24、ques Sennacques wrote a message to remind a cousin in the Netherlands to send him a relatives death certificate. To prevent others from reading the message, the note was carefully folded, or “letter locked.” The technique was used before the invention of envelopes. However, for reasons unknown, the
25、note never reached the recipient and was instead stored in a postmasters trunk, where it remained undetected for centuries. Now, a team of international researchers has deciphered(破译) the contents of the over 300-year-old sealed letterwithout opening it!The chain of events leading to this technology
26、 began in 2015 when MIT expert Jana Dambrogio got a call from Daniel Starza Smith, a researcher at Kings College London. “He asked me, What would you do if I told you there was a trunk with 600 unopened letters?”The trunk had once belonged to 17th-century postmaster Simon de Brienne. Historians beli
27、eve the post office stored the undelivered letters. Thats because, in the 17th century, it was the recipient, not the sender, who bore the postage cost. When Brienne died in 1707, he donated the trunk of letters to an orphanage. Somehow, the trunk eventually made its way to the postal museum, where
28、it lay until recently.Since opening the letters would destroy them, Dambrogio and her team decided to develop technology to unseal them virtually. They began by using a high-resolution X-ray scanner to create a detailed three-dimensional image of a sealed letter. While the writing inside showed up v
29、ery clearly, the numerous layers of folded paper pressed close together caused the words to overlap(重叠).To solve the issue, the researchers created sophisticated algorithm(算法) capable of deciphering the writing in the cleverly folded letter, crease by crease. The virtual opening allowed the team to
30、read the contents “while preserving letter locking evidence.” The algorithm took almost five years to perfect. Once perfected, they used it to open four locked letters and fully decode(解码) the one from Sennacques.28. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. Quite a few people could write letter
31、s.B. Envelopes were not invented in 1697.C. Jacques Sennacques was a postmaster.D. Researchers couldnt figure out the letter.29. Why did the post office store the undelivered letters?A. To get paid.B. To find the senders.C. To save the cost.D. To scan the letters.30. We can conclude that the folded
32、letters_.A. were badly damagedB. were all decodedC. remained very freshD. were very fragile31. How did the researchers decode the letter from Sennacques?A. Physically.B. Chemically.C. Occasionally.D. Digitally.DAviculturists, people who raise birds for commercial sale, have not yet learned how to cr
33、eate similar conditions to the natural incubation (孵化) of parrot eggs in the wild. They continue to look for better ways to increase egg production and to improve chick survival rates.When parrots incubate their eggs in the wild, the temperature and humidity (湿度) of the nest are controlled naturally
34、. Heat is transferred from the birds skin to the top of the eggshell, leaving the sides and bottom of the egg at a cooler temperature. This temperature difference may be vital to successful hatching. Nest construction can contribute to this temperature difference. Nests of loosely arranged sticks, r
35、ocks, or dirt are cooler in temperature at the bottom where the egg contacts the nesting material. Such nests also act as humidity regulators by allowing rain to drain into the bottom sections of the nest so that the eggs are not in direct contact with the water. As the water that collects in the bo
36、ttom of the nest changes into gas, the water vapor rises and is heated by the incubating bird, which adds significant humidity to the incubation environment.In artificial incubation programs, aviculturists remove eggs from the nests of parrots and incubate them under laboratory conditions. Most comm
37、ercial incubators heat the eggs fairly evenly from top to bottom, thus ignoring the birds method of natural incubation, and perhaps reducing the survivability of the hatching chicks.When incubators are not used, aviculturists sometimes suspend wooden boxes outdoors to use as nests in which to place
38、eggs. In areas where weather can become cold after eggs are laid, it is very important to maintain a deep foundation of nesting material to protect eggs against the cold bottom of the box. If eggs rest against the wooden bottom in extremely cold weather conditions, they can become chilled to a point
39、 where the embryo (胚胎) can no longer survive Similarly, these boxes should be protected from direct sunlight to avoid high temperatures that are also fatal to the growing embryo.Nesting material should be added in sufficient amounts to avoid both extreme temperature situations mentioned above and as
40、sure that the eggs have a soft, secure place to rest.32. According to paragraph 2, when the temperature of the sides and bottom of the egg are cooler than the top, then _.A. there may be a good chance for successful incubationB. the incubating parent moves the egg to a new positionC. the embryo will
41、 not develop normallyD. the incubation process is slowed down33. The construction of the nest allows water to _.A. provide a beneficial source of humidity in the nestB. loosen the materials at the bottom of the nestC. keep the nest in a clean conditionD. touch the bottom of the eggs34. Which of the
42、following is a problem with commercial incubators?A. They are expensive to operate.B. They are unable to heat the eggs evenly.C. They lack the natural temperature changes.D. They fail to transfer heat to eggs like parent birds do.35. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Nesting material varies ac
43、cording to the parrots environment.B. Humidity is an important factor in incubating parrots eggs.C. Aviculturists have constructed the ideal nest box for parrots.D. Wild parrots nests provide information useful for artificial incubation.第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多
44、余选项。Mold is unpleasant because of how it looks and smells. Some people have the habit of removing mold from food in order to consume the unaffected rest. 36 Removing the moldy parts doesnt guarantee that the toxins(毒素) present in the product will be removed completely. Therefore, they can cause illn
45、ess or food poisoning. Only hard and dry food scan be consumed once the moldy part has been removed. Therefore, you should completely throwaway soft and moist foods in this situation. 37 We cant afford to ignore the presence of molds on the surface and inside products. However its okay to eat cured
46、meat products, firm fruits, and vegetables. 38 Many of these have to do with the consumption of raw foods that havent undergone the appropriate processes. For example, eat some fruits without washing them thoroughly. Some chemicals are often added to them while they are being grown or processed. Bes
47、ides, consuming raw or undercooked white fish, without prior freezing, also increases the risk of contamination(污染) with anisakis. 39 Experts usually recommend unfreezing products in the refrigerator. This prevents temperatures that are favorable for bacterial growth.ln addition, you must take care
48、when handling raw foods and cooked foods to avoid cross-contamination. Cross-contamination can occur through indirect spread of microorganisms by equipment, food handlers, cook facilities or surfaces. 40 Microorganisms could pass from one to the other and certain microorganisms cause most types of f
49、ood poisoning, After entering the body, these living things release poisons that make people sick.A. These problems exist everywhere.B. There are other dangerous situations C. You should never use the same tools. D. Food unfreezing processes are a critical point. E. Therefore, many think it can be a
50、 common problem. F. However, many are unaware this could lead to illness. G. You should never eat bread that have developed mold.第三部分语言运用 (共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题:每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。During breakfast this morning, I watched my son, Jake, drag the kitchen chair to the coun
