17、n in two ways BMrs. Obama spoke to the graduates of Martin Luther King Jr. High School on Saturday in her only high school commencement (毕业典礼) speech this year. The ceremony took place in the gymnasium of Tennessee State University.The first lady told the 170 graduates that she spent too much of her
18、 time in college focusing on academic achievements. While her success in college and law school led to a highprofile job, she said, she ended up leaving to focus on public service. “My message to you today is that dont waste a minute living someone elses dream,” she said. “It takes lots of real work
19、 to discover what brings you joy and you wont find what you love simply by checking mailboxes or surfing the Internet.”She said MLK reminded her of her own high school experience in Chicago.“My No.1 goal was to go to a high school that would push me and challenge me,” she said. “I wanted to go somew
20、here that would celebrate achievements.” “Unfortunately, schools like this dont exist for every kid,” she said. “You are blessed.”The first lady told the graduates that failure may be a part of their college careers, and that how they respond to difficulties determines what they will become. “Thats
21、when you find out what youre really made of in those hard times,” she said. “But you can only do that if youre willing to put yourself in a position where you might fail. Overcoming difficulties has been a mark of many great people,” she said. “Oprah Winfrey was demoted(降职) from her first job as a n
22、ews reporter, and now she doesnt even need a last name,” she said of media giant Oprah Winfrey. “And then theres this guy Barack Obama. I could take up a whole afternoon talking about his failures. He lost his first race for Congress,” the first lady joked, “and now he gets to call himself my husban

25、ssee State University.B. This is the first time she has given a speech to graduates.C. She complained about her school life in her speech.D. She is enthusiastic about public service.CHandwriting is quickly becoming a dying art. Few businesses can run nowadays without computers, giving keyboard short
26、cuts an unprecedented importance. Elementary and high schools across the country now view typing courses as essential to their curricula(课程). But what are we losing as handwriting loses its significance in society?Brain power, according to science. Researchers from Princeton University and the Unive
27、rsity of California, Los Angeles conducted a series of studies to demonstrate the differences between students who wrote out their notes and those who typed notes. Participants took notes on a lecture using one of the two methods and were tested on the material 30 minutes after the lecture and again
28、 a week later. The results showed that both types of notetakers did well on the first test, though keyboard notetakers had a stronger grasp of the overall concept, but students with handwritten notes were able to remember and still understand the concepts of the lecture after a week had passed. Thes
29、e participants were also more open to understanding new ideas.At the University of Nebraska, educational psychologist Kenneth Kiewra held a similar study, where some students were tested immediately following a PowerPoint lecture and others had a chance to review their notes before being tested. Tho
30、se who took notes on a laptop had a slight advantage on the test right after the lecture, but students with written notes performed significantly better when given the chance to review. Kiewra told the Wall Street Journal that the reason is likely because written notes are briefer, more organized, a
31、nd better captured information from graphs and charts than typed notes.Computers arent going away anytime soon, but that doesnt mean paper notebooks need to become obsolete(过时). In fact, its best to start using them at an early age. University of Indiana researchers compared brain scans of five year
32、 olds, some of whom practiced printing letters and some who just looked at the letters. Those who wrote out the letters had more enhanced and “adult-like” neural activity.Take this as a parenting hack for the digital era: Dont let your kids go completely digital.29. It can be inferred from the secon
33、d paragraph that _.A. Its easy for both types of notetakers to welcome new ideas.B. Students who wrote notes out could only remember the lecture in a week.C. Students who typed notes could have a better understanding of the material. D. Neither types of notetakers did well on the test 30 minutes aft
34、er the lecture.30. Why students with written notes performed much better when given the chance to review according to Kiewar?A. Because the written notes are much more convenient and accessible.B. Because they have a higher level of intelligence than those with typed notes.C. Because they are born a
35、dapting themselves to new ideas easily.D. Because the typed notes are always without any references.31. The passage mainly provides suggestions for _.A. students B. parents C. schools D. enterprisesDScientists announced that they had found the gravitational waves(引力波)that confirmed a prediction made
36、 by Albert Einstein a century ago.The discovery,made with the Laser Interferometer GravitationalWave Observatory, known as LIGO,is the milestone(里程碑)in a decadeslong search for signs of this phenomenon.The discovery will open a new window onto the universe,said David Reitze,executive director of LIG
37、O.Since humans first watched skyward,we have relied on light of all wavelengths to describe the universe.The light that could be seen first showed the starry heavens,while infrared(红外线的)waves allowed us to see older and more distant stars.But now,researchers will be able to sense the universe in a w
38、hole new way: with their ears.We can hear gravitational waves.We can hear the universe,Gabriela Gonzalez,LIGOs spokeswoman at Louisiana State University,said.Thats one of the beautiful things about this: We are not only going to be seeing the universe,we are going to be listening to it.Gravitational
39、 waves,which Einstein predicted as part of his general theory of relativity,occur as objects accelerate or decelerate through space,much the way a boat moving on a lake sends waves across the waters surface. But theyre so tiny that until now its been nearly impossible to find them,even those caused
40、by something as large as a planet moving around the sun.To pick up this signal,scientists have to look for violent events in the universe.This particular signal appears to have been caused by a collision.That occurred about 1.3 billion years ago between two black holes,holding 29 and 36 solar masses
41、(太阳质量).Fiona Harrison,chair of Calteshs division of physics,mathematics and astronomy,guessed that hundreds of new events would be found over the next few years,allowing scientists to perform a range of different types of studies. There are probably many events we havent dreamed of and this is just
42、the beginning,she said.32. Why did Gabriela Gonzalez think LIGOs discovery important?A. It confirmed Einsteins scientific discovery.B. It allowed scientists to see more distant stars.C. It changed traditional ideas about the universe.D. It offered a different way to study the universe.33. Its hard t
43、o find gravitational waves because they .A. are too far to be felt B. are disturbed by other planetsC. are too weak to be observed D. disappear soon after they happen34. What does the underlined word “collision” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. crash B. receiving C. circle D.movementC. A collision between bla
44、ck holes. D. A planet moving around the sun.35. It can be concluded that .A. gravitational waves also exist in objects at restB. theres a long way to go in studying the universe.C. gravitational waves show the beginning of the universe.D. scientists began studying universe in recent years.第二节 (共5小题;
