1、The IcemanOn a September day in 1991, two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria ａｎｄ　Italy. High up on a mountain pass, they found the body of a man lying on the ice. At that height (10,499 feet, ｏｒ3 ,200 meters) , the ice is usually permanent, but 1991 had been an especially warm year. The mountain ice had melted more than usual ａｎｄ　so the body had come to the surface.It was lying face downward. The skeleton (骨架) was in perfect condition, except fｏｒa wound in the head, There was still skin on the bones ａｎｄ　the remains of some clothes. The hands were still holding the wooden handle of an ax ａｎｄ　on the feet there were very simple leather ａｎｄ　cloth hoots. Nearby was a pair of gloves made of tree bark (树皮) ａｎｄ　a holder fｏｒarrows.Who was this man? How ａｎｄ　when had he died? Everybody had a different answer to these questions. Some people thought that it was from this century, perhaps the body of a soldier who died in World War I, since several soldiers had already been found in the area. A Swiss woman believed it might be her father, who had died in those mountains twenty years before ａｎｄ　whose body had never been found. The scientists who rushed to look at the body thought it was probably much older, maybe even a thousａｎｄ　years old.With modern dating techniques, the scientists soon learned that the Iceman was about 5,300 years old. Born in about 3300 B. C. , he lived during the Bronze Age in Europe. At first scientists thought he was probably a hunter who had died from an accident in the high mountains. More recent evidence, however, tells a different story, A new kind of X - ray shows an arrowhead still stuck in his shoulder. It left only a tiny hole in his skin, but it caused internal damage ａｎｄ　bleeding. He almost certainly died from this wound, ａｎｄ　not from the wound on the back of his head. This means that he was probably in some kind of a battle. It may have been part of a larger war, ｏｒhe may have been fighting bandits. He may even have been a bandit himself.By studying his clothes ａｎｄ　tools, scientists have already learned a great deal from the Iceman about the times he lived in. We may never know the full story of how he died, but he has given us important clues to the history of those distant times.The word "bandits" in paragraph 4 could be best replaced by ______. 【单选题】

A.soldiers

B.hunters

C.shooters

D.robbers

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题是词义题，比较容易。文章第四段谈到冰人当时与强盗交战，可以推测他本人有可能是强盗，另外也可以迅速查词典确定含义，答案是D。

2、Smart Window Windows not only let light in to cut down an electricity use fｏｒlighting, but the light coming through the window also provides heat. However, windows are not something people typically associate with being a cutting edge technology. Researchers are now working on new technologies that enable a window to quickly change from clear to dark ａｎｄ　anywhere in between with a flip of a switch. "It took us a long time to figure out what a window really is," says Claes Granqvist. He\'s a professｏｒof solid-state physics at Uppsala University in Sweden. "It\'s contact with the outside world. You have to have visual contact with the surrounding world to feel well. " So, windows ａｎｄ　natural light are important fｏｒimproving the way people feel when they\'re stuck indoors. Yet, windows are the weak link in a building when it comes to energy ａｎｄ　temperature control. In the winter, cold air leaks in. When it\'s hot ａｎｄ　sunny, sunlight streams in. All of this sunlight carries lots of heat ａｎｄ　energy. ａｎｄ　all of this extra heat forces people to turn on their air conditioners. Producing blasts of cold air, which can feel so refreshing, actually suck up enormous amounts of electricity in buildings around the world. Windows have been a majｏｒfocus of energy research fｏｒa long time. Over the years, scientists have come up with a variety of strategies fｏｒcoating, glazing, ａｎｄ　layering windows to make them more energy efficient. Smart windows go a step further. They use chromogenic technologies which involve changes of color. Electrochromic windows use electricity to change color. Fｏｒexample, a sheet of glass coated with thin layers of chemical compound such as tungsten oxide works a bit like a battery. Tungsten oxide is clear when an electric charge is applied ａｎｄ　dark when the charge is removed, that is, when the amount of voltage is decreased, the window darkens until it\'s completely dark after all electricity is taken away. So applying a voltage determines whether the window looks clear ｏｒdark. One important feature that makes a smart window so smart is that it has a sort of "memory. " All it takes is a small jolt of voltage to turn the window from one state to the other. Then, it stays that way. Transitions take anywhere from 10 seconds to a few minutes, depending on the size of the window. The development of smart windows could mean that massive air conditioning systems may no longer need. "In the future," Granqvist says, "our buildings may look different. What will be the benefit if the research on smart windows turns out to be successful, according to the last paragraph? 【单选题】

A.The buildings will look different.

B.Windows can be as large as you want.

C.We may not need air conditioners any more.

D.They are less expensive than traditional windows.

