Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Blind TomIn 1850 an American lawyer, James N. Bethune, bought a slave to work in his home. The slave, a woman, had a small child (21) ___________ (name) Tom, who was blind and autistic (自闭的).One day, Bethune was walking around his garden (22) ___________ he heard music coming from the house. He went inside (23) ___________ (investigate) and found young Tom playing on the family piano. Bethune realized that the boy, who was only four, had special abilities. He hired a band of musicians to come to the house and play in front of him. Tome reproduced perfectly the music he had heard. This confirmed Bethune’s suspicion (24) ___________ Tom had the ability to memorise and repeat pieces of music after (25) ___________ (hear) them just once.In 1857 “Blind Tom”, as he was call ed from them on, took part in his public performance. The reviews were so good that Bethune took him (26) ___________ a tour of the US. Three years later, Blind Tom was invited to the White House, (27) ___________ he performed for the president. Over the next forty years, Tom performed shows all over the US, as well as visiting Canada, the UK and several South American countries. The concerts were a mixture of classical music and (28) ___________ own compositions. They also (29)___________ (feature) a section called the “challenge” when members of the audience played a piece of music on the piano which Tom then (30) ______ _____ reproduce. He never failed. Blind Tom died in 1908.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. approachB. commerciallyC. continuousD. domesticE. heavilyF. novelG. previousH. fundI. scene I. speech K. surpriseWhere’s the soap?It’s funny how TV programmes don’t always live up to your expectations. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve turned on the ‘news’, only to be told who the winner of a talent show is or what a celebrity has been wearing. Or the number of ‘comedies’ which didn’t make me laugh. So it comes as no31 that rarely does a ‘soap opera’ contain soap or singing, let alone classical singing. So, where is the soap?In 1930, the manager of a Chicago radio station managed to 32 a detergent company in order to get sponsorship for a daily, fifteen-minute drama about a woman who left her job as a 33 teacher to work in radio. This was to become Painted Dreams, a serial (系列剧) considered to be the first soap opera. The format was so popular that by 1940, radio soap operas made up 90% of 34 sponsored daytime radio. The word ‘soap’comes from the fact that these programmes were sponsored (and sometimes even produced) by companies which produced 35 cleaning products. They were aimed at housewives, who at that time would be at home.All soap operas were defined by the fact that their storylines are 36 . Several plots often run at the same time, and each episode (集) usually ends with a ‘cliffhanger’, an open ending designed to make people want to watch or listen to the next episodes.In the Americas, soap operas tend to focus on characters with wealthy lifestyles, whereas in the UK and Australia, they tend to be based on the lives of working class people. In both cases, storylines are based around family life, relationships, moral issues and sometimes topical issues. Romance and secret relationships feature 37 , and these can be compared to those of the old style paperback romance 38 . Plots can often move into weird areas, such as in an episode of US soap Dallas, where in order to bring back a ‘dead’ character, it was shown that a(n) 39 season had all been a dream of one of the characters. Perhaps not as strange as an Australian soap which had one 40 showing a male dog dreaming about the female dog from next door!III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Instead of cruising in on a hoverboard, I rode my bike to the office today. The bicycle was invented in the 19th century. Instead of taking a pill for breakfast, I had a bacon roll, cooked using gas. Science fiction has41 to us.Making predictions is tricky, especially about the future, as physicist Niels Bohr joked. In science fiction, you can’t escape that42 , though. Since its birth in the 19th century, writers have 43 imagined the things to come: devices that humankind will invent to make life easier. But in so many instances, those promises have not come to pass. The biggest 44 are in travel-jet packs, hoverboards and flying cars are yet to fill the skies. Air travel has become significantly cheaper and wide-reaching, but only using distinctly20th-century technology: commercial aeroplanes are much the same as they were 50 years ago.45 is what science fiction frequently delivers, but its arrival in the real world has been unpredictable. Domestic robots with a degree of intelligence are yet to 46 , though robotic vacuum cleaners are commercially available-even if they are fairly hopeless. Video calls have now arrived-sort of-but conferencing on Skype is still dissatisfying. In mobiles, video call technology is now available, so when your dad rings to update yo u on his vegetable patch, he’ll be able to47 your look of boredom.The truth is that we quickly 48 the astonishment of invention: our wonderment is soon replaced with the feeling of nothing new. We should try to stay in that period