Seaborg, a Nobel prize-winning chemist, predicted in 1951 that by 2020, we’d keep apes that could drive cars and perform other tasks for us. #3: Nuclear (核) vacuums (真空吸尘器) In 1955, Alex Lewyt, the president of a vacuum cleaner company, predicted that within 10 years nuclear power would run vacuums. What did he think people would do with the nuclear waste? #4: Meals in a pill In 1894, the chemist Marcellin Berthelot predicted that people of the future would get all the nutrition (营养) they needed in pill form. “Wheat fields are to disappear from the face of the Earth, because flour will no longer be produced from growing wheat, but made, ” he said.

He also thought the glasses might display a complete virtual reality that we could touch and interact with. Virtual reality (VR) technology isn’t nearly this good yet. To be fair, Kurzweil correctly predicted that AI would beat humans at chess and that we’d switch to digital books and music and movies. So maybe realistic VR is just around the corner? 24.

A 26. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了五种曾经的预言内容及其现状，包括：火箭邮件、猿猴工人、核能真空吸尘器、药丸式膳食、虚拟现实。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In 1894, the chemist Marcellin Berthelot predicted that people of the future would get all the nutrition (营养) they needed in pill form”可知，Marcellin Berthelot曾预言，未来的食物将会以药丸的形式被制造出来。故选D。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Alex Lewyt, the president of a vacuum cleaner company, predicted that within 10 years nuclear power would run vacuums. What did he think people would do with the nuclear waste?”可知，Alex Lewyt曾经语言：在 10 年内，真空吸尘器将由核能驱动，但人们无法处理核废料，所以此预言是不切实际的。故选A。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了五种未来技术的预言。故选B。 Have you ever seen a poster for a product in a place you didn’t expect? Or have you ever been surprised by a group of strangers who suddenly started singing and dancing together to advertise a service? People in advertising call this “guerrilla marketing”. It’s a term that describes low-cost and unusual marketing strategies (策略) that catch people off guard. Guerrilla marketing is different from traditional marketing because it doesn’t use typical marketing platforms like print, TV, or online advertising. It’s also a lot cheaper. It was first designed for small businesses with less money, but these days many large companies are trying this clever and affordable strategy. Coca-Cola is one such company. It once placed a special vending machine on a college campus. If students bought a bottle of Coca-Cola from the machine, they got two extra bottles free of charge to give to their friends. Sometimes, a hand came out of the machine and gave customers flowers instead of an extra drink. People loved it! Coca-Cola filmed customers enjoying this special “happiness machine” and posted the video online. Many people watched the video and shared it with their friends, and the company enjoyed free publicity. IKEA—one of the world’s largest furniture companies—also gave guerrilla marketing a try. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of its most popular bookcase, IKEA decided to try something different. It teamed up with a charity called the Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation to set up the world’s largest outdoor library. The location? On a beach! IKEA displayed its bookcases on Sydney’s Bondi Beach and filled them with over 6, 000 books. People got to see IKEA’s bookcase in use and find something interesting to read at the same time. 27. What is the writer’s purpose of the first paragraph? A. To describe how successful guerrilla marketing is. B. To show why guerrilla marketing is successful. C. To show when guerrilla marketing began. D. To explain what guerrilla marketing is. 28. The underlined phrase “off guard” means ________. A. not spending much money B. doing something unusual C. not expecting a surprise D. waiting for something new 29. IKEA probably chose Bondi Beach to show its products because ________. A. it was a future location for IKEA’s store B. it was an unusual place to see books C. it was near a public library D. it was near an IKEA store 30. Why does the writer mention Coca-Cola and IKEA? A. They are both well-known companies around the world. B. They both use traditional marketing strategies. C. They both spend a lot in advertising their products. D. They are both successful examples of guerrilla marketing. 【答案】27. D 28. C 29. B 30. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了“游击营销”的概念，这是一种低成本且出奇制胜的非传统营销策略。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据“People in advertising call this ‘guerrilla marketing’. It’s a term that describes low-cost and unusual marketing strategies (策略) that catch people off guard.”可知，作者写第一段的目的是解释什么是游击式营销。故选D。 【28题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“People in advertising call this ‘guerrilla marketing’. It’s a term that describes low-cost and unusual marketing strategies (策略) that catch people off guard.”