11、who came to fight at Troy. Before unfolding this impressive muster roll (花名册)，Homer makes a special, public appeal to the Muses to ensure he gets the facts right:Tell me now, Muses, who have your homes on Olympus- for you are goddesses, and ever-present, and know all things, and we hear only rumour:

12、 nor do we know anythingThese lines reflect a central claim of epic poetrythat through the inspiration of the Muses, daughters of Memory, it can preserve the knowledge of people and the events of the past a formidable power in the non-literate, oral cultures in which the Iliad evolved. The Iliad was

13、 composed around 750-700 BC, but its origins lie at least some five centuries earlier, deep in the Mycenaean Bronze Agethe world the Iliad poetically evokes.The Iliad is keenly aware of its role as the keeper of memory, and credibility is central to its storytelling. The epic is a work of fiction, a

14、nd relates the events of a few weeks in the tenth and final year of the Trojan War fought between Greeks and Trojans over beautiful Helen, the Greek queen who deserted her husband to elope with a Trojan prince. Its cast of characters includes not only warriors and their captives and families, but th

15、e immortal Olympian gods, who perform many supernatural acts in the course of their eager participation in the action around Troy.The Iliad has the reputation for being an exclusively(专门地) male epic, weak on female characters, but to choose only one exampleHomers delicate characterization of Helen a

16、s a woman driven by reluctant remorseful(悔恨的) passion is as hauntingly（萦绕心头地）credible as any Anna Karenina.Longinus, a scholar in the 1st Century AD wrote that in recording as he does the wounding of the gods, their quarrels, vengeance, tears, imprisonment and all their passions Homer has done his b

17、est to make the men in the Iliad gods and gods men. The scene between Achilles and Priam displays this inversion and crystallises what the Iliad poets had learned in the course of the epics Journey. That the gods we worship might not answer, and on occasion humanity must rise to fill their place. Th

18、at glory is closely associated with painful loss. That the victor shares the humanity of the most vulnerable of the vanquished（战败者）; that there is no such thing as pure victory in war.1、The Iliad about the legendary Trojan War, might date back to _.Athe third century BC Bthe seventh century BCCthe e

29、ding, the Canadian novelist Alberto Manguel describes a remarkable transformation of human consciousness, which took place around the 10th century AD: the arrival of silent reading. Human beings have been reading for thousands of years, but in ancient times, the normal thing was to read aloud. With

30、the arrival of silent reading, Manguel writes, the reader was at last able to establish an unrestricted relationship with the book and the words. The words no longer needed to occupy the time required to pronounce them. The readers thoughts inspected them at leisure, drawing new ideas from them, all

31、owing comparisons from memory or from other books.To read silently is to free your mind to reflect, to remember, to question and compare. The cognitive scientist Maryanne Wolf calls this freedom “the secret gift of time to think”. A thousand years later, critics fear that digital technology has put

32、this gift in danger. The Internets flood of information, together with the distractions of social media, threatens to overwhelm the space of reading, leaving us in what the journalist Nicholas Carr has called “the shallows”. In Carrs view, the “endless, tempting buzz” of the Internet endangers our v

33、ery being: “One of the greatest dangers we face,” he writes, “as we give up control over the flow of our thoughts and memories to a powerful electronic system, is a slow damage to our humanness and our humanity.”Theres no question that digital technology presents challenges to the reading brain. But

34、 seen from a historical perspective, digital reading and silent reading look like differences of degree, rather than of kind. To the extent that digital reading represents something new, its potential cuts both ways. Done badly, the Internet reduces us to mindless clickers, racing numbly to the bott

35、om of a bottomless feed; but done well, it has the potential to expand the very contemplative (沉思的) space that we have prized in ourselves ever since we learned to read without moving our lips.In the fifth century BC, Socrates worried that writing would weaken human memory, and stifle(扼杀) judgment.

36、In fact, as Wolf notes in her 2007 book Proust and the Squid: the Story and Science of the Reading Brain, the opposite happened: Faced with the written page, the readers brain develops new capacities.The Internet may cause our minds to wander off, and yet a quick look at the history of books suggest

37、s that we have been wandering off all along. When we read, the eye does not progress steadily along the line of text; it alternates between saccades little jumpsand brief stops, not unlike the movement of the mouses cursor across a screen of hypertext.Its true that studies have found that readers gi

38、ven text on a screen do worse on recall and comprehension tests than readers given the same text on paper. But a 2015 study by the German educator Johannes Naumann suggests the opposite. He gave a group of high-school students the job of tracking down certain pieces of information on websites; he fo

39、und that the students who regularly did research online were better at this task than students who used the Internet mostly to send email, chat, and blog.A new generation of digital writers prefers to include interactive features. The 2014 iPad novel, Pry, tells the story of a demolition(爆破) expert

