He or she pushes it many miles in a lifetime. But few know or even think to ask who invented it. Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time, he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers carrying the shopping baskets hard, which led them unwilling to buy more items. One day, Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business. On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention. But, Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try. After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied. But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only people could give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired（雇佣）a group of people to push carts around his market as if they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying them. As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. As a result, more people came and bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers bought a greater number of items than before. Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s earliest model. Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did in 1937 before the coming of the shopping cart, perhaps the shopping cart is one reason. 21．Why did Sylvan N. Goldman invent the shopping cart? A．To sell shopping baskets. B．To make the shopping easier. C．To help customers to use it. D．To attract more inventors’ eyes. 22．What was Goldman’s feeling on that morning as customers began arriving? A．Happy. B．Sad. C．Excited. D．Terrible. 23．What did the real customers do after Goldman hired a group of people? A．They came and bought items. B．They copied to buy items. C．They tried to use the cart. D．They spent much money on food. B Many people have talked about whether or not computing machines can think. Can they or can’t they? Almost certainly, a machine can do any work in thinking that a person can do—if the correct way for doing the thinking work can be told exactly. Besides, many programs have been made to direct machines so that they work in very clever ways. Machines have been taught to play chess and to learn from what happens in the games so as to make their play better and better. Machines can beat many persons who play chess. Machines can translate from one language to another. They can prove statements. In geometry(几何) as taught in school. Machines can notice printed marks on paper, so that a person is no longer needed to look at the marks. Computers can be used in many ways, such as business, science, industry, and government. Computers study oil-field examinations made by airplanes; they keep record of oil sales; they study the working condition of the machines; they help in planning and producing oil; and much more. If people cannot tell exactly the correct way to do certain work in thinking, it is still a question how much of this work a machine can do. Suppose a person is “teaching” the machine and telling the machine “yes” when the machine is right, and “no” when the machine is wrong. Then the machine can keep on searching among possible ways for solving a problem-until the machine can do as well as the person, and perhaps much better. But, what is thinking? People can agree about much that is thinking, and much that is not thinking; but they can’t reach agreement because the word “think” is not a scientific word with an exact meaning. A lot of the discussion is wasted breath because the persons are using different meanings of the word “think”. People, however, have only had experience with machines that appear to think since 1944. It would be too early to say that after the next 200 years, machines will not be thinking. And to consider that machines can think gives people a big push to give to machines more and more work in thinking. 24．The underlined part in paragraph three is about computers used in ________. A．education B．industry C．sports D．government 25．What is the main idea of paragraph five? A．There is much to say about thinking. B．People discuss a lot about thinking. C．People already know what thinking is. D．There is no answer to what thinking is. 26．Which is probably the best title for the passage? A．What Is Thinking? B．Can Machines Be Taught to Think? C．Can Machines Think? D．