of 49 . It is astonishing that the contents of every book ever written can be stored in a small box. Or that you can carry 10,000 albums on an object kept in your pocket. Or that almost all the information in the world can be accessed almost anywhere at any time. All these 50 are dependent on the emergence of the microchip and its place in computers. Yet sci-fi didn’t51 the dominance of the computer in running our lives.But the real area where 52 far outstrips predictions is medicine. Sure, fiction would describe humans as ‘disease-free’ but without going into detail. “Disease-free” humans are still absent, but the progress made in 53 life is breathtaking. With relative ease, we can sequence anyone’s genome (基因组), giving a read-out of our entire genetic code. This means we can find out the underlying genetic cause of thousands of diseases in minutes.Photosensitive implants now exist that can replace damaged cells in the retina (视网膜) and can thus 54 sight to the blind. While the inventions of science fiction can show great ideas we’d like to happen, nothing 55 the inventiveness of people in the real world.41. A. turned B. lied C. objected D. talked42. A. opportunity B. challenge C. imagination D. conflict43. A. hesitantly B. critically C. temporarily D. tirelessly44. A. disappointments B. advancements C. enjoyments D. experiments45. A.

A. quality B. obstacle C. passion D. reality53. A. maintaining B. creating C. researching D. encountering54. A. show B. lend C. restore D. label55. A. guarantees B. overestimates C. releases D. outperformsSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)People always regret asking me and my wife how we got together. It’s a long story, involving other relationships and several countries, and to be honest, it’s not that interesting, so I’ll spare you the details. We were at a restaurant in Tuscany on our summer holiday last year though, when we met another English couple who had a far more interesting story than us. Lynn and Andy had actually met online before they got together, or at least they thought they had. After a few casual conversations through an online dating agency, they decide to meet for real. Lynn arrived at the restaurant first, and shortly after was approached by Andy, who though she was someone else. It turns out they’d both arranged to meet different people, but liked to look of ea ch other, and that was that!And they’re not alone. It seems there are all sorts of places you might meet that special someone. Lukas met Sofie for the first time when, he crashed into her car-on his bicycle. ‘It was raining and I was coming downhill reall y fast, so I couldn’t really see where I was going. Sofie opened her car door and I went straight into it, and off my bike,’ explains Lukas. ‘I was unconscious for a few seconds, and when I came round there was this beautiful young woman asking me “Are you OK?” Well, after that, she went to the hospital with me and was just really kind, really caring, and we hit it off.’Every cloud has a silver lining, so they say, and Nick McKiddie would most likely agree. He was leaving the office late one night when he got robbed by a group of young men. He wasn’t hurt, but they stole his phone and wallet, so he called the police. Susan Harris, a young police officer at the time, attended the call. Nice explains, ‘I don’t know whether I was in shock because of what had h appened, but I think it was love at firstsight. I would never usually be so confident, but I just asked if she wanted to go for a drink sometime, and to my surprise, she said yes!’ Nick and Susan got married last December.Animals don’t have the same soci al inhibitions as humans do, and this was certainly the case when Ri took her dog, Ben, to the local dog park. ‘As soon as I took his head off, he ran straight to another dog on the other side of the park, and started getting very friendly indeed,’ she laughs. ‘I actually had to pull him away, and that was when I met Ben, the other dog’s owner. We had a good laugh about it all, especially when we realized he had the same name as my dog. We became friends after that, and well, the rest is history.’56. According to the passage, Lynn and Andy .A. first met in a restaurant in TuscanyB. regretted talking to each other onlineC. were arranged to see other people at firstD. preferred casual conversations to real meeting57. got to know each other due to an accident.A. The author and his wifeB. Lukas and SofieC. Nick and SusanD. Ri and Ben58. By “every cloud has a silver lining” (in paragraph 3), the author means that.A. every day is good beginningB. good luck comes with misfortunesC. what you value matters in your lifeD. people do not always behave as usual59. What is the passage mainly about?A. The methods of joining animals and us.B. The place where people get together.C. The weird ways people meet.D. The special cases of dating.