Some say he was the greatest experimental scientist of the 17th century. In the course of his work, he cooperated with famous men of science like Isaac Newton, and the great architect Christopher Wren. Hooke's early education began at home, under the guidance of his father. He entered Westminster School at the age of 13, and from there went to Oxford, where he came in contact with some of the best scientists in England. Hooke impressed them with his skills at designing experiments and inventing instruments. In 1662, at the age of 28, he was named Curator of Experiments at the newly formed Royal Society of London — meaning that he was responsible for demonstrating (展示) new experiments at the society’s weekly meeting. Hooke accepted the job, even though he knew that the society had no money to pay him! Watching living things through a microscope was one of his favourite pastimes. He invented a compound microscope for this purpose. One day while observing a cork (软木塞) under a microscope, he saw honeycomb-like structures. There were cells — the smallest units of life. In fact, it was Hooke who invented the term “cell” as the box-like cells of the cork reminded him of the cells of a monastery (修道院). Another achievement of Hooke’s was his book Micrographia, which introduced the enormous potential of the microscope. It contains fascinating drawings of the thing he saw under the microscope. The book also includes, among other things, ideas on gravity, light and combustion (燃烧) that may have helped scientists like Newton when they were developing their own theories on these phenomena. Hooke made a valuable contribution to astronomy too. A crater (火山口) on the moon is named after him in honour of his services to this branch of science. 4. Which is the possible reason why Hooke accepted the job as Curator of Experiments? A. He liked designing experiments. B. His family needed his support. C. He wanted to please the famous scientists in England. D. His parents couldn’t afford his education. 5. What does the underlined word “pastimes” in paragraph three mean? A. Jobs B. Experiments C. Hobbies D. Structures 6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A. Hooke went to Oxford in 1645. B. Hooke was well paid in the Royal Society of London. C. Hooke made a contribution to medicine. D. Hooke's book Micrographia may have helped Newton. 7. The last paragraph is to prove that ________. A. Hooke was the greatest experimental scientist of the 17th century B. Hooke was good at making discoveries C. Hooke's contributions were not limited to one field D. Hooke was one of the greatest astronomers 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。本文讲述了英国伟大的科学家生物学家,细胞的发现者Robert Hooke 的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的Hooke impressed them with his skills at designing experiments and inventing instruments. In 1662, at the age of 28, he was named Curator of Experiments at the newly formed Royal Society of London — meaning that he was responsible for demonstrating (展示) new experiments at the society’s weekly meeting. Hooke accepted the job, even though he knew that the society had no money to pay him!“胡克在设计实验和发明仪器方面的技能给他们留下了深刻的印象。1662年,28岁的他被任命为新成立的伦敦皇家学会的实验馆长,这意味着他负责在学会的周会上展示新的实验。胡克接受了这份工作,尽管他知道协会没有钱付给他!”可知,胡克接受实验馆长一职的原因是他喜欢设计实验。故选A。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的meaning that he was responsible for demonstrating (展示) new experiments at the society’s weekly meeting. Hooke accepted the job, even though he knew that the society had no money to pay him!“意思是他负责在协会的周会上演示新的实验。胡克接受了这份工作,尽管他知道协会没有钱付给他!”和第三段第二句He invented a compound microscope for this purpose.“他为此发明了一种复合显微镜。”由此推知,第三段第一句Watching living things through a microscope was one of his favourite pastimes.的意思是“用显微镜观察生物是他最喜欢的爱好之一。所以“pastime”的意思是“爱好。”故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中The book also includes, among other things, ideas on gravity, light and combustion (燃烧) that may have helped scientists like Newton when they were developing their own theories on these phenomena.“书中还包括了一些关于重力、光和燃烧的观点,这些观点可能对牛顿等科学家在研究这些现象时有所帮助。”由此可知,胡克的《微生物学》这本书可能对牛顿有帮助。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段Hooke made a valuable contribution to astronomy too. A crater (火山口) on the moon is named after him in honour of his services to this branch of science.“胡克对天文学也作出了宝贵的贡献。月球上的一个环形山是以他的名字命名的,以纪念他对这门科学的贡献。”由此可知,胡克的贡献并不局限于一个领域。故选C。 【点睛】做词义猜测题时,利用上下文提供的情景和线索,进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测词义,最常见的就是利用上下文语境、常识和语法关系推断词义。尤其是抓住所需推断词汇前后的含义。本题第2小题,根据第二段中的meaning that he was responsible for demonstrating (展示) new experiments at the society’s weekly meeting. Hooke accepted the job, even though he knew that the society had no money to pay him!“意思是他负责在协会的周会上演示新的实验。胡克接受了这份工作,尽管他知道协会没有钱付给他!”和第三段第二句He invented a compound microscope for this purpose.“他为此发明了一种复合显微镜。”由此推知,第三段第一句Watching living things through a microscope was one of his favourite pastimes.的意思是“用显微镜观察生物是他最喜欢的爱好之一”所以“pastime”的意思是“爱好。”故选C。 C Chinese painting, also known as the traditional national painting, one of the traditional paintings with a long history, has its unique and independent system. Using brushes, ink, and Chinese pigments (天然颜料), a painting is drawn on a special kind of paper (Xuan paper) or silk. The traditional subjects are figures, landscapes, flowers and birds. In comparison with Western painting, Chinese painting has its own artistic characteristics. After a careful study of the object, a painter can discover the rules of its structure, and then produce it by the mind’s eye. It is not merely a simple copy, but it combines the object with the artistic concept of the producer, turning a natural image into an “artistic image”. The object can show the artist’s feelings and personality to achieve the effect of “being alike not only in spirit, but also in appearance”. Not all the objects are to be drawn on the paper, and much space is left for the imagination. The use of lines is important in Chinese painting. Clear, swift, sharp and changeable lines are combined with the push, point and press of the brush and ink to show the quality of the object and variations of tone (色调). Ancient Chinese artists listed 18 different ways of drawing lines with the brush in figure painting. Different ways of creating lines are used when painting a landscape, flowers and birds, clouds, and bamboos. Traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy are different branches of art stemming (起源) from the same origin. They use the same kind of tools and all the lines used in painting are variations of the points and lines of calligraphy. Though they are different artistic forms, they are closely linked in terms of their expression of thoughts and feelings. They influence each other to create another artistic feature. 