According to reports, about 150 high-tech restrooms have been built in the city. Each toilet there has a sensor (传感器) that can find when a person sits on the toilet and how long he has spent sitting there. The sensors can also check whether the air inside the toilets is fresh or not and control the water level to save water. Beijing, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen are also going to use smart toilets.
“I think it’s OK with me, because I don’t think it’s a good idea to read on the toilet,” a 22- year-old young man said. However, some people aren’t very happy with the smart toilets. “I am used to spending about half an hour on the toilet. It means a restroom worker will check on me twice. This makes me nervous.” another person said.
In fact, China is trying using the artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) in different areas of life. And the smart toilet is just a new try. Our life is becoming smarter and easier.

The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals. Some are native (当地的) to Australia and can only be found there. There are more than 500 animals there, including kangaroos (袋鼠), koalas and crocodiles (鳄). They are kept in their natural environment. I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo. In zoos, most of the animals are in cages (笼子).

Although we couldn’t carry koalas, I could take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir (纪念物) of my holiday in Sydney.
The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater (淡水) and saltwater crocodiles (鳄鱼). Some of them are very big and scary (吓人的) with huge teeth! I did not want to get too close to them.
There was also a bird show. The keepers showed us different species (种类) of birds. I saw an old parrot (鹦鹉). It could “talk” and made a great impression on me.
I enjoyed the trip very much. There was so much to see.

Where do you like reading? Have you ever read on the toilet? A lot of people have the habit of reading on the toilet. But in some public restrooms in Shanghai, you won’t be able to do that. If you spend more than 15 minutes on the smart toilet there, a worker will come to check on you.
According to reports, about 150 high-tech restrooms have been built in the city. Each toilet there has a sensor (传感器) that can find when a person sits on the toilet and how long he has spent sitting there. The sensors can also check whether the air inside the toilets is fresh or not and control the water level to save water. Beijing, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen are also going to use smart toilets.
“I think it’s OK with me, because I don’t think it’s a good idea to read on the toilet,” a 22- year-old young man said. However, some people aren’t very happy with the smart toilets. “I am used to spending about half an hour on the toilet. It means a restroom worker will check on me twice. This makes me nervous.” another person said.
In fact, China is trying using the artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) in different areas of life. And the smart toilet is just a new try. Our life is becoming smarter and easier.
根据短文内容,判断句子正(T)、误(F)。
6. If we spend over 15 minutes on the smart toilets in Shanghai, a worker will come to check on us.
7. The sensors of the smart toilets can check whether the air inside is fresh or not.
8. Beijing, Guangzhou, and Hangzhou are also going to use smart toilets.
9. The 22-year-old young man likes reading on the toilet.
10 Our life is becoming smarter and easier because of AI.
(C)
What is the oldest drink in the world? The answer might be tea. Thousands of years ago, Chinese people made this special drink first. Today, it is part of people’s everyday lives not only in China, but also in the rest of the world.
In 2019, the United Nations announced (宣布) May 21 to be International Tea Day, in order to remind people of tea’s value (价值).
The cultural value of tea is in old traditions and everyday habits. In China, people use top -grade tea when treating important guests. British people are known for their afternoon tea, while in Russia, the beautiful teapot has become a symbol of Russian culture.
The more people regard drinking tea as a habit and tradition, the more important tea becomes. It is said that China produces the most tea every year. In many poor areas, people live on tea industry (工业).
To attract (吸引) more people’s attention, tea companies are trying to give the old drink a new look. They use good-looking designs (设计) to make their tea more attractive. It seems that a cup of tea connects tradition with fashion.
Tea is also of value in keeping people healthy. Tea leaves can help lower the risk of cancer and heart disease (癌症和心脏病). What’s more, tea keeps our mind clear. But doctors advise that we should not drink too much tea, or we might not fall asleep at night.
根据语篇内容选择最佳答案。
11. Where was tea invented?
A. In America. B. In England. C. In China.
12. Why does the UN make May 21 International Tea Day?
A. To make people know the importance of tea.

Recently I had a trip to Sydney with my parents. We visited the Wildlife Park.
The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals. Some are native (当地的) to Australia and can only be found there. There are more than 500 animals there, including kangaroos (袋鼠), koalas and crocodiles (鳄). They are kept in their natural environment. I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo. In zoos, most of the animals are in cages (笼子).
We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We could touch and feed them. It was very exciting to be so close to them. There were koalas there, too. They looked very cuddly (令人想拥抱的). Although we couldn’t carry koalas, I could take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir (纪念物) of my holiday in Sydney.
The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater (淡水) and saltwater crocodiles (鳄鱼). Some of them are very big and scary (吓人的) with huge teeth! I did not want to get too close to them.
There was also a bird show. The keepers showed us different species (种类) of birds. I saw an old parrot (鹦鹉). It could “talk” and made a great impression on me.
I enjoyed the trip very much. There was so much to see.