(B)Memory expert Professor Jemima Gryaznov answers your most common questions about memory.1.We remember the things that have strong connections in our mind, especially emotional connections. Childhood memories are often very emotional: we experience things for the first time so we have strong feeling of fear or excitement. Retelling events also helps to fix them in our memories and interesting or funny stories from our childhood are often told again and again!2. Do some people really have a photographic memory?It is well know that some people have an extraordinary memory. Daniel Tammet, for example, can remember the first 22,500 digits of pi and Stephen Wiltshire can draw a detailed picture of a city from memory after flying over it in a helicopter. However, neither Daniel nor Stephen have a photographic memory. They are good at remembering particular things for a limited time. A person with a photographic memory could remember every detail of a picture, a book or an event many years later. No one has yet proved that they have a photographic memory in a scientific test.3. Is computer memory better than human memory?That depends on what you mean by ‘better’! Information in a compu ter is stored in separate pieces. Human memory is stored in a different way. Each piece of information is connected to many other pieces. That’s why a particular smell can bring back memories of a holiday or a person. The problem with human memory is that it is messy and not very accurate. The problem with computer memory is that it can’t make connections between pieces of information-it isn’t creative.4. I’m 24. Is my memory getting worse?Not yet, but it will do soon. Our memory reaches its full power at the age of 25. At that point we can remember up to 200 pieces of information a second. After this age, however, the brain starts to get smaller. By the age of 40 we are losing 10,000 brain cells every day. By middle age our memory is significantly worse than when we were young.5. Is it possible to remember early childhood?Scientists used to believe that it was impossible to remember very early childhood, but recent research shows that babies are much cleverer than we previously thought. Some people really can remember being a baby. Other, however, remember nothing before the age of five or even ten!60. Which of the following questions best fits the blank in the passage?A. What can we do to improve our memory as we grow older?B. Can childhood memories help us remember what has happened recently?C. How do we establish emotional connections with our childhood experiences?D. Why can I remember events in my childhood but not what happened last week?61. What can we learn about photographic memory?A. There is no reliable evidence that it exists.B. It enables us to remember details in a limited time.C. We cannot acquire it without specialized training.D. Only some of us can benefit from it.62. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Information is separately stored in human memory.B. Human memory declines as the brain gets smaller.C. Computer memory is better than human memory from any perspective.D. Whether we can remember our early childhood needs more scientific research.(C)Over the last 15 years, digital communication has brought in more changes than the printing press did in 1570. And those most likely to use them in this world are teenagers, whose brains appear to have an extraordinary capacity to adapt to the world around them, according to Dr Jay Giedd, an adolescent brain expert.We are now discovering that, as a species, our brains during the teenage years are still flexible and capable of adapting. Having a more flexible brain means that certain parts of it, such as impulse control and the ability to make long-term decisions, haven’t developed yet, which may also explain why, unlike some of our ancestors, we spend an extended period living under the protection of our parents rather than leaving home at the age of 12 or 13.This also means that the teenage brain can adapt to new technology, enabling teenagers to keep up with the increasing pace of digital technology and giving them an advantage when it comes to multitasking.In the US, on average teenagers spend 8.5 hours a day using computers, mobiles, and other devices to learn, interact, and play. This increases to 11.5 hours if you include all of the multitasking that goes on, such as talking on the phone while you’re watching TV. As they stare at these screens, they’re taking in and sorting through an incredible amount of information.There are concerns about how social media id affecting the way in which the brain learns to socialize, as one of the most important skills that we learn as children is how to make friends and interact with people around us. Geidd says that a lot of what goes on inside our brains is social. Social interactions are now being changed by technology-you could have hundreds of friends, all of whom are real people that you interact with and scientists aren’t sure whether we’ll be able to develop the same skills using social media.There is an advantage of the growing digital trend: YouTube indicates that teenagers all over the world are watching the same video clips and laughing at the same jokes, indicating that they are more global-minded than teenagers in the past.They may be keen on texting their friends and posting updates on social media sites, but teenagers today are probably going to have access to technology and as a result social and educational opportunities that anyone with a less flexible brain may have trouble imagining. However, there is a cut-off point, and by the age of 30, our brains have become more set in their ways, making