A
Students today have an important and wonderful advantage:social media.However, we should know that not all social media platforms are created equal.
Twitter
Advantage:Twitter is best for conducting quick surveys and advertising.Twitter is also great for keeping up with current events.By following active politicians, we are becoming more familiar with their policies and their faces.Twitter is also better for online debates because of the character limit.
Disadvantage:Twitter’s disadvantage is that you can see so many things you’re not interested in because the people you follow retweet these posts.
Facebook
Advantage:Its best uses are keeping up with family and high school friends.Also Facebook makes it extremely easy to inform students about concerts and fairs.It’s the only big social media platform—where you can create specific albums for different things.
Disadvantage:Facebook’s biggest downfall is that if you comment on anything, you get notifications for every other comment.Additionally,debates about everything under the sun.
Snapchat
Advantage:The best social media platform for socializing is actually Snapchat. Snapchat works quickly and gives you the freedom to be spontaneous(常心血来潮的) with your posts.It gives you the most insight into the people you follow or are friends with.In high school,my friends would always tell me,You’d probably know more about our lives if you were on Snapchat.
Disadvantage:On Snapchat,stories disappear alter24hours and you can miss some great moment if you don’t check it regularly.
Instagram
Advantage:It’s like an online diary of our best moments.For many of us,posting on Instagram is like the college version of show-and-tell.
Disadvantage:It has too many advertisements.Many times when you just want to see what your friends have recently posted,the app throws in an advertisement that looks like any other post.
1.Why is Twitter considered annoying?
A.It always has various repetitive contents.
B.It almost focuses too much on politicians.
C.It seldom keeps up with current events.
D.It often asks users to do quick surveys.
2.What is Facebook suitable for?
A.Making contents.
B.Doing quick surveys.
C.Running advertisements.
D.Producing different albums.
3.In which platform will you probably miss some posts after a day?
A.Twitter.
B.Facebook.
C.Snapchat.
D.Instagram.

I’m Amanda Gorman,I’ve been crazy about writing poetry since third grade.After polishing my skills for about a decade and having judges review my poetry and videos of my performances,I was named the country’s Youth Poet Laureate in2017,I’ve read my work at the Library of Congress.It’s been an excellent journey especially since I used to have trouble saying half the alphabet.
My twin sister Sarah and I were born very prematurely,which led to lots of ear infections.I didn’t have as much luck as Sarah and the ear infections left me with a severe hearing problem,making it difficult to understand speech,which caused me to develop a speech impediment.My sister would have to translate when I spoke because
people had no idea what I was saying.Writing wasn’t just fun:it was a way to have my voice heard and to stop me from feeling pity for my disability.And I was determined to read my poetry in front of audiences.
Our single mom couldn’t always afford medical help.Sometimes she had to choose: Shall I put food on the table or make sure Amanda can say this word?When we couldn’t pay,I’d spend about an hour a day recording my talking and correcting the mistakes gain and again.But poetry was a constant.I didn’t need expensive materials to train myself to be better at that.
At age20,I still suffer from self-doubt,but i have got a necklace which my grandmother gave me.When I’m nervous before performing,I hold it and say,“I am the daughter of black writers who fought for their freedom,broke their chains and changed the world”And100percent of the time after saying that,I’m ready to go.
4.Why was the visit to the Library of Congress special for Amanda?

B.Sarah finds writing much more fun.
C.Sarah likes public speaking a lot more.
D.Sarah didn’t have ear infections as a baby.
6.What did Amanda think of her mom?
A.Her mom didn’t like setting the table.
B.Her mom struggled to support the family.
C.Her mom showed little concern for her.

由最后一段中的“I am the daughter of black writers who fought for their freedom,broke their chains and changed the world(我是黑人作家的女儿,他们为自由而战,挣脱枷锁,改变世界)”可知,Amanda是黑人作家,她以先辈的故事激励自己。
故选A项。
【点睛】阅读理解之细节推理
细节推断题:要求考生根据语篇关系,推断具体细节,如时间、地点、人物关系、人物身份、事件等。
一般可根据短文提供的信息,或者借助生活常识进行推理判断。
比如文章最后一题:
4.What can be inferred about Amanda from the last paragraph?
