阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Robotics is a complex field. But brothers Sanjay and Arvind Seshan found an early passion for it. In 2014, they started a mission to make 21． easier for others to learn robotics by creating a website, 22． they teach people to code.
The story started when they were looking for materials for learning how to program, and they 23． (realize) that there was not really anything good online. Then they came up 24． an idea of creating a brief set of lessons from which kids and adults can learn 25． (easy) to program.
The website started with basic lessons on robotics and coding. But now the lessons can support kids who 26． (involve) with robotics for years and who want to learn something new. The brothers thought that one of the reasons why kids liked it 27． (be) that they were being taught by other kids.
The brothers understand that robotics takes 28． (patient) and lots of time. They recall a project 29． (call) Pix3l Plott3r, a robot that would print people's pictures. It took them two years to get a fully working model, and they made six or more versions. The Seshan brothers' advice is never 30． (give) up if something does not work the first time and to try different ways of solving the problem.
【答案】21．it；22．where；23．realized；24．with；25．easily；26．have been involved；27．was；28．patience；29．called；30．to give
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了两兄弟为帮助他人学习编程，创建了一个网站提供教学课程，帮助人们更容易地学习机器人技术。
【点评】考查语法填空，本题考点涉及代词，定语从句，时态，介词，副词，语态，名词，非谓语动词以及固定搭配等多个知识点的考查，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
21．句意：2014年，他们开始了一项使命，通过创建一个网站教人们编程，让其他人更容易学习机器人技术。此处应用it作形式宾语，真正宾语是后面的动词不定式短语to learn robotics。故填it。
22．句意：2014年，他们开始了一项使命，通过创建一个网站教人们编程，让其他人更容易学习机器人技术。 hey teach people to code 是非限制性定语从句，先行词是website，关系词在从句中作地点状语，应用关系词副词where引导。故填where。
23．句意：故事开始于他们寻找学习编程的材料时，他们意识到网上没有很好的东西。依据“The story started when they were looking for materials for learning how to program, and”可知and前后要保持时态一致，应用一般过去时。故填realized。
24．句意：然后他们想出了一个主意，创建一套简短的课程，让孩子和成年人可以轻松地学习编程。come up with固定短语，“提出”，故填with。
25．句意：然后他们想出了一个主意，创建一套简短的课程，让孩子和成年人可以轻松地学习编程。此处应用副词作状语，修饰动词learn，故填easily。

27．句意：兄弟俩认为孩子们喜欢它的一个原因是他们是由其他孩子教的。从句主语为one of the reasons，为单数意义，因此be动词也要用单数，又因这里为一般过去时态。故填was。
28．句意：兄弟俩明白，机器人技术需要耐心和大量时间。依据空前的动词take可知此处应用名词作宾语，patience是不可数名词。故填patience。
29．句意：他们回忆起一个被称为Pix3l Plott3r的项目，Pix3l Plott3r是一个可以打印人的照片的机器人。动词call和逻辑主语project之间是动宾关系，应用过去分词表被动，作后置定语。故填called。
30．句意：兄弟俩的建议是，如果第一次没有成功，永远不要放弃。此处应用动词不定式作表语。故填to。
四、阅读理解
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项 （A 、B 、C 和 D ）中，选出最佳选项。
So you want to be a citizen scientist The National Science Foundation (NSF) has got you covered. NSF supports citizen science across all areas of science, whether your passion is to scan the night sky, or explore your own backyard.
Join a flock of birders
eBird is an online platform that allows bird-watchers to go online and record their sightings to a database. With more than 100,000 active users, eBird's system is a treasure of information on bird population, distribution and habitat, which users can explore in real time.
Count every drop
The Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network (CoCoRaHS) is the largest provider of daily precipitation observations in the United States. Volunteers set up rain gauges and record data every time a rain, snow or hail storm passes over. Data is organized and shared on the CoCoRaHS website, and used by scientists, farmers and more.
Search for stars with your computer
Einstein@Home uses your computer's idle time to search for space signals. The project has already had major successes: Volunteers discovered about 50 stars, using data from Puerto Rico's Arecibo Observatory and Australia's Parkes Observatory. Einstein@Home also searches for gravitational-wave signals using data from NSF's Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory.
Be part of a supercomputer
To link all those home computers, Einstien@Home uses software called the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing, better known as BOINC. The software choreographs(安排，筹划) the technical aspectof volunteer computing and helps you use radio telescope signals to search for alien life.
Join the plankton party
Without plankton, life in the ocean would not exist. These tiny organisms form the base of the food chain, and play an important role in the global carbon cycle. Plankton Portal enlists citizen scientists to identify images of lankton, snapped by the In Situ Icthyoplankton Imaging System (ISIIS), an underwater robot engineered at the University of Miami. ISIIS has taken millions of images in oceans around the world and upload them into a database; classifying the images helps researchers understand plankton diversity, habitat and behavior.

