Reading Comprehension Section A Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several 的questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) As the sun set he remembered, to give himself more confidence, the time in the tavern at Casablanca when he had played the hand game with the great negro from Cienfuegos who was the strongest man on the docks. They had gone one day and one night with their elbows on a chalk line on the table and their forearms straight up and their hands gripped tight. Each one was trying to force the other’s hand down onto the table. There was much betting and people went in and out of the room under the kerosene lights and he had looked at the arm and hand of the negro and at the negro’s face. They changed the referees every four hours after the first eight so that the referees could sleep. Blood came out from under the finger-nails of both his and the negro’s hands and they looked each other in the eye and at their hands and forearms and the bettors went in and out of the room and sat on high chairs against the wall and watched. The walls were painted bright blue and were of wood and the lamps threw their shadows against them. The negro’s shadow was huge and it moved on the wall as the breeze moved the lamps. The odds would change back and forth all night and they fed the negro rum and lighted cigarettes for him. Then the negro, after the rum, would try for a tremendous effort and once he had the old man, who was not an old man then but was Santiago El Campeon, nearly three inches off balance. But the old man had raised his hand up to dead even again. He was sure then that he had the negro, who was a fine man and a great athere, beaten. And at daylight when the bettors were asking that it be called a draw and the referee was shaking his head, he had unleashed his effort and forced the hand of the negro down and down until it rested on the wood. The match had started on a Sunday morning and ended on a Monday morning. Many of the bettors had asked for a draw because they had to go to work on the docks loading sacks of sugar or at the Havana Coal Company. Otherwise everyone would have wanted it to go to a finish. But he had finished it anyway and before anyone had to go to work. For a long time after that everyone had called him The Champion and there had been a return match in the spring. But not much money was bet and he had won it quite easily since he had broken the confidence of the negro from Cienfuegos in the first match. After that he had a few matches and then no more. He decided that he could beat anyone if he wanted to badly enough and he decided that it was bad for his right hand for fishing. He had tried a few practice matches with his left hand. But his left hand had always been a traitor and would not do what he called on it to do and he did not trust it. Quoted from The Old Man and the Sea written by Ernest Hemingway 36. Since the old man is the main character, in the hand game, why does Hemingway put more efforts in describing his opponent the negro? A. Because Hemingway himself is an anti-racist who wants to support the colored race. B. By doing so, he indirectly shows how strong and determined the old man is to readers. C. he shifts readers’ attention to a new character to neutralize the nervous atmosphere. D. There is no need to describe the old man because he is well-known to all readers. 37. What does the underlined word “unleashed” in paragraph 2 mean? A. spare B. restrict C. reduce D. loose 38. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Many bettors were afraid of losing their money so they wanted to call the game a draw. B. The old man had owed his victory over the negro more to his will than to his strength. C. The referee had been convinced by the bettors that the game be considered a draw. D. Regular hand games should be a good practice to enhance the old man’s fishing skills. 