第二部分阅读（共两节，满分35分）

第一节（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A

The match was nearly over and I was almost on my last legs, when I saw a chance. I

picked the ball up from Sally and headed for the German penalty area (罚球区).

\"Jess!\" I could hear Jules shouting as she ran alongside me. \"Pass!\" I looked up and hit the ball forward into space. Jules ran on to it, picked it up and hit the ball into the net. It was just as good as Beckham's last-minute goal against Greece!

Two minutes later, the referee(裁判) blew the whistle for full-time. A draw.

\"Penalties,\"Jules said, with a wide smile on her face.

Although it wasn't usual to finish a friendly with penalties, both sides

had decided that it would be a nice idea. Joe came on to the pitch(球场) to give us a quick pep talk. Maybe he wouldn't choose me.

\"OK, Jules, you go first,\" Joe said. \"Then Mel, Tina, Hannah and-Jess.\"I tried not to look relieved that I was last. With any luck I wouldn't have to take my turn, if the match was decided before that.

The Germans went first and scored. So did Jules. The Germans scored again. So did

Mel. After a third German goal, Tina was looking nervous, but she was lucky because her shot went in off the post.

My stomach was turning over and over as Hannah stepped up to take our fourth penalty. If Hannah scored, it would be all down to the last German penalty-taker-and me.

Hannah rolled the ball smoothly into the left-hand corner of the net.I tried to take deep breaths to calm myself down. If the next German player scored, I'd have to take my turn. I closed my eyes, willing her to fail.

A loud roar around the stadium told me that she'd scored. The referee signaled me to come over and with heavy steps I walked over to place the ball on the spot. I was really tired and my legs felt like they were made of lead. Behind me I could hear the girls yelling encouragement. I made a superhuman effort and ran towards the ball, but even as I hit it,

I knew it wasn't right. I groaned as the ball hit the crossbar and bounced away into the crowd.

21. Why was Jess's kick compared to the one of Beckham's A. They were both penalty kicks.

B. They both ensured victory of the match.

C. They were both the only goal scored in the match. D. They were both scored in the last minute of the match. 22. Why was Jess relieved learning that she was the last to take the penalty

A. She had confidence in herself.

B. They already had the game in their hands. C. She might not be the one to decide the game. D. The Germans were not good at penalty kicks.

23. How did Jess feel when she was about to take her penalty A. Exhausted and unconfident. B. Relieved and delighted. C. Relieved but disappointed. D. Exhausted but excited. B

I don't ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it's like to work in a field controlled by men. I was never very good at

telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space-time and the nature of black holes.

At 19,when I began studying astrophysics,it did not bother me in the least to be the 7

only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D. at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement - jobs, research papers, awards-was viewed from the angle of gender. So were my failures.

Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any and all provocations (挑衅) : I don't talk about that anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn't want to deal with gender issues. Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist

Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women's college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how many of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don't dismiss those concerns. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in

turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that's a sight worth talking about.

24. Why doesn't the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again

A She finds space research more important. B. She is not good at telling stories of the kind. C. She is fed up with the issue of sexual discrimination. D. She feels unhappy working in male-controlled fields

25. According to Paragraph 2, what bothered the author constantly A. People's fixed attitude toward female scientists. B. Lack of confidence in succeeding in space science C. Widespread misunderstanding about her space research. D. Unfair treatment from both inside and outside her circle. 26. What does the underlined sentence convey

A. Women should do science experiments while having a baby. B. Women can balance a career in science and having a family. C. Women now have fewer problems pursuing a science career. D. Women have more barriers on their way to academic success. C

Professor Ashok Goel of Georgia Tech developed an artificially intelligent teaching assistant to help handle the numerous questions from students in the online class. Professor Goel already had 8 teaching assistants, but

that wasn't enough to deal with the huge number of questions from students.

Many students drop out of online courses for lack of teaching support. When students feel confused and reach out with questions that go unanswered, their motivation to continue begins to fade. Professor Goel decided to do something to change this situation by creating a virtual assistant named Jill Watson, which is based on the IBM Watson platform. Goel and his team developed several versions of Jill Watson before releasing her to the online forums (论坛) . At first, the virtual assistant wasn't too great. But Goel and his team sourced the online discussion forum to find all 40, 000 questions that had ever been asked since the class started. Then they began to feed Jill with the questions and answers. After some adjustment, Jill was able to answer the students' questions correctly 97% of the time. The virtual assistant became so advanced and realistic that the students didn't know she was a computer. The students, who were studying artificial intelligence, were interacting with artificial intelligence and couldn't tell it apart from a real human being. Goel didn't inform them about Jill's true identity until April 26. The students were actually very positive about the experience. The goal of Professor Goel's virtual assistant next year is to take over answering 40% of all questions raised by students. The name, Jill Watson will of course, change to something else next term. Professor Goel has a

much rosier outlook on the future of Al than say, Elon Musk, Stephen Hawking, Bill Gates or Steve Wozniak.

27. Professor Goel created a virtual teaching assistant because ____________.

A. his course was not interesting enough B. he felt confused about how to teach online C. students' questions were too many to handle D. his students were unsatisfied with the assistants 28. What do we learn about Jill Watson A. She turned out to be. a great success. B. She was unwelcome to students at first. C. Her true identity was still a secret to students. D. Her name will be kept for the next virtual assistant. 29. What does Professor Goel plan to do next with Jill Watson A. Replace her with different versions. B. Enable her to answer more questions. C. Recommend her to some famous people. D. Equip her with new questions and answers. 30. What's the main idea of the text

A. A robot named Jill Watson gives an online course.

B. Robots will take humans' place in online classes in the future. C. A virtual teaching assistant is getting popular among the students.

D. A virtual teaching assistant helps solve online questions in large quantities.

第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Can you remember a time when you woke up from a fantastic or strange dream Maybe you were afraid and turned on the light or the dream was so good you wanted to

sleep longer. But do you think your dreams are telling you something __31__ Today, too many people can remember a time when they saw a place or person in their dream and then later, the dream happened in real life. Most people have four to six dreams every night after the age of ten. __32__ So, an-80-year-old person has probably had-140,000 dreams. Maybe we forget 95-99 percent of our dreams, but that's still thousands of dreams that might \"come true\".

Around the 18th and 19th centuries, there were two popular ideas about dreams. One said that the things we see in our dreams are things we keep in our subconscious because we don't want or need to think about them when we're awake. __33__ Dreams are just random thoughts from our day but we try to make a story from them when we wake up. Perhaps both ideas are a little bit right. Maybe dreams are made from the thoughts we have during the day, but we see them as

symbols. __34__

When we're awake, we think in words most of the time. But when we're sleeping, the

part of our brain that helps us with language sleeps, and the part that makes us happy or sad or angry is awake and busy. __35__ If you can understand these symbols, you have a window into your subconscious. A. That's as many as 2,000 dreams per year.

B. Maybe that's not surprising because we dream a lot. C. Also, how you were feeling in the dream is important.

D. For centuries, people thought dreams were messages from gods or spirits.

E. For example, a dream of flying might be a symbol for an exciting new job.

F. The opposite idea said the brain organizes thoughts from the day while we're sleeping.

G. So, maybe our thoughts come to us in dreams as feelings and symbols instead of words.