8. Which of the following words can describe the common subjects of traditional Chinese painting? A. Valuable. B. Independent. C. Special. D. Natural. 9. The writer believes that a traditional Chinese painter’s picture ________. A. reflects social problems of his times B. describes mainly a natural image C. expresses his thoughts D. tells a true story 10. It can be inferred that a traditional Chinese painter spent much time ________. A. traveling B. learning to draw lines C. reading D. studying calligraphy before drawing 11. What do painting and calligraphy have in common? A. Using the similar techniques. B. Starting from the same period. C. Belonging to the same artistic form D. Covering the same themes. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍中国画。中国画又称传统国画,是历史悠久的传统绘画之一,有其独特而独立的体系。中国传统绘画和书法是不同的艺术分支,它们有着相同的起源。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段Chinese painting, also known as the traditional national painting, one of the traditional paintings with a long history, has its unique and independent system. Using brushes, ink, and Chinese pigments (天然颜料), a painting is drawn on a special kind of paper (Xuan paper) or silk. The traditional subjects are figures, landscapes, flowers and birds.中国画又称传统国画,是历史悠久的传统绘画之一,有其独特而独立的体系。用毛笔、墨水和中国颜料,画在一种特殊的纸(宣纸)或丝绸上。传统的题材是人物、风景、花鸟。由此可知,“自然的”可以描述中国画的共同主题。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中The object can show the artist’s feelings and personality to achieve the effect of “being alike not only in spirit, but also in appearance”.作品能表现艺术家的情感和个性,达到“精神上、外表上都一样”的效果。”由此可知,作者认为,一个中国传统画家的画表达了他的思想。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中Ancient Chinese artists listed 18 different ways of drawing lines with the brush in figure painting. Different ways of creating lines are used when painting a landscape, flowers and birds, clouds, and bamboos.在人物画中,中国古代艺术家列举了18种不同的用笔画线的方法。在画风景、花鸟、云彩和竹子时,会使用不同的方法来创造线条。由此推知,一位传统的中国画家花了很多时间学习画线。故选B。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中Traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy are different branches of art stemming (起源) from the same origin. They use the same kind of tools and all the lines used in painting are variations of the points and lines of calligraphy.中国传统绘画和书法是不同的艺术分支,它们有着相同的起源。他们使用同样的工具,绘画中使用的所有线条都是书法的点和线的变化。由此可知,书画使用类似的技术。故选A。 D More and more cities across the world are experimenting with driverless vehicles on public streets. Two of the latest to conduct testing are Paris, France and Las Vegas, Nevada. The cities have used self-driving electric buses to carry passengers on short rides to try out the technology and see how humans react to it. In Paris, two buses have been transporting passengers across a bridge between two of the city’s busiest rail stations. The vehicles, built by French company EasyMile, travel in a special safety lane created for the project. The fully electric buses can carry up to 10 people. The testing in Paris is expected to last three months. If things go well, officials plan to launch more driverless bus lines later this year. Jean-louis Missika, deputy mayor of Paris, told reporters at a recent launch event that driveless vehicles represent a “revolution” happening in many cities around the world. He said self-driving technology is set to “change our city environment and public space in an astonishing fashion over the next 20 years”. Transportation officials say they are planning to use the bus to connect neighborhoods to rail stations around Paris They will also help ease traffic crowding and reduce severe pollution in the city. In Las Vegas, the city recently launched the first driverless shuttle bus in the United States. The 12-passenger bus from French company Navya has no steering wheel or brake pedals. It uses cameras and sensors to avoid other vehicles and people while making its way down city streets. The electric vehicles can reach a top speed of 40 kilometers per hour. The bus operated for a two-week period along one of the busiest entertainment areas in Las Vegas. Rides during the shuttle experiment were free. “The ride was smooth. It's clean and quiet and the seats are comfortable,” said Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman after taking a ride. 12. What is the text mainly about? A. More cities are using driveless vehicles B. Driveless electric buses are tested in some cities. C. Some cities are trying out a new technology. D. The driveless buses will reduce severe pollution. 13. What can we learn from the second paragraph? A. The bridge connects the Paris’ busiest bus stations. B. A special safety lane was built to test the self-driving buses. C. The fully electric buses can hold over 10 people. D. More driverless bus lines have been set up. 14. What does the driverless shuttle bus use to avoid other vehicles and people? A. Steering wheel. B. Brake pedals. C. Alarm. D. Cameras and sensors. 15. In which column of a newspaper can we read this passage? A. Technology. B. Entertainment. C. Culture. D. Education. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。本文介绍的是在一些城市,无人驾驶的电动公交车正在接受测试。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句More and more cities across the world are experimenting with driverless vehicles on public streets.“世界上越来越多的城市正在公共街道上试验无人驾驶汽车。”由此可知,本文介绍的是在一些城市,无人驾驶的电动公交车正在接受测试。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中In Paris, two buses have been transporting passengers across a bridge between two of the city’s busiest rail stations.