可知，这里提到了不同寻常营销策略，结合语境带下划线的短语“off guard”的意为毫无防备，文中意指“没想到会有惊喜”，故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据“IKEA displayed its bookcases on Sydney’s Bondi Beach and filled them with over 6, 000 books. People got to see IKEA’s bookcase in use and find something interesting to read at the same time.”可知，宜家之所以选择邦迪海滩来展示其产品，可能是因为那是一个不寻常的看书的地方。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Coca-Cola is one such company…they got two extra bottles free of charge to give to their friends.”以及“IKEA—one of the world’s largest furniture companies—also gave guerrilla marketing a try. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of its most popular bookcase, IKEA decided to try something different.”可知，作者提到可口可乐和宜家都是“游击营销”的成功范例。故选D。 Molly Burke was not born blind. She started losing her sight when she was four years old. Doctors said that she had a rare eye disease that would gradually take away her vision. In first grade she learned to read Braille, although she could still see. Life was pretty normal for the next few years. However, in seventh grade, things got worse. She couldn’t even see the blackboard. “I just started to cry, ” remembers Molly. As she began to lose her vision, she started using a stick to help her walk. By age 14, Molly was completely blind. Her classmates soon stopped inviting her to do things. A group of girls who were once her friends started bullying her. They even said that she was making up her blindness to get attention. Eventually, Molly became depressed (沮丧的). Her high school years were not easy. After she finished high school, Molly thought about what she wanted to do before college. Her brother was working in a children’s home in Africa, and she wanted to do something that would help others, too. Then she found out about Me to We, an organization that runs international volunteer trips. She joined the organization on a youth trip to Kenya to help build a school. While there, she spoke at a local girls’ school. Molly now knew what she wanted to do next—to help inspire (激励) people by being a speaker at Me to We. Molly began speaking at schools all over the United States and Canada. Her advice? Be strong! During a speech in Toronto, she spoke to about 20, 000 people. After her speech, the crowd stood up and clapped. “Molly has a real ability to inspire people and to help others, ” her father says. In 2014, Molly started her own channel on social media, uploading things like makeup video blogs, or vlogs. As of 2019, she has close to two million followers, some of whom don’t even know she’s blind. She tries to be a role model for young people, but is realistic about what she can and can’t do. She even makes fun of the challenges she faces as a blind person—like sharing a video that she once bit into a lemon, thinking it was a potato. In 2018, Molly moved out of her parents’ home and into her own apartment in Los Angeles, where she still lives today. “How can you hold somebody like that back? ” says her mother. “She’s unstoppable. ” 31.

To show that Molly is brave enough to face any challenge. D. To show that Molly has a sense of humor about her daily challenges. 35. What does Molly’s mother think of her moving out? A. She totally supports Molly’s decision. B. She doesn’t support Molly but she can do nothing. C. She supports Molly, but feels that she is making a mistake. D. She doesn’t support Molly, but knows there is no stopping Molly. 【答案】31. A 32. B 33. B 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了Molly Burke从失明到成为激励他人演讲者的过程。 她通过积极乐观态度和不懈的努力，成为了一个鼓舞人心的榜样。 【31题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了Molly Burke的故事，她从一个双目失明者变成了一个励志的演讲者，是一个鼓舞人心的榜样，因此选项A “一位鼓舞人心的榜样” 符合最佳标题。故选A。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“ Her classmates soon stopped inviting her to do things. A group of girls who were once her friends started bullying her. They even said that she was making up her blindness to get attention. Eventually, Molly became depressed (沮丧的). Her high school years were not easy.”可知，高中时期，同学们很快就不再邀请她一起做事情了，一群曾经是朋友的女孩开始欺负她，她们甚至说她是在假装失明以博取关注，所以高中时期是最艰难的。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“While there, she spoke at a local girls’ school. Molly now knew what she wanted to do next—to help inspire (激励) people by being a speaker at Me to We.”可知，Molly在肯尼亚的一所女子学校演讲，她发现了自己有激励他人的能力，因此Molly决定成为Me to We的演讲者。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“She even makes fun of the challenges she faces as a blind person—like sharing a video that she once bit into a lemon, thinking it was a potato.”可知，这个例子是为了展示Molly面对生活中困难时的幽默态度，表明她能够以积极乐观的方式面对挑战。故选D。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据“How can you hold somebody like that back?”和“She’s unstoppable”可知，母亲不支持Molly搬出去住，但不能阻止女儿，不支持女儿的想法，但表示尊重。故选D。 四、填空 请根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词, 使句子意思完整正确。 36.

