A
Matthew Kneale is the award-winning author of fiction and non-fiction, including
English passengers, which won the Whitbread Book Award. He shares the books that
have changed his life.
The adventures of Tintin by Hergé
As a child I loved the Tintin books — for their adventures, their characters
and their stylish illustrations. Though Hergé visited almost none of the faraway
places he drew, he captured (捕捉) them perfectly. His images, whether of Peru,
Arabia, India or China, stayed with me and later, when I became a keen traveler,
Tintin’s destinations were the places that I most wanted to reach. I never saw them
all, needless to say, but I got to quite a few.
Stig of the Dump by Clive King
This was another book I loved as a child — the story of a boy who is bored staying
with his grandparents, when he runs into Stig, a friendly Stone Age man. When my
father read it to my sister and me, I was already fascinated by history and I loved
the way the book captured the mystery of our distant, unrecorded past. Its charm
stayed with me and much later I spent many a weekend driving around Britain, getting
lost on small country roads, looking for prehistoric tombs and stone circles. There’
s something breathtaking about these places, which are often in extraordinary
locations.
I Claudius / Claudius the God by Robert Graves
When I first saw Rome, aged eight, I was amazed by the city’s layers of history
and this same magic led me to come and live here, 20 years ago. I first read IClaudius
as a teenager and was attracted by the story of friendly, stammering, ridiculed
Claudius, who grows up in the vipers’ nest of Rome’s imperial family and who, against
all the odds, as his relatives destroy one another, survives and rises. Graves, a
fine scholar, has a talent for making the past spring to life, in all its nastiness
and wonder. In my own writing, fiction and non-fiction, I’ve tried to follow his
example — to make history shocked, as it should do.
1. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Rich travel experience shaped Herge.
B. Stig of the Dump is adapted from a true story.
C. Matthew showed great interest in history as a child.
D. The close family relationship helped Claudius’ growth.
2. Why does Matthew share the three books?
A. Because they manage to bring the past back to life.
B. Because they are great representatives of non-fictions.
C. Because they are known for their stylish illustrations.
D. Because they make a great difference to Matthew’s life.
3. Where can we probably find the passage?
A. In a magazine.
B. In a history book.
C. In a travel brochure.
D. In an advertisement.
【答案】1. C
2. D
3. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。获奖作家马修·尼尔享了那些改变了他生活的书。
【1 题详解】
细节理解题。根据 Stig of the Dump by Clive King 部分中的“When my father read it
to my sister and me, I was already fascinated by history and I loved the way the
book captured the mystery of our distant, unrecorded past. Its charm stayed with
me and much later I spent many a weekend driving around Britain, getting lost on
small country roads, looking for prehistoric tombs and stone circles.(当我父亲把
它读给我和妹妹听时，我已经被历史迷住了，我喜欢这本书捕捉到我们遥远的、没有记录的
过去的神秘。它的魅力一直伴随着我，很久以后，我花了很多周末开车环游英国，迷失在乡
间小路上，寻找史前古墓和石圈)”可知，马修小时候就对历史表现出极大的兴趣。故选 C。
【2 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“He shares the books that have changed his life.(他分
享了那些改变了他生活的书)”可知，马修分享了这三本书，因为它们对马修的生活有很大
的影响。故选 D。
【3 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Matthew Kneale is the award-winning author of fiction and
non-fiction, including Englishpassengers, which won the Whitbread Book Award. He
shares the books that have changed his life.(马修·尼尔是小说和非小说类作品的获
奖作家，作品包括《英国乘客》，曾获惠特布莱德图书奖。他分享了那些改变了他生活的书)”
以及下文介绍的三本书并结合选项可推知，我们也许能在杂志上找到这篇文章。故选 A。
B
The Royal Ballet is to stage a performance featuring a disabled dancer,
recognizing that being inclusive (包容) is “not just about diversity of race, but
also about diversity of physical ability”.
Joe Powell-Main, who uses a wheelchair and sticks to perform, tells a story about
overcoming life’s obstacles to pursue a dream that he has had since he was five.
Having danced from the age of four, he won a place at the famous Royal Ballet School
(RBS), even performing as a student in a Royal Ballet staging of TheNutcracker —
only to see his hopes of becoming a professional dancer hit by a condition that
affected his mobility.
During his fourth year of training, he developed injuries following a period
of growth, leading to surgery on his left knee. Complications (并发症) developed
and a serious car accident took a further toll on his body, bringing his training
to an end. Aged 15, he was using a wheelchair and assumed he would never dance again.
But his life was transformed after his mother spotted a leaflet about wheelchair
dancing, which played a part in helping him to accept his disability. Powell-Main
recalled, “When I acquired my disability, I completely thought dance wasn’t an
option for me and was completely over. Then why not ballet? In terms of partnering,
it’s a new way of doing things.”
