But have you ever stopped to consider the production techniques behind the bag itself? At the center of it is a woman named Margaret Knight.‎ From her earliest years, Knight was a restless creator. In the article titled " The Evolution of the Grocery Bag", its writer mentions a few of her childhood projects. She was “famous for her kites", and "her sleds were the envy of the town’s boys.”‎ To support her mother, she took a job at a cotton factory when she was 12. That same year she invented a shuttle system which helped to prevent injury. At the time, she had no concept of patenting(得到……的专利权) her idea. What strengthened her place in history was her working experience at the Columbia Paper Bag Company. Here, instead of folding every paper bag by hand, Knight wondered if she might be able to make them cleanly and rapidly via an automated machine. The result was a working model of her elegant paper-folding machine. But this time: she wanted to go to the extra step and secure a patent on her creation, a brave move for a woman in the 19th century, when an extremely small percentage of patents were held by women.‎ Not only did Knight file for a patent, she bravely defended her owner ship of the bag machine idea. A man named Charles Annan said the creation was his own, arguing no woman could be able to design such a machine. Knight fought a legal battle against him and handed Anna a courtroom(法庭)defeat by presenting her detailed hand-drawn blueprints. Finally，Knight received her rightful patent in 1871.‎ After making the machine, she continued to invent many other things like a paper feeding machine and a skirt protector. Knight, at the age of seventy, worked twenty hours a day on 89th invention.‎ ‎4. Why does the writer mention Knight's childhood projects?‎ A. To introduce a book to reader B. To tell us young Knight liked sports.‎ C. To show Knight was envied by other girls D. To show Knight was creative as a child ‎5. Which words can best describe Knight?‎ A. Intelligent and generous.‎ B. Courageous and hardworking C. Considerate and optimistic D. Independent and determined.‎ ‎6. What do we know about the paper folding machine?‎ A. It turned to be slower but safer B. It was co invented by Knight and Annan C. It proved Knight's position as an inventor.‎ D. It was the first machine to be patented by a woman ‎7. How is the text mainly developed?‎ A. By following the order of time B. By making some comments.‎ C. By making a comparison D. By listing examples ‎【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。讲述了 Knight小时候爱好捣鼓到以后发明折纸机器并在一番曲折后获得专利的故事。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第二段第一句From her earliest years, Knight was a restless ‎ creator.（从她早年起，奈特就是一个不安分的创造者。）可知作者提到奈特的童年计划是为了向大家展示奈特小时候的创造力。故选D。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第三段中的a brave move for a woman in the 19th century, when an extremely small percentage of patents were held by women.（这对19世纪的女性来说是一个勇敢的举动，当时只有极少数的专利是由女性持有的。）和最后一段Knight, at the age of seventy, worked twenty hours a day on 89th invention.（奈特，70岁，在第89项发明上每天工作20个小时。）可知Knight是很勤劳勇敢的。故选B。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第三段中What strengthened her place in history was her working experience at the Columbia Paper Bag Company.（她在哥伦比亚纸袋公司的工作经历巩固了她在历史上的地位。）可知这台折纸机证明了奈特作为发明家的地位。故选C。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 推理判断题。通读全文，文章以时间为线索，讲述了 Knight小时候爱好捣鼓到以后发明折纸机器并在一番曲折后获得专利的故事。可知是按时间顺序来讲述文章的，故选A。‎ C Research shows that some orchestral(管弦乐的)instruments are in a danger of dying out .YouGov research, asked by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO) to find the most popular instruments among schoolchildren, has revealed the increasing popularity of the ukulele(克里里)， with one in eight expressing a desire to learn， making it the highest ranked instrument behind the typical rock band grouping of the guitar, piano, keyboards, drums and bass guitar.‎ But younger generations interest in "more complex instruments “is decreasing, with the three least popular being the French horn. the double bass and the trombone.‎ James Williams, managing director of the RPO, believed the changes reflect the increasing pressure schools are under to provide music education, and went on to say that more needs to be done to interest secondary school students in the wider range of instruments. His concern was for the composition(构成)of future orchestras if the trend towards instruments like rock- band grouping were allowed to continue. But there may be yet another death, one that few would be quick to sorrow over: the recorder(竖笛)‎ Cheap, convenient, easy to learn, and suitable for individual and group performances, the recorder was once the go-to instrument for children’s early musical education. But in many schools it has been replaced by the ukulele, which, for teachers, offers many of the same benefits with none of the lasting damage to bearing. Plus, from a student’s viewpoint you can play Metallica on one.‎ Not all hope is lost for the cream-colored,10-pound Yatnaha recorder with a long history, however. About 13% of girls and 4% boys surveyed by YouGov said they wanted to learn the reorder. Surprisingly high! Unlikely as it may be. these children’s interest in the recorder must be encouraged.‎ ‎8. What does YouGov research suggest?‎ A. Schoolchildren determine the popularity of music B. The ukulele is the least popular with students in C. Students generally prefer rock-band instruments.‎ D. Orchestral instruments will disappear in the future.‎ ‎9. What can we do to save orchestral instruments according to Williams?‎ A. Encourage children to play rock and roll.‎ B. Find means to inspire students' interest in them.‎ C. Spend much more school on music education D. Offer high-quality orchestral instruments to the public ‎10. Why has the ukulele replaced the recorder widely?