There are challenges (挑战) to recycling clothes. But a company in France is trying to make it easier.
The company is called CETIA. It built two machines that use artificial intelligence(AI) (人工智能) to help recycle clothes and shoes. With AItechnology, one machine can find and cut off zippers and buttons (拉链和纽扣) on clothes, while the other machine can pull off soles (鞋底) from shoes easily.
This sounds simple, but no one has ever done it before. “No one was recycling soles because it was hard to separate (分离) them from shoes,” said Chloe Salmon Legagneur, director of CETIA. People had to put the shoes on an oven to melt (熔化) the glue and pull off the soles by hand. But CETIA’s machine can do it much more easily.
Some clothes can be recycled into materials for houses or roads. But most clothes do not become new clothes again. That’s because clothes have different materials that must be separated carefully by hand. That usually takes a long time and is expensive. But CETIA’s machine can do the separation faster and better than people. It can even separate clothes by color and material, making it easier to recycle them into new clothes.
Recycling clothes and shoes is important because it reduces waste and can even create new jobs. CETIA is doing amazing work by developing those recycling machines. They’re showing us that with smart thinking, we can find ways to solve big problems.
26. What is CETIA?
A. A clothing store. B. A cleaning business.
C. A technology company. D. An environmental organization.
27. What does the underlined work “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Pulling off soles from shoes.
B. Separating clothes by color and material.
C. Cutting off zippers and buttons on clothes.
D. Putting the shoes on an oven to melt the glue.
28. What does the writer think about the two machines?
A. He finds them amazing. B. He thinks they’re helpless.
C. He believes they need improvement. D. He worries about their future.
29. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
(①= Paragraph 1, ②= Paragraph 2,…)
A. ①/②③/④⑤ B. ①/②③/④/⑤
C. ①/②/③④⑤ D. ①/②/③④/⑤
30. The writer wrote the passage to ________.
A. explain the importance of recycling
B. introduce a company and its inventions
C. call for people to protect the environment
D. make a report on a company’s achievements
【答案】26. C 27. A 28. A 29. D 30. B

Everyone is born with the ability to learn. But whether or not you can do this well depends on your learning habits. Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in common.
Creating an interest in what they learn
Studies show that if you are interested in something, your brain is more active and it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. Good learners often connect what they need to learn with something interesting. For example, if they need to learn English and they like music or sports, they can listen to English songs or watch sports programs in English.
Practicing and learning from mistakes
Good learners think about what they are good at and what they need to practice more. Remember, “Use it or lose it.” Even if you learn something well, you will forget it unless (除非) you use it. “Practice makes perfect.” Good learners will keep practicing what they have learned, and they are not afraid of making mistakes. Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight. He succeeded by trying many times and learning from his mistakes.
Developing their study skills
Good learners know the best way they can study. For example, they may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps. They also look for ways to review what they have learned. They may do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student.
Asking questions
Good learners often ask questions during or after class. Knowledge comes from questioning. Learning is a lifelong journey because every day brings something new. Everything that you learn becomes a part of you and changes you, so learn wisely and learn well.
46. The passage mainly talks about ________. (不超过10词)
47. If you like sports, you can learn English by ________. (不超过5词)

根据“For example, if they need to learn English and they like music or sports, they can listen to English songs or watch sports programs in English.”可知,可以通过观看英语体育节目,by为介词,后跟动词的动名词形式。故填watching sports programs in English。
【48题详解】
根据“Even if you learn something well, you will forget it unless (除非) you use it.”可知,这句话的意思是如果你不使用一个技能,你就会忘记它。故填It means if you don’t use a skill, you will forget it.
【49题详解】
根据“they may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps. They also look for ways to review what they have learned. They may do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student.”可知,有两个学习技巧,一个是通过写下关键词或绘制思维导图来做笔记,另一个是通过每天阅读他们的笔记或向其他学生解释信息来复习,like在这里为介词,后跟动词的动名词形式。故填taking notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps/reviewing by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student。

There are challenges (挑战) to recycling clothes. But a company in France is trying to make it easier.
The company is called CETIA. It built two machines that use artificial intelligence(AI) (人工智能) to help recycle clothes and shoes. With AItechnology, one machine can find and cut off zippers and buttons (拉链和纽扣) on clothes, while the other machine can pull off soles (鞋底) from shoes easily.
This sounds simple, but no one has ever done it before. “No one was recycling soles because it was hard to separate (分离) them from shoes,” said Chloe Salmon Legagneur, director of CETIA. People had to put the shoes on an oven to melt (熔化) the glue and pull off the soles by hand. But CETIA’s machine can do it much more easily.
Some clothes can be recycled into materials for houses or roads. But most clothes do not become new clothes again. That’s because clothes have different materials that must be separated carefully by hand. That usually takes a long time and is expensive. But CETIA’s machine can do the separation faster and better than people. It can even separate clothes by color and material, making it easier to recycle them into new clothes.
Recycling clothes and shoes is important because it reduces waste and can even create new jobs. CETIA is doing amazing work by developing those recycling machines. They’re showing us that with smart thinking, we can find ways to solve big problems.
26. What is CETIA?
A. A clothing store. B. A cleaning business.
C. A technology company. D. An environmental organization.
27. What does the underlined work “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Pulling off soles from shoes.
B. Separating clothes by color and material.
C. Cutting off zippers and buttons on clothes.
D. Putting the shoes on an oven to melt the glue.
28. What does the writer think about the two machines?
A. He finds them amazing. B. He thinks they’re helpless.
C. He believes they need improvement. D. He worries about their future.
29. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
(①= Paragraph 1, ②= Paragraph 2,…)
A. ①/②③/④⑤ B. ①/②③/④/⑤
C. ①/②/③④⑤ D. ①/②/③④/⑤
30. The writer wrote the passage to ________.
A. explain the importance of recycling
B. introduce a company and its inventions
C. call for people to protect the environment
D. make a report on a company’s achievements

Everyone is born with the ability to learn. But whether or not you can do this well depends on your learning habits. Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in common.
Creating an interest in what they learn
Studies show that if you are interested in something your brain is more active and it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. Good learners often connect what they need to learn with something interesting. For example, if they need to learn English and they like music or sports, they can listen to English songs or watch sports programs in English.
Practicing and learning from mistakes
Good learners think about what they are good at and what they need to practice more. Remember, “Use it or lose it.” Even if you learn something well, you will forget it unless (除非) you use it. “Practice makes perfect.” Good learners will keep practicing what they have learned, and they are not afraid of making mistakes. Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight. He succeeded by trying many times and learning from his mistakes.
Developing their study skills
Good learners know the best way they can study. For example, they may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps. They also look for ways to review what they have learned. They may do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student.
Asking questions
Good learners often ask questions during or after class. Knowledge comes from questioning. Learning is a lifelong journey because every day brings something new. Everything that you learn becomes a part of you and changes you, so learn wisely and learn well.
46. The passage mainly talks about ________. (不超过10词)
47. If you like sports, you can learn English by ________. (不超过5词)
