Lynda La Plante is the writer of Prime Suspect and the best-selling author of more than 40 books. Her new novel Hidden Killers is out now. She is talking about three books that deeply affected her.

Wuthering Heights

By Emily Bronte

One night as a child, I walked quietly into the bathroom when I heard a voice calling, “Let me in; let me in!” along with a terrible knock on a window coming from my grandma’s room. Quite afraid, I cried, “Help me! Where’s the ghost?” Grandma looked up and said, “Don’t be silly; I’m listening to a story on the radio called Wuthering Heights.” I joined my grandma and realized then how you could take a story from a book and change it to a different medium (媒介).a

The Water-Babies

By Charles Kingsley

This classic Victorian story caught my imagination as a child. It made me consider the unfairness of life — why is one child sleeping in comfort and another forced to climb through a chimney (烟囱)? I especially loved all the questions Tom asks on his adventures, many of which are about social unfairness. All my life I’ve asked questions too.

The Faerie Queene

By Edmund Spenser

I used to have problems reading — I was told I had “word blindness”. My mother gave me a copy of Spenser’s poem and said, “If you can learn some of this then you’ll be able to read anything.” I rose to the challenge. I learned it off by heart and was so proud of myself for keeping something that difficult in mind. Then I learned that I could learn words just as well as anyone.

21. How did Lynda first know about the story of Wuthering Heights?

A. By reading a book borrowed from her grandma.

B. By listening to it on the radio.

C. By listening to her grandma’s story.

D. By reading a ghost story.

22. Which book made Lynda form the habit of asking questions?

A. Hidden Killers. B. Wuthering Heights.

C. The Water-Babies. D. The Faerie Queene.

23. What change did Lynda show after reading The Faerie Queene?

A. She found pleasure in writing poems.

B. She fell in love with poems.

C. She began to believe in herself.

D. She became word-smart.

B

My name is Deirdre Veneracion and I am a paraglider（滑翔伞） pilot. I’ve been paragliding since I was 11.

My dad and I arrive at our local fly site on a June morning. We meet our instructor and spend the first 20 minutes watching the wind cycles. I go through my pre-flight steps and turn on my radio. At last, I take a step and feel the ground under me fall away. I feel the pressure of my weight on the canopy (伞衣).

After 15 minutes of playing with the wind, my father radios me from the place where he is about to take off. “How is the wind?” “Perfect!” I say. Dad takes off behind me.

I have done almost 100 flights and yet every flight amazes me just as much or even more than my first. I love the unpredictability of each flight. Every flight is different. After 15 minutes, I decide to land.

Now, I’m over a rice field. It is a much smaller landing than most landing zones but it’s possible. Out of nowhere, I feel my canopy become unstable (不稳定的). It loses pressure and falls directly in front of me. I am falling. I have butterflies in my stomach. I pull my brake (制动器) line, in the hope that my wing will get pressure again but it doesn’t. I look towards my dad and see that he is also in trouble. It’s as if we were inside a washing machine being thrown up and down. I won’t make it to the landing zone in front of me. To my right is a narrow (狭窄的) stream with hardly any water in it. I make my decision: the narrow stream is my best chance of landing safely.

As I touch down, I check on my dad and am glad to hear that he is fine. Local villagers come to check on me but, surprisingly, I am uninjured.

This is one of those times when we are reminded that no preparation can prevent Mother Nature from surprising us.

24. What does the author do before taking off?

A. She watches the weather.

B. She has a talk with her father.

C. She turns off the radio.

D. She gives instructions.

25. What does the attraction of paragliding lie in the author’s eyes?

A. The pleasant wind.

B. The success of each flight.

C. The excitement of landing.

D. The uncertainty of each flight.

26. What kind of feeling does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 probably show?

A. Happiness. B. Nervousness. C. Anger. D. Luck.

27. What happens in the process of the author’s landing?

A. She hurts herself.

B. She asks her dad for help.

C. She sees a washing machine below.

D. She changes her mind about the landing site.

C

Japan is starting to experiment with self-driving buses in rural (乡村的) communities, such as the town of Nishikata, where the elderly are living a hard life because of fewer bus and taxi services as the population ages and becomes smaller.

The advance of the self-driving technology is making cities such as Paris and Singapore experiment with such services, which could prove important in Japan, where populations are not only graying, but becoming smaller, in rural areas.

