Keeping kids calm Purrble comes to the rescue for anxious kids.This toy has seven sensors.They respond to touch.Purrble’s heartbeat speeds up when you play with the toy.Then you comfort Purrble by petting 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. Listen to this MobiWAN helps you communicate by directing calls through your head.The headset speaker and microphone，created by Mobilus Labs，use bone­conduction technology.Sound vibrations(振动)are sent through the wearer’s skull(头骨).This lets workers stay in touch in noisy places，such as a construction site or a ship in a storm. Read to me Reading is a challenge for millions of people.They may struggle with poor eyesight，dyslexia，or other issues.But with computer vision and artificial intelligence，the OrCam Read can read any piece of text aloud.The OrCam Read can also read text in multiple languages. Helping hand The Mega Cyborg Hand kit was created by Thames & Kosmos.It helps kids build a robotic hand that copies the movements of a real hand.The device is made up of plastic pieces and tubes filled with water.Once assembled(组装)and slipped on，it passes force from the user’s fingers to the fingers of the robotic hand.The Mega Cyborg Hand can be adjusted to fit arms of almost any size.It easily switches from left­handed to right­handed to “claw”． 语篇解读　本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四种让世界变得更美好、更有趣的发明。 21．What can Purrble do? A．It can help people design kinds of toys. B．It can play games with children. C．It can cure people’s illness. D．It can keep children calm. D　[细节理解题。根据Keeping kids calm部分中“Purrble comes to the rescue for anxious kids.”可知，Purrble能拯救焦虑的孩子；根据“Purrble helped their kids calm down.”可知，Purrble有助于孩子冷静下来。由此可知，Purrble能够能让孩子们保持冷静，故选D项。] 22．Which invention is the most suitable for construction workers? A．Purrble. B．MobiWAN. C．The Mega Cyborg Hand. D．The OrCam Read. B　[推理判断题。根据Listen to this部分中“This lets workers stay in touch in noisy places，such as a construction site or a ship in a storm.”可知，MobiWAN可以使工人们在嘈杂的地方保持联系，比如建筑工地或暴风雨中的船只。由此可推断出，最适合建筑工人的发明是MobiWAN。] 23．In which column of a magazine can we find this article? A．Entertainment. B．Business. C．Science. D．Travel. C　[文章出处题。根据第一段中“Every year，TIME for Kids highlights inventions that are making the world better and a bit more fun.”可知，本文介绍了四种让世界变得更美好、更有趣的发明，因此最有可能出现在科学版块。] B (2021·全国甲卷) When I was 9，we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow，London on a gray January morning.Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me.Without my beloved beaches and endless blue­sky days，I felt at a loss and out of place.Until I made a discovery. Southbank，at an eastern bend in the Thames，is the center of British skateboarding，where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it.I soon made friends with the local skaters.We spoke our own language.And my favorite：Safe.Safe meant cool.It meant hello.It meant don’t worry about it.Once，when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆)，I fell onto the stones，damaging a nerve in my hand，and Toby came over，helping me up：Safe，man.Safe.A few minutes later，when I landed the trick，my friends beat their boards loud，shouting：“Safe! Safe! Safe！” And that’s what mattered—landing tricks，being a good skater. When I was 15，my family moved to Washington.I tried skateboarding there，but the locals were far less welcoming.Within a couple of years，I’d given it up. When I returned to London in 2004，I found myself wandering down to Southbank，spending hours there.I’ve traveled back several times since，most recently this past spring.The day was cold but clear；tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters.Weaving(穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards，I found my way to the beam.Then a rail­thin teenager，in a baggy white T­shirt，skidded(滑)up to the beam.He sat next to me.He seemed not to notice the man next to him.But soon I caught a few of his glances.“I was a local here 20 years ago，” I told him.Then，slowly，he began to nod his head.“Safe，man.Safe.” “Yeah.” I said.“Safe.” 语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者回想起童年时期的滑板运动而引发的人生感悟。 24．What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London? A．He felt disappointed. B．He gave up his hobby. C．He liked the weather there. D．He had disagreements with his family. A　[细节理解题。