Visitors don’t see real animals like bears or elephants. They see more than 50 animals created by hologram technology. The zoo not only provides a new zoo experience, but can also free real animals from their cages. To bring down the cost, Bruce, CEO of Hologram Zoo, built his factory where he worked on hologram technology. A special sleeping pill Sleeping problems are common in our stressful world. Many people use sleeping pills to get enough sleep. But they can be bad for our health. Here’s a “pill” that helps you fall asleep quickly without any side effects. It’s called “The Chill Pill”. It is not a pill but a small tool that you can hold in your hand. It sends out little electric pulses (电子脉冲) that can relax your brain and lower your stress levels. When you hold it, you will feel relaxed and fall asleep quickly. The easiest to repair Last year, around 5.3 billion mobile phones became waste. This created a need for phones that can be fixed easily instead of being thrown away. The newest phone called the G22, is the most advanced phone that can be easily repaired. If the screen breaks or the battery dies, anyone who has a small screwdriver (螺丝刀) and five minutes can put in a new one. This saves users a lot of time waiting for repair and keeps the phone from becoming a waste. Protecting the warming planet with AI’s help Methane Emissions (甲烷排放) are bad for Earth. They are a big reason for climate change. However, neither human eyes nor most satellites in space can see the emissions, so they are difficult to locate. A team of scientists developed a new AI- powered tool. They gave the AI 167, 825 satellite images (图像). It has now “learned” to find methane emission. With AI, scientists can get to know some of the strongest emission areas more quickly. 31. What’s special about Hologram Zoo in Australia? A. Seeing 50 bears or elephants. B. Freeing real animals. C.

It is done by using a hot metal (金属) tool and burning wood or other surfaces (表面). Zhang Donghai, a 63-year-old man from Jinzhong, Shanxi Province, has been practising pyrography for more than 40 years. Zhang began to learn pyrography when he was 20 years old. He learned it all by himself. After 20 years into it, Zhang started to make pyrographs on Xuan paper. He said that it is very difficult to master the skills for making pyrographs on Xuan paper. “I must carefully control the temperature of the electric soldering iron (电烙铁) and the speed of touching down the soldering iron onto the paper so as to avoid leaving holes in the paper.” Zhang said. “Making pyrographs on Xuan paper requires lots of time and great patience.” Many people want to learn pyrography from Zhang, and Zhang is happy to train future inheritors (继承人) of the ancient art. “I prefer to train adults because electric soldering irons are dangerous to children.” Zhang has created innovative (创新的) pyrographs by connecting the art form with the skills of traditional Chinese bird- and- flower paintings. “Pyrography is a kind of valuable traditional cultural skill. I will continue to look for new innovations to make more pyrographs and do my best to pass on the art form to the young,” Zhang said. 37. What can we know from Paragraph 1? A. What pyrography is. B. The start of pyrography. C. Zhang’s art collection, D. Who taught Zhang pyrography. 38. When he was 40, Zhang started to ________. A. learn traditional Chinese painting B. make pyrographs on Xuan paper C. train inheritors of pyrography D. create pyrographs himself 39. Which is Zhang’s innovation in making pyrographs? A. Using colourful paper. B. Making pyrographs on flowers. C. Creating pyrographs of animals. D. Using traditional Chinese painting skills. 40. What is the best title of the passage? A. An artist of pyrography B. A foreign art form C. The return of pyrography art D. The creators of pyrography IV Reading completion (10 points) Decision Making Making decision in life can be a difficult task.___41___In fact, the decisions you make today will not only influence your future, but also other people and the world in which you live.

During my free moments, I take part in various activities. Piano playing and football are my two passions. Football holds a special place in my heart. Whenever the weekend rolls around and time permits, I eagerly head to the park with my friends to do sports. Additionally, I attend piano classes twice weekly to further my skills. The evenings offer plenty of opportunities for physical exercise, which I enjoy. On occasion, I even spend time with my parents, gazing at the stars in the night sky. I believe that I’m using my free time wisely. I’m able to pursue my interests while maintaining a healthy balance between academic pursuits and leisure activities. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
