26、nce the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Braincomputer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne,
27、Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a persons thoughts.In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.“Our brain has billions of ne
28、rve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external w
29、orld and also to control devices.”The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify o
30、bjects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled peopl
31、e can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the techn
32、ology over long periods of time.56BCI is a technology that can _.A. help to update computer systemsB. link the human brain with computersC. help the disabled to recoverD. control a persons thoughts57How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?A. By controlling his muscles.B. By talking
33、to the machine.C. By moving his hand.D. By using his mind.58Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?A. scalpcomputercapwheelchairB. computercapscalpwheelchairC. scalpcapcomputerwheelchairD. capcomputerscalpwheelchair59The team will test with real patients to _.A
34、. make profits from themB. prove the technology useful to themC. make them live longerD. learn about their physical condition60Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Switzerland, the BCI Research CenterB. New Findings About How the Human Brain WorksC. BCI Could Mean More Free
35、dom for the DisabledD. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain InjuriesBRunning like the wind, roaring (咆哮) like thunder, tigers have long been feared and respected as a king of the animal world. But last week a report said that there are no more than 30 wild tigers left in south China.This was th
36、e conclusion of a team of scientists from Chinas State Forestry Administration and the World Nature Fund.The South China tiger, also known as the Chinese tiger, is native to southern China. In the 1950s, there were over 4000 tigers found in mountain forests in the country. But due to the destruction
37、 of their natural habitat and uncontrolled hunting, it has been pushed on to the list of the worlds top ten most endangered species.Sixtysix of the big cats can be found in the cages of a dozen zoos around China. But they are nothing like their wild cousins. They have lost their natural skills such
38、as hunting and killing. If they were set free they could not look after themselves. “Breeding has damaged the quality of the species”, said Pei Enle, deputy director of the Shanghai Zoo.To reintroduce the species into the wild, the country started a programme to send five to ten young tigers to Sout
39、h Africa. Four of them have already arrived. Progress has been made as two elder tigers have recovered some of their instincts(本能) and can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base.“South Africans are very experienced in reintroducing big animals to the wild. The country has very good natu
40、ral conditions for the tigers to learn in”, said Lu Jun, office director of the National Wildlife Research and Development Center. “We tried in Fujian Province, but it was not successful as there was not a complete ecochain(生物链) and there was a lack of space.”The tigers should return to China in 200
41、7 when the reservations in Fujian are ready.61What is the main reason for the South China tiger becoming one of the worlds top ten most endangered species?A. Because it has lost its natural instincts.B. Because there is not a complete ecochain.C. Because there is no space for it.D .Because uncontrol
42、led hunting has destroyed its natural living conditions.62How is the programme of sending several tigers to South Africa getting on?A. Its effect still remains to be seen.B. Two tigers can already compete with their wild cousins.C. Some of the tigers are already on the road to recovering their natur
43、al skills.D. The tigers should be able to recover their instincts completely by 2007.63By saying “but they are nothing like their wild cousins”, the writer means that_.A. they are no longer feared by other wild animalsB. they dont know how to hunt or killC. a complete change has resulted in the spec
44、ies because of breedingD. to reintroduce them into the wild has become an urgent task64What is the purpose of sending young tigers to South Africa?A. To help the tigers recover their ability to live in the wild.B. To provide them with a better environment.C. To get the tigers to go on a tour.D. To f
45、ind a complete ecochain for them.65Which one is NOT the reason for South Africa being chosen as the training place?A. Because the tigers can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base.B. Because South Africans are skilled at dealing with the tigers.C. Because there is a complete ecochain an
46、d enough space there.D. Because the country has good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in. CElizabeth Freeman was born about 1742 to African American parents who were slaves. At the age of six months she was acquired, along with her sister, by John Ashley, a wealthy Massachusetts slaveholde
47、rs. She became known as “Mumbet” or “Mum Bett.” For nearly 30 years Mumbet served the Ashley family. One day, Ashleys wife tried to strike Mumbets sister with a spade. Mumbet protected her sister and took the blow instead. Furious, she left the house and refused to come back. When the Ashleys tried
48、to make her return, Mumbet consulted a lawyer, Theodore Sedgewick. With his help, Mumbet sued(起诉) for her freedom. While serving the Ashleys, Mumbet had listened to many discussions of the new Massachusetts constitution. If the constitution said that all people were free and equal, then she thought
49、it should apply to her. Eventually, Mumbet won her freedom- the first slave in Massachusetts to do so under the new constitution. Strangely enough, after the trial, the Ashleys asked Mumbet to come back and work for them as a paid employee. She declined and instead went to work for Segdewick. Mumbet
50、 died in 1829, but her legacy lived on in her many descendants(后裔). One of her great-grandchildren was W.E.B. Du Bois, one of the founder of the NAACP, and an important writer and spokesperson for African American civil rights. Mumbets tombstone still stands in the Massachusetts cemetery where she w
