【解析】

本文是說明文。研究人員從南極洲海岸附近的海底收集的一塊泥土沉積物中發(fā)現(xiàn):這些沉積物是在陸地上形成的,而不是在海洋中。

1

考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,句中已有謂語動詞,此處用非謂語。主語Antarctica和動詞contain是主動關(guān)系,用現(xiàn)在分詞形式作定語,故填containing。

2

考查定語從句。句中包含非限制性定語從句,先行詞是evidence,在定語從句中做主語,只能用關(guān)系代詞which引導(dǎo),故填which。

3

考查介詞。句意:但新的研究提供了證據(jù),證明這片區(qū)域與過去大不相同,它是在研究人員從南極洲海岸附近的海底收集的一塊泥土沉積物中發(fā)現(xiàn)的。表示“從,來自”,故填from。

4

考查動詞時態(tài)。此處講述通過研究泥土沉積物的發(fā)現(xiàn),是過去發(fā)生的事。與上下文時態(tài)一致,用一般過去時。故填found。

5

考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。animal是單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞,與主語和系動詞dinosaurs were一致用復(fù)數(shù),故填animals

6

考查過去分詞。句中findings和動詞publish是被動關(guān)系應(yīng)該用過去分詞,指這些發(fā)現(xiàn)被出版,故填published。

7

考查冠詞。此處指收集的沉積物來自海床下大約30米的深度,a depth of“……的深度”,故填a

8

考查副詞。修飾動詞undergoing用副詞,故填currently

9

考查動詞時態(tài)和主謂一致。根據(jù)句中時間狀語each year可知用一般現(xiàn)在時,主語the area表示單數(shù)意義,謂語動詞與之一致用第三人稱單數(shù),故填experiences。

10

考查形容詞。此處表示季節(jié)性降雪,修飾名詞snowfall用形容詞,故填seasonal

分析定語從句關(guān)鍵抓住兩點:第一、找準先行詞;第二、看先行詞在定語從句中所作的成分。先行詞往往為名詞或代詞,如小題2中包含非限制性定語從句,先行詞是evidence,在定語從句中做主語,只能用關(guān)系代詞which引導(dǎo)。

【題目】 Wang Zhonglin started playing table tennis only four years ago. But last year, he and other researchers came up with a clever way to up their game; Build a smart table.

Now they've built a prototype (樣品). It can measure where a ball lands, how fast the ball's going, where it's headed and the angle it was traveling. The table can do that because its special wood surface forms the top layer () of a novel self-powered sensor. The data it acquires could guide players to perform better.

Importantly, the new smart table won't need a battery to detect the ball. When a ball hits the wood, it sets off a chain of events that can both produce a small electric current(電流) and record measurements of the ball's behavior.

What makes the new game table truly unique is its use of wood as one of the layers because wood can produce electricity by rubbing against it. But Wang's group realized they couldn't rely on wood that comes directly from a tree. It's too hard and too easily broken. They needed a kind of wood that could bend. So they boiled the wood in chemicals for seven hours. Then they dipped the wood in boiling water. Once it came out of the boiling baths, the wood bent easily.

The scientists then cut the treated wood into small squares. Each measured just 1.8 inches on a side. Those squares became the top layer. Beneath this wood, they added a layer of metal to conduct electricity. They attached that layer to a metal wire. Then, instead of using a table-tennis ball, they hit the surface with a type of hard plastic. When it registered an electric current, they moved on to building a test table.

“It is amazing. To me, self-powered sensors of wood is the first move toward using energy harvesting and sensing in sports," said Askar, an engineer in Canada. And it need not end with table tennis, he added.

1What can we know about Wang's invention?

A.Its battery lasts very long.B.It sells well in the market.

C.It can accelerate the ball's speed.D.It can judge the ball's direction.

2Why did Wang use wood surface?

A.It is easy to get.B.It can produce electricity.

C.It is hard enough.D.It is environmentally friendly.

3What was the wood like after being treated?

A.It bent easily.B.It shrunk greatly.

C.It broke easily.D.It became harder.

4What can be inferred from Askar's words?

A.Sports meets will end with a table tennis match.

B.The technology will be used in other sports.

C.Table tennis isn't the first to use self-powered sensors.

D.The table tennis ball will be self-powered in the future.

【題目】閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容寫一篇 60 詞左右的內(nèi)容概要。

Perhaps you’ve heard the old saying “curiosity killed the cat.” It’s a phrase that's often used to warn people - especially children - not to ask too many questions. Yet it’s widely agreed that curiosity actually makes learning more effective. In fact, research has shown that curiosity is just as important as intelligence in determining how well students do in school.

Curiosity can also lead us to make unexpected discoveries, bring excitement into our lives, and open up new possibilities. In science, basic curiosity-driven research can have unexpected important benefits. For example,one day in 1831, Michael Faraday was playing around with a coil and a magnet when he suddenly saw how he could produce an electrical current. At first, it wasn't clear what use this would have, but it actually made electricity available for use in technology, and so changed the world.

However, curiosity is currently under the biggest threat, coming from technology. On one level, this is because technology has become so advanced that many of us are unable to think too deeply about how exactly things work any more. While it may be possible for a curious teenager to take a toaster apart and get some sense of how it works, how much do you understand about what happens when you type a website address into a browser? Where does your grasp of technology end and the magic begin for you?

In addition to this, there’s the fact that we all now connect so deeply with technology, particularly with our phones. The more we stare at our screens, the less we talk to other people directly. All too often we accept the images of people that social media provides us with. Then we feel we know enough about a person not to need to engage further with them.

That means we end up inside our own little bubbles, no longer coming across new ideas. Perhaps the real key to developing curiosity in the 21st century, then, is to rely less on the tech tools of our age.
