Ⅳ. 阅读理解

A

I've been taking time this week to smell the roses. I bend over in my neighbors' front yard, check that nobody is watching, then bury my head in the flowers.

I've also been walking into bakeries and walking around without buying anything.

After having surgery on my broken nose 18 months ago, I haven't been able to smell or taste things. This week, however, my nose is back in business.

I've been fascinated by smells, and it's given me a new way of thinking. Smell is just one of the little bits and pieces that make life enjoyable, but which we often ignore. I remember once, when my son was 5 months old, I was carrying him down the street. Wind swept through and almost tipped us over. He threw his little head back and giggled（傻笑）. He'd never felt the wind on his face. When is the last time I laughed at the weather?

The first time I ate bacon, I rushed home to my parents, determined that we ate this deliciousness at every meal. My father smiled and agreed.

Do you recall when you learned that the voice actors of Mickey and Minnie Mouse were married in real life? Do you enjoy sleeping in new, clean bed sheets?

We don't write postcards about the small things. We don't frame them in photographs.

They aren't that great or grand, but without them, life is altogether too loud. These quiet experiences give us a chance to enjoy the simple fact of being alive.

As my sense of smell returns to me, it's like I'm smelling things for the first time. They're full of memories and magic. Food tastes better, and the air is indeed sweet. I know what the poets mean now. It almost makes my broken nose worthwhile. Now, I am waiting for this bandage to come off. There's an itch（痒） I can't reach!

1. What does the author try to do in the first two paragraphs?

A. Discuss new ways to enjoy leisure time.

B. Show that she loves doing secret things.

C. Give examples of how she kills time.

D. Get readers to wonder about her behavior.

2. What does the underlined part “a new way of thinking” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A. The ability to discover the joy of small things.

B. The ability to fully use our limited attention.

C. The habit of making personal reflections.

D. The habit of overcoming ignorance.

3. What did the author take for granted before?

A. Memories and magic. B. Valuing being alive.

C. Her sense of smell. D. Laughing at the weather.

4. Which word can be used to describe the author's feeling while writing the text?

A. Depressed. B. Pleased. C. Disturbed. D. Annoyed.

B

What will humans look like in 1, 000 years? Video suggests we could develop red eyes, have darker skin and be better-looking. Climate change, artificial intelligence and genetic mutations（基因突变） are all set to transform our bodies.

In the future tiny robots will be suddenly put into our own bodies, improving our abilities. Meanwhile, designer babies will cause future generations to grow into increasingly intelligent and attractive people. But while that will make us smarter, stronger and better-looking, such genetic similarity leaves room for a single new disease of the future to wipe out the entire human race. As global warming takes hold, humans will also be skinnier and taller, as this body shape is better able to dissipate heat.

Our faces may also change greatly, according to Dr Alan Kwan, who holds a PhD in computational genomics from Washington University in St Louis. Dr Kwan has created a shocking series of images which show one possible evolution for the human race over the next 100, 000 years.

As genetic engineering becomes normal, “the fate of the human face will be increasingly determined by human tastes, ” writes Dr Kwan, while foreheads will continue to expand as our brains continue to grow larger. As man achieves total control over genetics, the human face will become heavily biased（偏向） towards features that humans find attractive: strong lines, straight nose and deep eyes.

Dr Kwan believes eyes will grow very large as the human race colonizes（开拓殖民地） the solar system and people start living in the darker environments of colonies further away from the sun.

Besides, our 80 or 100 is going to be so different than our grandparents. Instead of living fast and dying young, humans will live slow and die old. Some evolutionary（进化学的） scientists believe this age could be as high as 120 by 2050.

5. What will happen to humans in 1, 000 years according to the text?

A. They will become less beautiful.

B. They will be free of all diseases.

C. They will have higher abilities than now.

D. They will be replaced by robots in many areas.

6. What does the underlined word “dissipate” in Paragraph 2 probably mean？

A. Keep something in. B. Drive something out.

C. Make something appear. D. Separate something from others.

7. According to Dr Alan Kwan, 100, 000 years later .

A. humans' faces will be skinnier and longer

B. humans will gain richer knowledge about genetics

C. humans' foreheads will become as large as their brains

D. humans will have the ability to control the solarsystem

8. Why will the future humans have bigger eyes?

A. To adapt to the lack of sunlight. B. To adapt to the change of climate.

C. To adjust to their larger foreheads. D. To adjust to their better appearance.

参考范文

Dear Nolan,

How is it going now? I am writing to share my initial travel plan in London, since summer holiday is approaching. Hoping you could give me some advice.

First destination is Greenwich, where I can see the longitude line. It is this line that divides the eastern and western halves of the world. Besides, I will pay a visit to Westminster Abbey, which contains statues in memory of many famous writers and poets. I will never miss some other scenic spots, such as London Tower. And I eagerly look forward to your suggestions.

Please drop me a line whenever it is convenient to you!

Yours,

Li Hua
