(2012·河北重点中学联考)Scientists at Harvard University and Bates College find female chimpanzees(黑猩猩)appear to treat sticks as dolls, carrying them around until they have children of their own.Young males engage in such behavior much less frequently.The new work by Sonya M.Kahlenberg and Richard W.Wrangham, described this week in the journal Current Biology, provides the first evidence of a wild nonhuman species playing with dolls, as well as the first known sex difference in a wild animal's choice of playthings.The two researchers say their work adds to a growing body of evidence that human children are probably born with their own ideas of how they want to behave, rather than simply mirroring other girls who play with dolls and boys who play with trucks.Doll play among humans could have its origins in object—carrying by earlier apes(猿类), they say, suggesting that toy selection is probably not due entirely to socialization.“In humans, there are obvious sex differences in children's toy play, and these are remarkably similar across cultures,” says Kahlenberg.“While socialization by elders and peers has been the primary explanation, our work suggests that biology may also have an important role to play in activity preferences.”
In 14 years of data on chimpanzee behavior at the Kibale National Park in Uganda, Kahlenberg and Wrangham counted more than 100 examples of stickcarrying.Some young chimpanzees carried sticks into the nest to sleep with them and on one occasion built a separate nest for the stick.“We have seen juveniles occasionally carrying sticks for many years, and because they sometimes treated them rather like dolls, we wanted to know if in general this behavior tended to represent something like playing with dolls,” says Wrangham, a Professor at Harvard.“If the doll hypothesis(假设)was right, we thought that females should carry sticks more than males do, and that the chimpanzees should stop carrying sticks when they had their first child.We have now watched enough young chimpanzees to prove both points.”
文章大意:动物心理是科学家们研究的一个重要领域。在黑猩猩的世界里,雌性黑猩猩常把棍子当作洋娃娃抱在怀里,而雄性黑猩猩却较少这样做。这是为什么呢?
1.What does a female chimpanzee do with sticks? A.She gives them to her child to play with.B.She treats them as dolls.C.She makes useful tools from them.D.She treats them as weapons.答案:B 细节理解题。由第一段“Scientists at Harvard University and Bates College find female chimpanzees(黑猩猩)appear to treat sticks as dolls”可知。
2.What causes the different toy selection of chimpanzees, according to the passage? A.Sex difference.C.Environment.B.Socialization.D.Cultural difference.答案:A 细节理解题。由第一段最后一句话“Young males engage in such behavior much less frequently.”可知。
3.We can infer from the fourth paragraph that ________.A.socialization has nothing to do with human's choice of playthings B.sex difference is the only factor in human's choice of playthings C.the biology factor may also influence toy choice D.people choose different toys in different cultures 答案:C 细节理解题。由第四段“our work suggests that biology may also have an important role to play in activity preferences”可知。
4.It can be concluded from the passage that ________.A.both humans and chimpanzees choose their playthings due to sex difference B.different factors cause humans and chimpanzees to choose different playthings C.only female chimpanzees have playthings D.chimpanzees usually choose playthings for their children 答案:A 推理判断题。文章讲到,雌性黑猩猩常把棍子当作洋娃娃抱在怀里,而雄性黑猩猩却较少这样做;同时还提到,女孩子和男孩子玩的玩具不同。故选A项。

Maricel Apatan, 22, stands in the kitchen of the Edsa ShangiLa Hotel in Manila, preparing to decorate a cheesecake.It would seem to be a routine task for a cake chef,but Maricel is no ordinary chef—she has no hands.Maricel has come a long way since the day in September 2000 when she and her uncle were attacked near their farm.Fortunately, both of them survived, but the 11yearold girl lost her hands.In 2004,she entered a Manila training centre for people with disabilities.She learned how to write and do housework and,more importantly, came to terms with her disability.After graduation from high school, she took a twoyear Hotel and Restaurant Management course and flourished even though she was the only disabled student in the course.After she moved back to Manila to continue her studies, the media started 6 reporting on this determined young woman.She didn't shy away from the attention.“I wanted others living with disabilities to believe it's possible to live a normal life,”Maricel says.When managers at the Edsa ShangriLa Hotel saw Maricel on television, they hired her as part of the hotel's Care for People project.She has also accomplished her goal of inspiring others.One of them is Ronelyn Calumpiano, a 21yearold with cerebral palsy(脑瘫).She saw Maricel on television and was moved by her confidence.Ronelyn will soon start classes and is already planning a career in IT.Maricel's three younger sisters have moved to Manila.She pays for the rent of their small apartment,while their parents look after their family farm in Mindanao.“It is difficult to make ends meet but I don't lose hope.I believe anything is possible if you dream, work hard and pray.”
