【题目】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
Henry Ford, the famous U.S. inventor and car manufacturer, once said, “The business of America is business.” By this he meant that the U.S. way of life is based on the values of the business world.
Few would argue with Ford’s statement. A brief glimpse at a daily newspaper vividly shows how much people in the United States think about business. For example, nearly every newspaper has a business section, in which the deals and projects, finances and management, stock prices and labor problems of corporations are reported daily. In addition, business news can appear in every other section. Most national news has an important financial aspect to it. Welfare, foreign aid, the federal budget, and the policies of the Federal Reserve Bank are all heavily affected by business. Moreover, business news appears in some of the unlikeliest places. The world of arts and entertainment is often referred to as“the entertainment industry”or“show business.”
The positive side of Henry Ford’s statement can be seen in the prosperity that business has brought to U.S. life. One of the most important reasons so many people from all over the world come to live in the United States is the dream of a better job. Jobs are produced in abundance because the U.S. economic system is driven by competition. People believe that this system creates more wealth, more jobs, and a materially better way of life.
The negative side of Henry Ford’s statement, however, can be seen when the word business is taken to mean big business. And the term big business—referring to the biggest companies, is seen in opposition to labor. Throughout U.S. history working people have had to fight hard for higher wages, better working conditions, and the fight to form unions. Today, many of the old labor disputes are over, but there is still some employee anxiety. Downsizing—the laying off of thousands of workers to keep expenses low and profits high—creates feelings of insecurity for many.
【1】The United States is a typical country ________.
A. which encourages free trade at home and abroad
B. where people’s chief concern is how to make money
C. where all businesses are managed scientifically
D. which normally works according to the federal budget
【2】The influence of business in the U.S. is evidenced by the fact that ________.
A. most newspapers are run by big businesses
B. even public organizations concentrate on working for profits
C. Americans of all professions know how to do business
D. even arts and entertainment are regarded as business
【3】Henry Ford’s statement can be taken negatively because ________.
A. working people are discouraged to fight for their fights
B. there are many industries controlled by a few big capitalists
C. there is a conflicting relationship between big corporations and labor
D. public services are not run by the federal government
【4】A company’s efforts to keep expenses low and profits high may result in ________.
A. reduction in the number of employees
B. improvement of working conditions
C. fewer disputes between labor and management
D. a rise in workers’ wages

【题目】阅读理解。
Researchers around the world have been trying their hand at making better use of the huge amount of wind energy available in nature to produce clean energy．Apart from this，studies are being carried out to harness(利用) usable wind energy produced by man-made technologies．
One useful source identified by Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan about two years ago is a speeding train，which produces fierce wind that can be transformed into electricity．
According to Pradhan’s proposal，with a few small improvements in existing trains running in Mumbai，the largest city in India，at least 10，000 megawatts(兆瓦) of electricity could be harvested each day．
Building on this principle，designers Ale Leonetti Luparinia and Qian Jiang from Yanko Design have created a device(装置) called T-Box that harnesses wind energy from speeding trains．
T-Box can be placed within the railway tracks．It is half-buried underground between the concrete sleepers(水泥枕木)，which does not disturb the normal train operating at all．According to Yanko，around 150 T-Boxes can be fitted along a 1，000-meter railway track．
A train running at a speed of 200 kph can produce winds blowing at 15 miles a second．Based on this calculation，150 T-Boxes can produce 2．6 KWH of electricity per day．The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in last year’s Lite-On Awards and was exhibited last summer at the Xue Xue Institute in Taipei，Taiwan Province．
Though the figures look impressive，it is important to remember that the design is still at a conceptual stage and hasn’t taken into account issues such as pieces of waste material produced by the device and the efforts and costs involved in the maintenance(维护) of the device．
We can expect the technology to see the light of the day only after it clears these issues．If so，rail travel，one of the greenest forms of travel，will become greener and 【1】What can we learn about T-Box?
A．It will be fitted on the trains．
B．It is based on Pradhan’s idea．
C．It can turn electricity into light．
D．It was invented by an Indian scientist．
【2】How much electricity can be produced per day by T-Boxes along a railway track of 100km?
A．260 KWH． B．2．6 KWH．
C．150 KWH． D．1．5 KWH．
【3】It can be concluded from the last two paragraphs that ______．
A．T-Box has proved to be effective in harvesting wind
B．the maintenance of T-Box will be costly
C．there is much to do about T-Box
D．T-Box will come into use soon
【4】According to the passage，which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．The Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan invented the speeding train．
B．The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in Lite-On Awards last year．
C．Rail travel has become one of the energy-efficient technologies in the world．
D．The India harvests 10，000 megawatts of electricity each day on average．
【5】The passage is mainly written to _______．
A．encourage more people to travel by train
B．explain the advantages of electricity
C．tell readers how to save energy and money
D．introduce a new invention to readers

【题目】Over 40 years ago, a country music DJ convention (大会) was held every year in Nashville, Tennessee. Many country performers used to attend (参加) the convention to give their performances.

【题目】阅读理解。
Chinese female scientist Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Prize in medicine on October 5 for her discoveries concerning a novel treatment against malaria (疟疾). This is the first Nobel Prize given to a Chinese scientist for work carried out within China.
Tu shared the prize with Irishborn William Campbell and Satoshi Omura of Japan, who were honored for their revolutionary antiroundworm treatment. 84yearold Tu is awarded this prize for her contribution to cutting the death rate of malaria, reducing patients' suffering and promoting mankind's health. Although she received several medical awards in the past, the 2015 Nobel Prize is definitely the most privilege reward that recognizes Tu's dedication and perseverance in discovering artemisinin (青蒿素), the key drug that battles malariafriendly parasites (寄生虫).
However, her route to the honor has been anything but traditional. She won the Nobel Prize for medicine, but she doesn't have a medical degree or a PhD. In China, she is even being called the “threenoes” winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she's never worked overseas. No wonder her success has stirred China's national pride and helped promote confidence of native Chinese scientists.
The fact that Tu has none of these three backgrounds reminds us that science should be more accessible to all. One shall be able to become a scientist no matter what kind of background he or she comes from, as long as one dives into scientific research. There have been discussions on people who really love science but are never able to achieve much during span>their whole life. Their contributions can never be ignored. They work so hard to prove the wrong way so that the future researchers will be closer to the right one.
As the first Chinese mainland Nobel Prize Winner of natural science award, Tu's recordbreaking winning also serves as a reminder to those who are too eager for instant success. Science is never about instant success. Tu spent decades on scientific research before its value is officially acknowledged. There is no way to measure how much one devotes to science and compare it with how much reward he or she may get.
【1】We can know from the text that ________.
A．Tu worked at home and abroad to conduct her research
B．Tu got the Nobel Prize for her antiroundworm treatment
C．the Nobel Prize is the first award to recognize her work
D．her discovery of artemisinin has helped to cut malaria death rate
【2】The author seems to agree that a person who is more likely to become a scientist is the one with________.
A．a sense of national pride
B．relevant academic knowledge
C．a desire to achieve success
D．enthusiasm for scientific research
【3】In writing the passage, the author intends to________.
A．inform readers of the news and make comments
B．discourage the pursuit of instant success in science
C．remind readers of the principles of scientific research
D．praise the award winner and encourage scientific research
