I’m more than 7ft (2.15 metres) tall，so travelling is difficult for me.I am the tallest woman in the world，due to a rare genetic condition called Weaver Syndrome(韦弗综合征)，which affects only 50 people. My childhood was not easy.I was homeschooled because of my physical condition and from as early as I can remember，I knew I looked different from other people.I felt like a child trapped inside an adult’s body.When I was six，I was already 5ft in tall.As a social norm(标准)，people expect men to be bigger and taller than women；this makes things very difficult for tall women，and I find it upsetting. I often need to adjust things due to my height.Everything has to be altered to suit me，which can be very hard，but there are positives，too.I usually buy clothes from brands specializing in plus-size clothing，then alter them.I’ll find a dress that I like and then get it turned into a top.Bottoms always have to be tailored.It gives me a chance to be creative. I’ve always been a very ambitious person.In 2014，when I was 17，I received the title for the tallest living teenager.I actually applied for it myself，as I saw the record holder at the time was shorter than me. In 2021，I was named the tallest living woman，and last year I received the titles for the largest hands，longest fingers and longest back，too.I use these titles as a platform to raise awareness about my condition and also to empower people to be themselves.I hope to inspire and encourage other people with similar conditions to know they’re not alone and that anything is possible for them. 语篇解读　本文是一篇自传，主题语境是“人与自我”。文章主要讲述了作者作为世界上最高的在世女性，积极处理身高给自己带来的困扰，乐观面对生活。 4．What makes the author’s childhood challenging?

Created by a team of scientists at the Georgia Institute of Technology，PetTrack consists of three wirelessly connected parts：a sensor that’s worn by the dog on its collar，a few ultra-wideband radio transceivers(收发器) placed around the home，and a central data collection module. As the dog walks from one place to another，it gets closer to some of the transceivers and farther away from others.These changes in distance can be detected by the system based on the amount of time that is spent between a radio signal being sent by each transceiver，and a response being received from the dog-worn sensor.By continuously analyzing how far the dog is from each transceiver，the central data collection module is able to triangulate(对……作三角测量)the animal’s present location within the house.It additionally receives data from an accelerometer in the dog’s sensor，which it analyzes to determine the animal’s current body position. The data collection module relays all this information to an Internet-connected app on the user’s smartphone，via the home’s Wi-Fi network.As a result，whenever and wherever the user wants，they can open the app to check where the dog is.They can also view a record of where it’s been and what positions it’s been in throughout the day. A single PetTrack system can monitor up to four pets at once，providing updates once a second.And unlike a camera-based system，there’s no risk of hackers taking advantage of it to watch users in their homes，or to see where their valuables are located. There’s presently no word on when PetTrack may be commercialized.For now，you can only see a demonstration of the model. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文，主题语境是“人与社会”。文章介绍了一种可以通过无线电信号跟踪宠物，随时了解宠物位置的PetTrack系统。 8．What do the underlined words “keeps tabs on” in paragraph 1 mean? A．Takes in. B．Appeals to. C．Spies on. D．Looks after. 答案　C 解析　词义猜测题。根据第一段中“While many dog owners would like to know what their pet does all day while left home alone”可知，PetTrack是用来监视宠物的，故可推断画线词的意思应为“监视，监控”。另外第四段中的“they can open the app to check where the dog is”以及第五段中的“A single PetTrack system can monitor up to four pets at once”都可提示答案。故选C。 9．What is paragraph 3 mainly about concerning the system? A．Its working principle. B．Its designer. C．Its practical application. D．Its components. 答案　A 解析　段落大意题。综合分析第三段可知，本段具体讲了无线电信号的收发和数据信息的分析等，故可推断本段主要在讲这个系统的工作原理。故选A。 10．Which is responsible for sending information continuously to users? A．A sensor on the dog’s collar. B．Radio transceivers. C．Cameras placed in the house. D．A central data collection module. 答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The data collection module relays all this information to an Internet-connected app on the user’s smartphone”可知，中心数据搜集器负责给用户发送信息。故选D。 11．What can be inferred about the system? A．It can monitor up to four pets at a time. B．It will soon replace a camera-based system. C．It has potential risk of being used by hackers.

If you start growing sunflowers from seeds，put them in room-temperature water for 2－8 hours before planting to start the growing process.Plant each seed into dirt 2.5 centimetres deep and 15 to 30 centimetres apart.Plant them after the danger of frost has passed or start indoors three weeks before your last frost date.Keep the soil wet，but not too wet，until the seeds begin to grow. Sunflower plants can be moved outdoors when the danger of frost has passed in your area.Choose a place outside that will provide the plants with at least 6－8 hours of direct sunlight each day. As the plants grow，they will develop long roots that work their way deep into the ground.So，before planting，it is important to loosen the soil.Dig at least one third of a metre down and remove any rocks. Mix a large amount of compost(堆肥) into the soil where the plant will grow.Compost provides important，lasting nutrients that will help the plants all season long.The sunflowers may not need additional nutrients if they are planted with compost.If compost is not added during the planting process，provide nutrients through a slow release，all-purpose fertilizer(肥料) one or two times during the growing season. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文，主题语境是“人与自然”。文章介绍了向日葵及其种植方面的知识。 12．What can be known about the sunflower in paragraph 1?
