【题目】 Online shopping has become more and more popular these years. Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping, according to a study published last week in the US.
For years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women, but during the 2019 holiday season 59 percent of those shopping online were women.
“It shows how popular the Internet is becoming,” said Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project group, which carried out the study. Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men. This is because women traditionally make decisions about spending.
Users were more likely to shop online to save time. Internet users between the ages 19 and 29 were responsible for some of the surprising increase in the online gift buying population this time around.
However, three-quarter of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2019. They worried about credit card security (信用卡安全), or just compared online prices with offline prices, then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals.
“But even if shoppers don't buy online, websites are becoming promotion (促销) tools for stores,” said Dan Hess, vice president of Com Score Network Inc. Hess said that actually most stores' websites can make customers fully believe the security of their credit card numbers. And most are able to ensure that gifts arrive on time.
“It's all about making the shopping experience more efficient (效率高的), more reliable and more comfortable.” Hess said.

本文是一篇说明文。美国上周公布的一项研究显示，在利用互联网进行假日购物方面，女性首次超过了男性。现在网上购物的主流变成了女性为主，文章分析了原因，因为女性是家里购物的做决定的人。同时也告诉我们网络购物人群有年轻化的趋势。
【1】细节理解题。根据第二段For years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women, but during the 2019 holiday season 59 percent of those shopping online were women.可知，多年来，男性比女性更喜欢在网上购物，但在2019年的假日季，网上购物的59%是女性。由此可知，2019年美国在网上购物的女性超过了男性。故选B。
【2】词义猜测题。根据上文However, three-quarter of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2019. They worried about credit card security, or just compared online prices with offline prices可知，2019年美国四分之三的互联网用户不在网上购买节日礼物，他们担忧信用卡的安全，或者只是比较网上的价格与线下的价格。由此可知：经过比较之后，这些用户匆忙（hurried）去商店购买便宜货。故可知划线短语意思为“匆忙”。故选C。
【3】推理判断题。根据最后一段中It's all about making the shopping experience more efficient (效率高的), more reliable and more comfortable.可知，这一切都是为了让购物体验更高效、更可靠、更舒适。由此可推知，Hess认为网上购物是方便的。故选B。
【4】推理判断题。根据第一段中Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping, according to a study published last week in the US.可知，美国上周公布的一项研究显示，在利用互联网进行假日购物方面，女性首次超过了男性。现在网上购物的主流变成了女性为主，文章分析了原因，因为女性是家里购物的做决定的人。同时也告诉我们网络购物人群有年轻化的趋势。由此可推知，文章最有可能来自新闻报道。故选B。
文章出处类推理判断题。做这类题重要的是要抓住文章的内容或结构特征，这是推理判断的前提和基础。如报纸，前面会出现日期、地点、通讯社名称等；广告，其格式特殊，容易辨认；产品说明、器皿设备的使用说明有产品名称或操作方法，而药品的服用说明会告知服用时间、次数和药量等。如第四小题，根据第一段中Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping, according to a study published last week in the US.可知，美国上周公布的一项研究显示，在利用互联网进行假日购物方面，女性首次超过了男性。现在网上购物的主流变成了女性为主，文章分析了原因，因为女性是家里购物的做决定的人。同时也告诉我们网络购物人群有年轻化的趋势。由此可推知，文章最有可能来自新闻报道。故选B。

【题目】Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Einstein's Opinions on Creative Thinking
“The greatest scientists are artists as well,” said Albert Einstein, one of the greatest physicists and an amateur pianist and violinist.
For Einstein, insight did not come from logic or mathematics. 【1】 As he told one friend, “When I examine myself and my methods of thought. I find that the gift of imagination has meant more to me than any talent for absorbing absolute knowledge. All great achievements of science must start from intuitive knowledge. Imagination is more important than knowledge.”
But how did art differ from science for Einstein? Surprisingly, it wasn't the content of an idea, or its subject, that determined whether something was art or science, but how the idea was expressed. If what is seen and experienced is described in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated and recognized intuitively, then it is art. 【2】 That's why he said that great scientists were also artists. Einstein first described his intuitive thought processes at a physics conference in Kyoto in 1922 when he indicated that he used images and feelings to solve his problems and found words, logical symbols or mathematical equations later.
【3】 “If I were not a physicist,” he once said, “I would probably be a musician. I often think in music and I see my life in terms of music. I get most joy in life out of music. Whenever I feel that I have come to the end of the road or into a difficult situation in my work. I would bury myself in music, and that would usually solve all my difficulties.”
Music provided Einstein with a connection between time and space which both combine spatial and structural aspects. “The theory of relativity occurred to me my intuition and music is the driving force behind this intuition”, said Einstein. “My parents had me study the violin from the time I was six. 【4】.”
A.There is no doubt that my theory was a great breakthrough then.
B.Instead, it came from intuition and inspiration
C.For Einstein, it was the humanities that mainly contributed to his achieve-ments.
D.Einstein also owed his scientific insight and intuition mainly to music.
E.My new discovery is the result of musical perception.
F.Einstein himself worked intuitively and expressed himself logically.

【题目】 Atlantic puffins (海雀) spend most of their life at sea. When it's time to lay eggs, the birds gather on seaside cliffs. They dig into the ground to build nests. After a chick was born, it spends six weeks in the nest, feasting on fish supplied by its parents. Then the young bird must look after itself. It leaves the nest and flies to the sea.
But on Heimaey, an island off the coast of Iceland, human-made objects have disrupted the chicks’ trip to the ocean. Luckily, they are getting help from the children of Heimaey.
Instinct tells chicks to follow the light of the moon to the sea, but they are confused by Heimaey’s bright lights. Each year, a large number of them end up lost, or worse. Often, the birds are hit by cars or caught and eaten by cats.
Each breeding season, the children of Heimaey form search parties. They carry flashlights and cardboard boxes. “When you see a bird, you try to corner it and herd it into the box,” said Eldur Hansen. Eldur is 14 and he has caught several puffins this way. Each year, they rescue thousands of chicks. Children take rescued birds home. The next morning, they take them to the beach for release.
Before releasing the chicks, the children make a stop at the local aquarium, where the birds are weighed and tagged for tracking purposes. This helps scientists learn more about puffins.
Atlantic puffins are now listed as a rare species. That means they are likely to become endangered. The main reason is that the ocean’s supply of small fish is diminishing. This is tied to overfishing and rising ocean temperatures.
Erpur Hansen, Eldur Hansen’s dad, is with the South Iceland Nature Research Center. He said the children’s action was more important than ever. Thanks to data gathered with the children’s help, researchers have learned that chicks now weigh less than in previous years. That means they have a lower chance of survival. Researchers worry that puffins will die out if ocean temperatures continue to rise, but the children’s rescue inspires them.
【1】What will a mother puffin do after a chick was born?
A.Catch fish to feed the chick.B.Stay in the nest for six weeks.
C.Leave the nest and fly to the sea alone.D.Lead the chick back to the sea at once.
【2】What may disturb the chicks’ sense of direction on their way to the sea?
A.The cars.B.The children.C.The animals.D.The lights.
【3】What does the underlined word “diminishing” in Paragraph 6 mean?
A.Changing.B.Decreasing.C.Accumulating.D.Abandoning.
【4】How do the researchers compare the chicks’ weight?
A.Getting information from the library.B.Researching the colors of the chicks.
C.Studying the data collected by the children.D.Weighing the chicks adopted at the local aquarium.
