It is the CPU that information and instructions are processed. The CPU has a memory unit. This unit s 1 information and instructions. It holds information and instructions until they are needed. In some computers, the memory is a group of magnetic cores (磁芯). In o 2 , it is a magnetic tape, disk, or drum. Information appears on tapes and disks as magnetic spots. In the smallest computers, the memory, or even the whole CPU, may be on a tiny piece of equipment called a chip (芯片). The CPU a 3 has an arithmetic (运算) unit. This is another main part which sorts information and computes—add, subtracts, and so on. An important unit of the CPU is called the “captain” of the computer because it can c 4 the work of the computer. It gets instructions from the memory. Then it tells the memory what information to send to the arithmetic unit. F 5 , it tells the arithmetic unit how to process the information. Input Equipment Input means information that is fed into a computer. B 6 a computer can do any work, information and instructions must go into it. Such information and instruction for a computer is called software. The input equipment takes information and instruction from the outside world. Then it puts it into code (代码) for the computer to use. Special keyboards serve as input equipment on most home computers. Output Equipment Output means information delivered from a computer according to coded instruction. Information can come out of a computer in many f 7 .

Thirty years ago, people had to depend on floppy disks(软磁盘). N 1 , all we have to do is hit the “Save” button on our screens. The files will then be stored in the “cloud.” It seems that we will never run out of space. Isn’t that great? In fact, however, the storage space we now have is not c 2 enough. Every day, 4. 5 billion internet users create a LARGE amount of data. By 2025, the amount of data worldwide will have r 3 175 zettabytes (1 ZB=1012 GB). Clearly, we can’t cover every piece of land on the planet with data centers. So where can we store all of this data? Fortunately, some researchers have been working on new storage technologies. One of these technologies is DNA storage. DNA storage sounds futurist, but in some ways, it’s just the opposite. B 4 computers were invented, nature had been using DNA to store information. In 2012, researchers at Harvard University wrote a book, 11 pictures and a computer program into human DNA．Each gram of DNA can hold 2.2 petabytes (PB．of information (1 ZB =1,048,576 PB．If DNA is kept in the right condition, it can keep the stored information s 5 for a million years. There are still p 6 with using DNA for data storage. For example, it takes lots of time to write into and read from DNA．Scientists are trying to i 7 this technology. We will have to wait to see how their efforts pay off in the future. （22-23九年级上·上海徐汇·期中）Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words. (首字母填空，每空格限填一词，首字母已给) New York City’s police department (NYPD) has decided to return a robot dog. Though the robot worked well, it upset many people. Some thought it was “creepy (吓人的)”. Others w 1 that it would invade (侵犯) their privacy. Spot is a dog-shaped robot built by a tech company. The robot has four legs, so even on rough ground it can move e 2 . Instead of a head, the robot has a camera. It also has a microphone and a speaker, and people can control it from a distance. In December, 2020, the NYPD announced (宣布) that it would begin using a special version of Spot. Their robot was painted blue. It has a special camera to allow it to “see” everything on all sides of it. They called their version “Digidog”. The robot cost the NYPD about $94,000. That may seem like a lot of money, but it’s cheap for a robot. When it announced Digidog, the NYPD said, “This dog is going to save lives, protect people, and protect officers, and that’s our g 3 . ” They soon found out that not everyone was excited about the robot as they were. After the robot was brought to an emergency call in February, a video of it was shared w 4 , and upset a lot of people. Many people were concerned that the police were using an electronic dog for spying (暗中监视). Others felt like it was wrong for the police to spend money on machines. They should focus on p 5 . For many people, the concern wasn’t just about this robot dog, but about what future police robots might look like. For example, they feared that the police might use a robot that could control its o 6 movements, or one that carried weapons. When the dog was used a 7 in late April, 2021, another video was shared on the Internet. Many people were still upset. As a result of the strong public reaction, the NYPD decided to get rid of Digidog, and to return him to the tech company. （23-24九年级上·上海浦东新·期中）Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给） According to UNESCO (联合国教科文组织), there are 740 million people unable to read or write in this world. And 250 million children of primary school age have no basic reading and writing skills. However, reading makes everything p 1 in life: education, work and escaping poverty (贫困). Considering that, the Global School Community aims to bring digital books to all the children of the world and their families. Digital technology makes a real difference. It can reach across the world and is fairly inexpensive. The Global School Community makes e-books available to children all around the world, e 2 through mobile phones, Ipads or computers, saving the cost of making books and transport. Technology also helps improve our communication skills. Through the use of technology, teachers and children around the world can meet online to s 3 lessons and discuss ideas. Remote schooling (远程教学) is one example of the success of communication through the Internet. The first books a child reads can have a great e 4 on that child. The greater it is, the more likely the child is to continue reading and learning throughout his life. E-books, which are a 5 the