It seems like technology is everywhere. Computers and smart phones are at the center of almost everything we do. They constantly (持续地) require our attention. We text our friends with them during the day, sleep with them by our beds and check our messages as soon as we wake up.
In the future, technology will no longer be interrupting (打扰) us all the time. Instead, we will use calm technology which was first developed by scientist Mark Weiser in the1970s. In his opinion, calm technology works quietly but constantly. We know it is there, but we don’t pay much attention to it. According to Mark, the best technology should be invisible (隐形的) and let you live your life.
We already use many different types of calm technology in our everyday lives. Do you have a smoke alarm in your house? That smoke alarm is always there, checking the air for smoke and quietly keeping you safe. It only reminds you it’s there when you’ve burnt your bread! Or there may be lights in your home or school. When somebody passes in front of their sensors (传感器), the lights turn on. You don’t think about this type of technology until you see the light go on.
In the future, we can imagine our houses will use calm technology to open the curtains for us in the morning, to turn down the heat when we leave, or even to choose the best music for our mood (心情). The minute we walk through the door, our house will respond (回应) by turning on the lights and music, and perhaps even starting to prepare our dinner!
14. Which of the following is an example of calm technology?
A. A computer. B. A smart phone.
C. A smoke alarm. D. A radio.
15. What can’t we learn about calm technology from the last paragraph?
A. We can use it to wash dishes.
B. We can use it to choose the best music.
C. We can use it to turn down the heat when we leave.
D. We can use it to open the curtains in the morning.
16. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. Calm technology keeps us safe in many ways.
B. Cal technology can help you to do housework.
C. Calm technology plays an important part in schools.
D. Calm technology has been used in our daily lives.
17. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?
A. The light won’t go on unless we touch the sensor.
B. People will depend more on smart phones in the future
C. People won’t have to work because of calm technology.
D. Calm technology will make our life more convenient.
【答案】14. C 15. A 16. D 17. D

① Being confident isn’t just about what you know or think; confidence comes from how you feel in your body too. Do you know how you can become confident?
②Your standing influences how you feel. When your shoulders are bent and your head’s down, you won’t feel well. However, if you stand straight with your shoulders back and your head up, and then move your body with arms by your side and look forwards, you will feel much better.
③Your body also talks to your brain a lot. Research has found that body and brain are close to each other. When you stand with your back tall, legs apart, hands on hips and head up, your body sends the message to your mind that you are strong and confident. Think about someone you see is confident: how do they show themselves? Or think about brave or strong movie characters and imagine how they sit, stand or walk. Do the same as they do!
④Take a power pose. If you are nervous, you can take a power pose. Sit straight with both feet planted on the ground, and raise your arms above your head. Keep your head up, look straight ahead and smile. Do this for a couple of minutes. Then, you will feel more confident. Try a power pose for minutes before a test.

Wang Hongchun was a rescue worker from Beijing. She lost her life when she helped save villagers in a heavy rain.
In July 2023, Wang and other members of the Fangshan Blue Sky Rescue Team rushed to take villagers to safe places. On the way to a flooded (洪水浸没的) village, Wang and some other team members saw something was wrong with a bridge, so they stayed there to stop cars and villagers from crossing the bridge.
On the morning of 31 July 2023, the water in the river suddenly started to rise and Wang and her teammates tried to save themselves. They quickly got on a lifeboat. However, the boat overturned (倾覆) in the flood and the water swept away (冲走) all eight members on the boat.
In the end, people saved four members of the team. On 1 August, people found Wang Hongchun about 30 kilometres down the river, and another member of the team, Liu Jianmin, about 70 kilometres down the river on 3 August. But unluckily, both of them died.
Wang was one of the first members of Fang shan Blue Sky Rescue Team. She often paid her team with her money. In 2013 after she just joined the rescue team, Wang spent 4,700 yuan buying things for rescue work.

It seems like technology is everywhere. Computers and smart phones are at the center of almost everything we do. They constantly (持续地) require our attention. We text our friends with them during the day, sleep with them by our beds and check our messages as soon as we wake up.
In the future, technology will no longer be interrupting (打扰) us all the time. Instead, we will use calm technology which was first developed by scientist Mark Weiser in the1970s. In his opinion, calm technology works quietly but constantly. We know it is there, but we don’t pay much attention to it. According to Mark, the best technology should be invisible (隐形的) and let you live your life.
We already use many different types of calm technology in our everyday lives. Do you have a smoke alarm in your house? That smoke alarm is always there, checking the air for smoke and quietly keeping you safe. It only reminds you it’s there when you’ve burnt your bread! Or there may be lights in your home or school. When somebody passes in front of their sensors (传感器), the lights turn on. You don’t think about this type of technology until you see the light go on.
In the future, we can imagine our houses will use calm technology to open the curtains for us in the morning, to turn down the heat when we leave, or even to choose the best music for our mood (心情). The minute we walk through the door, our house will respond (回应) by turning on the lights and music, and perhaps even starting to prepare our dinner!
14. Which of the following is an example of calm technology?
A. A computer. B. A smart phone.
C. A smoke alarm. D. A radio.
15. What can’t we learn about calm technology from the last paragraph?
A. We can use it to wash dishes.
B. We can use it to choose the best music.
C. We can use it to turn down the heat when we leave.
D. We can use it to open the curtains in the morning.
16. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. Calm technology keeps us safe in many ways.
B. Cal technology can help you to do housework.
C. Calm technology plays an important part in schools.
D. Calm technology has been used in our daily lives.
17. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?
A. The light won’t go on unless we touch the sensor.
B. People will depend more on smart phones in the future
C. People won’t have to work because of calm technology.
D. Calm technology will make our life more convenient.
D
① Being confident isn’t just about what you know or think; confidence comes from how you feel in your body too. Do you know how you can become confident?
②Your standing influences how you feel. When your shoulders are bent and your head’s down, you won’t feel well. However, if you stand straight with your shoulders back and your head up, and then move your body with arms by your side and look forwards, you will feel much better.
③Your body also talks to your brain a lot. Research has found that body and brain are close to each other. When you stand with your back tall, legs apart, hands on hips and head up, your body sends the message to your mind that you are strong and confident. Think about someone you see is confident: how do they show themselves? Or think about brave or strong movie characters and imagine how they sit, stand or walk. Do the same as they do!
④Take a power pose. If you are nervous, you can take a power pose. Sit straight with both feet planted on the ground, and raise your arms above your head. Keep your head up, look straight ahead and smile. Do this for a couple of minutes. Then, you will feel more confident. Try a power pose for minutes before a test. Notice how it makes you feel and how your mood has changed.
18. What is the text mainly about?
A Meaning of being confident.
B. Reasons for being confident.
C. Importance of keeping confident.
D. Ways to become confident.
19. How does the writer tell the influence of standing in Paragraph 2?
A. By raising questions.
B. By making comparisons.
C. By listing numbers.
D. By drawing mind maps.
20. According to Paragraph 4, which of the following is a power pose?
A. B. C. D.
21. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?
A. B. C. D.