Japan could start the self-driving services for communities that are far from cities by 2020, if the experiments begun this month prove successful.

The government plans to turn highway rest stops into centers from which to drive the elderly to medical and banking services.

“Smaller towns in Japan are graying even faster than cities, and there are just not enough workers to drive buses and taxis,” said Hiroshi Nakajima of mobile gaming software maker DeNA Co.

In the initial (最初的) experiments, the elderly of Nishikata were sent from a service area to some organizations providing healthcare services.

“I worry about not being able to go out when I’m no longer able to drive,” said one test rider, Shizu Yuzawa, adding that she would be open to using such services.

The test also checked the vehicle’s safety in road conditions, and if those crossing its path would react to the warning it gives.

The ride, at a speed of about 10 kilometers per hour, felt comfortable and safe, said test taker Mieko Shimazaki, 71, but her 72-year-old husband, Susumu, said, “Self-driving cars could be useful in the future, but I’d like to see them go faster, at least at 40 kilometers per hour.”

28. Why are driverless buses appearing in Nishikata?

A. Nobody there can drive a bus.

B. Its population is aging and falling.

C. People there welcome new things.

D. People there can hardly afford cars.

29. What does the government plan to do?

A. Provide healthcare services.

B. Train more bus and taxi drivers.

C. Produce more and more driverless cars.

D. Set up centers for picking up passengers.

30. What was Shizu Yuzawa’s attitude toward the self-driving services?

A. She was in favor of them.

B. She was doubtful about them.

C. She was uncertain about them.

D. She was strongly against them.

31. Which of the following about self-driving buses did Susumu think could improve?

A. Their speed. B. Their safety. C. Their space. D. Their price.

D

The skies are raining big blocks of ice, and experts are trying to learn what’s going on.

For the second time in six days, California was attacked by ice balls. The latest happened on early Thursday. A large block of ice dropped into Loma Linda, California. The ice crashed through the metal roof (房顶) of a fitness center, leaving a hole up to 2½ feet wide. No one was hurt.

Two tennis players were playing outside the Drayson Center on Thursday morning. Suddenly they heard a strange sound, said Crawford, an official of the Loma Linda Fire Department.

A similar event happened last Saturday in Oakland, California. Early in the morning an ice ball dropped into a field at Bushrod Park and made a hole up to 2 feet wide. Luckily, no one in the park was injured.

One theory (理论) is the ice was dropped from planes. But there’s little direct support for that. A few experts have suggested there may be other causes of similar ice falls, perhaps even global (全球的) warming.

Stories about dropping ice go back for centuries. They didn’t begin to receive serious scientific attention until a few years ago, however, when Spain was attacked by a dozen large ice balls in 2000.

Scientist Jesus Martinez-Frias in Madrid and his team have collected reports of forty cases around the world since 1999 of puzzling falling ice. He thinks the ice forms in the air by a process similar to the formation of hail (冰雹) inside storms but without a storm.

Martinez-Frias believes global warming is causing the troposphere (对流层) to rise. This means the roof of the troposphere is forced to a greater height, where it cools more than normal. Thus, the temperature difference between warm and cold air in the troposphere produces strong up-and-down winds that repeat the hail-formation process, without a storm.

32. What took place on Thursday morning?

A. A fitness center caught fire.

B. A big ice ball fell in Loma Linda.

C. There was heavy rain in Loma Linda.

D. Two tennis players were hit by an ice ball.

33. What is the similarity between the two events in California?

A. Both were seen by Crawford.

B. No building was destroyed.

C. No one was injured.

D. Both caused a large number of holes.

34. What do we learn about dropping ice?

A. It is very common around the world.

B. It often happens in Spain in recent years.

C. It is most likely to be produced by planes.

D. It has been carefully studied since 2000.

35. What is the cause of ice falls according to Martinez-Frias?

A. Strong winds above the troposphere. B. The formation of hail.

C. Global warming. D. Big storms.

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。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Secret codes (密码)keep messages private. Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.

People have used secret codes for thousands of years. _36_ Code breaking never lags(落后) far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.

There are three main types of cryptography. _37_ For example, the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels” Spell out the hidden message “Meet me.”

_38__ You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Let’s number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read “13 5 5 20 13 5.”

A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. _39__ For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me.” The message “Bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.”__40__ However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.

A. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.

B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.

C. It is very hard to break a code without the code book.

D. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.

E. Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.

F. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.

G. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.
