C Metaura Pro claims to be the world's first wearable air-conditioning device capable of constantly blowing cold air to keep the wearer cool.

Metaura Pro is driven by a powerful motor and its cooling modules are made up of 26 lightweight flat objects that wrap around the wearer's neck and help to reduce heat.The motor is linked to a high-speed fan at the back of the device which also drives away some of that warm air around the neck. The device also has a VC plate;whioh has a liquid-cooled,heat-equalizing mechanism,efficiently creating a temperature differential between hot and cold temperatures. "What sets Metaura Pro apart from the competition is that it produces genuinely cold air lower than the surrounding temperature.refreshing you during those dog days of summer,"the Metaura Pro Kickstarter crowdfunding page reads. Metaura Pro not only supplies a cooling function,but also has the capacity for heating as well in winter,it can be used to warm your body to a comfortable temperature.when the surrounding air feels cold. The device intelligently monitors itself.so when you take it off.it recognizes that it is no longer in use and will automatically shut off and switch to standby mode to save power consumption.Metaura Pro wearable collar is powered by a chargeable battery that can provide only 3 hours of cooling on a single charge.The device weighs 435 grams,which is not heavy,but definitely noticeable. 28.How does Metaura Pro manage to keep people cool?

Teachers often complain that students don't read.Most of them find it challenging to try to encourage students to read.Reading is a source of knowledge and language,but it should also be a source of entertainment.36 When did we last give our students the chance to read something just for the pure pleasure of reading it?Reading is so often linked to some kinds of tasks.3 Therefore,we need to show our students the benefits of reading for fun.and offer them the time to do so. Witnessing students reading for fun Recently,I was really surprised by two things that I saw.The first was in a bookshop.On a raining day,I wanted to shelter myself from the rain and browse some books,but it was hard to find a chair to sit.for all the chairs were occupied-by teenagers with their heads buried in books. _38The front three rows were taken by youngsters,absorbed in reading and ignoring everything and everyone around them.In both cases,they read what they had chosen to read since it was of interest to them instead of school textbooks. How to get students reading for pleasure The dilemma we face is how to get our students to behave in this way in the classroom.First and foremost,remove their fear of always being formally questioned during or after reading. Sccondly.give them opportunities to read simply for the pleasure of reading.What they like matters.39 Even five minutes of reading for pleasure every day or every lesson will soon motivate them to read through their own choice.Of course,in reality,it's hard to be achieved. But a start has to be made somewhere. Remember.reading empowers!40 Try and carry out these tips in the classroom and you could find some amazing results. A.Time isn't a problem. B.Reading takes time and patience. C.The second surprise was on the bus D.Students will benefit so much from reading E.Reading in that way becomes of little enjoyment. Here lies part of the answer to the problem of our students not reading. G.Teachers have the mission to ensure this to take place in the classroom. 高2023级英语试卷第7页共10页 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分) 第一节（共15小思：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Tobias,a 35-year-old Belgian musician,has become popular on social media for his excellent grasp of the Shanghai dialect.He has been sharing his everyday experiences,which he41in Shanghai dialect,on video-sharing and lifestyle 42 Douyin and Xiaohongshu,winning thousands of followers and millions of 43 In the videos,he speaks 44 Shanghai dialect,which many non-locals believe is as difficult to learn and45 as a foreign language.He talks about walking on the city's streets,enjoying the food and music,and 46 his daily life in the city.Tobias started shooting and 47 these short videos for his own practice purposes.He didn't expect so many people would be watching them, following him and sending him 48 and encouragement.

Unknowingly,I had read the title.Without opening the book,I borrowed it from the library for the summer. Under the shade of a bush.I started to read about Amos.I read very,very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly,I got the main idea of the story about a dog who,like mine,had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home.That dog was my dog.and I was the little boy in the book.At the end of the story,my mind continued the final scene of reunion.on and on,until my own lost dog and I were,in my mind,running together. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右： 2.请技如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My mother's call retumed me to the real world.
