In recent years,drones(无人机)have become more and more
popular.These small flying machines are everywhere,from the park to
the sky above farms.But why are they so widely used?
One of the most common uses of drones is for taking pictures and
videos.With a camera,it can fly up high and give us a whole new view
of the world.We can see beautiful sights,large cities,and even our own neighborhoods from
the air.
Drones are also useful in agriculture.Farmers can use them to look at their plants.By
checking the health of the plants from the air,they can find problems early.This helps save
water and time,making farming much easier.
What's more,drones play an important role in helping people who are in danger.When
disasters happen,like floods or earthquakes,drones can quickly get to the area.They can look
for people who are trapped (and send back pictures,which helps rescue workers plan
their work.
However,drones also bring some problems.If they are not in control,they can be
dangerous.For example,a drone might hit a plane or jet plane,it could cause a great disaster.
One terrible accident happened once when the drone pilot was flying it when it hit a tree.The
drone was falling into a neighbor's yard.A young child was playing there.Sadly,this little boy
lost his sight.
In conclusion,drones are amazing.They make our lives more convenient.But as we enjoy
the good things they bring,we also need to make rules to use them safely.
23.What does the underlined word"it"in Paragraph 2 probably refer to
A.The video.

D.The camera.
24.What can drones do according to the passage?
a.To help with farming.

D.a,c,e
25.Why does the writer use the example of the boy in Paragraph 5?

D One morning,I got up early and decided to make an apple pie for my mum.I called my
grandma for help,followed a TV program to make jam and waited excitedly.I enjoyed every
step so much that I didn't notice three hours passed by.Although the pie looked terrible and was
not that delicious,Mum ate it up and told me it was the best pie that she had ever had.For the
first time,I realized that although I didn't make the pie successfully,I really enjoyed the
process(过程).
2The process is important because it brings us something bigger than the result itself.
That is,we always have new experiences during the process,which may help us improve our
skills or form good relationships with others.If we just care about the result and do not enjoy
the process,then once the result is not so good,we will be more likely to feel disappointed and
want to give up.As a result,we will never understand the real meaning of success.
3But in this busy world,we see a lot of successful people are in competition.How can
we enjoy the process?Well,the question has the answer in itself.
4Don't always compare yourself with others.First of all,we are all different.And
success means different things to us.For some,success means being famous,while for others,
it may be health or power.Ride your own ride.
5 Slow down.You need to stop expecting immediate results in what you do and learn to
be patient.Impatience leads to unhappiness.Do it slowly,but never stop.
6 Reward (yourself.Divide the process into small steps,and give yourself a
reward after completing each of them.Rewarding yourself for small wins can go a long way.
For example,if you are in the process of losing weight,enjoy your favourite cake at some time.
27.How does the writer lead in the topic?
A.By giving an example.
B.By comparing facts.
C.By using old sayings.
D.By listing numbers.
28.Who will probably feel disappointed according to Paragraph 2?
A.Lisa spent the whole afternoon by herself with nothing to do.
B.After months of practice,Sarah finally won the dance competition.
C.Mark received a surprise gift on his birthday party from his best friends.
D.Li Lei wanted to beat Mike in the game all the time,but he couldn't do it.

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents.However,it is
not true.Communication is a problem.If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents,
don't worry about it.Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap )
31 Your parents probably won't consider your needs if you argue with them.And
you can't express yourself well if you are angry.Make sure you understand why you are
unhappy.Then think about what you want to say.If you don't think you can speak to them at
the moment,try writing a letter.
32 Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something.You can keep your
disagreement and try your best to accept each other.Bob's mother didn't agree with him about
buying a motorcycle.But they finally came to a compromise().Bob bought the
motorcycle,but only drove it on certain days.
33 Of course,your parents might refuse to compromise on something.In these
situations,it is especially important to show love and respect to them.Showing respect will
keep your relationship better.
_34 The opinions of your parents are probably different from yours.Tell your
parents what you care about and why.Understanding your opinions might help them see your
purpose in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person.It is
worth having a try.
A.Show respect to your parents.
B.Talk about your opinions.
C.Don't argue with your parents.
D.Say sorry to your parents.
E.Try to reach a compromise.
35.Do you get on well with your parents?Give your advice on how to make a good

In our daily life,should students do chores at home or not?Everything has two sides.In my
opinion,students should do chores at home.
First,doing chores may help us develop a good habit.A good habit will lead us to a better
lifestyle.Second,students these days depend on their parents too much.Third,doing chores can
help students practise more.Usually,we learn some knowledge at school but we have less time to
practise.So,doing chores is a good chance.
In a word,doing chores at home is helpful for students.(84 words)
In our daily life,should students do chores at home or not?Everything has two sides.In my
opinion,students shouldn't do chores at home.
First,students these days already have too much stress,and we don't have time to study and
do housework.either.Second.housework is a waste of time.We should spend time on schoolwork
and get good grades.What's more,it's the parents'duty to provide comfortable environment for us.
So we can study better there.