Can Machines Beat All Checkers Players? C Anyone who walked into a restaurant during the pandemic knows that the QR code is a contact-less(无接触) way to look at a menu. But the Better Business Bureau (BBB) is warning customers that they need to be extra careful if they’re sent a digitally readable square known as a QR code. One victim told the BBB that they received a cheating letter about student loan. It contained a QR code that appeared to link to the official Studentaid. gov website. The QR code also helped the letter, which was part of a cheating, appear official. As the QR codes have become more commonly used, the BBB notes that it has received reports of scammers using the system to their advantage across the United States. “This is much like a phishing scam,” Laura, director of marketing for Eastern Michigan, said. “Just like clicking links, you have to be careful what website you’re opening on your smartphone. If you’ve never heard of the organization or the website where the QR code is supposed to go to, that’s a huge red flag.” She said the use of the QR code by scammers offers another way to steal personal information or get you to download malware(恶意软件) onto your smartphone. The scammers can now send messages to one or all people in a user’s address book, or even send a payment to where it cannot be recovered, according to the U. S. Army Major Cybercrime Unit. “In some scams, the QR code takes you to a phishing website, where you are required to enter your personal information for scammers to steal,” the BBB warned. “Other times, scammers use QR codes to payment apps or follow a bad social media account.” Scams can differ, but the scammers want you to scan the code right away. What you need to do, though, is to step back and make sure any information is legitimate(合法的) before you scan the code. Phone the friend or coworker directly to see what they might have sent, and make sure the sender wasn’t hacked. Adam Levin, an expert, says it’s a good rule of thumb to turn your smartphone off and restart it regularly. “Many forms of malware that live in your smartphone, such as spyware, depend on the device never being turned off.” Levin said. 27．What does the writer want to tell us in the first two paragraphs? A．The QR code is a contact-less way to look at a menu. B．The QR codes can help some letters appear official. C．The QR codes now open new doors for scammers. D．The QR code is a new way of payments. 28．The “red flag” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”. A．warning B．loss C．surprise D．mistake 29．The writer probably agrees that ________. A．there are some hidden dangers in QR codes B．we should keep our smartphones off at night C．the QR codes have led to phishing scamming D．we should trust every QR code from our friends 30．What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage? A．To tell us not to download malware. B．To tell us to keep away from smartphones. C．To tell us to remember to restart our smartphones regularly. D．To tell us to be careful of what we are scanning with smartphones. D Have you ever imagined being able to communicate with your pet at home and let them understand everything you say? It sounds too good to be true, but scientists have started using artificial intelligence (Al) to help communicate with animals. AI allows humans to use technology to watch and understand the sounds and signals (信号) animals use so we can try to speak back to them. Professor Karen Bakker said that AI is already helping humans communicate with bats (蝙蝠) and bees. This could change what we know about nature and our non-human relationships. Bakker said AI helped decode (解码) recordings of animals talking to one another. She said trying to communicate in their language could be better than to teach them to use human sign language. Bakker explained how scientist Yossi Yoyel had used recordings and Al to understand bats. “Bats argue over food; they communicate differently between genders (性别) they have their names, or ‘signature calls’,” she said. “But unlike human mothers raise their voices when talking to babies, mother bats lower the voice.” A computer can be trained to listen like a bat, but this can never be done with the human ear. With bees, the computer both listens and watches the bees’ body movement to understand what they are communicating. “When bees ‘speak’ to one another, they use body movements, as well as the sounds, to communicate,” Bakker said. She said scientists now know how bees say things such as “hush (be quiet)” or “stop”. Scientist Tim Landgraf even created a robot bee that entered a hive (蜂巢) and it was able to communicate to other bees when it wanted them to stop doing something or fly. So, are you looking forward to communicating with animals one day? 31．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By explaining a fact. C．By asking a question. D．By giving an example. 32．Why does the writer mention bats and bees? A．To give a direction of the future study. B．To doubt the findings scientist have reported. C．To show the achievements scientists have got. D．To change people’s opinions about the two animals. 33．What is the fifth paragraph mainly about? A．Scientists’ ways of communicating with bats. B．Scientists’ findings about communication between bats through AI. C．Differences between bats and humans in communication. D．Advantages of communicating with animals in their language. 34．Which of the following is TRUE? A．Bees mostly use sound to communicate with others. B．Bees’ body movements are very difficult to understand. C．Scientists have already understood a bit of bees’ language. D．