51、as buried. It reads, in part: “She was born a slave and remained a slave and remained a slave for nearly thirty years. She could neither read nor write, yet in her own sphere she had no superior or equal.” 66. What do we know about Mumbet according to Paragraph 1? A. She was born a slave B. She was
52、a slaveholder C. She had a famous sister D. She was born into a rich family 67. Why did Mumbet run away from the Ashleys? A. She found an employer B. She wanted to be a lawyer C. She was hit and got angry D. She had to take care of her sister 68. What did Mumbet learn from discussions about the new
53、consititution? A. She should always obey her owners orders B. She should be as free and equal as whites C. How to be a good servant D. How to apply for a job 69. What did Mumbet do after the trial? A. She chose to work for a lawyer B. She found the NAACP C. She continued to serve the Ashleys D. She
54、went to live with her grandchildren DHow fit are your teeth? Are you lazy about brushing them? Never fear: An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush, and it lets you track your performance on your phone. The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the Int
55、ernational Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection. The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right (dont forget the insides of the teeth!) and make sure youre b
56、rushing long enough. “Its kind of like having a dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis,” says Thomas Serval, the French inventor. The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toot
57、hbrush. You could score points for beating monsters among your teeth. “We try to make it smart but also fun,” Several says. Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said “yes,” but Serval would find
58、 their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush that really told him how well his children brushed. The company says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer, for $99 to $199, developing on features. The U.S. is the first target market. Serval says that one day, itll be possible to replace
59、 the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.70. Which is one of the feature of the Kolibree toothbrush?A. It can sense how users brush their teeth. B. It can track usersschool performance.C. It can detect users
60、fear of seeing a dentist. D. It can help users find their phones.71. What can we learn from Servals words in Paragraph 3?A. You will find it enjoyable to see a dentist.B. You should see your dentist on a day-to day basis.C. You can brush with the Kolibree as if guided by a dentist.D. Youd like a den
61、tist to watch you brush your teeth every day.72. Which of the following might make the Kolibree toothbrush fun?A. It can be used to update mobile phones. B. It can be used to play mobile phone gamesC. It can send messages to other users D. It can talk to its developers.73. What is Paragraph 5 mainly
62、 about?A. How Serval found out his kids lied to him.B. Why Serval thought brushing teeth was necessary.C. How Serval taught his kids to brush their teeth.D. What inspired Serval to invent the toothbrush74. What can we infer about Servals children?A. They were unwilling to brush their teethB. They of
63、ten failed to clean their toothbrushes.C. They preferred to use a toothbrush with a dry head.D. They liked brushing their teeth after Serval came home.75. What can we learn about the future development of the Kolibree?A. The brush handle will be removed. B. A mobile phone will be built into it.C. It
64、 will be used to fill holes in teeth D. It will be able to check users teeth第II卷(非选择题,满分35分)第四部分 写作第一节 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)1Oops! In your rush to get to school, you drop a piece of toast on the floor. Do you throw it away or decide its still OK to eat? If youre like most people, you eat it. Maybe
65、you follow the “5-second rule”, which claims foods are safe to eat,if you pick them up within 5 seconds of dropping them. But you might want to think again. Scientists now say that 5 seconds are all it takes for foods to become contaminated(感染) with enough bacteria to make you sick. 2Bacteria can ca
66、use many kinds of illnesses. Some kinds of bacteria can grow on food. If we eat foods on which these bacteria are growing, we can become sick. One of these food-borne bacteria is Salmonella. It makes 1.4 million people sick every year. Earlier this year, 370 people became sick after eating peanut bu
67、tter that had been contaminated with Salmonella at the manufacturing factory. Salmonella are often found in raw eggs and chicken. Cooking kills these bacteria, which is why it is so important to cook eggs, chicken, and other foods carefully.3Being a good housekeeper is another good way to prevent in
68、fection. If household surfaces arent washed thoroughly, they can support Salmonella for weeks. A team of scientists at Clemson University in South Carolina have tested the 5-second rule, using sandwich ingredients. First, they placed a known amount of Salmonella cells on three surfaces: wood, tile,
69、and carpet. They then placed a slice of bread and a slice of bologna(博洛尼亚大红肠) on each surface for 5, 30, or 60 seconds. After just 5 seconds, both the bread and bologna picked up enough bacteria to make you sick. 4So forget the 5-second rule. If your toast lands on the floor, throw it away. Stick a
70、fresh slice of bread in the toaster. And this time, be careful not to drop it! 76. What is the “5-second rule” mentioned in the first paragraph? (no more than 18 words)77. Why is it important for us to cook food carefully?(no more than 5 words)78. What advice is given to prevent infection in the las
71、t but one paragraph? (no more than 10 words)79. Why did the scientists at Clemson University carry out that test? (no more than 15 words.) 80.

79、 choice should be based on their own interest. They say interest in the mother of success. It is a miserable thing to have to spend most of your time studying what you have no interest in.More students(around 45%), however, insist that consideration should be given to the needs of the society, for they argue, not everyone can find the job they like best. Besides, interest can be born and lost.Interestingly, there are about 25% who find it too difficult a choice to make and would rather depend on their parents or teachers to make a decision for them.
