We often describe “spring”as a time of rebirth，renewal and awakeningMany trees are blossoming and early flowers are pushing through the earth. Things are ing to life!But the word“spring”is not just a seasonIt is also a verb that means something going on or ing out quicklyWhen you put“spring”and“life”together，you will get“spring to life”This expression means something suddenly bees very active or perhaps seems more alive! You may“spring to life”after hearing that a distant friend will be visiting youOr maybe your favorite soccer team finally“sprang to life”in the second half，played well and won the matchNow，besides being a season and a verb，the noun“spring”refers to a metal coil(线圈)that is wound tightlyWhen the coil unwinds，it often jumpsSo，we often say a person“has a spring in his step”if he is lively and activeHe might even appear to jump，or bounce a little when he walksThere is another way we use“spring”as a descriptionIn the case of a“spring chicken”“spring”means youngHowever，“spring chicken”is also an informal，humorous way to refer to someone who isnt young at a11So，we use this expression in the negative form，as in“no spring chicken”For example，lets say you know an 85-year-old man who decides to run a marathon，even though he has never exercised beforeYou could say，“Thats amazing! After all，hes no spring chicken”But be careful when using this expressionIt could be a little disrespectfulLets say your boss shows you a picture of his wife，and you say，“Wow，shes no spring chicken”That response would be disrespectful and a bad career move28.

What is the passage mainly about?AThe origin of the word“spring”.BSome characteristics of the season“spring”.CThe meaning of the season“spring”.DSome expressions with the word“spring”.DYoull probably never go to Mars or sing on the stage with the Rolling StonesBut if virtual reality(VR)ever lives up to its promise，you might be able to do all these thingsand many morewithout even leaving your homeUnlike real reality，virtual reality means simulating(模仿)bits of our worldApart from games and entertainment，its long been used for training airline pilots and surgeons and for helping scientists to figure out plex problems such as the structure of protein molecules(分子)Then how does it work?Close your eyes and think of virtual reality and you probably picture something like this：a man wearing a wrap-around headset and data gloves wired into a powerful workstation or superputerWhat distinguishes VR from an ordinary puter experience is the nature of the input and outputWhere an ordinary puter uses things like a keyboard，a mouse，or speech recognition for input，VR uses sensors that detect how your body is movingAnd where a PC displays output on a screen，VR uses two screens(one for each eye)，surroundsound speakers，and maybe some forms of touch and body feedback as wellVR has been routinely used by scientists，doctors，dentists，engineers，architects，archaeologists，and the military for about the last 30 yearsDifficult and dangerous jobs are hard to train forHow can you safely practice taking a trip to space，making a parachute jump，or carrying out brain surgery? All these things are obvious candidates for virtual reality applicationsLike any technology，virtual reality has both good and bad pointsCritics always raise the risk that people may be addicted to alternative reality to the point of ignoring their realworld livesbut that criticism has been leveled on everything from radio and TV to puter games and the InternetLike many technologies，VR takes little or nothing away from the real world：you dont have to use it if you dont want to.32What equipment do we probably need for virtual reality?AA keyboard，a headset and a superputerBA headset，data gloves and a superputerCA keyboard，a mouse and speech recognitionDA headset，data gloves and speech recognition33Paragraph 3 is mainly about_Athe history of virtual realityBthe principles of virtual realityCthe applications of virtual realityDthe influences of virtual reality34According to the passage，virtual reality means_Aimagining beautiful things in our mindBcreating something that doesnt existCcloning something that has died outDexperiencing things that dont really exist 35What is the writers attitude towards VR?AAppreciative BCautiousCSkepticalDIndifferent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。These days when someone says a puter has a bug(小虫子)in it，usually they mean that theres a problem with one of its programsMaybe your puter crashed when you were in the middle of a game. 36 But back in the early days of puters，a woman named Grace Hopper was part of the team that discovered the very first puter bug 37 She had been invited to help program a new puter，the job of which was to quickly deal with the math problems ships used to find their way 38 Then it translated the patterns of holes into the math problems it was supposed to solve One afternoon in 1947 Hopper and her team were running a programBut the puter wasnt giving them the right result. 39 They finally ended up taking the puter apart，looking for problemsWhat did they find?
