第1题:

This is not the world we know. This world is controlled by computers. Men and women can be seen, but they are following the orders given to them by machines. The machines were designed by mad scientists, but at some point even the mad scientists were taken over by their super-inventions.

Does this sound familiar? You have probably read something like it in magazines or books, or seen it in a film. Why is it so popular? One of the reasons is that it reflects the fears of many people; fear of the unknown fear of what is not understood or, at least, fear of something that is not completely understood.

The fact is that every day it seems that computers take control of another area of our lives. Some

factory jobs are now done by robots and the robots are controlled by computers. Our bank accounts are managed by computers. At the airport, our tickets are sold by a computer. Certainly, many of these operations are made more

efficient by computers, but our admiration is sometimes mixed with unsafe feelings. And this lack of safety is caused by the fact that we do not know how computers do these things, and we really don't know what they might do next. But we can find out how computers work, and once we understand them, we can use computers instead of worrying about being used by them. Today, there is a new generation of computer wizards who know exactly how computers get things done. These young men and women, usually university students, are happy to sit for hours, sometimes for days, designing programs, not eating, not sleeping, but discovering what can be done by these wonderful slaves which they have learned to control. These computer wizards have learned to use the computer and search for new tasks for their machines.

A:mad scientists

B:men and women

C:the unknown fear

D:some super-inventions

A:computers can be controlled by man

B:there should be more people devoted to computers

C:only young people are interested in computers

D:more time and energy is required to control computers

(4)、This passage is probably written to suggest that ______ .

A:some day computers can deal with all human problems

B:computers can be used in place of traveling to our jobs

C:people should not fear computers

第5题:

There is a certain inevitability that ebook sales have now overtaken paperback sales on Amazon’s US site.Amazon’s
Kindle 2 is so light and so cheap that it’s easy to see why people have rushed to buy it.Though I’m still not keen on the design of the Kindle,it is a vast improvement on its predecessor and certainly tolerable.Beyond the device itself,Amazon has done a great job of rolling out Kindle apps,ensuring that people like me-who have an iPad but not a Kindle can still join in the fun.
Once you’re into the Kindle ecosystem,Amazon locks you in tightly-just as Apple does with its iTunes/iPod ecosystem.It’s so easy to buy from Amazon’s store and the books are so cheap that it’s not worth the effort of going elsewhere.
While I remain opposed to Amazon’s DRM(数字版权管理)-indeed,I’m opposed to DRM on any ebooks-I have to admit
that the implementation is so smooth that most Kindle users won’t care at all that their ebooks can’t be moved to other
devices.
The ebook trend is nowhere near peaking.Over the next five years we can expect to see more and more readers move away from printed books and pick up ebooks instead.But I don’t think that will mean the death of the printed book.
There are some who prefer printed books.They like having shelves filled with books they’ve read and books they plan to
read;they like the feel of the book in their hands and the different weights and typefaces and layouts of different titles.In other words,they like the physical form of the book almost as much as the words it contains.
I can sympathize with those people.As I wrote earlier this week,my ideal situation would be for publishers to bundle
e-books with printed ones-in much the same way that film studio DVDs with digital copies of films.There’s no reason to think
that lovers of printed books will change their minds.There will undoubtedly be fewer of them as time goes by because more
people will grow up with ebooks and spend little time with printed ones.However,just as there are people who love vinyl
records(黑胶唱片),even if they were born well into the CD era,there will still be a dedicated minority who love physical books.
Since there are fewer of these people,that will mean fewer bookshops and higher prices for printed books but I don’t think the picture is entirely bleak.There is scope for smaller print runs of lavishly designed printed books and bookshops aimed at
book lovers,rather than the Stieg Larsson-reading masses.With mainstream readers out of the printed book market,
booklovers might even find they get a better experience.


According to the passage,the reason why the author opposes to Amazon’s DRM is that______.《》()

A.ebooks can only be purchased on Amazon.com
B.Kindle books are not compatible with other electronic reading devices
C.once implemented,ebooks can’t be transferred to other equipments
D.ebooks installed on Kindle 2 can’t be edited freely

答案:C
解析:
本题考查细节。
由题干中的Amazon's DRM定位到第二段第一句提到“我不得不承认安装过程实在是太便捷了,以至于大多数Kindle用户并不介意电子书无法安装到其他设备上”,由此可知电子书一旦安装后,不可以在其他设备上再次使用,C 中的transfer,equipments分别对应定位句中的move和devices,综上,C选项正确。
A选项,“电子书只能在亚马逊网站上购买”原文并未提及,故排除。
B选项,“Kindle电子书与其他电子阅读设备不兼容”是对定位句的曲解,故排除。
D选项,“在Kindle 2上安装的电子书不能随意编辑” 原文并未提及,故排除。
故正确选项为C。

第8题:

Passage One

Long time ago, the ancient people could not travel to any far away places for they had no vehicle to carry them across the wide oceans, deep valleys, long rivers or high mountains.

