26、ons (创新) IBM believes will change the world in the next five years, according to the companys annual “Five in Five” list. Smart machines will also be able to listen to the environment and highlight the sounds we care about most. For instance, an advanced speech recognition system will tell new paren
27、ts why their baby is crying. This kind of thing is not possible today, but with an advanced enough system, its actually possible. In the near future, personal computers will be able to do more than recognize images and visual data. Their built-in cameras will be able to analyze features such as colo
28、rs, and understand the meaning of visual media, such as knowing how to sort family photos.Smart machines will also be able to smell. If you sneeze on your computer or cellphone, tiny sensors (传感器) in the machine will be able to analyze thousands of molecules (分子) in your breath. “It can give you an

34、be used to recognize images.COnly about 30 percent of people in the US know how to perform CPR (心肺复苏术).

35、eathing. “I noticed he looked pale. I looked at his arms and his legs and they were limp (无力的),” Rohm told a local newspaper. “Then I noticed that he looked like he wasnt alive.” In dismay, she dropped and broke her cellphone. Rohm had to run into the street, screaming for help.“I had him in my arms
36、 and screamed over and over. Then I ran outside. I saw two boys playing across the street, and I yelled, Go and ask your parents to call 911,” Rohm said. But the two boys were able to do more than that. Nine-year-old Ethan Wilson took action, showing Rohm how to perform CPR on little Isiah while ten
37、-year-old Rocky Hurt helped as well.Rocky said he had learned the CPR technique from a poster in a health class at their school, Sedalia Park Elementary. “I was thinking wed better give her a helping hand instead of getting scared,” Ethan said. “I told her to push on the babys chest five to ten time

40、es the underlined word “dismay” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Panic.B. Anger. C. Excitement.D. Joy.45. What did Rohm do when she saw the two boys? A.

A. gratefulB. regretfulC. surprised D. ashamedDHeres one new mom with lots of experience at least 62 years old. On February 3, a Laysan albatross (黑背信天翁) named Wisdom hatched a health
42、y chick on a Pacific island near Hawaii. It was the sixth year in a row this bird had hatched a chick. What makes Wisdom so special is that her species normally lives only 12 to 40 years. So not only has she outlived most other Laysan albatrosses by at least two decades, but also remained productive
43、 and able to hatch healthy chicks in her 60s.To track a wild bird, biologists often wrap a long-lasting, numbered metal band around one of the birds legs. Scientists can then recognize a particular bird every time its band comes into view. Chandler Robbins first banded her leg in 1956. At the time,
44、this biologist from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) estimated that she was already at least 5 years old.Once reaching breeding age, Wisdom and her kin (亲属) return each November to a tiny Pacific island to breed. At breeding time, the Laysan albatross will scratch out a shallow nest in the ground.
45、A female then lays a single egg. Both she and her mate will take turns incubating (孵化) the egg until it hatches. More than seven out of every ten Laysan albatrosses nest on just one islandMidway Atoll. Thats Wisdoms home.Wild albatrosses often die long before they come close to Wisdoms age. Some are
46、 eaten. Others starve to death, get sick or suffer life-threatening injuries from the gears used by fishing boats. Keeping track of such long-lived birds offers scientists an opportunity to learn much about how these animals reproduce, especially late in life. Since she was first banded, Wisdom may
47、have reared as many as 35 chicks.47. What makes Wisdom special? A. She becomes the oldest bird in the world. B. She often flies to a Pacific island to nest. C. She hatched a healthy chick at a very old age. D. She can hatch a healthy chick almost every year.48. In Paragraph 3, the writer tells us .
48、A. when the albatross hatched its first chick B. how scientists know the albatross age C. why the albatross lives such a long life D. why scientists are interested in the albatross49. What do we know about Laysan albatrosses breeding habits? A. They begin to incubate eggs in October. B. All albatros
49、ses like nesting on the same island. C. A female albatross hatches one chick each time. D. Male albatrosses are not responsible for incubating eggs.50. What is the best title of the text? A. An albatross outlives most of other albatrosses B. An albatross attracts scientists attention C. An albatross
50、 hatched a healthy chick at 62D. An albatross was seen again 56 years later EYou dont know what youve got until its gone. Ive learned that through my personal experiences. A few months ago, I woke up deaf in one ear. I did not pay much attention to it at first. It felt that I had water in my ear. Ho
51、wever, I began to hear less and less out of that ear. I even had to ask people to talk into my other ear so that I could hear them. I didnt realize how serious it was until late in the day (为时太晚). One evening, when I was sitting on my bed doing chemistry homework, I fell off my bed. When trying to g
52、et up, I was incredibly dizzy (头晕的). I went to see a doctor and he told me that hearing loss was common. However, hearing loss is usually bilateral, or occurs in both ears. He said that my hearing should come back within a week. After about a week the dizziness eventually went away, but the hearing
53、loss did not. The medicine helped and I gained some of my hearing back. After many hearing tests, the doctor diagnosed (诊断) that I had permanent hearing loss in that ear. School became harder for me because I couldnt hear my teachers. I was very depressed. Finally, I bought a hearing aid. With the h
54、earing aid, my hearing is almost back to normal. It makes school and group conversations easier.My friends, teachers and even complete strangers always ask me questions about hearing loss. I answer them patiently. I never get offended because I know this is new to them. I am delighted that I can tea
55、ch them something new. What I have learned from this particular situation is that when things are desperate, there is always something good that can come out of it. My experiences have given me an opportunity to teach people about hearing loss and also taught me about the value of hearing. 51. What
56、happened to the author?A. He is born deaf.B. He becomes deaf in a traffic accident.C. He woke up deaf in one ear one day.D. He becomes deaf due to taking some medicine.52.

58、t his hearing loss with othersC. the author took some medicine to treat his hearing lossD. the medicine that doctors gave him didnt work at all55. At present, the author is .A. desperate B. optimistic C. depressed D. angry四、任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词
59、。Does any of this sound familiar? “Im too tall.” “Im too short.” “Im too fat.” Are you putting yourself down? If so, youre not alone. As a teenager, youre going through lots of changes in your body. As your body changes, so does your body image (意象). Body image is how you view your physical self inc
60、luding whether you feel youre attractive and whether others like your looks.

61、good friendships, becoming more independent from your parents and challenging yourself physically and mentally (精神上).

The father, who is a football fan, proposes watching a football match, while the mother, a movie lover, suggests that they should go to the movies.
69、But in the end, they happily take their sons advice that they should visit the grandparents. With the development of society, more and more elders are neglected and left at home alone. They feel lonely and desire spiritual comfort.In my opinion, we should take good care of our old parents. Even if we are very busy, we ought to spare some time to communicate with them. For example, we can give them a ring every day to show our concern. And we can call on them every few days, chatting with them and having dinners together to make them happy.- 11 - 版权所有高考资源网
