Suddenly, three boys in his neighborhood appeared and 24 him. Todd, the biggest one, pulled his Umbrella Hat off his head.
“What’s THIS?” he asked.
“It’s an Umbrella Hat. You can wear it on rainy days and…” Garth said.
The boys laughed, “Will 25 wear that stupid thing?” Todd threw the hat onto the ground and they ran off.
Garth picked up his Umbrella Hat from the ground in tears. “Maybe Todd was 26 …in reality, who would ever need my invention?” He lowered his head and thought to himself.
Suddenly he 27 and saw a lady looking at him. “I was just leaving my house 28 I saw you and those boys. Are you okay?”
Then she saw the 29 Umbrella Hat and asked, “Er…what’s that?”

A
Jane, a reporter, is collecting information for the local newspaper. She is interested in the following things introduced in a magazine.
Smart Schoolbag
Forget to pack the books you need into your schoolbag in the morning rush?
A schoolboy aged 11 has invented a schoolbag. It tells you which books to pack. A small computer and a scanner (扫描装置) are fixed in the bag. As each book is put into the bag, it is checked by the scanner. If any book is missing, a message will be shown on the computer screen to remind you.
Weather Sweets
Can you eat weather?
A university makes that happen. It uses a 3D printer to create sweets based on the weather information of a certain day.
The shapes of the sweets are affected by wind speed.
The colors of the sweets are decided by temperature. The sweets act as a weather record of the day when they are made.
Sunrise Bed
It’s hard for you to get up in the morning, isn’t it?
To help you get up, a company has created a “tool”——a sun rise bed.
It wakes you up gently as a sunrise does. Lights built into the bed turn on and start to get brighter and brighter. When the lights are fully on, soft music will begin to play. It will be louder and louder until you turn it off. The company explains, “The gentle light tells your body that it is morning, so it stops producing a chemical that helps you sleep.”
36.The smart schoolbag has been invented by ________.
A.a university B.a schoolboy C.a company D.a reporter
37.________ affect (s) the shapes of the weather sweets.

Polly is developed for the blind. It can provide braille (盲文) learners with audio instructions. By listening to Polly, the blind learners can write and correct mistakes with the help of Polly’s electronic (电子的) braille tools—the world’s first.
Esper Hand
The Esper Hand is the first AI-powered robotic prosthetic (假肢) that gets smarter over time. “The most important technology developed in the next 30 years will be electronics inside the human body,” says its inventor Leslie Dickstein.
Bear Hugs
Hugimals provide comfort anytime you need a warm hug. They have a glass-ball filling that gives kids the feeling of being hugged. Hugimals have seen orders from doctors as well as teachers who want to help kids manage big feelings and stay happy.

Planes have changed the world in the last hundred years. But this great change began with two ordinary (普通的) people.
Orville and Wilbur Wright were two brothers. They had a bicycle shop in Ohio, the USA.They were good at making bicycles, but planes were their real interest.
At that time, people knew how to build and fly gliders (滑翔机), but nobody could build a plane with an engine (发动机) and fly it. The plane builders had two main problems: they could not make the wings strong enough, and the planes always crashed (坠毁) when they tried to take off.
The Wright brothers read about these problems in a newspaper, and they decided to look for answers. They made small model planes in the bicycle shop and they built a wind tunnel to test the models. They also built real gliders. Finally, they built a plane with an engine, which they called The Flyer.
On December 17th 1903, Orville and Wilbur pulled The Flyer onto a flat sandy beach. The plane weighed 275 kilograms and had a petrol engine. The day was very cold, and there was a wind of about 30 kilometres per hour. The brothers tossed (投掷) a coin to see who should fly first. Orville won. He climbed onto the plane and started the engine.
The Flyer began to move into the wind. Wilbur ran along beside the plane. And then the plane took off! It flew for only 12 seconds, but someone took a photograph, and the plane flew into the history books.
46.The first plane with an engine began to fly in ________.
A.1803 B.1903 C.1963 D.1993
47.What was one of the glider builders’ main problems before 1903?
A.None of them was good at making and selling bicycles.
B.Their planes could take off and fly for only 30 minutes.
C.They could not afford to buy an engine for their planes.
D.They could not make enough strong wings for their planes.
48.Why did the Wright brothers make models?
A.They made models to test their ideas. B.They hoped to sell them for money.
C.They had nothing to do and did that for fun. D.They weren’t interested in making real planes.
49.How was the weather on the day of The Flyer’s flight?
A.Rainy. B.Warm. C.Windy. D.Hot.
50.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The Wright brother’s owned a model plane shop in the USA before1903.
B.When The Flyer began its first flight in 1903, it weighed 275 kilograms.
C.Orville and Wilbur both wanted to fly the plane first and Wilbur won at last.
D.The plane The Flyer succeeded in taking off and flew for only 12 minutes.

