Then, she struck out for America, where she starred in "Tortilla Flat," "Samson and Delilah" and other movies made during Hollywood's Golden Age.But Lamarr found Tinseltown shallow. She avoided parties, doodling(涂画)instead on drafting boards she had installed at home. She improved the design of traffic lights, invented a tablet that dissolved into a soft drink, and reimagined the wings of a fuel-efficient plane for Howard Hughes.Her most enduring invention: a form of frequency hopping that was the forerunner of Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS, all of which sit in your phone.You didn't know that, did you'?"When we close our eyes, we don't see a female inventor. We see Thomas Edison," says Alexandra Dean, explaining why she chose to direct "Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story," a new documentary on Lamarr's life. "This actress had done this groundbreaking invention and never been recognized."Lamarr isn't the only gifted woman who worked in the shadows of her husband or male colleagues. Rosalind Franklin helped discover the structure of DNA; Ada Lovelace authored early computer programs and algorithms(算法); and Lise Meitner discovered nuclear fission(核裂变). But it was their male colleagues who won recognition and Nobel Prizes. The numbers reflect it: Women have won 48 Nobel Prizes compared with 844 for men. In the sciences, women have won just 19."There is no track record to show how many women were not admitted in any scientific circle," said Gwenaelle Proust, an associate professor at the University of Sydney's School of Civil Engineering, adding that women in Lamarr's era(时代)were sometimes prevented from entering labs. "Who knows how many great minds were overlooked because of their sex?"That's where "Bombshell" comes in. The movie plays this week in Australia and the UK to coincide with the celebration of International Women's Day, on Thursday.24. What does the underlined world "Tinseltown" in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The movie Ecstasy.B. The label he hated.C. Hollywood.D. Her knowledge.25. What led Alexandra Dean to make a film about Lamarr?A. Lamarr's achievements in the film industryB. Female inventors' not being recognized.C. Lamarr's outstanding beauty.D. She shows pity on Lamarr.26. What can we infer from the fifth and sixth paragraph'?A. Women are not treated equally as men in science.B. Women are less capable than men in science.C. Women in Lamarr's era never work in labs.D. women won 67 Nobel Prizes in all.27. Which of the following best describes Lamarr?A. The structure discoverer of DNAB. The designer of computer programsC. The nuclear fission discovererD. The pioneer of smart phoneCOver the past five decades mosquito populations in parts of the Baltimore have increased rapidly by a factor of 10-a situation with worrying inferences for the spread of diseases such as West Nile virus, dengue and chikungunya(西尼罗病毒、登革热和基孔肯雅病). A new study published last October in the Journal of Medical Entomology found that in Baltimore, low-income neighborhoods bear the biggest burden: they have not only more mosquitoes but also larger ones, which often survive longer.The problem most likely is rooted in the fact that Baltimore has nearly 17, 000 abandoned buildings, which are concentrated in economically disadvantaged areas and serve as convenient mosquito-breeding zones. To effectively beat mosquitoes and the diseases they carry, the study suggests, cities will need to account for urban infrastructure(基础设施).Researchers at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies in Millbrook, N.Y., and the University of Maryland trapped adult Aedes albopictus (better known as Asian tiger mosquitoes) in five Baltimore residential neighborhoods over three years. This species, introduced to the U.S. in 1987, is now the most common in many American cities. When the researchers measured the mosquitoes' wing lengths, a proxy(代表)for body size, they found that the insects grew larger in lower-income blocks.Bigger mosquitoes are not just a bigger annoyance: the larger they are, the longer they tend to live-and the more times each one can bite. Because mosquitoes have to bite at least once to become infected with disease-causing microorganisms(微生物)and again to pass them on to people, biggermosquitoes could pose higher disease risks. Larger mosquitoes also lay more eggs, setting the stage for higher numbers later on. Senior study author Shannon LaDeau, a Cary Institute disease ecologist, and her colleagues found in a 2013 study that low-income blocks in Baltimore were 72 percent more likely to have Asian tiger mosquitoes than high-income blocks were and showed higher mosquito densities(密度).28. What makes mosquitoes in Baltimore worrying?A. They indicate Baltimore is poorer than other places.B. They can cause bigger mosquitoes in Baltimore.C. They contribute to the spread of diseases.D. They usually survive shorter than expected.29. Where does the mosquito problem in Baltimore lie?A. In its larger population.B. In its poorer economy.C. In its geographical location.D. In its dense buildings.30. What can be learned about Aedes albopictus?A. They are also called Asian tiger mosquitoes.B. They are most found in African countries.C. They arrived in the U.S. in the year 1887.D. They grow larger in more wealthy areas.31. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. Diseases spread by Asian tiger mosquitoes.B. Measures to deal with Asian tiger mosquitoes.C. Features of Asian tiger mosquitoes.D. Problems arising from bigger mosquitoes.DDisappointment is a natural human emotion that occurs alter a failure. For our young children, this failure can look like not getting the toy they wanted, not being invited to a classmate's birthday party or losing their favourite stuffed animal.It is essential for children's mental health, well-being and overall development that they experience how to deal with disappointment well. But this can he difficult for parents to handle, particularly around holidays that have grown to involve gilt-giving and expectations.North American culture often mistakenly links love and happiness with material goods such as toys; the Santa story promises magical wish fulfillment. This can cause conflict for parents when children do not get the "right" gift.On holidays, there's social and personal pressure to provide happiness and joy to children through material objects, which can be confused with providing the necessities. For parents who do not have the resources to provide the perfect or desired gift, this can cause additional stress, shame, guilt and fear around disappointment. Parents may feel as though they have let down their child and that they have impacted the child's experience or memory of their "special day."This is especially true if the child has difficulty with or is learning to regulate emotions and expresses disappointment through tantrums(发怒)or sulking(生闷气).These behaviours can affect parents profoundly, often leading them to feel badly about themselves or that the child does not love them.Changing our focus from giving rather than receiving can help our children develop and appreciate the strength in gratitude. Research has linked gratitude to significant health and wellness benefits such as improving self-esteem, improving sleep and developing empathy.The other thing to know is that although disappointment feels awful, it is a part of life and is actually a positive and healthy emotion that's central to children's emotional, cognitive and social development throughout their lives.32. Why is it difficult for parent to handle disappointment on Christmas?A. It is connected with children's overall development.B. It is the custom to give gifts or show expectations.C. Children are easy to have tantrums or sulking.D. Children often expect too much of their parents.33. What is the author's attitude toward linking love and happiness with material goods?A. PositiveB. ConcernedC. InterestedD. Supportive34. What does the author feel about changing our focus to giving rather than receiving?A. It can avoid disappointment in life.B. It can help children's academic development.C. It is a necessary part of one's life.D. It helps children realize the benefits of being grateful.35. What is the best title for the text ?A. What Christmas Can Teach Kids about Disappointment.B. How We Can Meet Our Children's Expectations Best.C. What Harm Disappointment Does to Most Children.D. What Are the Rights to Give to Your Children on Christmas.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
