Fr thse whse hearts ften g ff beat, pacemakers (心脏起搏器) are life savers. By prviding a small electrical supprt at the right mment, they can keep a heart wrking prperly.
Their main prblem is that they use batteries. Even the best f them will run ut f energy and changing the batteries requires peratins. Since peratins are usually best avided, the search has been n fr lng-lasting batteries. Different chices have been explred fr a lng time. Tday, pacemakers with lithium (锂) batteries last between 5 and 15 years.
Zhang Ha, frm Shanghai Secnd Military Medical University, and Yang Bin, frm Shanghai Jia Tng University, tried a way t refill a pacemaker’s battery with electricity (电) by getting energy frm inside the bdy. They reprt in the magazine ACS Nan that they have als used the heart muscle (肌肉) itself t wrk. Earlier effrts by ther scientists t use heart muscle pwer t run pacemakers depend n piezelectric materials (压电材料). These materials can be cnnected t a beating heart and prduce electricity when they are slightly defrmed (弯曲). This has wrked, but nt well enugh: the utput has rarely been ver 5 micrwatts (微瓦), while mst pacemakers require at least ten.
Dr Zhang and Dr Yang believed that they culd imprve matters by making their piezelectric materials mre dramatically defrmed, and then prduce 15 micrwatts, because the mre defrmed, the mre electricity will be prduced. They put their idea t the test in a 50kg pig. It made enugh electricity fr the pacemaker t wrk as expected.
Whether such an idea will pass human tests remains t be seen. But if it des, the days f pacemakers that need battery changes thrugh peratins may nt last lng.
30. Accrding t the first tw paragraphs, what is a prblem with pacemakers?
A They ften g ff beat.
B. Their energy can be used up.
C. Operatins ften influence them.
D. They smetimes d harm t hearts.
31. Frm this passage, what d we knw abut piezelectric materials?
A. They can be used t prduce electricity.
B They can defrm the heart t make it beat faster.
C. They were first used by Zhang Ha and Yang Bin.
D. They were prved t prduce 15 micrwatts in human tests.
32. What des the wrd “dramatically” in the 4th paragraph mst prbably mean?
A. Cmfrtably.B. Safely.C. Greatly.D. Rapidly.
33. What is the best title fr this article?
A. N Need t Use Pacemakers
B. The Prblem with Piezelectric Materials
C. The Cntributin f Chinese Scientists t Heart Operatins
D. Chinese Scientists Fund a New Way t Imprve Pacemakers
【答案】30. B 31. A 32. C 33. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍中国科学家发现了一种改进心脏起搏器的新方法。若成功，将有望终结起搏器需手术更换电池的时代。
【30题详解】
句意：根据前两段内容，心脏起搏器的问题是什么？A. 它们经常心跳不齐。B. 它们的能量会耗尽。C. 手术经常对它们产生影响。D. 它们有时会对心脏造成伤害。细节理解题。根据短文“Their main prblem is that they use batteries. Even the best f them will run ut f energy, and changing the batteries requires peratins.”可知心脏起搏器的问题是电池会耗尽电量，故选B。
【31题详解】
句意：从这篇文章中，我们对压电材料有什么了解？A. 它们可用于发电。B. 它们能使心脏变形以加快跳动速度。C. 它们最初由张浩和杨斌使用。D. 经人体测试证明，它们能产生 15 微瓦的电量。细节理解题。根据短文“These materials can be cnnected t a beating heart and prduce electricity when they are slightly defrmed (弯曲).”可知这些材料在轻微弯曲时，能够与跳动的心脏相连并产生电能，所以压电材料可以被用来发电。故选A。
【32题详解】
句意：第四段中 “dramatically” 一词最可能是什么意思？A. 舒适地。B. 安全地。C. 大大地。D. 快速地。词句猜测题。根据短文“because the mre defrmed, the mre electricity will be prduced”可知因为变形程度越大，产生的电量就越多；可推测出“dramatically”意为“显著地”，与“greatly”意思相近。故选C。
【33题详解】
句意：这篇文章的最佳标题是什么？A. 无需使用心脏起搏器B. 压电材料的问题C. 中国科学家对心脏手术的贡献D. 中国科学家找到改进心脏起搏器的新方法。最佳标题题。全文围绕张浩、杨斌团队利用心肌和压电材料为起搏器供电的创新方案展开，符合文章核心内容，为最佳标题。故选D。

