9、tes.B We do not usually think about how our language works. Talking is such a natural, everyday activity that we do not often stop to consider how it actually works. When we do study our language, though, we are often surprised that we are able to understand our conversations. Words can mean so many
10、 different things. However, it turns out that the speaking situation helps a lot in making language work. First, the speaking situation helps make words more particular. For example, the word “dog” can describe a dog that a speaker saw in a dream. It can also be used to discuss a neighbors dog. No l
11、anguage has a separate word for the idea “dog that I saw yesterday” and another word for the idea “dog that I saw in a dream.” This is because the speaking situation makes it clear what speakers mean when they use words. So, when you have a conversation with your neighbor, the knowledge that you hav
12、e a dog tells your neighbor what the word “dog” probably means in that situation. The speaking situation also helps make language clearer. For example, the word “bank” has two possible meanings. It can mean “a place where people keep money,” but it can also mean “the side of a river.” So the sentenc
13、e “I went to the bank” is not clear. It could mean I went to the side of the river or it could mean I went to the place where my money is kept. However, if the speaker is talking about fishing or going to the mountains, others probably know that “bank” means “the side of a river.”The things that spe
14、akers say may not always be clear. Sometimes the words are not very particular, but the speaking situation can provide the meaning. Other times words may have many meanings. Then the speaking situation limits the right meaning. This extra knowledge from the situation is very important to understand
15、language.24. The passage is mainly about _.A. the best time and place to talk to others B. how speaking situation helps language work C. what to say in different situationsD. how our language works25. According to the passage, we can safely say that _.A. a speaking situation does not affect the mean
16、ing of wordsB. speaking is not very natural for most people C. a speaking situation is not important D. people often do not consider how talking works 26. By using the example of the word “dog”, the writer wants to show that _.A. a word may need to be explained in a conversationB. a word may have di
17、fferent meaningsC. speaking situation helps people understand the particular meaning of a wordD. the meaning of words is not particular27. According to the passage, we can know the meaning of the word “bank” by referring to _.A. the time and the place where the conversation happensB. the occupation
18、of the person who uses the wordC. earlier or later parts of the conversationD. a reliable dictionaryC A new genre (流派) of fiction has come out of rising sea levels. Climate fiction, or “cli-fi”, is a sub-genre of science fiction. It imagines a future where man struggles against the extremes of a cha
19、nging environment. Although it is still an unexplored field in the Chinese literary circle, climate change literature is now a regular course in universities in the US, the UK and India, etc. A brief search of “climate fiction” returns more than 1,800 results, reflecting a growing demand for books t
20、hat focus on environmental issues. According to The Atlantic, cli-fi stories seldom talk about “unreal technologies or faraway planets”, unlike traditional sci-fi. Cli-fi is a lot more down to earth. It examines the effects of pollution, rising sea levels, and global warming on human civilization. C
21、li-fi has been made more attractive to younger generations thanks to its appearance in movies and TV shows, Interstellar, Snowpiercer, MaddAddam, just to name a few. The term “cli-fi”, created by US writer and climate activist Dan Bloom, seems to be helping “raise the awareness of global warming”. U
22、K cli-fi writer Sarah Holding wrote that the genre “connects young readers with their environment”. But not everyone is convinced of cli-fis potential. George Marshall, founder of Climate Outreach Information Network, expressed concern that cli-fi would strengthen what people already believe rather
23、than change anyones mind. “The unconvinced will see these stories as proof that this issue is a fiction,” he said. “The already convinced will be still concerned, but the story lines may reduce the seriousness of the issue.”28. What can be implied according to Paragraph 2? A. Chinese writers are not
24、 concerned with the issue of climate change. B. Cli-fi has gained great popularity so far. C. The course on climate change literature is the most welcome in universities. D. A focuses a lot on environmental issues.29. The underlined phrase “down to earth” in Paragraph 3 probably means _.A. realistic
25、 B. original C. attractive D. lively30. Sarah Holdings words are mentioned to prove that _. A. movies and TV shows work best in promoting difficult ideas B. younger readers pay more attention to climate change C. the term “cli-fi” is helpful in raising environmental awareness D. cli-fi is attractive
26、 to younger generations31.Which of the following is NOT true according to the last paragraph? A. Cli-fis potential is challenged by some people. B. George thinks cli-fi wont change anyones mind. C. Those who dont believe the stories think the issue is not true. D. Those who believe the stories wont
27、care about the issue any more.D A team of engineers at Harvard Univesity has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly.The mechanical(机械的) fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech integrated systems（整合系统）. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the
28、 size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks. “Its extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components,” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been w
29、orking on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said
30、. They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies(互相依赖) on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything its co
31、nnected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation（计算）, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured. While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-
32、board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers fields or on the battlefield. “Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said. Wood says the design offers a n
33、ew way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult w
34、ith the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”32.The difficulty the team of engineers met with while making the robotic fly was that _.Athey had no model i
35、n their mind Bthey did not have enough time Cthey had no ready-made components Dthey could not put the components together33.It can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4 that the robotic fly _.Aconsists of a flight device and a control system Bcan just fly in limited areas at the present time Ccan col
36、lect information from many sourceDhas been put into wide application 34.Which of the following can be learned from the passage?AThe robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects. BAnimals are not allowed in biological experiments. CThere used to be few ways to study how insects fly. DWoods design
37、 can replace animals in some experiments. 35.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?AFather of Robotic Fly BInspiration from Engineering Science CRobotic Fly Imitates Real Life Insect DHarvard Breaks Through in Insect Study第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项
