The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live. One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up 20 minutes later, lying face down in muddy water. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a tree and a muddy road. When Mrs. Franco came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years. The news of James regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a compellent answer as to why this should happen. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since James lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock. ‎ ‎24.The reason why James attempted to kill himself was that ________. ‎ A. a terrible electrical accident happened to him B. nobody in the world cared about him C. he was struck by the lightning once more D. he had to live in a dark and silent world ‎25.What was James doing when he was struck by the lightning? ‎ A. Putting an end to his life. B. Sheltering from the rain under a tree. C. Taking a walk with a stick. D. Lying on the ground.‎ ‎26.What does the underlined word “compellent” in paragraph 3 mean? ‎ A. convincing B. wrong C. unexplained D. true ‎27.Which of the following can be the best title for the text? ‎ A. A Terrible Electrical Accident B. What a Sudden Shock C. An Unforgettable Experience D. James Franco and His Wife C When I watched wild baboons (狒狒) in Africa, it seemed as if they ate everything. But did they really? They have simple stomachs .If baboons eat foods that have a lot of fiber, they get very little nutrition from that food, and then they don't have room for more nutritious foods .Baboons need foods with a lot of nutrients .Baboons should be picky eaters.‎ In the 1990s, a team of primatologists (灵长类动物学家) solved this_riddle .By watching wild baboons, the team of primatologists found that the monkeys ate whatever they could find as long as the foods had a lot of protein and fat .Baboons avoided foods with lots of fiber .Many foods had high protein or high fat, and many foods had low fiber .So it looked as if baboons ate everything.‎ Research on baboon foods made me wonder how baboons found their foods .I knew baboons were smart .For their size, they have big brains, and they remember a lot of things .Even though some baboon troops have more than 100 monkeys, baboons easily remember their friends and enemies .I reasoned that baboons might memorize the locations of some foods.‎ For 18 months I lived in a tent in Ruaha National Park in Tanzania .I camped next to the river .I studied only male baboons because females have babies, and I didn't want to scare the little ones .Each morning, I picked a different male monkey. Everywhere he went, I followed .Every time he ate, I wrote down the food type and how much he ate.‎ I discovered that baboons did not find baobab trees (猴面包树) randomly. Instead, the monkeys walked quickly and directly to baobab trees .The same was not true for other foods .Baboons used more random patterns to find elephant dung (粪便), young antelopes, and grasses .Sometimes they found these foods on their way to the baobab trees!‎ ‎28.What does the underlined part “this riddle” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A．Where wild baboons live. B．How wild baboons find foods.‎ C．If wild baboons eat everything. D．If wild baboons have simple stomachs.‎ ‎29. What do we know about wild baboons?‎ A．They have few friends. B．They are not very smart.‎ C．They have many enemies. D．They have a good memory.‎ ‎30.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?‎ A．How the author studied wild baboons. ‎ B．The living environment of wild baboons.‎ C．How female wild baboons give birth to babies. ‎ D．Differences between male and female wild baboons.‎ ‎31.It can be inferred that wild baboons know the locations of__________.‎ A. grasses B. baobab trees C. elephant dung D. young antelopes D This could be the perfect gift for the partner, who embarrasses you on the dance floor. Smart socks, which can teach to dance, may be the answer for anyone with two left feet. The socks have been developed as a running tool to help runners improve their skills. Thanks to the socks, users can accurately record not only how far and fast they run but also how well. It means the user maximizes their performance, and reduces damage to body and prevents hurt. The hi-tech socks are made of special fibers that watch the movements of your feet. They look, feel and can be washed like normal clothes. Sensors (传感器) record each movement and send it by an ankle transmitter (脚踝发射器) to a smart phone. Then a “virtual coach” application shows the information and can tell the user what they are doing wrong, and help to improve skill in any task with feet. The socks should be useful to athletes and weekend joggers. “People think running is so easy and of course everybody can do it but not necessarily safely and well,” Dr Davide Vigano said. A recent study showed that between 60 and 80 percent of runners got hurt per year. This is pretty much more than any other human activity. Researchers say the technology can also be developed to teach people how to dance, play sports such golf, or even to help to teach women to walk better in high heels. Mr. Vigano said, “People could all benefit from the idea. We have had interest from all sorts of sports, like skiing, football, cycling and golf. Anything where you have to use your feet can use it. It could even be put in high heels to help women walk in them safely.” Socks are just the start, and the technology could be used in gloves, hats and boots. The socks, anklet and software package, are expected to be sold for around £120, which will go on sale in March. ‎ ‎32.What does the underlined part “anyone with two left feet” refer to? ‎ A. People who are disabled. B. People who are interested in dancing. C. People who are not good at dancing. D. People who invented the socks.‎ ‎33.What's special about fibers that the socks are made of? ‎ A. They feel much softer than normal clothes. B. They can monitor the movement of ‎ feet. C. They are expensive to produce. D. They act as a smart phone for users.‎ ‎34.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the socks? ‎ A. They can improve the skill of running. ‎ B. They can help women walk better in high heels. C. They can teach people to dance well. ‎ D. They can be worn for days without washing.‎ ‎35.According to Dr. Vigano, ________. ‎ A. everyone can make good use of the smart socks B. users can run as fast as they like with the socks C. 60 to 80 percent of runners would like to buy the smart socks D. no runners will get hurt, thanks to the socks 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。‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。‎ How do you stay true to yourself when you’re surrounded by friends and / or family that have an opinion on everything you do?