39. What can be inferred from the whole passage? A. The old man could have ended the game earlier but he had withheld his power. B. Many workers working on the decks had showed no respect towards the old man. C. The old man had to self-feed himself a lot so as to stay competitive in the game.D. The negro was not as strong and athletic as the old man had expected him to be. 【答案】36. B 37. D 38. B 39. A 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。文章选自海明威的《老人与海》,文章描述了以前老人和一个黑人比赛掰手 腕的故事。 【36 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“when he had played the hand game with the great negro from Cienfuegos who was the strongest man on the docks”可知,和老人进行比赛的黑人是码 头上最强壮的。在下文中,作者介绍了老人和黑人比赛的过程和结果:老人通过努力,打败 了黑人。由此可以反衬出老人的强壮和坚定。故选 B。 【37 题详解】 词义猜测题。根据下文中的“forced the hand of the negro down and down until it rested on the wood”可知,老人最终将黑人的手压在了木头上,从而取得胜利。由此推知,unleashed his effort 应该指“老人使出了全部的力气”。结合选项,D(释放)符合语境。loose one’s effort 意为“释放力气”。故选 D。 【38 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Then the negro, after the rum, would try for a tremendous effort and once he had the old man, who was not an old man then but was Santiago El Campeon, nearly three inches off balance. But the old man had raised his hand up to dead even again. He was sure then that he had the negro, who was a fine man and a great athere, beaten.”可知,在从周日早上到周一早上长达一天一夜的过程中,黑人一度 快要使老人失去平衡,但是每次老人都重新竖起自己的手。由此可知,在这个过程中,老人 的意志力起了很大的作用。结合最后一段中的“he had won it quite easily since he had broken the confidence of the negro from Cienfuegos in the first match.”可知,老人在第 一场比赛中就打破了那个黑人的自信心。所以黑人之所以失败,并不是因为力气不足,而是 因为丧失信心,缺乏斗志。结合选项,B(老人把他对黑人的胜利更多地归功于他的意志,而 不是他的力量)符合该意。故选 B。 【39 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“And at daylight when the bettors were asking that it be called a draw and the referee was shaking his head, he had unleashed his effort and forced the hand of the negro down and down until it rested on the wood. Many of the bettors had asked for a draw because they had to go to work on the docks…Otherwise everyone would have wanted it to go to a finish. But he had finished it anyway and before anyone had to go to work.”可知,周围打赌的人们因为要去上班,要求以平局结束这 场比赛。在这个时候,老人本来是可以结束比赛的。但是,在裁判不同意的情况下,老人最 终通过自己的努力,赢得了这场比赛。结合选项,A(老人本可以更早结束比赛,但他没有这 样做。)符合语境。故选 A。 (B) Fifty four years ago, young Quentin entered this world. “Action!” he must have yelled then to his mum. When he was two, his whole family moved to Los Angeles, and before Quentin Tarantino turned a teenager, he had already seen more movies than most people . In his twenties he started working at the Manhattan Beach Video Archives, where he made some important friendships and tried his hand at making a first movie. It would take another few years until he would sell the scripts for True Romance and Natural Born Killers, and shortly after go on and conquer the film festival circuit in a storm with Reservoir Dogs. And so it began With Pulp Fcition, QT finally turned Hollywood upside-down for good, and established himself as, what they would then call, an “enfant terrible” of the new film-making community. to this day, Pulp Fiction counts as a completely original masterpiece, that sometimes even to his most loyal fans he has not matched again. After Jackie Brown, he took a pause for a while, not turning out a major motion picture until Kill Bill. Kill Bill turned into an epic, and manifested director Tarantino as the truly great filmmaker, opening the eyes of millions among the younger generations to lost classics, foreign cult cinema and the wild world of exploitation film. Then in 2007, he made Grindhouse together with his long time friend Robert Rodriguez. The movie was well-received among critics, but was a financial disaster. Tarantino has talked about a war movie for many years, but not until 2008 did any of those rumors come together, when he announced that he had in fact finally finished a script for Inglourious Basterds, a massive war epic. The movie went into production that same year, starring Brad Pitt in the leading role. It was a huge international success and gathered quite a few awards. In 2011, Tarantino announced the completion of his latest script, a movie about slavery in the old US south of the 1860s, titled Django Unchained. The movie has