it harder for us adapt and cope with new technologies.63. What does “this” (in paragraph 3) refer to?A. Teenagers’ brains are different from ancestors’.B. Teenagers’ brains haven’t fully developed.C. Teenagers still need parents’ protection.D. Teenagers are more flexible than adults.64. According to the passage, the growing digital trend does good to .A. the development of globalizationB. the flexibility of teenagers’ brainsC. people’s access to technologyD. children’s ability to interact with others65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Ways to socialize haven’t changed despite the emergence of social media.B. Adolescents’ brains have lost some abilities necessary for survival.C. Being keen on digital communication does more harm than good.D. Many educational opportunities now come with technology.66. Which of the following might be the best title if the passage?A. Teenage Brains in the Digital WorldB. Digitalization: An Unavoidable TrendC. The Future of the Digital CommunicationD. How Parents Can Help Kids in the Digital AgeSection CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. They have to be king of the road and everybody else on the road is an idiot.B. So what’s the point of these jokes?C. Interestingly, one of their main concerns is about women as passengers.D. There is no doubt that women are considered better passengers than men.E. According to the report, women score more highly than men on almost all counts.F. Why do we laugh at these jokes?Driving each other crazyThere’s a well-known joke: A woman is driving down a motorway and her husband phones her on her mobile. ‘Darling, be careful!’ he screams, ‘I’ve just heard there’s a car driving the wrong way on the motorway near where you are.’ ‘It’s not just one car,’ she says, ‘there are hundreds of them!’And here’s another one: a man is driving his daughter and they are stuck in traffic. The little girl says, ‘I hav e a question.’ ‘What is it?’ asks her father. ‘When you’re driving, are YOU ever the stupid idiot?’67 Is it because we recognize some truth in them? A lot of people seem to think that men and women do display quite different characteristics when it comes to driving, and in general, both male and female drivers tend to be quite critical of the opposite sex.‘Men are too confident in their own abilities. They never listen, they never need a map. They’re always sure they know the way,’ says Cathy, whose husband rarely lets her drive the car. ‘They tend to drive too close to the car in front and they’re incredibly impatient. If there’s a car in front, they have to pass it even if it doesn’t make a difference to their overall speed. I think it’s some sort of territorial thing. 68 ’.What do men think about women? 69 ‘Women passengers can’t keep quiet,’ says Paul, a retired architect. ‘You know: “You’re going too fast”, “Can you see that pedestrian?”, “Didn’t you see that traffic light?” or “I feel sick. Can’t you go straight?” There’s always some comment.’Despite men’s generally high opinion of their own driving skills, a report published in 2004 came down firmly in favour of women drivers. 70 These include driving within the speed limits, overtaking safely and conducting different strategies successfully, including signaling in good time, reversing and braking quickly. They also had a better awareness of other drivers on the road. There was only one aspect of driving where women did not perform as successfully as men and that was-no surprise-the ability to park their cars.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.Are you a textaholic?Do you spend over an hour each day texting your friends? Do you frequently neglect work, study and leisure activities to check your phone for text messages? Are you moody and emotional if you are separated from your mobile phone? Do you hardly ever use your phone to talk any more, and do your thumbs from texting too much?If you answered ‘Yes’ to any of the above questions, then the chances are that you are a textaholic. A textaholic can be defined as someone who is addicted to sending and receiving text messages. The main symptoms are a strong will to text which takes precedence over everything else, and withdrawal symptoms if messages fail to come in, leading to anger, depression and a lack of self-respect. Other problems include sleeplessness, eye strain, and repetitive strain injury due to constant messaging, not to mention expensive phone bills. The root of the problem, as with many addictions, is the desire to escape from emotional difficulties such as stress, anxiety and relationship problems. Experts warn that text addiction is likely to become the most common form of addiction in the future, especially among the young.So what can you do if you think you may be a textaholic? The key is to get your life back in balance. Make sure you resist the urge to answer every message you receive, and consider leaving your mobile phone behind occasionally when you go out. Most importantly, make a point of spending quality time with friends and family, and make time to re-learn the art of face-to face conversation instead of conducting your relationships by means of text messages. Not only will you save time and money, but you may also rediscover the pleasure of the true communication.V.

