【題目】 WHAT are scientists? They are often described as gray-haired white-coated dull scholars.

But the world has changed. Young scientists are making their voices heard and releasing their powers on the world stage.

This is also true in China. Rising stars include new materials expert Gong Yongji, university professor Liu Mingzhen, and biologist Wang Ruixue. At the age of 28 in 2018, Wan Ruixue received the 2018 Science & SciLifeLab Prize for Young Scientists. This is a global prize to reward outstanding scientists at an early stage of their careers.

She focuses mainly on biomedicine(生物醫(yī)學(xué))and artificial intelligence(人工智能). "Both are cutting-edge(前沿)technologies at an early stage of development," she said.

"So, I think they have great potential to be developed. I think in the study of cutting-edge technologies, China and other leading countries in the world are standing on the same starting line. And in the study of structural biology, China is likely to become the leader."

She felt it was her fate to become a biologist. "I grew interested in the natural world, when I was very young," she said. In 2009, she entered Sun Yat-sen University.

In her third year at the university, she realized that she wanted to do something related to biomedicine. So she emailed China's top biologist Shi Yigong, hoping to join his lab at Tsinghua University.

Shi recognized her talent and welcomed her. Years of efforts at the lab have paid off. Her research on the high-definition 3D structure of spliceosome led to a scientific breakthrough.

Unlike-many of other young scientists who choose to pursue further study abroad, Wan currently has no plan to go overseas.

"The whole ecosystem for scientific research is continually improving in China," she said, adding the country has great science facilities.

【1】What does the underlined word "releasing" in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Giving out.B.Getting over.

C.Finding out.D.Taking over.

【2】What does Wan Ruixue feel about the study of cutting-edge technologies in China?

A.Anxious.B.Confident.

C.Disappointed.D.Satisfied.

【3】What can we learn about Wang Ruixue's journey of becoming a biologist?

A.Her teacher led her into the field.B.She finds it's easier than she thought.

C.Her contribution has been recognized.D.She thinks it's boring but worth trying.

【4】Which can be the best title of the text?

A.China's Breakthrough in ScienceB.Rising Young Scientists in China

C.Wan Ruixue: A Successful Young ScientistD.New Image of Chinese Scientists

【答案】

【1】A

【2】B

【3】C

【4】B

【解析】

這是一篇新聞報(bào)道。年輕的科學(xué)家們正在改變世界舞臺(tái)上發(fā)聲，并釋放他們的力量。在中國(guó)也一樣，越來(lái)越多的年輕科學(xué)家投身科學(xué)研究，對(duì)社會(huì)做出了巨大的貢獻(xiàn)。他們對(duì)中國(guó)的科學(xué)技術(shù)和科學(xué)研究充滿自信。

【1】詞義猜測(cè)題。由第二段Young scientists are making their voices heard and releasing their powers on the world stage.可知在世界舞臺(tái)上，年輕的科學(xué)家們正在發(fā)出他們的聲音，釋放他們的能量。從句子中可以看到making their voices heard和releasing their powers并列，可以根據(jù)making their voices heard（發(fā)出自己的聲音）猜測(cè)出releasing有“發(fā)出，散發(fā)”之意，故選A。

【2】推理判斷題。由第五段I think in the study of cutting-edge technologies, China and other leading countries in the world are standing on the same starting line. And in the study of structural biology, China is likely to become the leader."可知我認(rèn)為在前沿技術(shù)研究方面，中國(guó)和其他主要國(guó)家都在起跑線上。在結(jié)構(gòu)生物學(xué)研究方面，中國(guó)可能成為引領(lǐng)者。從這些話可以判讀出，對(duì)中國(guó)前沿技術(shù)的研究，王瑞雪充滿信心。故選B。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第三段Shi recognized her talent and welcomed her. Years of efforts at the lab have paid off.可知史認(rèn)可了她的才能，歡迎她加入。在實(shí)驗(yàn)室數(shù)年的努力得到了回報(bào)。由此可以看出王瑞雪成才為生物學(xué)家的過(guò)程中，她的付出得到了認(rèn)可。故選C。