attracted enormous attention, especially because it stars Jamie Foxx, Leonardo DiCaprio, Samuel L. Jackson and Christoph Waltz, who won an Oscar for his role in Inglourious Basterds, and whose acting talents have been truly recognized. And 2015 marked the release of his 8th film, appropriately titled The Hateful Eight, a post Civil War era Western mystery and thriller. At the age of 54, Quentin Tarantino has recently gone on record saying he will retire some time soon, but all of the movie fans definitely hope the speak of film-making stays strong in his heart of a long time still. Because in a world densely crowded with average filmmakers QT seems to be one of the few who never play it safe. A Salute to Quentin Tarantino 40.

B 43. D 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了著名电影制作人 QuentinTarantino 电影创作的经历和他的作品。 【40 题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“turned Hollywood upside-down”可知,QT 颠覆了好莱坞,由 此推之,他的所作所为应该和好莱坞的一些传统观念或做法是背道而驰的。根据“Pulp Fiction counts as a completely original masterpiece, that sometimes even to his most loyal fans he has not matched again.”可知,Pulp Fiction 是昆丁创作的完全原创作品,在他的一 些粉丝看来,其无可匹敌。结合这两点来看,结合选项,昆丁是一个在艺术创作上非常“灵 活”,“不拘泥于传统”的人。故选 C。 【41 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“not until 2008 did any of those rumors come together, when he announced that he had in fact finally finished a script for Inglourious Basterds, a massive war epic. The movie went into production that same year, starring Brad Pitt in the leading role”可知,直到 2008 年,他才宣布自己终于完成了《无耻混蛋》的剧本, 这是一部宏大的战争史诗。同年,这部电影开始制作,由布拉德·皮特主演。结合选项,D (2008 年见证了《无耻混蛋》的诞生)符合题意。故选 D。 【42 题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“In 2011, Tarantino announced the completion of his latest script, a movie about slavery in the old US south of the 1860s, titled Django Unchained. The movie has attracted enormous attention, especially because it stars Jamie Foxx, Leonardo DiCaprio, Samuel L. Jackson and Christoph Waltz, who won an Oscar for his role in Inglourious Basterd”可知,克里斯托弗·瓦尔兹主演了塔伦蒂诺的《被 解放的姜戈》,而且克里斯托弗·瓦尔兹还凭借在塔伦蒂诺的《无耻混蛋》中的角色获得了奥 斯卡奖。由此推知,克里斯托弗·瓦尔兹至少出演过塔伦蒂诺的两部作品。结合选项,B(克 里斯托弗·瓦尔兹至少和塔伦蒂诺合作过两次。)切合题意。故选 B。 【43 题详解】 推理判断题。文章介绍了昆丁在电影制作方面的成就,凸显了其特色。由作者对这些伟大作 品的介绍推知,作者对昆丁的态度是“赞成的”。故选 D。 (C)The rough guide to marketing success used to be that you got what you paid for. No longer. While traditional, “paid” media, such as television commercials and print advertisements, still play a major role, companies today can exploit many alternative forms of media. Consumers passionate about a product may create “earned” media by willingly promoting it to friends, and a company may leverage “owned” media by sending e-mail alerts about products and sales to customers registered with its Web site. The way consumers approach the process of making purchase decisions means that marketing’s impact stems from a broad range of factors beyond conventional paid media. Paid and owned media are controlled by marketers promoting their own products. For earned media, such marketers act as the initiator for users’ responses. But in some cases, one marketer’s owned media become another marketer’s paid media -- for instance, when an e-commerce retailer sells ad space on its Web site. We define such sold media as owned media whose traffic is so strong that other organizations place their content or e-commerce engines within that environment. This trend, which we believe is still in its infancy, effectively began with retailers and reavel providers such as airlines and hotels and will no doubt go further. Johnson & Johnson, for example, has created Baby Center, a stand-along media property that promotes complementary and even competitive products. Besides generating income, the presence of other marketers makes the site seem objective, gives companies opportunities to learn valuable information about the appeal of other companies marketing, and may help expand user traffic for all companies concerned. The same dramatic technological changes that have provided marketers with more and more diverse communications choices have also increased