It was my mother’s idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition. With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was suppertime, I walked back home. “How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked. “None.” “Where did you go?” “The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.” “What did you do?” “Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.” “You just stood there?” “Didn’t sell a single one.” “My God, Russell!” Uncle Allen put in, “Well, I’ve decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickel(五分镍币). It was the first nickel I earned. Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home. One day, I told my mother I’d changed my mind. I didn’t want to make a success in the magazine business. “If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “you’ll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me. My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my father’s plain workman’s life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband’s people for true life and love. 36. Why did the boy start his job young? A. He wanted to be famous in the future. B. The job was quite easy for him. C. His mother had high hopes for him. D. The competition for the job was fierce. 37. From the dialogue between the boy and his mother, we learn that the mother was _______. A. excited B. interested C. ashamed D. disappointed 38. What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up? A. She forced him to continue. B. She punished him. C. She gave him some money. D. She changed her plan. 39. What does the underlined phrase “this battle”(last paragraph) refer to? A. The war between the boy’s parents. B. The arguing between the boy and his mother. C. The quarrel between the boy and his customers. D. The fight between the boy and his father. 40. What is the text mainly about? A. The early life of a journalist. B. The early success of a journalist. C. The happy childhood of the writer. D. The important role of the writer in his family. 本文是记叙文。讲述的是我在小的时候,妈妈对我有很高的期望值,所以让我很早就从事于报纸销售的工作,并叙述了具体的情况。 【答案】36. C 37. D 38. A 39. B 40. A 【解析】 36. 推理判断题。根据文章1,2行She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.说明妈妈希望我成为重要人物,所以希望我很早就开始。故C正确。 37. 推理判断题。根据“You just stood there?” “Didn’t sell a single one.” “My God, Russell!”可知妈妈对我一份报纸也没有卖掉感觉很失望。故D正确。 38. 细节理解题。根据文章倒数4,5行Whenever I said no, she would scold me. My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember.说明只要我要放弃妈妈就会责备我,迫使我继续努力。故A正确。 39. 词义猜测题。根据文章倒数第4行My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember.可知如果我想放弃,妈妈就会责备我。这是我和妈妈之间的战斗。故B正确。 40. 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述的是我在很小的时候就开始了卖报纸的活动,以及妈妈对我的教育。故A正确。 B Imagine looking at a view of mountaintops and wondering about the name of each peak. Suddenly, above each mountaintop, a name appears on the sky. The words are not written in smoke by skywriting planes. The words are actually not in the sky at all. They come from tiny computers in contact lenses (隐形眼镜). Computers have become smaller and smaller over the decades. The first computers filled houses. Transistors (晶体管) and then chips allowed computers to become small enough to fit on a desktop, then a laptop, and finally a phone. When experimenting with further contraction in size, developers often have to deal with the limits of human eyesight, which control how small the computers can be and still present visible information. One new solution employs microprojectors (微型投影机) to create a readable display (显示) for tiny computers. These machines project computer information onto any surface. Though an impressive breakthrough, there are potential problems. Such public displays can lead to privacy concerns; most people do not want their information displayed on a wall for everyone to see. Besides, these projectors are extremely expensive, and their screens give users headaches. Babak Parviz, a researcher at the University of Washington, created another solution: inventing a screen visible only to a person wearing a contact lens. Parviz created a computer in a contact lens that uses the wearer’s field of vision as the display. To create the display, Parviz took ordinary soft contact lenses with a wirelessly controlled system. At some point, Parviz says, it will be possible to connect the lens to a remote personal computer device such as a cellphone or a laptop. By looking in a certain direction, the wearer sends the computer visual information about what he or she sees. The device then uses this information to point out the names of peaks. These contact lenses are inserted and removed in much the same way as ordinary contact lenses. In addition, the computers in the lenses won’t block the wearer’s sight at all. Although now the computers are not on lenses treating eyesight problems, Parviz hopes that someday the technology will progress to that level. 41. The contact lenses in the text can ________. A. treat eyesight problems B. offer beautiful views of nature C. project information on wall surface D. show information about what wearers see 42. The underlined word “contraction” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by________. A. expansion B. spread C. reduction D. revolution 43. According to Paragraph 3, the microprojectors ________. A. put people’s privacy at risk B. save computer information C. cause serious illnesses D. support users’ needs 44. According to the passage, these contact lenses contribute to ________. A. saving users’ expenses B. reducing computers’ size C. limiting the field of vision D. guarding remote computers 45. What might be the best title for the passage? A. Tiny Computers, Amazing Sights B. Smaller Lenses, Closer Views C. Progress towards Clearness D.

