They may one day be able to provide global warnings about earthquakes. Google, which helped develop Android, is helping build the quake alerts (警报器) into all phones that run the common mobile operating system. Android users who have enabled location services and are near a quake of magnitude (震级) 4.5 or greater will receive a full-screen earthquake warning, telling them to drop to the floor and look for cover. The screen will also provide information about the quake’s magnitude and distance from the user. Depending on their distance from a quake, people could get several seconds or perhaps a minute of warning. California's world-class earthquake early warning system will be a standard function on every Android phone-giving millions of people precious (宝贵的) seconds to drop, cover and hold on when the big one hits. Users don’t need to download California’s MyShake app in order to receive the warnings. IPhone users won’t receive the warnings through Apple’s operating system, but they can download the MyShake app. Also, Google announced that Android phones will begin sensing earthquakes from around the world. “Your Android phone can be a mini-seismometer (地震仪), joining millions of other Android phones out there to form the world’s largest earthquake detection network,” according to a Google blog post. Hundreds of millions of people live in areas where earthquakes take place often. But many countries are short of information to build detection and alert systems. The information will be used at first to provide fast and accurate (精确的) information on Google Search. But Google said it could begin sending out earthquake alerts next year. 1．You will benefit (得益) from the earthquake warning system if ________. A．you are an Android user B．you live in California C．you give up using MyShake app D．you have a smart phone 2．What can the earthquake early warning system do? A．Show us where to keep ourselves safe.

However, plastic cutlery is one of the biggest causes of pollution on our earth. While people are trying different ways to reduce plastic waste in their daily life, some companies are also taking action and among them is Biofase. Recently the company has found a new way to deal with plastic pollution—they succeeded in creating single-use cutlery with avocado seeds (鳄梨种子) that can biodegrade (生物降解) in 240 days. Biofase is based in Mexico and there is one thing they can easily get their hands on-avocados. The avocado is a fruit with hard dark green skin and a large seed inside. Mexico is the world leader in avocado growing—about 50% of the world’s avocados come from the country. As many companies there process avocados to make oil, Biofase wanted to collect avocado seeds from the companies and make use of them. But it was not so easy to find a suitable way to turn them into biodegradable cutlery. The biggest challenge (挑战) was to find a way to turn the material into a desired (期望的) shape. Everything comes to him who works hard. After studying for over a year and a half, Biofase was able to make single-use cutlery with avocado seeds. Their products look no different from plastic cutlery. Kept in a fresh and dry place, they stay usable for one year, but after that, they start to biodegrade without leaving anything behind. 1．What has Biofase done to deal with plastic pollution? A．It has encouraged people to eat out. B．It has created biodegradable cutlery. C．It has grown millions of avocado plants.

He studies one kind of North American butterfly. During the late summer or autumn, this butterfly travels from Northern USA and Southern Canada to Mexico, covering thousands of miles. Fantastic facts about the butterfly have been drawing Dr. Taylor’s attention. In Mexico, the butterflies always return to the same small piece of forest, which is only 20 kilometers wide. Here, as many as 230 million butterflies spend the winter. They cover some trees almost completely. The butterflies that return to the south are the great-great grandchildren of the butteries that left for the north. When they begin to travel north in spring, the females lay eggs. They lay eggs on only one plant: milkweed. But in Mexico, people cut down the trees that the butterflies need to rest on because they want more land for farming. In the United States and Canada, farmers use chemicals that kill milkweed. This worries Dr. Taylor a lot. Now things are improving. Mexico has begun to protect parts of its forests. The United States and Canada have encouraged farmers to use fewer chemicals. Scientists still don’t understand how the butterflies know when to fly south. If they are even a few days late, they will freeze (冻僵). And how do all the great-great grandchildren find the same forest in Mexico every year? This is both puzzling and interesting for many scientists. There are many mysteries yet to be discovered by those interested in science. Would you like to study biology? 1．When do the butterflies lay eggs? A．In spring. B．In summer. C．In autumn. D．In winter. 2．What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．Fantastic facts about the butterflies.

Just one second later, you’ll get the story of Max, who got over many difficulties to sing among the stars. This robot writer is called ChatGPT developed by a US company Open AI. The technology chats in a conversational way, answering questions from the Internet users. It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. It’s one of the most powerful AI robots of its kind. The power of ChatGPT lies in its speed and understanding of complicated (复杂的) matters. We may spend hours researching, understanding and writing an article on the theory of evolution (进化论). But ChatGPT can produce a well-written one in seconds. Another good thing about it is that if you ask dark, harmful questions, for example, how to make weapons (武器), it will not give you an answer. However, ChatGPT also brings some problems. The materials (材料) they create are difficult to tell from those made by humans. This causes many problems, such as the copyright (版权) problem and the definition (定义) of art. It could also result in many translators and writers losing their jobs or being paid much less, as their skills are no longer something companies need. It’s too soon to say what kind of influence ChatGPT will have on our lives. Let’s hope that, if ChatCPT does become bigger and more popular, its effects are mostly positive. 1．How does the writer start the text? A．By telling a story. B．By listing numbers. C．By asking a question. D．By giving an example. 2．What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．An article. B．A song. C．A question. D．A story. 3．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