D
Now we can see more and more electric cars running on the street. But you’ll probably be as surprised as I was to find that electric cars aren’t a 21st-century invention. Almost two centuries ago, in 1828, a Hungarian engineer named Nyos Jedlik invented the first electric motor to power a small model car. And he wasn’t the only one with an interest in that sort of technology. In 1834, blacksmith (铁匠) Thomas Davenport created a similar device (设备) that could be driven at short distances using an electric track. It was just like streetcars later on! And over in the Netherlands, university professor Sibrandus Stratingh built a tiny electric car powered with non-rechargeable (不可充电的) batteries. But these primary batteries could be used only once, so people needed too many batteries to run the motor over long distances at such low speeds. It wasn’t until 1859 when French physicist Gaston Plante invented the lead acid battery that changed the electric engine game for good. Many countries began producing electric three-wheeled cars until the US made a huge breakthrough (突破). In 1891, they created the first electric vehicle. It was a 6-passenger wagon that could go up to 14 miles per hour. After that the electric car market grew stronger. In the late 1890s, electric-powered taxis filled the streets of London. By the early 1900s, almost one-third of cars in the US were electric-powered. But that wasn’t going to last long. What happened to the electric cars by the late 1920s? Let’s go on tomorrow.
51.Who invented the first electric motor?
A.Gaston Plante. B.Sibrandus Stratingh.
C.Thomas Davenport. D.Nyos Jedlik.
52.Put the following events in the correct order ________.
①a small model car powered by the first electric motor
②electric-powered taxis in London
③6-passenger electric wagon
④electric-powered cars in US
A.①②③④ B.①③②④
C.①④③② D.①④②③
53.Why wasn’t the electric car put into use until 1859?
A.Because nobody was interested in it.
B.Because they were model cars.
C.Because the batteries were non-rechargeable.
D.Because there were no electric tracks.
54.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The electric motor was invented in the 19th century.
B.The high speed of the electric car could reach 15 miles.
C.You could take an electric taxi in London in 1850.
D.There were only electric cars in US in the early 1960s.
55.Where can you probably see the passage?
A.A science newspaper. B.A travel guidebook.
C.A health website. D.An art magazine.
三、阅读还原(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
请先阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中,使短文意思通顺、结构完整,并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。一空一句。
Kites were once called zhiyuan in North China and yaozi in South China. The name Fengzheng came into use during the Five Dynasties. 56 He once tied a whistle (哨子) made of bamboo to the upper part of his kite so that a zheng sound was made when he was flying the kite. The word for wind is feng,so fengzheng came into use.
How was the kite invented? 57 But it is widely believed that the earliest kite in the world was made by Mo Di, a famous Chinese philosopher (哲学家) who lived about 2,400 years ago. He spent three years making a bird with wood and successfully flew it. The bird was later regarded as the first kite in the world. 58 Lu Ban improved on kite making. He made a kite out of bamboo and it flew into the air for as long as three days.
Kite-flying became a kind of recreation (娱乐活动) probably in the Tang Dynasty. 59 Later, the paper-made kite was invented. Paper-made kites were cheaper to make and then spread quickly among the common people.
60 The well-known British scientist, Dr. Needham, once described kites as an important invention that spread to Europe from China in his book. A foreign kite specialist (专家) said, “The invention of the kite encouraged humans’ dream to fly and led to the invention of the plane.”
A.Kite-flying was believed to be good for our health.
B.As time went on, kites flew to different countries in the world.
C.Later, he passed on his kite making skills to his student Lu Ban.
D.The kite was also made of paper after the paper was invented by Cai Lun.
E.There are so many different opinions that it is difficult to decide which one is right.
F.At that time, only the royal family (王室) and people of the highest class flew kites.
G.According to a history book, Li Ye, who lived in the Five Dynasties, used to make and fly kites.
四、短文填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,在空格处填入一个适当的词,或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。
The kites in Weifang never disappoint. Every year, the Weifang International Kite Festival, which is known 61 all kinds of well-designed kites, attracts (吸引) visitors from all over the world.
A kite is one of 62 oldest toys. Kites come in many sizes, 63 (shape) and colors. They are 64 (love) by the young and the old. But do you know that kites can be both toys 65 tools? Kites were named after the kite birds. The kite bird has wide wings and 66 (easy) flies high in the sky. No one knows who made the 67 (one) kite. But one famous Chinese story about a kite was written over 2,000 years ago. The story is about 68 (use) a kite to break a fort (堡垒). A man couldn’t find the way to get inside the fort. Then he tied himself to a huge kite. He 69 (fly) over the wall of the fort and scared the soldiers!
As 70 (color) kites keep flying in the sky, the Weifang International Kite Festival is not only a good time to share kite-making skills, but also a way to develop friendship between people from different countries.
5、 阅读短文回答问题(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
Have you ever heard about the electric chopsticks? They were invented by the Japanese scientists. The electric chopsticks can help people take in less salt by adding the salty taste to food, so people can still enjoy delicious food.
How can the chopsticks work? Wiring (电线) connects the chopsticks to a small computer on your hand. Weak electricity carries sodium ions (钠离子) from food through the chopsticks to your mouth. They’ll create a sense of saltiness in your mouth. As a result, the salty taste increases by 1.5 times.
The traditional diet in Japan is salty. A Japanese adult usually eats about 10 grams of salt each day. That is twice the amount (数量) one should take in according to the World Health Organization. More salt intake will lead to high blood pressure (血压), strokes (中风) and some other diseases.
“To avoid suffering from (遭受) these diseases, we need to eat less salt,” the scientists say. “If Japanese people try to reduce salt intake in the usual ways, they will need to cut many of their favorite foods from their diet, or they will have to eat tasteless food.”
The scientists are making their chopsticks better and hope to have them ready to sell as early as next year.
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
71.Who invented the electric chopsticks?
72.How do the electric chopsticks help people take in less salt?
73.According to the World Health Organization, how much salt should a person take in every day?
74.To avoid some diseases like high blood pressure and strokes, what should we do?
75.Can people buy the electric chopsticks now?

