As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.
Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never agree because the walls were so old that some stones were loose and falling. However, my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally I had all my courage to enter the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.
“I want to climb the stone walls.” I said. “Heavens no! You’ll hurt yourself!” The response was just as I’d expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute.”I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.”
“Go,” he said to me, “and come and see me when you get back. ”For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls—and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”
Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit. ”There’s only one person in this whole world like you,“ the kids will hear me say, ”and people can like you exactly as you are.
4. Why did the writer enjoy his visits to the farm?
A. There were old stone houses. B. He could experience new fun there.

细节理解题。根据文章第一段“As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.(当我还是个孩子的时候,没有什么比在宾夕法尼亚州西部祖父的农场里度过周日下午更让我喜欢的了。房子和田地被绵延数英里的蜿蜒石墙环绕着,为像我这样的城市孩子提供了无尽的乐趣。)”可知,作者喜欢去农场是因为他可以在那里体验到新的乐趣。故选B项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段最后两句““Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”(“弗雷德,”他微笑着说,“你做了你自己,使今天成为一个特别的日子。永远记住,这个世界上只有一个人喜欢你,我喜欢真实的你。”)”可知,作者的祖父支持他遵从自己的内心。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段““I want to climb the stone walls.” I said. “Heavens, no! You’ll hurt yourself!” The response was just as I’d expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute.”I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.”(“我想爬上石墙。”我说。“天,不!你会伤到自己的!”大家的反应和我预料的一样。但在我离开房间之前,我被祖父的大声的声音打断了。“现在请稍等一下。”我听见他说。“让孩子爬上石墙。他必须学会自己做事。”)”可推知,祖父是一个非常开明的人。故选B项。

主旨大意题。根据文章最后一句“There’s only one person in this whole world like you,“ the kids will hear me say, ”and people can like you exactly as you are.(这个世界上只有一个人喜欢你,”孩子们会听到我说,“人们会喜欢真实的你。)”结合作者与祖父之间的故事可知,本文主要围绕着“做你自己就好”这一主题。故选C项。
C
Can a computer think? That depends on what you mean by “think”. If solving a mathematical problem is “thinking”, then a computer can “think” and do so much faster than a man. Most mathematical problems can be solved quite mechanically by repeating certain straightforward processes over and over again. Even the simple computers of today can be geared for that.
It is frequently said that computers solve problems only because they are “programmed” to do so. They can only do what men have them do. One must remember that human beings also can only do what they are “programmed” to do. Our genes “program” us the instant the fertilized ovum (受精卵) is formed, and our potentialities are limited by that “program”.
Our “program” is so much more enormously complex, though, that we might like to define “thinking” in terms of the creativity that goes into writing a great play or composing a great symphony, into developing a brilliant scientific theory or a profound moral judgment. In that sense, computers certainly can’t think and neither can most humans.
Surely, though, if a computer can be made complex enough, it can be as creative as humans. If it could be made as complete as a human brain, it could be the equivalent of a human brain and do whatever a human brain can do.
But how long will it take to build a computer complex enough to duplicate (复制) the human brain? Perhaps not as long as someone thinks. Long before we approach a computer as complex as our brain, we will perhaps build a computer that is at least complex enough to design another computer more complex than itself. This more complex computer could design one still more complex and so on and so on and so on.
In other words, once we pass a certain critical point, the computers take over and there is a “complexity explosion”. In a very short time thereafter, computers may exist that not only duplicate the human brain but far surpass it.
8. In what sense does the writer think that humans are programmed?
A. He thinks a man’s abilities are not limited, as a computer’s are.
B. Their characteristics, powers, etc. are fixed before birth.
C. In the sense that humans will always be superior to computers.
D. Computers must be operated by men, but man can operate by himself.
9. The writer mentions two kinds of “thinking”. They are________.
A. mathematical thinking and language thinking
B. writing thinking and composing thinking
C. mechanical thinking and creative thinking
D. none of the above
10. What does the “critical point” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. When one computer is itself clever enough to design a better one.