文章大意:22岁的Maricel Apatan是一位失去了双手的残疾人,但是她没有放弃希望,努力自立自强。
5.“Maricel is no ordinary chef” because________.A.she is better than other chefs B.she is physically disabled C.she can do a routine task D.she is good at decorating cakes 答案:B 细节理解题。由第一段最后一句话“It would seem to be a routine task for a cake chef,but Maricel is no ordinary chef—she has no hands.”可知,Maricel没有了双手,是一位残疾人。
6.Which of the following is NOT true about Maricel? A.She survived while her uncle did not.B.She didn't shy away from public attention.C.She has inspired some disabled people.D.She managed to make a living by herself.答案:A 细节理解题。由第二段第二句话“Fortunately, both of them survived, but the 11yearold girl lost her hands.”可知,她们二人都幸存了下来。所以A项错误。
7.The underlined word “flourished” in Paragraph 3 is similar in meaning to________.A.was rejected C.recovered well
B.was employed D.developed well 答案:D 猜测词义题。所在句意是“她参加了课程培训,而且学习得很好,尽管她是 班上唯一的一位残疾学生”。
8.According to the text, Ronelyn________.A.works in an IT company B.was inspired by Maricel C.once lived in Mindanao D.has already started classes 答案:B 细节理解题。由第四段最后三句话可知,Ronelyn受到了Maricel的鼓舞,准备接受培训,在IT业从事工作。
9.What does the author want to tell us in the text? A.We should be determined and never lose hope.B.We shouldn't look down upon the disabled.C.We should help those who suffer disabilities.D.We should feel sympathy for the unfortunate.答案:A 推理判断题。由文章大意可知,我们应当学习Maricel的事迹,从中学习她坚强的毅力和不放弃的精神。

When Kansas high school student Blake Hawkins discovered an empty locker at his school,he didn't just fill it with books and equipment—instead,the innovative teen turned it into a soda pop vending machine(自动售货机).
Hawkins explains that the“Soda Locker”vending machine uses a coin acceptor,an LCD screen,a microcontroller board,a magnetic switch,some old video game switches,and batteries.Hawkins explains he had Valley Center High School's support when he was developing the_prototype,and was able to come up with a design that would not damage the existing locker.And he was able to do it for approximately $160 spent on parts.The Soda Locker has a design where no one can remove the control board from the locker and the door swings shut after use to protect it.Furthermore,it's programmed to take exact change only,and to let the operator know when someone is trying to cheat the coin system.Hawkins explains he originally thought about the idea for having a soda pop vending machine in a locker a year ago on his way to history class.While he initially treated it as a joke, he has proven how you can take an idea and turn it into something brilliant.He wrote,“Whether you build your own Soda Locker or not,I hope you're inspired to build whatever project you've come up with!”
1.What can we learn about the Soda Locker made by Hawkins? A.It looks nice.B.It is a combination.C.Its soda tastes great.D.Its equipment is advanced.2.What does the underlined phrase “the prototype” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A.The locker.B.The acceptor.C.The machine.D.The switch.3.What does Paragraph 4 mainly discuss? A.The design process of the Soda Locker.B.The protection system of the Soda Locker.C.The charging system of the Soda Locker.D.The development cost of the Soda Locker.4.Which of the following best describes Hawkins according to the text? A.Optimistic.B.Productive.C.Creative.D.Innocent.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了美国堪萨斯州的一位高中生Blake Hawkins将储物柜改造成了一台功能齐全的苏打汽水自动售货机。
长难句分析:He wrote,“Whether you build your own Soda Locker or not, I hope you're inspired to build whatever project you've come up with!”(最后一段最后一句)分析:Whether引导让步状语从句;you're inspired to build...是宾语从句,作hope的宾语;whatever project you've come up with是宾语从句,作build的宾语。
译文:他写道:“无论你是否建造你自己的自动售货机,我希望你都会被激励做出你所想到的东西。”
词汇积累:locker n.寄物柜 innovative adj.创新的 magnetic adj.有磁性的 approximately adv.大约,近似地
1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“a coin acceptor, an LCD screen,a microcontroller board,a magnetic switch...”可知,Blake Hawkins的自动售货机是组合物。故选B。
2.C 词义猜测题。根据“developing”并结合语境可知,此处指在研发这款机器时,他得到了学校的支持。故画线词应指上文提到的“Soda Locker”这个机器。故选C。