If we can’t remember how to do something, we can’t survive. If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember — from where we left our car keys to how we walk. Maybe it’s not surprising that sometimes we forget things. Scientists believe there are two levels of memory. One is short-term memory, which stays in your brain for only 15-30 seconds, for example, when you hear a song but can’t remember the words afterwards. The other level is long-term memory, which can be stored for days, months or even years. There are many uses for memory. Motor-skill memory helps you remember how to ride a bike or other activities, which can be strong can be short or long term. Emotional memory makes you think of how you felt about something and can be strong and powerful. They are long term. Memories can tell you the story of yourself. Information, such as which school you go to and who your friends are, is stored inside your brain, ready for when you need it. It’s much easier to remember all those facts, or formulas or whatever it is you’re learning if you have a good memory. Memories can also help you manage feelings. Heidi, 12, told The Week Junior, “If I miss seeing my granny and grandad, I remember staying with them in Devon. It makes me feel happy.” Our memory is amazing, but why do we still forget things? It’s possible we don’t always store information in our memory effectively. When we do store information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later. If you don’t have these connections, then it can be easier to forget. It is also possible that memories decay over time. As they have not been revisited, their biological “trace” becomes weak. However, forgetting is not always a bad thing!It would waste cognitive resources if we remembered every detail of the world around us. That’s something worth remembering! Introduction ____51____ things is an important function of our brain and it’s no surprise that sometimes we are forgetful.

(Try to give at least one reason to support your opinion. ) ____58____ 【答案】51. Remembering 52. divided 53. reminds 54. feelings 55. causes 56. possibility 57. connect 58. Forgetting things can also help us manage feelings. For example, When we meet unhappy things, learning to forget them is a good way. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了记忆是我们大脑的一项重要功能，然而忘记并不总是一件坏事。具体从记忆的类型和重要性、健忘的原因等做了分析，来加以说明。 【51题详解】 根据文章第一段“How is your memory? If we can’t remember how to do something, we can’t survive. If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember — from where we left our car keys to how we walk. Maybe it’s not surprising that sometimes we forget things.”可知，前文介绍了记忆的重要性，即记忆是我们大脑的一项重要功能；后文介绍了有时我们会忘记一些事情，这并不奇怪两个方面，remember things记住事情，在句子中作主语，remember要用动名词形式，故填Remembering。 【52题详解】 根据文章第二段开头“Scientists believe there are two levels of memory. ”可知记忆被分为两个层级，be divided into意为“被分成”，故填divided。 【53题详解】 根据文章第三段中“Emotional memory makes you think of how you felt about something and can be strong and powerful.”可知情感记忆会让你想起对某事的感受，remind sb of sth意为“让某人想起某事”，故填reminds。 【54题详解】 根据文章第四段中“Memories can also help you manage feelings. ”可知记忆能帮助我们管理情绪，故填feelings。 【55题详解】 根据文章第五段开头“Our memory is amazing, but why do we still forget things?”可知第五段主要介绍了健忘的原因，cause意为“起因”，与空格后的of搭配，结合后文，这里应用复数，故填causes。 【56题详解】 根据文章第五段中“It’s possible we don’t always store information in our memory effectively.”可知，有一种可能性是信息没有以有效的方式存储在我们的记忆中。空前one是基数词，修饰单数可数名词。possible可能的，是形容词，名词是possibility，故填possibility。 【57题详解】 根据文章第五段中“When we do store information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later. If you don’t have these connections, then it can be easier to forget. ”可知我们无法将信息与其他事物联系起来，connect…with意为“把……和……联系起来”，情态动词can后跟动词原形，故填connect。 【58题详解】 根据文章最后一段“However, forgetting is not always a bad thing!It would waste cognitive resources if we remembered every detail of the world around us. That’s something worth remembering!”可知，文章主要介绍了遗忘并不总是一件坏事，因此忘记事情也能帮助我们管理情绪。在我们遇到不开心的事情时，学会忘记不失为一个好办法，故填Forgetting things can also help us manage feelings. For example, When we meet unhappy things, learning to forget them is a good way. （答案不唯一） 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。 Carrie and her family were on their way to the big baseball game to celebrate Carrie’s birthday.

