for nonnative learners,none of my classmates had one __3__,to be honest,I found
it extremely __4__ to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and __5__
not fully understand the meanings. I was used to the __6__ bilingual dictionaries,
in which the words are __7__ both in English and Chinese. I really wondered why my
aunt __8__ to make things so difficult for me. Now,after studying English at
university for three years,I __9__ that monolingual dictionaries are __10__ in
learning a foreign language.
As I found out,there is,__11__,often no perfect equivalence(对应) between

__16__ I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning.__17__,I have e to

2019-2020 年高二暑假作业(七)英语
Rae Armantrout, who has been a poetry professor at the University of California
San Diego(UCSD) for two decades, has won the xx Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category
for her most recent book, “Versed”.
“I’m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer
brings, as pared to even the National Book Critics Award, which I was also surprised
and delighted to win,” said Armantrout.
“For a long time, my writing has been just below the media radar, and to have
this kind of attention, suddenly, with my 10th book, is really surprising.”
Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelor’s degree at UC
Berkeley, where she studied with noted poet Denise Levertov, and her master’s in
creative writing from San Francisco State University. She is a founding member of
Language Poets, a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used
and raises questions to make the reader think.
In March, she won the National Book Critics Circle Award for “Versed.”
“This book has gotten more attention,” Armantrout said, “but I don’t feel
as if it’s better.”
The first half of “Versed” focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United
States as it fought the war against Iraq. The second half looks at the dark forces
casting a shadow over her own life after Armantrout was diagnosed with cancer in
xx.
Armantrout was shocked to learn she had won the Pulitzer but many of her
colleagues were not. “Rae Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry,” said
Seth Lerer, head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD.
“Versed”, published by the Wesleyan University Press, did appear in a larger
printing than her earlier works, which is about 2,700 copies. The new edition is
scheduled to appear in May.

C. She started a poets’ group with others. D. She taught creative writing
at UC Berkeley.
3. What can we learn about “Versed”?
A. It consists of three parts.
B. It is mainly about the American army.

D. It partly concerns the poet’s own life.
4. Rae Armantrout’s colleagues think that she ____________.

C. Armantrout got her degrees at UCSD.
D. “Versed” has been awarded twice.
B
Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While
scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems
can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices
themselves. University of Missouri(MU) researchers are developing a nuclear energy
source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.
“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density(密
度)”,said Jae Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and puter engineering at
MU. “The radioisotope(放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much
higher than chemical batteries.”
Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery,
presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various micro /
nanoelectromechanreal systems (M/NEMS). Although nuclear batteries can cause
concerns, Kwon said they are safe.
“People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous,” he
said, “However, nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety
of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”
His new idea is not only in the battery’s size, but also in its semiconductor(半
导体). Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid
semiconductor.
“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy,
part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure(晶体结构) of the solid
semiconductor,” Kwon said, “By using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can
minimize that problem.”
Together with J. David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director
of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the
future, they hope to increase the battery’s power, shrink its size and try with
various other materials. Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness
of human hair.
6. Which of the following is true of Jae Kwon?
A. He teaches chemistry at MU. B. He developed a chemical battery.
C. He is working on a nuclear energy source.
D. He made a breakthrough in puter engineering.
7. Jae Kwon gave examples in Paragraph 4_________.
A. to show chemical batteries are widely applied.
B. to introduce nuclear batteries can be safely used.
C. to describe a nuclear-powered system.
D. to introduce various energy sources.
8. Liquid semiconductor is used to _________.
A. get rid of the radioactive waste
B. test the power of nuclear batteries.
C. decrease the size of nuclear batteries
D. reduce the damage to lattice structure.
9. According to Jae Kwon, his nuclear battery _______.
A. uses a solid semiconductor
B. will soon replace the present ones.
C. could be extremely thin
D. has passed the final test.
10. The text is most probably a ________.
A. science news report B. book review
C. newspaper ad D. science fiction story

[1]Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging, unless you learn how to deal
with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches,
emotional problems and possibly cancer.
[2]Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time, some people
express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream
and yell.But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express
it.This is called ______________.
[3]For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to
a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the
brain release the same hormones. They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure,
or sugar into the blood, etc. in general the person feels excited and ready to act.
[4]Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous.
They believe that those who express anger violently may be likely to develop heart
disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater
danger of high blood pressure.
[5]Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the
first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the
anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they
say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down
and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
[6]Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation
that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.
