Dear Bobby,
Sorry I haven’t written for so long, but I’ve been busy trying to get used to my new school. It’s not easy changing schools, believe me!
Where do I start? I’ll tell you about my school first. It’s a five-minute walk from my new house, so there is no need to worry about being late for school. As you know, I hate getting up early in the morning. There’s large space in the school and it has a fully-equipped gym (设备齐全的体育馆), a huge library, a large dining hall and three outdoor fields for football, basketball and tennis. Cool, don’t you think?
Now, about my new teachers. Most of them are good. Well, my maths teacher is really strict. He’s tall, thin and has a thick beard. He gives us lots of work to do both in class and for homework. One good thing about him, though (不过), is that he tells good jokes. All in all, I can’t complain. I’ve made two new friends who live in my neighbourhood and we’ve joined the football team together. However, I do miss you and all our other classmates.
Well, I’d better work hard here. Say hello to everyone and write soon.
Take care!
John

Do you know how the microwave oven was invented? In the 1940s, Percy Spencer worked at a company called Raytheon. They were making machines for World War II. One day, when testing a new machine part called a magnetron (磁控管), Percy noticed something strange. A chocolate bar in his pocket had melted (融化)! Percy wanted to know why it had melted.
Percy decided to do some research. He put a glass of water near the magnetron, and it boiled really fast! Then, he tried heating an egg, which exploded (爆炸). Percy realized that the microwaves from the magnetron could cook food quickly.
Percy and his team started working on a new kind of oven that used microwaves to cook food. In 1945, they made the first microwave oven, called the “Radarange.” This first microwave was bulky, about five feet tall and weighing over 700 pounds. It was mainly used in restaurants and on ships because it was too expensive for home use.
Over the next few years, engineers worked to make microwave ovens smaller, cheaper, and safer to use at home. By the 1970s, many families had microwave ovens in their kitchens. They loved how fast and easy it was to cook food with them. Microwave ovens could make food in minutes, which was much quicker than traditional ovens.
52. What strange thing interested Percy when he tested a magnetron?
A. The company. B. The garbage bin.
C. The glass of water. D. The melted chocolate bar.
53. What did Percy realize microwave could do? It could ________.
A. explode suddenly B. break an egg easily
C. boil the water slowly. D. cook food quickly.
54. What does the underlined word “bulky” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Old and broken. B. Large and heavy.
C. Cheap and useful. D. Dangerous and costly.
55. Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?
A. Now the microwave ovens are widely used in the kitchens
B. In the 1940s, Percy Spencer worked at a company with the name of a magnetron.
C. The first microwave oven called the “Radarange” was over 700 feet high.
D. The first microwave oven was mainly used at home and in restaurants.
D
A new AI system can be used to make predictions on crop yields (产量) up to six months before harvest (收获). The tool counts flowers on fruit trees, which can help farmers improve crop yields and make better use of their resources such as water and labor, and to plan harvests.
The system, developed by researchers at the National Robotarium in Edinburgh, can calculate the number of flowers on fruit trees from photos taken by a smart phone. It works by recognizing (识别) patterns and features, such as the edges and shapes of flowers. In Spain, studies on peach trees showed the system to be 90% correct in flower counts, which is much better than the 30% to 50% mistakes made by humans, according to researchers.
“In countries all across the world, farmers often depend on traditional methods to predict their yields, which can lead to big mistakes,” said Fernando Auat Cheein, a professor at the National Robotarium. He also praised the simplicity and correctness of the flower-counting AI and its possibility to help farmers make wise decisions about crop management.
“By focusing their efforts on areas of the farm that are expected to produce the most fruit, farmers can make the most of resources, reduce their environmental effect, and improve both the quantity and quality of their harvest,” said Mr. Cheein. “Our AI tool can be combined with traditional farming practices, making it easier for growers to get help with creative solutions without completely changing their present methods.”
The researchers will next compare the AI’s predictions with the actual peach harvest in the autumn of 2024. If these turn out to be effective (有效的), they believe the method could be used for crops such as apples, pears, and cherries, helping fruit growers in Britain, Europe, and other areas.
56. What is the purpose of new AI tool?
A. To harvest crops. B. To water fruit trees.
C. To predict crop yields. D. To speed up the crop growth.
57. How can the AI system calculate the number of the flowers from photos?
A. It can take photos by a smart phone.
B. It recognizes many types of flowers.
C. It works by recognizing patterns and features.
D. It can depend on traditional methods to calculate the number of flowers.
58. What words best describe the AI system according to Paragraph 3?
A. Helpful and promising (有前景的). B. Creative and expensive.
C. Practical and interesting. D. Convenient and eco-friendly.
59. Why does the author mention Mr. Cheein’s words in Paragraph 4?
A. To offer suggestions on using the AI system.
B To show the help farmers can get from AI system.
C. To explain the need for improving the quality of crops.
D. To compare traditional farming methods with the new AI system.
60. What is the researchers’ next step?
A. Trying the AI system for more fruits.
B. Putting the AI system into the market.
C. Testing the AI system in different countries.
D. Checking the effectiveness of the Al prediction.

