【題目】It seems that electronic devices just keep getting smaller. Scientists in the United States have announced the creation of the first transistor with only two dimensions(二維).

A transistor is a small electronic device that transfers or carries electronic current. Scientists hope these new 2D transistors will be used for building high-resolution(高分辨率)displays that need very little energy.

Two groups of scientists created these 2D transistors. They report that the transistors are only a few atoms thick.

Usually transistors are made with the element silicon(硅). Computer processors, memory chips, TV screens and other electronic devices contain billions of silicon-based transistors. But these very small electrical parts have certain limitations.

Dimitris Ioannou is an electrical engineering professor at George Mason University. He says the traditional transistor has been improved as much as it can be.He adds that researchers have been looking for new materials with special features and they want transistors to be seen through and soft.

“If the layers are very thin, the transistor can become flexible, so it doesn't have to be rigid(堅(jiān)硬的), like it would be in a silicon chip. So people can think of applications like wearable electronics, television screens and other things,” said Ioannou.

These new transistors can also carry higher current. They also can move the current much faster than traditional transistors. This is important for high-definition screens.

Dimitris Ioannou says the scientific success could prove very useful in the future. "Now, how good and how useful it will be, it's still in the stage of research, but it certainly is an advance," said Ioannou.

1Which of the following statements about the newly created transistor is TRUE?

A. They are expected to be used in high-resolution displays.

B. The transistors are made with the element silicon.

C. They are rigid, just like traditional transistors.

D. They have already been put into actual use.

2What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 mean?

A. The traditional transistors have been changed into two-dimensional ones.

B. Many of the traditional transistors have been improved over the years.

C. The traditional transistor has been developed to its fullest.

D. The traditional transistor has been developed quite well.

3What is Dimitris Ioannou's attitude towards the creation of the new transistors?

A. Negative. B. Neutral.

C. Indifferent. D. Positive.

【答案】

1A

2C

3D

【解析】本文為介紹說(shuō)明文。美國(guó)科學(xué)家發(fā)明了新的二維晶體管,文章介紹了新型二維晶體管的相關(guān)信息及未來(lái)前景。

1細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的Scientists hope these new 2D transistors will be used for building high-resolution(高分辨率)displays that need very little energy.可知,科學(xué)家們希望能用這些新的二維晶體管來(lái)制造高分辨率的顯示器。故選A。

2句意理解題。劃線句句意為“他說(shuō)傳統(tǒng)的晶體管已經(jīng)盡可能地改進(jìn)了”可推知,傳統(tǒng)的晶體管已經(jīng)開(kāi)發(fā)到了極致。故選C。

3觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。A. Negative消極的;B. Neutral中性的;C. Indifferent漠不關(guān)心的;D. Positive積極的。根據(jù)最后一段中的Dimitris Ioannou所說(shuō)的話可推知,他對(duì)于這種新型的晶體管持有積極樂(lè)觀的態(tài)度。故選D。

【題目】任務(wù)型閱讀
Every person wants to achieve the goals set at the beginning of a new school year. The following are some ways to help you achieve your goals.
When it comes to choosing your goal, ensure that it states precisely what it is that you want to achieve. Don't generalize. Your goal should involve both what you want to achieve and the effort that you will put in to achieve it.
Having a copy of your goal makes it real. You can write you goal in a journal you'll be keeping all year, or you can write it on a poster and stick it on your desk so that you can look at it each day. Every time you remind yourself of your goal, you're training your brain to accept the effort needed to make the goal happen.
Try various methods. One may not work while another may be just right for you.Some people learn best through writing, some through listening and reading, and some through talking it through. Once you realize which way works for you, you can work better and achieve your goal easily.
Think positive.Negative thoughts are unhelpful and they became roadblocks. Stop telling yourself you can't and start telling yourself you can, and talk about you are doing rather than hoping you can do something. Always believe that you're capable, even if you have difficulty along the way.
Reward yourself along the way.Occasionally, when you've achieved certain “milestones” in your goal plan, take a break and reward yourself. Watch a movie, visit a friend who lives across town, go to the ice cream shop with your friends or buy yourself something new.
A. Write down your goal.
B. Choose specific and realistic gals
C. Be aware of the way you learn best
D. Remember that everyone makes mistakes
E. Set aside some time each week for exercise
F. All study and no reward can break your spirit
G. If you're not in the right state of mind, you won't be able to succeed.

【題目】Maps of the world’s population show that the majority of people today live near water. 1We also vacation at the beach and find comfort fishing on a lake. Nothing makes small children happier than the chance of playing in water. More interesting, this human favor for water makes evolutionary sense. 2

Neuroscientist(神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)科學(xué)家) Michael Crawford of the University of North London has proposed that our ancient ancestors attached to the sea, and that their devotion paid off by allowing the human species to develop large and complex brains. Crawford claims that when humans separated from apes and appeared in the forests of Africa, they stuck close to rivers and beaches and started catching fish and crabs.3

It's no coincidence, Crawford claims, that human brain growth began to increase rapidly once we left the woods and headed for the beach.

4Psychiatrist(精神病學(xué)家)and biochemist Joseph Hibbelin of National Institutes of Health has shown that across cultures there is direct link between amount of fish eaten each week and rates of depression. More interesting, Hibbelin and researcher Laura Reis have found that fish is commonly used as a symbol of happiness and good health in various religions and cultures.

5We vacation on the coast and see the waves come and go, feeling happiness has taken over our brain. When we move inland, or go home from vacation, we lose touch with our sea roots and feel unhappy.

A. Sure, we need drinking water to live, but we have also benefited from what’s swimming under waves.

B. We know that fish and the sea are good for us, and we seek them out.

C. We live along coastlines, around bays, up the course of rivers and streams and on islands.

D. Scientists help people overcome depression.

E. Scientists have also discovered that people who eat fish regularly are less likely to suffer from depression than those who eat less seafood.

F. It is good for our health to swim under the waves.

G. That sea food was packed with omega-3 fatty acids, essential fatty acids that promote brain cell growth.
