第二部分阅读理解（满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

21．（6分）What exactly is intelligence? There aren’t any easy answers. Despite the progress that has been made in genetics and psychology, human intelligence has remained one of the most controversial areas of modern science，until now, that is, for the discovery of a gene(基因) linked to intelligence has made the experts think again.
Robert Plomin of the Institute of Psychiatry in London and his colleagues in the US have been looking into genetic make-up. From their research, they have discovered that a slightly different gene is more common in those with a high IQ. Plomin analyzed DNA from two groups of 51 children aged between 6 and 15. What he found was that the first group had an IQ of 136, putting them in the top 5% of the population, while the other group had an average IQ of 103. An analysis of their genes showed that 32% of children in the higher group had the gene in question, while only 16% in the second group did. However, there is a lot more research to be done, and Plomin himself is cautious at this early stage. He suggests that there are probably many genes that contribute to intelligence, rather than just one.
Several studies have shown a strong link between IQ and career success, although some psychologists remain unconvinced about this. Professor Michael Rowe, who has written a book called Genius Explained, is one of these. “The people with the highest IQs are not usually the ones who do best in their careers.”
Many psychologists now believe that when it comes to intelligence, IQ isn’t everything. Many alternative views have been put forward recently. One example is the idea of multiple intelligences, which was developed in the 1980s by Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner. This offers a much broader view than the IQ theory, including creativity and communication skills as relevant factors(因素) in intelligence.
Tony Buzan, brain expert and author of Master your Memory, is enthusiastic about this belief, arguing that true geniuses(天才) do indeed appear to combine high levels of each type of intelligence. He lists Alexander the Great, Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein as examples. At the same time, Buzan believes that everyone can develop their intelligence, only if they take the trouble to exercise their brain. Perhaps there’s hope for us all!
1、What is the topic of the passage?
A．The relationship between genes and intelligence.
B．IQ benefits a lot from high intelligence.
C．How to develop intelligence.
D．What makes intelligence.
2、Why does the author use data in Paragraph 2?
A．To make a suggestion. B．To draw a conclusion.
C．To prove an idea. D．To give an example.
3、What can we learn from the passage?
A．Robert Plomin confirms genes have something in common.
B．Howard Gardner thinks intelligence includes various factors.
C．Michael Rowe approves of a strong link between IQ and career.
D．Tony Buzan agrees geniuses exercise brain to improve intelligence.
4、What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A．The development of intelligence.
B．The idea of multiple intelligences.
C．IQ isn’t everything for int elligence.
D．Alternative views have been put forward.
22．（8分）Movie Nights at the Museum brings you classic movies in a classic location. Each film has been chosen for its connection to an area of our knowledge.

