AWhat are some of your favourite memories of the University?In preparation for the 50th reunion, members of the milestone class are asked to recall campus memories for an annual Memory Book.Here's a small selection of some memories from the Class of 1969.Phyllis Jo Baunach“...I cannot forget the endless hours studying, researching, and learning in the middle of the musty books in the stacks. We did everything by hand! But the joys of ideas coming to life and understanding thorny concepts are priceless.Additionally, I cannot forget the joyful hours of Co-Kast rehearsals for student-written-and- directed plays, and the thrill of audiences’ responses to our efforts. Nor will I ever forget taking voice lessons at the Eastman School of Music. This course gave me confidence to try new musical approaches and to think on my feet.”Paul Boehm"... many sweet and lasting memories—five feet of deep snow, getting stranded on the Thruway, music at Hylie Morris's Alley, and, of course, I met my wife of 48 years, Ellen Blazer Boehm from the Class of 1972, when she was a freshman and I was a senior. As a five-year chemical engineering major, I had one elective to spare, and Ellen said, ‘How about oceanography?’ So, I enrolled in oceanography with Dr. Taro Takahashi（the famous climate scientist）, which awakened my environmental juices, and changed my professional direction.”Farel Vella McClure"...I truly loved my four undergraduate years at the University of Rochester. In fact, I loved it so much that I stayed an extra year to get a master’s degree! I was very fortunate to have been totally immersed in student life on campus. My memories include campaigning and winning a seat on the student government during my freshman year. Other memories include the Susan B. Anthony banquet, and sleeping in the comfy chairs in the library. I was also privileged to be selected as a student representative on the design team for the new WilsonCommons. I. M. Pei, the famous architect who designed the Louvre Pyramid, was the architect for Wilson Commons. We even visited his offices in New York to see the ‘master’ at work.”1. According to the passage, Paul Boehm ______.A. married Ellen Blazer in 1972B. disliked his major in universityC. became a famous climate scientist laterD. discovered his interest in environmental science2. What can we learn about Farel Vella McClure?A. She was a world-famous designer.B. She was active in school activities.C. She had a hard time getting her master’s.D. She once met I. M. Pei at the Louvre Pyramid.3. The three people all talked about ______.A. their beloved professorsB. their great friendshipC. their learning experiencesD. their beautiful campusBEarly February, I was flying up to Ohio. Well prepared, I had everything in my favour—fuel for five hours, charts in order, my flight plan on my lap, and a beautiful clear sky.I was wrong.I had heard a bout Alberta Clippers coming out of Canada. I knew all about them―how an entire air mass was streaming along at over sixty miles an hour.That morning, the Weather Briefer informed me that an Alberta Clipper was going over Chicago about the time I got to the airport. Chicago was some 400 miles from my destination — not a factor, or so I thought. That was the first hint I missed.The controller called and asked if I wanted to adjust my flight plan. I did the check and everything was in the green. So I told him no. Twenty minutes later the controller called again asking whether I wanted to adjust my flight plan. I checked everything. All was fine. I ignored that hint. I was fooled by the smooth air and limited experience with a rapidly moving air mass that was not changing violently. The Alberta Clipper was clipping along.The first blast of turbulence（气流）struck my plane. I got slammed into the roof, and then slammed sideways hitting the window with such force up my nose that I started bleeding.After a 2-hour flight of 100 miles, I realized fuel was now an issue. So was landing. I called Flight Following. We figured out the airport I could land.The engine stopped. So did my heart. There is no quiet as quietly stunning as this one at such an altitude. I had run out of fuel in the left tank, and only a little in my right tank. The engine quit for a second time. I declared an emergency. I was told that I might get another few minutes of fuel if I gently banked the airplane. Luckily, it worked. Then, the engine quit for the last time. I was a glider now. I made a long lazy spiral descent. Down I went. I stopped at the very end of the runway.I made so many mistakes, missed so many clues, and showed my ignorance so much that I beat myself up over and over again in my mind. I learned textbook descriptions of Alberta Clippers and real-life experience with one are totally different. I will never forget the sound of that silence.I flew home the next day. Older. Wiser. Humbler. Lucky.4. We can know from the passage that Alberta Clippers ______.A. can bring snowstormsB. are quick-moving air massesC. are violently changing air pressureD. can lead to a sudden temperature drop5. What mainly led to the author's missing all the hints?A. His lack of flying experience.B. His poor preparation for the journey.C. His misjudgment about the air mass.D. His overconfidence in his piloting skills.6. Which is the right order of the events?a. I declared an emergency.b. My airplane was running out of fuel.c. I insisted on carrying on my flight plan.d. I was thrown to the roof by the violent air mass.e. I slightly banked my airplane and made a landing.A. dcbeaB. dcebaC. cdabeD. cdbae7. The passage describes ______.A.a rewarding trainingB.a narrow escapeC. a painful explorationD.a serious accidentCBack in 1975, economists planned rising life expectancy(预期寿命) against countries’ wealth, and concluded that wealth itself increases longevity. It seemed self-evident: everythingpeople need to be healthy — from food to medical care — costs money.But it soon proved that the data didn’t always fit that theory. Economic booms didn’t always mean longer lives. In addition, for reasons that weren’t clear, a given gain in gross domestic product ( GDP ) caused increasingly higher gains in life expectancy over time, as though it was becoming cheaper to add years of life. Moreover, in the 1980s researchers found gains in learning were associated with greater increases in life expectancy than gains in wealth were. Finally, the more educated people in any country tend to live longer than their less educated fellow citizens. But such people also tend to be wealthier, so it has been difficult to make out which factor is increasing lifespan.Wolfgang Lutz and his colleagues have now done that by collecting average data on GDP per person, lifespan, and years of education from 174 countries, dating from 1970 to 2010. They found that, just as in 1975, wealth associated with longevity. But the association between longevity and years of schooling was closer, with a direct relationship that did not change over time, the way wealth does.Lutz argues that because schooling happens many years before a person has attained their life expectancy, this association reflects cause: better education drives longer life. It also leads to more wealth, which is why wealth and longevity are also associated. But what is important, says Lutz, is that wealth does not seem to be longevity, as experts thought — in fact, education is driving both of them.H e thinks this is because education permanently improves a person’s cognitive abilities, allowing better planning and self-control throughout the rest of their life. This idea is supported by the fact that people who are more intelligent appear to live longer.8. Which of the following best describes economists’ conclusion in 1975?A. Lifespan could be increased by wealth.B. Economic growth didn’t always mean longer life.C. Education influenced longevity more than wealth did.D. A given growth in GDP caused higher gains in longevity.9. What did Wolfgang Lutz and his colleagues find?A. Wealth and longevity did not have any association.B. Longevity and education were more closely associated.C. Differences in wealth predicted differences in longevity.D. Relationship between education and longevity changed over time.10. What part does education play permanently according to Lutz?A. It helps people acquire time-managing and learning habits.B. It always leads to a longer but not necessarily richer life.C. It improves people’s imaginative and innovative abilities.D. It enables people to have better planning and self-control.11. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Wealth influences longevity.B. Education influences longevity.C. Wealth has nothing to do with longevity.D. The relationship between education and wealth.DIn the old days, when you had to drive to a movie theater to get some entertainment, it was easy to see how your actions could have an impact on the environment. After all, you were jumping into your car, driving across town, coughing out emissions and using gas all the way. But now that we’re used to staying at home and streaming movies, we might get a little proud. After all, we’re just picking up our phones and maybe turning on the TV. You’re welcome, Mother Nature.Not so fast, says a recent report from the French-based Shift Project. According to “Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video", digital technologies are responsible for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions, and that energy use is increasing by 9% a year. Watching a half-hour show would cause 1. 6 kilograms of carbon dioxide emissions. That’s like driving 6. 28 kilometers. And in the European Union, the Eureca project found that data centers（where videos are stored）there used 25% more energy in 2017 compared to just three years earlier, reports the BBC.Streaming is only expected to increase as we become more enamored of our digital devices and the possibility of enjoying entertainment where and when we want it increases. Online video use is expected to increase by four times from 2017 to 2022 and account for 80% of all Internet traffic by 2022. By then, about 60% of the world's population will be online.You’re probably not going to give up your streaming services, but there’re things you can do to help lessen the impact of your online use, experts say. For example, according to Lutz Stobbe, a researcher from the Fraunhofer Institute in Berlin, we have no need to upload 25 pictures of the same thing to the cloud because it consumes energy every time. If instead you delete a few things here and there, you can save energy. Moreover, it's also a good idea to stream over Wi-Fi, watch on the smallest screen you can, and turn off your Wi-Fi in your home if you're not using your devices.12.What topic is the first paragraph intended to lead in?A. The environmental effects of driving private cars.B. The improvements on environmental awareness.C. The change in the way people seek entertainment.D. The environmental impacts of streaming services.13. What does the underlined phrase “become more enamored of” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Get more skeptical of.B. Become more aware of.C. Feel much crazier about.D. Get more worried about.14. What can we infer about the use of streaming services?A. It is being reduced to protect the planet.B. Its environmental effects are worsening.C. It is easily available to almost everyone.D. Its side effects have drawn global attention.15. Which of the following is the most environmentally-friendly?A. Watching downloaded movies on a mobile phone.B. Downloading music on a personal computer.C. Uploading a lot of images of the same thing.D. Playing online games over mobile networks.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。
