Mr.Paul was a professor of medicine,who was very strict with the students. Whenever Mr.Paul took the chair on the exam committee,the students would be in fear,because he was seldom pleased with the answers they gave.A student would be lucky enough if he or she could receive a good mark from him.At the end of the term,the students of medicine would take their exam again.Now a student entered the exam room and got seated before the committee.This student was a little nervous as he knew it would not be so easy to get through the exam at all.
Mr.Paul began to ask.The student was required to describe a certain illness,his description of which turned out to be OK.
Then Mr.Paul asked about the cure(药剂) for the illness,and the student,too, answered just as right.
“Good,” said the professor,“and how much will you give the patient?”
“A full spoon,” answered the student.
“Now you may go out and wait for what you can get,” said Mr.Paul.At the same time the committee discussed carefully the answers the student had given.Suddenly the student noticed that there was something wrong with his last answer.“A full spoon is too much,” he thought to himself.Anxiously he opened the door of the room and cried,“Mr.Professor,I’ve made a mistake! A full spoon is too much for the patient.He can take only five drops.”

The Swedish Academy’s mid-October announcement regarding literature seldom fails to cause second-guessing.
Bob Dylan was awarded the big prize this morning,and my social media has been alive with indignation ever since.The Nobel did not go to those excellent novelists but to a “songwriter”.Some of those same people are still protesting(抗议) that last year it was awarded to Svetlana Alexievich,a “journalist”.They have decided,for whatever reasons,that song lyrics(歌词) are not literature.
And people are upset because Bob Dylan is the voice of some generation other than theirs,because he works in a popular idiom,because he does not work in this minute’s popular style,because he appeared on a car commercial that aired during the Super Bowl,because his songwriting skills dropped off—he was famous long ago,after all.
You may not think of Dylan as a poet,but Dylan created a climate in which lyrics were taken seriously.And Dylan accomplished something that few novelists or poets or for that matter songwriters have managed to do in our time:he changed the time he lived.Through words,with music,he affected the opinions and ambitions of hundreds of millions of people all over the world.
The Nobel Prize in Literature cannot ever be all things to all people,and while this year’s award failed to accomplish various possible objectives,it was not in any way misapplied.
28.What does the underlined word “indignation” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Curiosity. B.Happiness.
C.Excitement. D.Anger.
29.Why are people upset about Dylan’s being awarded?
A.He failed to represent any generation.
B.He didn’t have good songwriting skills.
C.He played badly in the Super Bowl.
D.He is not popular any longer.
30.Paragraph 4 mainly focuses on Dylan’s .
A.style B.influence
C.efforts D.ambitions
31.What can we learn from Dylan’s winning the prize?
A.No dish suits all tastes.
B.Great minds think alike.
C.Misfortune may be an actual blessing.
D.Judge not according to the appearance.
语篇解读:本文是议论文。瑞典文学院每年十月中旬公布的文学奖结果几乎无一不引发争议甚至震怒,本文介绍了鲍勃·迪伦获得2016年诺贝尔文学奖后引发的争议。
答案及剖析:
28. 【答案】D
【解析】词义猜测题。从第二段看出,一些人仍在抗议,因为去年的获奖者竟然是一位“记者”,他们认为不管怎样歌词不能算作是文学。可见,人们对授予鲍勃·迪伦诺贝尔文学奖表现出了极大的“愤怒”。
29. 【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。由第三段“he was famous long ago,after all.”可知,人们对鲍勃·迪伦获奖感到不爽,是因为他的盛名只在久远以前,D项与文意相符。根据其他理由“鲍勃·迪伦的声音诉说的不是自己的年代,他的语言风格不符合当前的流行态势,他竟然出现在超级橄榄球比赛期间的汽车广告上”排除另外三项。
30. 【答案】B
【解析】主旨大意题。第四段介绍了鲍勃·迪伦所取得的成就及产生的影响,由“he changed the time he lived.Through words,with music,he affected the opinions and ambitions...”可知。
31. 【答案】A
【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段“The Nobel Prize in Literature cannot ever be all things to all people...”推知,诺贝尔文学奖从来无法满足每个人之所想。A项“众口难调 ”,B项“英雄所见略同”,C项“塞翁失马焉知非福”,D项“不可以貌取人”,A项与文意相符。
D
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is mostly a desert.However,this has not stopped the country from creating great building projects.On September 26,UAE officials announced another ambitious project—Mars Science City.Expansive deserts and miles of coastline provide plenty of options for safe rocket launches (发射).And its position on the Earth makes it especially appealing as the spin of the Earth provides an extra push,meaning less fuel is needed to get payloads into orbit.All these seem to make it possible.