根据第一段中“Without my beloved beaches and endless blue­sky days，I felt at a loss and out of place.”可知，我刚到伦敦的时候因为没有喜爱的沙滩，不能很好的融入到新的城市，感到很沮丧和失望，故选A项。] 25．What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe！” probably mean? A．Be careful! B．Well done! C．No way! D．Don’t worry! B　[词义猜测题。根据画线词前“when I landed the trick，my friends beat their boards loud”可知，当我熟练掌握落地技巧时，我的朋友们都拍着他们的滑板。因此朋友们欢呼“Safe! Safe! Safe！”是赞扬我做得很好，故选B项。] 26．Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London? A．To join the skateboarding. B．To make new friends. C．To learn more tricks. D．To relive his childhood days. D　[推理判断题。根据第四段中“Weaving(穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards，I found my way to the beam”可知，我又回到当初我玩滑板运动的横杆前；根据“‘I was a local here 20 years ago，’I told him.”可知，我告诉男孩二十年前我就是个当地人。综合可知，作者之所以在回到伦敦后，喜欢在Southbank花费时间是因为那儿能激起作者对童年时代自己进行滑板运动的记忆，故选D项。] 27．What message does the author seem to convey in the text? A．Children should learn a second language. B．Sport is necessary for children’s health. C．Children need a sense of belonging. D．Seeing the world is a must for children. C　[推理判断题。本文讲述作者在九岁时和家人一起来到伦敦，看没有了以前喜欢的海滩，作者感到惘然，后来喜欢上了滑板运动，结交了许多好朋友，15岁时作者又随家人搬到了华盛顿，虽然还想尝试滑板运动，但当地人不大欢迎此项运动，作者不得不放弃；到最后作者再次回到伦敦看到孩子们玩起这项运动，激发了作者对自己童年时期这项运动的回忆。由此可推断出，作者是想表达他对自己人生一点感悟：孩子在童年时代需要一种归属感，故选C项。] C (2022·广西河池市高二期末) As aging population gets bigger and dementia(老年痴呆症)more common，more families are struggling with a complex question：How do you support a loved one with dementia，especially when you have a full­time job and several kids? Reg Urbanowski may have an answer to this pressing issue：ROBOTS.He and his team managed to develop a new type of robots named TP robots.Looking like stand­up vacuum cleaners attached to an iPad，they can be activated remotely via a smartphone and guided remotely by a controller app similar to the way a mouse is used on a desktop computer.All possess audio and visual communication capabilities，allowing the operator to be “in the room” to interact with Mom or Dad. He believes that caregivers and family members can use a TP robot to “look in” on people with mild dementia.He says，“TP robots provide an effective solution for minimizing caregiver burden，especially for those who have career or other out­of­home activities.” Urbanowski and his team have conducted a study that involves providing TP robots for 15 Manitoba families.These robots are programmed to provide reminders of necessary daily routine like turning off the gas，taking medicine and having dinner.They will also help ensure patients are getting the exercise they need to maintain their health and well­being. Erin Crawford，Program Director from the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba，says she has faith that TP robots will prove beneficial，particularly when it comes to reminding people with dementia to do certain things at certain times.“It means that family members that can’t be there，for whatever reason，know that those things are still happening，” she says. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Reg Urbanowski和他的团队一起研发了一种新型机器人——TP机器人，用于帮助那些全职工作者照顾患有老年痴呆症的家人。 28．What inspired Reg Urbanowski and his team to develop such robots? A．Solving a puzzle in society. B．Making caring for the elderly easier. C．Helping aging people with dementia. D．Encouraging people they love and care. A　[推理判断题。根据第一段中“As aging population gets bigger and dementia(老年痴呆症)more common”及“How do you support a loved one with dementia...”可知，人口老龄化和老年痴呆症越来越普遍，如何养活一个患有痴呆症的亲人成为一个社会难题，这激励了Reg Urbanowski和他的团队去开发这样的机器人，故选A项。] 29．Which is a function of TP robots? A．They arrange dinners for users. B．They turn on the light for users. C．They play games with users. D．They remind users to take exercise. D　[细节理解题。根据第四段中“These robots are...to maintain their health and well­being.”可知，这些机器人被编制程序来提醒人们做一些必要的日常工作，比如关掉煤气，吃药，吃晚饭。它们还将有助于确保病人得到他们需要的锻炼，以保持他们的身体健康。由此可知，TP机器人的一个功能就是提醒用户做锻炼，故选D项。] 30．What’s Erin Crawford’s attitude to the future of TP robots? A．Objective. B．Critical. C．Optimistic. D．Cautious. C　[观点态度题。根据最后一段中“she has faith that TP robots will prove...to do certain things at certain times”可知，她相信TP机器人将被证明是有益的，特别是当它提醒老年痴呆症患者在特定的时间做特定的事情时。由此可以推断出，她对机器人未来发展前景是持乐观态度的，故选C项。] 31．What does the passage mainly cover? A．The new characteristics of TP robots. B．A new type of robot for dementia patients. C．A practical way to relieve pain from dementia. D．The application of TP robots in medical community.