electronic editions (版本) of printed books, not only provide knowledge and information, but help people grow healthily in mind. They can provide hours of entertainment and can connect schools all over the world. Studies have shown that children make much p 6 after only five months of reading e-books. Bid o Hafrag, a child from Egypt, said, “Reading e-books not only helps me learn to read and write, but gives me much confidence. It also helps me have a b 7 understanding of the world.” （24-25九年级上·上海黄浦·阶段练习）Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通 顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给) Everybody’s Tweeting With the words “just setting up my tweet”, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey launched a site that would change how we communicate forever. Twitter was originally created as a messaging system for a podcasting website, but it takes on a life of its own as people realize it o 1 them the power to connect with millions of people instantly. But what are we using it for, and just how is Twitter changing the way we do things? Perhaps the greatest effect Twitter has had is on breaking news. Before Twitter, news had to get the a 2 of a journalist, who then had to make sure the news was accurate and true before finally broadcasting it on the radio or TV. These days a 3 who happens to be in the right place at the right time with a Twitter account can post news the second it happens. With retweets it can be half around the world in seconds. A perfect example of this was when a US flight made an emergency landing in the Hudson River in New York City. “There’s a plane in the Hudson. I’m on the ferry going to pick up the people. Crazy!” is how eyewitness Janis Krums broke the story to the world with this Tweet and a photo of the unusual event. Young people have always loved to follow their pop idols, and Twitter has made it a whole lot easier. Before the Internet, teenagers used to join the fan clubs of their idols and write letters to their heroes. If they were l 4 two weeks later they’d get a reply written by the club secretary. Today’s teenagers don’t need to wait. By following their idols on Twitter they get all the news the minute it happens. They get to hear what they had for breakfast, what they did the night before, what they’re thinking as they sit waiting for a plane. They get to hear it d 5 from their idols themselves. Twitter allows people who think the same way to get t 6 and do something about the things they care about. They can share information, organize campaigns and put p 7 on governments and big businesses to change. It allows people to stand up to things such as cyber bullying, sexism and racism. Twitter has given the man and woman on the street the power to make a difference. （24-25九年级上·上海静安·阶段练习）     Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一次，首字母已给） Kids are born for science. This idea may surprise you because science seems d 1 to learn. Yet it really holds water and science learning is likely to make a great d 2 in kids’ lives. The most important part of science is a mixture of t 3 and experiment called the scientific method. It’s where you start with an idea, create a way to explain your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically (逻辑地) and carefully. One of the greatest thing we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are a 4 by science because much of science is hands-on. Nothing draws a child to sitting up and taking notice like science experiments. Science opens doors to many s 5 at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language — math! So, science encourage children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. As a result, studying science leads itself easily to studying history. Science is the b 6 thing for much of our life. The science of famring shows how our food is produced; biomedical (生物医学的) science keeps us healthy; e 7 our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breath with the help of science! （2022·上海青浦·一模）Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词， 是其内容通顺，每空格限填一次，首字母已给） Beethoven(贝多芬)is famous for his nine symphonies(交响乐). Before he died, he began a new symphony, but never f 1 it. Computer scientists and musicians have now used artificial intelligence(AI人工智能)to complete his 10th Symphony. Beethoven was born over 250 years ago, yet his music is still played daily around the world. Beethoven wrote many famous pieces of music, especially his nine symphonies. When Beethoven died in 1827, he had some ideas for a 10th  Symphony. But all that he left b 2 were some notes about the piece and a few “sketches”-short bits of written music. In 2019, a special team of  musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their g 3 is to try to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The team didn’t just want to complete the symphony, they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write. That’s where AI came in. To t 4 an AI to help with the symphony, the team turned every piece of music that Beethoven ever wrote into a form the computer could understand. In this way, the AI could look for patterns in the way Beethoven wrote. Other members of the team studied Beethoven’s notes and sketches, and worked to figure out what Beethoven was p 5 to do. One early test told the team they were on the r 6 track. They took a few minutes of music created by the AI based on Beethoven’s sketches, and played it for Beethoven experts, musicians, and reporters. No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts the AI made up. It took the team over two years to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. Recently, it was performed for the first rime ever by the Beethoven Orchestra in Bonn, Germany. So Beethoven now has a 10th Symphony. And t 7 Beethoven didn’t write it all, the team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might have written. （2022·上海嘉定·三模）Fill in the blanks with proper words.

