四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A My favourite Books —Posted by Catherine Chung，a great writer Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang This collection contains several maths stories．The one I recommend is Division By Zero， about Jane Parkinson，a brilliant German mathematician ．To her great despair，she ends up proving that mathematics is inconsistent and is able to prove that any two numbers are equal．A beautiful，thought-provoking（发人深省的）story about belief，understanding，and faith． The Housekeeper and the Professor by Yoko Ogawa It's about a woman who comes to work for a once-great mathematician ．Due to a brain injury ，he has only 80 minutes of short-term memory available to him before he forgets everything．It is filled with beautiful maths，simply and clearly described alongside finely drawn relationships between the characters． Too Much Happiness by Alice Munro Kovalevskaya was a 19th-century mathematician at a time when women were not allowed in most of Europe to attend university．She married a man who promised to take her to Germany to study．She made major contributions to the field and became the first woman in Russia to obtain a doctorate in mathematics． The Ore Miner's Wife by Karl Iagnemma It is about a miner who thinks he's discovered the proof to the problem：construct a square， equal in area to a given circle．His wife，not knowing what has suddenly taken his attention and his time，fears he is being unfaithful．In fact，what he does is a moving exploration of the joys of entering a problem． 21．Which book is about a pioneering Russian woman mathematician？ A．Stories of Your Life and Others． B．The Housekeeper and the Professor． C．Too Much Happiness． D．The Ore Miner's Wife． 22．What do the listed books have in common？ A．They tell stories of woman mathematicians． B．They involve mathematics． C．They explore human relationship． D．They reveal people's inner world． 23．What can we learn from this text？ A．Jane Parkinson fails to show math was inconsistent． B．The mathematician in Yoko Ogawa's book has problem memorizing things． C．In the 19th century，women in Europe didn't have chance to get higher education． D．The miner in Karl Iagnemma's book is unfaithful to his wife． B Tufa grew up in Australia so she couldn't understand why her father insisted on teaching her Oromo，a language spoken in Ethiopia． “Dad never spoke about his life back in Ethiopia and yet he insisted on teaching us this language” Tufa said．“There were so many resources at my fingertips for the other languages I was learning and so many people that speak them．But when Dad was teaching us Oromo，there were no textbooks or learning materials at all．And that struck me as really strange．” But as Tufa got older and began doing her own research，she discovered why speaking about Oromo was so painful for her father．The Oromo are the largest racial group of Ethiopia．But since their land was seized in the 1880s，the people have suffered a lot．The Oromo language was banned ，including from political life and schools ．Oromo texts were destroyed ．Tufa's father，an Oromo，fled to Egypt and，in the late 1970s，he was given asylum（庇护）in Australia． By the time the Oromo ban was lifted，Tufa's father had established a small，private Oromo school in Melbourne to teach the language to the children of asylum seekers．As she helped to teach the students ，Tufa realised the teaching resources were awful ．She decided to create posters and worksheets for her father's students，using her own money to get them printed． Three other Oromo schools that had opened in Victoria by then heard about the materials and all of them wanted copies．Tufa realised that if there was a demand for Oromo child education materials in Australia，there must be other communities around the world where resources were also needed． She launched a crowdfunding campaign so she could print more Oromo learning materials． By the end of 2014，in just six weeks，she had raised almost $ 125，000．Word of her project spread．Her resources have also found their way to Ethiopia，with people sending copies to family members who still live there ．This year ，she plans to launch an online store for her publishing company． 24．What did Tufa feel strange about when learning Oromo？ A．Her father’s life in Ethiopia． B．Her father's way of teaching． C．The lack of learning materials． D．The appearance of other languages． 25．What is the purpose of the third paragraph？ A．To explain a reason． B．To give an example． C．To present an argument． D．To clear a misunderstanding． 26．How did Tufa meet the increasing demand for Oromo learning materials？ A．She created posters and worksheets． B．She turned to his father． C．She dipped into her own pocket． D．She crowdfunded． 27．What is the passage mainly about？ A．Why the Oromo suffered in Ethiopia．B．What schools need in teaching Oromo． C．How a girl helps to keep Oromo alive．D．Where the Oromo language is taught． C Pinocchio may be just a children's story，but Spanish scientists at the University of Granada recently investigated the so-called “Pinocchio effect” and found that our noses don't grow longer when we tell a lie，but actually get a little bit smaller． Dr．Gómez Milán and his team developed a lie detector test that used thermal（热成像的）cameras to tell if people were lying，and found that whenever participants in their research were being untruthful，the temperature of their nose dropped up to 1.2℃，while the temperature of their forehead increased up to 1.5℃．They also found that drop in temperature at nose lev
