I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people kept asking me stories about what it’s like to work in a field under the control of men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the existence of the universe, the shape of space time and the nature of black holes. At 19, when I began studying astrophysics(天体物理学), it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D. at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the problem started to bother me. My every achievement—jobs, research papers, awards—was viewed from the angle of gender (性别) politics. So were my failures.
Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would finally become my reply to any and all provocations(挑衅): I don’t talk about that any more. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender problems. Why should removing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory.
Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how many of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don’t take no notice of those concerns. Still, I don’t tell them “war” stories. Instead, I have given them this: the scene of their physics professor heavily pregnant (怀孕)doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that’s a sight worth talking about.
5.Why doesn’t the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again?
A. She feels unhappy working in the scientific field.
B. She finds space research more important.
C. She is not good at telling stories of the kind.
D. She is tired of the sexism in scientific field.
6.From Paragraph 2, we can infer that people would think the author’s failures were due to __.
A. her over-confidence as a female astrophysicist
B. her involvement in gender politics
C. the very fact that she is a woman
D. the burden she bears in a male-leading society
7.Why does the author feel great satisfaction when talking about her class?
A. Female students no longer have to bother about gender issues.
B. Her students’ performance has brought back her confidence.
C. More female students are going in for science than before.
D. Her female students can do just as well as male students.
8.What does the image(形象) that the author presents to her students suggest?
A. Women can balance a career in science and having a family.
B. Women have more barriers on their way to academic success.
C. Women students needn’t have the concerns of her generation.
D. Women now have fewer problems going in for a science career.
Bars are very important in providing a place where people can meet and make friends. People who enjoy a drink in a local bar are happier and have more friends. They are more likely to be engaged in conversations in small community pubs, and social skills improve after a drink.
Professor Robin Dunbar of Oxford University said, “Friendship and communities are probably the two most important factors influencing our health and well-being. Making and maintaining friendships is something that has to be done in the real world. The digital world is simply no substitute(n.替代物). Given the increasing tendency for our social life to be on the Internet rather than in real life, having relaxed, accessible places where people can meet old friends and make new ones becomes even more necessary.”
Tim Page, chief executive of CAMRA, said, “Bars offer a social environment to enjoy a drink with friends in a responsible community setting. The role of community bars in ensuring well-being cannot be overstated. For that reason, we all need to do what we can to ensure that everyone has a ‘local’ near to where they live or work.”Bars have long been part of British society and have played a key role in British social life since the 16th century. Bars came to represent the heart and soul of a community, providing both a place of entertainment and an engine for community bonding. In a world before the arrival of the motor car, the bar provided a venue in which people could get friendships and a sense of community.
But the closing decades of the 20th century witnessed major changes in both the style of bars (for example, themed bars) and their numbers. As of 2015, the number of bars declines sharply, with bars continuing to close at an average rate of 29 a week. 9.What does a regular(n.常客) at a local bar having more friends prove?
A. The benefits brought by pub cultures
B. The popularity of local bars in Britain.
C. The relation between friendships and bars
D. The importance of face-to-face communication.
10.What does Robin think is the tendency for social life?
A. More people will go to bars.
B. People will maintain friendships
C. People will trust the digital world
D. People will communicate more online.
11.Why does Tim Page value the role of local bars?
A. They contribute to people’s social happiness.
B. They are a place common people can afford.
C. They are a good place to spread cultural values.
D. They are accessible to people in the community.
12.What can we infer about bars nowadays?
A. Themed bars have held the market
B. Some bars have a hard time surviving.
C. They become the heart of a community
D. Measures should be taken to save them.
Climate change will increase US wildfires,and the smoky air will cause terrible problems in areas far beyond those burned,reports an environmental group Thursday. Two-thirds of Americans,or nearly 212 million,lived in states suffering from wildfire smoke three years ago,according to the report by the Natural Resources Defense Council(NRDC).These areas,which had smoke for at least a week,were nearly 50 times greater than those burned directly by fire.
“It affects a much wide area of the United States than people have realized.” says author Kim Knowlton,a Columbia University health professor,adding the smoke can move up to hundreds of miles.She says the smoke contains air pollution and can cause several kinds of diseases.
Texas was hit hardest in 2011,when smoke stayed for at least a week in areas that are home to 25 million people,according to NRDC’s report.Illinois,which recorded no wildfires within its borders,came second with
nearly 12 million people affected by smoke that moved in from elsewhere.The other eight states with the most people in touch with smoky air were,in descending order: Florida,Missouri,Georgia,Louisiana,Michigan,Alabama,Oklahoma and Iowa.
Nearly two dozen states had no wildfires within their borders in 2011,but eight of them still had at least one week of smoky air: Illinois,Missouri,Iowa,Kansas,Nebraska,Indiana,Wisconsin and Ohio.
Only 18 states and the District of Columbia had no people in touch with at least a week of smoke that year,although five of them—Alaska,California,Hawaii,Nevada and Utah—had a large area burned by wildfires.
The problem will only get worse.Knowlton says.Scientific research shows climate is causing higher temperatures and health problems.
13.We can learn from the first two paragraphs that_______.
A. climate change killed many Americans
B. there are fewer states burned by wildfires
C. every state had wildfire smoke for at least a week
D. most Americans suffered from wildfire smoke 3 year ago
14.Which of the following states had wildfires within its borders in 2011?
A. Iowa.
B. Kansas.
C. Ohio.
D. California.
15.The underlined word “descending” in the fourth paragraph probably means _______.
A. going down
B. coming true
C. looking practical
D. turning back 16.What is the text mainly about?
A. Climate change causes more wildfires.
B. Wildfire smoke becomes a serious health problem.
C. More wildfires cause climate changes.
D. Air pollution becomes a terrible problem.