B. The point at which a computer is an exact copy of a human brain.
C. When a computer can be made as creative as we are.
D. When the computers destroy each other in an explosion.
11. The underlined word “explosion” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A. damage B. noise
C. excitement D. leap forward
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要谈论了电脑是否会思考的问题,论述了人类的两种“思考”方式以及计算机是否存在超越人脑的可能性。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“One must remember that human beings also can only do what they are “programmed” to do. Our genes “program” us the instant the fertilized ovum (受精卵) is formed, and our potentialities are limited by that “program”.”(人们必须记住,人类也只能做他们“被编程”要做的事情。我们的基因在受精卵形成的那一刻就给我们“编程”了,我们的潜能受到了这个“程序”的限制。)可知,作者认为人类被编程是由于人类的性格、能力等在出生前就已经由基因决定的。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Most mathematical problems can be solved quite mechanically by repeating certain straightforward processes over and over again.”(大多数数学问题都可以通过一遍又一遍地重复某些简单的过程来机械地解决。)以及第三段“Our “program” is so much more enormously complex, though, that we might like to define “thinking” in terms of the creativity that goes into writing a great play or composing a great symphony, into developing a brilliant scientific theory or a profound moral judgment.”(然而我们的“程序”是如此的复杂,以至于我们可能会把“思考”定义成创作一部伟大的戏剧或创作一部伟大的交响乐、发展一项杰出的科学理论或作出深刻的道德判断所需要的创造力。)可知,作者提到的两种“思考”是机械性思维和创造性思维。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“In a very short time thereafter, computers may exist that not only duplicate the human brain but far surpass it.”(在那之后很短的时间内,可能存在的计算机不仅能复制人脑而且远远超过人脑。)可知,最后一段的临界点指的是一台电脑到达可以超越人类的智慧程度时,它为了超越人脑会设计出更好的电脑。故选A项。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“In a very short time thereafter, computers may exist that not only duplicate the human brain but far surpass it.”(在那之后很短的时间内,可能存在的计算机不仅能复制人脑而且远远超过人脑。)可知,计算机在我们突破临界点后会有实质性的飞跃可以超越人脑,说明计算机在未来会有迅速的发展,推断出explosion意为“快速发展”,与leap forward意思相同。故选D项。
D
At 3:30 a.m. EDT on April 19, the Ingenuity helicopter --- which landed on Mars with the Perseverance rover (漫游者) in February --- took off from the Martian surface. More importantly, it circled for about 30 seconds, three meters above the surface and came right back down again.
It may not sound like a huge achievement, but it is. Ingenuity’s flight is the first powered flight of an aircraft on another planet. It marks the milestone in the story of human space exploration.
There are several technological challenges to conduct helicopter flight in another world. First, and more significantly, helicopters need an atmosphere to fly. The blades (桨叶), or “rotors” of a helicopter must spin (旋转) fast enough to generate a force called “lift”. But lift can only be generated in the presence of some kind of atmosphere. While Mars does have an atmosphere, it’s much, much thinner than Earth’s --- about 100 times thinner, in fact.
Flying Ingenuity in Mar’s atmosphere is therefore the equivalent (对等物) of flying a helicopter on Earth at a height of 100,000 feet. For reference, commercial aircraft fly between 30,000-40,000 feet above the Earth’s surface and the highest we’ve ever been in a helicopter on Earth is 42,000 feet.
Then there’s the Martian gravity to consider. It is about one-third the strength of gravity on Earth, which means we’d be able to lift Ingenuity with less power than would be required here. But while Mars’ gravity works to our advantage, this is cancelled out by the lack of atmosphere.
Even sending the signal for the flight to begin required a collection of advanced technology. While it only requires minutes for radio signals to travel between Earth and Mars, there was still a delay of hours for those signals to reach the helicopter.
All these things require Ingenuity to be light enough. Actually, it weighs less than 4 pounds, stands just 1.6 feet tall, and carries batteries, heaters and sensors. Besides, its two rotors had to spin about 2,400 revolutions per minute — five times faster than on Earth.
When in flight, Ingenuity’s shadow gives the impression of oversized, four-winged dragonfly. But the tiny craft is set to make an enormous impact on space exploration. “Sojourner’s technical exposure in 1997 gave NASA the guarantee of future pilots. What the Ingenuity team has done has given us a new chance. I think that’s the way we build the future,” said JPL director Michael Watkins. In addition, Watkins believes that Ingenuity is expected to lay the foundation for more antigravity spacecraft capable of exploring other worlds in a totally new way.
