【題目】About five years ago, an American electrical engineer named Scott Brusaw and his wife Julie came up with the idea of putting solar panels (控制板) on the ground rather than the roof. Then they began to develop the Solar Roadway. The Solar Roadway is an intelligent road that provides clean renewable energy using power from the sun while providing safer driving conditions, along with power and data delivery. They predict that the Solar Roadway will pay for itself through the generation of electricity along with other forms of income and that the same money that is being used to build and resurface current roads can be used to build the Solar Roadways.

Each Solar Road Panel measures roughly 4 meters by 4 meters and contains a microprocessor (微處理器) that monitors and controls the panel, while communicating with neighboring panels and the vehicles traveling overhead. The inventors suggest that this provides a communications device every 4 meters on every road which could be used for example to warn drivers of cars which are moving across a centre line and various other speed control problems. The top of the Solar Road panels is made of super-strong glass that would offer vehicles the tractions (抓地力) they need.

According to the inventors, the Solar Roadway creates and carries clean renewable electricity and therefore electric vehicles can be recharged at any conveniently located rest stop, or at any business that has paved Solar Road Panels in their parking lots.

The inventors say their Solar Roadway has many functions and advantages from main roads to driveways, parking lots, bike paths, sidewalks and runways. The Federal Highway Administration has given Brusaw ＄100,000 to develop the invention and Brusaw hopes to build a smart-road parking lot in the coming spring .

【1】In the inventors’ opinion, the Solar Roadway ___________________________ .

A. is too expensive to build at present

B. costs no more money than current roads

C. can provide as many data as present computers

D. will bring them a large sum of money

【2】The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refers to .

A. the panels B. the inventors

C. the researchers D. the vehicles

【3】It can be inferred from the text that ____________________________.

A. the Solar Roadway has already been put into use

B. ＄100,000 is only enough to build a smart-road parking lot

C. the Solar Roadway is not available for gas-powered cars

D. future electric vehicles can be charged anytime and anywhere

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A. Solar-powered smart road of the future

B. The great changes on the roadway

C. The influence the Solar Roadway has on people

D. The Solar Road—a much faster road

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】C

【4】A

【解析】

試題解析：本文講述了在最新科技發(fā)明前沿的科技訊息，詞匯量大，長(zhǎng)難句多。

【1】B 考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)原文“They predict that the Solar Roadway will pay for itself through the generation of electricity along with other forms of income and that the same money that is being used to build and resurface current roads can be used to build the Solar Roadways.”可以看出，此項(xiàng)發(fā)明，并不用花額外的錢。故B項(xiàng)符合題意。

【2】D 考查推斷。句中的Them是一個(gè)代詞，主要指代的是上文提過的內(nèi)容，所以將這個(gè)詞放在整句中分析，“ The top of the Solar Road panels is made of super-strong glass that would offer vehicles the tractions (抓地力) they need.”句中的 the Solar Road panels 是由超強(qiáng)的玻璃制成的，它向交通車輛提供（車輛）所需的地抓力。

【3】C 本題考查推斷。根據(jù)原文中的“According to the inventors, the Solar Roadway creates and carries clean renewable electricity and therefore electric vehicles can be recharged at any conveniently located rest stop, or at any business that has paved Solar Road Panels in their parking lots.”可以推斷出C項(xiàng)。

【4】A 本題考查主旨大意。本文講述了 the Solar Roadway的發(fā)明，運(yùn)作原理 以及優(yōu)點(diǎn)，而沒有從宏觀的角度來將公路的變化，以及沒有講述它給人們帶來哪種現(xiàn)實(shí)影響。

【題目】 The loneliest chimp(黑猩猩)in the world just got the best surprise------a hug from a new friend．Ponso has been by himself for nearly three years，finding himself alone after his wife and children died on the island where they were abandoned by a medical testing company many years ago．