China has kept the promise to hold a green Olympics. It took more than six years to prepare for the Games. In this process, the designers put the idea of green Olympics into every part. They integrated green Olympics with the city and its surroundings (环境). Many green actions made it possible, like providing environmentally friendly smart beds, using a large number of new energy cars, supporting sporting places with 100% clean energy and reusing rain and snow water. Take making ice as an example. China didn’t use R507, a common material to make ice, because it isn’t friendly enough to the environment. Through 18 months’ hard work, China independently developed the CO₂ direct cooling technology. A net of tubes (管道) runs under the ice. High-pressure liquid (液态) CO₂ goes through them to create heat (热) exchange. The CO₂ evaporates (蒸发) under the ice surface. The evaporation takes in heat and turns water on the surface into ice. And the CO₂ goes into another circle. This technology helps to make ice better and faster. And above all, it is much greener because there’s no new CO₂ produced. Among all the 15 ice sporting places in the Winter Olympics, 7 used the CO₂ direct cooling technology to make ice. As a result, much less pollution was caused. The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is the first to truly achieve carbon neutrality (碳中和), and it has set new standards in green technologies. Some newspapers say China has made great contributions to the world's environmental protection and green development. 1．What does the underlined word “integrated” mean in Para.1? A．改进 B．创造 C．注意 D．融合 2．The main purpose of Para.3 is to show ________. A．why the CO₂ goes into another circle B．how the new ice-making technology helped C．how sporting places used the new technology D．why the liquid CO₂ runs through the net of tubes 3．What can we infer (推断) from the text? A．The CO₂ direct cooling technology may be widely used in the world. B．The high-pressure liquid CO₂ will totally take the place of R507 soon. C．No new standards in green technologies may be set after the Olympics. D．Only a few new energy cars were used at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. 4．The writer wrote the text in a ________ tone (语气). A．doubtful B．serious C．negative D．proud 5．What is the best title for the text? A．Green Technologies Used in Sports B．The Green Beijing Winter Olympics C．A New Green Ice-making Technology D．A Shared Future of Green Development 6.（23-24九年级上·福建泉州·期末） One winter morning, Tapiwa Chiwewe was driving to work in Johannesburg, South Africa. He noticed a haze (薄雾) hanging over the city and it didn’t take long for him to realize that it was the pollution we suffered. At that moment, Chiwewe felt an urge to do something about it, but didn’t know what. He was a computer engineer and knew little about environmental science. He first did research on air pollution and found that it is the world’s biggest environmental health risk. He decided to work on it in a cooperative (合作的) way. He talked to scientists, officials, and engineers who helped him develop a deeper understanding of the situation, as well as an idea to improve it. Through years of work. Chiwewe and his coworkers from South Africa and China created an online air quality decision support system (系统). Based on historical and real-time data, the system can correctly predict (预测) air pollution and air quality, which can help people make better decisions about their daily movements, as well as help officials better manage their operations. Chiwewe learned an important lesson—“a lesson we all need to take into heart if we are to work towards a better future. Even if you’re not an expert in a particular field, your outside expertise may hold the key to solving problems within that field,” he said. What if Chiwewe hadn’t worried to research the problem and do something about it? What if he had just hoped that someone, somewhere, was taking care of the matter? As Chiwewe said: “Why not just go ahead and deal with the problem as well as you can, in your own way? You may be pleasantly surprised.” 1．Tapiwa Chiwewe worked in _________. A．China B．America C．South Africa D．Japan 2．Chiwewe found that _________ is the world’s biggest environmental health risk.

A．Chiwewe is a person with a sense of social responsibility. B．Chiwewe knew more about environmental science. C．Chiwewe worked on the pollution by himself. D．The system can reduce the pollution. 5．How is the text organized? （①: Paragraph 1  ②: Paragraph 2…） A．B． C． D． 7.（23-24九年级上·福建龙岩·期末） It has been two months since Richard Watson wore 200 special transmitters (信号发射机) for his cows. They are parts of an artificial intelligence (AI) system named Ida. This AI system can send messages to Watson’s phone when his cows are healthy or when they are not feeling well, and it can tell how many animals are sick to the dairy farmers (奶农) and also help them pick out the sick animals. With the AI system, farmers can get the information they need from their phones instead of going to the farms to check animals every day. So, this AI system can help people spare their time to do other things. Many dairy farmers are interested in Ida. Watson is one of them. On a common morning in March, he pulled out his phone to check his Ida App. It showed that Cows #97800 and #97782 were eating less. This might mean that there was something wrong with them. However, some farmers say, “I can find out the cow that isn’t feeling great just by looking at her eyes.” Mark Rodgers is a neighbor of Watson’s. He said, “This is what I can do by myself. My experience can help me look after them better. Technology isn’t always useful.” Ida was developed by the company Connecterra. Yasir Khokhar, the company’s boss, said he came up with the idea while he was living on a farm in Holland. The system can record cow’s behaviors by studying videos of them. It now can track seven cows’ behaviors. The company is still trying to improve this technology to provide much more convenience (便利) for farmers. 1．The AI system Ida can help farmers ________. ① look after their animals            ② pick out the sick animals ③number the sick animals          ④ change animals’ behaviors A．①② B．②③ C．③④ D．②④ 2．What’s the main idea of paragraph 2? A．Farmers have problems feeding cows. B．Farmers are busy checking the animals. C．AI technologies are used in many fields. D．This AI system is popular with dairy farmers. 3．What can we infer from the text? A．Yasit Khokhar will stop his company business. B．Richard Watson will keep more cows on his farm. C．Mark Rodgers doesn’t want any help from the system. D．The system can also provide the cows with medical treatment. 4．Which of the following best describes Yasir Khokhar? A．Creative. B．Brave. C．Honest. D．Friendly. 5．What’s the main purpose of the text? A．To list the features of Ida. B．To improve the design of Ida C．To give the introduction of Ida. D．To explain the development of Ida. 8.（23-24九年级上·福建泉州·期末） In recent years, plastic pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems around the world. Many countries have been looking for effective ways for a better future. In November, 2022, China started a “bamboo instead of plastic” initiative (倡议) with the International Bamboo and Rattan Organization (国际竹藤组织), which will hopefully increase green bamboo products and reduce plastic pollution. Bamboo is a renewable natural resource of great value, such as cleaning air and preventing soil loss. Unlike trees which usually need so long time to fully grow, bamboo can be harvested in 3 to 5 years. As long as it is protected well, bamboo can be cut every year and doesn’t have to be replanted. Bamboo can be used to make different kinds of products. These products can take the place of plastic products in many fields such as packaging and building. Moreover, bamboo is an innocuous material. It doesn’t cause any pollution when it has to be thrown away. China is one of the countries with the richest bamboo resources in the world. The Chinese are a pioneer (先驱) in the use of bamboo. Provinces Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan and Guizhou in the country have set up companies to develop and produce bamboo products. They cover the areas of tableware, furniture, decoration, daily necessities, etc. Many of them have been sold to different countries. China is also sharing its technologies and experience to help other countries with rich bamboo resources. It is hoped that countries will work together for global green development. 1．What is the purpose of Paragraph 1? A．To ask people to protect bamboo. B．To advise people to plant more bamboo. C．To encourage people to make good use of bamboo. D．To invite people to learn about Chinese bamboo culture. 2．How long does it take for bamboo to fully grow? A．For one year. B．For three to five years. C．For ten years. D．For more than ten years. 3．What does the underlined word “innocuous” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Harmless. B．Strong. C．Cheap. D．Light. 4．What can we get from the last paragraph? A．Few people use bamboo products in Europe. B．China hopes to set up more companies in other countries. C．China is helping other countries with rich bamboo resources. D．Guizhou and Henan have set up companies to produce bamboo. 5．Which can be the best title for the passage? A．Chinese Bamboo Products B．Less Plastic, More Bamboo C．Bamboo in Chinese Culture D．Countries with Rich Bamboo Resources 9.（23-24九年级上·福建泉州·期末） Do you know the word “migrate”? “Migrate” is usually used to talk about certain animals such as birds and fish. When animals migrate, they travel a long way from one part of the world to another according to the season. Many animals migrate—they do this often at the same time and to the same place each year. They move to places where conditions are better—where the weather is warmer, where there is more food and water, or where their young will be safer. People also migrate. When people migrate, they go to live in another area or country, especially in order to find work. In England, when people leave their home country in order to live in another country, we use the word “emigrate” instead of “migrate”. From “migrate” and “emigrate” come the words “migration” and “emigration”. However, if people move from their home country to another to live there evermore (永久地), the word changes from “emigrate” to “immigrate” in the English language. Then the word “immigration” is born. Isn’t word-making of the English language interesting? And can this process (过程) of finding out the relationships between words and learning them in a group or groups be a way for you to learn the language? —Based on www. youdao.com 1．Which situation can match the main idea of Paragraph 2? A．Snakes move into holes to sleep in winter. B．Fish swim to clean waters because of pollution. C．Birds fly to find food and return to give it to their babies. D．Butterflies in North America fly south to stay away from the cold. 2．Which word can be used if people leave their home country to live in another forever? A．Travel. B．Migrate. C．Emigrate. D．Immigrate. 3．The text is written to ________. A．introduce the migration of animals B．tell readers a way of learning English C．show how English words change D．explain why people migrate 4．What does the writer probably do? A．An animal keeper.