六、阅读与表达(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,回答问题(每题答案不超过6个单词)。
Did you look out of a window today? Many glass factories make windows. They mix old and new glass together for this. Machines heat the sand mixture to a very high temperature. Then they pour the melted glass into a tray (托盘). This tray moves between rollers to make the glass flat. The trays make the glass into a window shape. It is slowly heated and cooled more than one time to make it stronger. It is very hot in a glass factory. People can’t work there, but machines can. Machines do much of the work in making windows because the heat does not hurt them.
A machine can also be used to make glass bottles. It melts glass and puts it into a mold in the shape of a bottle. Air goes into an opening in the bottle shape. Then the glass cools and becomes hard. The bottle must be heated and cooled again very slowly to make it stronger. If it is heated and cooled too fast, the glass will break. Glass bottles are very helpful. They are often used everywhere to hold drinks and food. They are good for storing things so that we use all of the time. As you can see, many things can be made out of glass. Next time you look out of a window or drink from a glass, think about where it came from!
81. What are windows made out of?
________________________________________________
82. How can we make the glass flat?
________________________________________________
83. What happens to the glass when it cools?

84. What can we use glass bottles to do?

请以“A hero in my heart”为题,写下你心中这位英雄的故事以及他(她)对你的影响。注意:1. 词数90左右;2. 可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;3. 不得出现真实的人名、校名等相关信息

Do you know how the microwave oven was invented? In the 1940s, Percy Spencer worked at a company called Raytheon. They were making machines for World War II. One day, when testing a new machine part called a magnetron (磁控管), Percy noticed something strange. A chocolate bar in his pocket had melted (融化)! Percy wanted to know why it had melted.
Percy decided to do some research. He put a glass of water near the magnetron, and it boiled really fast! Then, he tried heating an egg, which exploded (爆炸). Percy realized that the microwaves from the magnetron could cook food quickly.
Percy and his team started working on a new kind of oven that used microwaves to cook food. In 1945, they made the first microwave oven, called the “Radarange.” This first microwave was bulky, about five feet tall and weighing over 700 pounds. It was mainly used in restaurants and on ships because it was too expensive for home use.
Over the next few years, engineers worked to make microwave ovens smaller, cheaper, and safer to use at home. By the 1970s, many families had microwave ovens in their kitchens. They loved how fast and easy it was to cook food with them. Microwave ovens could make food in minutes, which was much quicker than traditional ovens.
52. What strange thing interested Percy when he tested a magnetron?
A. The company. B. The garbage bin.
C. The glass of water. D. The melted chocolate bar.
53. What did Percy realize microwave could do? It could ________.
A. explode suddenly B. break an egg easily
C. boil the water slowly. D. cook food quickly.
54. What does the underlined word “bulky” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Old and broken. B. Large and heavy.
C. Cheap and useful. D. Dangerous and costly.
55. Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?
A. Now the microwave ovens are widely used in the kitchens
B. In the 1940s, Percy Spencer worked at a company with the name of a magnetron.
C. The first microwave oven called the “Radarange” was over 700 feet high.
D. The first microwave oven was mainly used at home and in restaurants.