3.B 段落大意题。根据第四段中的“no one can remove...and the door swings shut after use to protect it”可知,本段主要讲的是这款自动售货机自身的保护系统。故选B。
4.C 推理判断题。纵观全文,一个高中生看到空的储物柜能想到将其改为自动售货机,并结合第一段中的“the innovative teen”可知,Blake Hawkins的创造才能非同寻常。故选C。

1.be distributed 考查动词的语态。作为计划的一部分,我们购买食物并将其进行分配。distribute与food之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,应用被动语态。空前是情态动词will,故填be distributed。
2.a 考查冠词。我们定期这样做——每个月的第二个星期一。on a regular basis “定期地”。
3.were loading 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据下文中的“we were doing our...”可知,此处表示过去某个时间点正在进行的动作,应用过去进行时;句子的主语是my friend and I,是复数概念,谓语动词应用复数。故填were loading。
4.Why 考查疑问词。根据下文的“We explained we were doing our...”可知,这位绅士是在问“你们为什么买这么多物品”,故填疑问词Why表示“为什么”。
5.monthly 考查词性转换。根据空前的“our”及空后的“grocery shopping”可知,此处应填形容词作定语。上文的“every month”暗示这里填monthly “每月的”。
6.Saying 考查非谓语动词。逗号后面的句子与前面的部分之间没有连词,故空处所在部分应填非谓语动词,此处表示伴随状况,he和say之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,故用现在分词作状语。
7.to be informed 考查非谓语动词及其被动结构。only后接不定式表示出乎意料的结果,inform与其逻辑主语之间是动宾关系,故应用不定式的被动式。
8.intention 考查词性转换。根据空前的“about our”可知,此处要填名词,intention “意图,目的”。
9.for 考查介词。pay for sth.是固定搭配,“为„„而付钱,负担„„的费用”。故填for。
10.extremely 考查词性转换。此处应用副词修饰were shocked,表示程度,故填 extremely。

Alone Together, an amazing description of our changing relationship with technology, is written by Sherry Turkle, an MIT professor of the Social Studies of Science and Technology.In the book's first half, devoted to robots, Turkle gives out toys like the Tamagotchi, Furby, and Zhu Zhu robotic hamster(仓鼠),then explores children's deep attachments to the creatures and assessments of whether they are alive.Such 3 quasipets set the psychological stage for what Turkle is really worried about: robot lovers.One woman even says that if a robot acted like it cared, she'd trade in her boyfriend.The book's second half explores the “network”—instant messages, social networks, confessional websites, and the like—and how it reshapes the self.Fifteenyearolds send and receive close to 6,000 messages a month.“They communicate all day but are not sure if they have connected.They develop friendships on social networking sites and then wonder if they are among friends.” In texting, a typical question is“Where are you?”,not an openended one like “How are you?” Just as robots produce confusion about whether one is alone or with another, Turkle sighs.“We_are_connected_to_each_other,_but_strangely_more_alone.” “What can't be denied(否认)is that technology, with all its faults, makes life a lot easier.It allows us to get in touch with more people in less time;it can make conversation simple—no small talk required.But are any of those feelings equal to the kind we feel when engaged in a real, facetoface setting? Online, you can ignore others' feelings.In a text message, you can avoid eye contact.A number of studies have found that this generation of teens is becoming unconcerned.That doesn't spell disaster, but it does mean we might want to start thinking about the way we want to live.We've gone through terribly rapid change, and some of these things just need a little sorting out.”Turkle says.This book is not to be missed and worthy of every dollar you spend.36.In her book, Turkle worries that ________. A.the robotic creatures are not alive B.all women would fall in love with robots C.children are addicted to keeping animal pets D.more people are lost in the world of technology 37.What can be implied from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4? A.Internet sets us apart from each other.B.Social network is not the real world.C.Internet brings us closer to each other.D.Messages are used a lot in people's daily life.38.If a child keeps using messages a lot, he or she may ________. A.get engaged in small talks B.care little for others' feelings C.get stuck in many disasters D.well sort out personal relationship 39.The purpose of writing this passage is to ________. A.recommend a good book to readers B.urge people to keep away from technology C.analyze the dangers of keeping robots as lovers D.explore the relationship between human and technology 4