Many people would think of Confucius, whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution to the education today. Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports. Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime. Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.” “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.” Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others,” he said. 1．Today we still remember Confucius mainly because ________.

Because of its special climate (气候), the United Arab Emirates (UAE) depends heavily on desalinated water (淡化水), which is bad for the environment. For the last six years Abdulla Alshehi has been working on a project to pull a 2km×500m iceberg from Antarctica, using modern technology to move it 5,500 miles to the Arabian Gulf, hoping to provide drinking water for millions of people for up to five years, as well as change the weather in this area. In 1975, French scientists came up with the plan, but the plan failed two years later, as a result of technological difficulties. Alshehi wants to pull a huge iceberg, using a belt (带子) to prevent it from falling apart during the long journey. He expects it to lose about 30% during the 10 months it would take to pull the iceberg to the Arabian Gulf, but the remaining would still leave more than enough. How to keep the iceberg from turning into water fast is another big challenge. Alshehi said, “The iceberg is expected to reach in winter, and the iceberg is as deep as 300 meters in the sea —the deeper you go, the colder the ice is.” More experiments will be done later this year, with a smaller iceberg going to be pulled for a short way by boat. If that works out well, preparations will be made to have a huge one moved. 1．The weather in the UAE is probably ________. A．very dry with little or no rain B．often rainy with strong winds C．different from that of other places D．too cold because of too much snow 2．To perform the project, the key point might be ________. A．high costs B．changes in climate C．technology support D．people’s agreement 3．What will happen if this project works successfully? A．More countries will do the same thing. B．The world climate will be influenced. C．People of the UAE would pay more for water. D．The UAE will pull another iceberg several years later. 4．What can we know about the iceberg that Alshehi will choose? A．The iceberg may break up easily on the way. B．Most of the iceberg will turn into water on the way. C．The best time for the iceberg to arrive in the UAE is this winter. D．The underwater part of the iceberg may be hundreds of meters below sea level. 5．The underlined word “one” in the last paragraph refers to “________”. A．experiment B．iceberg C．boat D．project 12.（23-24九年级上·广东深圳·期末） Aarrav Anil has had a deep interest in mechanics (机械学) since childhood. This allows the teen to represent (代表) India at more than 20 robotics competitions around the world. But Aarrav didn’t create his smart spoon to win a prize. He saw his uncle, who has Parkinson’s disease (PD) (帕金森病), struggling to feed himself. Food kept falling out of his mouth, making him look like a mess. He wanted to make a change. More than 7 million people in India have PD．The disease influences the brain, causing patients to shake uncontrollably. As the disease progresses, it leads to difficulty in eating by oneself. Aarrav wanted his uncle to be able to eat by himself. This encouraged the teen to look for a way to help his uncle. So he took to his room with sensors (传感器), a 3D printer and other tools. But not everything went well. “It was disappointing not to be able to find certain parts I needed in India. I had to buy some from abroad,” Aarrav said in an interview. Aarrav made a first model, but the spoon handle was not easy for his uncle to hold. “I’ve improved the invention. It needs to be waterproof (防水的). The spoon must be easily separated, so that it can be cleaned and replaced with a fork. And the spoon needs to be deeper to hold more food,” the teen said. The smart spoon is now being tested at a local college. The test is expected to be completed in early 2024.

Just one second later, you’ll get the story of Max, who got over many difficulties to sing among the stars. This robot writer is called ChatGPT. US company OpenAI developed it. The technology chats in a conversational way, answering questions from the Internet user. It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. The power of ChatGPT lies in its speed and understanding of complicated (复杂的) matters. We may spend hours researching, understanding and writing an article on the theory of evolution (进化论). But ChatGPT can produce a well-written one in seconds. Another good thing about it is that if you ask dark, dangerous questions, it will not give you an answer. However, there are also some issues about ChatGPT. The texts they create are difficult to tell from those made by humans. This causes many problems, such as the copyright (版权) problem. It could also result in many translators and writers losing their jobs or being paid much less, as their skills are no longer something companies need. The tool also makes it easier for students to cheat on homework, which is bad for their development. It’s too soon to say what kind of influence ChatGPT will have on our lives. Let’s hope that, if we make good use of ChatGPT, it may turn out to be a strong tool! 1．The cat story in Paragraph 1 was written to ________.

It’s just like a classroom full of hard-working students. Take Toronto, Canada, for example. Tech company Google has made public a 1,500-page plan. It is going to remake two neighborhoods with things like snow-melting roads. To build smart cities, we need lots of new technologies, such as robots and artificial intelligence (AI). These technologies will lead to safer and more efficient (效率高的) cities. However, they will also raise questions about privacy. But there is a more serious problem: Smart cities will be difficult to manage. As we know, tech products are sometimes unreliable (不可靠的). The Internet and our computers break down regularly. Tech products also age quickly. Only a few years into their lives, problems may become commoner and commoner. In smart cities, many basic systems and services, such as water services, are based on such tech products. What if they break down regularly? Can you imagine the result? New technologies in 2020 will be outdated before 2025. If we use smart technologies widely in cities, we will need to be prepared to replace them every few years. But who would want to pay this bill? The most important problem is whether having a smart city will make us better at solving urban problems. Smart technologies can’t solve problems on their own. Suppose AI programs discover a road that needs to be repaired. It still requires people to show up with asphalt (沥青) and a steamroller (蒸汽压路机), doesn’t it? As an engineer, I think smart technologies should have a place in cities. However, that place is not everywhere. For many of our urban problems, we don’t really need the latest technologies. The best of the old ideas works better. 1．The underlined word “students” refers to ________.