A new AI system can be used to make predictions on crop yields (产量) up to six months before harvest (收获). The tool counts flowers on fruit trees, which can help farmers improve crop yields and make better use of their resources such as water and labor, and to plan harvests.
The system, developed by researchers at the National Robotarium in Edinburgh, can calculate the number of flowers on fruit trees from photos taken by a smart phone. It works by recognizing (识别) patterns and features, such as the edges and shapes of flowers. In Spain, studies on peach trees showed the system to be 90% correct in flower counts, which is much better than the 30% to 50% mistakes made by humans, according to researchers.
“In countries all across the world, farmers often depend on traditional methods to predict their yields, which can lead to big mistakes,” said Fernando Auat Cheein, a professor at the National Robotarium. He also praised the simplicity and correctness of the flower-counting AI and its possibility to help farmers make wise decisions about crop management.
“By focusing their efforts on areas of the farm that are expected to produce the most fruit, farmers can make the most of resources, reduce their environmental effect, and improve both the quantity and quality of their harvest,” said Mr. Cheein. “Our AI tool can be combined with traditional farming practices, making it easier for growers to get help with creative solutions without completely changing their present methods.”
The researchers will next compare the AI’s predictions with the actual peach harvest in the autumn of 2024. If these turn out to be effective (有效的), they believe the method could be used for crops such as apples, pears, and cherries, helping fruit growers in Britain, Europe, and other areas.
56. What is the purpose of new AI tool?
A. To harvest crops. B. To water fruit trees.
C. To predict crop yields. D. To speed up the crop growth.
57. How can the AI system calculate the number of the flowers from photos?
A. It can take photos by a smart phone.
B. It recognizes many types of flowers.
C. It works by recognizing patterns and features.
D. It can depend on traditional methods to calculate the number of flowers.
58. What words best describe the AI system according to Paragraph 3?
A. Helpful and promising (有前景的). B. Creative and expensive.
C. Practical and interesting. D. Convenient and eco-friendly.
59. Why does the author mention Mr. Cheein’s words in Paragraph 4?
A. To offer suggestions on using the AI system.
B. To show the help farmers can get from AI system.
C. To explain the need for improving the quality of crops.
D. To compare traditional farming methods with the new AI system.
60. What is the researchers’ next step?
A. Trying the AI system for more fruits.
B. Putting the AI system into the market.
C. Testing the AI system in different countries.
D. Checking the effectiveness of the Al prediction.
【答案】56. C 57. C 58. A 59. B 60. D

六、阅读与表达(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,回答问题(每题答案不超过6个单词)。
Did you look out of a window today? Many glass factories make windows. They mix old and new glass together for this. Machines heat the sand mixture to a very high temperature. Then they pour the melted glass into a tray (托盘). This tray moves between rollers to make the glass flat. The trays make the glass into a window shape. It is slowly heated and cooled more than one time to make it stronger. It is very hot in a glass factory. People can’t work there, but machines can. Machines do much of the work in making windows because the heat does not hurt them.
A machine can also be used to make glass bottles. It melts glass and puts it into a mold in the shape of a bottle. Air goes into an opening in the bottle shape. Then the glass cools and becomes hard. The bottle must be heated and cooled again very slowly to make it stronger. If it is heated and cooled too fast, the glass will break. Glass bottles are very helpful. They are often used everywhere to hold drinks and food. They are good for storing things so that we use all of the time. As you can see, many things can be made out of glass. Next time you look out of a window or drink from a glass, think about where it came from!
