Can you imagine a cloud floating in the middle of your room? Do you want to know what it feels like to fly like a bird? Here, we have picked out four interesting inventions to share with you.

Google Glasses are like a computer built into a pair of glasses. Then the glasses allow you to surf the Internet and make calls without even lifting a finger. The glasses also have a camera and a GPS mapping system. Users can take and share photos, check maps and surf the Internet just by looking up, down, left and right.
Indoor Clouds

the temperature, humidity (湿度) and lighting all had to be just right. The cloud only lasted for a short while, though.
Wingsuits
The suit realizes your dream of flying like a bird. Well, not exactly flying, but gliding (滑翔) through the air. It increases the surface area of the human body, which makes it easier for people to float in the air. Fliers wearing wingsuits can glide one kilometer in about 30 seconds.

Children grow quickly, especially their feet. But many families cannot afford new shoes each time. As a result, about 300 million children around the world go barefoot. Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites(寄生虫)from the soil.
Kenton Lee, an American, has a solution for those barefoot kids—a shoe that grows with the child. He explains how the shoe works and how it is able to last so long. “It grows in three places:the front, the sides with Velcro(尼龙搭扣)and the back with a buckle(锁扣). It can last up to five years. The bottom is made of compressed rubber(压缩橡胶), and the top is high⁃quality leather. The shoes come in two sizes:small size that fits children aged 4 to 9 and large size for children aged 9 to 14.”
Lee says he got the idea of the shoe while working as a volunteer in Kenya. “There were many children with too small shoes for their feet, but they were too poor to buy new shoes. So they had to cut the front of the shoes open to let their toes stick out. I wanted to do something to help them, so I invented these shoes.”
Up to now, they have sent more than 50,000 pairs of shoes to 70 countries. A pair of shoes, he says, gives a child not only protection, but also self⁃worth. It's a small invention but really does make a big difference in these children's life.
24.What's the main reason for wearing a pair of shoes mentioned in this passage?
A.For beauty. B.For fashion. C.For health.
25.Where do the shoes grow?
①The front ②The bottom ③The sides ④The top ⑤The back
A.①③⑤ B.①②④ C.②③④
26.Who may appreciate the shoes of this kind according to the passage?
A.A 1⁃year⁃old child.
B.A 3⁃year⁃old child.
C.An 11⁃year⁃old child.
27.Why did Kenton Lee invent these shoes?
A.Because he wanted to be famous.
B.Because he wanted to be a designer.
C.Because he wanted to help the poor children.
28.This passage most probably comes from .

DNA is the genetic (遗传的) material found in all living things. It’s unique (独一无二的), so it’s usually used to identify (确认) people or animals. 29 Police can take a very small piece of DNA and find out who it is from. Now, a new study shows that criminals could soon be caught, using the DNA from cat’s hair if they are cat owners. Using cat DNA, scientists can now look into one piece of cat hair and identify the cat.
30 It’s because the hair doesn’t have hair roots (发根), it has little DNA.Also, cats’ DNA is very similar. One piece of cat hair can seem like the hair of thousands of different cats.
31 . They found a special piece of DNA from the cat’s hair. It has some parts that make a cat unique. 32 . So the scientists copy the DNA piece and make billions of copies. This way, they have a lot more pieces to look at. It’s now much easier for them to identify a cat just by its hair.
In their study, the scientists said they can also use the same way to identify other pets based on their hair, such as dogs. So it will be easier for the police to catch criminals. 33 Although the “bad guys” try not to leave their DNA behind, it’s difficult for them to clear away all the pet hairs, such as those on their clothes.
A.There is usually pet hair at crime scenes.
B.In the past, scientists couldn’t do that.
C.They find DNA in cats’ hair and make copies of it.
D.Scientist from the University of Leicester, UK, found a new way.
E.However, it’s difficult to see the most unique parts because they are too small.
F.DNA can be found in blood, hair, skin (皮肤) and many other parts of the body.

The Qingming Festival is also known as Tomb-Sweeping Day, Ancestors’ Day, or Pure Brightness Festival. It usually falls between early and late spring.

The ancient Chinese divided each solar term into three “hous”, or three phases, to describe the regular natural changes. There are 24 solar terms in total. For Qingming, the ancient Chinese noted “tung trees flower in the first hou, voles turn to quails in the second hou, and rainbows show up in the third hou.”(一候桐始华;二候田鼠化为鹌;三候虹始见。)
Now, the Qingming Festival is not only a time of sadness for many people, but a poetic and energetic festival.

DNA is the genetic (遗传的) material found in all living things. It’s unique (独一无二的), so it’s usually used to identify (确认) people or animals. 29 Police can take a very small piece of DNA and find out who it is from. Now, a new study shows that criminals could soon be caught, using the DNA from cat’s hair if they are cat owners. Using cat DNA, scientists can now look into one piece of cat hair and identify the cat.
30 It’s because the hair doesn’t have hair roots (发根), it has little DNA.Also, cats’ DNA is very similar. One piece of cat hair can seem like the hair of thousands of different cats.
31 . They found a special piece of DNA from the cat’s hair. It has some parts that make a cat unique. 32 . So the scientists copy the DNA piece and make billions of copies. This way, they have a lot more pieces to look at. It’s now much easier for them to identify a cat just by its hair.
In their study, the scientists said they can also use the same way to identify other pets based on their hair, such as dogs. So it will be easier for the police to catch criminals. 33 Although the “bad guys” try not to leave their DNA behind, it’s difficult for them to clear away all the pet hairs, such as those on their clothes.
A.There is usually pet hair at crime scenes.
B.In the past, scientists couldn’t do that.
C.They find DNA in cats’ hair and make copies of it.
D.Scientist from the University of Leicester, UK, found a new way.
E.However, it’s difficult to see the most unique parts because they are too small.
F.DNA can be found in blood, hair, skin (皮肤) and many other parts of the body.
【答案】29.F 30.B 31.D 32.E 33.A
【导语】本文介绍了一种新的研究,如果罪犯是猫的主人,那么可以利用猫毛中的DNA就可以很快抓住他们。
29.根据后句“Police can take a very small piece of DNA and find out who it is from.”可知,此句内容与DNA的介绍有关,F项“DNA可以在血液、头发、皮肤和身体的许多其他部位找到”符合语境,故选F。
30.根据后句“It’s because the hair doesn’t have hair roots (发根), it has little DNA.”可知,此句是说以前人们很难做到,B项“过去,科学家做不到这一点”符合语境,故选B。
31.根据本段“This way, they have a lot more pieces to look at. It’s now much easier for them to identify a cat just by its hair.”可知,此句是说人们发明了一种新的方法,D项“英国莱斯特大学的科学家发现了一种新方法”符合语境,故选D。
32.根据前句“It has some parts that make a cat unique.”和后句“So the scientists copy the DNA piece and make billions of copies.”可知,此处表示这种独特的部分不容易被人们使用,E项“然而,很难看到最独特的部分,因为它们太小了”符合语境,故选E。
33.根据“Although the ‘bad guys’ try not to leave their DNA behind, it’s difficult for them to clear away all the pet hairs, such as those on their clothes.”可知,此句是说犯罪现场常有宠物的毛发,A项“犯罪现场通常会有宠物的毛发”符合语境,故选A。