The children often asked him to tell them some stories and his life in Africa.One day a few children asked him to tell them something about the animals in Africa. He told them how he fought with the tigers and elephants. His stories surprised them all and some policemen and workers went to listen to him. It made him happier. Just a man who taught geography in a middle school passed there. He stopped to listen to him for while and then said, “Could you please tell us a rare animal, sir?”“Certainly,” said Mr. Turner. “One day I met a rhinoceros (犀牛) by a river…”“Please wait a minute, sir,” said the man. “There aren’t any rhinoceros in Africa at all!”“It’s rare just because there aren’t any!”6.

Wide spread use of written language would not have been possible without some cheap and practical material to write on. The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed and distributed. Together with the printing press, paper provided an extremely important way to communicate knowledge.How much paper do you use every year? Probably you cannot answer that question quickly. In 1900 the world’s use of paper was about one kilogram for each person a year. Now some countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person a year. Countries like the United States, England and Sweden use more paper than other countries.Paper, like many other thins that we use today, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400. The Egyptians wrote on a kind of material made of a water plant. Europeans used Parchment for many hundreds of years. Parchment was very strong; it was made form the skin of certain young animals. We have learnt of the most important facts of European history from records that were kept on parchment.11. What’s the meaning for the word “parchment”?________A. The skin of young animals.B. A kind of paper made from the skin of certain young animals.C. The paper used by European countries.D. The paper of Egypt.12. Which of the following is not mentioned about the invention of paper?_______A. More jobs could be provided than before.B. More people could be educated than before.C. More books could be printed and distributed.D. More ways could be used to exchange knowledge.13. When did the Egyptians begin to use paper widely?________A. Around 1400B. Around 1900C. Around 400D. Around 900.14. Which of the following countries uses more paper for each person a year?_____A. China.B. Sweden.C. Egypt.D. Japan.15. What is the main idea of this short talk?_______A.

Teenagers' growth experiences.BFor some people,October is Octobear.On October 5, Katmai National Park and Preserve in southern Alaska kicked off Fat Bear Week, when fans compare before and after photos of bears to vote for the one they think has gained the most weight before they bed down for the long freezing winter. Bear747,also known as“Bear Force One”,took the first-place spot with 68,105 votes. It weighed around 1,400 pounds.Fat Bear Week started in 2014. At first,it was just Fat Bear Tuesday. Mike Fitz,a former park keeper at Katmai,noticed that live webcams showing the bears generated a lot of online comments, so he let people vote for their favorite fat bear on the Internet. The one-day event attracted 1,700 votes. In 2015, it was extended to a week. Last year, nearly 800,000 people got involved,turning it into a global campaign.The contest serves two main purposes. First, some of America's national parks are in remote and undeveloped areas, which are difficult or costly toreach. Fat Bear Week brings Alaska's wilderness to fans' computer screens.“It's not limited to the fortunate few who can go to the river anymore.”Fitz said.Second,Fat Bear Week brings attention to the bears and the ecosystems they live in. The 2，200 bears of Katmai are strong for feeding on some of the healthiest salmon （三文鱼）in the world，said Sara Wolman， a former park keeper. Salmon in the Pacific Northwest are suffering from overfishing, dam construction and warming rivers due to climate change. Luckily, Brooks River, which Katmai’s bears like to fish in,has been free from these threats so far.Fat Bear Week has spread like viruses. Fans and creators say it's because it shows a conservation success story. For one week, Ieople don't have to focus on climate change or habitat loss.“Maybe things aren't super great all the time in the world,”said Felicia Jimenez,who is a current Katmai keeper.“But there are some really fat bears in Alaska.”24. Why was Bear 747 the winner？A. It was the heaviest.B.It was the most famous.C. It gained the most pounds.D. It presented the best photos.25. What is the purpose of paragraph 2？A.To praise Mike Fitz for his workB. To review the history of the event.C. To show the popularity of fat bears.D. To explain the role of live webcams.26. What can we learn about Katmai's bears？A. They bring tourists to the park.B. They have a stable food source.C. They remain difficult to be seen.D.They face a population decline.27. Which can be the best title for the text？