‎ A. Because users can enjoy more advantages from it B. Because the music played on it is more appealing.‎ C. Because it is much cheaper and easier to learn D. Because it stands for the world's music tendency ‎11. What does the author stress in the Last paragraph?‎ A. Many children choose recorders as expected B. It's time for younger learners to save music C. We should respect children’s choices for instruments D. Recorders still have the potential for a bright future.‎ ‎【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。调查发现，人们对竖笛等管弦乐器的喜欢程度明显降低，很多人转向学习尤克里里琴，这背后原因众多。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段中的to find the most popular instruments among schoolchildren, has revealed the increasing popularity of the ukulele with one in eight expressing a desire to learn, making it the highest ranked instrument behind the typical rock band grouping of the guitar, piano, keyboards, drums and bass guitar.（为了在小学生中找到最受欢迎的乐器，研究人员发现尤克里里琴的受欢迎程度越来越高，八分之一的学生表示有学习的愿望，这使它成为仅次于吉他、钢琴、键盘、鼓和低音吉他等典型摇滚乐队之后排名最高的乐器。）可知摇滚乐器普遍更受学生喜爱。故选C。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段中的and went on to say that more needs to be done to interest secondary school students in the wider range of instruments.（他接着说，需要做更多的工作来让中学生对更广泛的乐器产生兴趣。）可知根据威廉姆斯的观点，我们能找到激发学生兴趣的方法来拯救管弦乐乐器。故选B。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第四段中的 But in many schools it has been replaced by the ukulele, which, for teachers, offers many of the same benefits with none of the lasting damage to bearing. Plus, from a students viewpoint you can play Metallica on one.可知尤克里里之所以大范围取代竖笛是因为不管对于老师还是学生而言，它都有更多的优点。故选A。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的Not all hope is lost for the cream-colored和Surprisingly high!可知最后一段主要讲了调查显示，选择学习竖琴和人数还不少，竖笛的未来还是有希望的。故选D。‎ ‎【点睛】通过对关键词，关键短语或者是关键的句子的把握是解决推理判断题的重要解题方法之一，它们往往隐藏着深层的意思。如第一小题，根据第一段中的to find the most popular instruments among schoolchildren, has revealed the increasing popularity of the ‎ ukulele with one in eight expressing a desire to learn, making it the highest ranked instrument behind the typical rock band grouping of the guitar, piano, keyboards, drums and bass guitar.（为了在小学生中找到最受欢迎的乐器，研究人员发现尤克里里琴的受欢迎程度越来越高，八分之一的学生表示有学习的愿望，这使它成为仅次于吉他、钢琴、键盘、鼓和低音吉他等典型摇滚乐队之后排名最高的乐器。）可知摇滚乐器普遍更受学生喜爱。故选C。‎ D PARIS-A scaffolding(脚手架) firm that has worked on the roof of Notre Dame said some of its workers had smoked on the site, but ruled out that a cigarette butt(烟蒂) might have started the fire that destroyed the cathedral’s oak-framed roof last week.‎ A spokesman for family-owned Le Bras Freres, confirming a report in French weekly Le Canard Emchaine, told Reuters that some workers of its Europe Echafaudage scaffolding unit had informed police that they had "sometimes “smoked the scaffolding, despite a smoking ban on the site.‎ ‎“We blame it. But the fire started inside the building so for company Le Bras Freres this is not a hypothesis(假设 )， it was not a cigarette butt that set Notre Dame de Paris on fire, "Le Bras Freres spokesman Mare Eskenazi said. The Canard Enchaine reported that police had found the remains of seven cigarette butts in the burnt-out cathedral. “This is not wrong, "said a source close to the investigation, who declined all other comment. Eskemazi said it was impossible to set a log on fire with a cigarette butt and questioned how cigarette butts could have been found on the site. " If cigarette butts have survived the fire, I do not know what material they were made of, "he said Europe Echaffaudage also ruled out the possibility that the fire might have been started by an electricity incident at one of the two lifts on the site. " The lifts' electricity was perfectly within specifications and well maintained. "he said. He added that the two lifts were on the outside of the building, situated at 45 and 65 meters from the base of the spire( 尖顶), where the first smoke and flames had been ‎ spotted and that the workers had cut the power to the lifts at 17: 50 when they had left the site for the day.‎ The Canard Enchaine also reported that electrical wiring ran through the roof of the cathedral, but the church administration denied that safety norms had not been respected. “Nothing was ever done without the approval of the state..There were no wires dangling everything was properly installed, "Notre Dame spokesman Andre Finot said. In 2012,electrical engines had been installed to sound the bells in the spire.‎ ‎12. Why did Le Bras Errs spokesman Mare Eskenazi disagree that cigarette butts had caused the fire?‎ A. Because no one had thrown a cigarette butt on a log B. Because there is a smoking ban on the site of Notre Dame.‎ C. Because the cigarette butts couldn't have survived the big fire D. Because no cigarette butts had been found in the burnt-out cathedral ‎13. What can we learn from what Eskenazi said in Para 4?‎ A. The two lifts were on the inside of the building of Notre Dame B. The two lifts were situated at the same height from the base of the spire.‎ C. The lifts' electricity was perfectly within specifications and well maintained.‎ D.

Figuring out where the fish is and why it is there is another part of the challenge. And learning enough about them to consistently catch fish is a challenge most of s don't overcome.‎ The pull of the fish you hook and the efforts to land it without losing it are part of the fun. Struggling with a fish on a rod and reel is very interesting. Good fresh food is another reason why many people go fishing. Getting your own food is another basic need that fishing provides.‎ Competition has become a big part of fishing. I like it, where a group of people go out and try to catch fish.____19____.It is nice when you win, but you try to listen and learn from the winner when you are not on top.‎ For many years, I had an irresistible desire to go fishing.