But those who are early to bed and early to rise do not always have the upper hand, researchers say. They have found that night owls are generally brighter and wealthier than those able to get up early in the morning. Experts from the University of Madrid carried out tests on around 1,000 teenagers and found that those who preferred to stay up late proved the kind of intelligence associated with honored jobs and higher incomes. “Larks” or “morning people”, however, often acquired better exam results, possibly because lessons are held at the wrong time of day for night owls. The researchers examined the habits and body clocks of the youngsters to determine whether they liked to stay up late and sleep in later in the morning, or preferred to go to bed early and were at their peak in the morning. School performance and inductive(归纳的)intelligence, or problem solving, were measured and academic grades in the major subjects were also taken into account. The results showed that evening types scored higher than morning types on inductive reasoning, which has been shown to be a good estimate of general intelligence and a strong indicator of academic performance. They also had a greater capacity to think conceptually as well as analytically. Such abilities have been linked to innovative(创新的) thinking, more admired occupations and better incomes. Famous night owls include President Trump, Obama, Charles Darwin, Winston Churchill, Keith Richards and Elvis Presley. George W. Bush, who is regularly in bed by 10 p.m., Thomas Edison, Napoleon, Condoleezza Rice, who wakes at 4:30 a.m., and Ernest Hemingway are among those known as larks. Jim Horne, professor of psychophysiology at Lough borough University, said, “Evening types tend to be the more active and creative types, the poets, artists and inventors, while the morning types are the deducers(推断者), as are often seen with civil servants and accountants.” A previous study of US Air Force recruits found that evening types were much better at thinking to solve problems than larks. 46. What does the word “lark” mean in the text? A. A bird of prey that flies in the morning. B. A bird of prey that is a symbol of wisdom. C. A kind of person who goes to bed early and wakes up early. D. A kind of person who has honored jobs and higher incomes. 47. What characteristics do night owls have? A. Night owls are much healthier, wealthier and wiser. B. Night owls are not good at inductive reasoning. C. Night owls stay up late and wake up early in the morning. D. Night owls are expert in analyzing and innovative thinking 48. What’s the author’s attitude towards night owls? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Subjective. D. Negative. 49. From the passage, we can infer that ______________. A. The early bird will catch the worm. B. Morning types have a tendency to do some creative jobs. C. Night owls can do better in the examinations if lessons are held in the right time. D. President Trump, Winston Churchill and George W. Bush are models of night owls. 50. According to the writer’ what kind of job is an evening type likely to do in the future? A. A fashion designer B. A social worker C. An accountant D. A government employee 本文是议论文。文章将早睡早起型的人和夜猫子型的人进行对比,分析他们的思维特点,以及他们擅长从事哪方面的工作。 【答案】46. C 47. D 48. B 49. C 50. A 【解析】 46. 词义猜测题。