A.She’s a black writer.
B.She’s always confident.
C.She has many necklaces.
D.She aims to change the world.
根据最后一段:At age20,I still suffer from self-doubt,but i have got a necklace which my grandmother gave me.When I’m nervous before performing,I hold it and say,“I am the daughter of black writers who fought for their freedom,broke their chains and changed the world”And100percent of the time after saying that,I’m ready to go.(在20岁的时候,我仍然饱受自我怀疑的折磨,但是我有一条我奶奶送给我的项链。
当我在演出前感到紧张时,我会拿着它说:“我是黑人作家的女儿,他们为自由而战,挣脱枷锁,改变世界。
”说完这句话后,我百分之百地准备出发。
)可知,选项B:She’s always confident与原文“At age20,I still suffer from self-doubt”相矛盾,B项错误。
选项C:She has many necklaces.未忠于原文“I have got a necklace which my grandmother gave me.”,属于主观臆想,凭空想象,随意揣测,C项错误。
D项She aims to change the world.与原文“…black writers who fought for their freedom,broke their chains and changed the world”张冠李戴,D项错误。
A项She’s a black writer是在原文“I am the daughter of black writers”基础上的合理推断。
A项正确。
C
Andrew Grey doesn’t fit most people’s idea of an astronomer.He works in a car repair shop,not in a lab or university,yet the Australian repairman discovered a star system hiding in data from NASA’s Kepler space telescope.
Mr.Grey is one of millions of citizen scientists helping researchers to expand collective understanding.For centuries,only a few ordinary people had been contributing to science,but advances in technology have brought a higher level of democratization(民主化)to science.
“This is a collaborative(合作的)effort that anyone could get involved in,”says Chris Lincoln,an Oxford University astrophysicist(天体物理学家)and cofounder of Zooniverse,a platform that hosts dozens of citizen science projects.Citizen scientists can contribute to breakthroughs in almost any field,from ecology to astrophysics.
“As long as pattern recognition is involved,there are no limits to what can become a citizen science project,”Dr.Linton says.“Anyone can identify patterns in images,graphs,or even seemingly boring data after a short tutorial.Machine learning allows computers to do some pattern recognition.But humans,particularly
amateur scientists,don’t stay focused on what they’re supposed to.And that’s good,because people who do that notice the unusual things in s data set.
“And citizen science doesn’t have to be directed by a scientist,”says Sheila Jasanoff,director of the Program on Science,Technology and Society at Harvard University.“Citizens producing knowledge in places where official organs have failed then can also be citizen scientists,”she says.That’s what happened in Flint, Michigan,when a local mother started drinking water tests that caused a broader investigation of lead levels.
Citizen-powered research is as old as scientific inquiry.For centuries before science became professionalized,regular people looked for patterns in the world around them.Despite a lot of advanced equipment and computer models,scientists still welcome help from everyday people.
As a professional scientist himself,Lintott says,“People think that were intelligent,but science is easy and we need your help.”
8.What made citizen scientists appear?
A.The high level of science projects
B.The development of technology.
C.The support of the government.
D.The foundation of Zooniverse.
9.What is a human advantage in pattern recognition compared with machines?
A.Humans can identify patterns mare swiftly.
B.Humans focus their attention on data.
C.Humans can observe uncommon things.
D.Humans have stronger emotions.
10.What is Lincon’s attitude towards citizen science?
A.Favorable.
B.Cautious.
C.Indifferent.
D.Doubtful.
11.What would be the best title of the text?
A.Citizen scientists can be intelligent.
B.Science is important to everyone.
C.Anyone can be a scientist.
D.Science is everywhere.