the risk that passionate consumers will voice their opinions in quicker, more visible, and much more damaging ways. Such hijacked media are the opposite of earned media: an asset or campaign becomes hostage to consumers, other stakeholders, or activists who make negative allegations about a brand or product. Members of social networks, for instance, are learning that they can hijack media to apply pressure on the business that originally created them.If that happens passionate consumers would try to persuade others to boycott products, putting the reputation of the target company at risk. In such a case, the company’s response may not be sufficiently quick or thoughtful, and the learning curve has been steep. Toyota Motor, for example, alleviated some of the damage from its recall crisis earlier this year with a relatively quick and well-orchestrated social-media response campaign, which included efforts to engage with consumers directly on sites such as Twitter and Facebook. 44. Consumers may create “earned” media when they are ________. A. obsessed with online shopping at certain Web sites B. inspired by product-promoting e-mail sent to them C. eager to help their friends promote quality products D. enthusiastic about recommending their favorite products. 45. The author indicates in Para. 3 that earned media ________. A. invite constant conflicts with passionate consumers B. can be used to produce negative effects in marketing C. may be responsible for fiercer competition D. deserve all the negative comments about them 46. Toyota Motor’s experience is cited as an example of ________. A. responding effectively to hijacked media B. persuading customers into boycotting product C. cooperating with supportive consumers D. taking advantage of hijacked media 【答案】44. D 45. B 46. A 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了有关 earned media(口碑媒体)、Hijacked Media(劫持媒体)、 paid media(自有媒体)的概念和特点。 【44 题详解】 细 节 理 解 题 。 根 据 第 一 段 中 的 “Consumers passionate about a product may create “earned” media by willingly promoting it to friends”可知,对产品充满热情的消费 者可能会通过主动向朋友推销产品来创造“口碑”媒体。故选 D。【45 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段可知,剧烈的技术变革为营销人员提供了越来越多的交流选择,但 同时也增加了这样一种风险,即热情的消费者会以更快、更明显、更具破坏性的方式表达自 己的观点。这种被劫持的媒体是口碑媒体的对立面:一项资产或活动成为消费者、其他利益 相关者或对某个品牌或产品提出负面指控的活动人士的人质。例如,社交网络的成员正在明 白他们可以劫持媒体,对最初创建它们的企业施加压力。由此可知,当口碑媒体被某些人所 劫持,转化为劫持媒体的时候,就会影响企业,从而对企业营销产生不利的影响。结合选项, B(口碑媒体可以被用来对营销产生负面影响)符合题意。故选 B。 【46 题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段对于“劫持媒体”的介绍和最后一段中的“If that happens passionate consumers would try to persuade others to boycott products, putting the reputation of the target company at risk. In such a case, the company’s response may not be sufficiently quick or thoughtful, and the learning curve has been steep.”可 知,如果发生(劫持媒体)这种情况,热情的消费者会试图说服他人抵制产品,从而使目标 公司的声誉面临风险。在这种情况下,公司的反应可能不够迅速或周到,那么公司就会变得 很困难。而下文以 Toyota Motor(该公司在今年早些时候的召回危机中采取了相对迅速和精 心策划的社交媒体应对行动,包括在 Twitter 和 Facebook 等网站上直接与消费者互动,从而 减轻了部分损失)为例,则展示了当发生“劫持媒体”这种情况时,如果应对迅速得当,那 么就可以减轻损失。因此,Toyota Motor 是一个有效应对被绑架媒体的例子。故选 A。 Section B (D) Directions: In the article, 4 sentences have been removed. Choose the most suitable ones from the list A- AC to fit into each of the numbered gaps. There are TWO which do not fit in any of the gaps. Usually when you hear the word trilogy in the film world you think about summer blockbusters with massive explosions, aliens or machines destroying earth and morons with enhanced muscles quickly driving expensive cars, but somehow Richard Linklater’s wonderfully touching Before series (Before sunrise, Before Sunset & Before Midnight) has found a way to slip though the cracks. Just like what he did with the first two films, Linklater brings us back into lesse & Celine’s evolving love story an astonishing nine years after the last chapter. ____47____. And Linklater himself also quickly answers the question to those in the audience wondering if there is still a story left to tell. As is the case with the first two films, Before Midnight feels incredibly real. ____48____. The three have found a way to write dialogue that