They were Flint’s treasure! We had come so far to find this. Already it had cost the lives of seventeen men from the Hispaniola. And how many others? How many ships had gone to the bottom of the sea? How many brave men had been killed for this? Perhaps no man alive could tell. Next morning, we moved all the gold to the beach. Then we took it by boat to the Hispaniola. It was a big job for so small a number of men. Then at last, one sunny morning, we sailed out of North Inlet and towards the nearest port (港口) in Spanish America. Before afternoon, Treasure Island had disappeared from view, and I had never felt happier to leave a place behind. The sun was going down when we sailed into the port, and doctor and Mr Trelawney took me to the beach. When we came back, Ben Gunn was waiting for us. I think we were all pleased to lose the bad man at so small a price. We found some sailors for the ship at the port, and then had a good journey home. Only five of the men who had sailed from Bristol with the Hispaniola returned with her. We all took a large piece of the treasure. Some used it wisely, but some did not. Captain Smollett no longer goes to sea. Gray saved his money and now is a half owner and captain of a fine ship. Ben Gunn got a thousand pounds which he spent or lost in three weeks then he came begging and was given a job as a gatekeeper. Of Silver we have heard no more. That scary sea man with one leg has gone out of my life. I will never return to Treasure Island, but in my worst dreams I still hear the sharp, high cries of Captain Flint the parrot, “Pieces of eight! Pieces of eight!” —Adapted from Treasure Island 52.

Let’s see some of them. A girl in hospital had hardly eaten anything for two days. The nurse took Robin, a robot, into the girl’s room. After chatting and playing games, Robin said goodbye, and agreed to return only if the girl promised to eat. Surely enough, she ate something. With big eyes and a kind character, Robin is designed to help kids in hospital. “The goal is to create a technology that’s not just a device but a partner and friend,” said Karén Khachikyan. His company invented Robin. Andrea Mocellin used to be a sports-car designer. He knows how to make things move fast. Now Mocellin is using his skills to build a better and more travel-friendly wheelchair, the Revolve Air. The wheelchair has many advantages. Mocellin wants to get it out soon. He has nearly 12,000 customers on his waiting list. Purrble is a toy that can make anxious kids feel better. This toy has seven sensors (传感器). They respond (回应) to touches. Purrble’s heartbeat speeds up when you play with it. Then you can comfort Purrble by petting (抚摸) it. This slows its heartbeat down. It calms you too. In a study of 20 families, 19 parents said that Purrble helped their kids calm down. “I grew up with a bad illness as a child and would have loved to have this,” said Aaron Horowitz. He’s the CEO of Sproutel, which designed the toy. 56. Who made the girl in hospital eat something? A. A doctor. B. A nurse. C. A robot. D. A friend. 57. What does Robin look like? A. It is short. B. It has long legs. C. It has a big head. D. It has big eyes. 58. What is Mocellin using his skills to build now? A. A very fast sports car. B. A warm-hearted robot. C. The Revolve Air. D. Purrble. 59. When you pet Purrble, what will happen? A. It will also pet you. B. Its heartbeat will slow down. C. Its heartbeat will speed up. D. It will play games with you. 60. Which of the following structure is right according to the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】56. C 57. D 58. C 59. B 60.

Children should get enough sleep. ____61____ A study says that because of being short of sleep, it is much harder for children to do something carefully. ____62____ Another study shows that the right amount of night- time sleep is just as important for children’s development as healthy eating and taking exercise. ____63____ In general a younger child needs more sleep than an older one.

In fact, many parents don’t know how to help their children get enough sleep. Here is something you can do. For children at the age of 5-11, a 30~40 minutes’ routine (常规) before sleep is helpful. ____64____ In the activities, children relax and enjoy themselves a lot, and they will go to sleep more easily. Children at the age of more than 11 may go to bed late in the evening, talking with friends online, playing games or watching TV. ____65____ And even they will be tired during the day. So limit your children’s use of the Internet, games and the TV before they go to bed. And don’t allow them to have a computer or TV set in their bedroom. A. Why does a child need so much sleep? B. How many hours of sleep is enough for a child? C. So they will find it difficult to get up in the next morning. D. It includes a bath, reading a story together and so on. E. Taking exercise is as important as enough sleep for children. F. And also they become forgetful and easy to make mistakes. G.