【答案】16.C 17.C 18.B 19.B 20.C
【原文】
When we think of paper, we think of newspapers and books. But there are many other uses. Only half of the world’s paper is used for books and newspapers.
Paper is very good for keeping you warm. In Finland, the farmers wear paper boots in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.
Each year, more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper cups and plates for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables and even beds can be made of paper. You can wear paper hats, paper dresses and paper raincoats. When you have used them once, you throw them away.
The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These are not small houses for children to play in, but real, big ones for people to live in. You can buy a house with three rooms for about 500 dollars. You can put it up by yourself in a few hours, use it for about five years.

It was a rainy, windy October afternoon. Garth stood outside his house with a wide smile. This was 21 weather for testing his new invention—Umbrella Hat. He could hardly wait to see whether it could keep the rain off. He 22 placed the hat on his head and started walking purposefully along the 23 . It worked!
Suddenly, three boys in his neighborhood appeared and 24 him. Todd, the biggest one, pulled his Umbrella Hat off his head.
“What’s THIS?” he asked.
“It’s an Umbrella Hat. You can wear it on rainy days and…” Garth said.
The boys laughed, “Will 25 wear that stupid thing?” Todd threw the hat onto the ground and they ran off.
Garth picked up his Umbrella Hat from the ground in tears. “Maybe Todd was 26 …in reality, who would ever need my invention?” He lowered his head and thought to himself.
Suddenly he 27 and saw a lady looking at him. “I was just leaving my house 28 I saw you and those boys. Are you okay?”
Then she saw the 29 Umbrella Hat and asked, “Er…what’s that?”
“It’s my Umbrella Hat. I thought of it and made it myself…” answered Garth.
“What a creative 30 you have! Don’t ever let stupid boys put you down! Keep inventing and one day you will 31 something really great!” said the lady.
“And you have given me a wonderful 32 ,” she continued, “I have a gadget (小器具) shop—Gadgets4U—and I’d like to hold a competition to find the best young gadget inventor in our town. I will display (展示) three best inventions in my shop. I’m sure you will have a(n) 33 of winning a prize.”
Garth was very 34 . Gadgets4U was one of his favorite places and the thought of having his invention displayed in that wonderful place was too exciting for words. He suddenly felt 35 better and could already feel lots of new ideas coming out, waiting to spring into life!

Smart Schoolbag
Forget to pack the books you need into your schoolbag in the morning rush?
A schoolboy aged 11 has invented a schoolbag. It tells you which books to pack. A small computer and a scanner (扫描装置) are fixed in the bag. As each book is put into the bag, it is checked by the scanner. If any book is missing, a message will be shown on the computer screen to remind you.
Weather Sweets
Can you eat weather?
A university makes that happen. It uses a 3D printer to create sweets based on the weather information of a certain day.
The shapes of the sweets are affected by wind speed.
The colors of the sweets are decided by temperature. The sweets act as a weather record of the day when they are made.
Sunrise Bed
It’s hard for you to get up in the morning, isn’t it?
To help you get up, a company has created a “tool”——a sun rise bed.