正确答案:C

答案解析:被选项中出现了大量的修饰词，段落最后一段的倒数第2句是直接答案相关句，根据该句内容判断C是答案。

3、The motorcarSome pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned ａｎｄ　allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.The motorcar will undoubtedly. change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, ａｎｄ　more economical, ａｎｄ　should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types.Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion. One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system.When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable (可伸缩的) arm will ｄｒｅｐfrom the auto ａｎｄ　make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, ａｎｄ　control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitｏｒall of the car\'s movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, ａｎｄ　reserve space fｏｒthe car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax ａｎｄ　wait fｏｒthe buzzer (蜂鸣器) that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.What is the author\'s attitude toward the future of autos?【单选题】

A.Enthusiastic

B.Pessimistic

C.Optimistic

D.Cautious

正确答案:C

答案解析:从作者对计算机监控系统的使用来看，作者对自行车的前景是持乐观态度的，所以答案为C。

4、A Tale of Scottish Rural LifeLewis Grassic Gibbon\'s SunｓｅｔSong (1932) was voted "the best Scottish novel of all time" by Scottish\'s reading public in 2005. Once considered shocking fｏｒits frank description of aspects of the lives of Scotland\'s poｏｒrural farmers, it has been adapted fｏｒstage, film, TV ａｎｄ　radio in recent decades.The novel is ｓｅｔon the fictional estate of Kinraddie, in the farming country of the Scottish northwest in the years up to ａｎｄ　beyond World War I. At its heart is the story of Chris, who is both part of the community ａｎｄ　a little outside it.Grassic Gibbon gives us the most detailed ａｎｄ　intimate account of the life of his heroine. We watch her grow through a childhood dominated by her cruel but hard-working father; experience tragedy (her mother\'s suicide ａｎｄ　murder of her twin children); ａｎｄ　learn about her feelings as she grows into woman. We see her marry, lose her husband, then marry again. Chris has seemed so convincing a figure to some female readers that they cannot believe that she is the creation of a man.But it would be misleading to suggest that this book is just about Chris. It is truly a novel of a place ａｎｄ　its people. Its opening section tells of Kinraddie\'s long history, in a language that imitates the place\'s changing patterns of speech ａｎｄ　writing.The story itself is amazingly full of characters ａｎｄ　incidents. It is told from Chris\' point of view but also from that of the gossiping community, a community where everybody knows everybody else\'s business ａｎｄ　nothing is ever forgotten.SunｓｅｔSong has a social theme too. It is concerned with what Grassic Gibbon perceives as the destruction of traditional Scottish rural life first by modernization ａｎｄ　then by World War I. Gibbon tried hard to show how certain characters resist the war. Despite this, the war takes the young men away, a number of them to their deaths. In particular, it takes away Chris\' husband, Ewan Tavendale. The war finally kills Ewan, but not in the way his widow is told In fact, the Germans aren\'t responsible fｏｒhis death, but his own side. He is shot because he is said to have run away from a battle.If the novel is about the end of one way of life it also looks ahead, it is a "SunｓｅｔSong" but is concerned too with the new Kinraddie, indeed of the new European world Grassic Gibbon went on to publish two other novels about the place that continue its story.What is the opening section of the novel mainly concerned with?【单选题】

A.The climate of Kinraddie.

B.The history of Kinraddie.

C.The geography of Kinraddie.

D.The language spoken in Kinraddie.

正确答案:B

答案解析:A: Kinraddie的气候；B: Kinraddie的历史；C: Kinraddie的地理；D: Kinraddie说的语言。看看下面这句话：Its opening section tells of Kinraddie\'s long history，in a language that imitates the place\'s changing patterns of speech ａｎｄ　writing. 小说的开头部分讲述了Kinraddie的悠久历史，讲述时模仿了该地方变化着的口语和书面语的表达方式。可以看出B是对的。

5、Online Cancer Chat with a Safety NetCancer Research UK has launched an online chat forum fｏｒcancer patients to swap (变换) stories ａｎｄ　share experiences on how to cope with such a devastating disease.But Cancer Chat is a forum with a difference: it has an information safety net.This means that a Cancer Research UK team will keep a watching brief to ensure that patients are not subjected to rogue (劣等的) "cancer cures" ｏｒscientifically unsound information.Anyone can have access to the messages posted on Cancer Chat, but if people wish to post a message, they will need to register.ａｎｄ　Rebekah Gibbs, cancer patient ａｎｄ　star of TWs Casualty, has pledged her support fｏｒthe new project. "I think Cancer Chat is a brilliant idea," she said. "I have written a public diary about what I went through with breast cancer ａｎｄ　I have had such a heart - warming response from other people going through the same thing."The idea of a Cancer Chat forum means you can share information about treatment ａｎｄ　side effects ａｎｄ　you can really open up about your feelings online in a way that can be difficult when talking to close friends ａｎｄ　family. ａｎｄ　with Cancer Research UK monitoring the forum, people can be reassured about the quality of information being exchanged.Cancer Chat will also encourage its users to check out any cancer questions on its CancerHelp UK website, which is specially designed to give patients ａｎｄ　their families 6,000 pages of up - to - date information that is easy to understａｎｄ　ａｎｄ　explains a wide range of treatments fｏｒdifferent types of cancer ａｎｄ　gives details of clinical trials. There is also a UK ｄａｔａｂａｓｅ of cancer clinical trials.The award - winning website attracts around one million visitors a month ａｎｄ　Cancer Research UK hopes that some of these visitors will also want to post comments on the Cancer Chat forum.Fｏｒthose who do not have access to computers ａｎｄ　have questions about cancer, the charity\'s team of cancer information nurses are available during office hours to talk over patients\' concerns on the phone.The word "charity" in the last line but one refers to ______. 【单选题】

A.Cancer Chat

B.CancerHelp UK

C.TWs Casualty

D.Cancer Research UK
