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 the20th century.Von Neumann really was a legend in his own time,and there are a number of stories about him.His driving ability is a part of his legend.He reported one accident this way:“I was driving down the road.The trees on the right werepassing me in an orderly fashion at60miles per hour.Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.”4.According to the text,von Neumann's father believed that.A.a mathematician couldn't earn a lot of moneyB.a mathematician needed a good memoryC.von Neumann had the ability to learn two subjects at the same timeD.von Neumann had the gift for solving problems at a high speed5.Von Neumann published his first book at the age of.A.25B.26C.29D.326.How did World WarⅡaffect John von Neumann?A.He realized the importance of engineering.B.He began to research how to put mathematics into practice.C.He left college and served at the government department.D.He lost interest in chemistry.7.From the last paragraph,we can infer John von Neumann was.A.calmB.braveC.intelligentD.humorousCEvery March,the country celebrates the achievements of women in American history.Even though these achievements go back a long way,most schools didn't start focusing on women pioneers and their achievements until recently.Today,most schools teach kids about the many contributions women have made to our country.How did this change come about?On March19,1911,a German woman named Clara Zetkin organized the very first International Women's Day.Inspired by American working women,the event took on the causes of peace in an effort to end World War I as well as women's rights.However,people's interest in International Women's Day still dwindled over the years.It gained momentum(势头)again in the1960's when the women's movement caused women to wonder why they weren't included in the history books.By the1970s,more female historians began to look back at women's contributions in history.In1978,a California school district started Women's History Week to promote the teaching of women's history.School officials picked the week of March8to include International Women's Day.It was so popular that,in1981,Congress passed a resolution,making the week a celebration for the entire country.The concept of studying women's history continued to grow in popularity.In1987,a group of women asked Congress to expand the celebration.That same year,Congress declared the entire month of March National Women's History Month.Today,schools and communities across the country celebrate the month with special lessons and activities designed to teach the ways women have helped shape the US.The women who have worked hard to make Women's History Month a reality would like to see women's history studied all year,not just every March.In1996,the National Women's History Museum was founded.It is a commonweal(公益)organization dedicated to preserving and celebrating thevarious historic contributions of women.The organization is working with Congress to open a permanent(永久的)museum site in Washington D.C.8.What was ignored in school education in the past according to the text?A.Popularizing American history.B.Introducing the history of World War I.C.Sharing Americans'global contributions.D.Teaching about American women's achievements.9.Which of the following can replace the underlined word“dwindled” in Paragraph2?A.Started.B.Survived.C.Decreased.pleted.10.What is mainly discussed in Paragraph3?A.How Women's History Month became a reality.B.How women were included in the history books.C.Why women's history should be taught at school.D.Why women's contributions should be honored in history.11.Which correctly describes the National Women's History Museum?A.It was founded by Clara Zetkin.B.It was confirmed by Congress.C.It is a non-profit organization.D.It is a museum in Washington D.C.DAge has never been a problem for16-year-old Thessalonika Arzu-Embry. After all,she's already got her master's degree.The North Chicago-area teen started homeschooling at the age of4.She began having an influence on others soon.When she was6years old,she was an inspirational speaker at an organization called Tabitha House Community Service,a shelter for people who were forced to leave their homes due to the situations such as the earthquake,flood and other natural disasters.At the age of11,she graduated from high school and then earned her bachelor's degree in psychology in2013.She completed those classes online as she was traveling for church events and leadership meetings.She doesn't stop there,though.The teen plans to focus on aviation psychology(航空心理学)for her further study,a decision inspired by her father who is a pilot.She grew up around airplanes.Her goal is to use it to determine whether pilots are dealing with problems that could cause deadly results once the plane takes off—a topic that has been in the news lately.For her,it's a mix of two interests.In her free time,Thessalonika enjoys playing tennis,swimming and being active in her youth group at church.She also has three self-published books, which are on her site.Jump the Education Barrier is written to help students finish college,and In the Future aims to help business owners with trends.Herthird book,The Genius Race,has a wider appeal.It is designed to help people to be geniuses in various areas of life.12.What can we know about Thessalonika?A.When she was6years old,she started homeschooling.B.She gained her master's degree at the age of11.C.She majored in science and technology.D.In2013she got her bachelor's degree through completing courses online.13.What is Thessalonika's next plan according to the passage?A.Major in aviation psychology.B.Deliver inspiring speeches for church events and leadership meetings.C.Be active in her youth group at church.D.Write another book to help people to be geniuses.14.Why does Thessalonika write the book Jump the Education Barrier?A.To help people to be geniuses.B.To give students a hand to complete college.C.To arouse people's interest in psychology.D.To share her own experience with others.15.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.The Story of ThessalonikaB.To be a GeniusC.Three Published BooksD.Homeschooling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。

