12．（8 分）I believe in the power of science fiction， not just for its capacity to transform dreams into
reality， but also for its power to bond together those who share a common vision of the future． For me
， that's true for my relationship with my dad． Some fathers and sons bond over sports， fishing or
hunting， but my dad and I bond over Star Trek． We tried a trip to Disney World， but one of my
earliest memories wasn't Mickey， but a Klingon battle cruiser（巡洋舰）on the screen．
Over the years， nearly every setting and situation has become far away for my dad and me． When
it's warm at night， we're not driving along some dark streets in Indiana， but going at a slow speed
with stars dimly shining． Both of us are thinking of them， without needing to say a word． All these
visions of other universes have together created a private universe for my dad and me．
Gene Rodenberry， creator of Star Trek， once said， "Science fiction is a way of thinking， a way
of logic that bypasses（绕过）a lot of nonsense． It allows people to look directly at important subjects
．" A lifetime of science fiction has influenced more than just my relationship with my dad， but has
also helped me shape my own hopes for the future． I'm now a science writer．
Yes， science fiction has made me into a "nerd" （书呆子）， and it also has been a source of joy
for my family ， making me an optimist while enabling me to think critically about the danger of
technology． Thank those authors who have shared their visions； the world and my family are better for
it． Thank my dad， who is both the best storyteller and the best man I have ever known because he
helped me realize the truth of Tennyson's words， "Since I dipped into the future， I saw the vision of
the world， and all the wonders that would be．"
（1）What is the special bond between the author and his father？
A．Their similar dreams．天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
B．Their love for each other．
C．Their common interest．
D．Their hatred for science．
（2）What does the author mainly show in paragraph 2？

C．His earliest memory of his dad．
D．His good relationship with his dad．
（3）How does science fiction help the author at present？
A．It leads him to pursue a desirable career．
B．It brings him the courage to live better．
C．It helps him solve the danger of technology．
D．It makes him become a source of his family's joy．
（4）What may be the best title for the text？
A．The Wonders of Science
B．The Power of Science Fiction
C．The Versions of Science Fiction
D．The Time together with My Father
13．（8 分）If plastic had been invented when the Pilgrims sailed from Plymouth， England， to North
America ﹣ and their Mayflower had been stocked with bottled water and plastic﹣wrapped snacks，
their plastic waste would likely still be around four centuries later． Atlantic waves and sunlight would
have worn all that plastic into tiny bits． And those bits might still be f loating around the world's oceans
today， waiting to be eaten by some fish or oyster， and finally perhaps by one of us．
Because plastic wasn't invented until the late 19th century， and its production only really took off
around 1950，we have a mere 9.2 billion tons of the stuff to deal with． Of that， more than 6.9 billion
tons have become waste． And of that waste， a surprising 6.3 billion tons never made it to a recycling
bin ﹣ the figure that shocked the scientists who published the numbers in 2017．
No one knows how much unrecycled plastic waste ends up in the ocean， the earth's last sink． In
2015， Jenna Jambeck， a University of Georgia engineering professor， caught everyone's attention
with a rough estimate： between 5.3 million and 14 million tons of plastic waste each year just come 天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
from coastal regions．
Meanwhile， ocean plastic is estimated to kill millions of marine（海洋的）animals every year．
Nearly 700 species， including endangered ones， are known to have been affected by it． Some are
harmed visibly， stuck by abandoned things made of plastic． Many more are probably harmed invisibly
． Marine species of all sizes， from zooplankton to whales， now eat microplastics， the bits smaller
than one﹣fifth of an inch across．
"This isn't a problem where we don't know what the solution is，" says Ted Siegler， a Vermont
resource economist who has spent more than 25 years working with developing nations on garbage．
"We know how to pick up garbage． Anyone can do it． We know how to deal with it． We know how
to recycle．" It's a matter of building the necessary institutions and systems， he says， ideally before
the ocean turns into a thin soup of plastic．
（1）Why does the author mention the Pilgrims in paragraph 1？
A．To prove plastic was difficult to invent．
B．To introduce what marine animals like eating．
C．To tell the Pilgrims contributed a lot to the marine protection．
D．To show plastic waste has a lasting effect on the ocean．
（2）What's the main trouble marine animals face according to the text？
A．Lacking protection．
B．Being stuck by plastics．
C．Being caught by humans．
D．Treating plastics as food．
（3）What does Ted Siegler want to tell us in the last paragraph？
A．Some people don't know the solution of plastics waste．
B．Plastics will turn the ocean into a soup of plastic．
C．It's time to take measures to deal with plastic waste．
D．People should avoid using plastics to protect the ocean．
（4）From which is the text probably taken？
A．A biology textbook．
B．A travel brochure．天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
