B.Prevent.C.Change. D.Involve.答案B[词义猜测题。根据上文可知，加大的字母间距可以通过减少所谓的“拥挤效应”来发挥作用，从而减少阅读错误，因此，画线词所在句子指“拥挤效应”会阻碍字母的识别，降低阅读速度，故画线词意为“阻碍”，与B项的词义最为接近。]11.Whatcanbeinferredaboutcolouredoverlaysfromparagraph5?A.Theymightnothavebeenevaluatedfairly.B.Theymightnotberecommendedbyexperts.C.Theymightworkbetterinshortreading.D.Theymighthavesomedisadvantages.答案A[推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Previousresearchsuggeststheirbenefitsmaynotbecomeapparent...mayhaveputcolouredoverlaysatadisadvantage”可知，如果阅读时间少于10分钟，颜色标注的好处可能不会显现出来，而研究中测试的短阅读时间可能会使颜色标注处于不利地位。由此可知，颜色标注可能没有得到公平的评估。]Likeanydoctor,JacquesFellaywantstogivehispatientsthebestcare.Hiddeninsideourbodiesaregenetic(基因的)markersthatcantellhimwhichpatientscouldprobablyhavediseasessuchasAIDSandprovideearlytreatments.However,thereareworriesforFellay:theycontainsensitivedetailsthatcouldleadtoembarrassment,discriminationorevenworse.Anewkindofencryption,fullyhomomorphicencryption(FHE)(完全同态加密),ismakingitpossiblefordatauserstorunmultipleoperationsongeneticdatawithoutseeingthecontents.Thiscanhelpendbigdata’sprivacyproblems,andFellay’spatientscanbesomeofthefirsttobenefit.In1978,theconceptofhomomorphicencryption(HE)wasfirstlyproposed.Accordingtoit,onecouldencryptandsharedatawithothers,whocouldanalyzeandperformcalculationsonthedatawithnoideawhatitmeans.Aftergettingthedataback,thedatausercouldsimplyarriveattheresultusingthesecretkeyanditwillmaketotalsense.In2009,CraigGentryfirstlyprovidedaworkableFHEprogram.LikeHE,itrestsonamathematicalideacalledahomomorphism,whichmostlyreliesonusingalgebra(代数)tomapdatafromoneformtoanotherwithoutchangingitsunderlyingstructure.However,itsupportsmultipleoperationsonencrypteddata,ratherthanonlyonecalculationinHE.Later,GentrywentontoworkatIBM,whichnowhascomplicatedFHEtoolstorunencrypteddata.Inthemedicalfield,forexample,itdetectedsignsofpneumonia(肺炎)infectionbyapplyingFHEtoanalyzetheencryptedCTscansofmorethan1，500people’slungs.InapaperpublishedinOctober2021,theteamusedFHEtocollectdatafrommultiplesourcesandpredictedtheeffectofcancertreatmentsortheprocessofHIVinfection,asinFellay’scase.Workable,butstillslow:calculationsontheFHE－encrypteddatacouldtakemillionsoftimeslongerthanthoseonrawdata.But,asGoldwassersaid,“Ifyoubelievethatsecurityisnotaplus,butit’samust,theninsomesensethereisnooverhead.”【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章介绍了一种新型加密技术——完全同态加密程序的开发过程以及意义。12.WhatisFellayconcernedabout?A.Seriousdiseases.B.Sensitivepatients.C.Thesafetyofpersonaldata.D.Thelackofgeneticinformation.答案C[细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However，thereareworriesforFellay...orevenworse”可知，Fellay医生担忧隐藏在我们体内的基因标记物所包含的敏感细节被泄露后会导致尴尬、歧视甚至更糟，即他担心个人资料的安全问题。]