Scientists have made a real bee to communicate with other bees. 35．Where can you probably find this text? A．In a fashion magazine. B．In a guidebook. C．In a business newspaper. D．In a science book. E 以下是一篇短文。请阅读全文并从文后的六个选项中选择五个还原到原文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 Kites were once called zhiyuan in North China and yaozi in South China. The name fengzheng came into use during the Five Dynasties. 36 He once tied a whistle (哨子) made of bamboo to the upper (上面的) part of his kite so that a zheng sound was made when he was flying the kite. The word for wind is feng, so fengzheng came into use. Who invented the kite? 37 But it’s widely believed that the earliest kite in the world was made by Mo Di who lived about 2,400 years ago. He spent three years making a “bird” with wood and successfully flew it. The “bird” was later regarded as the first kite in the world. Later, he passed his kite-making skills on to his student Lu Ban. Lu Ban improved on kite-making. 38 Kite-flying became a kind of activity probably in the Tang Dynasty. 39 Later, the paper-made kite was invented. Paper-made kites were cheaper to make and then they spread quickly among the common people. 40 The well-known British scientist, Dr. Needham, once described kites as an important invention that spread to Europe from China in his book. A．It is not easy for beginners to make a kite. B．As time went on, kites flew to different countries in the world. C．He made a kite out of bamboo and it flew into the air for as long as three days. D．There are so many different opinions that it’s difficult to decide which one is right. E．According to a history book, Li Ye, who lived in the Five Dynasties, used to make and fly kites. F．At that time, only the members of the imperial family (皇族) and people of the highest class flew kites. 四．语法填空（10分） 阅读下面短文，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。 Who made the first umbrella? Some people say the ancient Egyptians first used the umbrella to protect them 41 the heat of the sun. Some people say the Romans invented it. There are many different 42 (idea) among different people. In China, there is 43 traditional folk story which told us that Lu Ban’s wife invented the umbrella. The umbrella 44 (call) the “movable pavilion（亭子）” at that time. One day, Lu Ban and his wife were taking a walk by the West Lake. 45 (Sudden), the rain came. Both of them got wet all over. When they got home, Lu Ban’s wife felt very upset and said, “If there is something 46 can stop people from the rain, it will be 47 (wonder).” Lu Ban thought for a while and said, “That’s easy. I will build many pavilions by the lake.” His wife said, “It was a good idea, 48 they were not convenient or movable.” Was it possible 49 (make) a movable pavilion? Lu Ban’s wife thought all day and all night. One summer day, she saw some children having fun in the rain. Each of 50 (they) held a big leaf above the head to protect themselves from the rain. The next day, Lu Ban’s wife made the first rain umbrella in ancient China. 六、阅读表达(每题2分,共10分) 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 China has its first Nobel Prize in Science. And the winner, 93⁃year⁃old Chinese scientist Tu Youyou, also became the first Chinese woman to win the Nobel Prize. Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with William C. Campbell, an Irish⁃born researcher, and Satoshi Omura from Japan. Half of the prize was given to William C.Campbell and Satoshi Omura for their new treatment against illness caused by parasites(寄生虫). Tu Youyou won the other half of the prize for developing a medicine called Artemisinin(青蒿素), which can help people fight malaria(疟疾). According to the WHO(World Health Organization), millions of people have benefited from the medicine. Tu Youyou started her research in 1969 when she was chosen as the director of a government project to find anti⁃malaria medicine. She and her workmates studied ancient Chinese medicine books and many different traditional treatments. They did hundreds of experiments before they finally succeeded in getting Qinghaosu, later known as Artemisinin, in the 1970s. This medicine later became the standard and most effective treatment for malaria, according to a WHO report. Although it's a late honor for Tu and the world's recognition of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Tu's winning the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has made Chinese scientists encouraged and confident to achieve more success in the future. 51.How many scientists won the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine? 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  52.Why did Tu Youyou win the Nobel Prize? 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  53.How did Tu Youyou and her workmates do the research? 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  54What do you think of Tu Youyou?

