As Lenard da Vinci’s interests were varied,his research cvered a great range,including varius aspects f applied mechanics(应用力学).Therefre,sme f his bigraphers think such a man,having great artistic genius,wuld “waste” precius years f his life n such a “lwly” pursuit as engineering.
T appreciate Lenard’s cntributin t technlgy,ne need nly examine his analysis f the main prblem f technlgy.In Lenard’s time,the main burden f human industry still relied n the muscles f humans and animals.But little attentin was given t analyzing this primitive muscle pwer s that it culd be used mst effectively fr the required tasks.Against this backgrund,Lenard’s apprach t wrk was revlutinary.When he searched fr the mst efficient ways f using human muscle pwer,the frce f every leg and arm was analyzed and measured.
Cnsider Lenard’s painstaking apprach t the cnstructin f canals.After analysis f cnstructing a particular canal by hand,he cncluded that the nly reasnable slutin was t mechanize the whle peratin.Then he cnsidered and finally abandned numerus plans in the curse f the cnstructin.
Having systematically rejected several slutins in this way,Lenard began t cnsider using a system f cranes (吊车).Pwer was again his main cncern.T activate a crane,the nly transprtable mtr available at the time wuld have been a treadmill(踏车).This is nt t suggest that Lenard invented the treadmill.Hwever,it was Lenard wh first used the principle f the treadmill reasnably and in accrdance with engineering principles.
Because Lenard’s insights were smetimes s far beynd the standards f his time,their imprtance t the develpment f mdern engineering is ften undervalued.Many schlars,in fact,still refused t cncede that Lenard was ne f ur earliest and mst significant engineers.
1.Why des the authr cnsider Lenard’s apprach t wrk “revlutinary” in Paragraph 2?
A.Because he attempted t replace humans and animals with machines.
B.Because he adapted traditinal slutins t previusly impssible tasks.
C.Because he studied muscle pwer in a way that n ne had used befre.
D.Because he mved the main burden f industry frm human t animal pwer.
2.Which f the fllwing can best describe Lenard?
A.Cautius but anxius.B.Cnsiderate but painful.
C.Cperative and efficient.D.Determined and creative.
3.What des the underlined wrd “cncede” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Admit.B.Prve.C.Explain.D.Revalue.
语篇解读:本文是议论文。列奥纳多·达·芬奇在工程技术方面的贡献很大,但是很多学者却对此拒不承认。
答案及剖析:
1.C 推理判断题。根据第二段中的But little attentin was given t analyzing this primitive muscle pwer s that it culd be used mst effectively fr the required tasks及When he searched fr the mst efficient ways f using human muscle pwer,the frce f every leg and arm was analyzed and measured可知,列奥纳多以前所未有的方式研究了肌肉力量,因此作者说他的方法“具有革命性”。
2.D 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,建造运河的过程很辛苦,列奥纳多不断推翻方案,但仍然意志坚定、不言放弃;根据第四段内容可知,列奥纳多创造性地运用踏车使吊车运行。故D项正确。
3.A 词义猜测题。根据最后一段内容可知,由于时代的局限性,人们往往低估列奥纳多的见识。实际上,很多学者仍然拒绝“承认”列奥纳多是我们最早、最重要的工程师之一。

语篇解读:父亲在我们的成长过程中起着重要的作用,他给我们提供了榜样的力量。
答案及剖析:
1.C 这里作者是在回忆在成长过程中,父亲给他们的教育,因此选择grwing。
2.B 从文章开头“my sister and I”可知选择schlbys不对,根据语境可知此处选择kids最妥当。
3.B 从上一句“Dad has been a persn f few wrds since...”可知,父亲是一个寡言少语的人,他对我们的教育都是通过“身教”,即给我们做榜样。
4.D 从上文的“he was always mysterius and difficult t understand”可知父亲讲的话有隐含意义,因此选择hidden。
5.D 根据句中的but可知“我”不懂,但是Liz总是能够弄懂他的意思。manage t read it弄懂他讲的话的含义。
6.C 根据上下文,作者认为自己已经长大了不好再向父母要钱。figure以为,认为。
7.B 根据空格前的 I came hme quite ut f breath可知,父亲询问出了什么事。
8.A 由于作者对自己刚刚从事的兼职工作不满意,于是父亲开导作者说每个人都要从某个地方起步,从事某一项工作,可能现在还不知道是什么工作,不过工作中所获得的技能在日后的生活中也可能派上用场。
9.A 根据上文的a burger jint(一家汉堡快餐店)可知父亲认为“我”日后也许会经营一家餐馆。
10.A 经过父亲的开导,作者气愤的情绪渐渐平静了下来并且记住了父亲的那一番话,尽管他当时并不赞同他的观点。calm sb.dwn表示让处于某种强烈情绪之中的人平静下来,符合题意。
11.C 根据下面的“we were shrt n kitchen staff”可知那一天餐馆里很忙。
12.D 顾客有些不耐烦了,根据下文的“We caught up with the rders”可知选择rders,表示顾客点的菜也在被推迟。
13.A 店里的员工都担心糟糕的事情会爆发。break ut指不好的事情的突然爆发,符合
语境。
14.D 根据上下文可知,作者无法忍受那种紧张的气氛,因此选择tensin。
15.A 经过作者的出手相助,他们终于赶上了客人们的订菜单的速度。eventually最终,符合题意。
16.D clsing time在英语中是固定短语,意思是“(餐馆或酒馆)晚上打烊的时间”。
17.D 根据上句可知作者帮厨的事被老板看到了,因此他说作者给他留下了很深的印象,意思是作者做得好,这一点从下一句老板给他加工资可以得到验证。
18.A 从文中可知that指代上文提到的帮厨得到加薪的事,这时候作者才意识到父亲的话是完全正确的。
19.D 与small词义相近的应该是insignificant,表示无论事情看起来是多么的小或不重要,做好了,学到的技能都可能对今后的生活有所帮助。
20.B 根据上文可知学到的经验对今后的生活很重要。cunt重要。
