六边形的

204106. （2023•西安中学•高二上期末） I walked along the sidewalk that borders the west side of Central Park this morning，wondering at itape：Hexagonal（六边形的） paving stones underneath my feet were bordered by brickwork，with a tidy stone wall running alongside.Just past the wall lay the park itself，where delicate branches of leafless trees reached to the blue sky，and sparrows emerged from trees.
   The contrast between the straight-lined，orderly，man-made sidewalk and the complex diversity of nature just beyond its border made me think about the differences between natural creation and man's creation.
   The world holds many examples of circles：the moon，grapes，drops of water and the center of flowers.Triangles（三角形） are readily evident，too.There are kitty cat noses and ears，mountain peaks and river deltas.
   But what about the most common shape in the man-made world，the rectangle（矩形）？I searched my brain for natural equals.Though I thought and thought，I came up with only two：teeth and salt crystals.That surprised me.Do we prefer rectangles simply because it's easier to plan and build with blocks and straight lines？Or does it have something to do with the idea that humans tend to assume life is supposed to be linear？I don't know.
   There are bent lines everywhere.As I look at the beauty of，a tree in winter，with its branches reaching skyward in a seemingly untidy but obviously planned pattern，I can apprehend something of what that means.
   Our world isn't always tidy and predictable in the way that I want it to be.There are twists and turns in my life that I can't foresee or predict.That doesn't mean branching off in unexpected directions is bad or wrong.It means that when I find myself in each new place，I need to continue growing and reaching upward.

[解析]

（1）细节理解题。由文章第一段I walked along the sidewalk that borders the west side of Central Park this morning，wondering at its shape：Hexagonal（六边形的） paving stones underneath my feet were bordered by brickwork，with a tidy stone wall running alongside.（今天早上我沿着人行横道的边界走在中央公园的西侧，惊讶于它们的形状：我的脚下是六边形的铺路石以砖墙为边界，旁边是一堵整洁的石墙。）可知，我在散步时看见铺路石的形状很惊讶。所以答案为B项。
（2）观点态度题。由文章第二段The contrast between the straight﹣lined，orderly，man﹣made sidewalk and the complex diversity of nature just beyond its border made me think about the differences between natural creation and man's creation.（笔直有序的，人造的人行横道与边界外复杂多样的自然之间的对比，让我思考自然创造与人类创造之间的差异。）可知，形状是客观存在于自然界和人造物体中，推断出作者寻找形状差异时思考的态度也是客观的。A．negative.否定的；B．cautious.小心谨慎的；C．unconcerned.不担心的；D．objective.客观的。所以答案为D项。

205726. （2018•西安中学•高二上期末） Tempted by a chocolate bar？Maybe indulging （沉迷于） every so often is not a bad thing especially if it's dark chocolate．
According to a Swedish study in the journal of the American College of Cardiology that looked at more than 33，000 women，the more chocolate the women said they ate，the lower their risk of stroke．
The results add to a growing body of evidence linking cocoa consumption to heart health，but they aren't a free pass to overeat chocolate．
"Given the observational design of the study，findings of this study cannot prove that it's chocolate that lowers the risk of stroke，said Susanna Larsson from Karolinska Institute in Stockholm，in an email to Reuters Health．
While she believes chocolate has health benefits，she also warned that eating too much of it could be having the opposite of the desired effect．
"Chocolate should be consumed within reasonable limits as it is high in calories，fat and sugar．As dark chocolate contains more cocoa and less sugar than milk chocolate，consumption of dark chocolate would be more beneficial．"
Larsson and her colleagues tapped into data from a mammography study that included self-reports of how much chocolate women ate in 1997．The women ranged in age from 49 to 83 years．
Over the next decade，there were 1，549 strokes among the group．The more chocolate women ate，the lower their risk．
Among those with the highest weekly chocolate intake，more than 45 grams，there were 2.5 strokes per 1，000 women per year．That figure was 7.8 per 1，000 among women who ate the least，less than 8.9 grams a week．
Scientists speculate （推测） that substances known as flavonoids may be responsible for chocolate's apparent impact on health．
According to Larsson，flavonoids have been shown to cut high blood pressure，a risk factor for strokes，and improve other factors linked to heart health．Whether that theoretical benefit translates to real-life benefits remains to be proven by strict studies，however．
Nearly 800，000 people in the United States suffer a stroke every year，with about a sixth of them dying of it and many more left disabled．
For those at high risk，doctors recommend blood pressure medicine，quitting smoking，exercising more and eating a healthier diet，but so far，chocolate isn't on the list．

（1）The researchers who study chocolate lovers with fewer strokes are from        ．
A．America
B．Sweden
C．Britain
D．Spain
（2）Which of the following statements is FALSE according to the passage？
A．The more chocolate the women eat，the lower they may have their risk of stroke．
B．Results of this study cannot prove chocolate can lower the risk of stroke．
C．The more chocolate you eat，the healthier you are．
D．Eating too much chocolate could be bad for health．
（3）Which of the following words can replace the underlined word "intake" in Paragraph 9？
A．consumption
B．input
C．income
D．effect
（4）What can we infer from the last paragraph？
A．Whether eating chocolate can lower the risk of stroke has been solved．
B．There are many people in the United States suffering a stroke every year．
C．Doing more exercise is beneficial to health．
D．Whether eating chocolate can lower the risk of stroke remains to be studied．
（5）What's the main idea of the passage？
A．A study about stroke．
B．Chocolate lover may have fewer strokes．
C．A study about the benefit of chocolate．
D．Eating more dark chocolate does good to health．

204376. （2023•铁一中学•高三上期末） The power of words is sometimes hard to understand. （1）       If you have goals and dreams in life，write them down and speak them out.
   As an ancient proverb says， "Your tongue has the power of life and death." That means that your words have the power to finally cause things to happen，even life and death.（2）       For example，an encouraging word to someone who is down can lift his spirits and help him make it through the day.Words can have a powerful effect on your subconscious brain.And it will in turn affect your life greatly.
   Be very careful，because your words have destructive power too.You have probably heard of children being scolded（责骂；严厉责备） by their parents and developing a bad self-image.（3）       However，experts say it is important to praise children 4 times for each scolding.
   （4）       It's not your parents，your past relationships，your job，the economy，or your age that is to blame（责怪）.You and only you are responsible for every decision you make.
   We may all experience the power of words in our life，even when we were very young.
   （5）       Encouraging words from our teacher or parents when we fail the exam can make us work harder at our lessons，while blame or scolding will make things worse.

202731. （2020•西安中学•六模） Reasons You Might Not Be Able to Donate Blood Donating blood is a generous - not to mention necessary - act，but there are several restrictions on giving that protect you and future recipients of your gift．
   The medications you're taking
   Most medications won't disqualify you from being able to donate blood．
（1）       ．If you're taking an antibiotic for an infection，you may be asked to wait until you're healthy again；if you're taking aspirin and donating platelets，you must wait two full days after taking aspirin or any medication containing aspirin before donating．
   You've tested positive for hepatitis or HIV
（2）       ，you cannot donate if you've tested positive for either condition．Because some types of hepatitis may not be treatable and can lead to fatal health problems，such as liver failure and liver cancer，it is too risky to donate blood if you have these diseases．
（3）
   If you weigh less than 110 pounds，you're not eligible to donate blood．Underweight individuals tend to have low blood volumes and therefore may not tolerate the removal of the required volume of blood．
   Your iron levels are too low or too high
   Having low iron - less than 12.5 g/dL for women and 13.0 g/dL for men - will disqualify you from donating．For this reason，frequent donors，especially women，are encouraged to take iron supplements and eat iron-rich foods to keep their levels in the normal range．
（4）       ．
   You recently got a piercing or electrolysis
（5）       ，if you've recently gotten an ear or body piercing or electrolysis with a reusable gun or reusable instrument．Before you get a piercing or electrolysis，he recommends doing your research on whether the place employs single-use equipment．

A．Having levels that are too high will also disqualify you from blood donation
B．High blood iron levels increase the risk of diseases
C．But some may require a waiting period after your final dose
D．Since HIV and hepatitis can be transmitted through blood
E．You're underweight
F．When you go donate，make sure you have an updated medication list with you
G．You'll have to wait three months before you can give blood

204186. （2023•长安区一中•高一下期末） Have you ever been labeled a "perfectionist"？Or do you consider yourself to be one？It's inviting to see perfectionism as a desirable or positive quality.（1）        Healthy perfectionists want to develop their sills continually.Their standards are always rising，and they approach their work with optimism，pleasure and a desire to improve.（2）        If something isn't perfect，they refuse it.They may experience fear of failure，anxiety and other painful emotions.
   （3）       According to a recent research，perfectionism is linked to health issues such as eating disorders and depression.Perfectionism can also seriously impact your creativity.This is because perfectionism can prevent you from leaving your comfort zone and taking risks.（4）        You may avoid starting a new project until you've found the best way to approach it.You might also get caught up in minor details or repeat tasks that have already been completed.As a result，this wastes time that could have been spent on more important tasks.
   If you think that you have a problem with perfectionism，start by setting realistic goals.（5）        Then，break them down into monthly or yearly steps.Not only will this make it easier to reach your objectives，but you'll also experience the thrill of achieving these smaller goals.Perhaps Theodore Roosevelt said it best "Do what you can，with what you have，where you.are." Accept that this is the best you can do and don't try and make up some perfect world.

B.Perfectionism can damage your productivity，too.

204810. （2022•周至四中•高二下期末） You've heard that plastic is polluting the ocean—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year.But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference？Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does.He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage，forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
   At the beginning of the year，the artist built a piece called "Strawpocalypse，" a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves，frozen mid-crash.Made of 168，000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups，the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City，Vietnam.
   Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled.Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source（来源）of plastic pollution，but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and，because of their small size and weight，they cannot be recycled.Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes.Once the drink is gone，the straw will take centuries to disappear.
   In a piece from 2018，Von Wong wanted to illustrate（说明）a specific statistic：Every 60 seconds，a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean.For this work，titled "Truckload of Plastic，" Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10，000 pieces of plastic，which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped（倾倒） from a truck all at once.
   Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.

（1）What are Von Wong's artworks intended for？
A．Beautifying the city he lives in.
B．Introducing eco-friendly products.
C．Drawing public attention to plastic waste.
D．Reducing garbage on the beach.
（2）Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3？
A．To show the difficulty of their recycling.
B．To explain why they are useful.
C．To voice his views on modern art.
D．To find a substitute for them.
（3）What effect would "Truckload of Plastic" have on viewers？
A．Calming.
B．Disturbing.
C．Refreshing.
D．Challenging.
（4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text？
A．Artists' Opinions on Plastic Safety
B．Media Interest in Contemporary Art
C．Responsibility Demanded of Big Companies
D．Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures

204517. （2023•西安市蓝田县城关中学•高一下期末）     When I was young，a friend and I came up with a "big" plan to make reading easy.The idea was to boil down great books to a sentence each. "Moby-Dick" by American writer Herman Melville，for instance，was reduced to： "A whale of a tale about the one that got away." As it turned out， the joke was on us.How could a single sentence convey the essence （精髓） of a masterpiece with over five hundred pages？
    Blinkist，a website and an app，now summarizes nonfiction titles in the form of quick takes labeled "bliks." The end result is more than one sentence，but not by much.Sarah Bakewell's "At the Existentialist Cafe" is broken into 11 screens of information；Michelle Obama's "Becoming" fills 13.
    Blinkist has been around since 2012.It calls its summaries "15-minute discoveries" to indicate how long it takes to read a Blinkist summary. "Almost none of us，" the editors assure us， "have the time to read everything we'd like to read." Well，yes，of course. "So many books，so little time." declares a poster I once bought at a book market.But I judge the quality of someone's library by the books he or she has yet to read.
    That's because a book is something we ought to live with，rather than speed through and categorize.It offers an experience as real as any other.The point of reading a book is not accumulating information，or at least not that alone.The most essential aspect is the communication between writer and reader：The idea behind Blinkist，however，is the opposite：
    Reading can be，should be，measured by the efficient uptake （吸收） of key ideas.No，no，no.What's best about reading books is its inefficiency.
    When reading a book，we need to dive in，let it take over us，demand something of us，teach us what it can.Blinkist is instead a service that changes books for people who don't，in fact，want to read.A 15-minute summary misses the point of reading；speed-reading with the app isn't reading at all.

（1）What does the underlined part "the joke was on us" in Paragraph 1 mean？
A．We were actually joking.
B．We were laughed at by others.
C．We were underestimating ourselves.
D．We were just embarrassing ourselves.
（2）What is Paragraph 2 mainly about？
A．What Blinkist is.
B．Why Binkist is popular.
C．How to use Blinkist.
D．Where you can use Blinkist.
（3）What is mentioned as a problem about reading in paragraph 3？
A．There are few new books of quality.
B．Many books are hard to understand.
C．People do not have enough time to read.
D．People do not like reading as much as before.
（4）What is an ideal pattern of reading according to the author？
A．Obtaining key ideas efficiently.
B．Further confirming our beliefs.
C．Accumulating information quickly.
D．Deeply involving ourselves in books.

204499. （2023•蓝田县•高二下期末）     Many years ago，I bumped into an old friend of mine.He had devoted his life to acting but had never been quite successful.In his middle age，he seemed defeated and sad.
    I thought of his dogged （顽强的） perseverance.Was it smart or foolish？What could he have achieved？Had he quit his dream of acting and moved on？Our culture does not look kindly upon quitting.Failure is perfectly acceptable as long as it eventually results in success.
    We chant （反复喊着） "Winners never quit" and "If at first you don't succeed，try again." We lap up （欣然接受） stories of persistence，of the author who submitted stories for years before her novels were published or of the athlete who trained since childhood to win gold at the Olympics.
    Persistence pays off when it is rewarded with success，but it does not reward every person.For every JK Rowling，there are thousands of aspiring writers who will never get published.For every Olympic athlete，there are innumerable （无数的） others who trained every day of their lives and never made the cut.
    We all agree that doing the same things and expecting a different result is unwise.So why do we believe that persevering through failure after failure is a good idea？We consider quitting in the face of failure to be weak.We believe that perseverance is the key to success.Perseverance is only one part of success.You need talent or skill，as well as passion and drive.Luck and timing are also key to any great success.
    Our society believes that anything is possible，as long as you "believe".But not everyone can make it.Quitting when you're not ahead is sometimes the smartest thing to do.Obviously，if you enjoy a pursuit，regardless of its outcome，you should continue.If you knew your novel would never be published，would you want to write？If you could never be a champion swimmer，would you still train？Sometimes，it is wise to put your energy into something else.
    Failure is not always the path to success.Sometimes，failure is the door to something new.

（1）What do we know about the author's old friend？
A．He was dissatisfied with his acting performance.
B．He switched his dream of acting to something else.
C．He failed in acting because of a lack of persistence.
D．He failed in all attempts to become a successful actor.
（2）The author mentioned JK Rowling mainly to        .
A．explain how she achieved success in writing
B．show that success doesn't happen to everyone
C．prove that success favors those who are perseverant
D．encourage readers to hold onto their dream until they succeed
（3）What is the meaning of the underlined phrase in paragraph 4？
A．Made out of their dreams.
B．Met the required standard.
C．Improved their performances.
D．Promised to be good players.
（4）What does the author advise us to do if we've failed many times？
A．Make an effort to try new things.
B．Stick to your goal until we succeed.
C．Wait for the right time and good luck.
D．Ask friends or family members for help.

205313. （2021•新城区•高一下期末） Major cities across the country，from Washington D.C.to Los Angeles，are heating up.The downtown parts of Phoenix can be up to 15 degrees warmer at night than its suburb（郊区）.During the day，the street can reach over 160 degrees，hot enough to cook an egg.Unsurprisingly，walking across such a hot street to get to work，school，and do your daily work takes its toll on your health.
   Local governments have turned to planting trees to help stop rising temperatures in city areas.These tree planting efforts are usually announced with much showing off but are not as simple as planting a few trees and calling it a day.There's typically this sort of blind faith that trees will provide all of wonderful social benefits.But the environmental benefits that trees provide depend entirely on context.Tree planting plans may not lead to the cooling joy we desire in city areas.
   While tees，theoretically，are a "green" solution to unbearable summer city weather，in practice，many problems arise，namely keeping track of just how many trees have already found their roots and convincing land owners to keep planting trees along their personal property（私产）.In some cases，cities are already doing a good enough job that they are running out of space，like in Washington，D.C.where they are currently at 38 percent canopy （树冠）coverage but are hoping to raise coverage up to 40 percent.But the biggest problem is that public area alone isn't enough for new trees in Washington D.C，as well as in cities like Phoenix and Los Angeles，and now，citizens will have to plant trees on personal property to help reach their canopy coverage goals.In many cases，that means landowners need to take care of those trees since they technically don't belong to the city itself.
   At the end of the day，trees are a good starting point，but we still have so much to learn about how well they work to cool down our hottest cities.

（1）What does the underlined word "toll" in paragraph 1 mean？
A．Cost.
B．Turn.
C．Time.
D．Place.
（2）What is the author's attitude to planting trees to cool cities？
A．Unconcerned.
B．Dissatisfied.
C．Supportive.
D．Confident.
（3）What is the biggest problem of planting trees in cities？
A．Skills of planting trees.
B．Space for planting trees.
C．The high canopy coverage.
D．The unsure tree ownership.
（4）What can be the best title for the text？
A．Heating Cities in the United States
B．A "Green" Solution to Climate Change
C．A Typical Blind Faith in Planting Trees
D．Problems of the Measure to Cool Hot Cities

204375. （2023•铁一中学•高三上期末） Leftover again？Hurray Here's the deal：You're as hungry as a horse and you want a delicious meal from a fine restaurant，but you're a little low on funds．
   So what do you do？If you happen to live in Europe，the answer is as easy as pie：You pull out your smartphone or tablet，and tap Too Good To Go，Europe's most popular app．Approximately 23，000 restaurants and food sellers post their leftover offerings on the app for half their usual cost．
   Why all this incredible generosity？Unbelievably，one-third of the world's food is thrown away，and nearly one billion people don't have enough to eat．Besides，burning wasted food releases harmful carbon dioxide emission into the atmosphere，which contributes to climate change．That's why environment-minded companies around the world are creating apps for phones，tablets，and other smart devices that connect uneaten food with people who want or need it．
   After a long day at work，Anne，a 34-year-old student，pulls out her smartphone and chooses a noodle dish-pasta with mushrooms．Then she heads to a restaurant on the banks of the Spree River，where the owner packs her dinner and also offers her a scoop of free ice cream，which is a reward for bringing her own container．
   Indeed，there are many programs serving the same mission around the world．In America，people are using an app called Food for All．One hour before a restaurant closes，its staff can post leftover meals to the app for up to 80 percent off menu prices．The app also allows customers to donate leftover meals to others．
   In the Netherlands，77，000 people have downloaded an app called NoFoodWasted．This program allows grocery store workers to share products that are approaching their expiration dates with customers who might need them．
   Some countries are taking their commitment to reducing food waste a step further．France and the Czech Republic，for example，have laws that prohibit restaurants and grocery stores from throwing away food．Instead，workers are required to donate that food to charity．
    So think about if there might be a better use for your uneaten vegetables．The planet will thank you．

   Heavyweights （行业巨头） in the traditional storage industry，such as Big Yenow and Access，aren't convinced．A representative from Access told Shaw he was skeptical about storing with "amateurs"．He considered 24/7（全天候） access to the items and better security as the main advantages of his service．
   Stashbee agree that dealing with security concerns is important，but say business success depends more on people overcoming a distrust of strangers we've been taught since childhood．They aren't alone．Companies such as Costockage，Roost and Spacer all run similar storage businesses，and are all relying on a shift in consumer attitudes．
   And the concept of social storage doesn't stop there．CityStasher believe there's a gap in the market for those who want to store things for extremely short periods of time．
   Would you try it out？It's a question of trust．

204080. （2023•西安中学•高一上期末） If English means endless new words，difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation，you are wrong.Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language？
   According to a new study by a British university，learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter.This is the area of the brain which processes information.It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.
   The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr.Andrea Mechelli，from London University，took a group of Britain people who only spoke English.They were compared with a group of "early bilinguals" who had learnt a second language before the age of five，as well as a number of later learners.
   Scanowed that grey matter density in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language，the smaller the difference was.
   "Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language，" said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.
   Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales has researched the link between bilingualism and math skill. "Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible，" he said. "You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."
   The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of 2 and 34.Reading，writing and comprehension were all tested.The resultowed that the younger they started to learn，the better. "Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world，" explained the scientists.

（1）The main subject talked about in this passage is       .
A．science on learning a second language
B．man's ability of learning a second language
C．language can help brain power
D．language learning and math study
（2）In the second paragraph，the writer mentions "exercise" in order to       .
A．say language is also a kind of physical labor
B．prove that one needs more practice when he/she is learning a language
C．show the importance of using the language when you learn the language
D．make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well
（3）In the last two paragraphs，the author wants to tell us that       .
A．learning a second language is the same as studying math
B．early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in study other subjects
C．Italian is the best choice for you as a second language
D．we'd better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to learn a second language

203806. （2024•周至四中•高一上期末） It was a village in India．The people were poor．However，they were not unhappy．After all，their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries．
   Then one day，some visitors from the city arrived．They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog's legs．However，they did not have enough frogs of their own，and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places．
   This seemed like money for nothing．There were millions of frogs in the fields around，and they were no use to the villagers．All they had to do was catch them．Agreement was reached，and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs．Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money．For the first time，the people were able to dream of a better future．But the dream didn't last long．
   The change was hardly noticed at first，but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well．More worrying was that the children fell ill more often，and，there seemed to be more insects around lately．
   The villagers decided that they couldn't just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak．They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides （杀虫剂） and medicines．Soon there was no money left．
   Then the people realized what was happening．It was the frog．They hadn't been useless．They had been doing an important job-eating insects．Now with so many frogs killed，the insects were increasing more rapidly．They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases．
   Now，the people are still poor．But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs．These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning．

203035. （2017•铁一中学•一模） The following passage is adapted from the writings of a Nobel Prize-winning scientist．
   Any scientist who is not a pretender will admit the important part that luck plays in scientific discovery．A colleague and I carried out an experiment in which little tissue fragments（组织碎片），which were very difficult to work with，were injected into mice of different DNA strains．If we had been more experienced，we would have injected only white blood cells （which would have been easier to handle） into the mice．We now know that if we had done this，we would not have made the discovery．Obviously，we were lucky，but our scientific training enabled us to recognize the significance of the accident．
   It might nevertheless seem as if luck plays a significant role in scientific discovery．However，I would like to challenge this view for the following reasons：we sometimes describe as "lucky" a person who wins a prize in a lottery at long odds；but if we describe such an event as luck，what word shall we use to describe the accidental discovery of a lottery ticket that turns out to be the winning one just on a park bench？
   The two cases are quite different．A person who buys a lottery ticket is putting himself or herself in the way of winning a prize．This individual has，so to speak，purchased candidacy（候选资格）for such a turn of events and all the rest is a matter of mathematical probabilities．So it is with scientists．A scientist is anyone who，by observations and experiments conducted，by the literature read，and even by the company kept，puts himself or herself in the way of making a discovery．These individuals，by deliberate action，have enormously enlarged their awareness-their candidacy for good fortune-and will now take into account evidence of a kind that a beginner or a casual observer would probably overlook or misinterpret．
   Nearly all successful scientists have emphasized the importance of preparedness of mind，and I want to emphasize that this preparedness of mind is worked for and paid for by a great deal of effort and reflection．If these efforts lead to a discovery，then I think it would be inappropriate to credit such a discovery to luck．
（1）The outcome of the experiment described in paragraph one suggests that
A．luck play an insignificant part in scientific discovery
B．the injection of only while blood cells allowed the two scientists to make their discovery
C．It was difficult to inject little tissue fragments into mice of different DNT strains
D．the scientists concerned in the experiment were able to benefit from luck
（2）The author uses the example of the lottery winner in order to suggest that
A．blind luck occurs more frequently than people realize
B．luck plays a more important part in most events than people realize
C．luck is not the correct term to use when referring to a significant scientific discovery
D．luck is the best word to be used to describe the accidental discovery in science
（3）The author implies that a scientist achieves " candidacy for good fortune" by
A．making careful and repeated mathematical calculations
B．depending on feelings rather than on scientific research
C．performing enough experiments to increase the statistical probability of success
D．obtaining knowledge that allows him or her to recognize important evidence
（4）The primary purpose of the passage is to
A．make a single definition of luck
B．show that scientists discover what they intend to find
C．compare scientific discovery to a lottery game
D．discuss the role of luck in science

