Welcome to the world of puns. A pun is a clever and humorous use of a word or phrase with two meanings, or of word
23、s with the same sound but different meanings. For example, in the first sentence, the usage of “tuna” is a pun because it sounds like “tune a”. Of course you cant “tune a” fish, but its a clever way of using words in an unexpected way. People generally either love puns or hate them. They have a long
24、 history throughout many cultures of the world including ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia and China. In the Western world, the English playwright William Shakespeare is probably the most well-known punster. “They can show how clever you are.” Peter McGraw, the director of the Humor Research Lab at the Uni
25、versity, of Colorado in the US said. “It depends on a persons ability to understand the complexities and small differences of words because puns are a tool to put more meanings into fewer words.” Puns are used widely throughout popular culture on TV, ad campaigns and marketing. For example, walk dow
26、n any British shopping street and you will find shops with interesting names, such as a weight-loss centre called “Stop Weighting”, the butchers called “Meat You Here” and a fish and chips shop called “The Plaice to Enjoy”. You can try writing your own puns, but remember, dont write with a broken pe
27、ncil because its pointless. 29. A pun is a form that _. A. uses words in a clever and surprising way B. puts words with the same meaning together C. changes the meanings of the words or phrases D. shows the relationship between pianos and fish 30. From Peter McGraws words, we can learn that _. A. th
28、ere are just a few words in one pun B. puns are a tool to know meanings of words C. differences between two puns are hard to tell D. understanding puns requires intelligent readers 31. The underlined word “Plaice” in the passage refers to _. A. a special day to get together B. a great place to buy t
29、oys C. a type of sea fish used for food D. a TV programme to learn cooking 32. What is the writing purpose of this passage? A. To tell the importance of puns. B. To share some facts about puns. C. To give some examples of puns. D. To introduce the history of puns. C Like all mammals, we humans are o
30、nly able to see light in the visible spectrum, which include all of the colors of the rainbow. This is because the photoreceptors in our eyes are only able to notice light with a wavelength of around 400 to 700 nanometers. That means we cant see infrared or near-infrared light, which has a wavelengt
31、h a little bit longer. And that got scientists thinking. “Were always curious about if we can use any method to allow us to be able to see near-infrared or infrared light,” said Tian Xue of the University of Science and Technology of China. He reached out to his workmate Gang Han at the University o
32、f Massachusetts Medical School, who engineered a really small object he named “up-conversion nanoparticle”. The nanoparticle can be activated by infrared light. Then they tested their system in mices eyes. The nanoparticles fix themselves to photoreceptors in the animals retina. There, they take in
33、infrared light and change it to visible green light. This green light is then taken in by the retina and is analyzed by the brain as regular visible light. The improved super-sight allows the animals to not only see in infrared, but also to recognize different infrared patterns. They can use the pat
34、terns to guide their behaviors very correctly and effectively. Han says the improved nanoparticle system did not appear to affect the animals original visual abilities. “The treated mice were able to see the light patterns in the daylight conditions, clearly suggesting that nanoparticles work at the
35、 same time as usual visible sight.” The technology, in addition to its possible use in law or military, might even be a cure for color blindness. “And best of all,” Xue notes, “_, because the nanoparticle can be directly activated by the infrared light itself, and it will remain active for as long a
36、s two months before it is replaced.” A similar infrared improvement could someday allow us humans to break through our natural visual limitations and see things in a whole new light. 33. The visible spectrum includes light with a wavelength of _ nanometers. A. 100 B. 300 C. 600 D. 900 34. Which of t
37、he following shows the correct order of how the nanoparticle system works? a. The retina takes in green light. b. The brain analvzes the green light. c. The nanoparticles stick to the retina. d. The nanoparticles take in infrared light. e. The Infrared light is turned into green light. A. c-d-e-a-b
38、B. c-d-e-b-a C. d-c-e-a-b D. d-c-e-b-a 35. Which of the following can be put in _? A. it doesnt need other kinds of energy sources B. it works for several years once put in the eyes C. it doesnt affect humans abilities to see things D. human eyes work in a similar way as the mices 36. What can we le
39、arn from the passage? A. The light in the visible spectrum can activate the nanoparticle. B. The nanoparticles have been widely applied in law and military. C. The nanoparticle system may allow humans to see infrared light. D. The blind will see things clearly with the help of the technology. D It w
40、as eleven oclock at night, a large woman was walking towards home. She had a large purse with everything but money. It hung right behind her shoulder. A boy ran up and tried to snatch her purse. The large woman simply turned around, caught the boy by his shirt, and shook him until his teeth rattled.
41、 After that, the woman asked, “Boy, arent you ashamed of yourself?” “Im sorry,” whispered the boy. “What did you want to do it for? Your face is dirty. Nobody at home to tell you to wash your face?” The boy shook his head. “Then ” the woman shouted, “it will get washed this evening. You are going to
42、 remember Mrs. Jones!” She dragged the frightened boy behind her and got to her door. “Are you taking me to the police?” The boy asked. “Not with that face! Have you been home to eat yet?” “Theres nobody at my house.” “Then well eat,” said Mrs. Jones. “I believe youre hungry, so you tried to steal.”
43、 “I wanted a pair of leather shoes,” said the boy. “Well, you didnt have to snatch my purse to get things you want. Besides, theres little money in it.” There was a long pause. After he washed his face and turned around, wondering what to do next, he saw the door was open. He could run, run, run! In
44、 the corner of the room, Mrs. Jones was heating some beans. She did not watch the boy to see if he was going to run, nor did she watch her purse which she left behind on the bed. But the boy took care to sit on the far side of the room, away from the purse, where he thought she could easily see him.
45、 “Do you need somebody to get milk or something?” The boy asked. “Unless you want,” said Mrs. Jones. As they ate, she didnt ask about where he lived, or his family, or anything that would embarrass him. Instead, she said, “eat some more, boy!” When they finished eating, she got up. “Now here, take t
46、his ten dollars and buy your shoes. Next time, dont snatch my purse, nor anybody elsesshoes got in bad ways will burn your feet!” The boy really wanted to say something to Mrs. Jones. But he failed to say a word as he turned at the foot of the steps and looked up at the large woman. 37. According to