Jacob Stone, Media Director The end of screen All types of technology will use v 1 to control. That is to say, you talk to your device(装置; 设备) and it will follow your instructions. Therefore, screens won’t be important. Wanting the latest smartphones with bigger and better screens will be a thing of the past. I 2 , we will see holograms(全息影像)-pictures in the real world. They will look amazingly real. Nowadays we chat with friends and look at their face on our phone or computer. In 20 years, we’ll be able to see them sitting next to us, looking very much like a real person. Alyssa Tyrone, Creative Manager Connected to everything and everyone I think we will definitely have an electronic device inside our body which will connect us to everything around us. We will be connected to the m 3 , in our homes and places of work, like our cookers and calculators. We’ll be connected to the Internet, too. In this way, we can find information just by thinking about it. And, of course, we will be connected to each other. It will be possible to s 4 our thoughts and feelings with each other directly, even when we’re in different parts of the world. Dev Khan, Digital Product Developer New ways to communicate with friends At the moment, I keep in touch with my friends on social media by liking posts, w 5 reviews and uploading(上传) photos. In 20 years, I think I will disconnect from all these. I’ll put on a pair of s 6 glasses, which will enable me to meet my friends in virtual(虚拟的) worlds. It will be possible to choose the place, from a beach in Spain to a café in London. I’ll bring together people from my real life and my online friends to have social time together. Even though we’ll all be in d 7 places, we’ll chat and share jokes, and the experience will be completely real. （22-23九年级上·上海·期末）Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给）。 Most of us spend our lives surrounded by screens, with which we manage our work, our recreation and our relationships. These devices offer us convenience as well as connection and a lot of information. H 1 , it’s also easy to feel pressured to keep up with every message. More and more people want to take a break from technology. The phrase “digital detox” describes staying away from TV, phones, computers and other forms of technology that c 2 our lives for a period of time. These breaks can occur in a variety of ways. Some experts suggest completely avoiding u 3 screen time for 30 days. Others suggest using an app that will limit the amount of time one can spend on certain websites. A third option is logging out in evenings and/or on w 4 . Others simply turn their phones off. Some even pay high prices to take vacations in places where they can take time out from technology. Why do you want to take a digital detox? Perhaps you find that you are spending longer than you plan on certain apps or that they distract you from more important things. Perhaps social media is depressing because you compare yourself to others or you f 5 missing out on things that other people are enjoying. Technology can also have p 6 effects. Many people experience back or neck pain and the blue light coming from most screens can also affect people’s sleep. On one research trip, a group of people agreed to spend four days w 7 their smartphones. By the time the phone-free period ended, many people in the group had made important decisions about their work or relationships. Others had decided to live a healthier lifestyle. Only when they took a break from technology could they think about really important things. Giving up all screens may not be realistic, but strategic breaks from technology my be good for your body, mind, emotions and relationships. （22-23九年级下·上海闵行·期中）Fill in the blanks with proper words.

The first cell phone had only one use—calling someone. Today’s smart-phones are really minicomputers that allow users to do many things at once. People can send t 1 and emails, listen to music, take pictures and videos, and find information online. Cell phones are perfect for learning in school. For example, students can find information on the Internet, s 2 math problems and share notes. They can use calendars and alarms for reminders about homework, projects, and tests. They can even share ideas on social media. Some schools don’t allow cell phones b 3 they think the phones can distract students from their work. Some teachers worry that students won’t pay attention and will need to be reminded to put down their phones. They also worry that students will spend lunches and recess playing games or using social media. Kids could miss out on quality time spent with friends. Teachers and parents also worry about students using phones to cheat on tests or bully others. Cheating is unfair and does not help students learn. Bullying h 4 classmates. Studies show that younger students are more likely to be bulled if they have cell phones. However, researchers have found that most parents and teachers want students to have phones. It is important for parents and children to be able to keep in touch. Teachers like using phones during lessons because students are more interested and pay c 5 attention. Many teachers feel that the benefits outweigh the problems if students learn to use the cell phones c 6 . Teachers and parents can teach kids to use cell phones in a safe way that helps them learn new things. In class, phones should be s 7 and used only for lessons. Students should also track time spent on their phones and avoid using them too much. Students should be allowed to use cell phones in school. Setting good ground rules can improve learning for everyone. （2023·上海闵行·一模）Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给) Apps to excite your inner artist Staying at home without teachers and classmates, you probably will play with your smart phone to get through the long days.