Do the Chinese people text in English words and Chinese characters? Of course most people in China text in our native language, which is the Chinese language. But I guess the reason that people ask this question is that they couldn’t imagine how people type thousand of Chinese characters with only 26 letters. As a matter of the fact, it’s only a small piece of cake. There are such many methods to type Chinese on computers and phones, of which the more popular is the pinyin system. Every child in China learn pinyin to pronounce Chinese words. It’s similar the International Phonetic Alphabet. With 26 letters, anyone can type Chinese. It is no problem trouble the Chinese people now.
四、七选五
Maybe you are an ordinary student.38. This is not necessarily so.Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.Here’s how:
Plan your time carefully.When planning your work,you should make a list of things that you have to do.After making this list,you should make a schedule of your time.First arrange your time for eating,sleeping,dressing,etc,then decide a good,regular time for studying.39. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems,but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.
Make good use of your time in class.40. Listening carefully in class means less work later.Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
Study regularly.When you get home from school,go over your notes,review the
important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day,read that material.41.If you do these things regularly,the material will become more meaningful,and you will remember it longer.
Develop a good attitude towards tests.The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test,so don’t be over-worried.
42. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
A.This will help you understand the next class.

【名师点睛】
阅读理解在每套英语试题中都占有很重要的分值,需要大家特别重视。
其中词义猜测题是比较难的题目,此类题目要求正确把握句意、上下文语境。
如第2小题“The underlined part "snowed under" in the second email means___”,要求猜测第二封电子邮件中划线词组“snowed under”是什么意思。
根据划线词组所在句“谢谢伙计,打算我此时……”及下文中的I have to write an essay by Monday afternoon, so I'll be working all weekend.(在周一下午之前,我必须写一篇文章,所以这个周末我会一直工作)可推知,Bobby 此时此刻非常地忙碌。
本题容易错选B项“非常烦恼的”。
做此类题目,一定要结合上下文语境,不能主观臆断。
此外,大家在日常学习过程中,一定要加强词汇积累,只有词汇基础雄厚了,阅读过程中的障碍才会少。

【名师点睛】
推理判断题属于主观题,是层次较高的题目。
它包括判断和推理题。
这两类题常常相互依存,推理是为了作出正确的判断,正确的判断又依赖于合乎逻辑的推理。
此类题要求在理解表面文字的基础上,作出判断和推论,从而得到文章的隐含的意思和深层的意思,也就是通过文
章中的文字信息,上下逻辑关系及事物的发展变化等已知的信息,推断出作者没有直接表达的态度和观点。
第1小题推断判断题。
根据第一段I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting.可以推断出作者不愿意反复谈论这个话题,是因为不感兴趣,对此感到厌倦了。
这也是作者没有直接表达出来的,要我们进行推断判断。
故选D.
推理判断题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思还要推理它们之间的关系,结合自己的生活常识和经验,再通过逻辑推理和判断,理解文章的言外之意,从而揭示文章的深层涵义。
第4题推断判断题。
Instead, I have given them this: the scene of their physics professor heavily pregnant (怀孕)doing physics experiments.(相反,我会告诉他们这样的场景:她们的物理教授身怀六甲还在做物理实验。
)可以推断出,作者想要告诉她的学生,女性有能力平衡科学事业和家庭,这也是文章的主题。
故选A.
任何一篇文章都有其特定的写作目的,读者应当知道如何去做或按照某种方式传递思考问题。
推理判断题的答案不可能在文章中直接找到,因此推理时我们务必要忠于原文,在文章中寻找并确定可推论的依据,即:已知部分——推论的前提,从中推测出未知部分——推理的结论,切忌妄加评论,把自己的观点当成作者的观点。

