【題目】 What’s in the scream? It is thought that the sound of a scream has an acoustic(聽(tīng)覺(jué)的) signature - an acoustic DNA that tells the listener’s ear that they are hearing a scream, even if it is not. “The scream may initially run to scare the attacking predator(捕食者). The study of screaming has the potential to help us understand the evolution of emotional communication,” says Jay Schwartz of Emory university.

Jay Schwartz and his colleagues asked 181 volunteers to listen to 75 sounds that included laughter, crying, moans, groans, and yells from acted origins, like television or movies, and more natural sources, such as a YouTube video of a child opening a present and screaming in delight. The listeners indicated whether or not each sound was something they considered a scream. “We did not provide any type of definition for a scream because we were trying to get at what is it in people’s minds that distinguishes a scream,” says Schwartz, who presented his work at a meeting of the Acoustical Society of America on 14 May.

When they analyzed the sound files, they found that the ones listed as screams had acoustic similarities. People were more likely to consider a sound a scream if it was higher in pitch(音高), and had a varied change in pitch, first moving up and then down at the end.

Rapid changes in amplitude - perceived as a rough, gravelly quality - also tended to be classified as screams more than sounds with a smoother tone. This sound was classified as a scream by 64 percent of the listeners. Surprisingly, a recording of a whistle was categorized as a scream by 70 percent of the participants. “It was because the whistle exhibited a lot of the acoustic qualities that we found to be associated with a scream, including high pitch and roughness,” says Schwartz.

【1】What was the scream used for in the beginning?

A.Frightening the enemies.B.Sharing the different acoustic DNA.

C.Attracting the volunteersD.Understanding the emotional evolution.

【2】What does Jay Schwartz’s research aim to understand?

A.Where people would scream.B.How people judged the scream.

C.Why people would scream.D.What was the best scream.

【3】What did the screams have in common?

A.Higher pitch.B.A peaceful mind.

C.Natural origins.D.Different functions.

【4】Why was the whistle considered a scream by most listeners?

A.It had the smoother tone.B.It showed some roughness.

C.It made listeners satisfied.D.It did great harm to people.

【題目】 It is reported in the national press that a letter written by Charles Darwin in 1875 has been returned to the Smithsonian Institution Archives (檔案館) by the FBI after being stolen twice.

“We realized in the mid-1970s that it was missing,” says Effie Kapsalis, head of the Smithsonian Institution Archives. “It was noted as missing and likely taken by an intern (實(shí)習(xí)生), from what the FBI is telling us. Word got out that it was missing when someone asked to see the letter for research purposes,” and the intern put the letter back. “The intern likely took the letter again once nobody was watching it.”

Decades passed. Finally, the FBI received a tip that the stolen document was located very close to Washington, D.C. Their art crime team recovered the letter but were unable to press charges because the time of limitations had ended. The FBI worked closely with the Archives to determine that the letter was both authentic and definitely Smithsonian’s property.

The letter is in fairly good condition, in spite of being out of the care of trained museum staff for so long. “It was luckily in good shape,” says Kapsalis, “and we just have to do some minor things in order to be able to unfold it. It has some glue on it that has colored it slightly, but nothing that will prevent us from using it. After it is repaired, we will take digital photos of it and that will be available online. One of our goals is to get items of high research value or interest to the public online.”

It would now be difficult for an intern, visitor or a thief to steal a document like this. “Archiving practices have changed greatly since the 1970s,” says Kapsalis, “and we keep our high value documents in a safe that I don’t even have access to.”

【1】What happened to Darwin’s letter in the 1970s?

A.It was recovered by the FBI.

B.It was put in the archives for research purposes.

C.It was stolen more than once.

D.It was purchased by the Smithsonian Archives.

【2】What did the FBI do after the recovery of the letter?

A.They pressed criminal charges in vain.B.They kept it in a special safe.

C.They arrested the suspect immediately.D.They proved its authenticity.

【3】What will the Smithsonian Institution Archives do with the letter according to Kapsalis?

A.Reserve it for research purposes only.B.Make it available online.

C.Keep it a permanent secret.D.Turn it into an object of high interest.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.A Letter by Charles Darwin Returns to the Smithsonian

B.The Smithsonian Tightens Security Measures

C.The Smithsonian Charges an Intern with Theft

D.The FBI Cracks a Criminal Case

【題目】閱讀下面材料, 根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)續(xù)寫兩段, 使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。續(xù)寫的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右。

The first thing Eileen Korey noticed when she got into the car that Wednesday afternoon in early May was a small diamond ring in the tray(托盤)between the front seats. It hadn't been there before. Weeks earlier, she had taken the car in to have the airbag replaced. The car belonged to her daughter and son-in-law and she was helping them out. Now she was picking it up. That's when she saw the ring. Korey, 64, of Lake Oswego quickly contacted her daughter and son-in-law to ask if they were missing a diamond ring or if any of their friends had reported losing a ring. They both wrote back, saying they had no idea what she was talking about.

Korey took the ring to the service desk at the garage to ask if any women technicians might have left a ring in the car while they were working on it. The woman behind the counter said only men worked on the cars.

Korey asked if the desk clerk could get information from the guy who had replaced the airbag. Over a two-way radio(對(duì)講機(jī)), Helbt said he'd placed the ring in the tray when it dropped to the car's floor after he opened up the steering column to replace the airbag. He was not sure how it got there.

She knew a friend who was a jeweler and stopped by to have her look at the ring to see if it was real. Her friend said the diamond, set in a white gold hand, was worth$1, 200 and Korey could easily sell it for $500. But she wouldn't sell it. After making sure the ring didn’t belong to anyone in her family—or anyone at the auto shop Korey tracked down the first owner of the car using paperwork she found in the glove box. Her detective work led her to a dealership in Beaverton, and the car's first owners：Daniel and Ashleigh Hannah. The Hannahs had purchased the small ring when they got engaged and were saving money to buy a house.

One Sunday afternoon, they were driving to an event in their car but had to stop at the bank and use the ATM machine.