When he was about three months old, Elizabeth noticed something odd.The flash on their digital camera created the typical red dot in the center of Noah’s left eye, but the right eye had a white spot at the center, almost as if the flash was being reflected back at the camera by something. When Elizabeth took Noah to an eye doctor, Noah was diagnosed with retinal (视网膜) cancer with the white reflection as a sign. He endured months of treatment, but it was too late.Noah’s cancer is treatable if caught early. Bryan Shaw wondered whether there were signs he’d missed. He went back over every baby picture of Noah he could find and discovered the first white spot in a photo taken when Noah was 12 days old. As time went on, it appeared more frequently. “By the time he was four months old, it was showing up in 25percent of the pictures taken of him per month,” Bryan recalled.Later, Bryan was determined to put his hard-won insights to good use. He created a database that recorded the cancer’s appearance in every photo of Noah. He also collected photos and compiled the data from eight other children with the same cancer. Armed with that data, hebegan to work with colleagues to develop a smartphone app that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for white eye and can be used as a kind of ophthalmoscope (眼底镜). Called White Eye Detector, it is now available for free on Google Play and in Apple’s Apple Store.“I just kept telling myself, I really need to do this,” Bryan said. “This disease is tough to detect. Not only could this software save vision, but it can save lives.”4.Why did Bryan and Elizabeth take pictures of Noah?A.To record his growth.B.To celebrate his birth.C.To test their digital camera.D.To collect evidence of eye diseases.5.Which word can best describe Bryan’s feelings in paragraph 3?A.Terrified.B.Regretful.C.Lonely.D.Exhausted. 6.What can the app do to help?A.It serves as a detector.B.It presents expert advice.C.It saves photos on users’ phones.D.It provides a worldwide database.7.What is the text mainly about?A.How a boy lost his eye.B.How a new app works.C.How a father saved his son.D.How an app came into being.Sora, a new AI model developed by the company OpenAI — creator of chatbot ChatGPT — has recently become a global focus. The text-to-video artificial intelligence technology has the potential to make a revolution in video industries.Sora can generate videos up to a minute long while maintaining visual quality and respond to user prompts, OpenAI said. It is able to generate complex scenes with multiple characters, specific types of motion, and accurate details of the subject and background.Liu Xingliang, director of the Beijing-based Data Center of China Internet, said Sora isundoubtedly a major breakthrough for AI. “It not only demonstrates AI’s advanced ability to understand and create complex visual content, but also brings about opportunities and challenges for video content creation, entertainment, film and television production industries. The video-generation model will help video content creators to turn their ideas into reality at a faster speed and at a lower cost, and offer audiences richer and more diverse visual experiences,” Liu said, adding that AI is expected to play a more important role in all aspects of human lives in the future.Meanwhile, the use of text-to-video AI models raises concerns about ethics, copyright protection, personal privacy and data security, experts said. How to ensure the authenticity and transparency of the content has become an important issue, and more efforts are needed to formulate rules and regulations to ensure the healthy development of such technology.Zhou Hongyi, founder of Chinese company 360 Security Group, said: “Sora might bring a huge disruption to the advertising industry, movie trailers and short video industry, but it may not necessarily beat TikTok quickly. It is more likely to become a creative tool for TikTok.”8.According to the text, what is the possible function of Sora?A.Writing an essay.B.Drawing an image.C.Generating a movie.D.Composing a song.9.How does Sora bring opportunities to video content industries?A.By reducing the time of making a video.B.By adding the cost of making a video.C.By offering audiences a single visual experience.D.By helping the creators copy other’s ideas.10.What is the main idea of paragraph 4?A.The significance of Sora.B.The potential risks of Sora.C.The working principles of Sora.D.The functions of Sora.11.Which statement does Zhou Hongyi agree with?A.Sora is important in all aspects of human lives.B.Sora will replace the traditional video industry.C.Sora poses huge risks to TikTok.D.Sora is a double-edged sword.One of the most traditional British holidays is the “seaside holiday”. Typically, families get on a train or into a car and travel to British seaside towns. They sunbathe on the beach, buy ice creams, eat fish and chips, build sandcastles and so on.In the early 1970s, air travel became affordable for the average family in the UK, and more and more British people started travelling abroad for their summer holidays. After all, the British weather isn’t very good, even in summer, so a lot leave the UK for a vacation. Particularly popular with families on a budget is the “package holiday”, where the cost of flights and accommodation are offered as one discounted price by travel