B．Make the company more efficient. C．Remake two neighborhoods in Toronto. D．Make public a plan for rebuilding Toronto. 3．According to the article, what do we need to build smart cities? A．The best of old ideas. B．Lots of new technologies. C．Asphalt and steamrollers. D．The internet and computers. 4．According to the author, smart cities will be ________. A．safe and convenient B．easier to manage C．not as efficient as imagined D．harmful to the environment 5．The example of a road that needs to be repaired is used to show ________. A．tech products break down regularly in smart cities B．it is difficult and expensive to manage a smart city C．many new technologies become outdated within five years D．smart technologies can’t solve problems on their own 17.（23-24九年级上·天津河西·期末）A Bright Idea Evans Wadongo was from a village of Africa. He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp (煤油灯). Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult. It was common in his village. Many children left school for this reason, so they remained poor for the rest of their lives. Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university. He continued to worry about the kerosene lamp. By this time, he realized it was not just bad for schoolchildren but for the whole family. First, it can cause illnesses such as coughs. Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food. It was difficult to come up with a different kind of lamp that was cheap and good for the environment. Yet Evans did not give up. One day, he had an idea. He could use a small solar light. Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment. Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked. He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families. An organization (组织) heard about this and provided money for him to build more solar lamps. Each lamp only cost $20. However, this was a lot of money to many villagers, who only earned (挣得) around $34 a week, so Evans made sure he kept the cost down. First, Evans used recycled materials (材料). Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free. Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, “Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.” The solar lamps made a big difference. 1．What does the word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A．Leaving school. B．Doing homework. C．Having eye problems. D．Having a bright idea. 2．How many problems about kerosene lamps are mentioned according to Paragraph 2? A．6. B．5. C．4.

The fact is that they aren’t. Some statistics (数据) from the survey done by the European Commission (欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people, 56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe. And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That’s why my people don’t think it is necessary to learn a foreign language. In Britain, students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school. In the UK schools it is common for children to start leaning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14. So why don’t students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history. To solve this situation, the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start leaning it at a much younger age. Another one is to give school children more choices. Changing the British attitude (态度) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try! 1．Which country does the writer come from? A．America. B．China. C．Britain. D．Egypt. 2．Which of the following about the British people is true? A．They are good language learners. B．62% of them speak two or more languages. C．They are famous for speaking foreign languages. D．More than half of them only speak English 3．According to the passage, students in Britain prefer to learn ________. A．science or German B．history or German C．science or history D．German or French 4．In Paragraph 4, “an option” means ________. A．选择 B．比赛 C．错误 D．对话 5．What is the best title of the passage? A．Speaking English B．Foreign Language Learning in the UK C．Schools in the UK D．Young English Learners 19.（22-23九年级上·天津津南·期末） The story is told a foreign student studying in an English-speaking country. She was reading a book by the window when she heard someone shout, “Look out!” She put her head out to see what was going on. Just then a board came flying down from above, missing her head by just a few feet. She pulled her head in quickly. Then out of danger, she carefully put her head out and looked up. There was a man mending something. “Don’t you hear me call out?” he asked. “Yes, that’s what I did,” she answered angrily. True or not, this story shows the problem with idioms (习语) in a language. Idioms are an important part of a language. But they can be a problem for a foreign student of the language. Often it is impossible to get the meaning from the words themselves. In this story, the young woman did look. But “look out” as a set phrase (固定的短语) has a different meaning. It means “take care”. When it is shouted it is a cry of warning, meaning “Danger!” A beginner is often at a loss (不知所措) when he meets many of the idioms for the first time. What does a particular  (特定的) idiom mean? In order to get the meaning, he should look it up in a dictionary. When he first uses such idioms, he is sure to run into a lot of trouble. But he shouldn’t give up trying. If he keeps at it long enough, he will learn and things will turn out well in the end. 1．When the man above shouted “look out”, he just wanted to tell people ________. A．to put their head out B．to look forward C．there was danger outside D．to look out of the window 2．Why did the young woman get angry? A．The man above told her to put her head out. B．The board from above nearly hit her head. C．The man above shouted at her. D．Her head was hit by the flying board. 3．The young woman put her head out to see ________. A．what was happening outside B．who was doing repairs above C．whether it was warning of danger D．who ran into trouble outside 4．The writer tells the story in order to show that ________. A．there are many idioms in all kinds of languages B．people may have a lot of problems with idioms in learning a foreign language C．each idiom has a lot of problems in a language D．idioms are the important part of a language though they are difficult to grasp (掌握) 5．Which of the following does not agree with the writer’s opinion? A．A foreign student of the language often feels headache when they meet idioms. B．It is common for a beginner to have lots of trouble at first. C．If we keep studying the idioms, we are sure to learn well with the help of the dictionary. D．You must know the meaning of the idioms if you know each word of them. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！10 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题04 阅读理解CD篇解题要点及专项训练 一．解题思路 （一）先读问题，弄清考查要点，以便能带着问题看文章，这样会心中有数，有的放矢。 （二）快速浏览全文，掌握全貌，注意发现与问题有关的信息，如果时间紧，至少要扫视一下起首段和尾段。再把标题和文章内容结合起来想一想，这样全文大意便清楚了。此时，不要忙于答题。 （三）细读原文，捕捉相关信息词，掌握短文细节内容。这是解题的关键，应特别注意以下几点： 1. 抓住四个"W"和一个"H"，就是边读边用铅笔做些标记，把What (事件)，When（时间），Where（地点），Why（原因），How（经过）划出来。抓住了四个“W”和一个“H”，就抓住了文章的全貌，一些直接性的问题便可解决。 2.抓住连接词及起关键作用的副词、代词、介词、插入语等。因为这些词具有因果，让步，递进，转折，指代，列举及承上启下等各种连接上下文的特殊功能。这对考生分清文章层次，辨明各种关系，了解人物心理，推断作者意图，进行逻辑推理等手段来分析难点，都具有举足轻重的作用。 3.注意领会文章的寓意。 4.根据题意，初选答案。这一步须仔细审题，领会测试要求，确定解题方法。对那些明显的，有把握的题可以断然确定，不必把其余三个答案再作推敲而浪费时间：有些略难的题，应再查阅短文（不是重读一遍），迅速找出依据，予以排除。 二．常用的解题方法有如下几种： ① 直接解题法。即从原文中直接找出答案。 ② 归纳解题法。对于不能从原文中直接找出答案的可在把握全文中心和线索的前题下进行概括、归纳得出正确答案。 ③ 综合推理法。读者需统观全文，认真分析，综合推理及至计算，最后归纳出正确答案。 题干中有"suggest, conclude, conclusion, probably, reason, because, according to“等字眼时，属于推断概括型，考查内容着眼于全篇，考生应具备一定的分析归纳，推理等逻辑思维能力。 ④ 捕捉关键词。在阅读时应该注意与问题相关的同义词，近义词，反义词或同位词等信息词来得出正确答案。 ⑤ 转换解题法。即原文这么说，而在问题和所给选项中则用另外的词去转换一种说法，但仍表示同一含义。 ⑥ 排除法。根据语言，句法结构，信息词和常识，在没有把握的选项中用排除法得出正确答案。 三．重读原文，仔细斟酌核对答案。 在解完最后一道题后，如果时间允许，再将原文读一遍；用全文的主题思想统率各思考题，研究其内在联系和逻辑关系，目的在于对所做答案进一步审查，推出未解答的题，以便减少失误。 1.（23-24九年级上·福建泉州·期末） Android phones (安卓手机) will be used to sense earthquakes around the world.