38.根据空前句子Maybe you are an ordinary student(也许,你是一名普通的学生)和空后句子This is not necessarily so.Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.(这并非一定如此。
任何人都能成为一名更优秀的学生,如果他/她想要的话)可知,此处“你也许认为你永远成不了尖子生”符合语境。
故选B。
39.本段主要讲述时间安排,根据空前句子First arrange your time for eating,sleeping,dressing,etc,then decide a good,regular time for studying.(首先安排吃饭、睡觉、穿衣等事情的时间,然后确定一个好而规律的学习时间)可知,除了这些,我们还要安排娱乐的时间,这也是常识性问题,人们可能一直工作或学习。
故选C。
40.根据空前句子Make good use of your time in class.(利用好课堂时间)和空后句子Listening carefully in class means less work later.(课上认真听课意味着今后节省劳动量)可知,此处“利用课堂时间,认真听老师所讲的一切”符合语境。

故选A。

【名师点睛】
七选五题型主要考查上下文的理解与推断,虽然文章整体难度一般低于阅读理解,但是却给很多同学造成了很大的心理障碍。
七个选项中选五个,比四个选项中选一个,感觉干扰性更大,很大同学在做这个题目时,总有一种眼花缭乱、心烦气躁的感觉,致使往往正确率不高。
在这里提醒同学们,首先要克服心理障碍,同时要注意方式方法。
首先,要使用铅笔在试题上标识,确定出来的选项就用铅笔划掉,一旦发现选择有误,可以方便修改,减少干扰;第二,一定要注意文章开头的段落,文章第一段一般是主题段,会点明一篇文章要讲述的内容,做到心中有数;第三,注意设空前后的句子,因为这些句子之间是顺承和联系的,所有一定要联系和理解上下文的语境,找准原文中的关键词(组)和选项中的匹配信息。
如第3小题,空前句子Make good use of(关键词组) your time in class(关键词组).和空后句子Listening carefully in class(关键词组) means less work later.;F选项Take advantage of (与原文Make goo use of匹配)class time(与原文time in class匹配) to listen to everything(与原文Listening carefully in class匹配) the teacher says.由此可确定此处应使用F选项。
43.One possible version:
Nowadays, it is becoming common to lead a low-carbon lifestyle. We know that carbon dioxide is the major greenhouse gas that causes global warming. By living a low-carbon life, we can cut carbon dioxide emissions, which may contribute to stopping the temperature from rising.
There are many ways of leading an environmentally friendly life. For instance, we can turn off electrical appliances like lights, the television and the computer when we aren’t using them. Cars not only cause serious air pollution but also waste energy, so we could walk or ride a bicycle for short trips. If we need to travel a long distance we can take public transportation. It is also wise to use reusable cloth bags and not disposable plastic bags when we are shopping.
I believe that as long as each of us makes a small change to cut carbon emissions, we can make a big difference and develop a harmonious relationship with the environment.
【解析】本文是有关环保类的热点话题,是“低碳生活,从我做起”的征文投稿,通过审题可知用一般现在时,用第一人称we,文章分三部分写,第一部分写低碳生活的重要性,好处:减少二氧化碳的排放,有利于缓解全球变暖;第二段写从我做起,我们可以做哪些事减少碳排放,可参考以下要点:随手关掉不用的电器,如电灯、电视和电脑;步行或骑自行车出行;如果路程远,乘坐公交车购物时尽量使用环保布袋,不用一次性塑料袋。
第三段发出号召呼吁每个人贡献自己的一份力量,大家都行动起来,我们就能与环境和谐共处。
文章要求观点明确,要点全面,前后连贯。
还要注意句式的变换和使用一些高级词汇和句型为文章增加亮点。
比如宾语从句that carbon dioxide is the major greenhouse gas that causes global warming.定语从句which may contribute to stopping the temperature from rising. It is also wise to do句型。
高级词汇contribute to, as long as, make a difference等的使用和For instance, not only…but also等连接词的运用。