【答案】8.B9.C10.A11.C
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。
文章主要讲述了这样的观点:科学研究并不专属于科学家,平民科学家对科学研究也有很大的帮助。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。
由第二段中的For centuries,only a few ordinary people had been contributing to science,but advances in technology have brought a higher level of democratization to science.(几个世纪以来,只有少数普通人对科学作出了贡献,但技术的进步使科学的民主化程度提高了。
)可知,由于科技的发展使得科学趋于民主化,更多的平民才能接触到科学。
故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。
由第四段中的Machine learning allows computers to do some pattern recognition.But humans,particularly amateur scientists,don’t stay focused on what they’re supposed to.And that’s good,because people who do that notice the unusual things in a data set.(机器学习允许计算机进行一些模式识别。
但是人类,尤其是业余科学家,不会专注于他们应该做的事情。
这很好,因为这样做的人会注意到数据集中不寻常的东西。
)可推知,和机器相比,人更能注意到数据里一些特殊的东西。
故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。
由最后一段中的As a professional scientist himself,Lintott says,“People think that we’re intelligent,but science is easy and we need your help”(作为一名专业的科学家,Lintott说:“人们认为我们很聪明,但是科学很简单,我们需要你的帮助。
”)可推知,Lintott认为科学家需要这些平民科学家的帮助,因此Lintott对平民科学是非常赞同的。
故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。
文章第一段通过对Andrew Grey这位平民科学家的介绍来引出全文;第二段中的Mr.Grey is one of millions of citizen scientists helping researchers to expand collective understanding.说明这样的平民科学家目前有很多;第五段中的And citizen science doesn’t have to be directed by a scientist说明想成为平民科学家并不难。
再通过下文中regular people,help from everyday people,science is easy这些字眼可判断,文章主要讲述了普通人也可以研究科学,成为科学家,C项Anyone can be a scientist.很好地概括了全文的主旨大意。
故选C项。
【点睛】阅读理解技巧之态度推理好判断
态度只分为三大类:支持、赞同、乐观;客观、中立;反对、批评、怀疑、悲观。
识别态度有以下方法:找文中带有感情色彩的名次、动词、形容词、副词;根据作者举的例子判断等。
比如文章第3小题:
3.What is Lincon’s attitude towards citizen science?
A.Favorable.
B.Cautious.
C.Indifferent.
D.Doubtful.
在涉及本题的文段中:As a professional scientist himself,Lintott says,“People think that were intelligent,but science is easy and we need your help.”“we need your help(我们需要你们的帮助)”揭示了他的态度:接受支持平民科学家。
因此,不难选择,A 项为正确答案。
D
Don’t like seeds in your tomatoes?You might be pleased to know that seedless ones have been created by gene editing.
This could create a wide range of seedless fruits,but few may ever be seen in the supermarket if regulators decide to treat gene-edited crops in the same way as genetically engineered ones.
Several seedless fruits,from bananas to grapes,are already available,but have mostly come about by luck rather than design.And although there are a few seedless varieties of tomatoes,they’ve taken researchers many years to create.
Now it can be done very quickly,as Keishi Osakabe at Tokushima University in Japan has shown.His team used the CRISPR gene editing technology to make fruits develop even though no seeds had begun to form.“We haven’t tasted them yet,but in theory they should taste the same,”says Osakabe.
There have been a few efforts to create seedless tomatoes using earlier genetic-engineering techniques.These methods take longer time compared with CRISPR.
Some“seedless”fruits just have very small seeds,and still require pollination (授粉).But completely seedless fruits like the edited tomato do not require pollination at all.Such plants could improve food security by reducing our reliance on smaller bee populations,says Saul Cunningham at the Australian National University.
Many fruit growers buy bees to pollinate their crops.
There is a deficiency for farmers,however.Seedless plants usually have to be grown from cuttings,which involves more labor than planting seeds.
CRISPR could be used to develop other types of fruit that don’t require pollinator, as well as introduce beneficial mutations(突变),says Osakabe.
But to make it on to the supermarket,gene-edited plants may have to meet the same standards as genetically engineered plants,which would greatly increase costs. Some argue chat since gene editing is used to introduce mutations already found in some of the plants we eat,it should not require such strict regulations.
12.What has been the problem with tomatoes created in the past?
A.Their taste was not very good.
B.They still had a few big seeds.
C.Their genes could not be recognized.
D.They took quite a long time to create.
13.What did Keishi Osakabe’s team do?
A.They edited tomatoes’genes.
B.They changed the taste of tomatoes.
C.They made seedless bananas and grapes.
D.They created genetically engineered tomatoes.
14.Why is CRISPR better than previous methods?
A.It will still require pollination.