Creativity is hard t describe. On the ne hand, we knw peple make creative breakthrughs when they have persistence (坚持). On the ther hand, mst f us give up when we get stuck n a prblem, believing that ur creativity gets weaker ver time.
In fact, research shws that the lnger we stick t a single prblem r task, the mre creative we get. One key reasn fr this is the “series rder effect (效应).” That is t say, each later creative idea is always better than the previus (之前的) ne.
Sme business cmpanies fail t understand this pint. Silicn Valley (硅谷) prizes yuth ver experience, believing that “peple under 35 are thse wh make changes happen” while “peple ver 45 cannt create new ideas.” But many businessmen succeed in their 40s and beynd because they have repeatedly failed. The creatrs f the tp highest-grwth new cmpanies are, in fact, arund 45 years ld.
Scientific talents shw a similar feature. Scientists usually d their best wrk near age 40. Nbel Prize winners and inventrs als d much f their best wrk frm their late 30s t mid-40s. Early success is great because it’s unusual, but the best way t achieve a breakthrugh is t get stuck and get unstuck ver and ver again.
The “series rder effect” wrks nt just at the persnal level but als at the level f cmpanies and markets. Different frm the belief in business that yu have t be first, many f the mst successful cmpanies are thse that have gne thrugh early failures. Fr example, Ggle succeeded after twenty-tw failures. Success can cme when yu have tried tw, three, r even twenty-tw times. Nvelty (原创能力) is vervalued.
Persistence, hwever, is undervalued (低估). S, the next time yu’re stuck, remember: “Yu’re mre creative than yu think yu are.”
34. Which f the examples ges against the writer’s pint f view (观点)?
A. Silicn Valley.
B. The creatrs f the tp highest-grwth new cmpanies.
C. Scientific talents like Nbel Prize winners.
D. Ggle.
35. What can we knw abut the “series rder effect” frm the 5th paragraph?
A. It desn’t wrk fr big businesses.
B. It prves nvelty is unnecessary.
C. It shws the imprtance f a gd beginning.
D. It explains why failure is cmmn and acceptable.
36. What is the main idea f this article?
A. Creativity is hard t describe.
B. Creativity becmes weaker as time ges.
C. Creativity is undervalued.
D. Creativity cmes frm persistence.
【答案】34. A 35. D 36. D
【解析】
【导语】本文围绕 “创造力与坚持的关系” 展开论述，通过案例证明坚持和反复试错是突破创造力瓶颈的关键，指出 “原创能力被高估，而坚持被低估”。
【34题详解】
句意：下列哪个例子与作者的观点相悖？A. 硅谷B. 顶尖高增长新公司的创始人C. 像诺贝尔奖得主这样的科研人才D. 谷歌。细节理解题。根据短文“Silicn Valley (硅谷) prizes yuth ver experience, believing that ‘peple under 35 are thse wh make changes happen’ while ‘peple ver 45 cannt create new ideas.’”可知硅谷重视年轻人而非经验，认为 35 岁以下的人才能推动变革，45 岁以上的人无法产生新想法，这与作者 “坚持比年龄更重要” 的观点直接相悖。故选A。
【35题详解】
句意：从第五段中，我们能了解到关于 “系列顺序效应” 的什么信息？A. 它对大企业无效。B. 它证明原创能力是不必要的。C. 它体现了良好开端的重要性。D. 它解释了为什么失败是普遍且可接受的。细节理解题。根据短文“Different frm the belief in business that yu have t be first, many f the mst successful cmpanies are thse that have gne thrugh early failures. Fr example, Ggle succeeded after twenty-tw failures.

Mst seagulls dn’t truble themselves t learn mre than the simplest facts f flight—hw t get fd and cme back. Fr mst seagulls, it is nt flying that matters, but eating. Fr this seagull, hwever, flight is much mre imprtant than eating. Mre than anything else, Jnathan Seagull lved t fly.
This kind f thinking, he fund, is nt the way t make neself ppular with ther birds. Even his parents were unhappy.
“See here, Jnathan,” said his father nt unkindly. “Winter isn’t far away. If yu dn’t study hw t get fd, yu might die f hunger in the future. Flying is all very well, but yu can’t eat flight, yu knw.”
Jnathan understd what his father meant. Fr the next few days he tried t act like the ther seagulls; he really tried, screaming and fighting with ther seagulls fr fish and bread. But he culdn’t make it wrk.
“It’s all s wrthless,” he thught, “I culd be spending all this time learning t fly. There’s s much t learn”
It wasn’t lng befre Jnathan Seagull was ff by himself again, far ut at sea, hungry, happy, learning. The subject was speed, and in a week’s practice he learned mre abut speed than the fastest seagull alive.