The Mars City Project,designed by Bjarke Ingels Group,or BIG,will provide a realistic model to simulate (模仿) living on the surface of Mars,the red planet.It is part of the UAE’s Mars 2117 Project to lead the global race to land humans on Mars and be the first to build a settlement there.Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid,Prime Minister and ruler of Dubai,says,“The UAE seeks international support to develop technologies that benefit humans,and lay the foundation of a better future for more generations to come.”
Built outside Dubai,the 1.9 million square feet city is expected to cost $135 million.It will consist of several dome-shaped laboratories,similar to the ones imagined for the first Mars settlers.Scientists from around the world will be invited to conduct research to come up with methods to create food,water and energy,using techniques which can be copied onto the red planet.The living spaces,where the researchers can live for up to a year,will simulate the planet’s conditions as much as possible.
The research city will also include a museum featuring famous space achievements to help educate and inspire children to undertake space exploration and discovery.To discover whether the construction method works on Mars,the museum’s walls will be 3D printed using the sand from the nearby desert.Now,if they would only add some living quarters for the general public to experience life on Mars without leaving Earth,life would be perfect.
32.What can we conclude about the United Arab Emirates?
A.It is short of fine weather.
B.It is a nice place for launching.
C.It can provide adequate fuel supply.
D.It has the greatest architects in the world.
33.What will scientists do in the laboratories?
A.Educate visitors on trips to Mars.
B.Develop the Mars settlers’ imagination.
C.Find ways to produce food,water and energy on Mars.
D.Create a climate-controlled environment for future use.
34.Why will the museum’s walls be 3D printed?
A.To show famous space techniques.
B.To make full use of the nearby desert.
C.To inspire children to love exploration.
D.To test building skills used by Mars settlers.
35.What’s the best title for the text?
A.UAE to Build Mars Science City
B.UAE’s Great Exploration of Mars
C.UAE to Build First Mars Settlement
D.UAE’s Scientistific Contribution to Humans

32. 【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。根据文章第一段中Expansive deserts and miles of coastline provide plenty of options for safe rocket launches (发射).And its position on the Earth makes it especially appealing as the spin of the Earth provides an extra push,meaning less fuel is needed to get payloads into orbit.All these seem to make it possible.可知阿拉伯联合酋长国有广阔的沙漠和长长的海岸线,为其进行安全的火箭发射提供可能,因此B正确。
33. 【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第三段中Scientists from around the world will be invited to conduct research to come up with methods to create food,water and energy,using techniques which can be copied onto the red planet.可知科学家实验的内容是找出在火星上制造食物、水和能源的方法,所以 C 正确。
34. 【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第四段中To discover whether the construction method works on Mars,the museum’s walls will be 3D printed using the sand from the nearby
desert.可知墙用3D打印的原因是为了发现这种建造方法在火星上是否适用。
35. 【答案】A
【解析】主旨大意题。此文为新闻报道,新闻报道的主旨大意在文章的第一段,通读文章第一段可以看出文章主要介绍了阿拉伯联合酋长国利用自己的地理优势进行火星科学城建设项目,所以A符合题意。
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。
How to Retain More of Every Book You Read
In recent years,I have focused on building good reading habits and learned how to read more.For most people,the final goal of reading a nonfiction book is to actually improve their life by learning a new skill,understanding an important problem,or looking at the world in a new way.36. With that in mind,I’d like to share three reading comprehension skills that I use to make my reading more productive.
Make all of your notes searchable.Having searchable book notes is important for returning to ideas easily.37. An idea is only useful if you can find it when you need it.There is no need to leave the task of reading comprehension merely up to your memory.
38. When you go to the library,all of the books will be divided into different categories.In the real world,of course,knowledge is not separated into neatly defined boxes.39. For that reason,I try to consider how the book I’m reading is connected with all of the ideas that are already inside my head.Whenever possible,I try to combine the lessons I’m learning with previous ideas.
Summarize the book in one paragraph.40. It forces me to review my notes and consider what is really important about the book.In many cases,I find that I can usually get just as much useful information from reading my one-paragraph summary and reviewing my notes as I would if I read the entire book again.
A.Combine thoughts as you read.
B.All knowledge is interconnected.
C.Describe the book to your friends.
D.Read widely if you want to practice the skills.
E.It increases the chances that you will apply what you read in real life.
F.Once I finish a book,I challenge myself to conclude the text in just three sentences.
G.It’s important to read books,but it is just as important to remember what you read and use it.