That’s how the special eggs come in.To build them，Williams and colleagues used a 3D printer.Then，they fixed in the smallest GPS tracking devices.As mother turtles laid their eggs under cover of night，the researchers slipped a single spy egg into each nest.Once they are covered in sand from the real ones，“it’s very difficult to tell the difference，”says Williams. Of the 101 spy eggs，25 were taken away while six of them were quickly discovered and left on the beach.The team received tracking data with the farthest egg travelling 137 kilometers inland and stopping at a local supermarket.The spy egg sent its final signal the next day from a personal house，suggesting that the research team had tracked the eggs all the way.The researchers stress that the tracker is not a way to catch local thieves：many of whom are living in poverty，but rather a tool to better understand how the deal goes. Still stopping stealing is not as simple as handing the tracking data over to the police.Across Central America，trade in sea turtle eggs can be legally ambiguous.In Costa Rica，for example，it is illegal to steal and sell sea turtle eggs but buying them is not a crime.It is not black and white.Meanwhile，local support is in need above all.“It，but not tracking with eggs，is the real meat and potatoes of conservation，” says Williams. 语篇解读　本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了大量的海龟蛋被偷偷地放到了餐桌上，海龟被列为受到威胁的物种。科学家Kim Williams为了追踪被人买走的海龟蛋，设计了可以追踪海龟蛋去向的间谍蛋。 32．What is the major threat to the existence of sea turtles? A．Unsafe GPS trackers. B．Unguarded Sea Beaches. C．The popular dishes of sea turtles. D．The over­hunt of turtle eggs. D　[细节理解题。根据第一段中“In Central America，sea turtle eggs... listed as threatened.”可知，海龟蛋的过度捕猎是海龟生存的主要威胁，故选D项。] 33．How does Williams explain her study in Paragraph 2? A．By listing scientific data. B．By distinguishing the differences. C．By clarifying the process. D．By demonstrating an expert’s statement. C　[推理判断题。根据第二段中“To build them，Williams and colleagues ...single spy egg into each nest.”可知，Williams阐述了她的研究过程，故选C项。] 34．Why did the researchers track so many spy eggs? A．To test the GPS trackers. B．To arrest the egg thieves. C．To look into the whole deal of turtle eggs. D．To perceive the current situation of sea turtles. C　[推理判断题。根据第三段中“The researchers stress that the tracker...how the deal goes.”可知，研究人员追踪了如此多的间谍蛋是为了研究整个海龟蛋的交易，故选C项。] 35．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Spy Eggs Save Endangered Sea Turtles B．Sea Turtles Draw Constant Concern C．Spy Eggs Help Locate Egg Thieves D．Advanced Technology Protects Sea Turtles A　[标题归纳题。通读全文并根据第一段中“Scientist Kim Williams was thinking...containing a GPS tracker？”可知，本文主要介绍了科学家Kim Williams为了追踪被人买走的海龟蛋，设计了可以追踪海龟蛋去向的间谍蛋，故A项(间谍蛋拯救濒危海龟)为最佳标题。] 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 (2022·哈尔滨师范大学附属中学高二期末) Did you know that about 90% of people in the world are right­handed? Although this subject is rarely discussed，life is often difficult for lefties in a right­handed world. Many cultures have not been friendly to lefties over the years. 36 In Latin，it was connected with something “unlucky” and “evil”．In Old English，“left” meant “weak”．In Islamic culture，people commonly use their left hand to clean themselves after they use the toilet，so many Muslims feel the left hand is unclean. Because of these ideas，parents often force their left­handed children to write with their right hands. 37 Studies show that forcing left­handed children to use the right hand can cause learning disorders and speech issues.Besides these challenges，lefties must use tools which aren’t made for them.Most scissors，knives，and musical instruments are designed for righties.Using these items can be difficult or even dangerous for lefties. 38 Some believe that it occurs due to gene movements in the spinal cord before birth.Another study has said that there are social reasons why few people are lefties.People may choose to become right­handed to fit in with others. Though there are challenges，being left­handed can be good in many ways. 39 This is because right­handers who play against them are not used to their moves.Some studies have also found that on average，left­handers are better at remembering things and dealing with difficult math problems. Today，society’s ideas about being left­handed have started to change.More and more people believe that being left­handed is a gift to a person instead of a curse(诅咒). 