Technology is the application (应用) of knowledge to production. With the development of science and technology, we can enjoy the convenience of life. We have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work because of m 1 technology. For most of us in America, technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food a 2 to us by means of good farming machinery and animal breeding techniques, and has extended our life span (寿命). So it raises a question. Will human beings continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? The answer depends on technology and our ability to use it w 3 . If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The improvement in technology depends upon research and d 4 , and the latest statistics (统计) show that the United States is continuing to spend billions of dollars every year on such e 5 . So while we are running out of some scarce resources, we may find technological substitutes (代用品) for many of them through our research programmes. Actually, when we need new skills on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. People will work together to design new products to s 6 some difficult problems. When equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be i 7 in response to it. 4 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 9 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit4 Computers 单元话题（电脑技术、科技创新）首字母填空13篇（分层练习） （23-24九年级上·上海徐汇·期中）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给。 Central Processing Unit (CPU) The most important part of any computer is its central processing unit, or CPU.

Twitter was originally created as a messaging system for a podcasting website, but it takes on a life of its own as people realize it o 1 them the power to connect with millions of people instantly. But what are we using it for, and just how is Twitter changing the way we do things? Perhaps the greatest effect Twitter has had is on breaking news. Before Twitter, news had to get the a 2 of a journalist, who then had to make sure the news was accurate and true before finally broadcasting it on the radio or TV. These days a 3 who happens to be in the right place at the right time with a Twitter account can post news the second it happens. With retweets it can be half around the world in seconds. A perfect example of this was when a US flight made an emergency landing in the Hudson River in New York City. “There’s a plane in the Hudson. I’m on the ferry going to pick up the people. Crazy!” is how eyewitness Janis Krums broke the story to the world with this Tweet and a photo of the unusual event. Young people have always loved to follow their pop idols, and Twitter has made it a whole lot easier. Before the Internet, teenagers used to join the fan clubs of their idols and write letters to their heroes. If they were l 4 two weeks later they’d get a reply written by the club secretary. Today’s teenagers don’t need to wait. By following their idols on Twitter they get all the news the minute it happens. They get to hear what they had for breakfast, what they did the night before, what they’re thinking as they sit waiting for a plane. They get to hear it d 5 from their idols themselves. Twitter allows people who think the same way to get t 6 and do something about the things they care about. They can share information, organize campaigns and put p 7 on governments and big businesses to change. It allows people to stand up to things such as cyber bullying, sexism and racism. Twitter has given the man and woman on the street the power to make a difference. 【答案】1．(o)ffers 2．(a)ttention 3．(a)nyone 4．(l)ucky 5．(d)irectly 6．(t)ogether 7． (p)ressure 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了推特的主要作用。 1．句意：推特最初是作为播客网站的消息系统而创建的，但随着人们意识到它使人有能力立即与数百万人建立联系,它也有了自己的生命。offer sb sth表示“提供某人某物”，此处指推特赋予人与其他人联系的能力，又因此处为陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时。故填(o)ffers。 2．句意：在推特出现之前，新闻必须引起一个记者的注意，记者必须确保新闻的准确性和真实性，然后才能在广播或电视上播出。get the attention of sb表示“引起某人的注意”，故填(a)ttention。 3．句意：如今，不论谁碰巧在正确的时间出现在正确的地点，并拥有推特账户，就可以在新闻发生的那一刻发布新闻。本句与上文构成转折关系，表示任何人都可以发布新闻，因此用不定代词anyone做定语从句的先行词，故填(a)nyone。 4．句意：如果他们幸运的话，两周后，他们会收到俱乐部秘书的回复。根据were可知，空处缺少表语形容“they”，根据语意可知收到回信是幸运的。故填(l)ucky。 5．句意：他们可以直接从他们的偶像那里了解到信息。此处缺少副词修饰动词“hear”，表示“直接地”，故填(d)irectly。 6．句意：推特允许志同道合的人聚在一起并做一些他们在乎的事情。get together表示“聚在一起”，故填(t)ogether。 7．句意：他们可以共享信息、组织活动并督促政府和大企业做出改变。空处缺少名词，put pressure on sb表示“督促某人做某事”，故填(p)ressure。 （24-25九年级上·上海静安·阶段练习）     Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一次，首字母已给） Kids are born for science.