It wakes you up gently as a sunrise does. Lights built into the bed turn on and start to get brighter and brighter. When the lights are fully on, soft music will begin to play. It will be louder and louder until you turn it off. The company explains, “The gentle light tells your body that it is morning, so it stops producing a chemical that helps you sleep.”

Planes have changed the world in the last hundred years. But this great change began with two ordinary (普通的) people.
Orville and Wilbur Wright were two brothers. They had a bicycle shop in Ohio, the USA.They were good at making bicycles, but planes were their real interest.
At that time, people knew how to build and fly gliders (滑翔机), but nobody could build a plane with an engine (发动机) and fly it. The plane builders had two main problems: they could not make the wings strong enough, and the planes always crashed (坠毁) when they tried to take off.
The Wright brothers read about these problems in a newspaper, and they decided to look for answers. They made small model planes in the bicycle shop and they built a wind tunnel to test the models. They also built real gliders. Finally, they built a plane with an engine, which they called The Flyer.
On December 17th 1903, Orville and Wilbur pulled The Flyer onto a flat sandy beach. The plane weighed 275 kilograms and had a petrol engine. The day was very cold, and there was a wind of about 30 kilometres per hour. The brothers tossed (投掷) a coin to see who should fly first. Orville won. He climbed onto the plane and started the engine.
The Flyer began to move into the wind. Wilbur ran along beside the plane. And then the plane took off! It flew for only 12 seconds, but someone took a photograph, and the plane flew into the history books.
46.The first plane with an engine began to fly in ________.
A.1803 B.1903 C.1963 D.1993
47.What was one of the glider builders’ main problems before 1903?
A.None of them was good at making and selling bicycles.
B.Their planes could take off and fly for only 30 minutes.
C.They could not afford to buy an engine for their planes.
D.They could not make enough strong wings for their planes.
48.Why did the Wright brothers make models?
A.They made models to test their ideas. B.They hoped to sell them for money.
C.They had nothing to do and did that for fun. D.They weren’t interested in making real planes.
49.How was the weather on the day of The Flyer’s flight?
A.Rainy. B.Warm. C.Windy. D.Hot.
50.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The Wright brother’s owned a model plane shop in the USA before1903.
B.When The Flyer began its first flight in 1903, it weighed 275 kilograms.
C.Orville and Wilbur both wanted to fly the plane first and Wilbur won at last.
D.The plane The Flyer succeeded in taking off and flew for only 12 minutes.
【答案】46.B 47.D 48.A 49.C 50.B
【导语】本文主要介绍了怀特兄弟发明有发动机的飞机的过程。
46.细节理解题。根据“On December 17th 1903, Orville and Wilbur pulled The Flyer onto a flat sandy beach.…And then the plane took off! It flew for only 12 seconds, but someone took a photograph, and the plane flew into the history books.”可知,第一架有发动机的飞机在1903年12月17日进行首次试飞。故选B。
47.细节理解题。根据“The plane builders had two main problems: they could not make the wings strong enough, and the planes always crashed (坠毁) when they tried to take off.”可知,当时的飞机机翼不坚固,飞机起飞时总会坠毁。可见主要问题是无法为飞机制造足够坚固的机翼。故选D。
48.细节理解题。根据“They made small model planes in the bicycle shop and they built a wind tunnel to test the models.”可知,他们制作模型是为了检验他们的想法。故选A。
49.细节理解题。根据“The day was very cold, and there was a wind of about 30 kilometres per hour.”可知,试飞当日天气非常寒冷,风速约为每小时30公里。故选C。
50.细节理解题。根据“On December 17th 1903, Orville and Wilbur pulled The Flyer onto a flat sandy beach. The plane weighed 275 kilograms and had a petrol engine.”可知,1903年“飞行者”号首次试飞时,重量是275公斤。故选B。