agents.In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in the UK became more wealthy, or at least had more disposable income. As a result, young people started to go abroad in groups, to places such as Spain and Greece. Once at their destination, they socialized with other groups of young people and had one long party.British holidaying habits have begun to change, however, climate change means that the UK now has a warmer climate than before, so people don’t always feel they need to go overseas to find good weather. Also, the world seems a less certain place as interconnected economics rise and fall, which means that the cost of foreign holidays is less predictable than it used to be. As a result, more and more Britons are choosing to spend their summer holidays in the UK.In the UK, the domestic (国内的) tourism industry--when people go on holiday in their own country--is healthier than it has been in decades. There is now an increased appreciation among Britons for the diversity of the UK. It is not just the geography and the diversity of climate-based activities on offer. It’s also the diversity of the cultures in the UK that is beginning to be of interest to domestic tourists.The UK has always been famous for its international explorers, but now it is starting to discover itself.12.What mainly caused Britons travel abroad for holidays in the early 1970s?A.The bad weather in the UK.B.The lower cost of flights.C.The trend of going overseas.D.The rise of tourism industry.13.What does the underlined word “disposable” mean in paragraph 3?A.easy to handle B.steady in amountC.available for use D.flexible to change14.What can we learn from the passage?A.Climate change has an impact on the change of British holidaying habits.B.Steady interconnected economics encourage more Britons holiday in the UK.C.Package holiday was particularly popular with rich families in the early 1970s.D.Both domestic and international tourists are interested in the diversity of the UK. 15.What’s author’s attitude towards UK’s domestic tourism industry?A.Uncertain.B.Pessimistic.C.Optimistic.D.Objective.Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. 16Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they’ll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.First of all, good talkers ask questions. 17 One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It’s a common question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. 18Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn’t. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. 19 If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he’s really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it’s time for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you’re saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I’ve really enjoyed meeting you.” 20 Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they’ve known you half their life.A.You can become a popular person.B.It’s polite to listen to others with a smile.C.These people have something in common.D.Real listening at least means some things.E.If you want to see that person again, don’t keep it a secret.F.And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.G.Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question.二、完形填空Lots of children want to know what to give their mom for Mother’s Day. Of course, a handsome card is always great, but it can be 21 to come up with that extra something.One day, my friend Ollie and I were discussing what gift is good enough for his 22 Abuela, who is pretty much like a mom to him. Right then, Abuela walked 23 with a tray (托盘) of food. “Sweetie, won’t you join us for lunch? We’re having sandwiches. It’s my speciality.” she said to me. “This is delicious!” I said after taking a 24 and then asked. “Speaking of delicious, what’s the most delicious food you’ve ever eaten?”She thought for a minute. “Well, nothing could 25 the special strawberry ice cream my grandmother made when I was a girl on certain occasion.” We winked at each other, knowing that we had already 26 a Mother’s Day surprise his grandmother would love.Over the next few days, Ollie and I asked everyone we knew if they 27 to have an old-fashioned ice-cream machine hanging around — but no luck. So my dad helped us search for some recipes online, and 28 we found a fun one that didn’t require any fancy 29 , just a couple of empty coffee 30 in different sizes.Mother’s Day finally arrived, we were pretty 31 to make the ice cream. Sitting outside, we all took turns rolling the can 32 we sang the Mother’s Day song for Abuela. We had to roll the can for half an hour, but it was so much 33 ! When the ice cream was finally ready, Abuela was the first to try it. “Mmm! The ice cream you made is even 34 better than I remember!” Abuela smiled from ear to ear.For Mother’s Day, spending time together while we made the ice cream was just as much fun as eating it.

British holidaying habits
In the late 1970s, air travel became
affordable for the average family in the UK,
and more people started travelling abroad for
their summer holidays. After all, the British
weather wasn’t very good, even in summer, so
a lot of people left the country for a vacation.

In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in
the UK became wealthier on average. As a
result, they started to go abroad in groups, to
places such as Spain and Greece. Once they
arrived at their destination, they met with
other groups of young people and had one
long party.

British holidaying habits have begun to
change, however. Climate change means that
the UK now has a hotter climate, so people do
not need to go overseas to find good weather.
Also, going abroad is more expensive. As a
result, more British people are choosing to
spend their summer holidays in the UK.
