11、stealth technology (隱形技術(shù)) that helps them charge towards preyan animal hunted and eaten by anotherundetected, a study has shown.Owls have flight feathers that absorb aerodynamic sound and control the vibrations (振動(dòng)) that occur when a bird beats its wings. The result is perfect silence as it approach

12、es a mouse or other prey.Scientists used lasers and high-speed cameras to analyze and compare long-eared owl, eagle and pigeon feathers during flight. While differing in size, all three birds have a similar wing-beat style.Professor Jinkui Chu led the research. He said, “Many owls have a unique and

13、fascinating ability to fly so silently that they are out of their preys hearing range, due to their feather structure.”This behaviour has long been of interest to engineers, as we seek to apply the owls noise-reduction mechanisms (機(jī)制) to other purposes and situations that benefit society.Now, howeve

14、r, we know the owls silent flight ability is even better than we thought. Of all birds the owl is the king of acoustic stealth. It not only manages to prevent aerodynamic noise when gliding, but also mechanical noise caused by vibration during flying.This is remarkable, considering the sudden jumpin

15、g, bending and twisting the wings are subjected to when flapping and the noise that is created by other birds.In the scientific world, the process used to remove this mechanical noise is called damping, which means the removal of mechanical energy from a vibrating system usually by changing it into

16、heat and allowing it to remain steady.“Our research showed the long-eared owl has superior damping skill, meaning it can remain amazingly stable and remove mechanical noise caused by the movement of its feathers quite an impressive achievement of engineering.99He added, “This study will hopefully pr

17、ovide further insight into the owls silent flight mechanism and help engineers develop ideas for special materials or structures, such as on-shore wind turbines, where similar noise removal can be applied.”1、What can be true about owls according to the text?AThey are active during the day. BThey att

18、ract much attention from engineers.CThey have similar wings to eagles. DThey beat wings without vibrations.2、By saying “the owl is the king of acoustic stealth” in Paragraph 6, Jinkui Chu means owls_.Aare good at capturing prey Bhave a good sense of hearingCare good at jumping and twisting Dhave sil

His wish for the Year of the Dog is to see smart glass- the product his team has been developing since 2016-go into production.Starting a business with a creative researc

21、h team and receiving government support have given him a strong sense of pride, a feeling he says he often lacked during his 25 years working in the United States, he said.He was among Chinas first students to travel to the US for postgraduate stud After that, he landed his first job at Amoco Corp a

22、nd later moved to California eventually becoming head of product research and development at KLA-Tencor, a global capital equipment company in Silicon Valley. Yet Pei said he still felt unfulfilled and unsatisfied.“It seemed there was an invisible ceiling for me when I pursued my career in the US. I

23、 felt like it was unlikely for me to achieve any higher sense of achievement or recognition.”He returned to China in 2017, and nine years later established a smart-glass company in Hefei with two other US-trained engineers.The companys product is suitable for low-temperature, flexible smart-film man

25、ies. “What attracts me to Hefei is that it is easy to gather tech talents here due to the citys rapid development in recent years, and also because it has several universities,” he said. Support from the local government has been one of the best attractions that convinced Pei to locate his company i

26、n the eastern Chinese city.In January last year, Hefei was approved as the site of a national-level science center, the second of its kind after an earlier one was built in Shanghai. The center, now under construction, will focus on areas including information technology, energy and health.1、Why did

A global study looked at the average height of 18-year-olds in 200 countries

40、1914 and 2014. The results show that while Swedes were the tallest people in the world in 1914, Dutch men have risen from l2th place to claim top spot with an average height of 182.5cm. Larvian women, meanwhile, rose from 28th place in 1914 to become the tallest in the world a century later, with an

41、 average height of 169.8cm. James Bentham, a co-author of the research says the global trend is likely but once you average over whole populations, genetics plays a less key role, he added.But while height has increased around the world, the trend in many countries of north and sub-Saharan Africa ca

42、uses concern, says Elio Riboli of Imperial College. While height increased in Uganda and Niger during the early 20th century, the trend has reversed in recent years, with height decreasing among 18-year-olds.One reason for these decreases in height is the economic situation in the 1980s, said Profes

43、sor Alexander. The nutritional and health problems that followed the policy of structural adjustment, he says, led to many children and teenagers failing to reach their full potential in terms of height.Bentham believes the global trend of increasing height has important implications. How tall we ar

44、e now is strongly influenced by the environment we grew up in, he said. If we give children the best possible start in life now, they will be healthier and more productive for decades to come.1、What can be learned from Paragraph I?AThe increase in womens height is much bigger than mens in the last c

45、entury.BThe last century has seen a great increase in peoples height in most countries.CGenetics plays a key role in the increase of peoples height in the last century.DDutch and Swedes are ranked first and second in height in the world nowadays.2、The underlined word reversed in Paragraph 2 can be r

46、eplaced by .Aslowed down.Bgone upwards.Cchanged to the contrary.Dcome to life again.3、According to the text,James Bentham suggests that .AThe economic situation of some countries should be improved.BEnvironment protection should be attached great importance to.CThe global trend of increasing height

47、should be closely watched.DChildrens proper nutrition and healthcare should be guaranteed.25（10分） A new study has discovered that meditation（冥想）and oxygen sport together reduce depression. The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination, done twice a week for only two months,

48、reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent.“We are excited by the findings because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non-depressed students,” said lead author Dr. Brandon Alderman. “It is the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have b

49、een looked at together for dealing with depression.”Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect oncombating depression. Alderman and Dr. Tracey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training (MAP) enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let p

50、roblems or negative thoughts defeat them.Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oxygen sport. They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their brea

51、thing, enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.Shors, who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampuspart of the brain involved in memory and learningsays scientists have shown in animal models that oxygen sport exercise keeps a large number of

52、 certain cells alive.The idea for the human intervention（干預(yù)）came from her laboratory studies, she says, with the main goal of helping individuals acquire new skills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.By learning to focus their attention and exercise, people who are fighting

53、 depression can acquire new learning skills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past, Shors says.“We know these treatments can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental health.” said Alderman. “Th

54、e good news is that this intervention can be practiced by anyone at any time and at no cost.”1、What made the research so different?AAdopting a way of meaningful talk.BCombining the two behavioral ways to treat depression.CTreating depression with special medicine.DComparing the depressed with the no

55、n-depressed.2、The underlined word “combating” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by _.AfightingBidentifyingCdistinguishingDexamining3、What did the participants do in the research?AThey did oxygen sport half an hour before thinking.BThey thought quietly and then took exercise.CThey took exercise longer t

56、han they thought.DThey took exercise while thinking quietly.4、What is Shors main purpose of her studies?ATo find out certain brain cells of humans.BTo study the production of new brain cells.CTo offer people a new method to treat stress.DTo decide the links between stress and exercise.第三部分 語(yǔ)言知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩
