I hated changing the vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) bag and picking up things the machine did not suck up.Twenty years later, in 1978, I was doing chores at home alongside my wife. One day the vacuum cleaner was screaming away, and I had to empty the bag because I could not find a replacement for it. With this lifelong hatred of the way the machine worked, I decided to make a bagless vacuum cleaner.Easier said than done, of course. I didnt realize that I would spend the next five years perfecting my design, a process that resulted in 5,127 different prototypes (设计原型). By the time I made my 15th prototype, my third child was bor. By 2,627, my wife and I were really counting our pennies. By 3,727, my wife was giving art lessons for some extra cash, and we were getting further and further into debt. These were tough times, but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem.I just had a passion for the vacuum cleaner as a product, but I never thought of going into a business with it. In the early 1980s, I started trying to get licensing agreements for my technology. The reality was very different, however. The major vacuum makers had built a business model based on the profits from bags and filters (滤网). No one would license my idea, not because it was a bad one, but because it was bad for business.That gave me the courage to keep going, but soon after, the companies that I had talked with started making machines like mine. I had to fight legal battles on: both sides of the Atlantic to protect the patents on my vacuum cleaner. However, I was still in financial difficulties until 1993, when my bank manager personally persuaded Lloyds Bank to lend me $1 million. Then I was able to go into production. Within two years, the Dyson vacuum cleaner became a best-seller in Britain.Today, I still embrace risk and the potential for failure as part of the process. Nothing beats the excitement of invention. Go out and brainstorm your ideas. You are not bound to any rules一in fact, the stranger and riskier your idea, the better.24. According to the article, which of the following statements about the writer is NOT true?A. He lost his father during his childhood and lived with his mother.B. He built over five thousand prototypes of the vacuum cleaner between 1978 and 1983.C. Finally, the vacuum cleaner he reinvented became popular with British customers.D. He decided to develop an innovative vacuum cleaner for his wife while in his thirties.25. According to the article, the writers bagless vacuum cleaner was produced in large numbers_。A. in the early 1980sB. after his bank manager agreed to lend him $1 millionC. after he managed to get a $1 million loanD. before he obtained a patent on the product26. It can be inferred from the article that_.A. the writer was a born businessmanB. the writer had no confidence in his vacuum cleaner initiallyC. the writer s invention might have ended up in failure without his: wife.D. the writer s vacuum cleaner was never recognized by other vacuum makers27. According to the article, which of the following would most likely be the writers motto?A. Never be afraid of failure because failure is nothing but the first step to success.B. The foundation stones for a success are honesty, faith, love and loyalty.C. It is only in adventure that some people succeed in knowing themselves.D. If you would ,be wealthy, think of saving as well as getting.CHelping yourself to a cup of coffee may seem like a small, everyday thing. But it is not the case if you are quadriplegic (四肢瘫痪). Quadriplegics have lost the use of all four limbs. Thanks to a project organized by John Donoghue of Brown University, in Rhode Island, and his ，colleagues, quadriplegics have hope.One of the participants in his experiments, a 58-year-old .woman who is paralyzed and unable to use any of her limbs, can now pick up a bottle containing coffee and bring it close enough to her mouth to drink from it using a straw. She does so using a thought-controlled robotic arm fixed to a nearby stand. It is the first time she has managed something like that since she suffered a stroke, nearly 15 years ago.Arms are more complicated pieces of machinery than legs, so controlling them via electrodes. (多波段电极) attached to the skin of someones scalp (头皮) is not yet possible. Instead, brain activity has to be recorded directly. And that is what Dr Donoghue is doing. Dr Donoghue and his team have had small, multichannel electrodes implanted in the parts of the motor cortexes (运动皮质) of participants brains associated with hand movements.Dr Donoghue and his team decoded signals from their participants brains as they were asked to imagine controlling a robotic arm making present movements. The woman and other volunteers were then encouraged to operate one of .two robot arms by thinking about the movements they wanted to happen. When the software controlling the arms detected the relevant signals, the arms moved appropriately. The arm that the woman used to help herself to a drink is a lightweight device developed by DLR, Germans Aerospace Centre, as part of its robotics, program.Dr Donoghue and his colleagues have thus shown that a mechanical arm can be controlled remotely by the brain of a person with paralysis. Controlling an arm that is attached to the individuals body will be trickier, but in time even that may be possible. In the meantime, a robotic arm attached to a wheelchair will be a real soon.28. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph3 refer to?A. Controlling a robotic arm via electrodes attached to the scalp.B. Recording the activity of brain and implanting electrodes.C. Controlling a robotic leg via electrodes attached to the scalp.D. Controlling a mechanical arm attached to the individuals body.29. Which statement may the author agree with?A. Thanks to the research by Dr Donoghue and his colleagues, a paralyzed woman can get herself a drink.B. The woman in the experiment drinks a bottle of coffee with a robotic arm attached to her scalp.C. The woman is encouraged to control the mechanical arm by moving her body.D. The robotic arm the woman used is remoted by DLR.30. Whats the author s attitude to the future of the robotic arm attached to quadriplegic?A. Pessimistic. B. Objective. C. Controversial. D, Optimistic.31. Whats the main idea of the text?A. Quadriplegics can use the artificial limbs developed by Dr Donoghue and lead a good life by themselves.B. The newly -developed thought-controlled robotic arms can help the paralyzed in their daily life.C. Scientists have invented a kind of robotic arm attached to the individuals body.D. A quadriplegic can be on his feet again due to the new invention.DFrom talking robots and video phones to rovers on Mars, technology has become so advanced that the previously impossible seems to occur on a daily basis. And yet - we still have no cure for the common cold.Why cant we stop the common cold? According to Peter Barlow, a scientist at Edinburgh Napier University in the UK, the main challenge lies in the many different types of cold viruses that are produced by the rhinoviruses (鼻病毒). There are at least 160 types. They mutate (突变) so easily that they quickly become resistant to drugs, or learn to hide from our immune systems. In other words, a single cure isnt likely to work on every type of cold.However, researchers from Stanford University and the University of California, San Francisco, have found a possible answer. They discovered a protein that the viruses need. Without it, they cant spread inside your body.To identify the gene which produces the specific protein needed by the viruses, researchers used a gene-editing technique to test all genes in the human genome one by one for thousands of cells. These modified (改变的) cells were then exposed to a range of enteroviruses, including the rhinoviruses which cause the common cold. All the viruses were: unable to replicate (复制) inside cells without a gene that produces a specific protein, called methyltransferase SETD3.Then, they tested genetically modified mice, which were completely unable to produce the protein. The mice were able to live healthy, normal lives without the protein.“Lacking that gene protected the mice completely from viral infection. associate professor Jan Carette, from Stanford, told the BBC.“These mice would always die, but they survived and we saw a very strong reduction in viral replication and very strong protection.Carette said the plan is to find a drug which can temporarily suppress (抑制) the protein, instead of producing genetically modified humans.“We have identified a fantastic target that all enteroviruses and rhinoviruses require and depend on. Take that away and the virus really has no chance. said Carette. “This is a really good first step - the second step is to have a chemical that mimics (模拟) this genetic deletion. he added.32. What does Peter Barlow think is the main problem for prevention of the common cold?A. The slow mutation of some genes.B. The fast speed at which rhinoviruses spread.C. The harm rhinoviruses do to the immune system.D. The wide variety. of cold viruses created by rhinoviruses.33. What can we learn about the protein needed by the viruses?A. It helps the viruses replicate inside our bodies.B. It allows the viruses to mutate easily.C. It helps the viruses become resistant to drugs.D. It accelerates the speed at which the viruses spread.34. What did the researchers discover in their gene- editing study?A. Genetically modified mice died because they lacked the protein.B. The modified cells seemed to protect the mice against viral infections.C. More methyltransferase SETD3 was produced after the cells were modified.D. The gene-editing technique was more effective against enteroviruses than rhinoviruses.35. What do the researchers most probably do next, according to Carette?A. Conduct experiments on genetically modified humans.B. Identify a drug that can help reduce the protein.C. Apply this gene-editing technique to control other viruses.D. Find a chemical that can cure all enteroviruses and rhinoviruses.第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。No matter how hard you work to keep your customers satisfied, you re bound to come up against one or two who have a、 negative experience with your product or service. 36 However, its your job to address the customer s concerns and give them a reason to come back to your brand. Below are the techniques that have worked in calming any angry customer._37_ It may seem like common sense for companies to respond as soon as possible, if not immediately, to an upset customer. The longer that customer has to wait, the angrier theyll get and the more likely they are to write a bad review. A quick acknowledgement and show of concern will go a long way.Just listen. Active listening is an essential skill in managing a team. Its just as important for providing good customer service- especially when someone is upset._ 38_ Then let them know you understand and sympathize with their disappointment.Remain calm and ask them. what they want to happen. If the No.1 rule of customer service is that the customer is always tight, the second rule is to remain calm. Even in the face of angry customers, keeping a level head will have a naturally calming effect on them.Give them the time to explain exactly what they re upset about._ 39_ Sometimes a little compromise might be needed on their part depending upon that solution.Get on the phone. In today s period of social media, customers feel very comfortable airing their frustrations from behind a keyboard. _40_ Most of the time if you call and explain your side- and listen to theirs- you can work things out.A. Respond immediately.B. It may not necessarily be your fault.C. Give them time to express their concerns.D. You might as well ask them questions, too.E. Putting yourself in their shoes can solve problems quickly.F. It is recommended that reaching out to them personally on the phone resolve the issue.G. Ask what they feel is an appropriate solution and do your best to make that happen.第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每题1.5分， 满分30分)My 83-year-old mother was very ill and I had to put my life on hold to look after her.