We have email now, but still no rocket mail. #2: Ape workers Who needs robots when you could have monkeys? Glenn T. Seaborg, a Nobel prize-winning chemist, predicted in 1951 that by 2020, we’d keep apes that could drive cars and perform other tasks for us. #3: Nuclear (核) vacuums (真空吸尘器) In 1955, Alex Lewyt, the president of a vacuum cleaner company, predicted that within 10 years nuclear power would run vacuums. What did he think people would do with the nuclear waste? #4: Meals in a pill In 1894, the chemist Marcellin Berthelot predicted that people of the future would get all the nutrition (营养) they needed in pill form. “Wheat fields are to disappear from the face of the Earth, because flour will no longer be produced from growing wheat, but made, ” he said. While we still rely on farms for food, scientists have worked out how to make meat from plants and how to grow it from cells. #5: Virtual reality everywhere In 1999, the futurist Ray Kurzweil predicted that by 2019, we’d wear lenses or glasses that would project (投射) virtual images onto the real world. He also thought the glasses might display a complete virtual reality that we could touch and interact with. Virtual reality (VR) technology isn’t nearly this good yet. To be fair, Kurzweil correctly predicted that AI would beat humans at chess and that we’d switch to digital books and music and movies. So maybe realistic VR is just around the corner? 24.

The idea of using nuclear power to run vacuums is not practical. B. It was a creative idea to use nuclear power to run vacuums. C. Nuclear power is of great importance to people’s daily life. D. Alex Lewyt has already found ways to deal with nuclear waste. 26. The article is mainly about ________. A. some successful inventions in history B. five predictions about future technology C. some developments about future technology D. predictions about the future of science fiction Have you ever seen a poster for a product in a place you didn’t expect? Or have you ever been surprised by a group of strangers who suddenly started singing and dancing together to advertise a service? People in advertising call this “guerrilla marketing”. It’s a term that describes low-cost and unusual marketing strategies (策略) that catch people off guard. Guerrilla marketing is different from traditional marketing because it doesn’t use typical marketing platforms like print, TV, or online advertising. It’s also a lot cheaper. It was first designed for small businesses with less money, but these days many large companies are trying this clever and affordable strategy. Coca-Cola is one such company. It once placed a special vending machine on a college campus. If students bought a bottle of Coca-Cola from the machine, they got two extra bottles free of charge to give to their friends. Sometimes, a hand came out of the machine and gave customers flowers instead of an extra drink. People loved it! Coca-Cola filmed customers enjoying this special “happiness machine” and posted the video online. Many people watched the video and shared it with their friends, and the company enjoyed free publicity. IKEA—one of the world’s largest furniture companies—also gave guerrilla marketing a try. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of its most popular bookcase, IKEA decided to try something different. It teamed up with a charity called the Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation to set up the world’s largest outdoor library. The location? On a beach! IKEA displayed its bookcases on Sydney’s Bondi Beach and filled them with over 6, 000 books. People got to see IKEA’s bookcase in use and find something interesting to read at the same time. 27. What is the writer’s purpose of the first paragraph? A. To describe how successful guerrilla marketing is. B. To show why guerrilla marketing is successful. C. To show when guerrilla marketing began. D. To explain what guerrilla marketing is. 28. The underlined phrase “off guard” means ________. A. not spending much money B. doing something unusual C. not expecting a surprise D. waiting for something new 29. IKEA probably chose Bondi Beach to show its products because ________. A. it was a future location for IKEA’s store B. it was an unusual place to see books C. it was near a public library D it was near an IKEA store 30. Why does the writer mention Coca-Cola and IKEA? A They are both well-known companies around the world. B. They both use traditional marketing strategies. C. They both spend a lot