31．考查细节理解。根据 Join a flock of birders 部分中的“eBird is an online platform that allows bird-watchers to go online and record their sightings to a database. With more than 100,000 active users, eBird's system is a treasure of information on bird population, distribution and habitat, which users can explore in real time.”观鸟者可以把他们所看到的景象录入数据库以便可以和平台使用者们分享，也就是观鸟者可以通过这个平台提供和分享鸟类信息，故选D。
32．考查细节理解。通过阅读每个项目可知只有“Be part of a supercomputer”这个项目没有谈到使用数据或数据库。故选B。
33．考查主旨大意。本文介绍了一些普通老百姓可以参与的科研项目。故选A。
五、任务型阅读
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
HowtoSucceedinScience
To succeed in science, you need a lot more than luck. In my view, you have to combine intelligence with a willingness not to follow conventions when they block your forward path. Thus, these have come to be my rules for success.
34．
That might sound proud, but the fact is that you must always turn to people who are brighter than you. It's like playing any game. Even as a child, I never wanted to play games with anyone who was as bad as I was. If you win, it gives you no pleasure. And in the game of science or life, the highest goal isn't simply to win; it's to win at something really difficult. 35．
Take risks.
To make a huge success, a scientist has to be prepared to get into deep trouble. If you are going to make a huge jump in science, you will very likely be unqualified to succeed by definition. 36． This can be more than personally upsetting.
Never do anything that bores you.
My experience in science is that someone is always telling you to do things, and then leaves you alone. I'm not good enough to do well in something I dislike. 37．
It's very hard to succeed if you don't want to be with other scientists, because you have to go to key meetings where you spot key facts that would have escaped you. And you have to chat with your competitors, even if you find them objectionable.
So my final rule is: 38．
A. Meet challenges with great courage.
B. If you can't stand being with your real peers, get out of science.
C. Put it another way, it's to go somewhere beyond your ability and come out on top.
D. Make sure you always have someone to save you from a deep mess.
E. Avoid foolish people.
F. In fact, I find it hard to do well in something I like.
G. Besides, you even have to be prepared to disbelieve your scientific heroes.
【答案】34．E；35．C；36．G；37．F；38．B
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了如何在科学上取得成功。
【点评】考查七选五，本文是一篇教育类阅读，要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。
34．根据空后“That might sound proud, but the fact is that you must always turn to people who are brighter than you.”这听起来可能很自豪，但事实是，你必须总是求助于比你聪明的人。可知，作者认为只有和比自己聪明的人在一起才能学到东西，所以本段建议避免和愚蠢的人在一起。 E. Avoid foolish people. “避开愚蠢的人。”符合语境，故选E。
35． 根据空前“And in the game of science or life, the highest goal isn't simply to win; it's to win at something really difficult. ”在科学或生命的游戏中，最高目标不仅仅是获胜；在真正困难的事情上获胜。可知，作者认为在科学或生活的游戏中，最高的目标不仅仅是获胜，而是做成一些非常困难的事情。换句话说，最高目标是去超出自己能力范围的领域并名列前茅。C. Put it another way, it's to go somewhere beyond your ability and come out on top.“换言之，就是超越你的能力，走在最前面。”是对前一句话的进一步解释，故选C。
36．根据空前“To make a huge success, a scientist has to be prepared to get into deep trouble. If you are going to make a huge jump in science, you will very likely be unqualified to succeed by definition. ”要取得巨大成功，科学家必须准备好陷入困境。如果你想在科学上取得巨大的进步，你很可能没有资格取得成功。G. Besides, you even have to be prepared to disbelieve your scientific heroes.“此外，甚至也要准备好怀疑你心中的科学英雄.”也就是要勇于质疑权威，符合语境，故选G。
37． 根据空前"do well in something I dislike"做好我不喜欢的事情，可知，在科学研究中，对于自己不喜欢的事情作者做不好，但对于自己喜欢的事情作者也不一定能做好。F. In fact, I find it hard to do well in something I like.“事实上，我发现很难做好我喜欢的事情。”符合语境，故选F。
38．根据空前“It's very hard to succeed if you don't want to be with other scientists, because you have to go to key meetings where you spot key facts that would have escaped you. And you have to chat with your competitors, even if you find them objectionable.”如果你不想和其他科学家在一起，那就很难成功，因为你必须参加关键会议，在那里你会发现你可能没有注意到的关键事实。你必须和你的竞争对手聊天，即使你觉得他们很讨厌。可知，作者建议要和其他科学家交流，从而发现自己忽略的关键事实。甚至要和你的竞争对手交流，即使你觉得他们令人反感。因此本段建议B. If you can't stand being with your real peers, get out of science.“如果你无法忍受与你真正相匹敌的人一起工作，你就不要进行科学研究了。”符合语境，故选B。