Nowadays people take advantage of steamships, trains, airplanes and modern bridges. Airplanes can carry us to the far countries in a short time; steamships can travel across the wide oceans. It is convenient to the modern people.

Travelling is a good idea to us because we can get more knowledge, such as the customs, the geography of other countries. And people could travel among the different countries in the world. For it is easy to travel from the land by trains, or from the sea by ships.

We learnt that the Italian who made the world large was Mr. Columbus. He was a brave man. Up to the middle of the 15th century, the people were afraid of traveling because they believed it was a dangerous thing.

There is a saying in China, which is "Travelling for thousands is better than reading for ten years." It is to say that we can learn more in different places than we can learn from books.

36. The people in ancient times couldn't travel too far away places because______.

A. they found it no use doing so

B. they liked staying at home

C. there was no modern transportation

D. they were forbidden to go to other countries


正确答案:C

此题为细节题。见在第一段内the ancient people could not travel to any faraway places for they had no instruments说明古人出游不能离家太远作长途旅行的原因;没有现代的交通工具。

第三篇

People have been painting pictures for at least 30,000 years.The earliest pictures were painted by people who hunted animals.They used to paint pictures of the animals they wanted to catch and kill.Pictures of this kind have been found on the walls of caves in France and Spain.No one knows why they were painted there.Perhaps the painters thought that their pictures would help them to catch these animals.Or perhaps human beings have always wanted to tell stories in pictures.
About 5,000 years ago,the Egyptians and other people in the Near East began to use pictures as kind of writing. They drew simple pictures or signs to represent things and ideas,and also to represent the sounds of their language.The signs there people used became a kind of alphabet.
The Egyptians used to record information and to tell stories by putting picture-writing and pictures together. When an important person died,scenes and stories from his life were painted and carved on the walls of the place where he was buried.Some of these pictures are like modern comic strip stones.It has been said that Egypt is the home of the comic strip.But for Egyptians,pictures still had magic power. So they did not try to make their way of writing simple.The ordinary people could not understand it.
By the year 1000 BC,people who lived in the area around the Mediterranean Sea had developed a simpler system of writing. The signs they used were very easy to write,and there were fewer of them than in the Egyptian system.This was because each sign,or letter,represented only one sound in their language.The Greeks developed this system and formed the letters of the Greek alphabet.The Romans copied the idea and the Roman alphebet is now used all over the world.
These days,we can write down a story,or record information,without using pictures.But we still need pictures of all kinds:drawing,photographs,signs and diagrams.We find them everywhere:in books and newspapers,in the street,and on the walls of the places where we live and work.Pictures help us to understand and remember things more easily,and they can make a story much more interesting.

Pictures of animals were painted on the walls of caves in France and Spain because______.
A:the hunters wanted to see the pictures
B:the painters were animal lovers
C:the painters wanted to show imagination
D:the pictures were thought to be helpful

答案:D
解析:
本题是细节考查题。原文是“无人知晓为何会画在那里,或许画画的人认为这些图能帮他们捉住这些动物,或者人类总是通过图画来叙述故事”。选项A“猎人想看到这些图画”;选项B“画图的人喜爱动物”;选项C“画图的人想展现自己的想象力”;选项D“图画被认为是有用的”。根据文章第一段可知,答案为D。
本题是细节考查题。原文是“他们画出简单的图或符号来代表事物和思想,以及他们所用语言的发音。这些人用的符号就成为了字母表”。选项A“物品”;选项B “字母表,';选项C“思想”;选项D“所用语言的发音”。由此可知答案为B。
本题是细节考查题。题目问:希腊字母表比埃及的简单,以下哪个不是其原因?选项A“希腊字母更易写”;选项B“希腊字母数量更少”;选项C“希腊字母更好发音”, 这一点文章未提及;选项D“每个符号仅代表一个发音”。由此可知答案为C。
本题是细节考查题。选项A“埃及人用的符号后来变成一种字母表”,选项B“埃及人喜欢画漫画故事”;选项C"罗马字母表由埃及的演变而来”;选项D“希腊人模仿埃及人的书写系统”。综观全文可知,答案为A。
本题是综合阅读能力考查题。选项A“应该让人容易理解”;选项B“应该有趣”;选项C“在生活中很有用”;选项D“从生活中消失了”。由本文最后一段可知,答案为C。

第10题:

In some libraries young people can check out ten juvenile books at one time.

A:adventure
B:large-print
C:hardcover
D:children's

答案:D
解析:
本句意思:在一些图书馆年轻人可以一次同时查阅十本青少年书籍。adventure的意思 为“冒险的,惊险的”;large-print的意思为“用大号铅字排印的”;hardcover的意思为“精装的, 硬书皮的”;children' s的意思为“孩子们的”。juvenile的意思为“青少年的”,和children' s的 意思接近。