There was one thing that I just could not leave behind (留下): my cat Willow. There was a simple way to solve it—I went on a journey with my best animal friend! In the past 3 years, we have travelled over 70,000 kilometers around Australia. We have seen forests and beaches together. This year, we spent three months in the desert. I’m happy to go back to the beautiful beach, but I’m not sure what Willow thinks. Some people were surprised to find that I was travelling with a cat. I remember that once a backpacker (背包客) at a campsite shouted, “Excuse me, there is a cat trying to get into your van!” I know. The van, a tiny house on wheels, is our home. I built it by myself with a bed, cupboards, a kitchen—and plenty of places for a little cat to hide! It might be small, but the whole Australia is our garden. Willow enjoys exploring the places she has never visited, but she doesn’t like to go too far from our van. She loves to sit on the dashboard (仪表盘) to enjoy a great view. I put our photos on the Internet and look forward to hearing from people all over the world who are following our adventures. We are lucky. We always have each other and the whole Australia to see. I will treasure the memory for a lifetime. If Willow has taught me anything, it is that happiness doesn’t require much. A bit of food, shelter and a whole lot of love will be well enough. 86.

Perhaps no man alive could tell. Next morning, we moved all the gold to the beach. Then we took it by boat to the Hispaniola. It was a big job for so small a number of men. Then at last, one sunny morning, we sailed out of North Inlet and towards the nearest port (港口) in Spanish America. Before afternoon, Treasure Island had disappeared from view, and I had never felt happier to leave a place behind. The sun was going down when we sailed into the port, and doctor and Mr Trelawney took me to the beach. When we came back, Ben Gunn was waiting for us. I think we were all pleased to lose the bad man at so small a price. We found some sailors for the ship at the port, and then had a good journey home. Only five of the men who had sailed from Bristol with the Hispaniola returned with her. We all took a large piece of the treasure. Some used it wisely, but some did not. Captain Smollett no longer goes to sea. Gray saved his money and now is a half owner and captain of a fine ship. Ben Gunn got a thousand pounds which he spent or lost in three weeks, then he came begging and was given a job as a gatekeeper. Of Silver we have heard no more. That scary sea man with one leg has gone out of my life. I will never return to Treasure Island, but in my worst dreams I still hear the sharp, high cries of Captain Flint the parrot, “Pieces of eight! Pieces of eight!” —Adapted from Treasure Island 52.

D Every year, some inventions are making the world better and a bit more fun. Let’s see some of them. A girl in hospital had hardly eaten anything for two days. The nurse took Robin, a robot, into the girl’s room. After chatting and playing games, Robin said goodbye, and agreed to return only if the girl promised to eat. Surely enough, she ate something. With big eyes and a kind character, Robin is designed to help kids in hospital. “The goal is to create a technology that’s not just a device but a partner and friend,” said Karén Khachikyan. His company invented Robin. Andrea Mocellin used to be a sports-car designer. He knows how to make things move fast. Now Mocellin is using his skills to build a better and more travel-friendly wheelchair, the Revolve Air. The wheelchair has many advantages. Mocellin wants to get it out soon. He has nearly 12,000 customers on his waiting list. Purrble is a toy that can make anxious kids feel better. This toy has seven sensors (传感器). They respond (回应) to touches. Purrble’s heartbeat speeds up when you play with it. Then you can comfort Purrble by petting (抚摸) it. This slows its heartbeat down. It calms you too. In a study of 20 families, 19 parents said that Purrble helped their kids calm down. “I grew up with a bad illness as a child and would have loved to have this,” said Aaron Horowitz. He’s the CEO of Sproutel, which designed the toy. 56. Who made the girl in hospital eat something? A. A doctor. B. A nurse. C. A robot. D. A friend. 57. What does Robin look like? A. It is short. B.

There was a simple way to solve it—I went on a journey with my best animal friend! In the past 3 years, we have travelled over 70,000 kilometers around Australia. We have seen forests and beaches together. This year, we spent three months in the desert. I’m happy to go back to the beautiful beach, but I’m not sure what Willow thinks. Some people were surprised to find that I was travelling with a cat. I remember that once a backpacker (背包客) at a campsite shouted, “Excuse me, there is a cat trying to get into your van!” I know. The van, a tiny house on wheels, is our home. I built it by myself with a bed, cupboards, a kitchen—and plenty of places for a little cat to hide! It might be small, but the whole Australia is our garden. Willow enjoys exploring the places she has never visited, but she doesn’t like to go too far from our van. She loves to sit on the dashboard (仪表盘) to enjoy a great view. I put our photos on the Internet and look forward to hearing from people all over the world who are following our adventures. We are lucky. We always have each other and the whole Australia to see. I will treasure the memory for a lifetime. If Willow has taught me anything, it is that happiness doesn’t require much. A bit of food, shelter and a whole lot of love will be well enough. 86. Could the writer leave behind his house and job? ________________________________________________________________ 87.
