Ⅰ. 阅读理解 A ‎ A new library in Tianjin—Tianjin Binhai Public Library—recently became an online hit. The Daily Mail described it as the “world’s ultimate (终极的) library”, while the word “breathtaking” was the choice of Newsweek magazine. One look at the library and you’ll see why. With its futuristic (未来主义) design and walls loaded with books, it’s the dream library of every book lover.‎ ‎ But as the surprise continues, there’s a burning question lying in the back of our minds: When physical bookstores are closing down one by one, what makes libraries safe from the wave of digitalization (数码化)? And do we really still need libraries now that we’ve got the Internet in our hands?‎ ‎ Reporter Ian Clark has the answer. “Libraries are not declining in importance—people are simply changing the way they use them,” he wrote on the Guardian website.‎ ‎ What Clark means is that libraries have shifted from simply being storehouses of books to a medium to help “bridge the gap between the haves and the have-nots” according to website Libraries Are Essential. Since not everyone can afford a smartphone, a tablet or an Internet connection, and not everyone has the know-how to search the Internet correctly and efficiently, it’s public libraries that make sure that these resources and technologies are available to a larger group of people.‎ ‎ “Nobody is trying to sell you anything in the library. There is no pressure to buy and there is no judgment of your choices/’ Anne Goulding, a professor at Victoria University in New Zealand, wrote on the Newsroom website. “There are few other spaces that you can just ‘be’ without somebody questioning your presence or your motivation.”‎ ‎1.

People’s dream libraries.‎ B ‎ Babbage, born in London in 1791, was a great mathematical genius. He was a natural inventor.‎ When he finished school, he went to study mathematics at Cambridge University. Later, he got a job teaching at the university. While working there, he designed his “first difference engine”. This was, basically, a hand-operated mechanical calculator.‎ ‎ He took nine years to build a part of the machine. This machine can make complex mathematical calculations. It’s a basic mechanical computer.‎ ‎ Babbage dreamed, however, of more complicated machines. In fact, he didn’t only dream; he began to design them. The result was a series of “analytical engines” which were in fact powerful computers!‎ ‎ His designs contained processors, control units, a memory, and an input/output system. These are the four essential parts of a modern mathematical computer!‎ ‎ Alas! His “second difference engine” couldn’t use electricity since this hadn’t yet become a usable source of power, so Babbage had to make do with mechanical systems. For this reason, the machine was big, complicated and expensive. Though Babbage produced complete plans for the machine, he couldn’t build it. It was too advanced for its age!‎ ‎ It was not until almost 160 years later that Babbage’s “second difference engine” was finally manufactured. The first working version of this machine was built by the Science Museum in London, for the Babbage bicentenary in 1991. A second machine was then built for an American high-tech millionaire, who put it in the Computer History Museum, in California.‎ ‎ Babbage’s analytical engines would have used “programs” like those used in the textile(纺织)industry to make complicated patterns, but they were never built. This brilliant mathematician really was too far ahead of his time!‎ ‎5. Where did Babbage plan his “first difference engine”?‎ ‎ A. In London ‎ ‎ B. At high school ‎ C. At Cambridge ‎ ‎ D. In Science Museum ‎6. What do we know about his “second difference engine”?‎ ‎ A. It took him nine years to build it ‎ ‎ B. It was far ahead of its time ‎ C. Its deign came out in his dreams ‎ ‎ D. Its power source was electricity ‎7. The “second difference engine” was built to work in 1991 ____________.‎ ‎ A. for an American millionaire ‎ B. in memory of Babbage ‎ C. to test its ability to use electricity ‎ D. for textile industry to make patterns ‎8. What can we infer from the text?‎ ‎ A. Babbage’s engines didn’t run on programs ‎ B. Textile patterns are produced with programs ‎ C. Babbage can be seen as the father of computers ‎ D. Babbage’s analytical engines were never built Ⅱ. 完形填空 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ A few years ago I invited some friends to have a party in my house.

Researchers have developed a way to create the power equivalent (相当于)of two double-A batteries, using nothing more than motion of the human body.‎ ‎ 1 The energy is captured and used by nano generators(纳米发电机）, according to a team of scientists from Georgia Institute of Technology. This research, presented at a meeting of the American Chemical Society, demonstrated how a small, flexible chip containing millions of tiny wires—500 times thinner than a human hair—could use the human heart to create electrical energy. 2 ‎ ‎ Any kind of bodily movement could theoretically be used to generate power, and nano wires can also generate electricity in response to wind, rolling tires, or other kinds of motion. 3 But these most recent findings do signal a breakthrough.‎ ‎ Researchers are convinced the technology has a future. “A few volts may not seem like much. 4 ” said the project’s lead scientist, Zhong Lin Wang. "Additional nano wires and more nano generators, put together, could produce enough energy for powering larger electronics. 5 ”‎ A. The technology is not new.‎ B. Then we can use it to charge an iPod or a cell phone.‎ C. Anything from walking to a standing heartbeat could produce energy.‎ D. So it is necessary to save energy in case we run out of it at the sky point.‎ E. There is still a long way to apply this kind of technology in our daily life.‎ F.