40、returning home from the first Gulf War. The story is told in text, photographs, video clips, and audio. It uses an interface(界面) that allows you to follow the action and shift between levels of awareness. As you read text on the screen, describing characters and plot, you draw your fingers apart and

41、 see a photograph of the chief character, his eyes opening on the world. Pinch your finger shut and you visit his troubled unconscious; words and images race by, as if you are inside his memory. Pry is the opposite of a shallow work; its whole play is between the surface and the depths of the human

42、mind. Reading it is stimulating.1、In Alberto Manguels opinion, silent reading _.Ais an abnormal thing to human consciousnessBoffers readers mind freedom and time to thinkCstrengthens readers power of memory and reflectionDallows readers to gain an insight into books and words2、Why is digital technol

43、ogy considered to have endangered our being?AIt presents challenges to the reading brain.BIt harms our humanness and humanity gradually.CIt is very likely to expand our contemplative space.DIt leaves our thoughts and memories out of control.3、The sentence “The fear of technology is not new.” should

44、be placed in _.ABCD4、What can we infer from Johannes Naumanns study?AIts easier to collect information on the Internet than in books.BPeoples habit of using the Internet influences their performance.CThe Internet isnt supposed to be used as a tool of entertainment.DPaper reading is better than scree

45、n reading in improving comprehension.5、The 2014 iPad novel, Pry, is mentioned in the last paragraph to _.Aintroduce the occurrence of a reading revolutionBshow the technology employed in digital readingCprove digital reading not shallow but attractiveDillustrate the impact digital reading has on our

46、 life.6、What is probably the best title for the passage?AThe deep space of digital readingBThe timely arrival of silent readingCThe development of traditional readingDThe potential damage of electronic books24（8分） Created in 1998 by Casey and Shelley Black， the Northern Lights Wildlife Wolf Center f

47、ocuses on not only rescuing young abandoned wolves but educating the public Unlike other centers， you can actually walk with the wolves and have exciting， handson interaction with them here And so， we gathered one late winter morning to learn， prepare and walkScrappy and Flora，our wolves that day，we

48、re brought to the center when only a few days old They lived in the house with us for the first several months We treated them like human babies， fed them and slept with them， said Shelley So， they are totally used to people However， these are wild animals For that reason， Shelley and Casey explaine

49、d， the walk is totally on the wolfs terms We dont approach them， but if they come up to us， we can touch them With all this in mind， we headed for the woods We were walking on a logging road when suddenly，Flora， all 60 pounds of her，hurried up to me and raised up on her legs She was almost as tall a

50、s me As she leaned in， put her huge muddy paws on my shoulders and sniffed my face， apparently she was saying hello in wolf talkWe walked farther， maybe half a mile， while Scrappy and Flora dashed in and out of the woods stopping to occasionally roll in the snow，dig for this or that and just play Th

51、en we all headed into the trees to a picturesque stream where the wolves splashed，drank and had a great timeOne could point out that this whole adventure was staged and quite artificial But the purpose， Casey and Shelley said，is to explain the wolves place in the environment and，primarily，to let peo

52、ple know wolves don t have to be universally fearedthey really don t hide secretly in the woods just waiting to eat people，but they d rather avoid people，for the most part1、How is the Northern Lights Wildlife Wolf Center different from others？AIt trains and educates wild wolvesBIt aims to rescue you

55、publicize wolf huntingCTo promote environmental protectionDTo clarify some conventional views of wolves25（10分） Growing up, I remember my father as a silent, serious man not the sort of person around whom one could laugh. As a teenager arriving in America, knowing nothing, I wanted a father who could

56、 explain the human journey. In college, when friends called home for advice, I would sink into deep depression for what I did not have.Today, at twenty-seven, I have come to rediscover them in ways that my teenage mind would not allow as adults and as friends with their own faults and weaknesses.One

57、 night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. These was some trouble. Later, Dad shared the problem with me. Apparently my legal training had earned me some privileges in his eyes. I talked through the problem with Dad, analyzing the purposes of the people involved and offe

58、ring several negotiation strategies. He listened patiently before finally admitting, “I cant think like that. I am a simple man.”Dad is a brilliant scientist who can deconstruct the building blacks of nature. Yet human nature is a mystery to him. That night I realized that he was simply not skilled

59、at dealing with people, much less the trouble of a conflicted teenager. Its not in his nature to understand human desires.And so, there it was it was no ones fault that my father held no interest in human lives while I placed great importance in them. We are at times born more sensitive, wide-eyed,

60、and dreamy than our parents and become more curious and idealistic than them. Dad perhaps never expected me for a child. And I, who knew Dad as an intelligent man, had never understood that his intelligence did not cover all of my feelings.It has saved me years of questioning and confusion. I now se