203033. （2017•铁一中学•一模） ONE day I saw a TV advertisement．A couple - she in a black dress，he in a super-stylish shirt and tie - was enjoying a candlelit （烛光的） meal accompanied by romantic music．The location？Pizza Hut．I nearly choked on my tea．
   "What？!" I laughed to my Chinese friend． "Pizza Hut is trying to be all gourmet（美食的）and fashionable？!" My friend looked confused． "But Pizza Hut is fashionable，" she said． " You go there for a special meal．"
   In China，chain restaurants-especially the big multinational ones-are cool．Going to Starbucks，for example，is a status symbol．It not only says， " I'm rich enough to buy this overpriced coffee，" but also， "I'm cosmopolitan（见多识广的）enough to be part of globalization．"
   Where I come from in the UK，however，chains are neither fashionable nor gourmet．Chains are where you go on New Year's Day when nowhere are neither fashionable nor gourmet．Chains are where you go on New Year's Day when nowhere else is open，or when you are 5 years old and your parents can't stand hearing． "I'm hungry!" any longer．In my own case（with regards to McDonald's），a chain is where you are taken on your first "date"．Even at the age of 13，I knew to give the guy the "let's just be friends" phone call the next day．
   In the UK，independent cafes and restaurants are making a comeback on the fashion scene．Nowadays，a Londoner who says "let's meet for a coffee at Monmouth" （an independent café） is much cooler than one says "let's go to Starbucks"，Even if Monmouth's coffee is a little more expensive，there's a satisfaction in knowing your pounds aren't going straight to the big corporations．
   Of course，there are chain stores all over the UK；you can't go five minutes without spotting a Costa Coffee．But numbers do not add up to good taste．I do，however，have a confession．After moving to China I had moments when all the rice and Kung Pao Chicken became too much．I，too，have retreated to McDonald's．Even so，I would never describe my Big Mac as "haute cuisine．"
（1）Many Chinese people like to go to multinational chain restaurants because        ．
A．the restaurants give customers a taste of foreign culture
B．the restaurants offer different food and drinks from other restaurants
C．they believe that eating there will show their wealth and social status
D．these restaurants are perfect places for a romantic date
（2）Which of the following statements is TRUE？
A．The author has grown tired of Chinese food．
B．Branches of Monmouth's café can be found all over the UK．
C．Most independent stores are closed on New Year's Day in the Uk．
D．It is cool in the UK to take your first date to a chain restaurant．
（3）What does the underlined word " haute cuisine" in the last paragraph mean？
A．high-class cookery
B．expensive cookers
C．delicious food
D．a fashionable tradition
（4）What is the main point of the article？
A．The difference between Chinese food and the western food．
B．The comeback of independent cafes and restaurants in the UK
C．What makes chain restaurants gourmet and fashionable both in China and the UK．
D．The different attitudes towards chain restaurants of Chinese and British people．