Machines can translate from one language to another. They can prove statements. In geometry(几何) as taught in school. Machines can notice printed marks on paper, so that a person is no longer needed to look at the marks. Computers can be used in many ways, such as business, science, industry, and government. Computers study oil-field examinations made by airplanes; they keep record of oil sales; they study the working condition of the machines; they help in planning and producing oil; and much more. If people cannot tell exactly the correct way to do certain work in thinking, it is still a question how much of this work a machine can do. Suppose a person is “teaching” the machine and telling the machine “yes” when the machine is right, and “no” when the machine is wrong. Then the machine can keep on searching among possible ways for solving a problem-until the machine can do as well as the person, and perhaps much better. But, what is thinking? People can agree about much that is thinking, and much that is not thinking; but they can’t reach agreement because the word “think” is not a scientific word with an exact meaning. A lot of the discussion is wasted breath because the persons are using different meanings of the word “think”. People, however, have only had experience with machines that appear to think since 1944. It would be too early to say that after the next 200 years, machines will not be thinking. And to consider that machines can think gives people a big push to give to machines more and more work in thinking. 24．The underlined part in paragraph three is about computers used in ________. A．education B．industry C．sports D．government 25．What is the main idea of paragraph five? A．There is much to say about thinking. B．People discuss a lot about thinking. C．People already know what thinking is. D．There is no answer to what thinking is. 26．Which is probably the best title for the passage? A．What Is Thinking? B．Can Machines Be Taught to Think? C．Can Machines Think? D．Can Machines Beat All Checkers Players? 【答案】24．B 25．D 26．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了机器能不能思考的问题。 24．推理判断题。根据“Computers study oil-field examinations made by airplanes; they keep record of oil sales; they study the working condition of the machines; they help in planning and producing oil; and much more.”可知，此段主要讲了计算机在石油工业的应用。故选B。 25．段落大意题。通读全段，根据“But, what is thinking? People can agree about much that is thinking, and much that is not thinking; but they can’t reach agreement because the word “think” is not a scientific word with an exact meaning. A lot of the discussion is wasted breath because the persons are using different meanings of the word “think” .”可知，此段主要讲了“思考”是什么是没有答案的。故选D。 26．标题归纳题。通读全文，根据“Many people have talked about whether or not computing machines can think. Can they or can’t they?”可知，本文主要讲述了机器能不能思考的问题。故选C。 C Anyone who walked into a restaurant during the pandemic knows that the QR code is a contact-less(无接触) way to look at a menu. But the Better Business Bureau (BBB) is warning customers that they need to be extra careful if they’re sent a digitally readable square known as a QR code. One victim told the BBB that they received a cheating letter about student loan. It contained a QR code that appeared to link to the official Studentaid. gov website. The QR code also helped the letter, which was part of a cheating, appear official. As the QR codes have become more commonly used, the BBB notes that it has received reports of scammers using the system to their advantage across the United States. “This is much like a phishing scam,” Laura, director of marketing for Eastern Michigan, said. “Just like clicking links, you have to be careful what website you’re opening on your smartphone. If you’ve never heard of the organization or the website where the QR code is supposed to go to, that’s a huge red flag.” She said the use of the QR code by scammers offers another way to steal personal information or get you to download malware(恶意软件) onto your smartphone. The scammers can now send messages to one or all people in a user’s address book, or even send a payment to where it cannot be recovered, according to the U. S. Army Major Cybercrime Unit. “In some scams, the QR code takes you to a phishing website, where you are required to enter your personal information for scammers to steal,” the BBB warned. “Other times, scammers use QR codes to payment apps or follow a bad social media account.” Scams can differ, but the scammers want you to scan the code right away. What you need to do, though, is to step back and make sure any information is legitimate(合法的) before you scan the code. Phone the friend or coworker directly to see what they might have sent, and make sure the sender wasn’t hacked. Adam Levin, an expert, says it’s a good rule of thumb to turn your smartphone off and restart it regularly. “Many forms of malware that live in your smartphone, such as spyware, depend on the device never being turned off.” Levin said. 27．What does the writer want to tell us in the first two paragraphs? A．The QR code is a contact-less way to look at a menu. B．The QR codes can help some letters appear official. C．The QR codes now open new doors for scammers. D．The QR code is a new way of payments. 28．The “red flag” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”. A．warning B．loss C．surprise D．mistake 29．The writer probably agrees that ________. A．there are some hidden dangers in QR codes B．we should keep our smartphones off at night C．the QR codes have led to phishing scamming D．we should trust every QR code from our friends 30．What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage? A．To tell us not to download malware. B．To tell us to keep away from smartphones. C．To tell us to remember to restart our smartphones regularly. D．To tell us to be careful of what we are scanning with smartphones. 【答案】27．C 28．A 29．A 30．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了二维码存在的隐患，以及作者希望我们在用智能手机扫描内容之前要小心谨慎。 27．推理判断题。根据“But the Better Business Bureau (BBB) is warning customers that they need to be extra careful if they’re sent a digitally readable square known as a QR code.”但商业改善局(BBB)警告消费者，如果收到可读的二维码，他们需要格外小心。以及“One victim told the BBB that they received a cheating letter about student loan.”一名受害者告诉BBB，他们收到了一封关于学生贷款的欺骗信，可知前两段主要是想告诉我们二维码现在为骗子打开了新的大门。故选C。 28．词句猜测题。根据“If you’ve never heard of the organization or the website where the QR code is supposed to go to, that’s a huge red flag.” She said the use of the QR code by scammers offers another way to steal personal information or get you to download malware onto your smartphone.”可知骗子使用二维码提供了另一种窃取个人信息或让你将恶意软件下载到智能手机的方式，而且如果你从未听说过这二维码应该在的组织或网站，说明这就是一个很危险的警告，所以red flag表示“警告”，故选A。 29．推理判断题。通读全文可知本文主要在讲述使用二维码过程中可能会遭受欺骗，所以要格外小心，由此可知作者会同意A选项“二维码存在一些隐患”，故选A。 30．推理判断题。根据“Scams can differ, but the scammers want you to scan the code right away. What you need to do, though, is to step back and make sure any information is legitimate before you scan the code.”骗局可以不同，但骗子希望你立即扫描代码。不过，您需要做的是后退一步，在扫描代码之前确保所有信息都是合法的。说明作者想告诉我们要小心用智能手机扫描的内容。故选D。 D Have you ever imagined being able to communicate with your pet at home and let them understand everything you say? It sounds too good to be true, but scientists have started using artificial intelligence (Al) to help communicate with animals. AI allows humans to use technology to watch and understand the sounds and signals (信号) animals use so we can try to speak back to them. Professor Karen Bakker said that AI is already helping humans communicate with bats (蝙蝠) and bees. This could change what we know about nature and our non-human relationships. Bakker said AI helped decode (解码) recordings of animals talking to one another. She said trying to communicate in their language could be better than to teach them to use human sign language. Bakker explained how scientist Yossi Yoyel had used recordings and Al to understand bats. “Bats argue over food; they communicate differently between genders (性别) they have their names, or ‘signature calls’,” she said. “But unlike human mothers raise their voices when talking to babies, mother bats lower the voice.” A computer can be trained to listen like a bat, but this can never be done with the human ear. With bees, the computer both listens and watches the bees’ body movement to understand what they are communicating. “When bees ‘speak’ to one another, they use body movements, as well as the sounds, to communicate,” Bakker said. She said scientists now know how bees say things such as “hush (be quiet)” or “stop”. Scientist Tim Landgraf even created a robot bee that entered a hive (蜂巢) and it was able to communicate to other bees when it wanted them to stop doing something or fly. So, are you looking forward to communicating with animals one day? 31．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By explaining a fact. C．By asking a question. D．By giving an example. 32．Why does the writer mention bats and bees? A．