12. Which of the following is of extraordinary significance according to the author?
A. The Ingenuity helicopter landed on Mars successfully
B. The Ingenuity helicopter made its first flight on Mars.
C. The Ingenuity helicopter stayed on Mars for a long time
D. The Ingenuity helicopter travelled between Mars and Earth.
13. What can we learn about Mars’ atmosphere?
A. It can hardly provide a lift for Ingenuity to fly.
B. It’s not safe for Ingenuity to fly high and fast.
C. It’s too thin to keep Ingenuity stable in the air.
D. It can only raise Ingenuity to a height of 100,000 feet.
14. What can we know from Paragraph 3 to Paragraph 6?
A. How Ingenuity performed during the flight
B. Why Ingenuity’s flight on Mars is a big deal
C. How Ingenuity survived the tough conditions of Mars
D. What contributed to the successful flight of Ingenuity
15. Why did Michael Watkins mention Sojourner?
A. To explain how its mission differs from Ingenuity’s.
B. To show technological progress in Mars exploration.
C To stress the significance of Ingenuity’s flight on Mars.
D. To illustrate the impact of space exploration on future flight.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了“独创”号直升机首次在火星上飞行,以及其在在火星上飞行所需要的技术的突破。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It may not sound like a huge achievement, but it is. Ingenuity’s flight is the first powered flight of an aircraft on another planet. It marks the milestone in the story of human space exploration.(这听起来可能不是一个巨大的成就,但它是。这是飞行器在另一个星球上的首次机动飞行。它标志着人类太空探索史上的一个里程碑。)”可知“独创”号直升机首次在火星上飞行。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“But lift can only be generated in the presence of some kind of atmosphere. While Mars does have an atmosphere, it’s much, much thinner than Earth’s-about 100 times thinner, in fact.(但是升力只能在有某种大气存在的情况下产生。虽然火星确实有大气层,但它比地球要薄得多——事实上,大约是地球的100倍。)”以及文章第四段“Flying Ingenuity in Mar’s atmosphere is therefore the equivalent (对等物) of flying a helicopter on Earth at a height of 100,000 feet. For reference, commercial aircraft fly between 30,000-40,000 feet above the Earth’s surface and the highest we’ve ever been in a helicopter on Earth is 42,000 feet.(因此,在火星大气层中进行飞行相当于在地球上10万英尺的高空驾驶一架直升机。作为参考,商用飞机在地球表面上空3万~ 4万英尺之间飞行,我们在地球上乘坐的最高直升机是4.2万英尺。)”可知火星大气层几乎不能为“独创”号直升机提供飞行的动力。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“There are several technological challenges to conduct helicopter flight in another world. First, and more significantly, helicopters need an atmosphere to fly.(在另一个世界进行直升机飞行有几个技术挑战。首先,更重要的是,直升机需要大气层才能飞行。)”;文章第四段“Flying Ingenuity in Mar’s atmosphere is therefore the equivalent (对等物) of flying a helicopter on Earth at a height of 100,000 feet.(在火星大气层飞行相当于在地球上10万英尺高空飞行的直升机。)”;文章第五段“Then there’s the Martian gravity to consider.(然后还要考虑火星的重力。)”;以及第六段“Even sending the signal for the flight to begin required a collection of advanced technology (即使是发射信号让飞行开始也需要一套先进的技术)”可知,文章第三段到第六段主要讲解的是为什么“独创”号在火星上的飞行是一件大事。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Sojourner’s technical exposure in 1997 gave NASA the guarantee of future pilots. What the Ingenuity team has done has given us a new chance. I think that’s the way we build the future.(1997年,“旅居者”的技术接触给了NASA未来飞行员的保障。“独创”号团队的工作给了我们一个新的机会。我认为这就是我们创造未来的方式。)”可知,迈克尔·沃特金斯提到“旅居者”是为了强调“独创”号在火星上飞行的重要性。故选C。

House Sitting
In many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting. It means that if owners of the house are going away, they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away.
In Australia, many people travel. After people retire, they might buy a van and travel all over the country. ___16___
So if someone wants to travel or go away for some reason, they might want someone in their home to care for it and keep the gardens tidy. House sitters might have to care for pets. Also, quite a few people have swimming pools in their back yard and they need cleaning.___17___ I feel it is a great way of seeing the country, because you go and stay in a new city, get to meet new people, and have time to go sightseeing in a new area.
___18___ There are websites where you find the advertisements by people who want to travel, and by replying to the advertisement, you can make arrangements to go and look after their home.
There are some requirements to be a house sitter. You must be a trusted person, so that the home owner knows you will not steal anything. You must be able to go when the house owner wants you to go, so you need lots of free time.___19___ You need to be good with pets, able to care for cats and dogs, or other pets they may have.