40 It’s on August 13 and called International Left­handers Day.Left­handed people gather together to celebrate.This special day lets people know that it’s OK if things aren’t all right all the time. A．Left­handers have some disadvantages. B．There’s even a special day for left­handers. C．Being a left­hander sometimes does better jobs. D．For starters，left­handers might do better in sports. E．Scientists still aren’t sure why people become left­handed. F．The word was linked to negative ideas in several languages. G．Unfortunately，this can cause problems with their development. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了左撇子的优势和劣势。世界上90%的人都是右撇子，虽然这个话题很少被讨论，但左撇子在右撇子的世界里生活往往很艰难。 36．F　[根据上文“Many cultures have not been friendly to lefties over the years.”可知，许多文化对左撇子并不友好，下文内容介绍了左撇子在拉丁语和古老英语中的不友好的含义。F项承接上下文。故选F项。] 37．G　[根据下文“Studies show that forcing...learning disorders and speech issues.”可知，研究表明，强迫左撇子儿童使用右手会导致学习障碍和语言障碍。G项引出下文。G项中的“cause problems”与下文的“cause learning disorders and speech issues”相吻合。故选G项。] 38．E　[本空为段落中心句。根据下文“Some believe that it occurs due to... why few people are lefties.”可知，一些人认为这是由于出生前脊髓中的基因运动造成的。另一项研究表明很少人是左撇子是有社会原因的。由此可知，本段介绍了变成左撇子的原因。E项符合段意。故选E项。] 39．C　[根据上文“Though there are challenges，being left­handed can be good in many ways.”可知，左撇子在很多方面有好处。C项符合文意。故选C项。] 40．B　[根据下文“It’s on August 13 and called International Left­handers Day.”可知，左撇子有专门的特殊节日。B项符合文意。故选B项。] 第二部分　语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 (2022·山东省青岛莱西市高二期末) I used to watch her playing basketball from my window，she seemed so small but 41 through the crowd of boys.Among a sea of children，she 42 from them all.

It happened when I was twelve years old.That summer holiday，I planned to earn some pocket money by delivering the newspaper in our neighborhood.And she was a customer on my paper route.She was a kind lady and every time I gave her the paper，she would give me some cookies. On a mindless Saturday afternoon，a friend and I were throwing rocks onto the roof of the old lady’s house from a quiet spot in her backyard.The purpose of our play was to observe how the rocks changed to missiles (导弹) as they rolled to the roof’s edge and shot out into the yard like comets (彗星) falling from the sky. I found myself a perfectly smooth rock and sent it for a ride.The stone was too smooth，however，so it slipped from my hand as I let it go.Seeing it headed straight for a small window on the old lady’s back porch (门廊)，we stood there，numb with fear.The sound of broken glass awoke us from the fear and the next second，we ran away from the old lady’s yard faster than any of our missiles flowing off her roof. After coming back home，I was so scared of getting caught that I dared not go out that whole afternoon.I stayed at home，glancing at my front yard nervously from time to time，feeling that lady would knock at our door at any time.But until I went to bed，what I was afraid didn’t happen.Lying in bed，I wondered whether she didn’t discover the broken window or she didn’t discover who had done it? That was a sleepless night. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Paragraph 1： The next morning，I delivered the paper to her as usual. Paragraph 2： After three weeks，I earned seven dollars and put them in an envelope. 参考范文： Paragraph 1： The next morning，I delivered the paper to her as usual.On the way to her home，so nervous was I that I could feel my heart pounding in my chest.But to my surprise，I saw the broken glass had been repaired and she didn’t mention it.When I handed her the paper，she still greeted me and gave me some cookies as usual.Holding these cookies in my hand，a feeling of guilt swept over me and I determined that I would save my paper delivery money to make up for the broken window. Paragraph 2： After three weeks，I earned seven dollars and put them in an envelope. I secretly put it through the letter box in her door.After doing this，I suddenly felt in relief.The next day，I handed the old lady her paper and thanked her for the bag of cookies.When I opened the bag，I was stunned.Inside were the seven dollars and a short note that said，“I’m proud of you.” She knew it was me.But instead of blaming and punishing me，she chose to forgive me.Even so many years later，she is still deeply engraved in my mind，who taught me a valuable lesson in my life. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
