It was the in thing at that time and I found every girl had one except me. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials (姓名首字母) in it. I was in heaven.This ring became more special because it was the only thing I would never lose. My ring was always new, even when there was a big fire that burned out (烧毁) almost everything earlier that year.Then, only one month later, I lost it. I took it off before going to bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and looked for it everywhere. But it seemed to have disappeared. Finally, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later, we sold the house and moved away.Years passed, and later I moved twice. I was visiting my parents when Mum told me that she had something for me. It wasnt my birthday. It was not Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving days either. Mum noticed my questioning look. Youll recognize this one, she said, smiling.Then she handed me a small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside. The family who bought our house decided to make some changes about the house. When they moved my old bed, they found the ring in the corner. As it had my initials in it, they realized who had the ring. They asked someone to clean it up carefully before sending it to my mother. And it still fits me. （1）The underlined word in in the first paragraph probably means _.A . 流行的B . 内在的C . 实用的D . 环保的（2）The writer got the ring back on _.A . her birthdayB . on EasterC . on ChristmasD . on a common day（3）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A .

They can sleep for a long time. This kind of winter sleep is called “hibernation”. If an animal moves about a lot, it needs food. Hibernating animals do not need to eat much because they are not moving about. Their hearts(心脏) beat very slowly and they also breathe(呼吸) slowly. They find a place that is sheltered(遮蔽的) from bad weather and where they are out of danger. Their body fat(脂肪) keeps them alive and warm. Some animals, such as bears, may wake up from their hibernation on warm winter days and then quickly go back to sleep again when they see the snow is still thick on the ground. When the weather becomes warmer in spring, the animals start to wake up and look for food. （1）If an animal moves about a lot, it needs _. A . foodB . a shelterC . the sunshineD . winter sleep（2）Hibernating animals dont need to eat because _ keeps them alive and warm. A . the sunshineB . their heartsC . bad weatherD . their body fat（3）Some hibernating animals may _ when they find the snow is still thick on the ground. A . eat some foodB . wake up on winter daysC . quickly go back to sleepD . go out to look for food（4）When the weather becomes _，the hibernating animals start to wake up and look for food. A . cold in winterB . cold in springC . warmer in winterD . warmer in spring14. （8分）阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 How Much Can We Afford to Forget?In 2018, Science magazine asked some young scientists what schools should teach students. Most said students should spend less time memorizing facts and have more space for creative activities. As the Internet grows more powerful, students can access (获得) knowledge easily. Why should they be required to carry so much of it around in their heads?Civilizations (文明) develop through forgetting life skills that were once necessary. In the Agricultural (农业的) Age, a farmer could afford to forget hunting skills. When societies industrialized, the knowledge of farming could be safe to forget. Nowadays, smart machines give us access to most human knowledge. It seems that we no longer need to remember most things. Does it matter?Researchers have recognized several problems that may happen. For one, human beings have biases (偏见), and smart machines are likely to increase our biases. Many people believe smart machines are necessarily correct and objective, but machines are trained through a repeated testing and scoring process. In the process, human beings still decide on the correct answers.Another problem relates to the ease of accessing information. When there were no computers, efforts were required to get knowledge from other people, or go to the library. We know what knowledge lies in other brains or books, and what lies in our heads. But today, the Internet gives us the information we need quickly. This can lead to the mistaken beliefthe knowledge we found was part of what we knew all along.In a new civilization rich in machine intelligence, we have easy access to smart memory networks where information is stored. But dependency on a network suggests possibilities of being harmed easily. The collapse of any of the networks of relations our well-being (健康) depends upon, such as food and energy, would produce terrible results. Without food we get hungry; without energy we feel cold. And it is through widespread loss of memory that civilizations are at risk of falling into a dark age.We forget old ways to free up time and space for new skills. As long as the older forms of knowledge are stored somewhere in our networks, and can be found when we need them, perhaps theyre not really forgotten. Still, as time goes on, we gradually but unquestionably become strangers to future people.（1）Why are smart machines likely to increase our biases? A . Because they go off course in testing and scoring.B . Because we control the training process on them.C . Because we offer them too much information.D . Because they overuse the provided answers.（2）The ease of accessing information from the Internet _. A . frees us from making efforts to learn new skillsB . prevents civilizations from being lost at a high speedC . misleads us into thinking we already knew the knowledgeD . separates the facts we have from those in the smart machines（3）The word collapse in Paragraph 5 probably means _. A . a sudden failureB . the basic ruleC . a disappointing startD . the gradual development（4）What is the writers main purpose in writing this passage? A . To question about the standards of information storage.B . To discuss our problems of communication with machines.C . To stress the importance of improving our memorizing ability.D . To remind us of the risk of depending on machines to remember.四、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共5分)15. （5分）信息归纳Memories about TeachersRecently we made a survey (调查)and asked a large number of people to tell us about their teachers.
