考前押题11 任务型阅读 5大常考题型 题型1 阅读表达 题型4 补全句子 题型2 阅读填表 题型5 多任务混合 题型3 信息摘录 题型1 阅读表达 Passage 1 阅读下面的短文，简略回答问题 If you have a chance to learn by yourself, what might you do? Perhaps you choose to practice football skills; you would prefer to discuss something together; and you might just read. This is the most important thing of “unschooling”. It is also known as “natural learning” or “independent learning”. Know More Schooling is education that children receive at school. Home schooling is the practice of education that children learn at home with a parent or a tutor. Unschooling is an educational practice that allows children to decide how, what and where they want to learn. For this kind of educational practice, people think differently. Here are their comments (意见). Agree Disagree Independent learning teaches children to be responsible for themselves. With no teacher around, children must manage themselves, and this is a really important skill for later life. Unschooling requires parents’ support and attention. They need to create a learning space that excites children and reminds them of their daily routines. Unschooling allows children to learn what they are really interested in. If learning is enjoyable, it’s more successful. Teachers can push children to learn what they don’t enjoy but can be important later in life. Very young children learn in a natural way. Without being taught, they know colors and voices, and they learn smiling and walking. Why shouldn’t people continue to learn like this? Unschooling sounds too good to be true. It can be helpful when children are very young. But it puts too much pressure on children because they can learn difficult subjects easily only with teachers’ help. Unschooling gives children more time for sports, volunteering and museum or park visits. They may meet different people who share their interests. Unschooling happens at home, so children could have less contact with others at their age. This means they could end up becoming shy. When deciding how you are going to learn, it’s necessary to think about which one works. Choose what is suitable for you and what can have a positive influence on your growth. 1．What is the most important thing of unschooling? 2．Whose support and attention do children need when they experience unschooling? 3．How can children become successful in learning? 4．Why are children under too much pressure from unschooling? 5．If possible, what kind of educational practice would you like to choose? Why? Passage 2 Mobile phones have become a problem for some middle schools. In a middle school in Australia, students are not allowed to carry mobile phones during school hours. Mary Bluett, an official, said some schools had tried to ban (禁止) mobile phones. Some parents felt unhappy because they couldn’t get in touch with their children. Many teachers said students should not have mobile phones at school, but if there was a good reason, they could leave their phones at school office. They said there were many reasons why the students should not have mobile phones at school. For example, they were easy to lose and were a distraction (分心的事) from studies. Teachers also said that sometimes students might use phone messages to cheat during exams. Many people say that they understand why parents would want their children to have phones, but they think schools should let the students know when they can use their mobile phones. 1．When are the students not allowed to carry mobile phones in Australia? 2．How did parents feel when they couldn’t get in touch with their children? 3．Why did many teachers say that students should not have mobile phones at school? 4．Do you think that students should have mobile phones at school? Why or why not? (Write 30 words or more) Passage 3 Before moving to Xiamen in 1988, the American man William Brown had already lived in over 30 cities around the world. At that time, he had no thought that he would spend the rest of his life in Xiamen and enjoyed his life there so much. Now as a professor of management at Xiamen University, William has been teaching business studies since 1989. In 1988, William arrived in Xiamen with his family—his wife and two sons. Xiamen in the 1980s was not a nice place to live in. People burned coal and the air was polluted. Besides, the electricity was awful. William said what made him stay in Xiamen was the people there. “In the 1980s, Chinese people used food coupons (粮票) to get meat, vegetables and oil.” But foreigners had no such tickets, and we could not use cash, either,” William said. “Many Chinese teachers sold their tickets to me, not to make money, but to offer a little kind help to a foreigner.” “During such festivals as the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Chinese teachers would invite my family to their homes. Even though they were not rich, they shared everything with us. Just once a year later, I decided to live here permanently (永久地).” Looking back, William said the improvements in Xiamen were great. “I knew the difficult time would pass, but I didn’t expect that the city would improve so fast. The city now has good transportation and wonderful nightlife similar to Las Vegas.” Over the past years, William has taken his family travelling across China. They are surprised at the variety of China’s natural beauty. But in William’s eyes, nowhere is more beautiful than his hometown in China—Xiamen. Once, William made a speech in Xiamen Tourism Festival. When he was asked to say something to this city, “________” William said proudly. 