C．An environmental report．
D．A lifestyle magazine．
14．（8 分）A study found wireless signals are able to pass through bags and suitcases to judge the sizes of
dangerous metal objects and identify them． "These items could include weapons， chemicals， laptops
and batteries for bombs，" the research team said on Tuesday．
Research suggested that Wi﹣Fi can now be used to estimate the volume of liquids such as water，
acid， alcohol and other chemicals for explosive material． The study led by researchers at the Wireless
Information Network Laboratory（WINLAB）in the School of Engineering showed a wireless device
with two to three antennas（天线）that could be fitted in existing Wi﹣Fi networks．
The detection system analyzes what happens when wireless signals go through and bounce off
objects or materials． The approach， which the paper states， works by separating the wireless
interference（干扰）caused by two factors of objects ﹣ the material and shape． "Most dangerous
objects such as weapons are usually metal or liquid， which have significant interference，" researchers
said．
When it was tested on a backpack， the accuracy rate topped 95 percent． "But the accuracy dropped
to about 90 percent when objects inside bags are wrapped． And the tech could save lives if used in
museums， stadiums， theme parks or schools，" the team said， noting its design can inspect bags or
luggage without being an exposure to privacy．
It uses channel state information（CS）that is readily available in low﹣cost Wi﹣Fi devices． "This
could have a great impact on protecting the public from dangerous objects，" said Yingying Chen， a co
﹣author of the study， "There's a growing need for that now． In large public areas， it's hard to set up
expensive screening equipment like what's in airports． Manpower is always needed to check bags and
we want to develop a method to try to reduce manpower．"
The peer﹣reviewed study， which recently won a best paper award at the 2018 IEEE Conference on
Communications and Network Security， is now published online． "Future work will continue to focus
on ameliorating the accuracy of identifying objects and imaging shapes and volumes，" researchers said．
（1）What does paragraph 3 talk about？
A．The function of the technique．
B．The way the device works．天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
C．The principle the study is based on．
D．The benefit of the study findings．
（2）What's the advantage of the device？
A．It saves people in danger of natural disasters．
B．It passes through bags without damaging them．
C．It uses antennas to pick up networks' signals．
D．It protects personal information from being exposed．
（3）Why did the researchers study the device according to Yingying Chen？
A．To save money and labour．
B．To make full use of Wi﹣Fi．
C．To protect passengers' privacy．
D．To research dangerous objects．
（4）Which of the following can replace the underlined word "ameliorating" in the last paragraph？
A．Confirming．
B． Improving．
C．Discovering．
D． Examining．
第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空
白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项．
15．（10 分）You don't need to be a world﹣class mountaineer to stand out in a job interview． Here's my
advice on how to nail the most common interview question．
Most people are so eager to show off what they've been involved in． Don't worry， and there will
be time for that ． The interviewer has reviewed your resume and will ask you plenty about your
expertise． "Tell me about yourself" is a question you're certain to be asked at any job interview．（1）
However， sharing something that shows who you really are beyond a piece of paper is a good idea． It
will allow the interviewer to know something about your life outside of work．
Everyone has something interesting to share about themselves ． I've heard people talk about
everything from being a world﹣class sushi chef to an ice carver．（2） For example， you
participate in competitive sports， you're an accomplished（技艺高超的）pianist and you're writing
your first detective novel． If the information showcases a unique aspect of yourself， and especially if 天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
you can link it to what you can bring to your next job， then go for it．
Another way to think about the question is： "What gets you up every morning？ " The person also
wants to know what your sense of passion and purpose is． That volunteer work on a farm cooperative in
South America， for example， shows you have a global perspective． （3） It doesn't matter
how big or small the accomplishment is， as long as it shows you're struggling to improve yourself．
When people are motivated by contributing to something bigger than themselves ， they get more
satisfaction．
（4） Relax， be yourself and tell the truth． Don't approach the interview like you're trying
out for Broadway． It's more than obvious when someone is trying to memorize their lines and "play the
part"． Also， if you overstate what you've done or fully invent a story about yourself， you'll be
exposed．（5）
A．Take a risk to get personal．
B．Showing honesty is one of the most important things．
C．Running your first 10 kilometers shows you like a challenge．
D．And then everything you say about yourself will be questioned．
E．It's also important to tell it in a way that makes you memorable．
F．Too many people respond to it by giving a recital of their resume．
G．"Tell me about yourself" is an invitation for you to share brief information．