He took part in the Royal Ballet’s platform Draft Works, which has now been
extended and he’ll perform it as a 10-minute duet (双人舞) with Lubach. “Powell-Main
made an impression on me. Dancing with him was really special, which has opened up
refreshing possibilities, new ways of partnering, sharing weight between each other,
using speed and dynamic in different ways,” Lubach said.
Emma Southworth, the Royal Ballet’s creative producer, said, “If someone has
a wheelchair, what are the possibilities of moving in a wheelchair? If the stick
becomes the extension of the arm, what does that mean? If we’re really being properly
inclusive, we’ve got to look at how we work with disabled performers.”
4. What was a turning point in Powell-Main’s life?
A. A serious car accident.
B. The surgery on his left knee.
C. A leaflet about wheelchair dancing.
D. The performance in The
Nutcracker.
5. What does the underlined word “toll” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Step.
Damage.
B. Risk.
C. Break.
D.
6. What can we learn about Powell-Main?
A. He refused to submit to the fate despite his disability.
B. He has been suffering from the knee injuries since he was five.
C. He stood out in RBS due to his hard work and professional skills.
D. His dancing career was totally ruined by the unexpected car accident.
7. What might be the best title?
A. A special performance
B. A life full of obstacles
C. A unique wheelchair dancer
D. The Royal Ballet’s rich
diversity
【答案】4. C
5. D
6. A
7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了英国皇家芭蕾舞团残疾演员 Joe Powell-Main 的故
事，他用轮椅和拐杖表演。文章讲述了一个克服生活障碍，追求他从 5 岁起就拥有的梦想的
故事。
【4 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“But his life was transformed after his mother spotted
a leaflet about wheelchair dancing, which played a part in helping him to accept
his disability.(但在他的母亲看到一张关于轮椅舞蹈的传单后，他的生活发生了改变，这
在一定程度上帮助他接受了自己的残疾)”可知，Powell-Main 人生的一个转折点是一张关
于轮椅舞蹈的传单。故选 C。
【5 题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“During his fourth year of training, he developed injuries
following a period of growth, leading to surgery on his left knee.(在他训练的第
四年，在一段时间的成长后，他受伤了，导致他的左膝做了手术)”和下文“bringing his
training to an end. Aged 15, he was using a wheelchair and assumed he would never
dance again.(结束了他的训练 15 岁时，他坐在轮椅上，以为自己再也不会跳舞了)”可推
知，并发症和一场严重的车祸对他的身体造成了进一步的损害，导致最后坐上了轮椅。由此
可知，划线词 toll 与 damage(损害)意思接近。故选
【6 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“When I acquired my disability, I completely thought dance
wasn’t an option for me and was completely over. Then why not ballet? In terms of
partnering, it’s a new way of doing things.(当我患上残疾时，我完全认为舞蹈不是
我的选择，我彻底放弃了。那么为什么不芭蕾舞？就合作而言，这是一种新的做事方式)”
第五段中的““Powell-Main made an impression on me. Dancing with him was really
special, which has opened up refreshing possibilities, new ways of partnering,
sharing weight between each other, using speed and dynamic in different ways,”
Lubach said.(“Powell-Main 给我留下了深刻的印象。和他一起跳舞真的很特别，这开辟
了令人耳目一新的可能性，新的合作方式，彼此分担重量，以不同的方式使用速度和活力，”
Lubach 说)”可推知，尽管有残疾，Powell-Main 拒绝向命运屈服。故选 A。
【7 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Joe Powell-Main, who uses a wheelchair and sticks to
perform, tells a story about overcoming life’s obstacles to pursue a dream that
he has had since he was five.( Joe Powell-Main 用轮椅和拐杖表演，他讲述了一个克
服生活障碍，追求他从 5 岁起就拥有的梦想的故事)”及下文对 Joe Powell-Main 的介绍可
知，文章讲述了英国皇家芭蕾舞团残疾演员 Joe Powell-Main 的故事，他用轮椅和拐杖进行
表演。由此可知，A unique wheelchair dancer(一个独特的轮椅舞者)适合作本文最佳标题。
故选 C。
C
Advanced technology brings with it a lot of benefits to us. You can now prevent
the speech of a single target person from being recorded by using a device called
voice jammer.
Voice jammers work much like noise-canceling headphones, which effectively
remove unwanted background sound waves out of existence by playing back a copy of
the unwanted sound with its wave pattern inverted (反向的).
Such voice jammers generally stop electronic eavesdropping ( 窃 听 ) on
conversations by broadcasting inverse sound waves that affect all microphones within
earshot.
This can prevent nearby people’s phones from picking up their voices if they
try to make a call, and can stop them interacting with smart assistants, warning
that something strange is going on.
Now Qiben Yan at Michigan State University and his colleagues have created a
voice jammer that can target a specific voice without causing interruption to anyone
else. They did this by training an artificial intelligence called a neural network
to isolate (隔断) a speaker’s voice, allowing the jammer to create an inverse sound
matched to their speech.