1．William Brown moved to Xiamen in 1988, didn’t he? 2．What is William Brown’s job in Xiamen? 3．How could people get meat, vegetables and oil in 1980s China? 4．What made William decide to stay in Xiamen permanently? 5．How is the city Xiamen now in William Brown’s eyes? 6．What can probably be filled in the blank? Passage 4 Drones (无人驾驶飞机) can do lots of things for people, including taking pictures from the sky and watching wild animals. Now these small flying robots begin to change the way of farming. Looking for sick plants. Drones can find bacteria (细菌) that are harmful to plants in the air from a few kilometers away. Farmers can check the drones’ air samples (样本) and try to find ways to protect their plants before the bacteria get to them. Counting cows. When flying over cows, drones can follow up the cows and find out which fences need fixing. There are also special cameras on drones. They can help farmers look for animals that could harm their cows. Water watch. After watering the fields, we can often see some places may dry out faster than others. Other places might not get water at all. Drones can look over the field and make a 3D map. Using the map, farmers can find out which parts of a field are dry or need improvement. Spraying pesticide (喷洒农药). Different parts of a field might have different heights. Drones can check for this when flying above the land. Then, they change their height so that they can spray the correct amount of pesticide over each part of the field. This is more useful than traditional pesticide spraying. Drones can finish spraying a field much faster than with traditional machines. Although drones can do a lot of things for people, drones still face great challenges and disadvantages. One of the biggest disadvantages is that they are affected by the weather. 1．What can drones do to help the sick plants? 2．What are on the drones that help farmers look for animals? 3．What can the farmers do by using the 3D map? 4．How many ways of farming do the drones change according to the text? 5．Do you like drones? Why or why not? Passage 5 Kunqu Opera, one of the oldest traditional opera forms in China, was born in Kunshan, Suzhou. It is famous for its special patterns and has had a big influence on more recent forms of opera, such as Peking Opera. Kunqu Opera has faced competition from popular culture in China. And at the beginning of the 21st century, Kunqu Opera faced a decline (衰落). Kunqu Opera performers retired (退休); audiences (观众) got old and fewer young people wanted to learn and enjoy the ancient art. But in 2008, Kunqu Opera was added to Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (《人类非遗代表名录》). This not only brought Kunqu Opera to international attention, but also made Kunqu Opera popular again at home. A “youth version (青春版)” of The Peony Pavilion (《牡丹亭》), created by the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Theater and the famous writer Bai Xianyong, is considered another important move in the development of the art form. And it has been well received since it was performed for the first time around 20 years ago. With over 400 performances across China, as well as in countries such as the UK and the US, it has had about 800,000 audiences. As the play was performed at universities, Kunqu Opera saw a big increase in popularity, especially among young people. The performers in the youth version of The Peony Pavilion were all in their early 20s at that time, and up to now, 70% of the audiences have also been young people. That is a very good sign. 1．Where was Kunqu Opera born? 2．What made Kunqu Opera get international attention? 3．Who created the “youth version” of The Peony Pavilion? 4．What happened as the play was performed at universities? 5．What are the reasons for Kunqu Opera’s decline? (写出两点即可) Passage 6 Journey to the West is a famous novel of China. It describes the story of Tang Monk and his three apprentices (徒弟) going on a journey to India. Sun Wukong is one of the main characters in it. He is not just any normal monkey. He is not only very smart and brave, but also has special abilities. He can turn himself into different animals and objects, like turning into a flying bug or a giant monster to fight bad people. He can fly 108,000 Li in a single somersault (筋斗). As one of Tang Sanzang’s apprentices, Sun Wukong went with Tang Sanzang to collect scriptures (经文). On the way, they met a lot of difficulties. When Tang Sanzang was in trouble, Sun Wukong always rushed to protect him at the first time. He often helped people in need and tried his best to beat monsters to protect people. Tang Sanzang and his apprentices went through eighty-one difficulties and finally they succeeded in achieving their goal. Sun Wukong is one of China’s most long-lasting and famous literary roles. Different from traditional heroes, he breaks with tradition and fights for freedom. He keeps fighting to help the weak and never gives up when faced with difficulties. He is so optimistic (乐观的) and brave. This story, Journey to the West, tells people that only by going through hardships can they achieve happiness and success. 