There was once a 63-year-old woman. She was small and thin, with a slightly hunched (轻微弓起) back. She walked all the way from New York City to Miami, Florida. It was a long and difficult journey for most people. Every step took great effort (努力), but she kept going and made it.
The old woman started the journey because her life was filled with regrets. When she was young, she was busy taking care of her family. She missed (错过) many beautiful moments in life.
Her husband passed away early, and her children hardly visited her. During the lonely years, she thought about the places she wanted to visit when she was young but never did. Miami was one of those places. She and her husband had once promised to go to see the sea there together. When she turned 63, she realized that if she didn’t go now, there might never be another chance.
In Miami, a curious reporter interviewed (采访) her. Although she looked tired, her eyes were bright. The reporter wondered whether the unknown fears, tiredness and difficult environment during the hard journey had ever worried her. And how did she get the courage (勇气) to keep going on such a long journey?
The old woman smiled. “Taking one step doesn’t need courage. That’s what I did. I took one step first, then another, and then another, and here I am.”

词义猜测题。根据“When she was young, she was busy taking care of her family. She missed (错过) many beautiful moments in life.”可知,当她年轻的时候,她正忙于照顾家人。她错过了生活中许多美好的时刻。故推测划线单词“regrets”意为“遗憾”。故选B。

【6题详解】

①Can you imagine this? You get into a car on a weekend morning for a trip to the mall, but you don’t need to do anything—just enter in your destination (目的地) and off you go. When it drops you off, it drives itself back home. This is what self-driving cars can do.
②A self-driving car can feel things by its side and drive without human help. It is also called an autonomous (自动的) or driverless car. At the highest levels, a person might not need to control the car at all. But at lower levels, a person might still need to step in sometimes.
③Making self-driving cars isn’t easy. According to Wired magazine, it’s a whole system (系统) with different parts and all the parts need care. Things like changes in road networks influence (影响) it.
④However, there are also many good points. For example, these cars could cause fewer road accidents (事故). The US government said that 94 percent of accidents happened because of drivers’ mistakes. Self-driving cars can also help people with disabilities (残疾) live more freely. These cars make fewer traffic jams (交通堵塞) and stop running when they’re not needed, meaning they cause less pollution.
7. How does the writer tell us what self-driving cars can do?
A. By asking a question. B. By telling us a story. C. By giving an example.
8. How many good points are mentioned in Paragraph 4?
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4.
9. Which of the following is right according to the passage?
A. It is easy to make self-driving cars.
B. Using more self-driving cars is better for the environment.
C. Most of the traffic accidents happened because of the driverless cars.
10. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. An introduction of self-driving cars.
B. How to make self-driving cars.
C. Why people make self-driving cars.
【答案】7. C 8. C 9. B 10. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了自动驾驶技术目前发展的情况以及分析了这种技术所带来的利与弊。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“You get into a car on a weekend morning for a trip to the mall, but you don’t need to do anything—just enter in your destination (目的地) and off you go. When it drops you off, it drives itself back home. This is what self-driving cars can do.”可知,作者用了一个假设的情景,比如周末去商场,上车输入目的地,车自己行驶。故作者通过举例来告诉我们自动驾驶汽车所做的事情。故选C。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据“For example, these cars could cause fewer road accidents (事故). The US government said that 94 percent of accidents happened because of drivers’ mistakes. Self-driving cars can also help people with disabilities (残疾) live more freely. These cars make fewer traffic jams (交通堵塞) and stop running when they’re not needed, meaning they cause less pollution.”可知,本段提到了自动驾驶汽车的四个优点:减少事故、帮助残障人士、减少交通堵塞以及不用时停车,减少污染。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“These cars make fewer traffic jams (交通堵塞) and stop running when they’re not needed, meaning they cause less pollution.”可知,更多自动驾驶汽车对环境更好。故选B。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文从功能、定义、制造难度、优点等方面介绍自动驾驶汽车。故选A。

There was once a 63-year-old woman. She was small and thin, with a slightly hunched (轻微弓起) back. She walked all the way from New York City to Miami, Florida. It was a long and difficult journey for most people. Every step took great effort (努力), but she kept going and made it.
The old woman started the journey because her life was filled with regrets. When she was young she was busy taking care of her family. She missed (错过) many beautiful moments in life.
Her husband passed away early, and her children hardly visited her. During the lonely years, she thought about the places she wanted to visit when she was young but never did. Miami was one of those places. She and her husband had once promised to go to see the sea there together. When she turned 63, she realized that if she didn’t go now, there might never be another chance.
In Miami, a curious reporter interviewed (采访) her. Although she looked tired, her eyes were bright. The reporter wondered whether the unknown fears, tiredness and difficult environment during the hard journey had ever worried her. And how did she get the courage (勇气) to keep going on such a long journey?

Recently, my school started a new activity called Random Dance. When the organizer of this activity plays a K-pop song randomly (随机地), students who know the choreography (编舞) of the song will come to the center and dance together. This activity is very popular at my school, and I take part in it with my friends during lunch break every day.
I love this activity so much because it lets me exercise, especially (尤其是) after having to sit at my desk all day.
Also, because students of all age groups can join in as long as they love dancing, I have the chance to make a lot of new friends. I used to only make friends with my classmates. However, Random Dance brings together students who share the same hobby. While dancing and talking with them, I feel a sense of belonging (归属感). If I’m having some problems in life or study, I can ask them for help because they may have had the same experiences and can give me some advice.
Random Dance is a great activity to do at school, and I recommend (推荐) it to everyone who likes to dance!
