B．A research report.C．A fashion magazine. D．An advice brochure.BDoctors are known to be terrible pilots. They don’t listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didn’t realize then，but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management(机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear（起落架）down. He was a better pilot－and my boss－so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside m y uneasiness and said, “We need to put the landing gear down now!” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I’ve used it in the operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I'm in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they’re not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “landing gear up”.4．What does the author say about doctors in general?A．They like flying by themselves. B．They are unwilling to take advice.C．They pretend to be good pilots. D．They are quick learners of CRM. 5．The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when .A．he saved the plane by speaking up B．he was in charge of a flying taskC．his boss landed the plane too late D．his boss operated on a patient6．In the last paragraph “landin g gear up” probably means .A．following flying requirements B．overreacting to different opinionsC．listening to what fellow doctors say D．making a mistake that may cost lives 7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．CRM:A New Way to Make Flying Safe B．Flying Makes Me a Better DoctorC．The Making of a Good Pilot D．A Pilot-Turned DoctorThe rebuilt Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) could feature futuristic glass design, solar power, and an urban farm that supports vulnerable and homeless Pari sians, if one architecture firm’s vision is realized. In April, French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe announced an international competition for architects to redesign the cathedral’s 19th century spire (尖顶), which fell down after a fire destroyed the 850-year-old Gothic landmark. Paris firm Vincent Callebaut Architectures (VCA) responded to the call with an eco-friendly design that supports the local population and produces more energy than it uses.The Vincent Ca llebaut (VC) project is titled “Palingenesis”, a Greek concept of rebirth or recreation. The firm proposes a new roof made of glass, oak and carbon fiber, which connects “in one single curved stroke of pencil”to the sloping spire. The rooster which topped the original spire, regained from the remains after the fire, will resume its watch from the new glass design, while the cathedral’s choir will be “bathed in natural light”.Beneath the spire, the roof will host a fruit and vegetable farm run by charities and volunteers, in order to produce free food for vulnerable local people. “Up to 21 tons of fruits and vegetables could be harvested and directly re distributed for free each year,” the firm said in a press release. “To that end, a farmers’ market would be held every week on the forecourt of Notr e Dame.” The roof and spire will also produce electricity, heat and ventilation (air circulation) for the cathedral: an “organic active layer”within the glass will prov ide solar power, while the roof’s diamond-shaped “scales”will open to offer natural ventilation—a design inspired by termite mounds (白蚁丘). The spire will act as space in which hot air accumulates in winter.“How can we write the contemporary history of our country, but also that of science, art and spirituality together?” the f irm said in the press release. “We seek to present a supreme project, a symbol of a lively and ecological future.” If the Vincent Callebaut design is selected, the firm said, the reborn Notre Dame will define “the new face of the Church in the 21st century”, presenting “a fairer symbiotic relationship between h umans and nature”.8．What can be leaned about the design of Notre Dame by VCA?A．It is focused on the theme of “green”.B．It can recover Notre Dame’s original appearance.C．It gets the most local support than the others.D．It is from the most famous architect around the world.9．What does the underlined part “resume its watch” in paragraph 2 mean?A．Be made of high-tech materials.B．Show people the right time again.C．Be removed and placed somewhere else.D．Overlook Notre Dame again at its original place.10．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A．The inspiration of the design.B．The function of the roof and the spire.C．A detailed introduction of the VCA project.D．The symbol of Notre Dame for the local people.11．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．The future of the new Notre Dame looks blackB．The VCA is confident about winning the competition.C．The proposal for the Notre Dame has been approved.D．The new design of Notre Dame will be a mix of history, science and art.MIT researchers have developed a way to incorporate( 融入) electronic sensors into fabrics, allowing them to create shirts or other garments that could be used to monitor vital signs such as temperature and heart rate. The sensor-embedded garments can be customized to fit close to the body of the person wearing them.“We can have electronic parts or lab-made electronics embedded within the textiles that we wear every day, creating comfortable garments,” says Dagdeviren, a professor at MIT. His group set out to create garments more similar to the clothes we normally wear, using a fabric that has removable electronic sensors in it.“In our case, the textile is not electrically functional. It’s just a passive element of our garment so that you can wear the devices comfo rtably during your daily activities,” Dagdeviren says. “Our main goal was to measure the physical activity of the body all from the same body part, without requiring any fixture or any tape.”The electronic sensors consist of long flexible strips(细条). These channels have small openings that allow the sensors to be exposed to the skin. For this study, the researchers designed a shirt with 30 temperature sensors and an accelerometer that can measure the wearer’s movement, heart rate, and breathing rate. The garment can then transmit(传输) this data wirelessly to a smartphone.This kind of sensing could be useful for personalized telemedicine, allowing doctors to remotely monitor patients. “You don’t need to go to the doctor or do a video call,” Dagdeviren says. “Through this kind of da ta collection, I think doctors can make better assessments and help their patients in a better way.”Last summer, several of the researchers spent time at a factory in Shenzhen, China, to experiment with mass-producing the material used for the garments. “From the outside it looks like a normal T-shirt, but from the inside, you can see the electronic parts which are touching your skin,” Dagdeviren says.12．Why do MIT researchers make sensor-embedded garments?A．To create garments with medical functions.B．To satisfy customers’ personal need for fashion.C．To complete their academic tasks.D．To transform patents for benefits.13．What is the main function of the electronic sensors?A．Monitoring wearers’ behavior.B．Making the skin fully exposed.C．Adjusting wearers’ body temperature.D．Collecting and transmitting health information.14．What do the researchers expect of the garments in the future?A．They will bring convenience to patients.B. They could be in mass-production soon.C．They might lead the new fashion.D．They may take the place of doctors.15．What can we infer about wearing a sensor-embedded garment according to Dagdeviren?A．It’s fashionable. B. It’s skin-friendly. C．It’s eco-friendly. D．It’s awkward. 第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2. 5 分, 满分12. 5 分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