23．（8分）Imagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps an older person company and help them remember to take their medicine. That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The researchers received a $3-nillion-dollar award from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence, or A．I., to Hasbro’s “Joy for All” robotic cat.
The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced over 200 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion” for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additiona l abilities for the cat. Researchers at Brown’s Humanity-Centered Robotics Initiative are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the person to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few
hundred dollars.
It is an idea that has appealed to Jeanne Elliot. Her 13-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia（痴呆）. The boy for All cat that Elliot bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her calm while Eliot is at work. Elliot said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when he walks would be greater.
The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them. By doing so, the researchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among elderly people.
1、What’s the purpose of the project?
A．To relieve the pain of the elderly. B．To promote the sales of a medicine. C．To help make the robotic cat smarter. D．To invent a robotic cat for the elderly.
2、Compared with the old model, the new robotic cat will be ________.
A．cheaper B．smaller
C．more talkative D．more expensive
3、What does Paragraph 3 intend to tell us?
A．The more functions of the cat, the better. B．The cat gives much help to the elderly.
C．There is no cure for dementia at present. D．Mary Derr would have died without the cat.
4、What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．The feeling of being needed is vital to the elderly.
B．Each family can afford such a cat in the future.
C．A talking cat is quite popular among the elderly.
D．Feelings of sadness among the elderly are unavoidable.
24．（8分）The researchers say a person loses two months for every kilogram overweight they are— and seven years for smoking a packet of cigarettes a day.
Unusually, the Edinburgh university team found their answers by analysing
differences in people’s genetic code or DNA．Finally they think it will show new ways of helping us to live longer.
The group used the genetic code of more than 600, 000 people who are taking part in a natural experiment. If someone smokes, drinks, drops out of school and is overweight, it can be difficult to identify the impact of one specific unhealthy behavior.
Instead, the researchers turned to the natural experiment. Some people carry mutations(变异) in their DNA that increase(食欲) or make them more likely to put on weight, so researchers were able to compare those programmed to eat more with those who were not. The research team also found specific mutations in human DNA that alter lifespan (寿命).
●Mutations in a gene (a set of instructions in DNA) that is involved in running the immune system could add seven months of life on average.
●People with a mutation that increased levels of bad cholesterol knocke d eight months off lifespan.
●A rare mutation in a gene—APOE—linked to dementia reduced lifespan by 11 months.
●And one that made smoking more appealing cut lives by five months.
Dr Joshi says that while genes do influence lifespan, “you’ve got even more
i nfluence” through the choices you make. Dr Joshi said, “We hope to discover genes affecting lifespan to give us new information about ageing and construct treatment tor ageing.”
There are also some disease mutations that clearly affect lifespan and to destructive effect, such as the Huntington’s gene. People with Huntington’s often die in their 20s.
However, in order to follow people until the end of their lives, many of the people studied were born before 1940.
1、What is the most difficult for the researchers to find?
A．The differences in people’s genetic code.
B．The reasons why people put on weight very easily.
C．The results of many natural and massive experiments.
D．One bad behaviour’s effect on people with man y bad behaviours.
2、Which of the following mutations affects lifespan most greatly?
A．One linked to controlling immune system.
B．One increasing unhealthy cholesterol.
C．One called APOE involved in dementia.
D．One making smoking more attractive.
3、What’s the meaning of Dr Joshi’s study?
A．To help stop mutations. B．TO find diseases earlier.
C．TO make people live longer. D．TO reduce the effects of genes.
4、Why did researchers mainly study people born before 1940?
A．To follow them until they die. B．TO educate them an extra year.
C．To show they are more important. D．To make them live happier.
25．（10分）At 88, my grandmother Vera has dementia and barely recognizes me. But I’m determined to help her age with di gnity and grace in her home for as long as she can.
Since 2015, I’ve been a manager at Honor, a technology company that uses a website and an app to pair professional caregivers (we call them Care Pros) with loved ones who need a hand. I want to make sure we are offering all our clients (客户), including my grandmother, a service that is affordable, with people who are reliable, diverse and skilled. On Sundays. Amy, my grandmother’s most-loved Honor professional caregiver, comes over to get her dressed for church. She loves the time she spends with Amy. That’s the best gift I can give her and the best gift I can give myself. Care giving can exhaust a family emotionally and physically. At Honor, we’re trying to create something that makes it easier for women to be moms, daughters, and sisters all
at once. That’s why this company was built.
What sets Honor apart from other care giving services is that we’re equally focused on treating the Care Pros well. We pay higher-than-average rates and they can get health benefits and sick leave. Most of our Care Pros are women, and a lot of them arc single mothers. The technology behind our app allows Care Pros to set parameters (参数) based on when, where, and how much they want to work so they can control their schedules. The company also allows continuity of care. Each Care Pro notes in the caregivers’ app how the client is feeling or what should happen on the following shift. That way, the client’s family can stay up to date on their loved one’s health.
When I was working with my team at Honor, I wanted to create opportunities for people who looked like me. I’m proud to say that there are single moms and other
women without traditional educational training who lead teams here. The makeup of this company proves that people with diverse backgrounds can be part of a successful tech company. This has to be a model for the future.
I’m confident it will happen.
1、The author mentions Amy to _______.
A．share a precious memory
B．advocate caring for the elderly
C．show the importance of caregivers
D．inform the readers of a touching story
2、Which of the following about Honor is true?
A．It allows flexible working schedules.
B．It gives higher salary and more paid leave.
C．It mainly employs single mothers and males.
D．It matches caregivers with clients at random.
3、What does the underlined part “stay up to date” probably mean?
A．Go to bed later than usual.
B．Get the latest information.
C．Attend to somebody at fixed time.
D．Accompany somebody day and night.
4、The last paragraph intends to tell us that _______.
A．women are able to hold up half the sky
B．success has nothing to do with education
C．Honor will probably have a better future
D．people with diverse backgrounds will be a model

Last Sunday, some of my classmate and I took a bicycle trip along the “East Lake Green Road”. It specially built for people to relax ourselves. The scenery along the road was breathtaking, with big trees, fragrant flowers, tall hills and clear lakes in both sides. We stopped by a lake for the rest, where a great many people were playing happily. But something unpleasant caught up our eyes. There was rubbish here or there, and there were many plastic bags and bottles floated on the surface of the lakes. Such a beautiful place was so serious polluted. What a shame! Therefore* we couldn’t help collecting the rubbish after we left.

29、Dear Mr. Black
I'm very happy to participate in the Talent Show to be held by the TV station, but I have something unclear to ask.
Could you tell me when it begins and ends? Where is it to be held? Also, I would like to know how you plan the Talent Show. I have a special talent and I am unique. I would like you to know more about me. I am a brilliant juggler. I can juggle balls like a professional juggler in a circus. I can even make the ball roll from arm to arm around my body. There isn’t anyone else in my school who can do this. I am your prefect choice for the Talent Show.
Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua。