is related to every human on the planet. the script is hilarious, but dramatically turns on a dime all while continuing to break the normal rules of Hollywood by being a “talkie” with extremely long scenes and minimal camera angles. Most filmmakers couldn’t even dream of accomplishing what Linklater and the two actors have perfected for the third straight time. Hawke and Delpy are brilliant and a revelation to watch. They embody Jesse & Celine with a realistic persona not found in many other films today. Whether it’s because the two actors helped write their story, or if they’ve just lived inside these characters for so long is hard to say. ____49____. By showcasing the flaws we all have, Before Midnight isn’t always easy to watch, but its pure honesty makes it one of the best movies to date. ____50____ . But loyal fans of Jesse & Celine are sure to be pleased by this latest chapter and cannot wait to see what happens in the next 9 years. A. Whatever the case, Jesse & Celine may be the most realistic believable characters in the history of American cinema. B. The script, which Linklater co-wrote with the two lead stars Ethan Hawke & Julie Delpy, is nothing short of perfect. C. The idea the three films intend to express is that what truly connects two souls is not love or attachment, but understanding. D. Those looking for a sappy Hollywood love story may not appreciate this honest reflection of life that the film provides. AB. It is no exaggeration to say that Linkerlater’s Before series have shaped many people’s concept of love or how they perceive love. AC. For those of us ‘Before’ fans sitting on the edge of our seats the past near decade wondering whether they make it happen or not, now we finally have our answer.【答案】47. AC 48. B 49. A 50. D 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了 Before Midnight 这部电影的相关信息。 【47 题详解】 前一句提到:就像他在前两部电影中所做的一样,林克莱特将我们带回到 lesse & Celine 的 爱情故事中。后一句提到:林克莱特自己也很快地回答了那些想知道是否还有故事可讲的观 众的问题。根据下一句中的“also answers the question”,结合选项,AC 选项“在过去十年 里,我们,我们一直想知道他们是否能做到这一点,现在我们终于有了答案”与之联系最密 切。故选 AC。 【48 题详解】 前一句提到:就像前两部电影一样,Before Midnight 给人的感觉非常真实。后一句提到:他 们三人找到了一种方式,写出了与地球上每一个人都相关的对话。这个剧本很搞笑,但是情 节的转折很戏剧化,同时又打破了好莱坞的常规,用超长的镜头和最少的镜头角度来“说 话”。该空承上启下,B 选项“林克莱特与两位主演伊桑·霍克和朱莉·德尔比共同撰写的剧 本堪称完美。”与上下文衔接最密切。故选 B。 【49 题详解】 前一句提到:究竟是因为这两位演员参与了故事的编写,还是因为他们只是在这些角色中生 活了太久,这很难说。该空承接上文,A 选项“无论如何,Jesse 和 Celine 可能是美国电影 史上最真实可信的角色。”与上文承接最密切。故选 A。 【50 题详解】 前一句提到:通过展示我们所有人的缺点,Before Midnight 观看起来并不总是那么容易,但 它纯粹的诚实使它成为迄今为止最好的电影之一。下一句提到:但是杰西和赛琳的忠实粉丝 们一定会为这一最新篇章感到高兴,迫不及待地想看看接下来的 9 年里会发生什么。该空承 上启下,D 选项“那些寻找好莱坞爱情故事的人可能不会欣赏这部电影对生活的真实反映。” 与前后联系最密切。故选 D。 Ⅵ. Summary 51.Directions: Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your won words as far as possible. Working overtime has been common for employees in China’s internet sector for many years, but debate about the practice heated up recently after a blacklist of technology companies that push their staff to follow a “996” schedule went viral online. The blacklist is said to have been compiled by current and former employees of technology companies. As of Monday, 84 Chinese companies were on the blacklist, which claims employees are forced to follow a “996” schedule, under which work begins at 9 am and finishes at 9 pm, six days a week. “ If it’s ‘work more, pay more’ model, I’d be a lot more willing to follow the ‘996’ schedule. But the truth is, not every company is run that way. That’s why many people complain,” a software developer working in a gaming company based in Hangzhou, East China’s Zhejiang Province, told the Global Times on Wednesday. The online complaints and discussions also come amid young people’s changing attitudes toward life and work, and rising rights protection awareness. With improved living standards, more young people have adopted a “work hard, play hard” lifestyle, compared with the older generations’ “work to live” mind-set. While working hard, they are calling for more holidays, and believe holidays are their rights. “Bus we don’t know who we should resort to when it comes to all these holidays and payment issues, so we resort