1．What is Sun Wukong like? 2．What did Sun Wukong do when his master was in trouble? 3．How many difficulties did Sun Wukong meet during their journey? 4．Have you read Journey to the West? What can we learn from Journey to the West? 题型2 阅读填表 Passage 1 阅读以下信息，用恰当的单词完成下面的表格，每空一词。 The folk art form, kuaiban, which has a long history, can be performed by a group or a single person. With one or two pairs of bamboo clappers—a kind of traditional Chinese musical instrument in their hands, the performers tell stories in the local dialect (方言). These stories are usually folk tales or about social life. Recently, Liu Jiming and Wan Yifu made and shared three short videos by using kuaiban which were viewed about 4 million times. As a result, Liu and Wan have gained more than 1 million followers on the Internet. They’ve created many new works to raise people’s awareness. Some of their works are about the danger of drunken driving and food safety. They also write stories to show respect to people who make contributions, such as traffic policemen. According to Liu and Wan, people can understand kuaiban pieces without difficulty. The stories told in kuaiban pieces are close to people’s daily lives. Thus, they consider that it is a fun way to introduce the Chinese folk culture through kuaiban. And what matters to them is that both young people and old people begin to know the charm of the art form, kuaiban, which may not be paid much attention to, compared to other traditional art forms. Folk art forms, like xiangsheng, pingshu and kuaiban, share something in common. These traditional art forms show the beauty and value of traditional Chinese culture so they should be known by more people and get to more areas. Luckily, through the Internet, new performers who go on sharing kuaiban pieces, like Liu and Wan are playing an active role. Hopefully these Chinese folk art forms will be alive with the times.

Then, suddenly you may have dinner with the American president (总统). But you are not dreaming. This is what might happen in the near future. With the help of virtual reality (虚拟现实) (also VR) technology, a lot of changes are taking place in our life. VR is a technology that makes an environment and allows users to see and even interact (互动) with it. Just wear a pair of VR glasses joined to (与……连接) your computer, and you can experience a lot of things but you needn’t step out of your room. “The most interesting part of VR is that it offers an immersive (身临其境的) experience,” said a leader of the Chinese entertainment company. “That’s why VR movies are very popular among users. Being a part of the story is an exciting thing.” According to a report, over 960,000 people in China have bought VR products and 83.2 percent of them have watched VR movies. VR is developing to be used in other ways. In some factories, some work is not very safe. It can help to train workers before they have to work in dangerous environments. VR also helps doctors treat (治疗) sick people with acrophobia (恐高症). Doctors make them think they are standing on the top of a tall building. This way they will get better. However, VR technology still has a long way to go. Users report feeling sick while wearing VR glasses. Maybe it could take a period of time for VR to be widely used around the world.

Passage 4 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成表格中所缺的信息。 Every school has its own set of rules to keep students disciplined (守纪律的). The rules change from one school to another. Some schools are much stricter than others. There are also some rules that look strange or funny to us. Here are some funny school rules: Japan: Most schools demand that students wear uniforms. But many Japanese schools even regulate (规定) the color of underwear! They also demand that girls’ white socks be folded in a certain way and boys’ heads be shaved (刮过的). Other Japanese schools tell students that they can not date (约会), go to the movies, leave home after sunset or play video games without permission. The USA: For safety at USA schools, students must have a pair of indoor shoes to change into at school every day. Because this makes sure students won’t fall over on the slippery floors and keeps the schools clean. Britain: Strange hairstyles are not allowed in some British schools. But they might allow students to wear certain hairstyles during the World Cup. Two students had a special design shaved into their hair during the World Cup. But they were not accepted by their school after that because the school said the rules had changed since then.

