2、 and grandma. Memories of houseboating, fishing, countless hours in the lake, and of course jam-making remain in all our hearts. We were never part of making jam, but I remember watching my mom and grandpa carry in fresh berries from the car, and then measure and cook. Only breaking to sleep and eat

3、, they would show up two days later tired, sometimes covered with burns, and proud faces. Although at that time I couldnt tell you how the jam was made, I knew that each jar (瓶) was made with love and care. They never sold the jam at any local markets; they kept some for themselves and the rest was

4、given away to friends and family. One summer, for some reason, they werent able to make jam. I remember my mom being really sad and I didnt understand till some years later that making jam with her dad wasnt really about the jam at all.

5、e, hers. I dont know what they talked about for all those hours, or if they even talked at all, but any silence was filled with feelings of love and happiness. Now in my mid-30s, my brother, sister and I have our own children to bring to Salmon Arm every summer, if only for a few days. Much has chan

9、to life.D. To spend more time with her daughter.BWhen you imagine a robot, you might picture R2-D2 in Star Wars, but theres a new robotic system called particle robotics that is changing what it means to be a robot.Looking like some kids forgot to pick up their toys, the robot is a collection of pla

10、stic disks (塑料圆盘). The designers refer to each disk as a “particle.” Alone, a single disk cant do much of anything. But when working as a system, they become what the designers call a “particle robot” and can do simple tasks.Scientists behind the project were inspired by nature. In the human body, f

11、or example, individual cells (单个细胞) work together as muscle tissue. Many other types of cells also move together as a group. The robot moves in the same way. Tiny magnets (磁铁) on the disks outer rims (边缘) make them stick together. When one disk expands or shrinks (放大或缩小), it pushes or pulls on its n

12、eighbors. When all of those small pushes and pulls add up, suddenly the robot starts to move very slowly.Even though the disks dont communicate directly with each other, they can act as a group. The scientists showed this by fitting sensors on each disk that could recognize light. Then they programm

13、ed the disks to expand and shrink faster or slower, depending on how strong the light was. When the researchers shone a bright light, the robot slowly moved toward it the result of all those individual expansions and shrinks.Right now, the robot only moves across a smooth surface. It is believed tha

14、t future robots, such as this one, will continue to copy nature, influencing how they might look and move. There will be more and more biologically based designs.5.

30、记叙文。母亲和外祖父多年来坚持一起制作果酱，在家庭里传递爱和喜悦。1.B。推理判断题。根据第一段中的As kids, we traveled to Salmon Arm, B.C., every summer to spend it with my grandpa and grandma. Memories of houseboating, fishing, countless hours in the lake, and of course jam-making remain in all our hearts可知，作者的童年是丰富多彩的。2.A。细节理解题。根据第三段中的One summe

31、r, for some reason, they werent able to make jam. I remember my mom being really sad and I didnt understand till some years later that making jam with her dad wasnt really about the jam at all可知，作者当时无法理解母亲在得知无法制作果酱后为什么会难过。3.C。推理判断题。根据第二段中的I knew that each jar was made with love and care，第三段中的I dont

32、know what they talked about for all those hours, or if they even talked at all, but any silence was filled with feelings of love and happiness以及最后一段中的I feel joy watching my mom and grandpa share this time together可知，作者认为制作果酱的意义在于在家庭中传递爱和欢乐。4.B。细节理解题。根据最后一段中的Its a tradition that one day my mom will c

33、arry forward with me, and many years from now, I will carry forward with my daughter可知，作者将会继承并发扬制作果酱这一家庭传统。B篇主题语境：人与社会科学与技术本文是说明文。文章介绍了新型的粒子机器人。5.D。细节理解题。根据第三段中的In the human body, for example, individual cells work together as muscle tissue. Many other types of cells also move together as a group. T

34、he robot moves in the same way可知，当机器人的不同部件被组合起来，它就会像肌肉组织那样可以移动。6.B。细节理解题。根据第三段中的Scientists behind the project were inspired by nature可知，科学家发明此机器人是从大自然得到了灵感。7.A。篇章结构题。根据第四段中的Tiny magnets on the disks outer rims make them stick together. When one disk expands or shrinks, it pushes or pulls on its neig

35、hbors可知，小磁铁将不同的塑料圆盘连接在一起，当其中一个圆盘伸缩的时候，就会推动或者拉动它旁边的圆盘。it pushes or pulls on its neighbors中的it指代上文中的disk，进而可以推知its neighbors指的是other disks。8.D。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的The scientists showed this by fitting sensors on each disk that could recognize light. Then they programmed the disks to expand and shrink faste

