Without the vast advances made by chemists, physicists, biologists, geologists and other diligent scientists, our standards of living would decline, our flourishing wealthy nation might come to an economic depression, and our people would suffer from diseases that could not be cured. As a society we ignorantly take advantage of the amenities provided by science, yet our lives would be altered interminably without them.Health care, one of the aspects of our society that separates us from our archaic ancestors, is founded exclusively on scientific discoveries and advances. Without the vaccines created by doctors, diseases such as polio, measles, hepatitis, and the flu would pose a threat to our citizens, for although some of these diseases may not be deadly, their side effects can be a vast detriment to an individual affected with the disease.In addition, science has developed perhaps the most awe-inspiring vital invention in the history of the world, the computer. Without the presence of this machine our world could exist, but the conveniences brought into life by the computer are unparalleled.Despite the greatness of present-day innovators and scientism and their revelations, it is requisite to examine the amenities of science that our culture so blatantly disregards. For instance, the light bulb, electricity, the telephone, running water, and the automobile are present-day staples of our society, however, they were not present until scientists discovered them.Because of the contribution of scientists, our world is ever metamorphosing, and this metamorphosis economically and personally comprises our society, whether our society is cognizant of this or not.1.In the first paragraph the author implies that we（ ）.2.The author uses health care and vaccines to illustrate（ ）.3.Nothing, according to the author, can match the invention of the computer in term of（ ）.4.The author seems to be unhappy about（ ）.5.The authors tone in the passage is（ ）.问题1选项A.would not survive without scienceB.take the amenities of science for grantedC.could have raised the standards of living with scienceD.would be free of disease because of scientific with advances问题2选项A.how science has been developedB.what science means to societyC.what the nature of science isD.how disease affects society问题3选项A.powerB.noveltyC.benefitsD.complexity问题4选项A.peoples ignorance of their cultureB.peoples ignoring the amenities of scienceC.peoples making no contributions to societyD.peoples misunderstanding of scientific advance问题5选项A.criticalB.cognizantC.appreciativeD.paradoxical【答案】第1题:A第2题:A第3题:C第4题:B第5题:C【解析】1.推理判断题。由题干关键词定位到文章第一段“Without the vast advances made by chemists, physicists, biologists, geologists and other diligent scientists, our standards of living would decline, our flourishing wealthy nation might come to an economic depression, and our people would suffer from diseases that could not be cured”, 如果没有化学家、物理学家、生物学家、地质学家和其他勤奋的科学家所取得的巨大进步，我们的生活水平就会下降，我们繁荣富强的国家就会陷入经济萧条，我们的人民就会患上无法治愈的疾病。由此可知，科技对我们的生活是十分重要的。因此A选项符合题意。2.推理判断题。定位到文章第二段“Health care, one of the aspects of our society that separates us from our archaic ancestors, is founded exclusively on scientific discoveries and advances”, 医疗保健是我们社会的一个方面，它把我们和我们的古老祖先分开，它完全建立在科学发现和进步的基础上。由此可知，医疗保健和疫苗是科技发展的一个见证。因此A选项符合题意。3.推理判断题。由题干关键词定位到文章第三段“Without the presence of this machine our world could exist, but the conveniences brought into life by the computer are unparalleled”, 没有这台机器，我们的世界可能存在，但电脑带来的便利是无与伦比的。由此可知，电脑是一项伟大的发明，它所带来的便利和益处是其他发明难以企及的。因此C选项符合题意。4.作者意图题。由题干关键词定位到文章第四段“it is requisite to examine the amenities of science that our culture so blatantly disregards. For instance, the light bulb, electricity, the telephone, running water, and the automobile are present-day staples of our society, however, they were not present until scientists discovered them”, 但我们有必要检查我们的文化如此公然的忽视科学的便利设施。例如，电灯泡、电、电话、自来水和汽车是我们当今社会的必需品，然而，它们直到科学家发现后才出现。由此可知作者对
