When Albert was five years old,his father gave him a compass.Albert was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction—the north.He asked his father and his uncle what caused the needle to move.Their answers were difficult for Albert to understand.Yet he spent a lot of time thinking about them.He said later that he felt something must be hidden behind things. Albert didn’t like school.The German schools of that time were not pleasant.Students couldn’t ask questions.Albert said he felt as if he were in prison.

Albert wanted to teach mathematics and physics.He graduated with honours,but it was a pity that he could not get a teaching job. 28.According to paragraph 2,we can learn that Albert Einstein A.was interested in the compass B.wanted to be a great scientist C.was not clever enough D.didn't like thinking by himself 答案A 解标推理判断题。根据第二段中的Albert was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction-一the north.”可知,爱因斯坦对指南针很感兴趣。故选A 项。 29.Why did Albert Einstein hate school? A.He couldn't play with his friends there. B.Students were not allowed to ask questions. C.The schools were like prisons at that time. D.He had to learn mathematics that he didn'tlike. 含案B 解析细节理解题。根据第三段中的The German schools of that time were not pleasant..Students couldn’t ask questions..”可知,德国学校不允许学生问问题,因此,爱因斯坦不喜欢学校。故选B项。 30.What does the underlined word"complex"probably mean? A.Useful. B.Difficult C.Boring. D.Interesting. 客案B 解析词义猜测题。根据本句He was studying the complex mathematics of calculus while all his friends were still studying simple mathematics.”说明该词与simple是反义词。difficult“困难的”符合语境。故 选B项。 31.We can learn from the passage that A.Einstein became a mathematics teacher after graduation B.Einstein gradually loved mathematics with his uncle's help C.Einstein's uncle was a policeman D.Einstein liked playing with other children 含案B 解析推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二、三段内容可知他的叔叔教他如何学习数学,他是在叔叔的影 响下喜欢上数学的。故选B项。 9

The findings:Women who reported sitting for more than six hours per day had an approximately 40 higher all-cause death rate than those who reported less than three hours a day,and men had an approximately 20 higher death rate Well,now's a fine time to get this information.But why didn't they tell me this years ago?I would have planned on taking a more active job instead of the sedentary(需要久坐的)job of an editor. So what can you do if you have to work for a living at a job that requires a lot of sitting?Here are some ideas: First,take frequent breaks.It is recommended that workers vary activities,change their position,and take short breaks every 20 minutes to rest muscles and increase blood circulation.Second,get a standing desk.Some studies have shown that working from an upright position may be better for health.The serious fitness people can even purchase a treadmill()desk.It only goes about one mile per hour.Third,have a walking meeting.If your group is kind of small,going for a walk while discussing topics is a good alternative. 32.According to the text,the study in 2010 A.found men reporting shorter sitting time than women B.surveyed more men than women on their daily sitting time C.identified fewer deaths in men than in women during the 14-year follow-up D.discovered correlation between sitting and physical health in men and in women 答案D 解析细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“The American Journal of Epidemiology did a study in2010on the correlation between sitting and an individual's physical health..”可知,《美国流行病学杂志》在 2010年做了一个关于久坐和个人身体健康关联的研究调查。故选D项。 33.We can infer from the text that the author did not recommend A.using a standing desk B.resting one's muscles C.quitting sedentary jobs D.taking a walk while discussing 答案c 解桐推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,作者建议那些长时间坐着工作的人使用立式办公桌,放松肌肉 或者边走边讨论,并没有提到放弃久坐不动的工作。故选C项。 34.What does the underlined word"subjects"in paragraph 2 mean? A.Things being discussed. 10
