2、el about you.Yet as I selected and read,it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.Youll soon be 84 years old,Dad,and you and I will have had 55 Fathers Days together.I havent always been with you on Fathers Day but Ive always been with you in my heart.You know,Da

3、d,there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap.You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear (档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the 54 Chevy whether you liked it or not.The police

4、officer who sent me home,after you reported the Chevy stolen,didnt have much tolerance for a stubborn 16-year-old girl,while you were so tolerant about it,Dad,and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked,and th

5、ings really turned around when we began making babies right and left.Somewhere along the line,the generation gap disappeared.I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together,rather like a fine wine.But the strangest thing happened last week.I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned t

6、he corner in your car.It didnt immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car.It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere.Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.I guess what Im trying

7、 to say,Dad,is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today.Honoring a father on Fathers Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking.Its about loving someone more than words can say,and its wishing that never had to end.I love you,Dad.Love,Jenny

8、1.How did Jenny probably feel on the night she was sent home by the police?A.Disappointed. B.Nervous.C.Guilty.

11、ly what made it the worst night of my life”可知,在被警察送回家的当晚,Jenny因为父亲对她的宽容而心怀愧疚,故选C项。2.D细节理解题。根据第三段中的“there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap”可知,Jenny和父亲曾因代沟不能很好地了解彼此,故选D项。3.B细节理解题。根据第六段第三句“It didnt immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly

12、and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car.”可知,Jenny在上星期看到父亲时感到奇怪是因为她没有意识到父亲竟然如此衰老,故选B项。4.C推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句可知,当Jenny在挑选父亲节贺卡时,她觉得任何贺卡都不足以写出她内心想对父亲说的话,而且在文章末段Jenny也表达了对父爱的感激之情,故选C项。BIn my first week as a graduate student at Cambridge University in 1964,I met with a fellow student,two years ahead of

13、 me in his studies;he was unsteady on his feet and spoke with great difficulty.This was Stephen Hawking.I learned that he had a bad disease and might not live long enough even to finish his PhD degree.But,amazingly,he has reached the age of 73.Even mere survival would have been a medical miracle,but

14、 of course,he didnt merely survive.He has become arguably the most famous scientist in the world for his brilliant research,for his bestselling books,and,above all,for his astonishing victory over hardship.Stephen received his “death sentence” in 1964,when I thought it was hard for him to go on with

15、 his study.Stephen went from Albans School to Oxford University.He was said to be a “lazy” undergraduate,but his brilliance earned him a first-class degree,an “entry ticket” to a research career in Cambridge and a uniquely inspiring achievement.Within a few years of the burst of his disease he was w

16、heelchair-bound,and his speech was so unclear that it could only be understood by those who knew him well.But his scientific career went from strength to strength:he quickly came up with a series of insights into the nature of black holes (then a very new idea) and how the universe began.In 1974 he

17、was elected to the Royal Society at the exceptionally early age of 32.The great advances in science generally involve discovering a link between phenomena that were previously conceptually unconnectedfor instance,Isaac Newton realized that the force making an apple fall to earth was the same as the

18、force that holds the moon and planets in their orbits.Stephens revolutionary idea about a link between gravity and quantum(量子) theory has still not been tested.However,it has been hugely influential;indeed,one of the main achievements of string theory(弦理论) has been to confirm and build on his idea.H

19、e has undoubtedly done more than anyone else since Einstein to improve our knowledge of gravity and he is one of the top-ten living theoretical physicists.(2015湖南怀化一模)1.What impressed the author most about Stephen Hawking?A.His brilliant research.B.His bestselling books.C.His serious disease.D.His o

20、vercoming difficulties.2.What made Stephen Hawking start his research career at Cambridge?A.His death sentence.B.His “lazy” attitude.C.His above-average talent and ability.D.His rich experience.3.It can be inferred that Stephen Hawking was born .A.in the early 1940s B.in the late 1940sC.in the early

21、 1930s D.in the late 1930s4.What can we learn from the passage?A.Hawkings theory was proved years ago.B.Hawking was not as successful as Newton.C.String theory built on Hawkings idea.D.Hawkings theory has had little influence on others.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文,主要介绍了当代著名的科学家斯蒂芬霍金。身患严重疾病的他早在1964年就被医生判处“死刑”,但他成功

22、活到了70多岁,而且在物理学领域取得了重大的成就。1.D细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“.and,above all,for his astonishing victory over hardship.”可知令作者感受最深的是霍金克服了常人难以战胜的困难,故选D项。2.C细节理解题。根据第三段第三句可知有人说霍金是一个懒学生,但他的聪明让他名列前茅并为他赢得了从事研究事业的“敲门砖”,故选C项。3.A推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“In 1974 he was elected to the Royal Society at the exceptionally early age of 32.”

23、可判断霍金出生于1942年,故选A项。4.C细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“one of the main achievements of string theory has been to confirm and build on his idea”可知,弦理论基于霍金的理论,故C项正确。二、语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)My Italian grandmother was a wonderful woman.I always felt 1.(bless) growing up in her home as a boy.She worked hard,laughed lou

24、d,and was never afraid of what life threw 2. her.When she fell and broke her hip in her eighties,my dad 3.(force) to admit that he could no longer take care of her at home.It was with a heavy heart 4. dad moved grandmother into a nursing home.Our whole family gathered together for her 90th birthday

25、in the nursing home dining room.It was a wonderful 5.(celebrate) of her life and the love we all had for her.Shortly after that birthday,however,life gave her the 6.(tough) challenge of all as age and illness started to take her mind from her too.The dementia(痴呆)grew worse and worse.At times when I

27、nt 10.(peace) back to sleep.I could see then that even though her mind didnt remember me,her spirit still remembered love.1.blessed。根据空前的felt可知空处应用形容词作表语。故空处填blessed“幸福的”。2.at。throw at“投向”,为固定搭配,在此处引申为“生活加诸她身上的”。3.was forced。根据句意可知父亲被迫承认不能再在家照顾奶奶了,用被动语态,又结合全文时态可知,此处用一般过去时。4.that。此处为强调句式,即“it is/was+

28、被强调部分+that+其他”。本句中被强调的是状语with a heavy heart。5.celebration。此处被wonderful修饰,应用名词,故填celebration。6.toughest。根据空格前的the以及后面表示范围的短语of all可知,此处用形容词最高级形式。7.who。此处意为“奶奶不知道我是谁”,用who引导宾语从句。8.me。根据语境可知此处是指作者,作宾语,用人称代词宾格形式。9.holding。此处是非谓语短语作后置定语,表示主动关系,用现在分词。10.peacefully。修饰谓语动词went应用副词形式作状语,所以填peacefully。Part B一