However, plastic cutlery is one of the biggest causes of pollution on our earth. While people are trying different ways to reduce plastic waste in their daily life, some companies are also taking action and among them is Biofase. Recently the company has found a new way to deal with plastic pollution—they succeeded in creating single-use cutlery with avocado seeds (鳄梨种子) that can biodegrade (生物降解) in 240 days. Biofase is based in Mexico and there is one thing they can easily get their hands on-avocados. The avocado is a fruit with hard dark green skin and a large seed inside. Mexico is the world leader in avocado growing—about 50% of the world’s avocados come from the country. As many companies there process avocados to make oil, Biofase wanted to collect avocado seeds from the companies and make use of them. But it was not so easy to find a suitable way to turn them into biodegradable cutlery. The biggest challenge (挑战) was to find a way to turn the material into a desired (期望的) shape. Everything comes to him who works hard. After studying for over a year and a half, Biofase was able to make single-use cutlery with avocado seeds. Their products look no different from plastic cutlery. Kept in a fresh and dry place, they stay usable for one year, but after that, they start to biodegrade without leaving anything behind. 1．What has Biofase done to deal with plastic pollution? A．It has encouraged people to eat out. B．It has created biodegradable cutlery. C．It has grown millions of avocado plants. D．It has ordered people to reduce plastic waste. 2．How does the writer show us that Mexico is the world leader in avocado growing? A．By listing numbers. B．By giving an example. C．By comparing facts. D．By telling a story. 3．What was Biofase’s biggest problem on its way to turn avocado seeds into biodegradable cutlery? · A．Growing avocados. B．Collecting avocado seeds. C．Finding a suitable way.

C．Biofase had difficulties getting the avocado. D．Mexico is the largest producer of the avocado. 5．What does the underlined word “they” refer to? A．the avocado seeds B．the common plastic cutlery C．the cutlery made of avocado seeds D．the plastic cutlery made of avocados 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了Biofase成功发明了含有鳄梨种子的一次性餐具，来减少环境污染。 1．细节理解题。根据“Recently the company has found a new way to deal with plastic pollution—they succeeded in creating single-use cutlery with avocado seeds (鳄梨种子) that can biodegrade (生物降解) in 240 days.”可知，该公司找到了一种处理塑料污染的新方法——他们成功地制造出了鳄梨籽一次性餐具，可以在240天内生物降解。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“Mexico is the world leader in avocado growing—about 50% of the world’s avocados come from the country”可知，墨西哥是世界鳄梨种植的领导者，世界上约50%的鳄梨来自该国，所以是通过列数字来展示墨西哥是世界鳄梨种植的领导者。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据“The biggest challenge (挑战) was to find a way to turn the material into a desired (期望的) shape.”可知，最大的挑战是找到一种方法将材料变成所需的形状。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“Mexico is the world leader in avocado growing”可知，墨西哥是世界鳄梨种植的领导者，所以墨西哥是最大的鳄梨生产国。故选D。 5．词义猜测题。根据“they succeeded in creating single-use cutlery with avocado seeds”以及“Their products look no different from plastic cutlery. Kept in a fresh and dry place, they stay usable for one year, but after that, they start to biodegrade without leaving anything behind.”可知他们的产品看起来和塑料餐具没什么不同，放在新鲜干燥的地方，它们可以使用一年，但之后，它们开始生物降解，不会留下任何东西，故此处they指代“鳄梨种子制作的餐具”。故选C。 3.（23-24九年级上·福建漳州·期末） Dr. Chip Taylor teaches biology at a university in the United States. He studies one kind of North American butterfly. During the late summer or autumn, this butterfly travels from Northern USA and Southern Canada to Mexico, covering thousands of miles. Fantastic facts about the butterfly have been drawing Dr. Taylor’s attention. In Mexico, the butterflies always return to the same small piece of forest, which is only 20 kilometers wide. Here, as many as 230 million butterflies spend the winter. They cover some trees almost completely. The butterflies that return to the south are the great-great grandchildren of the butteries that left for the north. When they begin to travel north in spring, the females lay eggs. They lay eggs on only one plant: milkweed. But in Mexico, people cut down the trees that the butterflies need to rest on because they want more land for farming. In the United States and Canada, farmers use chemicals that kill milkweed. This worries Dr. Taylor a lot. Now things are improving. Mexico has begun to protect parts of its forests. The United States and Canada have encouraged farmers to use fewer chemicals. Scientists still don’t understand how the butterflies know when to fly south. If they are even a few days late, they will freeze (冻僵). And how do all the great-great grandchildren find the same forest in Mexico every year? This is both puzzling and interesting for many scientists. There are many mysteries yet to be discovered by those interested in science. Would you like to study biology? 1．When do the butterflies lay eggs? A．In spring. B．In summer. C．In autumn. D．In winter. 2．What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．Fantastic facts about the butterflies.