44. N, he wn’t. He can fly fastest s he can get fd faster than ther seagulls./Yes, he will. Althugh he can fly fastest, he still desn't knw hw t get fd.
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了海鸥乔纳森与众不同的追求：将飞行本身视为最高热爱，痴迷于学习飞行技巧。
【41题详解】
句意：乔纳森・西格尔（海鸥）最喜欢做什么？根据第二段最后一句 “Mre than anything else, Jnathan Seagull lved t fly.”（乔纳森・西格尔最爱的莫过于飞行。），“mre than anything else” 直接对应题干中的 “like ding mst”，可知，Jnathan最热爱飞翔，故答案为He liked flying/t fly mst.
【42题详解】
句意：父亲说 “你不能吃飞行” 是什么意思？父亲说这句话的前提是 “Winter isn’t far away. If yu dn’t study hw t get fd, yu might die f hunger in the future.”（冬天不远了，如果你不学习如何获取食物，将来可能会饿死。）。由此可知，“yu can’t eat flight”（你不能吃飞行）是父亲用通俗的方式提醒乔纳森：飞行虽好，但不能替代食物，希望他重视学习觅食，认识到食物的重要性。故答案为He wished Jnathan t study hw t get fd/ t knw the imprtance f fd.
【43题详解】
句意：乔纳森认为和别人争抢食物怎么样？根据第六段乔纳森的内心想法 “It’s all s wrthless,” he thught, “I culd be spending all this time learning t fly.”（“这一切都毫无意义，” 他想，“我本可以把这些时间都用来学习飞行。”），其中 “it” 指代前文 “screaming and fighting with ther seagulls fr fish and bread”（和其他海鸥争抢鱼和面包），因此他认为争抢食物是 “毫无价值 / 意义的”。故答案为It was wrthless/meaningless/nt meaningful.
【44题详解】
句意：你认为乔纳森最终会饿死吗？为什么会或为什么不会？本题属于开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案：N, he wn’t. He can fly fastest s he can get fd faster than ther seagulls./Yes, he will. Althugh he can fly fastest, he still desn’t knw hw t get fd.

52. hbbies

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了作者与书法结缘并从中受益的经历。
【45题详解】
句意：那里那些优美的文字如此熠熠生辉，我立刻就被它们所打动。句中主语 “I” 与谓语 “tuch”（触动）之间是被动关系，且前半句时态为一般过去时，因此需用一般过去时的被动语态，结构为 “was/were + 过去分词”。主语为第一人称单数，故答案为was tuched。
【46题详解】
句意：于是，我决定也用同样的方式去尝试一下。此处强调 “亲自、独自”，需用反身代词作主语 “I” 的同位语。“I” 的反身代词为 “myself”，故答案为myself。
【47题详解】
句意：握着那支柔软的毛笔并控制好墨水似乎很困难。句中 “hlding the sft brush”（握软毛笔）是动词短语，需用副词修饰动作的方式（“正确地握笔”）。“crrect”（形容词，正确的）的副词形式为 “crrectly”，故答案为crrectly。
【48题详解】
句意：然而，通过不断练习和保持耐心，我的情况有所改善。前一句提到 “握笔和控墨似乎很难”（挑战），后一句说 “通过练习和耐心，我有所进步”（进步），前后为转折关系。空格后有逗号，需用表示转折的副词 “Hwever”（然而），故答案为Hwever。
【49题详解】
句意：自从我开始练习书法技巧以来，我对汉字有了更多的了解。句中 “Since I began...”（自从我开始……）是现在完成时的标志词，强调 “从过去开始的动作持续到现在，并对现在有影响”（从开始练习到现在，已经了解了更多汉字知识）。现在完成时结构为 “have/has + 过去分词”，主语 “I” 用 “have”，“learn” 的过去分词为 “learned” 或 “learnt”，故答案为have learned/have learnt。
【50题详解】
句意：作为中国传统文化的瑰宝，书法如今已被许多人所习练。此处需用介词 “as” 表示 “作为”，引导身份或属性，句首首字母大写。故答案为As。
【51题详解】
句意：书法不仅是一种书写技能，更是一种能够塑造我们心灵和性格的艺术形式。句中 “writing skill”（书写技能）是可数名词单数，且表示泛指 “一种书写技能”，“writing” 以辅音音素开头，需用不定冠词 “a” 修饰，故答案为a。
【52题详解】
句意：现在，书法已成为我的一项有助于放松身心的爱好。句中 “ne f...”（…… 之一）后接可数名词复数形式，表示 “众多爱好中的一个”。“hbby”（爱好）的复数为 “hbbies”，故答案为hbbies。
【53题详解】
句意：我也为自己的作品不断进步而感到自豪。句中 “am” 是系动词，后接形容词作表语。“pride”（名词，自豪）的形容词形式为 “prud”（自豪的），“be prud t d sth.”（为做某事而自豪）是固定搭配，故答案为prud。
【54题详解】
句意：每当春节来临，我的母亲总会喜欢把我写的“福”字贴在门上。“enjy ding sth.”（喜欢做某事）是固定搭配，其后接动名词作宾语。“stick”（粘贴）的动名词形式为 “sticking”，故答案为sticking。