Some house sitting jobs are just for a few days or a couple of weeks while the house owners have a short holiday. Sometimes it is for much longer. We have had one house sit for six months, while the home owner travelled to Europe.
___20___ Then you can travel to many different countries and stay there. One of the important things to get is references from the home owners where you have stayed. A reference is a written letter to say that you are trustworthy and have looked after their home well. You can show these letters to possible house sitting jobs and they know you will do a good job.
A. I have done house sitting many times.
B. Thousands of people do this all the time.
C. It is also possible to do house sitting in other countries.
D. Generally you have many opportunities to get a house sitting job.
E. You must take a little care over what your description says about you.
F. This is an international house sitting service for all city and country areas.
G. You must have a good car, so you can travel to different parts of the country.
【答案】16. B 17. A 18. D 19. G 20. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文,介绍了国外有很多经常旅游的家庭,家里的宠物没法管啊,庭院需要打理,或者怕被偷被盗什么的可以找个house sitting就是帮人看房子的,人们可以通过得到看房子工作节省旅游成本,并到全世界旅行。
【16题详解】
考查上下文语境理解。根据上一句的提示,In Australia, many people travel. After people retire, they might buy a van and travel all over the country.在澳大利亚有很多人旅游,应该是很多人都这样做。故B合适。
【17题详解】
考查上下文语境理解。A项说明作者经常这样做,下文描述的是作者对此做法的感受,故A合适。
【18题详解】
考查上下文语境理解。选项中的many opportunities与下一句介绍的There are websites where you find the advertisements by people who want to travel,相对应,有很多机会可以从事看房工作,故选D。
【19题详解】
考查上下文语境理解。因为目的是旅游,所以一辆好车是必备的,这样你可以很方便的去其他地方。故选G。
【20题详解】
考查上下文语境理解。由下文的you can travel to many different countries可知,此处讲去其他国家旅行也可以用这种方式,故C项符合。
【点睛】该类题型要求从短文后的七个选项中(均为完整的句子)选出五个能填入文章空处的最佳选项,主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。其命题形式深受英语四六级和考研阅读多项选择题的影响,体现了《新课标》“用英语获取、处理和运用信息的能力;逐步获取用英语思维的能力。”的阅读学习和教学理念。该题型命题形式仍然具有客观题的特点,又与完形填空具有异曲同工之妙,只是选项少,以句子形式出现,考查目的和侧重点不完全相同而已。
从《考试说明》对该题型命题目的的表述“主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。”可以得出以下判断:该题备选项可分为主旨概括句(文章整体内容)、过渡性句子(文章结构)和注释性句子(上下文逻辑意义)三类。其多余的两个干扰项也往往从这三方面进行设置,例如主旨概括句或过于宽泛或以偏概全或偏离主题,过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构,注释性句子与上文脱节等。
分析篇章结构,把握全篇文脉是阅读填空题解题的关键,英语的语篇(discourse)通常是由句子和语段(sentence group)构成的,语段是句子和语篇之间的中间层次,句子虽然能够单独地表达相对完整的思想,但是它不能表达多方面的、比较复杂的思想,只有把几个句子结合为较大的言语片段,才能表达一个相对独立的层意,所谓的“积句而成章,积章而成篇。”就是这个道理。
分析文章的层次包含两种形式:一种是分析整篇文章的层次,也就是段落,另一种是分析每一个段落内部的层次,也就是语篇层次。
语篇与段落是有区别的,语段是篇章结构的中间层次,是由句子到篇的一种过渡形式,段落(paragraph)是在某些语体(如记叙文、议论文)中比语段更大的意义单位,较小的段落可以只包括一个语段或一个句子,一般来说,一个段落通常由几个语段构成。构成语段的方式有两种,一是靠句际间意义的结合,二是靠句际间的关联词,逻辑性插入语来连接,在分析语段层次时,可以借助句际间的连接词语作出判断,但最主要的还是要真正体会句际间的意义关系,把握作者的思路,从语序上去发现断续点,理清层次,好文章的层次非常清晰,只有层层入手,才能真正理解文章。
其实,“七选五”跟传统题型完形填空有相似之处,只要考生选择的答案能够使行文连贯,符合英文的语法以及习惯表达就行。另外,从该题型给出的选项中我们可以发现一些特点:该题型选项大致可分为主旨概括句(文章整体内容)、过渡性句子(文章结构)和注释性句子(上下文逻辑意义)三类。另外两个多余的干扰项也可以通过这三个特点来排除,例如主旨概括句要么过于宽泛要么以偏概全或偏离主题;过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构;注释性句子与上文脱节等。
一、先通读选项,理解句意,同时掌握选项特点并比较语义重心的异同。比如,通过阅读选项,有可能找出跟其他选项表达完全不同意思的句子,这样的话我们就可以直接将该选项排除。
二、再通读全文,了解大意并分析篇章结构,着重看空前空后。由于“七选五”空出的是句子,而这些句子与句子之间,必然有一种联系。因此,我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间的关联性,从而选择正确的答案。如;【小题2】A考查上下文理解。A项说明作者经常这样做,下文描述的是作者对此做法的感受,故A合适。
三、根据语境线索选择答案,注意抓住其关键词语。
语境线索主要指反映上下文关系的衔接手段,如篇章结构、词语重现、逻辑、连接、指称、同构等。
1.篇章结构通常为总--分或总--分--总。
2.词语重现不是指词语的简单再现,而是指某个词语可能以不同的词类、性、数、格、时、体、态等形式出现。如read, reading, readers,还可能以同义词或反义词的形式出现。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The Difference a Teacher Can Make