Before he died, he began a new symphony, but never f 1 it. Computer scientists and musicians have now used artificial intelligence(AI人工智能)to complete his 10th Symphony. Beethoven was born over 250 years ago, yet his music is still played daily around the world. Beethoven wrote many famous pieces of music, especially his nine symphonies. When Beethoven died in 1827, he had some ideas for a 10th  Symphony. But all that he left b 2 were some notes about the piece and a few “sketches”-short bits of written music. In 2019, a special team of  musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their g 3 is to try to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The team didn’t just want to complete the symphony, they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write. That’s where AI came in. To t 4 an AI to help with the symphony, the team turned every piece of music that Beethoven ever wrote into a form the computer could understand. In this way, the AI could look for patterns in the way Beethoven wrote. Other members of the team studied Beethoven’s notes and sketches, and worked to figure out what Beethoven was p 5 to do. One early test told the team they were on the r 6 track. They took a few minutes of music created by the AI based on Beethoven’s sketches, and played it for Beethoven experts, musicians, and reporters. No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which parts the AI made up. It took the team over two years to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. Recently, it was performed for the first rime ever by the Beethoven Orchestra in Bonn, Germany. So Beethoven now has a 10th Symphony. And t 7 Beethoven didn’t write it all, the team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might have written. 【答案】1．(f)inished 2．(b)ehind 3．(g)oal 4．(t)rain/(t)each 5．(p)lanning/(p)reparing 6．(r)ight 7．(t)hough 【分析】这篇短文主要讲述了著名的音乐家贝多芬在他去世之前，他开始了一部新的交响乐，但从未完成过。计算机科学家和音乐家通过人工智能想完成他的第十交响曲。 1．句意：在他去世之前，他开始了一部新的交响乐，但从未完成。根据“Before he died, he began a new symphony,”及下文but转折连词，可知此处是“但从未完成”，整篇短文是过去时态，finish“完成”，是动词，过去式是finished，故填(f)inished。 2．句意：但他留下的只是一些关于这首曲子的笔记和一些“草图”——些短小的书面音乐。根据“were some notes about the piece and a few “sketches”-short bits of written music.”可知，此处是“但他留下的所有”，短语leave behind“留下”，故填(b)ehind。 3．句意：他们的目标是完成贝多芬的第十交响曲，以庆祝他的250岁生日。根据“to try to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday.”可知，此处是“他们的目标是……”，their是形容词性物主代词，后加名词，goal“目标”，是名词，谓语动词是单数is，主语应为单数，故填(g)oal。 4．句意：为了训练/教授人工智能帮助创作交响乐，该团队将贝多芬创作的每一首音乐都转换成计算机可以理解的形式。to是动词不定式，后加动词原形，根据“an AI to help with the symphony”可知，此处是训练/教授人工智能，短语train/teach sb. to do sth.“训练/教授某人做某事”，train“训练”，是动词；teach“教”，是动词，故填(t)rain/(t)each。 5．句意：团队中的其他成员研究了贝多芬的笔记和草图，并努力找出贝多芬正在计划/准备做什么。根据语境知是过去进行时，其结构是was doing的形式，根据“and worked to figure out”可知，此处是“并努力找出贝多芬正在计划/准备做什么”，plan“计划”，是动词，现在分词是planning；prepare“准备”，是动词，现在分词是preparing，故填(p)lanning/(p)reparing。 6．句意：一个早期测试告诉团队他们在正确的轨道上。根据“They took a few minutes of music created by the AI based on Beethoven’s sketches, and played it for Beethoven experts, musicians, and reporters.”可知，他们在正确的轨道上，track是名词，空前用形容词修饰，right“正确的”，是形容词，故填(r)ight。 7．句意：虽然贝多芬并没有写下所有的作品，但团队确信这首音乐与他可能写的非常相似。根据“the team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might have written.”可知，此处是让步状语从句，though“虽然”，是连词，引导让步状语从句，故填(t)hough。 （2022·上海嘉定·三模）Fill in the blanks with proper words.

These devices offer us convenience as well as connection and a lot of information. H 1 , it’s also easy to feel pressured to keep up with every message. More and more people want to take a break from technology.