B.It will remain unaffected without bees.
C.It will reduce people’s reliance on food security.
D.It will make many growers buy bees for pollination.
15.What does the underlined word“deficiency”in Paragraph probably mean?
A.Danger.
B.Disadvantage.
C.Benefit.
D.Solution.
【答案】12.D13.A14.B15.B
【解析】
本文是说明文。
文章介绍了研究人员通过基因技术培育出无籽西红柿。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。
由第三段中的And although there are a few seedless varieties of tomatoes, they’ve taken researchers many years to create.(虽然有一些无籽品种的西红柿,但研究人员花了很多年才创造出来)可知,之前的无籽西红柿生长培育周期相当的长。
故选D 项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。
由第四段中的His team used the CRISPR gene-editing technology to make fruits develop even though no seeds had begun to form.(他的团队使用了CRISPR基因编辑技术,使水果得以生长,尽管还没有种子开始形成)可知,Keish Osakabe的科研队伍为了获得无籽西红柿而编辑了西红柿的基因。
故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。
由第六段中的But completely seedless fruits like the edited tomato do not require pollination at all.(但是像编辑过的番茄这样完全无籽的水果根本不需要授粉)可知,无籽西红柿不需要授粉,所以即使没有蜜蜂,这项技术也不会受到影响。
故选B 项。
【15题详解】
词义猜测题。
划线单词所在句有转折副词“however”存在,因此可推知后文讲述的是无籽西红柿给农民带来的不利之处。
且后文“Seedless plants usually have to be grown from cuttings,which involves more labor than planting seeds.(无籽植物通常要从插枝开始生长,这比播种要耗费更多的劳力)可知,无籽植物需要投入更多的劳动力,所以对农民而言是不利的,故deficiency在此处的意思和disadvantage一致。
故选B项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
选项中有两项为多余选项。
The Millennial Trains Project is a non-profit organization that enables young people to get involved in creative projects.The organization leads crowdfunded train journeys.____16____The organization has already completed two journeys,through the northern and central United States.Twenty-four people are now getting ready to be a part of the third.

F.Tyson Foods had supported the project for a10-day journey across the US.
G.She wants to find out what they are doing to encourage more people to read.【答案】16.E17.C18.B19.G20.A
【解析】
本文是说明文,文章介绍了Millennial Trains Project这个组织,旨在鼓励年轻人通过旅行参与到一些有创造性的活动中去。
【16题详解】
所填空在段中,承前启后的作用。
根据名词复现原则,由上文“The organization leads crowdfunded train journeys.”以及下文“The organization has already completed two journeys,”可知train journeys为这三句话的主题,因此所填空应继续讨论train journeys。
E项“These journeys provide the young with the chance to help different communities.
(这些旅程为年轻人提供了帮助不同社区的机会)中的these journeys指代上文中的train journeys,the young指代下文中的young people。
故选E项。
【17题详解】
所填空在段中,承前启后。
由上文中的each person has to raise$5,000和下文中的The idea 可知,该组织的成员不仅需要等集资金,同时还需要为活动献计献策。
C项“Besides money, they also need to have an idea for a project.”(除了钱,他们还需要有一个项目的想法)符合语境表达。
故选C项。
【18题详解】
所填空在段首,中心主旨句。
由下文中的内容可知,该段主要介绍了一位男性成员希望自己能在高等教育方面做些事情,B项“Trevor Eagle wants to make s difference to the education system.(特雷弗·伊格尔想要改变教育系统)”概括了本段主旨要义。
故选B项。
【19题详解】
所填空在段中,承前启后。
由下文中的“She also wants to know if they are using social media to connect with people(她还想知道他们是否在使用社交媒体与人联系)”可知,设空处应当还介绍了有关“她”想做的某件事情。
再由上文中的bookstores和libraries 可知,G项“She wants to find out what they are doing to encourage more people to read.”中encourage more people to read与其为同现关系。
故选G项。
【20题详解】
所填空在段中,承前启后。
A项“She then plans to create a game to help people prepare for disasters.”中的plans to create a game及disasters和上文中的is planning to 及Hurricanes,tornadoes,wildfires,floods相呼应。
因此A项符合语境。
故选A项。
