第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)
A
Chinese female scientist Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Priz e in medicine on October 5 for her discoveries concerning a n ovel treatment against Malaria(疟
疾). This is the first Nobel Prize given to a Chinese scientist f or work carried out within China.
Tu shared the prize with Irish-
born William Campbell and Satoshi Omura of Japan, who wer e honored for their revolutionary anti-
roundworm treatment. 84-year-
old Tu is awarded this prize for her contribution to cutting the death rate of malaria, reducing patients’ suffering and promoti ng mankind’s health. Although she received several medical a wards in the past, the 2015 Nobel Prize is definitely the most
privilege reward that recognizes Tu’s dedication and persever ance in discovering artemisinin(青蒿
素), the key drug that battles malaria-friendly parasites(寄生虫).
However, her route to the honor has been anything but traditi onal. She won the Nobel Prize for medicine, but she doesn’t h ave a medical degree or a PhD. In China, she is even being c alled the “three-
noes” winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she’s nev er worked overseas. No wonder her success has stirred Chin a’s national pride and helped promote confidence of native Ch inese scientists.
The fact that Tu has none of these three backgrounds remind s us that science should be more accessible to all. One shall be able to become a scientist no matter what kind of backgrou nd he or she comes from, as long as one dives into scientific r esearch. There have been discussions on people who really l ove science but are never able to achieve much during their w hole life. Their contributions can never be ignored. They work so hard to prove the wrong way so that the future researchers will be closer to the right one.
As the first Chinese mainland Nobel Prize Winner of natural s cience award, Tu’s record-
breaking winning also serves as a reminder to those who are t oo eager for instant success. Science is never about instant s uccess. Tu spent decades on scientific research before its val ue is officially acknowledged. There is no way to measure ho w much one devotes to science and compare it with how muc
h reward he or she may get.
21. It can be concluded from the text that __________.
A. Tu worked home and abroad to conduct her research
B. Her discovery of artemisinin has helped to cut Malaria deat h rate
C. The Nobel Prize is the first award to recognize her work
D. Tu got the Nobel Prize for her anti-roundworm treatment
22. The author seems to agree that a person who is more likel y to become a scientist is the one with__________.
A. a sense of national pride
B. enthusiasm f or scientific research
C. a desire to achieve success
D. relevant ac ademic knowledge
23. In writing the passage, the author intends to ___________.
A. remind readers of the principles of scientific research
B. discourage the pursuit of instant success in science
C. inform readers of the news and make comments
D. praise the award winner and encourage scientific research B
As you grow older, you’ll be faced with some challenging deci sions—
like whether to cut class or try cigarettes. Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people get involved and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even ha rder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are calle d peers. When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe an other student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. Maybe you got oth ers excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone’s reading it. These are examples of how peers positively influe nce each other.
Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them; your soccer friend might try to convince you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball.
It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and b eliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the rig
ht thing to do.
You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “cho ose your friends wisely.” Peer pressure is a big reason why th ey say this. If you choose friends who don’t cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won’t do t hese things either, even if other kids do.
If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it diffi cult to handle, talk to someone you trust. Don’t feel guilty if yo u’ve made a mistake or two.
24. For whom is the passage most probably written?
A. Students.
B. Teachers.
C. Parents.
D. Doctors.
25. In the last three paragraphs, the author mainly_____.
A. explains why friendship is so important
B. gives advice on how to deal with peer pressure
C. discusses how peers influence us
D. shows how to make more good friends
26. Which of following may help handle peer pressure?
A. Choosing friends with no bad habits.
B. Taking up m ore relaxing hobbies.
C. Spending more time with classmates.
D. Helping oth ers who are in trouble.
27. What is the topic of the passage?
A. Friendship.
B. Peer pressure
C. Self-confidence
D. Making decisions
C
Robots are being used for the first time in hospitals. “Robot-nurses” perform a variety of tasks such as delivering medicine , food and laboratory samples to sickrooms and taking away waste. Patients aren’t treated by robots, as this is still done by medical staff. The idea is to employ robots to transport suppli es between departments.
“Nurses often have to break off from what they are doing to g ather supplies,” says Peter Seiff, who makes the robots called TUGs. Research shows any interruption in medical work can lead to errors --
- a nurse may forget whether she has given medicine and ma y give a patient double the dose (剂量) or none at all.
The robots vary in size according to what job they perform, bu t normally take the shape of a metal box on wheels, with a bo x on the side containing their software.
After being programmed, the robots are able to find their way around a hospital unassisted. They also contain scanning tec hnology to create electronic pictures or a “memory” of routes on their hard drives to help them go through passages, doors
and other obstacles. Each robot is also monitored at the prod ucer’s headquarters (总部) in case it runs into any difficulties. Trials show TUGs reduce the time it takes for a patient to rece ive medicine, and stop drugs from going missing. A study at t he University of Maryland Medical Centre in the U.S. found th at when three TUGs were used over the course of a year, the average length of time from the drugstore receiving a prescrip tion to the patient receiving it dropped from 74 minutes to 30 minutes and saved nurses 6,123 hours finding medicines. It al so cut the number of medicines that went missing to zero.“The biggest complaints we receive from patients is that the n urses don’t spend enough time with them. Anything that frees nurses is a boon,” says Katherine Mulligan, director of nursing at the hospital, “The TUGs allow nurses to spend more time f ocusing on patient care. Nurse satisfaction has improved.”28. Which of the following activities are robot-
nurses NOT programmed to deal with?
A. Taking care of patients.
B. Taking away wa ste.
C. Transporting supplies.
D. Creating electronic pictures.
29. The underline word “boon” in the last paragraph probably means .
A. habit
B. dream
C. benefit
D. complaint
30. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Robots are unable to find their way by themselves.
B. All robots have the same size.
C. Robots can help nurses save a lot of time.
D. Robots cannot get help if they run into difficulties.
31. What is the attitude of the author towards robot-nurses?
A. Neutral.
B. Unknown.
C. Negative.
D. Positive.
D
Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the stre et? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updat es on WeChat without looking at what was going on around th em. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept ri sing, they have been given a new name — phubbers(低头族).
Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central A cademy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlig ht. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities bur y themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phon e while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie in fr
ont of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without k nowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of simil ar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world. Although the ending sounds overstated, the damage phubbin g can bring is real.
Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Cons tantly bending your head to check your cell phone could dama ge your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted. “the neck is like a ro pe that breaks after long-
term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods o f time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the re port.
But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your so cial skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to stick to th eir cell phones while others are chatting happily with each oth er and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.
It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and w ere robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.
32. Why does the author give the example of a cartoon in Par
a. 2?
A. To indicate the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.
B. To advertise the cartoon made by students.
C. To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.
D. To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating p atients.
33. Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have?
A. He will some day lose the power of speech completely.
B. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.
C. His social skills could be affected.
D. He might get separated from his friends and family.
34. Which of the following may be the author’s attitude toward s phubbing?
A. Supportive.
B. Opposed.
C. Optimistic.
D. Objective.
35. What may the passage talk about next?
A. Advice on how to use a cell phone.
B. People addicted to phubbing.
C. Measures to reduce the risks of phubbing.
D. Consequences of phubbing.

阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg 61 (recent)surprised C hinese students when he spoke to 62 in Chinese.In a talk at Tsinghua University in Beijing,
Zuckerberg spoke Chinese for about 30 minutes. 63 his C hinese was far from perfect,
students and teachers cheered his effort.
C1ayton Dube is the head of the US--
China Institute at the University of Southern California.He pr aises Zuckerberg’s effort and thinks more American CEOs sh ould learn foreign 64 (1anguage).
“To speak Chinese 65 (mean)you begin to think as Chinese people do.You begin to understand how Chinese speakers have their thoughts 66 (organize),
and how they understand things.And that is a vital step if yo u’re going to be culturally qualified.”
Zuckerberg’s talk raises a larger question:
Is Chinese the language of the future? Could it replace Englis
h 67 the world’s international language? Chinese already h as the most native speakers of any language.And,
China may soon pass the United States as the world’s 68 ( 1arge)economy.
The study of 69 Chinese language is increasing in the Unit ed States and around the world.In 2009,about 60,
000 70 (America)college students were studying Chinese.That is three times as many as in 1990.

However, her route to the honor has been anything but traditional. She won the Nobel Prize f or medicine, but she doesn’t have a medical degree or a PhD. In China, she is even being ca lled the “three-
noes” winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she’s never worked overseas. No wonde r her success has stirred China’s national pride and helped promote confidence of native Chi nese scientists.
The fact that Tu has none of these three backgrounds reminds us that science should be mor e accessible to all. One shall be able to become a scientist no matter what kind of backgroun d he or she comes from, as long as one dives into scientific research. There have been discu ssions on people who really love science but are never able to achieve much during their wh ole life. Their contributions can never be ignored. They work so hard to prove the wrong way so that the future researchers will be closer to the right one.
As the first Chinese mainland Nobel Prize Winner of natural science award, Tu’s record-
breaking winning also serves as a reminder to those who are too eager for instant success. S cience is never about instant success. Tu spent decades on scientific research before its val ue is officially acknowledged. There is no way to measure how much one devotes to science and compare it with how much reward he or she may get.

As you grow older, you’ll be faced with some challenging decisions—
like whether to cut class or try cigarettes. Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people get involved and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even ha rder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers. When they try to influe nce how you act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science cl ass taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. Maybe you got oth ers excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone’s reading it. These are example s of how peers positively influence each other.
Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school m ight try to get you to cut class with them; your soccer friend might try to convince you to be m ean to another player and never pass him the ball.
It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attenti on to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” Peer p ressure is a big reason why they say this. If you choose friends who don’t cut class, smoke ci garettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won’t do these things either, even if other k ids do.
If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to handle, talk to someone you trust. Don’t feel guilty if you’ve made a mistake or two.

Robots are being used for the first time in hospitals. “Robot-
nurses” perform a variety of tasks such as delivering medicine, food and laboratory samples t o sickrooms and taking away waste. Patients aren’t treated by robots, as this is still done by medical staff. The idea is to employ robots to transport supplies between departments.“Nurses often have to break off from what they are doing to gather supplies,” says Peter Seiff , who makes the robots called TUGs. Research shows any interruption in medical work can l ead to errors --
- a nurse may forget whether she has given medicine and may give a patient double the dos。