Just one second later, you’ll get the story of Max, who got over many difficulties to sing among the stars. This robot writer is called ChatGPT developed by a US company Open AI. The technology chats in a conversational way, answering questions from the Internet users. It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. It’s one of the most powerful AI robots of its kind. The power of ChatGPT lies in its speed and understanding of complicated (复杂的) matters. We may spend hours researching, understanding and writing an article on the theory of evolution (进化论). But ChatGPT can produce a well-written one in seconds. Another good thing about it is that if you ask dark, harmful questions, for example, how to make weapons (武器), it will not give you an answer. However, ChatGPT also brings some problems. The materials (材料) they create are difficult to tell from those made by humans. This causes many problems, such as the copyright (版权) problem and the definition (定义) of art. It could also result in many translators and writers losing their jobs or being paid much less, as their skills are no longer something companies need. It’s too soon to say what kind of influence ChatGPT will have on our lives. Let’s hope that, if ChatCPT does become bigger and more popular, its effects are mostly positive. 1．How does the writer start the text? A．By telling a story. B．By listing numbers. C．By asking a question. D．By giving an example. 2．What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．An article. B．A song. C．A question. D．A story. 3．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

China has kept the promise to hold a green Olympics. It took more than six years to prepare for the Games. In this process, the designers put the idea of green Olympics into every part. They integrated green Olympics with the city and its surroundings (环境). Many green actions made it possible, like providing environmentally friendly smart beds, using a large number of new energy cars, supporting sporting places with 100% clean energy and reusing rain and snow water. Take making ice as an example. China didn’t use R507, a common material to make ice, because it isn’t friendly enough to the environment. Through 18 months’ hard work, China independently developed the CO₂ direct cooling technology. A net of tubes (管道) runs under the ice. High-pressure liquid (液态) CO₂ goes through them to create heat (热) exchange. The CO₂ evaporates (蒸发) under the ice surface. The evaporation takes in heat and turns water on the surface into ice. And the CO₂ goes into another circle. This technology helps to make ice better and faster. And above all, it is much greener because there’s no new CO₂ produced. Among all the 15 ice sporting places in the Winter Olympics, 7 used the CO₂ direct cooling technology to make ice. As a result, much less pollution was caused. The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is the first to truly achieve carbon neutrality (碳中和), and it has set new standards in green technologies. Some newspapers say China has made great contributions to the world's environmental protection and green development. 1．What does the underlined word “integrated” mean in Para.1? A．改进 B．创造 C．注意 D．融合 2．The main purpose of Para.3 is to show ________.

A．The CO₂ direct cooling technology may be widely used in the world. B．The high-pressure liquid CO₂ will totally take the place of R507 soon. C．No new standards in green technologies may be set after the Olympics. D．Only a few new energy cars were used at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. 4．The writer wrote the text in a ________ tone (语气). A．doubtful B．serious C．negative D．proud 5．What is the best title for the text? A．Green Technologies Used in Sports B．The Green Beijing Winter Olympics C．A New Green Ice-making Technology D．A Shared Future of Green Development 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．A 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文介绍了2022年北京冬奥会取得了巨大成功。中国兑现了举办一届绿色奥运的承诺。文中介绍了中国独立研发的二氧化碳直接冷却技术，没有产生新的二氧化碳，造成更少的污染，更环保 。 1．词义猜测题。根据“green Olympics with the city and its surroundings (环境).”可知，此处表示绿色奥运与城市及其周边环境融为一体，因此integrate表示“融合”。故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据“A net of tubes (管道) runs under the ice.

He noticed a haze (薄雾) hanging over the city and it didn’t take long for him to realize that it was the pollution we suffered. At that moment, Chiwewe felt an urge to do something about it, but didn’t know what. He was a computer engineer and knew little about environmental science. He first did research on air pollution and found that it is the world’s biggest environmental health risk. He decided to work on it in a cooperative (合作的) way. He talked to scientists, officials, and engineers who helped him develop a deeper understanding of the situation, as well as an idea to improve it. Through years of work. Chiwewe and his coworkers from South Africa and China created an online air quality decision support system (系统). Based on historical and real-time data, the system can correctly predict (预测) air pollution and air quality, which can help people make better decisions about their daily movements, as well as help officials better manage their operations. Chiwewe learned an important lesson—“a lesson we all need to take into heart if we are to work towards a better future. Even if you’re not an expert in a particular field, your outside expertise may hold the key to solving problems within that field,” he said. What if Chiwewe hadn’t worried to research the problem and do something about it? What if he had just hoped that someone, somewhere, was taking care of the matter? As Chiwewe said: “Why not just go ahead and deal with the problem as well as you can, in your own way? You may be pleasantly surprised.” 1．Tapiwa Chiwewe worked in _________.

They are parts of an artificial intelligence (AI) system named Ida. This AI system can send messages to Watson’s phone when his cows are healthy or when they are not feeling well, and it can tell how many animals are sick to the dairy farmers (奶农) and also help them pick out the sick animals. With the AI system, farmers can get the information they need from their phones instead of going to the farms to check animals every day. So, this AI system can help people spare their time to do other things. Many dairy farmers are interested in Ida. Watson is one of them. On a common morning in March, he pulled out his phone to check his Ida App. It showed that Cows #97800 and #97782 were eating less. This might mean that there was something wrong with them. However, some farmers say, “I can find out the cow that isn’t feeling great just by looking at her eyes.” Mark Rodgers is a neighbor of Watson’s. He said, “This is what I can do by myself. My experience can help me look after them better. Technology isn’t always useful.” Ida was developed by the company Connecterra. Yasir Khokhar, the company’s boss, said he came up with the idea while he was living on a farm in Holland. The system can record cow’s behaviors by studying videos of them. It now can track seven cows’ behaviors. The company is still trying to improve this technology to provide much more convenience (便利) for farmers. 1．The AI system Ida can help farmers ________. ① look after their animals            ② pick out the sick animals ③number the sick animals          ④ change animals’ behaviors A．①② B．②③ C．③④ D．②④ 2．What’s the main idea of paragraph 2?

