He found that many elders prefer offline shopping, but carrying heavy things like rice and oil can be physically difficult for them, and many buildings have no elevators. Driven by an aim to make a difference, Zhou set out to find a solution. He spent a year making his robot, carefully programming its every function and using ultrasonic sensors (超声波传感器) for its mobility (移动性) and adaptation (适应性). Unlike other robots, Zhou’s creation has a special feature - deformable (可变形的) wheels. The robot can recognize the uneven ground of older buildings and its wheels can transform from circles into triangles. When traveling on the flat ground, the robot uses circular wheels and achieves turning by varying its speed. When climbing stairs or traveling through tough areas, the robot changes to triangular wheels. Developing a robot is like solving a puzzle with many pieces. Zhou needs to learn robotics, programming and engineering. Not letting his age hold him back, Zhou dove into online courses to learn all about robotics and sought guidance from his teachers to deepen his understanding. To ensure the safety of the elderly users, he needed to carefully design and test the robot to prevent accidents or injuries during operation. Therefore, he did many tests to simulate (模拟) different situations and identify potential risks. After completing his stair- climbing robot, Zhou has reflected on its potential for improvement. He hopes to use slip ring structure (滑环结构) within the wheel. This will help to prevent wire entanglement (缠绕) and knots (结) during rotation (旋转) to ensure the smooth operation of the device. Additionally, Zhou plans to add a box to hold goods for the elderly. 9. What made Zhou want to invent the stair- climbing robot? A. His school homework. B. A science competition. C. His hope to help the old. D. His shopping experience. 10. How is Zhou’s robot different from the traditional ones? A. It has unique sensors. B. It has adaptive wheels. C. It has online systems. D. It has speed changers. 11. What is the meaning of the underlined word “potential” in Paragraph 5? A. Dangerous. B. Possible. C. Unexpected. D. Exact. 12. What improvement does Zhou plan to make to the robot? A. He plans to make the robot smaller and smoother. B. He plans to add a camera for live monitoring C. He plans to use slip ring structure to improve its speed. D. He plans to improve the wheels to avoid wire entanglement. 【答案】9. C 10. B 11. B 12. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了来自上海的一名中学生周一涵开发的爬楼梯机器人。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He found that many elders prefer offline shopping, but carrying heavy things like rice and oil can be physically difficult for them, and many buildings have no elevators.”可知，因为他希望帮助老人。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Unlike other robots, Zhou’s creation has a special feature-deformable (可变形的) wheels.”可知，周的机器人与其他传统的不同是因为它有一个可变形的轮子。故选B。 【11题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Therefore, he did many tests to simulate (模拟) different situations and identify potential risks.”可知，前文提到了他做了许多测试来模拟不同的情况，划线词后又提到了风险，因此是识别“潜在的”风险，即可能的风险，与possible同义。故选B。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He hopes to use slip ring structure (滑环结构) within the wheel. This will help to prevent wire entanglement (缠绕) and knots (结) during rotation (旋转) to ensure the smooth operation of the device. ”可知，他计划改进车轮，以避免钢丝缠绕。故选D。 D Electric vehicles, or EVs, recently have won people’s rising love. Every year, technological improvements, especially lithium-ion batteries (锂电池), make EVs rather than gas cars become more people’s first choice. In a video about cars, Mueller, an expert in studying cars, researches into the history of electric cars and explains why they are the future cars. He writes, “I drive an electric car. I think electric cars are the future, because they are better cars. They have better torque (扭转力), acceleration (加速) and better control.” Best of all, you never have to visit a gas station—this attracts most people. Every morning your car is charged (充满电的) and ready to go. And if you are worried about miles they can cover (行驶), that’s not necessary. Almost all trips can be done in an EV with a proper battery. And fast chargers along the way make it possible to do longer road trips if necessary. You have to rest at some stops anyway, just getting your car charged. What’s more, battery tech makes the battery cheaper, smaller and lighter. Besides, it’s clean technology: A traditional gas car causes more than twice carbon pollution as much as an EV. Even in places that get almost all of their electricity from burning coal, an EV still pollutes less than a traditional gas car. Supposing a 10-year service life, a traditional car will let out 66,000 pounds more carbon pollution than an electric car. Human science technology is always moving forward. However, some challenges still remain about EVs, such as the set of charging stops, the over cost of electricity, battery life and so on. According to the present situation of EVs, scientists and researchers need to have a careful look and study on them further. 13. ________ have become more people’s first choice. A. Gas cars B. Race cars C. EVs D. Traditional cars 14. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Electric cars have better torque, acceleration and control. B. It’s impossible to do longer road trips in electric cars. C. Battery tech makes the battery more expensive but lighter. D. Electric cars can cause zero pollution to the environment. 15. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. EVs. B. A gas station. C. A traditional car. D. Your worry. 16. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. The reasons why EVs are becoming more and more popular. B. EVs produce less carbon pollution than gas cars. C. Human science technology is always moving forward.. D. Almost all trips can be done in an EV with a proper battery. 【答案】13. C 14. A 15. D 16. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了电动汽车正逐渐受到人们的青睐以及越来越受欢迎的原因。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“make EVs rather than gas cars become more people’s first choice”可知，电动汽车是人们的首选。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I think electric cars are the future, because they are better cars. They have better torque (扭转力), acceleration (加速) and better control.”可知，电动汽车具有更好的扭转力、加速和控制。故选A。 【15题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“And if you are worried about miles they can cover (行驶), that’s not necessary.”可知，如果你担心它们能跑多少英里，那么你的担心就没必要了，所以划线部分指代的是“your worry”。故选D。 【16题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Electric vehicles, or EVs, recently have won people’s rising love.”并通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了电动汽车正逐渐受到人们的青睐以及越来越受欢迎的原因。故选A。 阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 Tai chi is an ancient martial art (武术) that forms part of the Chinese culture.