A. Fat Bear Week：Conservation Is JoyfulB. Brown Bears：Winter Survival Is CrucialC. Bear 747：A Fat Yet Healthy ChampionD. Katma's Bears:A Special Beauty ContestCA new study has found that a child's reading speed can be improved by simply increasing the space between letters within a piece of text. The research,led by Dr Steven Stagg of Anglia Ruskin University(ARU),examined the benefits of letter spacing and coloured overlays（颜色标注）among children.Two groups of children，dyslexic（有阅读障碍的）and non-dyslexic children，were asked to read four texts with either standard or extra-large letter spacing,both with and without a coloured overlay. They were instructed to read the text out loud while being recorded. The recording was used to measure the number of errors they made —specifically missed words,added words,wrong words,and pronunciation—as well as the participants'reading time.The study discovered that text with increased space between letters provided a benefit for both groups. On average,the dyslexia group showed a 13% increase in reading speed,while the group of non-dyslexic children showed a 5% increase. In addition to improving reading speed, it also resulted in a significant decline in the number of words missed by the children with dyslexia. However, the study found that coloured overlays had no significant impact on reading speed or the reduction of errors for either group.Dr Stagg，Senior Lecturer in Psychology at ARU，said：“We believe extra-large letter spacing works by reducing what is known as the 'crowding effect',which can hamper the recognition of letters and reduce reading speed.”“Our findings strongly suggest that teachers can be confident that all children would be helped by increased letter spacing in reading materials.”Dr Stagg added.“While we found that coloured overlays provided little benefit, we suggest children should be encouraged to use overlays if they find these help their reading. Coloured overlays may not increase reading speeds，but they may extend reading stamina（持久力）.Previous research suggests their benefits may not become apparent if reading time is less than 10 minutes and the short reading duration of the tests in our study may have put coloured overlays at a disadvantage.”28. Which of the following best describes the research process in paragraph 2？A. Illustrate,group and report.B. Read,instruct and measure.C. Question,assume and prove.D. Categorize,record and count.29. What can we learn about increased letter spacing from paragraph 3？A. It reduces reading errors.B. It sharpens reading skills.C. It arouses reading interestD. It enhances reading comprehension.30. What does the underlined word“hamper”in paragraph 4 probably mean？A.Obtain.B. Prevent.C. Change.D.Involve.31. What can be inferred about coloured overlays from paragraph 5?A. They might not have been evaluated fairly.B. They might not be recommended by experts.C. They might work better in short reading.D. They might have some disadvantages.DLike any doctor,Jacques Fellay wants to give his patients the best care. Hidden inside our bodies are genetic（基因的）markers that can tell him which patients could probably have diseases such as AIDS and provide early treatments. However,there are worries for Fellay：they contain sensitive details that could lead to embarrassment，discrimination or even worse.A new kind of encryption，fully homomorphic encryption（FHE）（全同态加密），is making it possible for data users to run multiple operations on genetic data without seeing the contents. This can help end big data's privacy problem,and Fellay's patients can be some of the first to benefit.In 1978,the concept of homomorphic encryption(HE)was firstly proposed. According to it, one could encrypt and share data with others, who could analyze and perform calculations on the data with no idea what it means. After getting the data back, the data user could simply arrive at the result using the secret key and it will make total sense.In 2009,Craig Gentry firstly provided a workable FHE program. Like HE,it rests on a mathematical idea called a homomorphism，which mostly relies on using algebra （代数）to map data from one form to another without changing its underlying structure. However, it supports multiple operations on encrypted data,rather than only one calculation in HE.Later,Gentry went on to work at IBM,which now has complicated FHE tools to run encrypted data. In the medical field, for example,it detected signs of COVID-19 infection by applying FHE to analyze the encrypted CT scans of more than 1,500 people's lungs. In a paper published in October 2021,the team used FHE to collect data from multiple sources and predicted the effect of cancer treatments or the process of HIV infection,as in Fellay's case.Workable，but still slow：calculations on the FHE-encrypted data could take millions of times longer than those on raw data. But, as Goldwasser says,“If you believe that security is not a plus,but it's a must,”she says,“then in some sense there is no overhead."32.What is Fellay concerned about？A. Serious diseases.B. Sensitive patients.C. The safety of personal data.D. The lack of genetic information.33. In what way is FHE different from HE？A. It speeds up the analyses.B. It allows more calculations.C. It prevents direct access to data.D. It depends on the use of algebra.34. What is Goldwasser's attitude towards FHE?A. Contradictory.B. Unclear.C. Favorable.D. Intolerant.35. What is the main idea of the text？A. FHE protects privacy in the big data era.B.FHE opens a new world for medical workers.C. Gentry proposed a new encryption technology.D. Homomorphic encryption developed over time.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。

