Eugene Newman Parker,a leading figure in helispheric(日球层的) physics fr the past half century,passed away peacefully at his hme in Chicag n was 94.
Hailed(誉为) as a visinary in the field f heliphysics,Parker revlutinized ur understanding f the sun and its effects n Earth and ther bdies within the slar system.NASA even stated that the field f heliphysics exists in large part because f Dr.Eugene Parker.In 2018,Parker became the first living scientist t witness the launch f a spacecraft that was named in his hnr.
Parker is best knwn fr his grundbreaking thery n the existence f a phenmenn called “slar wind”,a cntinuus stream f charged particles that flw ff the sun.It can becme vilent,causing space weather that impacts Earth.When Parker’s research was published in 1958,his thery was initially met with skepticism(怀疑) and ridicule by the scientific cmmunity.The general view at the time was that the space between planets was an abslute vacuum(真空),and was thus cmpletely empty f any matter.But,there were n errrs in his study r his calculatins,and the thery was later prven t be crrect in 1962,when a NASA spacecraft missin t Venus revealed the cnstant presence f a supersnic wind—exactly as Parker had predicted.
That experience likely led t the advice Parker ften gave yung researchers:“If yu d smething new r innvative,expect truble.But think critically abut it because if yu’re wrng,yu want t be the first ne t knw that.” Parker never c-authred a paper with his students,thus urging them t be independent.
Parker was humble,straightfrward,and wise.His sn Eric said,“My sister Jyce and I didn’t get a real feel fr what a ‘big dg’ ur dad was in the field.” They gt an even better sense when a mnth after Parker’s death,they traveled t Lund,Sweden,t accept n his behalf the Crafrd Prize in Astrnmy.

Technlgy is starting t give us superpwers nce reserved nly fr cmic bk heres like Spider-Man and Superman.We nw live in an age f human enhancement and related technlgy has captured the attentin f the media and investrs.
Sme f these new technlgies achieve their effects by means f electrnic devices that cnnect ur brains t external surces f knwledge,sensry data r physical pwer.We may nt get chips implanted in ur brains any time sn,but think abut Ggle Glass—wh needs an inserted chip when yu can wear a cmputer n yur head?
Wearable technlgy desn’t nly cme in the frm f a pair f glasses.A Japanese labratry is wrking n a mre practical prttype(雏形) f a muscle suit than Irn Man’s shiny armr(盔甲).The muscle suit,called an exskeletn,enables the sick and elderly t mve arund mre easily,New Scientist magazine reprted.Cveting(觊觎) the pwers f Spider-Man,the US military is wrking n a “Spider-Man suit” that nt nly lets wearers climb vertical walls,but als allws them t sense appraching bjects withut lking at r hearing them,accrding t an American military technlgy website.
But perhaps yu favr mre subtle pwers like mind cntrl r mind reading.This may ne day cme true as well.The mst amazing human enhancement technlgies that have cme int reality are devices that interact directly with the human brain.
Q Sensr,created by scientists at MIT,is a wireless sensr that measures electricity cnducted thrugh the skin.It can detect whether peple are bred,stressed r excited,and therefre has wide applicatins in research and therapy,the BBC reprted.
Scientists envisin neural implants that culd allw humans t manipulate real-wrld bjects with their mind—a pwer nt unlike mind cntrl.Slate magazine reprted this might already be happening.

Wearing a caveman mask,Dr.Marzluff walks acrss the camp at the university.Crws circle and scream.They dive at him and then suddenly fly away.
Beneath the mask,he smiles.Days befre,he and his students had 1 cavemen masks,caught crws and 2 plastic bands n t their legs.Then they released the 3 birds.
“We always knew crws 4 us,but culd we shw it?” says Dr.Marzluff,a prfessr knwn affectinately as the Crwman.
When the researchers walked arund campus withut masks,the crws they had caught and banded didn’t 5 t them.But when the 6 humans walked by while wearing the masks,the crws sclded ludly and dived at their “ 7 ”.The birds had remembered their 8 !

