閱讀理解（第一節(jié)20小題，第二節(jié)5小題；每小題2分，滿分50分）第一節(jié)：閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（a、b、c和d）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該選項(xiàng)標(biāo)號(hào)涂黑。asome 30,000 years ago, artists who lived in caves in europe painted pictures of the animals around them: panthers, hyenas, rhinos, cave lions, mammoths and other creatures which have been extinct for a long time. the paintings were highly realistic. some even showed movement. the artwork, more than a thousand drawings, is considered the oldest group of human cave drawings which have ever been discovered. they were preserved because the cave was sealed- closed off-for more or less 23,000 years. fast forward to december 18, 1994, a group of french cave scientists were exploring caves in southern france. jean-marie chauvet, who led the group then, describes the process of discovering the cave paintings. “at that time i was in the front, eliette just walked behind me, christian behind. eliette said she saw two marks made with red ochre and she said, they came here. and at this very moment everything began. the drawings and everything linked to the parietal art (壁畫). that is where it started.” cave art expert jean clottes reviewed the paintings. “i was amazed at the number of paintings there were and paintings of their quality and particularly in front of the panel of the horses.”scientific analysis confirmed the prehistoric date of the artwork. studies showed the drawings were created tens of thousands of years ago, before human history was written. the united nations cultural agency unesco lists the cave as a world heritage site. they say that the drawings form a remarkable expression of early human artistic creation of grand excellence and variety. the chauvet cave has been named after the explorer who first entered it. however, its environment and drawings are too fragile to be visited by human beings. so the cave is closed, and only people there for scientific purposes can go inside and see the artwork. however, french authorities asked experts to create an exact copy of the cave, called pont darc cavern. the copy, which we also call replica, cost more than 59 million dollars to build. it opened at the end of april in france. pascal terrasse is the president of the cavern. he says everyone will be able to experience the thrill of looking at drawings made by the first humans in europe. he says the place is magic because it is done so well. authorities say they think as many as 400.000 people will be allowed to visit pont darc cavern every year. 41. according to the passage, the first scientist to enter the cave was _.a. christian b. eliette c. clottes d. chauvet 42. according to jean clottes words in paragraph 4, the paintings in the cave were _.a. abstract b. superior c. creative d. inspiring 43. which of the following statements is true about the chauvet cave?a. it was closed off for more than 30,000 years.b. it is thought to be the origin of modern parietal art.c. the environment and artwork there are very easy to damage.d. the majority of drawings there are about the extinct animals.44. who can pay a visit to the chauvet cave nowadays?a. people who do scientific research.b. scientists who found the cave first.c. officials protecting historical heritage.d. scientists from the united nations.45. the purpose of creating pont darc cavern is to _.a. show admiration for the earliest artists in europeb. arouse visitors awareness of protecting ancient art c. offer visitors chances to view the wonderful artworkd. collect money for the perseverance of the chauvet cave bthis coming year promises to be an exciting one for technology and science. there is already a line-up of great new gadget (小玩意). we have chosen four for you.no. 1 the air board 1.0 is a fantastic new way to get around. if you are tired of walking, or just want to get somewhere at a relaxed pace, then the air board 1.0 is for you. the board works when you step onto the pressure pads. these can read the weight and the movement of the rider. if you want to turn, all you have to do is move your weight to the left or right and the board will do the rest. it is very quick and easy. according to the official website, the power will last for about ten miles (16 km). it can travel at the speed of 10 miles an hour and it takes one hour to be fully charged.no. 2 do you enjoy using herbs and spices (香料) when cooking? then this little gadget, inspired by nasa space technology, might be for you. it makes sure that you always have fresh and well-grown herbs or plants when and where you need them. the click & grow is designed to be small and efficient so it can fit on your countertop (廚房操作臺(tái)). it is self-watering, it checks itself and it also has a led grown light that makes sure the plants grow fast, strong, and healthy. for those interested, to use this gadget, all you need to do is place the plant box in, fill it up with water and plug it in. simple, right? so instead of digging through the garden mud for your herbs, why dont you make them in the control of your own kitchen? no. 3 the miito gadget is perfect for all homes, and especially those who like to care for the environment. miito has been called “the kettle of the future” by the gadget flow platform for its futuristic ideas and design. the miito kettle is designed to heat up the water in any container. for example, if you need a cup of water, you would fill the cup with the right amount