【4】主旨大意題。由第二段Young scientists are making their voices heard and releasing their powers on the world stage.可知在世界舞臺(tái)上，年輕的科學(xué)家們正在發(fā)出他們的聲音，釋放他們的能量。由第三段This is also true in China. Rising stars include new materials expert Gong Yongji, university professor Liu Mingzhen, and biologist Wang Ruixue.可知在中國(guó)也一樣。冉冉升起的新星包括新型材料專家龔永吉，大學(xué)教授劉明偵和生物學(xué)家王瑞雪。從上述內(nèi)容可以看出關(guān)鍵詞是China，Rising stars和Young scientists。所以文章標(biāo)題是中國(guó)新星的年輕科學(xué)家。故選B。

做主旨大意的題時(shí)，一定要找對(duì)關(guān)鍵詞。不能以偏概全。比如第四小題，要找對(duì)關(guān)鍵詞年輕科學(xué)家(Young scientists)、中國(guó)(China)，和新星(Rising stars)，還要知道是他們之間的聯(lián)系，即在中國(guó)冉冉升起的年輕科學(xué)家，所以答案選B。

【題目】Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

In the green hills of northern Thailand, a woman painstakingly picks coffee beans out of a pile of elephant dung (糞便). They are preparing for the ingredient of one of the world’s most expensive drinks.

This remote comer of Thailand is better known for drug smuggling (毒品走私) than coffee, but Black Dinkin decided it was a perfect place for him to combine wildlife conservation with business. 【1】 The company uses elephant dung to create a wonderful coffee.

Initially, Dinkin considered using a kind of cats to make coffee, but he found the cats were usually kept in cages and force-fed beans. 【2】 Eventually, Dinkin settled on elephants after discovering that the animals sometimes eat coffee. He also teamed up with an elephant rescue charity which saves the animals from the tourist trade.

【3】 “I thought it would be as simple as taking the beans, giving them to the elephants and out will come great coffee,” said Dinkin, adding that the initial result was “horrible”. It took him another nine years to actually succeed in doing what he wanted.

According to Dinkin, the enzymes (酶) in the elephant, stomachs function as a kind of slow cooker and the stomach acid takes the bitterness out of the beans. The elephant riders’ wives collect the coffee beans from the dung before washing and drying them in the sun.

The rewards, however, are worth all the work. At around $1, 880 per kilogram, the coffee doesn’t come cheap. 【4】This helps its sales a lot.

A.The 4-year-old Canadian founded Black Ivory Coffee.

B.The local elephant riders considered the project a crazy idea.

C.Its unique taste and special processing cycle give the product a romantic appeal.

D.Making coffee from elephant dung, however, turned out to be harder than expected.

E.To make a kilogram of coffee, the elephants have to cat about 33 kilos of the beans.

F.This is against the businessman’s desire to support rather than damage the environment.

【題目】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own -words as far as possible.

China accounts for almost 22 percent of the world’s population and is one of the world’s largest and most rapidly growing economies. However, it has only 10 percent of the world’s total cultivated area and is having increasing difficulties in securing water for agricultural purposes.

Despite population growing at an average rate of around one percent a year and its economy at around 9 percent a year since the early 1990s，China has so far maintained approximate self- sufficiency in agricultural products overall, in the sense that exports have been approximately matching imports. In fact, China has been the world’s fourth largest importer after the European Union, the United States and Japan.

The ability of China's agriculture to keep pace with growing demand reflects a few key factors. Yield improvements have been achieved through more intensive use of inputs such as fertilizers, agricultural machinery and irrigation, and the introduction of advanced technologies in agricultural production.

The Chinese government has had a policy of agricultural self-sufficiency. However, China's membership of the World Trade Organization (WTO) since 2001 could signal a greater preparedness to accept imports and embrace opportunities provided by export markets. Importantly, however, more than three decades of reforms have permitted the market to have a greater influence on what farmers are producing and selling. Reflecting these factors，China has been gradually shifting its agricultural production away from land intensive products，such as cereals, toward higher value, labor intensive products such as meat, fruit, vegetables, eggs, milk, fish and seafood. That is, China is producing more in line with its comparative advantage.
