16、going to put it in my Grandma􀆳s Box.”“What􀆳s that?” they asked.“It􀆳s a large wooden chest full of toys for my grandchildren,” I replied.“You don􀆳t have grandchildren,” someone said.“I don􀆳t now.” I replied.“But someday I will.When I do,my box will be full

17、 of wonderful things for them.”My imaginary Grandma􀆳s Box worked like magic that spring,and later.Sometimes,students would ask me to describe all the things I had in it.Then I would try to remember the different possessions I supposedly had taken awaysince I seldom actually kept them.Usuall

18、y, the offender would appear at the end of the day,and I would return the belonging.The years went by,and my first grandchild Gordon was born.I shared my joy with that year􀆳s class.Then someone said,“Now you can use your Grandma􀆳s Box.” From then on instead of coming to ask their p

19、ossessions back,the students would say,“That􀆳s okay.Put it in your Grandma􀆳s Box for Gordon.”I loved talking about the imaginary box,not only with my students but also with my own children.They enjoyed hearing about all the forbidden fruit I had collected.Then one Christmas I recei

23、 a responsible grandmother.CIn May 1987 the Golden Gate Bridge had a 50th birthday party.The bridge was closed to motor traffic so people could enjoy a walk across it.Organizers expected perhaps 50,000 people to show up.Instead,as many as 800,000 crowded the roads to the bridge.By the time 250,000 w

24、ere on the bridge,engineers noticed something terrible:the roadway was flattening under what turned out to be the heaviest load it had ever been asked to carry.Worse,it was beginning to sway(晃动).The authorities closed access to the bridge and tens of thousands of people made their way back to land.A

25、 disaster was avoided.The story is one of scores in To Forgive Design:Understanding Failure,a book that is at once a love letter to engineering and a paean(赞歌)to its breakdowns.Its author,Dr.Henry Petroski,has long been writing about disasters.In this book,he includes the loss of the space shuttles(

26、航天飞机)Challenger and Columbia,and the sinking of the Titanic.Though he acknowledges that engineering works can fail because the person who thought them up or engineered them simply got things wrong,in this book Dr.Petroski widens his view to consider the larger context in which such failures occur.So

27、metimes devices fail because a good design is constructed with low quality materials incompetently applied.Or perhaps a design works so well it is adopted elsewhere again and again,with seemingly harmless improvements,until,suddenly,it does not work at all anymore.Readers will encounter not only sto

28、ries they have heard before,but some new stories and a moving discussion of the responsibility of the engineer to the public and the ways young engineers can be helped to grasp them.“Success is success but that is all that it is,” Dr.Petroski writes.It is failure that brings improvement.28.What happ

31、d be avoided.D.Success comes from joint efforts.31.What is the text?A.A news report.B.A short story.C.A book review.D.A research article.DRainforests are home to a rich variety of medicinal plants,food,birds and animals.Can you believe that a single bush(灌木丛)in the Amazon may have more species of an

32、ts than the whole of Britain! About 480 varieties of trees may be found in just one hectare of rainforest.Rainforests are the lungs of the planet-storing vast quantities of carbon dioxide and producing a significant amount of the world􀆳s oxygen.Rainforests have their own perfect system for

33、ensuring their own survival; the tall trees make a canopy(树冠层)of branches and leaves which protect themselves,smaller plants,and the forest animals from heavy rain,intense dry heat from the sun and strong winds.Amazingly,the trees grow in such a way that their leaves and branches,although close toge

34、ther,never actually touch those of another tree.Scientists think this is the plants􀆳 way to prevent the spread of any tree diseases and make life more difficult for leaf-eating insects like caterpillars.To survive in the forest,animals must climb,jump or fly across the gaps.The ground floor

35、 of the forest is not all tangled leaves and bushes,like in films,but is actually fairly clear.It is where dead leaves turn into food for the trees and other forest life.They are not called rainforests for nothing! Rainforests can generate 75% of their own rain.At least 80 inches of rain a year is n

36、ormaland in some areas there may be as much as 430 inches of rain annually.This is real rain-your umbrella may protect you in a shower,but it won􀆳t keep you dry if there is a full rainstorm.In just two hours,streams can rise ten to twenty feet.The humidity(湿气)of large rainforests contribute