of water and place it onto the kettle. after placing the rod into the water, the rod would heat up and so would the water. though it cant heat anything made of iron, the miitos design and unique method of heating dont only save water. they also save electricity. no. 4 have you ever wished you could walk through the worlds of your games, seeing things as your characters would? well now, you can. the rift released by oculus vr is the latest and greatest in gaming technology so far. designed by american palmer luckey, 23, this clever head set allows you to see the worlds of your games in 3-d. although you might need to upgrade your computer to get the full gaming experience with the rift, its the next step in virtual reality and its improving the way we can play games. alongside the oculus headset, the teams are working on creating a controller named oculus. the oculus rift has been designed so that players cant only see, but also play in, 3-d worlds.46. it will take you _ to get to your school (2.5 miles away) on a fully-charged air board 1.0.a. 8 minutesb. 10 minutesc. 12 minutesd. 15 minutes 47. no. 2 can be sorted as a _ gadget. a. gardening b. transportationc. gamingd. cooking48. according to the passage, which of the following statements is true?a. all the four gadgets have to be operated by hand.b. miito, a kettle made of iron, can save electricity.c. the clever head set, the rift, has been named after its designer.d. the rift is one of the popular gaming products by oculus vr.49. where is the text most probably from?a. an experiment report. b. a travel journal.c. a science report. d. a scientific story. cbefore 1840 architects and builders made buildings from stone, brick, or wood. the outside walls held up the weight of the building. a building that had more than a few stories became very heavy. a tall building, such as a castle, had very thick walls.as time went by, architecture began to change. by 1850 builders had begun to use a metal called iron for the fronts of some large buildings. iron is lighter than stone and stronger than wood. people dig raw iron from the ground, but raw iron is not enough to use in buildings. builders must use another type of iron called an alloy. an alloy is a metal that contains different metals and other compounds, or mixtures of chemicals. the metals and compounds are melted and mixed together to form the alloy. to make an iron alloy, workers use a blast furnace. this machine creates great heat. it has a tall chamber that is lined with brick and open at the top. workers put limestone, raw iron, and coke (a substance made from coal) into the top of the furnace. they force hot air into the bottom of the furnace. the hot air and a chemical reaction turn the materials into a liquid mass. workers pour off waste liquid, called slag, and save the iron. then they form the hot iron into large blocks called pigs, which can be formed into objects. this formed iron is called cast iron. cast iron is strong, but it still contains unwanted materials. people wanted to remove these impurities. to do this, they needed to heat the iron to very high temperature. blast furnaces could not make that much heat.in england in 1855, sir henry bessemer found the solution. he forced air through liquid pig iron. the oxygen in the air mixed with the impurities in the iron in a process called oxidation. oxidation creates heat. the heat turns impurities into slag, which is poured off so that only pure steel remains. pure steel is much stronger than iron. the bessemer process took place in an egg-shaped machine called a converter. with this process, workers began to make large amounts of steel quickly and cheaply. by the late 1800s, many people lived in big cities. the price of land increased, one way builders could lower costs was to build taller buildings, which used less land. in chicago in 1889, george a. fuller completed the tacoma buildings, which had steel beams to hold up its weight. soon people built more tall buildings with 10 to 20 stories. these were the first skyscrapers. 50. alloys are important because they _. a. have no impurities b. are the raw materials that people use to make ironc. may be more useful than the separate metals in the alloy d. contain different metals51. the bessemer process was a success because it produced _. a. iron from steelb. steel quickly and cheaplyc. less slag than a blast furnace d. impurities in the iron52. sir henry bessemer probably _.a. avoided difficult problemsb. created slag into pure steelc. was not familiar with metals such as steeld. knew how to make cast iron53. from the article, you can conclude that architects throughout history _. a. thought carefully about materials when they designed buildingsb. could not design creative buildings until steel was invented c. disliked stone, brick, and woodd. liked to design tall buildings54. which of the statements below expresses the main idea of the article?a. discoveries about iron and steel have allowed people to build taller buildings. b. sir henry bessemer developed a process to make steel. c. architects use many kinds of materials in buildings. d. changes about designing building. dmy fathers family is not a musical family. they are a family of words. my brother has my fathers dark hair, his love of a good argument. i take after my mother. from her i inherited a curious nature, a sense of adventure, bright red hair. i did not, contrary to her hopes, inherit a talent for the piano.
