In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives（观点）by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in. ‎ With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own ‎ voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has. ‎ Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction. As a law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter — the volume（量）of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn’t necessarily be able to have in my lifetime. ‎ ‎24. What can be inferred about the author as a child?‎ A. He never watched TV. B. He read what he had to. ‎ C. He found reading unbelievable. D. He considered reading part of his life.‎ ‎25. The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means _________. ‎ A. the ability to speak B. a way of writing C. a sound quality D. a world to write about ‎26. What effect does reading have on the author?‎ A. It opens up a wider world for him.‎ B. It helps him to realize his dream.‎ C. It makes his college life more interesting. ‎ D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel. ‎ ‎27. Which of the following can be the best title of this text?‎ A. How do I read? B. What do I read? C. Why do I read? D. When do I read?‎ C Andres Segovia was born in Linares, Spain, on February 18, 1894, and raised in ‎ Granada. He was taught piano and violin at an early age, but was not truly drawn to music until hearing the sound of a guitar. Ignoring the disagreement of his family and his teachers at the Granada Musicians Institute, Segovia insisted on learning to play the guitar. Unable to find an experienced teacher, he decided to teach himself.‎ In Segovia’s day the guitar was considered little more than a bar instrument, suitable for accompanying songs and dances and little else. But Segovia believed otherwise. He set a goal — to bring guitar studies to every university in the world, to have the guitar played on every major stage, and to pass on his love of the guitar to generations to follow. He succeeded in all aspects.‎ Segovia made his public debut (首演) in 1909, in Granada. The debut was more than successful and before long he had gained an international reputation. Although Segovia enjoyed great success in the early years of his career he was still hampered by the lack of music written specially for the guitar. He had to rely heavily on Renaissance and Baroque pieces composed for other instruments. But then he discovered a body of works by Johann Sebastian Bach that proved well suited to the guitar. Segovia’s transcriptions (改编) of these works and playing of them went a long way toward proving his claim that the guitar had a place on the concert stage.‎ In addition to proving the musical qualities and abilities of the guitar, Segovia also helped design what is now known as the classical guitar, the improved shape of which allowed Segovia to play in larger concert halls. He also worked hard to inspire composers to write music for the guitar, often under his direct guidance.‎ Segovia continued performing and teaching into his old age. He died in Madrid on June 3, 1987.‎ ‎28. When Segovia was young, . ‎ A. he was not good at playing the violin B. his parents taught him to play the piano at home C. his parents didn’t support him in learning to play the guitar D. he learned to play the guitar from an experienced teacher ‎29. The underlined word “hampered” in Paragraph 3 can be best replaced by ‎ ‎“ ”.‎ A. used B. limited C. inspired D attracted ‎30. What do we know about Segovia?‎ A. He was once instructed by Johann Sebastian Bach.‎ B. He made the guitar important place on the stage.‎ C. He devoted his life to composing modern music.‎ D. He was the inventor of the electric guitar.‎ ‎31. The author writes the text mainly to . ‎ A. introduce the history of the guitar B. prove the importance of the guitar C. show the achievements of a Spanish guitarist D. describe the personal life of a famous musician D See a cellphone cover that you like on Taobao? Forget about placing an order, paying the bill online and waiting for days for it to be delivered to you. In the near future, you'll be able to get it in minutes just by hitting “print” on your computer.‎ ‎　 You might find it hard to believe that you could actually “print” an object like you would a picture. But it is not that hard to understand how it would work. Just as a traditional printer sprays (喷) ink onto paper line by line, modern 3D printers spread material onto a surface layer by layer, from the bottom to the top, gradually building up a shape.‎ ‎　 Instead of ink, the materials the 3D printer uses are mainly plastic, resin(树脂) and certain metals. The thinner each layer is—from a millimetre to less than the width of a hair—the smoother and finer the object will be.‎ ‎　 This may sound like a completely new technology, but the truth is that 3D printing has been around since the late 1980s. Back then, it was barely affordable for most people, so few knew about it.‎ ‎ Last year, though, saw a big change in the 3D printing industry—printers became much cheaper. For example, 10 years ago a desktop 3D printer might have cost ‎ ￡20，000, while now they cost only about ￡1，000, according to the BBC.‎ ‎ Taken out of the factory and introduced to more diverse and common uses, 3D printing can create just about anything you can think of—flutes (笛子), bikinis, jewelry, aircraft parts and even human organs. In fact, scientists from Cornell University in New York have just made an artificial ear using a 3D printer, according to Science Daily. The fake ear looks and acts exactly like a natural one.‎ ‎ However, as 3D printing becomes more common, it may bring about certain problems—such as piracy. “Once you can download a coffee maker, or print out a new set of kitchen utensils (餐具) on your personal 3D printer, who will visit a retail (零售的) store again？” an expert in 3D printing told Forbes News. Even more frightening, what if anyone in the world could use a 3D printer to print out a fully functioning gun?‎ ‎32.According to the article, in the future, the 3D printing technology will _______. ‎ ‎ A .enable people to make better purchases online ‎　 B. change the way we make many products ‎　 C .be applied as widely in our daily life as computers ‎　 D. shorten the time it takes for people to get what they buy online ‎33.What happened in the 3D printing industry last year? ‎ ‎ A. The 3D printing technology was taken out of the factory.‎ ‎　 B. The 3D printing technology began to be used in various fields.‎ ‎　 C. The 3D printer was used for medical treatment for the first time.‎ ‎　 D. The 3D printer became more affordable for consumers.‎ ‎34.How is the last paragraph developed? ‎ ‎　 A. By giving examples.　 B. By making comparisons.‎ ‎　 C. By analyzing the cause and effect.　 D.By presenting research findings.‎ ‎35.What is the best title of the passage? ‎ ‎　 A .Great Demand for 3D Printers　　 B. Technology in the Future ‎　 C. Online Shopping Disappearing　　 D .Printing out Everything 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。‎ Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life. Every waking moment, the eyes are working to see the world around us. Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight, but it’s easy to include steps into our daily life to ensure healthy eyes. Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight:‎ ‎●Schedule yearly exams.　36　Experts advise parents to bring babies 6 to 12 months of age to the doctor for a careful check. The good news is that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment, including eyeglasses.‎ ‎●Protect against UV rays(紫外线). Long-term stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes. No matter what the season is, it’s extremely important to wear sunglasses.　37　 ‎ ‎●Give your eyes a break. Two-thirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital products.　38　Experts recommend that people practice the 20/20/20 rule: every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away.‎ ‎●　39　As part of a healthy diet, eat more fruits and vegetables each day.