For years a nearby villager named Germain has been Ponso’s only company，visiting him so often to bring bananas and bread—the chimp’s only source of food on the tiny island．It was clear how much Ponso missed companionship when he was recently visited by Chimpanzee Conservation Centre Director Estelle Raballand．The chimp immediately embraced Estelle Raballand in a huge hug and laughed as she reached out for him，with his smile from ear to ear．

For those who know Ponso’s backstory，his immediate ease and trust in humans might be surprising．Ponso was one of 20 chimps，all between the ages of 7 to 11 years old，relocated to an island off the Ivory Coast after being used for testing by the New York Blood Centre．After the tests were completed in 2005，the lab reportedly transferred the chimps to a string of islands，occasionally dropping off food and water because there was none in the chimps’ new homes．

Disease and hunger soon left only Ponso，his mate and their two children standing．But at the end of 2013 they died within days of each other and Ponso was now completely alone．

A group called SOS PONSO is trying to raise money for the poor lonely chimp，already achieving its goal of $20,000 - all of which will be used for Ponso’s care．

【1】What do we know about the chimp Ponso?

A．He was deserted by his family．

B．He found many sources of food．

C．He came to the island for a test．

D．He suffers from loneliness greatly．

【2】How did Ponso feel about the visit of Estelle Raballand?

A．Excited． B．Frightened．

C．Embarrassed． D．Confused.

【3】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A．The chimps’ new settlement．

B．How Ponso came to the island．

C．Why Ponso was used for a test．

D．The medical test about chimps．

【4】What can be inferred from the text?

A．Germain won’t visit Ponso any more．

B．A new lab will be built on the island．

C．Many people show concern for Ponso．

D．More chimps will be brought to the island．

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng).選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng).How do actors and actresses memorize hundreds of lines? Memorizing lines takes practice and constant repetition. However, there are a few ways to make the memorization process run smoothly and quickly. 【1】For most performers, there is no quicker way of memorizing lines. To learn lines, an actor must recite the play loud over and over again. Most rehearsals(彩排) encourage this by running through the lines or having a ＂read through＂. By the time opening night arrives, most actors have spoken their lines hundreds of times.Listen to your cast members.Sometimes inexperienced actors spend rehearsals looking at fellow performers, waiting patiently to say their next line. 【2】 This will help the actor learn his lines better because the context of the dialogue is absorbed. 【3】Because there is often not enough rehearsal time, many performers find ways to listen to the play’s dialogue during everyday activities. They use a tape recorder or an MP3 player to listen to the lines from each relevant scene. Some actors prefer to record the lines of all the characters, including their own. 【4】 Others like recording the lines of fellow cast members, and they leave a blank space so that they can insert their dialogue while listening to the recording.Think positively and don’t panic.Most actors will experience stage fright before the opening night. Actors forget lines now and then. When it happens, however, most of the time the audience never notice. If you forget a line in the middle of your performance, don’t freeze. Stay in character. Keep the scene going to the best of your ability. If unfortunately you forget a line once, you will probably never forget that line ever again. 【5】

A. Record your lines.

B. Practice makes perfect.

C. Read lines loud and repeat them.

D. Read lines loud and remember them in a short time.

E. Sometimes embarrassment is the toughest method of memorization.

F. Then, they not only listen carefully, but they also speak all of the lines.

G. Instead, they should be listening carefully, responding in character at all times.

Dear Jeremy and Alice,

Although we’ve been delighted to have you as neighbors, we’re hoping to settle something that bothers to us. In a word, your dog --- Cleo.

We’ve called several time about Cleo’s early morning barking. It is difficult to understanding why she barks every minute she’s outside. The early morning barking have been disturbing as we are often up all night with the baby. Beside, Cleo tends to bark a average of six hours a day. This morning she starts barking even before 5 o’clock. That is too much for us, considering how closely our houses are.

We appreciate our apologies and goodwill, but we hope that you can figure a good way of settling the matter.

Sincerely,