Now we can see more and more electric cars running on the street. But you’ll probably be as surprised as I was to find that electric cars aren’t a 21st-century invention. Almost two centuries ago, in 1828, a Hungarian engineer named Nyos Jedlik invented the first electric motor to power a small model car. And he wasn’t the only one with an interest in that sort of technology. In 1834, blacksmith (铁匠) Thomas Davenport created a similar device (设备) that could be driven at short distances using an electric track. It was just like streetcars later on! And over in the Netherlands, university professor Sibrandus Stratingh built a tiny electric car powered with non-rechargeable (不可充电的) batteries. But these primary batteries could be used only once, so people needed too many batteries to run the motor over long distances at such low speeds. It wasn’t until 1859 when French physicist Gaston Plante invented the lead acid battery that changed the electric engine game for good. Many countries began producing electric three-wheeled cars until the US made a huge breakthrough (突破). In 1891, they created the first electric vehicle. It was a 6-passenger wagon that could go up to 14 miles per hour. After that the electric car market grew stronger. In the late 1890s, electric-powered taxis filled the streets of London. By the early 1900s, almost one-third of cars in the US were electric-powered. But that wasn’t going to last long. What happened to the electric cars by the late 1920s? Let’s go on tomorrow.
51.Who invented the first electric motor?
A.Gaston Plante. B.Sibrandus Stratingh.
C.Thomas Davenport. D.Nyos Jedlik.
52.Put the following events in the correct order ________.
①a small model car powered by the first electric motor
②electric-powered taxis in London
③6-passenger electric wagon
④electric-powered cars in US
A.①②③④ B.①③②④
C.①④③② D.①④②③
53.Why wasn’t the electric car put into use until 1859?
A.Because nobody was interested in it.
B.Because they were model cars.
C.Because the batteries were non-rechargeable.
D.Because there were no electric tracks.
54.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The electric motor was invented in the 19th century.
B.The high speed of the electric car could reach 15 miles.
C.You could take an electric taxi in London in 1850.
D.There were only electric cars in US in the early 1960s.
55.Where can you probably see the passage?
A.A science newspaper. B.A travel guidebook.
C.A health website. D.An art magazine.