to the internet,” the developer said. “Sometimes when projects come along. I work seven days a week, I sometimes even sleep at the office,” the developer said. “I’m a game lover and I like my job, but I think I’m underpaid and my work is not appreciated.” Industry analysts noted that the hours required by the “996” model exceed the limits established in China’s Labor Contract Law. The culture of overtime is connected to the characteristics embedded in Chinese people - who are hard -working, diligent, and desirous of success. They are even willing to sacrifice some of their personal lives to achieve career success. This might be quite different and hard to be understood in European countries. Beyond China, most people in other East Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea also suffer from working overtime due to similar cultural elements. Working overtime has become a global phenomenon, and labor unions around the world should play an active role in seeking more ways to better protect workers’ rights amid an industrial upgrading. 【答案】An online black list has brought the issue of working overtime to the spotlight. The employees complain due to their unsatisfactory payment. Besides, their changed attitudes towards life and work have also created a need for more holidays. This working - overtime culture is related to Chinese people’s personalities. But labor unions must take action to protect workers’ right. 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇概要写作。在中国的互联网行业,加班现象多年来一直很普遍,但最近一份要求员 工遵守“996”时间表的科技公司黑名单在网上疯传后,有关加班的争论升温。文章对这种争 论进行了阐述。 【详解】第一段提出现象:加班问题引发人们的争论。第二段提到:并非所有公司都遵循“多 工作,多报酬”的原则,这导致了很多人抱怨加班,对加班不满。第三段提到:网络上的抱 怨和讨论也反映了年轻人对生活和工作态度的转变,以及维权意识的增强。他们要求更多的 假期。最后几段提出:行业分析人士指出,加班文化与中国人固有的特点有关。世界各地的 工会应该发挥积极作用,寻找更多更好地保护工人权利的途径。 【点睛】所给范文条理清楚,清楚地概括了文章大意。适当运用了一些较好的词汇,例如: bring to the spotlight,created a need for, take action to protect Ⅶ Translation 52. 阅读诗歌译本就如同穿着雨衣淋雨,你永远无法感知到水滴的碰撞。(like) 53. 为了抹去过往的痛苦回忆,她决定将所有他的信件付之一炬。(wipe) 54. 他文科很棒,所以很有机会被他心仪的大学录取。(stand) 55. 他的言论使得一件之前无人问津的小事变成了所有人现在都不得不关注的国际事件。(to which) 【答案】52.

The composition must be based on the information given below. 人工智能的发展在带来诸多可预见的益处的同时,也会产生相应的潜在威胁。很多人担忧未 来如果计算机能够像人一样思考,那么人类是否还能控制计算机,或甚至人类是否会被替代? 但已故物理学家霍金却说:“真正的危险不在于计算机将开始像人类一样思考,而是人类将 开始像计算机一样思考”。 请结合霍金的评论写一篇短文,短文内容需包括; 1. 你对霍金评论的个人看法或理解2. 人工智能对人类可能产生的危害及相应措施。 ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________ 【答案】Hawking is a very optimistic person. Despite severe disability, he is faced with life bravely, making great achievements in physics and astronomy, which contribute greatly to the development of society. In addition, he is a person with a unique and deep understanding of things. He often looks at things from different perspectives. As far as Hawking is concerned, with the development of artificial intelligence, not only does it bring many predictable benefits, but also it produces corresponding potential threats. In contrast what most people have thought, Hawing believes that the real danger is not that computers will start to think like humans, but that humans will start to think like computers. In such cases, people will be likely to act with no values, no compassion, no regard for the consequences, thus destroying human beings in the end. To avoid this terrible outcome, we have to analyze ourselves, have the courage to admit the true emotions and thoughts in our heart. We must hold firmly to the right values and morals. Remember: make artificial intelligence work for us, or we will destroy ourselves. 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇半开放性作文。要求考生根据所给材料内容,阐述自己对霍金的看法,并且人工智 能对人类可能产生的危害及相应措施。 【详解】该文可分为三部分内容。第一部分介绍对霍金的看法。可以从霍金的贡献方面,霍 金的意志力方面,或者霍金看待问题的独特视角等方面进行阐述。第二部分要结合霍金的话, 谈一谈人工智能对人类可能产生的危害,诸如:人工智能使得人们会失去价值观,失去怜悯 心,最终毁灭自己等方面。第三部分要介绍我们应该采取的措施。整篇文章应以现在时态和将来时态为主。 【点睛】所给范文条理清楚,内容明确,非常切题。适当运用了一些较好的词汇,例如:非 谓语动词(making great achievements in physics and astronomy),定语从句(which contributes greatly to the development of society),倒装(not only does it bring many predictable benefits, but also it produces corresponding potential threats)等,为文 章增色不少。 查看更多