Steve, a twelve-year-old boy with alcoholic parents, was about to be lost forever by the U.S. education system. Remarkably, he could read, yet, he was failing. He had been failing since first grade. Though Steve looked bigger than his age, yet he went unnoticed… until Miss White.
Miss White was a smiling, young, beautiful lady! Steve liked his new teacher; yet, still he failed. He never did his homework. Whenever he was punished for failing to turn in his homework, he felt just terrible! Still, he did not study.
Last week, the entire seventh grade was tested for basic skills. Steve hurried through his tests, and continued to dream of other things. His heart was not in school, but in the woods, where he often stayed alone after school. He was always alone because no one cared. Oddly, Steve never missed a day of school.
One day, Miss White’s impatient voice broke into his daydreams.
“Steve!” Shocked, he turned to look at her.
“Pay attention!” Miss White began to go over the test results for the seventh grade. “You all did pretty well” she told the class, “except for one boy, and it breaks my heart to tell you this, but...” She hesitated, pinning Steve to his seat with a sharp stare. “The smartest boy in the seventh grade is failing my class!” She just stared at Steve, as the class turned around for a good look. Steve dropped his eyes and carefully examined his fingertips.
“Just try it! ONE WEEK!” He was unmoved.
“You’re smart enough! You’ll see a change!” Nothing changed him.
“Give yourself a chance! Don’t give up on your life!” Nothing.
“Steve! Please! I care about you!”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右。
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Wow! Suddenly, Steve got it: someone cared about him!
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The following Monday, Miss White gave another test.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Wow! Suddenly, Steve got it: someone cared about him! He couldn’t believe his ears. He looked up at Miss White in wonder. From her eager eyes, he could feel the warmth and the real care. On the way back home, those words constantly echoed in his mind. When he got home, for the first time in his life, he didn’t storm out of the room for the woods. He seated himself before the desk and placed his schoolbooks on it. Determined, he turned the first page open.
The following Monday, Miss White gave another test. Spreading the paper carefully on his desk, Steve hurried through the test and was the first to hand in his paper. Obviously puzzled, Miss White began to look it over. In shock, she glanced up at Steve, then down, then up. Suddenly, her face broke into a bright smile. “The smartest boy had just passed his first test!” she announced, proud and excited! At her words, Steve cracked a big smile, with his eyes sparkling with joy and gratitude. He knew that was all because of a teacher who cared about him
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述12岁的Steve,父母都是酒鬼,他的成绩一直不及格。在一次七年级测试中,White老师说他是最聪明的男孩但是成绩却不及格。随后White老师对他进行鼓励和关心,让他感受到了温暖和真切的关怀,于是用功学习,终于在下一次考试中及格了。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“哇!突然,史蒂夫明白了:有人关心他!”可知,第一段描述Steve在感受到White老师深切的关怀后的一系列心理变化和他在回家后的行为,他开始认真写作业了。
②由第二段首句内容“接下来的星期一,怀特小姐做了另一次测试。”可知,第二段描述Steve测试的过程和结果,他通过了他的第一次考试。
2.续写线索:Steve的心理变化——Steve回家——Steve写作业——Steve做测验——Steve第一次及格——Steve的喜悦和感激
3.词汇激活
