一、阅读理解 A Susan Brownell Anthony was a lady ahead of her time.She fought for women's rights long before they became a popular iue.Susan was born on February 15,1820, in Adams, Maachusetts.At that time, women had few rights.They could not own property.Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband.Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers.Women could not vote.At the age of 15, Susan became a schoolteacher.She taught for 15 years.Then she began organizing women's groups to promote causes that were important to women.She helped gain better educational rights for women.She helped give married women poeion of their earnings.After the Civil War, Susan became very involved in the women's suffrage movement.After years of lecturing, writing, and appealing by Susan and other women, some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote.The first state was Wyoming in 1869.Other areas and states gradually followed Wyoming's decision.It was not until 1920 that the U.S.Constitution was changed to give all women voting rights.Susan Brownell Anthony died in 1906 at the age of 86.She was elected to the Hall of Fame for Great Americans in 1950.She was the first American woman to have a likene(肖像)of her face on a coin.It was the 1979 Susan Brownell Anthony dollar.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了美国历史上著名的女权运动领袖Susan Brownell Anthony。她努力为妇女争取了财产权、投票权等权利。
【难句分析】Then she began organizing women's groups to promote causes that were important to women.(第三段第二句)分析:该句为主从复合句,句中that were important to women为that引导的定语从句,修饰先行词causes。
译文:随后她开始组织妇女群体加速实现对妇女来说重要的目标。
1.What was the situation of American women like when Susan was born? A.They had low social status.B.They could vote after getting married.C.They managed money for their husbands.D.They were responsible for decisionmaking.答案与解析:A'考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“At that time,women had few rights.They could not own property.Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband.Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers.Women could not vote.”可知,在那时,女性没有什么权利,地位是低下的,故A项正确。B、C和D项均与此表述不符。
2.What is the third paragraph mainly about? A.Susan's teaching experiences.B.Susan's educational background.C.Susan's efforts to abolish slavery.D.Susan's fighting for women's causes.答案与解析:D'考查段落大意。通读第三段尤其是“Then she began organizing women's groups to promote causes that were important to women.”可知,本段主要讲述Susan Brownell Anthony为争取女权而斗争的情况,故D项正确。A项仅为细节之一,无法概括该段大意;B项文中没有提及;根据第三段的“Then she began organizing women's groups to promote causes that were important to women”可知,Susan Brownell Anthony为争取女权而斗争,而不是为废除奴隶制而斗争,故C项错误。What does the word “decision” in the fourth paragraph refer to? A.Promoting the social movement.B.Changing the U.S.Constitution.C.Giving women voting rights.D.Uniting other areas and states.答案与解析:C'考查词义猜测。根据第四段第二句中的“some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote”可知,在Susan Brownell Anthony的努力下,美国一些地区修改了法律,给了妇女投票权;结合该段第三、四句“The first state was Wyoming in 1869.Other areas and states gradually followed Wyoming's decision”可以判断,画线词指代“给妇女投票权”这一决定,故C项正确。
4.What may be the best title for the text? A.The first American woman to invent coins B.The problem of women's rights in the U.S.C.The most popular women organizations D.A pioneer in fighting for women's rights 答案与解析:D'考查标题判断。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了美国历史上著名的女权运动领袖Susan Brownell Anthony。她为妇女争取了财产权、投票权等权利。据此可知D
项最适合作文章标题。
B A busine school in Paris will soon begin using artificial intelligence and facial analysis to determine whether students are paying attention in cla.The software, called Nestor, is used in two online claes at the ESG busine school beginning in September.The idea, according to LCA founder Marcel Saucet, is to use the data that Nestor collects to improve the performance of both students and profeors.The software uses students webcams(网络摄像机)to analyze eye movements and facial expreions and determine whether students are paying attention to a video lecture.It then formulates quizzes based on the content covered during moments of inattentivene.Profeors would also be able to identify moments when students’ attention declined, which could help to improve their teaching, Saucet says.Advocates for AI in education say that the software is actually unable to teach a course, but the technology could be used as a digital tutor that would adapt to a student’s individual needs, and help develop more effective studying habits.Such software could also help teachers by providing feedback on the effectivene of their teaching, advocates say.Saucet says Nestor won’t store any of the video footage it gets and that his company has no plans to sell any other data the software collects.In addition to facial recognition and analysis, the software can integrate(合并)with students’ calendars to suggest poible study times, and track their online behavior to pick up on patterns.Rose Luckin, a profeor at the University College London Knowledge Lab, says AI could unlock the “black box of learning” by providing information on how and when learning happens.Luckin says a program like Nestor could be useful for students who take claes remotely, since “there isn’t a human there watching them.” And while some are concerned that AI may one day replace teachers, Luckin sees the technology more as an aistant, rather than a replacement.Saucet agrees.“Human contact is not going to go away,” he says.“There will always be profeors.” 1.How does Nestor work to find out when students aren’t paying attention?
