22、 In the 11th century, nearly 500 years before Leonardo da Vinci drew a similar flying machine, a young monk called Eilmer fixed wings to his hands and feet and jumped off a tower at Malmesbury Abbey in England. After he had glided tote than 200 metres, a gust of wind caught him, and he crashed, breaking both legs.
Eilmer's courage seems to show much about the Middle Ages, as Seb Falk, a historian, presents them in The Light Ages. It shows scientific curiosity and experimental spirit, much of which appeared in religious institutions. There were a lot of dead ends, but there was progress too. And that period of time doesn't deserve to be tainted as “the Dark Ages”.
A deeply rooted prejudice holds that nothing much happened in the Middle Ages. Mr. Falk sets out to doubt it. He acknowledged that medieval science was not the same as the modern kind. Astronomy was the most important discipline, but astrology was respectable too, and it turned into magic. Monks worked to understand "a living universe created by God". But were the methods really so different? Facing the unknown, human beings created a mass of theories that gradually got reduced through observation and experiment. That described medieval science as much as today's.
The mechanical clock, spectacles, advances in navigation-these were among the achievements of the Middle Ages. Medieval astronomers produced a theory that influenced Galileo Galilei in the 17th century. By then Nicolaus Copernicus overturned everything they held dear, by placing the sun at the centre of the universe; but he couldn't have done so without their achievements.
【1】What is the author's main purpose of mentioning Eilmer's deed in the first paragraph?
A.To tell how fearless the young monk was.
B.To give a look into the science in the Middle Ages.
C.To show the severe effects of an unsuccessful experiment.
D.To explain the reason why Eilmer failed in the experiment.
【2】What is the author's possible attitude towards the science of the Middle Ages?
A.Doubtful. B.Unclear. C.Positive. D.Negative.
【3】The third paragraph implies that _______________.
A.the medieval science is completely the same as the modern kind
B.the modern science is much more advanced than the medieval kind
C.there is no similarity between the medieval science and the modern kind
D.the medieval science does have something in common with the modern kind
【4】Which of the following might be the topic of the text?
A.The masterpiece of Seb Falk. B.The inventions in the Middle Ages.
C.The opinions about medieval science. D.The guesses of medieval astronomers.
23、Are plants intelligent？Science is beginning to think so. In 2013, The New Yorker published an article that set the plant sciences world on fire, forever changing the way both the public and researchers looked at and studied the plant kingdom. The “Intelligent Plant” was previously unheard of. 【1】 But fast forward to 2019, there are now dozens of research papers and hours of video prepared and published by plant biologists discussing so many facts of plant intelligence.【2】
Communication: A lot of evidence suggests that plants, trees in particular, can communicate with one another 【3】 It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. The idea of plants forming such a relationship to interact is considered as an evolutionary outcome.
Learning: 【4】 What if plants can learn from experiences like the dogs？The scientists designed experiments, whose goal was to prove whether plants could learn, an idea that seemed impossible. Ultimately, they succeeded in not only their experiments, but also in proving that plants can actually learn.
Memory: As research and experiment continue into the plant memory, people can’t help but ask the question “how can something without a brain have memories？” Studies have determined that plants can indeed learn and create memories. 【5】
Figuring out the “plant brain” question is the logical next step. As more research comes in, the more it seems to indicate plant intelligence as a very real possibility.
A．Can plants be taught？
B．Can they remember things in general？
C．This communication occurs through underground networks.
D．It makes no sense to research plants communication methods.
E．They can display their memory recall through learned response.
F．The following behavioral characteristics are from the experiments.
G．Therefore, the plant biology community claimed it was completely baseless.
24、I came across quite a few language problems while spending holiday with my family last summer. The most embarrassing was when my Mom apologized to the people we were staying with because her “pants were dirty”. They looked at her in surprise, not knowing how to react. You see, Mom had fallen over and gotten mud on her jeans. But in Britain, “pants” means underpants or knickers (内裤;衬裤), not trousers as it does back home.
Katie — From America
I went to stay with a friend on the west coast last summer. Her flat was on the first floor of a high-rise building so I got the lift up. Then I wandered round for ages looking for her flat but couldn’t find it. Fed up and tired, I finally had to go out to find a phone box. She explained that her flat was on the first floor, which for me meant the ground floor.
David — From Britain
When I asked for the “restroom” in a big department store, people kept directing me to a room with seats where I could sit and “rest”. It took me years to get through to (使...明白)someone that I only wanted the toilet!