However, only about 9% of them are recycled and most of them end up in landfills, the ocean or elsewhere in nature. When beach-loving Madison Checketts noticed that many plastic bottles polluted the sand during her family trip to California, the 12-year-old American girl realized that this needed to be changed. So for her school science project, she decided to focus on reducing plastic litter. During her research, Madison came across a special method of packing water within an eatable material-a gel membrane (凝胶膜). At that time, the girl got her idea: She would design an eatable water bottle called the Eco-Hero. To carry out her idea, Madison developed the method by doing scientific tests with common food additives. She also learned from previous research on eatable water bottles. Based on the past research, she improved the method and made her bottles bigger and able to last for a longer time. She found that water, lemon juice and other chemicals could be used together to make a gel bag that wouldn’t break. And the bag could hold up to 3/4 cup of water and could be kept in the fridge for three weeks. “My biggest goal with this project is to help the world,” says the young inventor. She hopes her invention can encourage others to take better care of the planet. “It doesn’t necessarily have to be in a big way,” she adds. “People can make a difference to the world, even if it’s just in a small way.” 41. How many plastic bottles are recycled a day across the world? ___________________________________________________________ 42. What did Madison’s school science project focus on? ___________________________________________________________ 43. How did Madison carry out her idea? ___________________________________________________________ 44. As a student what can you do in your daily life to take care of our planet? (Write 30 words or more.) ___________________________________________________________ 【答案】41. About 117 million. 42. It focused on reducing plastic litter. 43. Madison carried out her idea by doing scientific tests with common food additives and learning from previous research on eatable water bottles.

B “Queen Wen” makes history following Li Na’s steps On Jan. 25, 2014, Li Na became the first Asian player to win the Australian Open women’s singles (女单). At that time, 11-year-old Zheng Qinwen was watching in front of a television. The same day 10 years later, Zheng made history by reaching the Australian Open women’s singles final, becoming the second Chinese female (女性) tennis player to advance (晋级) to a Grand Slam (大满贯) singles final. On Jan. 27, 2024, she came runner-up (亚军) in the event. “Li Na is my idol. It’s she who helped shape my dream,” said Zheng. During the 2024 Australian Open, the two spoke in person for the first time, and Zheng credited (归功于) Li with offering some key advice. “She told me, ‘Don’t think too much. Just go for it.’,” Zheng said to Xinhua. These moments all made this decade- long “inheritance (传承)” even more special. Zheng and Li, both from Hubei, shared a similar path (道路) in learning tennis: They had professional and international training from a young age, following international standards and setting clear goals, noted Xinhua. At just 21 years old, Zheng has proved herself to be a serious player since turning pro in 2020. Within just over two years of playing in WTA (Women’s Tennis Association) events, she secured (收获) tour championships and became the second Chinese player to enter the world’s top 10, said Xinhua. Just as Li has lifted Chinese tennis to greater heights, Zheng also hopes to encourage the next generation (一代人). “I want to be an example to children, so that when they see me, they know that I am not only a good player, but also a good person, a young fantastic role model who can inspire them to push ahead,” Zheng told CGTN. 5. Who is Zheng Qinwen? A. She has been a tennis player for10 years. B. She won the championship in the tournament. C. She is the first Chinese player to enter the Australian Open. D. She is one of the top Asian tennis players. 6. What happened when Zheng met Li Na? A. Li gave Zheng some suggestions. B. Li taught Zheng some practical skills. C. They shared their stories of growth. D. Zheng invited Li to be her coach. 7. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. Zheng’s detailed path of growth. B. Zheng’s achievements after turning pro. C. Zheng’s performance in the tournament. D. Zheng’s future professional goal. 8. What can we know from what Zheng said to CGTN? A. She is an influential model among children. B. She will keep moving forward and be a coach. C. She wants to inspire more young people. D. She has encouraged many children to play tennis. C Zhou Yihan, a 16- year- old student from Shanghai Kongjiang Senior High School, has developed a stair- climbing robot to help the elderly when shopping. He found that many elders prefer offline shopping, but carrying heavy things like rice and oil can be physically difficult for them, and many buildings have no elevators. Driven by an aim to make a difference, Zhou set out to find a solution. He spent a year making his robot, carefully programming its every function and using ultrasonic sensors (超声波传感器) for its mobility (移动性) and adaptation (适应性). Unlike other robots, Zhou’s creation has a special feature - deformable (可变形的) wheels. The robot can recognize the uneven ground of older buildings and its wheels can transform from circles into triangles. When traveling on the flat ground, the robot uses circular wheels and achieves turning by varying its speed. When climbing stairs or traveling through tough areas, the robot changes to triangular wheels. Developing a robot is like solving a puzzle with many pieces. Zhou needs to learn robotics, programming and engineering. Not letting his age hold him back, Zhou dove into online courses to learn all about robotics and sought guidance from his teachers to deepen his understanding. To ensure the safety of the elderly users, he needed to carefully design and test the robot to prevent accidents or injuries during operation. Therefore, he did many tests to simulate (模拟) different situations and identify potential risks. After completing his stair- climbing robot, Zhou has reflected on its potential for improvement. He hopes to use slip ring structure (滑环结构) within the wheel. This will help to prevent wire entanglement (缠绕) and knots (结) during rotation (旋转) to ensure the smooth operation of the device. Additionally, Zhou plans to add a box to hold goods for the elderly. 