文章大意:本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了过去100年中几位杰出女性,赞扬她们为人类进步所做出的巨大贡献。

4 . You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?

Jane Addams (1860-1935)

Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community (社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.

Rachel Carson (1907-1964)

If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.

Sandra Day O’Connor (1930-present)

When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator (参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the Supreme Court of the United States. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 25 years on the top court.

Rosa Parks (1913-2005)

On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott (抵制). It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in,” said Parks.

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了美籍匈牙利人,物理学家、数学家、发明家,“现代电子计算机之父” ——约翰•冯•诺依曼.他对人类社会做出了重大的贡献,而且他制定的计算机工作原理直到现在还被各种电脑使用着。作为二十世纪最伟大的人物之一他会被人们永远铭记在心。

5 . John von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and loving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he might lead a poor life being a mathematician, so von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph. D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry.

In 1930, von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others).

World War Ⅱ hugely changed von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematical theories into practice. During the last part of the war, he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died of cancer in 1957.

Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.

Von Neumann really was a legend in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving abilities is a part of his legend. He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.”

1. According to the text, von Neumann’s father believed that _________.
A.a mathematician needed a good memory

C.von Neumann had the gift for solving problems at a high speed
D.a mathematician couldn’t earn a lot of money

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。这篇文章主要讲述了10岁的Sara赢得了一项国家书法比赛,并获得了2019年尼古拉斯·马克西姆奖。尽管Sara出生时没有手,但她能够用她的双臂拿起铅笔并写出优美的草书字体。她以独立、坚强和机智的态度生活,总能找到解决问题的方法。她赢得了这个奖项,并获得了一枚奖章和500美元的奖金。这是圣约翰学校的第一个获得尼古拉斯·马克西姆奖的学生。

6 . Sara Hinesley, who is 10, doesn’t understand why it is so remarkable that she won a national handwriting competition.

Sara, a third-grade student at St. John Regional Catholie School in Frederick, Maryland, won the 2019 Nicholas Maxim award for her cursive (草书的) handwriting.

She paints and draws, and sculpts clay. She can write in English and some Chinese. When she learnt to write in cursive this year, Sara said, she thought it was “kind of easy”. This is all despite the fact that Sara was born without hands.

To write, Sara holds her pencil between her arms and then focuses on the shapes of letters, each point and curve. “Writing in cursive feels like creating art work,” Sara said. “I like the way the letters are formed. It’s kind of art.”

Sara has never worn a prosthesis (artificial arms), and when she is offered help or a tool that might ease some tasks — such as cutting paper with scissors — she rejects it, said her mother, Cathryn Hinesley She has this independent trend where she just knows that she can do it and she'll figure out her own way. She is beautiful and strong and mighty just the way she is, and she just lives that way. She really does. She moves through life in this way that you never really see her as having a disability because she has a “can do, I-can-solve-anything attitude”

“Sara is an evidence of strong will and the human spirit,” Cathryn said. “Every day I am amazed at the things she is capable to do and that she chooses to do. She doesn't attempt to find her way to avoid s difficulty. She finds a way to finish the task.”

Sara received her national award — a medal — at an award ceremony on June 13, where she was also given a $500 prize. She is the first student from St. John’s to ever receive the Nicholas Maxim award.

1. We can infer from the first sentence that              .
A.Sara makes every effort to win the award
B.Sara considers it easy to win the award
C.Sara doesn’t take the award seriously
D.Sara is excited at winning the award
2. Which of the following words can be used to describe Sara?
A.Brave.B.Intelligent.C.Generous.D.Strong-minded.
3. What is implied in Cathryn’s words?
A.She expects Sara to be independent.B.She is greatly proud of Sara.
C.She doesn’t think Sara has a disability.D.She is concerned about Sara's future.
4. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A.Health.B.Education.C.Science.D.Entertainment.

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了优秀作家契诃夫的写作之路,从最开始的兼职写作到后来成为一名全职作家,他给世人留下了许多优秀的作品。

8 . A qualified doctor who rarely practised but instead devoted his life to writing once said, “Medicine is my lawful wife and literature is my lover.” Russian writer Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was a great playwright (剧作家) and one of the masters of the modern short story.

When Chekhov entered the Medical School of Moscow University in 1879, he started to publish hundreds of comic short stories to support his family. After he graduated, he wrote regularly for a local daily newspaper.

As a writer he was extremely fast — often produced a short story in an hour or less. Chekhov's medical and science experience can be seen through the indifference many of his characters show to tragic events. In 1892, he became a full-time writer and published some of his most memorable stories.

Chekhov often wrote about the sufferings of civilians in small towns of Russia. Tragic events controlled his characters who were filled with feelings of hopelessness and despair.

It is often said that nothing happens in Chekhov's stories and plays. He made up for this with his exciting technique for developing drama within his characters. Chekhov's works combined the calm attitude of a scientist and doctor with the sensitivity of an artist.

Some of Chekhov's works were translated into Chinese as early as the 1940s. One of his famous stories, The Man in a Case, about a school teacher's extraordinarily orderly life was selected as a text for Chinese senior students.

1. Anton Pavlovich Chekhov    .
A.had a lawful loverB.was an illegal writer
C.used to be a lawyerD.was a capable doctor
2. In 1880, Chekhov    .
A.became a full-time writerB.studied medicine in Moscow University
C.practiced medicine in his hometownD.published his most memorable stories
3. According to the passage, which of the following words can't be used to describe Chekhov?
A.Sensitive.B.Calm.C.Quick-minded.D.Warm-hearted.
4. Which of the following is the right order of the events?
a. became a full-time writer
b. started to publish comic short stories
c. wrote regularly for a local daily newspaper
d. entered the Medical School of Moscow University