Many countries have been looking for effective ways for a better future. In November, 2022, China started a “bamboo instead of plastic” initiative (倡议) with the International Bamboo and Rattan Organization (国际竹藤组织), which will hopefully increase green bamboo products and reduce plastic pollution. Bamboo is a renewable natural resource of great value, such as cleaning air and preventing soil loss. Unlike trees which usually need so long time to fully grow, bamboo can be harvested in 3 to 5 years. As long as it is protected well, bamboo can be cut every year and doesn’t have to be replanted. Bamboo can be used to make different kinds of products. These products can take the place of plastic products in many fields such as packaging and building. Moreover, bamboo is an innocuous material. It doesn’t cause any pollution when it has to be thrown away. China is one of the countries with the richest bamboo resources in the world. The Chinese are a pioneer (先驱) in the use of bamboo. Provinces Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan and Guizhou in the country have set up companies to develop and produce bamboo products. They cover the areas of tableware, furniture, decoration, daily necessities, etc. Many of them have been sold to different countries. China is also sharing its technologies and experience to help other countries with rich bamboo resources. It is hoped that countries will work together for global green development. 1．What is the purpose of Paragraph 1? A．To ask people to protect bamboo. B．To advise people to plant more bamboo. C．To encourage people to make good use of bamboo. D．To invite people to learn about Chinese bamboo culture. 2．How long does it take for bamboo to fully grow? A．For one year. B．For three to five years. C．For ten years. D．For more than ten years. 3．What does the underlined word “innocuous” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Harmless. B．Strong. C．Cheap. D．Light. 4．What can we get from the last paragraph? A．Few people use bamboo products in Europe. B．China hopes to set up more companies in other countries. C．China is helping other countries with rich bamboo resources. D．Guizhou and Henan have set up companies to produce bamboo. 5．Which can be the best title for the passage?

When animals migrate, they travel a long way from one part of the world to another according to the season. Many animals migrate—they do this often at the same time and to the same place each year. They move to places where conditions are better—where the weather is warmer, where there is more food and water, or where their young will be safer. People also migrate. When people migrate, they go to live in another area or country, especially in order to find work. In England, when people leave their home country in order to live in another country, we use the word “emigrate” instead of “migrate”. From “migrate” and “emigrate” come the words “migration” and “emigration”. However, if people move from their home country to another to live there evermore (永久地), the word changes from “emigrate” to “immigrate” in the English language. Then the word “immigration” is born. Isn’t word-making of the English language interesting? And can this process (过程) of finding out the relationships between words and learning them in a group or groups be a way for you to learn the language? —Based on www. youdao.com 1．Which situation can match the main idea of Paragraph 2?

Many people would think of Confucius, whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution to the education today. Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports. Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime. Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.” “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.” Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society.

Because of its special climate (气候), the United Arab Emirates (UAE) depends heavily on desalinated water (淡化水), which is bad for the environment. For the last six years Abdulla Alshehi has been working on a project to pull a 2km×500m iceberg from Antarctica, using modern technology to move it 5,500 miles to the Arabian Gulf, hoping to provide drinking water for millions of people for up to five years, as well as change the weather in this area. In 1975, French scientists came up with the plan, but the plan failed two years later, as a result of technological difficulties. Alshehi wants to pull a huge iceberg, using a belt (带子) to prevent it from falling apart during the long journey. He expects it to lose about 30% during the 10 months it would take to pull the iceberg to the Arabian Gulf, but the remaining would still leave more than enough. How to keep the iceberg from turning into water fast is another big challenge. Alshehi said, “The iceberg is expected to reach in winter, and the iceberg is as deep as 300 meters in the sea —the deeper you go, the colder the ice is.” More experiments will be done later this year, with a smaller iceberg going to be pulled for a short way by boat. If that works out well, preparations will be made to have a huge one moved. 1．The weather in the UAE is probably ________. A．very dry with little or no rain B．often rainy with strong winds C．different from that of other places D．too cold because of too much snow 2．To perform the project, the key point might be ________. A．high costs B．changes in climate C．technology support D．people’s agreement 3．What will happen if this project works successfully? A．More countries will do the same thing. B．The world climate will be influenced. C．People of the UAE would pay more for water. D．The UAE will pull another iceberg several years later. 4．What can we know about the iceberg that Alshehi will choose? A．The iceberg may break up easily on the way.

Just one second later, you’ll get the story of Max, who got over many difficulties to sing among the stars. This robot writer is called ChatGPT. US company OpenAI developed it. The technology chats in a conversational way, answering questions from the Internet user. It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. The power of ChatGPT lies in its speed and understanding of complicated (复杂的) matters. We may spend hours researching, understanding and writing an article on the theory of evolution (进化论). But ChatGPT can produce a well-written one in seconds. Another good thing about it is that if you ask dark, dangerous questions, it will not give you an answer. However, there are also some issues about ChatGPT. The texts they create are difficult to tell from those made by humans. This causes many problems, such as the copyright (版权) problem. It could also result in many translators and writers losing their jobs or being paid much less, as their skills are no longer something companies need. The tool also makes it easier for students to cheat on homework, which is bad for their development. It’s too soon to say what kind of influence ChatGPT will have on our lives.

It’s just like a classroom full of hard-working students. Take Toronto, Canada, for example. Tech company Google has made public a 1,500-page plan. It is going to remake two neighborhoods with things like snow-melting roads. To build smart cities, we need lots of new technologies, such as robots and artificial intelligence (AI). These technologies will lead to safer and more efficient (效率高的) cities. However, they will also raise questions about privacy. But there is a more serious problem: Smart cities will be difficult to manage. As we know, tech products are sometimes unreliable (不可靠的). The Internet and our computers break down regularly. Tech products also age quickly. Only a few years into their lives, problems may become commoner and commoner. In smart cities, many basic systems and services, such as water services, are based on such tech products. What if they break down regularly? Can you imagine the result? New technologies in 2020 will be outdated before 2025. If we use smart technologies widely in cities, we will need to be prepared to replace them every few years. But who would want to pay this bill? The most important problem is whether having a smart city will make us better at solving urban problems. Smart technologies can’t solve problems on their own. Suppose AI programs discover a road that needs to be repaired. It still requires people to show up with asphalt (沥青) and a steamroller (蒸汽压路机), doesn’t it? As an engineer, I think smart technologies should have a place in cities. However, that place is not everywhere. For many of our urban problems, we don’t really need the latest technologies. The best of the old ideas works better. 1．The underlined word “students” refers to ________. A．cities in Canada B．advanced technologies C．cities around the world D．people living in the cities 2．According to the article, what is Google going to do? A．Invent snow-melting roads.