2024年全国医学博士英语统一考试模拟测试卷2024 National Medical Doctorate English Unified Examination Mock Test PaperSection 1: Reading ComprehensionRead the following passage and answer the questions that follow.The Importance of VaccinesVaccines are one of the greatest inventions in medical history. They have played a crucial role in the prevention and control of infectious diseases. Vaccines work by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies to fight off harmful viruses and bacteria. By doing so, vaccines help to protect individuals from getting sick and prevent the spread of diseases within communities.Vaccines have been responsible for the eradication of smallpox and the near-elimination of diseases such as polio, measles, and rubella. Vaccines have saved millions of lives and prevented countless cases of disability and suffering. They have also been instrumental in reducing healthcare costs associated with treating preventable diseases.Despite the overwhelming evidence of the benefits of vaccines, there are still individuals and groups who are hesitant or opposed to vaccination. Some concerns about vaccines include their safety, side effects, and the ingredients used in their production. It is important for healthcare professionals to address these concerns and provide accurate information to help individuals make informed decisions about vaccination.It is crucial that we continue to support vaccination efforts to protect the health of individuals and communities. By getting vaccinated, we not only protect ourselves but also contribute to the overall public health.Questions:1. What is the main purpose of vaccines?2. Name one disease that has been eradicated by vaccines.3. Why are some individuals hesitant to get vaccinated?4. What role do healthcare professionals play in addressing concerns about vaccines?5.

示例[A] [B] [C] [D]11-15 BCADB 16-20 DCBBD 21-25 BAABCPassage 1Community service is an important component of education here at our university. We encourage all students to volunteer for at least one community activity before they graduate. A new community program called “One On One” helps elementary students who’ve fallen behind. Your education majors might be especially interested in it because it offers the opportunity to do some teaching, that is, tutoring in math and English.You’d have to volunteer two hours a week for one semester. You can choose to help a child with math, English, or both. Half-hour lessons are fine, so you could do a half hour of each subject two days a week.Professor Dodge will act as a mentor to the tutor s —he’ll be available to help you with lesson plans or to offer suggestions for activities. He has office hours every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. You can sign up for the program with him and begin the tutoring next week.I’m sure you’ll enjoy thi s community servic e …and you’ll gain valuable experience at the same time. It looks good on your resume, too, showing that you’ve had experience with children and that you care about your community. If you’d like to sign up, or if you have any questions, stop by Professor Dodge’s office this week. (220 words)11. What is the purpose of the talk? ____________A. To explain a new requirement for graduation.B. To interest students in a new community program.C. To discuss the problems of elementary school students.D.

They had planned either to live in a furnished apartment or to buy used furniture. But they soon learned about a new system that more and more people are using. The renting of home furnishings (bed, tables, dishes, and so on) has become one of America’s fastest growing businesses.What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them? People who are international business or government officials, foreign students, airline workers, young married couple – people whose job or business may force them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new homes. Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture that they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things. But usually people don’t like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think. (248words)16. Which of the following has become one of America’s fastest growing businesses? ____________A. Selling home furnishings.B. Renting furnished apartments.C. Selling used furniture.D. Renting home furnishings.17. Why do some people prefer to rent furniture? ____________A. Because the furniture they get in this way is new.B. Because it saves them a lot of money.C. Because it saves them much trouble and money.D. Because they can always get better quality furniture in this way.18. What can you infer from the passage? ____________A. The idea of renting furniture is not acceptable.B. Renting furniture is not popular in the couple’s home town.。