36、r or slower, depending on how strong the light was. When the researchers shone a bright light, the robot slowly moved toward it the result of all those individual expansions and shrinks可知，这个机器人可以感知光，根据光的强弱来调整自己移动的速度。第二节主题语境：人与社会社会服务本文是记叙文。加拿大飞行员去阿蒙森斯科特南极站完成了转移两位生病的科学家的任务。9. B。根据本空上句可知，这次任务发生在南极；根据本空

37、后提到的生病的研究人员安全到达医院可知，这次转移任务很成功。故可推断，B项“尽管很危险，但这趟行程很成功”符合语境。B项中的dangerous与本空前的in the middle of an Antarctic winter相照应，B项中的the trip was a success与本空后的safely arrived at a hospital相照应。10. A。根据第三、四段内容可知，这次救援任务分为几个阶段。故推断A项符合语境。11. E。根据本空前的Two planes traveled south、One of them landed at the Rothera Research

38、 Station可知，一架飞机开往罗瑟拉研究站，由此推断，本空介绍的是另一架飞机的行程，故E项符合语境。12. G。根据本空下句可知，他们到达了中转站，再换乘第一架飞机安全到达智利。由此推断，第二架飞机先飞到阿蒙森斯科特南极站，飞行员们休息了十个小时之后，把生病的科研人员运送到了第一架飞机所在地罗瑟拉研究站，故选G项。13. C。本空前提到了冬季极夜和极低的气温不适合飞机进出阿蒙森斯科特南极站，故可推断，C项“通常二月到十月间不会有飞机飞往南极”符合语境。C项中的between February and October与下文中的summer形成对比。主题语境：人与自我生活本文是记叙文。作者本不

39、喜欢运动，且认为自己永远也不会成为一名跑步者。后来，作者尝试跑步比赛，最后竟然多次参加马拉松比赛。这一经历让作者明白：凡事皆有可能,只要自己肯尝试、肯努力。14. D。由文章首句I never will be a runner及下文中的I didnt discriminate against running可知，此处表示“跑步这项运动（或锻炼方式）”，故选exercise。15. C。由上文中的I never will be a runner及I didnt discriminate against running, though可推断，“我”不喜欢所有的体力活动。设空处所填的词应该表示“不喜

40、欢”或者“讨厌”，故选hated。16. A。17. D。43空后的the event 指代五公里赛跑活动。结合文章首段及下文中的I signed up and trained for eight weeks可知，当“我”“得知（discovered）”这个活动是彩色跑时，“我”没有像往常那样不假思索地拒绝，而是认真“考虑了一下（considered）”。18. B。文章首段提到“我”认为自己永远都不会去跑步。然而，当“我”得知同事所提到的五公里赛跑是彩色跑时，“我”动摇了。由此可知，“我”曾经看到过一位彩色跑参赛者的照片。那时，“我”说如果自己要跑步的话，那一定是彩色跑，故选did。19.

41、D。由上文中的I felt intimidated by my co-workers, who were experienced runners可知， “我”很不自信，担心自己会在同事面前丢脸，故选shame（使蒙受耻辱；使丢脸）。20. B。本句中的However可提示本段是对上文内容的转折，说明 “我”在比赛时的表现和自己预想的不一样。结合本句中的I not only kept up可推断，在比赛那天，“我”不仅能跟得上同事们，而且还“领先了（led）”。21. C。“我”在比赛时的出色表现可提示此处表示“我”成为了一名“跑步者（runner）”。此处与文章首句I never will b

42、e a runner对照呼应。22. B。“我”不喜欢运动，且只参加过一次五公里的赛跑活动。结合常识可知，对于“我”来说，跑半程马拉松挺有挑战性的。四个选项中，只有frightening（令人害怕的）符合语境。23. C。下文中的Thoughts troubled me. I cant do it提示设空处所填的词应24. A。由“我”比赛前的紧张表现及下文中的But Id paid the fee for this race and thought that if I had to walk I would可推断，“我”差点都要弃赛了，故选giving up（放弃）。25. B。由下文中的I

43、 walked with her but didnt need to可推断，跑到五英里时，“我”应该感觉还可以，great符合语境。26. D。下文中的I walked with her提示本空选walk。27. C。由“我”最初怀疑自己能不能跑完半程马拉松赛，到比赛前差点弃赛，再到跑到11英里时还能坚持跑可知，“我”的表现比自己预想的要好得多。也就是说，“我”能做成的事情超出自己的想象，故选achieved。28. B。结合全文可知，“我”认为自己永远也不会去跑步。没想到，后来“我”尝试五公里赛跑，还多次参加马拉松比赛。这让“我”明白自己可以去挑战“不可能的（impossible）”事情。作者用I can do things that seem impossible 总结全文，升华主题。