To give a direction of the future study. B．To doubt the findings scientist have reported. C．To show the achievements scientists have got. D．To change people’s opinions about the two animals. 33．What is the fifth paragraph mainly about? A．Scientists’ ways of communicating with bats. B．Scientists’ findings about communication between bats through AI. C．Differences between bats and humans in communication. D．Advantages of communicating with animals in their language. 34．Which of the following is TRUE? A．Bees mostly use sound to communicate with others. B．Bees’ body movements are very difficult to understand. C．Scientists have already understood a bit of bees’ language. D．Scientists have made a real bee to communicate with other bees. 35．Where can you probably find this text? A．In a fashion magazine. B．In a guidebook. C．In a business newspaper. D．In a science book. 【答案】31．C 32．C 33．B 34．C 35．D 【导语】本文讲述了随着AI的发展，科学家们已经开始使用人工智能来帮助与动物交流。 31．细节理解题。根据第一句“Have you ever imagined being able to communicate with your pet at home and let them understand everything you say?”可知是疑问句，因此文章是以提问开始的。故选C。 32．推理判断题。根据第三段“AI is already helping humans communicate with bats (蝙蝠) and bees. This could change what we know about nature and our non-human relationships.”可知人工智能已经在帮助人类与蝙蝠和蜜蜂交流，讲的是AI已经取得的成就。故选C。 33．推理判断题。根据第五段“Bakker explained how scientist Yossi Yoyel had used recordings and Al to understand bats.”可知Bakker解释了科学家Yossi Yoyel是如何利用录音和Al来了解蝙蝠的，后续主要是科学家们关于蝙蝠之间通过人工智能进行交流的发现。故选B。 34．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Scientist Tim Landgraf even created a robot bee that entered a hive (蜂巢) and it was able to communicate to other bees when it wanted them to stop doing something or fly.”可知科学家Tim Landgraf创造了一只进入蜂巢的机器蜂，能够与蜜蜂交流。也就是说科学家们已经了解了一些蜜蜂的语言。故选C。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，本文讲述了随着AI的发展，科学家们已经开始使用人工智能来帮助与动物交流。因此是科学类书籍。故选D。 E 以下是一篇短文。请阅读全文并从文后的六个选项中选择五个还原到原文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 Kites were once called zhiyuan in North China and yaozi in South China. The name fengzheng came into use during the Five Dynasties. 36 He once tied a whistle (哨子) made of bamboo to the upper (上面的) part of his kite so that a zheng sound was made when he was flying the kite. The word for wind is feng, so fengzheng came into use. Who invented the kite? 37 But it’s widely believed that the earliest kite in the world was made by Mo Di who lived about 2,400 years ago. He spent three years making a “bird” with wood and successfully flew it. The “bird” was later regarded as the first kite in the world. Later, he passed his kite-making skills on to his student Lu Ban. Lu Ban improved on kite-making. 38 Kite-flying became a kind of activity probably in the Tang Dynasty. 39 Later, the paper-made kite was invented. Paper-made kites were cheaper to make and then they spread quickly among the common people. 40 The well-known British scientist, Dr. Needham, once described kites as an important invention that spread to Europe from China in his book. A．It is not easy for beginners to make a kite. B．As time went on, kites flew to different countries in the world. C．He made a kite out of bamboo and it flew into the air for as long as three days. D．There are so many different opinions that it’s difficult to decide which one is right. E．According to a history book, Li Ye, who lived in the Five Dynasties, used to make and fly kites. F．At that time, only the members of the imperial family (皇族) and people of the highest class flew kites. 【答案】36．E 37．D 38．C 39．F 40．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了风筝的起源，发展和传播。 36．根据前文“The name fengzheng came into use during the Five Dynasties.”和后文“He once tied a whistle (哨子) made of bamboo...”可知此处与某个五代的人物相关，选项E“根据史书，生活在五代的李邺，曾经制作并放飞风筝。”符合语境。故选E。 37．根据后文“But it’s widely believed that the earliest kite in the world was made by Mo Di…”可知关于谁发明了风筝并没有定论，选项D“有这么多不同的意见，很难决定哪一个是正确的。”与后文内容相呼应。故选D。 38．根据前文“Lu Ban improved on kite-making.”可知鲁班改进了风筝，风筝飞得更久了，选项C“他用竹子做了一只风筝，它在空中飞了三天之久。”符合语境。故选C。 39．根据后文“Paper-made kites were cheaper to make and then they spread quickly among the common people.”可知，此处讲放风筝的群体的变化，选项F“当时，只有皇室成员和最高阶层的人才放风筝。”符合语境。故选F。 40．根据后文“The well-known British scientist, Dr. Needham, once described kites as an important invention that spread to Europe from China in his book.”可知本段描述的是风筝传播到其他国家的事情，选项B“随着时间的推移，风筝飞到了世界上不同的国家。”符合语境。故选B。 四．语法填空（10分） 阅读下面短文，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。 Who made the first umbrella?