37、s to the formation of rainclouds that may travel to other countries in need of rain.32.What can we learn about rainforests from the first paragraph?A.They produce oxygen.B.They cover a vast area.C.They are well managed.D.They are rich in wildlife.33.Which of the following contributes most to the sur

38、vival of rainforests?A.Heavy rains.B.Big trees.C.Small plants.D.Forest animals.34.Why do the leaves and branches of different trees avoid touching each other?A.For more sunlight.B.For more growing space.C.For self-protection.D.For the detection of insects.35.What can be a suitable title for the text

39、?A.Life-Giving RainforestsB.The Law of the JungleC.Animals in the AmazonD.Weather in Rainforests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。Talking with your doctorTalking freely with your doctor can make you feel better and gives your doctor the information she or he needs to

79、ese are just 4 of the 17 highly unique camps being offered.”可知,今年夏天巴利岛有17个露营地。22.B细节理解题。根据第二段中“While running every aspect of our own news station,kids and their fellow campers will create and host a broadcast airing each night at dinner for the entire camp.”可知,营员在广播营会经营一家新闻电台。23.C细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“If yo

80、ur child enjoys being in the kitchen,then the culinary camp is definitely the right fit.Campers learn technical skills of roasting,frying and cutting,as well as some recipes that they can take home and share with their families.”可知,Culinary Camp会吸引对烹饪感兴趣的孩子。【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲叙了作者为收集学生们带到学校的玩具,想出了一

81、个“奶奶的盒子”的办法。到后来,作者的第一个孙子出生,学生们也不再来要求归还他们的财物了,作者也在某一年圣诞节收到了儿子制作的大木箱,将“奶奶的盒子”变成了现实。24.A细节理解题。根据第三段中“Please bring that pistol to me, I said.I􀆳m going to put it in my Grandma􀆳s Box.”(“请把那支水枪给我,”我说。“我要把它放在我奶奶的盒子里”)可知,作者与学生进行对话的目的是收集水枪。25.D词义猜测题。根据划线词后面“I would return the belonging”,结合上文

82、提到作者把学生带到学校的玩具称为“禁果”,且作者的“盒子”里装的就是“禁果”可知,划线词意思为“禁果的拥有者”。26.D细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“From then on instead of coming to ask their possessions back,the students would say,That􀆳s okay.Put it in your Grandma􀆳s Box for Gordon.”(从那时起,学生们不再来要求归还他们的财物,而是说:“没关系。把它放在你奶奶给戈登的盒子里”)可知,学生们在得知了戈登的出生后,他们不再索要

83、玩具。27.B推理判断题。作者要收集学生们从书包里掏出的各种各样的“禁果”,说明作者对待学生很严格;同时作者又想出了“奶奶的盒子”这个的方法来收集学生们的玩具,说明作者很聪明,由此可推知,作者是一个严格而聪明的老师。【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。主要讲述了对彼得罗斯基博士的书原谅设计:理解失败的评论,工程设计可能会因为某些原因带来失败,但失败才能带来进步。28.A细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“the roadway was flattening under what turned out to be the heaviest load it had ever been asked to ca

84、rry.”可知,金门大桥50岁生日那天,它的重量超过了它的承受能力。29.C推理判断题。根据文章第三段的“Sometimes devices fail because a good design is constructed with low quality materials incompetently applied.”可知,有时,由于一个好的设计是用不合格的低质量材料建造的,所以装置会失败。由此推测,不是所有的灾难都是由工程设计引起的是彼得罗斯基博士的想法。30.A细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的 “It is failure that brings improvement.”可知,失败能

85、带来进步,所以选A项。31.C推理判断题。根据文章第二段的“The story is one of scores in To Forgive Design:Understanding Failure,a book that is at once a love letter to engineering and a paean to its breakdowns.”可知,这个故事是原谅设计:理解失败一书中的一个,这本书既是对工程的一封情书,也是对其崩溃的赞歌。并且后面两段都在写这本书里的内容以及评价。由此推测,这篇文章是书评。【语篇导读】本文是说明文。热带雨林也享有“地球之肺”的美誉,因其植物的