9. What made Zhou want to invent the stair- climbing robot? A. His school homework. B. A science competition. C. His hope to help the old. D. His shopping experience. 10. How is Zhou’s robot different from the traditional ones? A. It has unique sensors. B. It has adaptive wheels. C. It has online systems. D. It has speed changers. 11. What is the meaning of the underlined word “potential” in Paragraph 5? A. Dangerous. B. Possible. C. Unexpected. D. Exact. 12. What improvement does Zhou plan to make to the robot? A. He plans to make the robot smaller and smoother. B. He plans to add a camera for live monitoring C. He plans to use slip ring structure to improve its speed. D. He plans to improve the wheels to avoid wire entanglement. D Electric vehicles, or EVs, recently have won people’s rising love. Every year, technological improvements, especially lithium-ion batteries (锂电池), make EVs rather than gas cars become more people’s first choice. In a video about cars, Mueller, an expert in studying cars, researches into the history of electric cars and explains why they are the future cars. He writes, “I drive an electric car. I think electric cars are the future, because they are better cars. They have better torque (扭转力), acceleration (加速) and better control.” Best of all, you never have to visit a gas station—this attracts most people. Every morning your car is charged (充满电的) and ready to go. And if you are worried about miles they can cover (行驶), that’s not necessary. Almost all trips can be done in an EV with a proper battery. And fast chargers along the way make it possible to do longer road trips if necessary. You have to rest at some stops anyway, just getting your car charged. What’s more, battery tech makes the battery cheaper, smaller and lighter. Besides, it’s clean technology: A traditional gas car causes more than twice carbon pollution as much as an EV. Even in places that get almost all of their electricity from burning coal, an EV still pollutes less than a traditional gas car. Supposing a 10-year service life, a traditional car will let out 66,000 pounds more carbon pollution than an electric car. Human science technology is always moving forward. However, some challenges still remain about EVs, such as the set of charging stops, the over cost of electricity, battery life and so on. According to the present situation of EVs, scientists and researchers need to have a careful look and study on them further. 13 ________ have become more people’s first choice. A. Gas cars B. Race cars C. EVs D. Traditional cars 14. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Electric cars have better torque, acceleration and control. B. It’s impossible to do longer road trips in electric cars. C. Battery tech makes the battery more expensive but lighter. D. Electric cars can cause zero pollution to the environment. 15. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. EVs. B. A gas station. C A traditional car. D. Your worry. 16. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. The reasons why EVs are becoming more and more popular. B. EVs produce less carbon pollution than gas cars. C. Human science technology is always moving forward.. D. Almost all trips can be done in an EV with a proper battery. 阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 Tai chi is an ancient martial art (武术) that forms part of the Chinese culture.

However, only about 9% of them are recycled and most of them end up in landfills, the ocean or elsewhere in nature. When beach-loving Madison Checketts noticed that many plastic bottles polluted the sand during her family trip to California, the 12-year-old American girl realized that this needed to be changed. So for her school science project, she decided to focus on reducing plastic litter. During her research, Madison came across a special method of packing water within an eatable material-a gel membrane (凝胶膜). At that time, the girl got her idea: She would design an eatable water bottle called the Eco-Hero. To carry out her idea, Madison developed the method by doing scientific tests with common food additives. She also learned from previous research on eatable water bottles. Based on the past research, she improved the method and made her bottles bigger and able to last for a longer time. She found that water, lemon juice and other chemicals could be used together to make a gel bag that wouldn’t break. And the bag could hold up to 3/4 cup of water and could be kept in the fridge for three weeks. “My biggest goal with this project is to help the world,” says the young inventor. She hopes her invention can encourage others to take better care of the planet. “It doesn’t necessarily have to be in a big way,” she adds. “People can make a difference to the world, even if it’s just in a small way.” 41. How many plastic bottles are recycled a day across the world? ___________________________________________________________ 42. What did Madison’s school science project focus on? ___________________________________________________________ 43.