A．The best of old ideas. B．Lots of new technologies. C．Asphalt and steamrollers. D．The internet and computers. 4．According to the author, smart cities will be ________. A．safe and convenient B．easier to manage C．not as efficient as imagined D．harmful to the environment 5．The example of a road that needs to be repaired is used to show ________. A．tech products break down regularly in smart cities B．it is difficult and expensive to manage a smart city C．many new technologies become outdated within five years D．smart technologies can’t solve problems on their own 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．B 4．C 5．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了建设智能城市，我们需要很多新技术以及智能城市的一些弊端。 1．词义猜测题。根据“Cities around the world are racing to become ‘smart’. It’s just like a classroom full of hard-working students.”（世界各地的城市都在竞相变得“聪明”。就像教室里挤满了勤奋的学生。）可知这里的学生指的是前句提到的“世界各地的城市”，故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“Take Toronto, Canada, for example. Tech company Google has made public a 1,500-page plan. It is going to remake two neighborhoods with things like snow-melting roads.”可知科技公司谷歌要改造多伦多的两个社区。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“To build smart cities, we need lots of new technologies”可知为了建设智能城市，我们需要很多新技术，故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据“These technologies will lead to safer and more efficient (效率高的) cities. However, they will also raise questions about privacy.…In smart cities, many basic systems and services, such as water services, are based on such tech products. What if they break down regularly? Can you imagine the result?”可知，这些科学技术将带来更安全、更高效的城市。然而，它们也会引发有关隐私的问题：智慧城市不如想象中的好管理，科技产品老化得很快，这个问题在未来几年里会越来越普遍，那么在智能城市里，如果这些科技产品发生了故障，能想象结果吗？由此可推知，智能城市并不如我们想象中得那么有效率，故选C。 5．推理判断题。根据“Smart technologies can’t solve problems on their own. Suppose AI programs discover a road that needs to be repaired. It still requires people to show up with asphalt (沥青) and a steamroller (蒸汽压路机), doesn’t it?”可知，一条需要修理的道路的例子是用来表明智能技术不能单独解决问题，故选D。 17.（23-24九年级上·天津河西·期末）A Bright Idea Evans Wadongo was from a village of Africa. He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp (煤油灯). Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult. It was common in his village. Many children left school for this reason, so they remained poor for the rest of their lives. Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university. He continued to worry about the kerosene lamp. By this time, he realized it was not just bad for schoolchildren but for the whole family. First, it can cause illnesses such as coughs. Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food. It was difficult to come up with a different kind of lamp that was cheap and good for the environment. Yet Evans did not give up. One day, he had an idea. He could use a small solar light. Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment. Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked. He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families. An organization (组织) heard about this and provided money for him to build more solar lamps. Each lamp only cost $20. However, this was a lot of money to many villagers, who only earned (挣得) around $34 a week, so Evans made sure he kept the cost down. First, Evans used recycled materials (材料). Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free. Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, “Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.” The solar lamps made a big difference. 1．What does the word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food.”可知，首先，它会导致咳嗽等疾病。此外，光线会伤害人们的眼睛。此外，它还可能导致火灾。最后，煤油很贵，所以家庭买食物的钱更少。因此，文章一共提到使用煤油灯的4个问题。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp (煤油灯). Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult.”可知，煤油灯让Evans的眼睛疼。根据“Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university.”可知，尽管学习非常艰难，Evans是个优秀的学生，并进入了大学。根据“Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked.”可知，Evans制作了第一台太阳能灯。根据“First, Evans used recycled materials. Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free.”可知，Evans使用回收材料制灯，志愿者也来制灯，最后，来自许多国家的人给他的团队捐款。因此，事件的正确顺序为d-a-c-e-f-b。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据“Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, ‘Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.’ The solar lamps made a big difference.”可知，成千上万的人有安全的照明。Julia是三个孩子的母亲，她说：“多亏了Evans，我的孩子们有了读书的灯，我也有了做饭的灯。”太阳能灯起到了很大的作用。举Julia的例子是为了说明Evans的发明创造给人们带来的影响。故选B。 5．推理判断题。通读本文可知，Evans在艰苦的学习环境下还上了大学，说明他非常勤奋，他为了解决使用煤油灯带来的一系列问题，发明创造了太阳能灯，说明他富有创造性，他想方设法降低太阳能灯的制作成本，让穷人也能用得上太阳能灯，说明他富有爱心。故选D。 18.（22-23九年级上·天津河北·期末） As an English, I can speak three languages-English, German and French, so do you think the British people are very good language learners? The fact is that they aren’t. Some statistics (数据) from the survey done by the European Commission (欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people, 56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe. And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That’s why my people don’t think it is necessary to learn a foreign language. In Britain, students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school. In the UK schools it is common for children to start leaning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14. So why don’t students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history. To solve this situation, the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start leaning it at a much younger age. Another one is to give school children more choices. Changing the British attitude (态度) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try! 1．Which country does the writer come from? A．America. B．China. C．Britain. D．Egypt. 2．Which of the following about the British people is true? A．They are good language learners. B．62% of them speak two or more languages. C．They are famous for speaking foreign languages. D．More than half of them only speak English 3．According to the passage, students in Britain prefer to learn ________. A．science or German B．history or German C．science or history D．German or French 4．In Paragraph 4, “an option” means ________. A．选择 B．比赛 C．错误 D．对话 5．What is the best title of the passage? A．Speaking English B．Foreign Language Learning in the UK C．Schools in the UK D．Young English Learners 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．C 4．A 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。一半以上的英国人只会说英语，因为很多欧洲人会说英语，所以英国人认为他们没必要学外语。英国政府希望能够改善这种状况。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“As an English, I…”可知，作者是一名英国人。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“62% of the British people only speak English.”可知，一半以上的英国人只会说英语。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history. ”可知，英国的学生更喜欢学习科学和历史。故选C。 4．词义猜测题。根据“In Britain, students are not required to learn a foreign language. ”可推知，在学校学习外语仅仅是一个选择。故an option 应意为“一个选择”。故选A。 5．标题概括题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了英国人学习外语的情况。故选B。 19.（22-23九年级上·天津津南·期末） The story is told a foreign student studying in an English-speaking country. She was reading a book by the window when she heard someone shout, “Look out!” She put her head out to see what was going on. Just then a board came flying down from above, missing her head by just a few feet. She pulled her head in quickly. Then out of danger, she carefully put her head out and looked up. There was a man mending something. “Don’t you hear me call out?” he asked. “Yes, that’s what I did,” she answered angrily. True or not, this story shows the problem with idioms (习语) in a language. Idioms are an important part of a language. But they can be a problem for a foreign student of the language. Often it is impossible to get the meaning from the words themselves. In this story, the young woman did look. But “look out” as a set phrase (固定的短语) has a different meaning. It means “take care”.

When it is shouted it is a cry of warning, meaning “Danger!””可知，“look out”的意思是“小心”，用来提醒人们有危险。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第二、三段对话““Don’t you hear me call out?” he asked.“Yes, that’s what I did,” she answered angrily.”可知，这个女人生气的点是在她的确按照那男人所说的做了，把头伸向了窗外去看，但差点被掉下里的东西砸到脑袋；主要源于女人对“look out”的误解。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据第一段“She put her head out to see what was going on.”可知，她把头伸出去看发生了什么。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。根据第四段“Idioms are an important part of a language.
