53、ple who can accomplish unbelievable tasks, such as memorizing thousands of random numbers in under an hour, state that they just have normal brains. Some memory superstars compete in Olympic-like World Memory Championships. These mental athletes, or MAs for short, can memorize names of dozens of str

54、angers in a few minutes or any poem handed them. Ed Cooke, a 24-year-old MA, explains they see themselves as participants rescuing the long-lost art of memory training. These techniques existed not to recall useless information, but to cut into the brain basic text and ideas. A study in the journal

55、Nature examined eight people who finished near the top of the World Memory Championships. The scientists examined whether their brains were fundamentally different from everyone elses or whether they were simply making better use of memorizing abilities we all possess. They put the MAs and control s

56、ubjects into brain scanners and had them memorize numbers and photographs. The result surprised everyone. The brains of the MAs and those of the control subjects were indistinguishable. On every test, the MAs scored in the normal range. However, when the scientists examined what part of the brain wa

57、s used during a memory activity, they found the MAs relied more heavily on areas in the brain involved in spatial memory. MAs offer an explanation: anything can be fixed upon our memories and kept in order by constructing a building in the imagination and filling it with pictures of what needs to be

58、 recalled. Dating back to the fifth century, the building is called a memory palace. Even as late as the fourteenth century, when there were copies of any text, scholars needed to remember what was read to them. Reading to remember requires a different technique than speed reading. If something is m

59、ade memorable, it has to be repeated. Until relatively recently, people read only a few books intensively (细致地) again and again, usually aloud. Today we read extensively, usually only once and without continuous focus. So the great difference is the ability to create impressive pictures in mind and

60、to do it quickly. Using memory palaces, MAs create memorized pictures. For example, recombine the pictures to form unforgettable scenes such as the ways through a town. One competitor used his own body parts to help him memorize a 57, 000-word dictionary. Anyone who wishes to train the mind needs fi

61、rst to create fantastical palaces in the imagination. Then they should cut each building into cubbyholes for memories. In a short amount of time, they will notice improvement with remembering things. To keep the skill sharp, MAs deliberately empty their palaces after competitions, so they can reuse

62、them and they recommend that beginners do the same. 【语篇概述】本文是一篇说明文, 记忆达人与普通人的头脑是不是存在着差别? 文章对此进行了研究, 发现这些记忆达人在记忆的时候会使用空间记忆等不同的记忆构建方法。28. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that a mental athlete _.

Why does the author mention “speed reading” in Paragraph 3? A. To discuss the memorizing technique in the fifth century. B. To give th

64、e reason why people read only a few books carefully. C. To explain the text fourteenth century scholars had to remember. D. To compare the type of reading nowadays with that of earlier times. 【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据第三段后三句可知, 作者使用speed reading指现代人的阅读类型与以前有了很大的变化, 之前人们通常反复阅读一本书, 而现在通常只读一次。故选D。30. What can be

One person probably has 57, 000 body parts. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第四段可知, 我们可以把多张图片结合形成一些令人难忘的场景。如果我们要想记住更多的事情, 就要在脑海里形成更多这样的场景。也就是说会有各种各样的

66、场景, 故选A。31. What does the underlined word “cubbyholes” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Small spaces. B. Blacks holes. C. Technical skills. D. Different numbers. 【解析】选A。猜测词义题。横线前面一句“Anyone who wishes to train the mind needs first to create fantastical palaces in the imagination. ”告诉我们首先要在脑海里创

67、造出幻想出的宫殿, 然后再把这些宫殿分隔成不同的记忆空间来存储不同的记忆内容。所以本句中的“cubbyholes”是指被分隔出来的小空间。故选A。DAccording to the Associated Press (AP), a Chinese scientist claims he successfully created the worlds first genetically-edited babies. Chinese researcher He Jiankui, a research professor at Chinas Southern University of Scienc

68、e and Technology in Shenzhen, said he had edited DNA of twin girls born a few weeks ago. Hes claims were immediately criticized by some scientists as unsafe and unethical. This kind of gene editing is forbidden in the United States and many other countries. Such changes to a persons DNA can pass to

69、future generations and risk harming other genes. In interviews, He Jiankui defended his work. He said he had performed the gene editing to help protect the babies from future infection of HIV, the virus responsible for the disease AIDS. He said the process had “worked safely” and the twin girls were

70、 “as healthy as any other babies. ” He told the AP he felt a strong responsibility “not just to make a first, but also to make an example” for future research. “Society will decide what to do next, ” he said.

71、ly went against academic ethics and standards. ” University officials said they had no knowledge of his research and had looked into the case. Chinas National Health Commission was “highly concerned” about the claims and ordered local health officials “to immediately look into” Hes activity. “We hav

72、e to be responsible for the peoples health and will act on this according to the law, ” the commission said. Scientists discovered in recent years a new way to edit genes that make up a persons DNA throughout the body. The tool, called CRISPR-cas9, makes it possible to change DNA to supply a needed

73、gene or take one away that is causing problems. So far the tool has only been used on adults to treat deadly diseases, and the changes only affected that person. Kiran Musunuru, a scientist from University of Pennsylvania, told the AP that if such an experiment had been carried out on human beings,

74、it could not be “morally or ethically reasonable. ” Julian Savulescu, a medical ethics expert at Britains University of Oxford, agreed. “If true, this experiment may cause disasters, ” he told Reuters. However, one well-known geneticist, Harvard Universitys George Church, defended the attempt to edi

75、t genes to prevent infections of HIV. He told the AP that since HIV is “a major and growing public health threat” he finds such experiments “valuable”. 【语篇概述】这是一篇新闻报道。这篇文章主要讲了据美联社报道, 一名中国科学家声称他成功地创造了世界上第一个经过基因编辑的婴儿。32. What can we learn from this passage? A. All scientists consider Hes experiment un

76、safe and unethical. B. The university He works in supports his experiment. C. Many countries dont allow editing babies genetically. D. Chinas National Health Commission thinks highly of Hes experiment. 【解析】选C。细节理解题。答案定位在第三段This kind of gene editing is forbidden in the United States and many other co

77、untries. (这种基因编辑在美国和其他许多国家是被禁止的。)故选C。33. The following sentence “However, many scientists believe such experiment is dangerous. ” can be placed in _. A. B. C. D. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。第三段Hes claims were immediately criticized by some scientists as unsafe and unethical. This kind of gene editing is forbidden

78、in the United States and many other countries. 说贺的说法立即被一些科学家批评为不安全和不道德的。这种基因编辑在美国和其他许多国家是被禁止的。由此判断上文一定会说“然而, 许多科学家认为这样的实验是危险的”, 故选A。34. Whats the authors attitude towards He Jiankuis research? A. Supportive. B. Uninterested. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral. 【解析】选D。推理判断题。作者只是如实说出社会各界对贺建奎基因编辑婴儿的看法, 所以作者对于贺建奎的

79、研究持中立态度, 故选D。35. What might be the best title of this passage? A. Chinese Scientist Claims First Gene Edited BabiesB. Chinese Scientist Finds A New Cure For AIDSC. Gene Editing Still Has A Long Way To GoD. China Takes The Lead In Gene Editing【解析】选A。主旨大意题。第一段According to the Associated Press (AP), a

80、Chinese scientist claims he successfully created the worlds first genetically-edited babies. 是全文的主题句, 结合全文内容, 可知这篇文章主要讲了据美联社报道, 一名中国科学家声称他成功地创造了世界上第一个经过基因编辑的婴儿, 故选A。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, 选项中有两项为多余选项。Floods are one of the most common disasters in the US.