13.InwhatwayisFHEdifferentfromHE?A.Itspeedsuptheanalyses.B.Itallowsmorecalculations.C.Itpreventsdirectaccesstodata.D.Itdependsontheuseofalgebra.答案B[细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句话“However，itsupportsmultipleoperationsonencrypteddata，ratherthanonlyonecalculationinHE”可知，完全同态加密支持对加密数据进行多次操作，而不是在同态加密中只进行一次计算。由此可知，完全同态加密和同态加密的区别在于完全同态加密允许多次计算。]14.WhatisGoldwasser’sattitudetowardsFHE?A.Contradictory. B.Unclear.C.Favorable. D.Intolerant.答案C[观点态度题。根据最后一段Goldwasser所说的话“Ifyoubelievethatsecurityisnotaplus，butit’samust，theninsomesensethereisnooverhead”可知，Goldwasser认为完全同态加密系统是加分项，即她对完全同态加密持赞成态度。]15.Whatisthemainideaofthetext?A.FHEprotectsprivacyinthebigdataera.B.FHEopensanewworldformedicalworkers.C.Gentryproposedanewencryptiontechnology.D.Homomorphicencryptiondevelopedovertime.答案A[文章大意题。文章开头以医生担心病人个人资料的安全问题为话题引入了完全同态加密程序，然后以此为线索对该程序进行介绍，即这篇文章主要讲述了大数据时代背景下完全同态加密程序保护个人隐私的功能。]Ⅱ.七选五HowStarWarsChangedMoviemakingForever“Maytheforcebewithyou！”IfyouareaStarWarsfan,thenyouhaveprobablyheardthisphrasemanytimes.__16__Somanycharacters,devices，andphrasesfromthemoviehavebecomewell－known.Butyoumightbesurprisedtofindouthowmuchthismoviehaschangedhowmoviesaremade.“Alongtimeagoinagalaxyfar,faraway...”ishowStarWarsbegins.Itsplotwasnotground－breaking.__17__Thestorywastypicalsciencefictionwithlotsofdrama,traditionalcharactersandgoodbattlingevil,inspaceandinhand－to－handfight.ItwasthespecialeffectsthatmadeStarWarsstandoutfromothermovies.Peoplestilltalkaboutthelightswords(剑)thatcouldcut,burnandmeltthroughmostsubstances.Spaceshipsspedthroughspaceandlandedonhuge,realistic－lookingspacestations.__18__WhenStarWarsfirstcameoutin1977,mostmovietheaterswerestand－alonebuildings,withjustonemoviescreen.UsingthemoneyStarWarshadmadeforthem,movie－theaterownersbuiltmoretheaters,leadingtothemultiplexes(多厅影院)thatarecommontoday.Theatersneededmoremoviestoshowonalltheadditionalmoviescreensandinallthenewmultiplexes.Sonewmoviecompaniessprangup,includingsmallonescreatingexperimentalmovies.__19__Someofthemethodsbecamepopularandothersfailed.But，thankstoStarWars,peoplegottoseenewtypesofmovies.__20__Therehadbeenmoviecontinuationspreviously,buttheywereoftenjustpoorimitationsofthefirstmovie.TheStarWarsmovieswereallpopular.Therehavebeentwotrilogies(三部曲)sofar,withmoreplanned.A.Theytriedoutnewtechniques.B.Infact,itwasquiteold－fashioned.C.Moviegoershadneverseenanythinglikeit.D.Thus,audiencebegantoenjoysciencefictionmoviesthere.E.StarWarswasthefirstreallysuccessfulmovietrilogyinhistory.F.Ifyouarenotafan,youarestilllikelyfamiliarwiththesewords.G.Ifyouareamoviemaker,youmaybeinspiredbythisclassicfilm.