I will build many pavilions by the lake.” His wife said, “It was a good idea, 48 they were not convenient or movable.” Was it possible 49 (make) a movable pavilion? Lu Ban’s wife thought all day and all night. One summer day, she saw some children having fun in the rain. Each of 50 (they) held a big leaf above the head to protect themselves from the rain. The next day, Lu Ban’s wife made the first rain umbrella in ancient China. 【答案】41．from 42．ideas 43．a 44．was called 45．Suddenly 46．that 47．wonderful 48．but 49．to make 50．them 【导语】本文讲述鲁班的妻子发明第一把雨伞的故事。 41．句意：有人说古埃及人最早使用雨伞来保护自己免受太阳的高温。根据“the heat of the sun”可知句子用短语“protect sb. from…”，表达“保护某人免受……”。故填from。 42．句意：不同的人有不同的看法。这是“there be+名词”的结构，be动词与名词的单复数一致，根据“are”可知是复数概念，用复数名词“ideas”。故填ideas。 43．句意：在中国，有一个传统的民间故事，讲述鲁班的妻子发明了伞。此处表示泛指“一个传统的民间故事”，且traditional是辅音音素开头，用不定冠词“a”。故填a。 44．句意：在那时，伞被称为“可移动的亭子”。根据“at that time”可知讲述过去的事，句子是一般过去时。主语“The umbrella”是单数概念，和动词之间是被动关系，表达“被称为”用一般过去时的被动结构“was called”。故填was called。 45．句意：突然，下雨了。放在句首，有逗号与后面句子隔开，修饰整个句子，用“sudden”的副词形式“suddenly”。故填Suddenly。 46．句意：如果有什么东西能帮人们挡雨，那会很棒。“can stop people from the rain”是定语从句，从句缺主语，先行词是不定代词“something”，关系代词用that。故填that。 47．句意：如果有什么东西能帮人们挡雨，那会很棒。句子表达“棒的”，用形容词“wonderful”作表语。故填wonderful。 48．句意：这是一个好主意，但是它们都不是很便利，也不能移动。根据“a good idea”及“they were not convenient or movable”，可知前后是转折关系，用连词but表达“但是”。故填but。 49．句意：有可能制作一个可移动的亭子么？句子用“it is形容词+动词不定式”的结构，“it”是形式主语，动词不定式是真正的主语，表达“制作”用to make。故填to make。 50．句意：他们每个人举着一片大叶子在头顶来挡雨。根据“some children”可知表达“他们每个人”，介词of后用人称代词的宾格them。故填them。 六、阅读表达(每题2分,共10分) 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 China has its first Nobel Prize in Science. And the winner, 93⁃year⁃old Chinese scientist Tu Youyou, also became the first Chinese woman to win the Nobel Prize. Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with William C. Campbell, an Irish⁃born researcher, and Satoshi Omura from Japan. Half of the prize was given to William C.Campbell and Satoshi Omura for their new treatment against illness caused by parasites(寄生虫). Tu Youyou won the other half of the prize for developing a medicine called Artemisinin(青蒿素), which can help people fight malaria(疟疾). According to the WHO(World Health Organization), millions of people have benefited from the medicine. Tu Youyou started her research in 1969 when she was chosen as the director of a government project to find anti⁃malaria medicine. She and her workmates studied ancient Chinese medicine books and many different traditional treatments. They did hundreds of experiments before they finally succeeded in getting Qinghaosu, later known as Artemisinin, in the 1970s. This medicine later became the standard and most effective treatment for malaria, according to a WHO report. Although it's a late honor for Tu and the world's recognition of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Tu's winning the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has made Chinese scientists encouraged and confident to achieve more success in the future. 51.How many scientists won the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine? 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  52.Why did Tu Youyou win the Nobel Prize? 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  53.How did Tu Youyou and her workmates do the research? 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  54What do you think of Tu Youyou?

Last term, there was a speech competition in our school. I never entered a speech competition because I was afraid to speak in public. But with the encouragement from my parents, I decided to give it a try.  To prepare for the competition, I studied some speech videos carefully. Then I wrote my speech, and practiced delivering it again and again. Finally, I gave an excellent performance and won third prize. From this experience, I've learned that it's meaningful to try something new. It can help us find and develop our hidden talents and become more confident. 题目② With the development of technology, many new inventions are on the way. I enjoy using the smartphone a lot. It is small and light. I can communicate with others easily wherever I am. I can also use it to read books and search for information. It is very convenient.