in advertising their products. D. They are both successful examples of guerrilla marketing. Molly Burke was not born blind. She started losing her sight when she was four years old. Doctors said that she had a rare eye disease that would gradually take away her vision. In first grade, she learned to read Braille, although she could still see. Life was pretty normal for the next few years. However, in seventh grade, things got worse. She couldn’t even see the blackboard. “I just started to cry, ” remembers Molly. As she began to lose her vision, she started using a stick to help her walk. By age 14, Molly was completely blind. Her classmates soon stopped inviting her to do things. A group of girls who were once her friends started bullying her. They even said that she was making up her blindness to get attention. Eventually, Molly became depressed (沮丧的). Her high school years were not easy. After she finished high school, Molly thought about what she wanted to do before college. Her brother was working in a children’s home in Africa, and she wanted to do something that would help others, too. Then she found out about Me to We, an organization that runs international volunteer trips. She joined the organization on a youth trip to Kenya to help build a school. While there, she spoke at a local girls’ school. Molly now knew what she wanted to do next—to help inspire (激励) people by being a speaker at Me to We. Molly began speaking at schools all over the United States and Canada. Her advice? Be strong! During a speech in Toronto, she spoke to about 20, 000 people. After her speech, the crowd stood up and clapped. “Molly has a real ability to inspire people and to help others, ” her father says. In 2014, Molly started her own channel on social media, uploading things like makeup video blogs, or vlogs. As of 2019, she has close to two million followers, some of whom don’t even know she’s blind. She tries to be a role model for young people, but is realistic about what she can and can’t do. She even makes fun of the challenges she faces as a blind person—like sharing a video that she once bit into a lemon, thinking it was a potato. In 2018, Molly moved out of her parents’ home and into her own apartment in Los Angeles, where she still lives today. “How can you hold somebody like that back? ” says her mother. “She’s unstoppable. ” 31. What could be the best title for the article? A. An Inspiring Role Model. B. High School Online Star. C How Molly Gained Her Vision. D. An Experience of Molly’s Speech. 32. Which period of time was probably the most difficult for Molly? A. Primary school. B. High school. C. College. D. After college. 33. What caused Molly to become a Me to We speaker? A.

If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember — from where we left our car keys to how we walk. Maybe it’s not surprising that sometimes we forget things. Scientists believe there are two levels of memory. One is short-term memory, which stays in your brain for only 15-30 seconds, for example, when you hear a song but can’t remember the words afterwards. The other level is long-term memory, which can be stored for days, months or even years. There are many uses for memory. Motor-skill memory helps you remember how to ride a bike or other activities, which can be strong can be short or long term. Emotional memory makes you think of how you felt about something and can be strong and powerful. They are long term. Memories can tell you the story of yourself. Information, such as which school you go to and who your friends are, is stored inside your brain, ready for when you need it. It’s much easier to remember all those facts, or formulas or whatever it is you’re learning if you have a good memory. Memories can also help you manage feelings. Heidi, 12, told The Week Junior, “If I miss seeing my granny and grandad, I remember staying with them in Devon. It makes me feel happy.” Our memory is amazing, but why do we still forget things? It’s possible we don’t always store information in our memory effectively. When we do store information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later. If you don’t have these connections, then it can be easier to forget. It is also possible that memories decay over time. As they have not been revisited, their biological “trace” becomes weak. However, forgetting is not always a bad thing!It would waste cognitive resources if we remembered every detail of the world around us. That’s something worth remembering!