【语篇解读】本文是说明文。《星球大战》获得了空前的成功，并深深地影响了电影事业的发展与后续电影。16.F[F选项与前面的句式一致，且句中still一词与上文构成递进，故F项符合语境。]17.B[B选项中old－fashioned与上句中notground－breaking为近义词组，是对上句的进一步解释，故B项“实际上，这部电影的故事情节相当过时”符合语境。]18.C[根据上文对《星球大战》特效的描述“thelightswords(剑)thatcouldcut...realistic－lookingspacestations”可知，电影中的特效给观众留下了深刻印象。对比各选项可知，C项符合语境，即“影迷们从未看过这样的电影”。]19.A[此空可用词汇衔接法。空后的methods与选项A中的techniques对应，选项A中的They指代的是上句中的newmoviecompanies，故A项符合语境，即“它们尝试了新的技术”。]20.E[根据空后的“Therehadbeenmovie...poorimitationsofthefirstmovie”可知，以前的续集电影并不成功。由此可知，E项符合语境，即“《星球大战》是历史上第一部真正成功的三部曲电影”。trilogy在段尾复现。]A篇Para.2：redrawv.重新描绘setfooton踏上Para.3：featurev.由……主演，以……为特色，以……为主要组成coming－of－ageadj.成年的trackv.跟踪，追踪ontour巡回演出Para.4：diginto深入研究centeraround以……为中心B篇Para.1：kickoff开始，发起beddown换个地方睡觉Para.2：generatev.产生，引起C篇Para.2：instructvt.命令；指示participantn.参与者Para.3：declinen.减少onaverage平均inadditionto除……之外havenoimpacton...对……没有影响Para.4：recognitionn.识别Para.5：apparentadj.明显的put...atadisadvantage使……处于不利地位D篇Para.1：discriminationn.歧视Para.2：privacyn.隐私Para.3：makesense讲得通，有意义Para.4：workableadj.可行的encryptedadj.加密的relyon依靠Para.6：securityn.安全B篇译文：MikeFitz，卡特迈国家公园的前管理员，注意到那些拍摄熊的实时网络摄像机在网上产生了很多评论，所以他就让人们在网上投票选出他们最喜欢的胖熊。C篇译文：虽然我们发现颜色标注几乎没有什么好处，但我们建议如果孩子们发现这些颜色标注有助于阅读，就应该鼓励他们使用。D篇译文：和同态加密一样，它基于一种被称为同态的数学思想，主要依赖于使用代数将数据从一种形式映射到另一种形式，而不改变其底层结构。培优练(二十七)2025杭州高三教学质检40分钟Ⅰ.阅读理解ScienceandTechnologyCamp·Full－daycampforstudentsaged12－14·Four－weekprogramJuly5－30|Monday—Friday,9amto4pmWeek1|July5－9Week2|July12－16Week3|July19－23Week4|July26－30·RegistrationbeginsJune1，2024—registerforminimumtwoweeks.·Fees:$75registrationfee.$795perweek.Fullpaymentmustbemadeatthetimeofregistration.·ThedeadlineforthecancellationtoreceiveafullrefundisJune15,2024.CampStructureCampdaysarecomprisedofeightsessionswithtwosessionsperdaywhilethefinaldayoftheweekisreservedforoverviewsandreflection.Themorningsessionsbeginat9amandendat12noon,followedbyonehourforlunch.(Campersshouldbringtheirlunches.)Afternoonsessionsarescheduledfrom1pmto4pmwith15－minutebreaksmidwaythrougheachsession.Snacksareprovidedatbreaktime.(Foodallergiesshouldbereportedatthetimeofregistration.)CampContentScienceandTechnologycampaboveallemphasizesentertainmentwhileteachingstudentsabouthowwebsitesaredesignedusingvariouscodinglanguages,rocketdesign,practicalapplicationsofmathandphysics,andhowtobuildyourownhydraulicsystem.CampPersonnelThecampisheadedbythehusband－and－wifeteamofDoctorsJamesandSophieClarkwhoareexpertsinthefieldsofcomputerscienceandmechanicalengineering.Ourmissionistomakesureeveryonefeelsfullysupportedandexcitedtobehere.【语篇解读】本文是应用文，是一则科技夏令营广告。1.WhatisthelowestcostofattendingtheScienceandTechnologycamp?A.$75.
