Months ago community (社区) workers on Jiangsu Street in Shanghai fixed smart devices (装置) on taps (水龙头) for old people living alone there.
If an old person uses less than 0.01m³ of water in about 12 hours, the smart device will send an alarm to the community workers. They will then try to find out if the old person is OK.
It’s said that the community workers also plan to set up devices on the doors of old people living alone. The alarms will go off if the doors are closed for a long time.
The move has won much praise on the Internet. Many people see it as a great example of technology (科技) serving people and call for its use across the country.
Smart devices do make our lives easier and more comfortable, but something better about the Shanghai experience is not technology, but the human touch.
In fact, it’s not very difficult to fix smart devices on taps and doors. However, one needs to make sure that a worker is waiting at the other end of the system (系统) to hear the alarm. In order to make the system work well, several community workers have to be at work 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Of course, we shouldn’t forget those people coming up with the idea. It might be a better idea to give them prizes so that they can do even better to help old people.
48. Who are the smart devices on taps used to help on Jiangsu Street in Shanghai?
A. The old people trying to save water.
B. The old people living by themselves.
C. All old people trying to get help from others.
D. All old people living in communities on Jiangsu Street.
49. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The move. B. The praise. C. The Internet. D. The worker.
50. What can we learn from Paragraph 6?
A. It’s necessary to fix the smart devices for old people living alone.
B. Smart devices can certainly help to make sure old people are safe.
C Community workers find it hard to fix smart devices for old people.
D. Community workers play an important role in caring for the old people.
51. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Smart devices on taps will send an alarm if old people use too much water.
B. Smart devices on doors will send an alarm if old people forget to close doors.
C. Many people think the human touch is useless without the help of technology.
D. The writer advises that people coming up with the idea should get some prizes.
52. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. A smart way to care for the old. B. Popular smart devices on taps.
C. Lonely old people in Shanghai. D. Hard-working community workers.
【答案】48. B 49. A 50. D 51. D 52. A

Dear Jake,
Summer vacation is coming soon. It is the best time for us to read books. I have read and kept many books from childhood. Among them, my favorite book is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. It is written by Mark Twain. He wrote this book according to his own experiences.
The book is about a smart boy, Tom Sawyer, and his unusual childhood. Tom lives in a small town on the Mississippi River in America. He takes some unbelievable adventures with his friends. However, he doesn’t fear in the face of difficulties.
My father gave the book to me on my 11th birthday. I have had it for two years since then. It is special to me because it’s my birthday gift from my dear father. What’s more, I learned a lot from Tom Sawyer. His story encourages me to try hard to achieve my dream and never give up. It also tells me that we should always be honest in life. I will keep the book forever.
Yours,
Li Hua

Months ago community (社区) workers on Jiangsu Street in Shanghai fixed smart devices (装置) on taps (水龙头) for old people living alone there.
If an old person uses less than 0.01m³ of water in about 12 hours, the smart device will send an alarm to the community workers. They will then try to find out if the old person is OK.
It’s said that the community workers also plan to set up devices on the doors of old people living alone. The alarms will go off if the doors are closed for a long time.
The move has won much praise on the Internet. Many people see it as a great example of technology (科技) serving people and call for its use across the country.
Smart devices do make our lives easier and more comfortable, but something better about the Shanghai experience is not technology, but the human touch.
In fact, it’s not very difficult to fix smart devices on taps and doors. However, one needs to make sure that a worker is waiting at the other end of the system (系统) to hear the alarm. In order to make the system work well, several community workers have to be at work 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Of course we shouldn’t forget those people coming up with the idea. It might be a better idea to give them prizes so that they can do even better to help old people.
48. Who are the smart devices on taps used to help on Jiangsu Street in Shanghai?
A. The old people trying to save water.
B. The old people living by themselves.
C. All old people trying to get help from others.
D. All old people living in communities on Jiangsu Street.
49. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The move. B. The praise. C. The Internet. D. The worker.
50. What can we learn from Paragraph 6?
