He once said that had he not been a scientist, he
15、 would have been a musician. “Life without playing music is unthinkable for me, ” he said. “I live my daydreams in music. I get most joy in life out of music.” Einsteins mother, Pauline, was a talented pianist who brought music to life in the family home. Albert began to learn the violin at the age
16、of six. However, he worked hard until discovering the joys of Mozarts sonatas（奏鸣曲） at the age of 13. From that point on, although he had no further lessons, his violin remained his constant companion.（伴侣）When Einstein moved to Aarau in Switzerland in 1895 to complete his schooling, he seems to have
17、devoted a good deal of his time to music. Just before his 17th birthday Albert played at a music examination in the school. The inspector reported that “a student called Einstein shone in a deeply felt performance of an one of the Beethoven sonatas”. In addition to his great skill in playing the vio
18、lin, he also played the piano and, in particular, loved to improvise.（即兴创作）In later life, his fame as a physicist often led to invitations to perform at benefit concerts, which he generally accepted eagerly. At one such event, a criticnot knowing Einsteins real claim to fame as a physicist wrote, “E
19、instein plays excellently. However, his world-wide fame is undeserved. There are many violinists who are just as good”. Probably the summary of Einstein the violinist that come nearest to the mark comes from his friend Janos Plesch, who wrote, “There are many musicians with much better technique, bu
20、t none, I believe, who ever played with more sincerity or deeper feeling”.31. We learn from paragraph 1 that Einstein _A. had stopped playing music for a while B. enjoyed daydreaming in musicC. had a great love for music D. preferred to be a musician rather than a scientist32. Which statement is tru

22、ique than many musicians.33. After discovering the joys of Mozarts sonatas, Einstein _A. began to create his own music. B. started learning the piano by himself.C. moved to Switzerland to learn the violin. D. spent a lot of time playing his violin.34. What can we infer from paragraph 3?A. Einstein d
23、id excellently in the examination B. Einsteins life in Aarau affected his musical tasteC. Einsteins performance disappointed the examiner D. Einstein practiced the Beethoven sonatas for his birthday35. By mentioning the critics words, the author probably wants to show Einstein_.A. didnt live up to h
24、is reputation B. played better than professional violinistsC. was also an outstanding violinist D. wished there would be more benefit concertsBAbout thirteen years ago, China was known as the “Bicycle Kingdom”. But the two-wheeled mode(方式)of transports popularity went away, with many bikes soon repl
25、aced by the fuel-powered cars.But recently, some start-ups(新兴公司)like Ofo and Mobike, have brought bikes back to peoples life. More and more people begin to choose riding bikes instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their
26、smart phones. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. Theyre popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective way to the “last mile” problem.However, some problems have also appeared. For example, some people park the bikes at illegal place
27、s. Some people break the bikes on purpose. Some bikes are seen kept inside the buildings for personal use or found in the river. “Bike-sharing is a greener method of transportation and provides a user-friendly experience,” said Liu Xiaoming, vice-minister of transport. “But its a combination of onli
28、ne and offline business. Operators are usually strong in online service, but lack offline business experience, which causes problems. They didnt expect the bad behaviours came up so quickly and so often.”To deal with these problems, the company came up with the idea of encouraging people to return t
29、he bikes to stations by rewarding free time for their next rides. Now, Chinese service operators are also trying to address these problems. For example, Mobike sets a 100-point credit score for each user, with points taken in the case of 第 3 页 /共 4 页天津市瑞景中学2017-2018学年度第一学期9月份高二年级英语月考班级_姓名_学号_bad beh
30、avior. Once a score drops below 80, bike rental is increased to 100 yuan 30 minutes, up from 0.5-1 yuan.But experts say it is far from enough to solve the problems completely. Creative ideas are needed to help people correct their bad behaviours.36. Which do you think is the best title?_A. Bikes Ped
31、aling back into Style B. Shared Bikes Face Problems C. Free Bikes or Shared Bikes D. Shared bikes-the Mirror of National Quality 37.

32、 greener method of transportation C. shared-bikes are equipped with high-tech GPS D. the bikes can be left anywhere for the next user38.

35、trees talk? Yes, but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate (交际) with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so ter
36、rible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell-a signal (信号) causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.Communication, of course, doesnt need to be in words. We can talk to
37、 each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So why shouldnt trees have ways of