根据文章第二段those who are early to bed and early to rise和第三段“Larks” or “morning people”可知,lark“云雀”指早睡早起的人。故选C项。 47. 推理判断题。根据第三段The results showed that evening types scored higher than morning types on inductive reasoning, which has been shown to be a good estimate of general intelligence and a strong indicator of academic performance. They also had a greater capacity to think conceptually as well as analytically. Such abilities have been linked to innovative(创新的) thinking, more admired occupations and better incomes,结果表明,夜猫子型的人在归纳推理上的得分高于早睡早起型的人,这也显示他们一般的智力良好,暗示学业成绩也好。他们还具有更强的概念和分析思维能力。这种能力与创新思维、更受赞赏的职业和更高的收入有关。因此夜猫子在分析和归纳思维能力方面更强。故选D项。 48. 推理判断题。我们将早睡早起型和夜猫子型两种人的能力进行对比,早睡早起的人更擅长于考试,夜猫子型的人在归纳能力和分析问题能力方面更胜一筹。作者是客观评价夜猫子型的人。故选B项。 49. 推理判断题。根据第三段:“Larks” or “morning people”, however, often acquired better exam results, possibly because lessons are held at the wrong time of day for night owls可知,早睡早起的人往往获得更好的考试成绩,这可能是因为对于夜猫子来说,课程是在白天错误的时间进行的,夜猫子往往学习效果不好。如果考试是在夜猫子学习效果好的时间进行, 他们 会考得更好。故选C项。 50. 推理判断题。根据第四段“Evening types tend to be the more active and creative types, the poets, artists and inventors, while the morning types are the deducers(推断者), as are often seen with civil servants and accountants.” A previous study of US Air Force recruits found that evening types were much better at thinking to solve problems than larks可知,夜猫子型的人往往更活跃、更有创造力,适合当诗人、艺术家和发明家;而早起型的人则善于推断 ,比如公务员和会计。“时装设计师”A fashion designer从事的是艺术和创造性的工作, 夜猫子型的人擅长这一点。故选A项。 【点睛】长难句的阅读理解方法——结构分析法 所谓结构分析法,就是通过语法分析,迅速弄清句子的结构,把握住句子的基本框架。基本步骤是:首先,判断该句是简单句、并列句还是复合句;然后,找出句子的核心成分,分清主语和谓语,再分清句子的附属成分。 1、 带有较多成分的简单句 分析方法——找主谓语,即找主干成分。 如:第四段中George W. Bush, who is regularly in bed by 10 p.m., Thomas Edison, Napoleon, Condoleezza Rice, who wakes at 4:30 a.m., and Ernest Hemingway are among those known as larks. 分析:此句是简单句,并列成分作主语,句子主干部分George W. Bush…, Thomas Edison, Napoleon, Condoleezza Rice,… and Ernest Hemingway are among those…., 其中有两个定语从句who is regularly in bed by 10 p.m.和who wakes at 4:30 a.m.,表语中known as larks是过去分词做定语。 句意:乔治·W·布什(George W.Bush)经常在晚上10点之前上床睡觉,托马斯·爱迪生(Thomas Edison)、拿破仑(Napoleon)、康多莉扎·赖斯(Condoleezza Rice)在凌晨4点半起床,欧内斯特·海明威(Ernest Hingmingway)也是被称为百灵鸟的人。 2、含有多个简单句的并列句 分析方法——找并列连词 如:第四段中Evening types tend to be the more active and creative types, the poets, artists and inventors, while the morning types are the deducers(推断者), as are often seen with civil servants and accountants. 分析:此句是由while连接的两个并列句。第一句主干部分是Evening types tend to be the more active and creative types…, 其中有and 连接的并列成分 the poets, artists and inventors;第二句主干部分是the morning types are the deducers(推断者)。 句意:夜猫子型的人往往更活跃、更有创造力,比如诗人、艺术家和发明家;而早睡早起型的人则善于推断 ,比如公务员和会计。 3、含有多个从句的复合句 分析方法——找从属连词 如:第三段中 The results showed that evening types scored higher than morning types on inductive reasoning, which has been shown to be a good estimate of general intelligence and a strong indicator of academic performance. 分析:此句中含有两个复合句,句子主干部分The results showed that…, that后是宾语从句,其中有定语从句which has been shown to be…,定语从句中有and 连接的并列成分a good estimate of… and a strong indicator of ….。 句意:结果表明,夜猫子型的人在归纳推理上的得分高于早起型的人,这已显示他们在一般智力方面评估良好,暗示学业成绩也很好。 第II卷非选择题部分(共三大题,满分35分) 四、语法填空(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分) 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 A serious weather warning has been announced as more than two inches of rain is expected to fall in parts of the UK on Monday, according to ___51___ Met Office.