三、阅读还原(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
请先阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中,使短文意思通顺、结构完整,并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。一空一句。
Kites were once called zhiyuan in North China and yaozi in South China. The name Fengzheng came into use during the Five Dynasties. 56 He once tied a whistle (哨子) made of bamboo to the upper part of his kite so that a zheng sound was made when he was flying the kite. The word for wind is feng,so fengzheng came into use.
How was the kite invented? 57 But it is widely believed that the earliest kite in the world was made by Mo Di, a famous Chinese philosopher (哲学家) who lived about 2,400 years ago. He spent three years making a bird with wood and successfully flew it. The bird was later regarded as the first kite in the world. 58 Lu Ban improved on kite making. He made a kite out of bamboo and it flew into the air for as long as three days.
Kite-flying became a kind of recreation (娱乐活动) probably in the Tang Dynasty. 59 Later, the paper-made kite was invented. Paper-made kites were cheaper to make and then spread quickly among the common people.
60 The well-known British scientist, Dr. Needham, once described kites as an important invention that spread to Europe from China in his book. A foreign kite specialist (专家) said, “The invention of the kite encouraged humans’ dream to fly and led to the invention of the plane.”
A.Kite-flying was believed to be good for our health.
B.As time went on, kites flew to different countries in the world.
C.Later, he passed on his kite making skills to his student Lu Ban.
D.The kite was also made of paper after the paper was invented by Cai Lun.
E.There are so many different opinions that it is difficult to decide which one is right.
F.At that time, only the royal family (王室) and people of the highest class flew kites.
G.According to a history book, Li Ye, who lived in the Five Dynasties, used to make and fly kites.
【答案】56.G 57.E 58.C 59.F 60.B
【导语】本文介绍了风筝在中国的发展,以及在世界上的传播。
56.根据“The name Fengzheng came into use during the Five Dynasties.”和后句“He once tied a whistle (哨子) made of bamboo to the upper part of his kite so that a zheng sound was made when he was flying the kite.”可知,此处是介绍了五代时期和制作风筝有关的人。G项“根据一本历史书,生活在五代时期的李烨曾经制作和放风筝”相符合,故选G。
57.根据“But it is widely believed that the earliest kite in the world was made by Mo Di, a famous Chinese philosopher (哲学家) who lived about 2,400 years ago.”可知,此处是说对于风筝的起源有许多的说法。E项“有这么多不同的意见,很难决定哪一个是正确的”相符合,故选E。
58.根据下文“Lu Ban improved on kite making.”可知,此处是说鲁班继承了前人的风筝制作技能,C项“后来,他把这一风筝制作技巧传给了他的学生鲁班”符合语境,故选C。
59.根据下文“Later, the paper-made kite was invented. Paper-made kites were cheaper to make and then spread quickly among the common people.”可知,刚一开始风筝没有传播开来,F项“在那个时候,只有皇室和最高级的人放风筝”符合语境,故选F。
60.根据下文提到“The well-known British scientist, Dr. Needham, once described kites as an important invention that spread to Europe from China in his book.”可知,此句是在讲述风筝在世界传播的情况。B项“随着时间的推移,风筝飞到了世界上不同的国家”符合语境,故选B。

5、 阅读短文回答问题(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
Have you ever heard about the electric chopsticks? They were invented by the Japanese scientists. The electric chopsticks can help people take in less salt by adding the salty taste to food, so people can still enjoy delicious food.
How can the chopsticks work? Wiring (电线) connects the chopsticks to a small computer on your hand. Weak electricity carries sodium ions (钠离子) from food through the chopsticks to your mouth. They’ll create a sense of saltiness in your mouth. As a result, the salty taste increases by 1.5 times.
The traditional diet in Japan is salty. A Japanese adult usually eats about 10 grams of salt each day. That is twice the amount (数量) one should take in according to the World Health Organization. More salt intake will lead to high blood pressure (血压), strokes (中风) and some other diseases.
“To avoid suffering from (遭受) these diseases, we need to eat less salt,” the scientists say. “If Japanese people try to reduce salt intake in the usual ways, they will need to cut many of their favorite foods from their diet, or they will have to eat tasteless food.”
The scientists are making their chopsticks better and hope to have them ready to sell as early as next year.