Unit 4 Meeting the muse
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了太阳物理学的领军人物尤金·纽曼·帕克的贡献以及他对年轻人的影响。
1.C 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Parker revlutinized ur understanding f the sun and its effects n Earth and ther bdies within the slar system.”以及“NASA even stated that the field f heliphysics exists in large part because f Dr.Eugene Parker.”可知,帕克对整个太阳物理学领域做出了极大的贡献,他是值得赞扬的。
2.A 细节理解题。根据第三段中“When Parker’s research was published in 1958,his thery was initially met with skepticism and ridicule by the scientific cmmunity.”以及“The general view at the time was that the space between planets was an abslute vacuum,and was thus cmpletely empty f any matter.”可知,人们起初对帕克的“太阳风”理论持怀疑态度,因为它违背了当时的流行观点。
3.C 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“That experience likely led t the advice Parker ften gave yung researchers:‘If yu d smething new r innvative,expect truble.But think critically abut it because if yu’re wrng,yu want t be the first ne t knw that.’”可知,帕克给年轻人的建议是从错误和尝试中学习。

7.C 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“We may nt get chips implanted in ur brains any time sn,but think abut Ggle Glass—wh needs an inserted chip when yu can wear a cmputer n yur head?”可知A项“Ggle Glass” 涉及可穿戴技术;再根据第三段可知B项“The muscle suit”以及D项“The Spider-Man suit” 涉及可穿戴技术。因此不涉及可穿戴技术的是C项。故选C项。
8.A 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段和最后一段以及全文内容可知,文章主要讲述了科学家们利用技术探索增强人类能力的超能力。故选A项。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了Marzluff博士和他的团队研究了乌鸦的大脑是如何工作的。他们将乌鸦的腿绑上塑料带子,然后放了乌鸦,同时对捆绑的乌鸦进行跟踪,发现乌鸦能认出他们的脸,同时发现成年乌鸦甚至会将这些信息传递给幼鸟。
1.B 由上文“Wearing a caveman mask”可知,此处指戴上面具。
2.D 由下文“the crws they had caught and banded”可知,在乌鸦的腿上绑上了塑料带子。
3.A 由上文“caught crws”可知,乌鸦被捕所以不开心。
4.C 由下文“the crws sclded ludly”和实验内容可知,研究人员戴上面具在乌鸦腿上绑上塑料带子,然后将它们放了,之后戴上面具后,发现乌鸦攻击他们,这说明乌鸦能认出他们。
5.B 由下文“t them”可知,此处指乌鸦没有任何反应。react t固定搭配,意为“对……作出反应”。
6.D 由下文“humans walked by while wearing the masks”和常识可知,为了保证实验的可信性,应是同一批人戴着面具走过。
7.A 由上文“the crws sclded ludly and dived at their”和上文提到的研究者捆绑乌鸦可知,乌鸦把他们当成敌人,在认出他们之后去攻击他们。
8.B 由下文“They lk,they think,and they eyeball yu”可知,乌鸦能记住敌人的脸。
9.C 由下文“They lk”可知,乌鸦一直在观察他们。
10.A 由上文“They lk,they think,and they eyeball yu”和下文“the situatin”可知,乌鸦观察他们是为了估计形势,去攻击他们。

12.C 由下文“pass this infrmatin”可知,乌鸦们从同伴那里得知一些信息。
13.B 由上文“Dr.Marzluff and his team fllwed banded crws fr a year”和下文“that adults even pass this infrmatin t their”可知,Marzluff博士和他的团队研究发现乌鸦甚至会将这些信息传递给幼鸟。
14.A 由上文“adults even pass this infrmatin t their”可知,成年乌鸦甚至会将这些信息传递给幼鸟。
15.D 由上文讲到的乌鸦能认出它们的敌人可知,Marzluff博士的实验让他研究了乌鸦的大脑是如何工作的。
Ⅲ. “I let it ut last night,” Jane said calmly.My muth drpped pen and was very angry.I was sure Meatball wuld die,since it was freezing utside.I grabbed my cat and rushed ut.Jane fllwed me,with fear welling up in her eyes.Several minutes later,we fund the pr thing under the car.It curled int a tiny ball and kept shaking.I picked it up and shuted at Jane,“We need t g t the animal hspital.Nw!”
As I drve t the animal hspital,Jane held Meatball inside her cat.I culd hear her talking t the cat,aplgizing repeatedly.Luckily,Meatball recvered sn.On the way back frm the hspital,Jane suddenly turned t me and aplgized fr the first time,“Mm,I knew that yu just wanted t keep me safe.I was happy t stay at hme.But I just wanted t stay ut a little lnger nce fr a while.Nw,I’m ready t bserve the curfew.Perhaps it’s gd fr me.”