A.By collecting the data of students’ performance in different claes.B.By collecting the students’ grades in the quizzes.C.By shooting and analyzing students’ eye movements and facial expreions..D.By identifying moments when students’ attention declined.2.Which is the benefit of AI education? A.It could be used exactly to replace a tutor.B.It helps student to develop more effective studying habits.C.The software is able to satisfy the requirement of a course.D.It could help teachers to give feedback on students’ performance..3.How does Nestor deal with the information collected from students? A.Nestor will use it to suggest poible study time to students’ schedule.B.It won’t store any video footage but facial expreion.C.The company hasn’t expected to make profits by selling the data to other corporations..D.Nestor will use it to keep track online of students’ behavior and punish them.4.What is Rose Luckin’s attitude towards the replacement of teachers with AI? A.Objective.C.Indifferent.B.Approving.D.Opposed.【文章大意】本文介绍新的软件Nestor。它通过对学生眼球运动和面部表情的拍摄和分析来判断学生是否注意力集中。这种软件只对教学其辅助作用并不能替代老师。
2.B 【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段第一句Advocates for AI in education say that the software is actually unable to teach a course, but the technology could be used as a digital tutor that would adapt to a student’s individual needs, and help develop more effective studying habits.可知AI education帮助学生养成更有效的学习习惯。故选B。
4.D 【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中And while some are concerned that AI may one day replace teachers, Luckin sees the technology more as an aistant, rather than a replacement.Saucet agrees.可知Rose Luckin’对AI成为老师的替代品持反对意见。故选D。
二、七选五
Which is much more significant to you when you are finding a job?Working experience or an advanced degree?Well,I believe diverse people have different answers.1 Here are some reasons:
Above all,most of jobs don't require such a high degree,which means just some work,such as theoretical physics,archaeology,or literature,needs high academic qualification.2 For example,when you are offering a department manager post,and there is a man who has already been a manager for three years but only has a master's degree and an inexperienced person with a doctor's degree,which one would you choose?Definitely the first one for the manager who doesn't acquire a doctor's degree but has rich working experience.3 For instance,Bill Gates,who was the richest man in the world and one of the most succeful merchants.What a wise choice when he decided to abandon studying so that he could gain more working experience instead of a doctor's degree!Or Steve Paul Jobs,who discontinued his study at the age of nineteen in order to become a member of a computer company just like Bill Gates.4 5 Maybe you shouldn't have to gain an advanced or high degree,but that doesn't mean nothing.Probably a bachelor's degree is still neceary in this fiercely competitive society.All in all,I think rich working experience is much more important than an advanced
degree.A.However,a degree is still required for most people.B.Meanwhile,rich working experience will draw more attention.C.Secondly,plenty of experience will bring you succe much earlier.D.In my view,either working experience or an advanced degree counts.E.As for me,I will say working experience without hesitation.F.As a matter of fact,more people with rich working experience become succeful.G.From all of these,we can see that an advanced degree isn't so neceary as working experience.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。论述了工作经验是工作成功的最重要的因素这一论点。1.E [根据空处位置可知,空处承上启下,根据该段第二句“Working experience or an advanced degree?”可知,空处提出自己的观点并引出下文,故E项与此处匹配。] 2.B [根据本段最后一句“Definitely the first one for the manager who doesn't acquire a doctor's degree but has rich working experience.”并结合空后所列举的例子可知,该例旨在证明丰富的工作经验在应聘时更受欢迎,故B项与此处匹配。] 3.C [根据空处所在的位置可知,空处为本段的主题句;根据本段列举的比尔·盖茨放弃学业创业成功和乔布斯在十九岁时辍学这两个例子可以判断,本段旨在说明丰富的工作经验能促使人早日成功,故C项正确。] 4.G [根据该空所在的位置可知,该空总结本段大意;由空前列举的比尔·盖茨和乔布斯这两个例子可以判断,高学历不如工作经验重要,故G项正确。] 5.A [根据空处所在的位置可知,空处为本段的主题句;由本段最后一句“Probably a bachelor's degree is still neceary in this fiercely competitive society.”可知,在这个竞争激烈的社会中,学历仍然是有必要的。据此可以判断,本段主要陈述学历对于大部分人来说还是需要的,故A项正确。]
三、短文改错 Body and Food Our body, which has close relations with the food that we eat 1 our daily life, is the most important thing that we own, so our body 2(need)proper treatment and proper nourishment(营养).The old saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" is not as silly as some people think.The body needs fruit 3 vegetables, such as apples, pears, banana, carrots and cabbages, because they contain vitamin C, 4 is very neceary and important to us all.It’s clear that a lack of vitamin C can make people ill and weak easily.In order to get enough needed vitamins, many people take extra vitamins in pill form, 5(believe)that these will make them 6(health).But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins that we need.The body doesn’t need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them? Nowadays many people are too busy to bother about eating properly.They throw anything into their 7(stomach), eating something carelely and 8(hurried).The list of illnees 9(cause)or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening.It is high time we should realize the importance of having a good diet.If not, it is impoible for 10(we)to keep fit and strong.【文章大意】健康的饮食对我们的健康有很大的好处,所以我们一定要注意自己的饮食习惯。1.in 【解析】考查介词。in our daily life在我们的日常生活中。2.needs 【解析】考查谓语动词。本处谈常态的事情,应用一般现在时;结合主语our body应用单数第三人称形式。3.and 【解析】考查并列连词。我们的身体需要水果和蔬菜。and和,连接两个并列成分。4.which
