that would have made Brigitte Bardot look bad. And some customers, lets face it, are strange. Recently I had a hard time convincing an Australian would-be buyer of an Irish souvenir bell that I dont shop internationally; its just too mu

45、ch trouble. He could have flown to Ireland and bought his own bell for the price he was willing to pay. Another time, a buyer complained that the electric wire on an old radio was dirty. Really? Dirty? The wire was black. But I aim to please, so I offered a refund.So why bother with the dealing and

46、small profits? Because I dont like abandoning the past. All these treasures once had stories. They meant something. But the people who gave them that meaning are gone, and I simply cannot rescue everything. I cant even sew. So I find it satisfying that a new owner, discovered via eBay, will continue

47、 the story in his or her own way.1、What was the doll like?AIt was lovely.BIt was beautiful.CIt looked frightening.DIt was pretty ordinary.2、Which can best replace the underlined word “defects” in Paragraph 3?AFaults.BVirtues.CPictures.DRequirements.3、Why did the author refuse to sell the Australian

48、the bell?AShe thought he was strange.BHis bid was not high enough.CSomeone else had already bought it.DDelivering it to him was troublesome.4、After receiving the complaint about the radio, the author _.Afelt deeply sorryBexplained patientlyCreturned the moneyDapologized immediately5、Why does the aut

49、hor sell used stuff via eBay?AShe needs money badly.BShe is an environmentalist.CShe is interested in marketing.DShe wants their stories to be continued.25（10分） Everything about nuclear energy seems terrifically big: the cost, construction and decommissioningand the fears of something going badly wr

50、ong.The future, however may well be much smaller. Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk.These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of power compared with the 1,000MW-p

51、lus from a conventional reactor. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors (AMRs)most of which will not be commercial until the 2030sare critical if atomic power i

52、s to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind.“The physics hasnt changed. Its about much cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the

53、 UK.Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011, safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All

54、 involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used at Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.The UK, which opened the worlds first commerci

55、al nuclear reactor in 1956, is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear powers ability to restore confidence.However, the countrys agree

56、ment with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Pointwhich together will generate 3.2GW of electricityhas come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital to the countrys future energy mix. Small reactors, it b

57、elieves, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s.A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to 56m in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lea

58、d in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies.1、Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)?AAMRs produce more power than traditional react

59、orsBSmall in scale, AMRs rose more safety risksCSo far, most AMRs have not been put into use yetDGovernments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMRs2、In paragraph 5, the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to _.Aprove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety conce

60、rn.Bshow that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available.Cindicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speed.Dpoint out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology.3、What can be inferred from the passage?ASome people have lost confid