Passage 5 阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。 OK, so imagine you’ve thought of a product to make and sell—a game, or an app, or some clothes for example. You know you can sell millions of them, but first of all, you must give the product a name—a brand name. And that may not be as easy as you think. The brand name is the thing that makes your product stand out from all the others. Businesses spend a lot of time thinking about brand names; when the name has been picked, it’s very difficult to change, so companies have to get it right first time. So how do you choose a name? A brand name should be special, memorable and easy to understand. It should create some kind of emotional connection with people who buy the product—the target (目标) market. Some companies use the family name. When Henry Ford started making cars, he just called the company Ford. Some companies use wordplay. It’s a common way for naming apps, for example WhatsApp (from the English expression What’s up? As they pronounce similarly). But what do you have to be careful about? Well, you shouldn’t choose a name that may not work in certain countries or cultures. Many years ago, a car company produced a new car that they called Nova. They thought it suggested something nice and new, but in Spanish it can be read as no va (“it doesn’t go”). Not a good name for a car in Spain! These days, the choice of brand name is quite important if your product is aimed at teenage market. A teacher in an American high school said, “Teenagers won’t buy something that’s almost the same or cheaper—simply because they feel they must wear something with the right logo.” Companies know that the name isn’t everything—the product itself has to be good, of course—it is the most important part of the whole package. Theme Brand Names Importance • Brand name will make your product stand out from all the others. • It’s not 1 to change once it is picked. Requirements for a brand name • Special. •   2 . • Easy to understand. 3 to choose a brand name • Choose from family name. • Use wordplay: e.g. words that share the similar 4 . • Pay attention to cultural differences. • For teenagers, a brand name should stay away from copying other brands. Conclusion • The product itself plays the most 5 role no matter how perfect the brand name is.

In 2008, the festival became a national-level intangible cultural heritage. Different kinds of beautiful lanterns can be seen during the festival. Some small lanterns are finely made. Some large ones can be as tall as 20 meters. On the lanterns, you can find Chinese zodiac (生肖), astronauts and so on. Zigong Lanterns mix sound, light and movement in just one lantern. This sets them apart from lanterns in other places. This year, the Zigong Lantern Festival started on January 29th. It had 1.15 million visits by March 17. Zigong lantern festivals have gone to more than 500 cities in China and more than 80 countries around the world. Wan Songtao learned to make Zigong lanterns from his father. When he was a teenager, he spent every summer and winter vacations learning lantern-making. To get better at designing (设计), Wan studied fine art in college. Making a large lantern for an exhibition takes over 15 steps. One of the most important parts is the first step—designing. “We used to design the lanterns all by ourselves,” said Wan. “Now we also use AI for good ideas.” Besides AI, other technologies are also helpful. This year, Wan’s favorite work is a sundial (日晷). “The success of Zigong lanterns comes from teamwork,” he said. “The sundial is the work of over 80 Zigong lantern makers as well as a group of engineers. It took us over 4,000 hours to make it and bring it to the park.” Zigong Lanterns shape the colorful world with great ideas and cool technology. They are now a name card for our hometown, as well as our motherland,” said Wan.

The aged vinegar made there was famous far and wide and was carried by Shanxi businessmen during the Ming and Qing dynasties. The production process, which has a history of 3000 years, must go through at least five steps. The newly-made vinegar has a light color, but as the years go by, it becomes thicker and darker. The aging process (陈化过程) lasts at least one year, which is where the name “aged vinegar” comes from. To this day, the work is still mostly done by hand. Inside a local workshop in Qingxu, which is built in ancient style, workers dressed in Ming Dynasty clothing are busy performing traditional vinegar brewing tasks. “They are not actors, but real workers,” says Mr. Zhang, manager of the workshop. “With the fast development of our company, our customers have shown increasing interest in knowing how the aged vinegar is made as well as its cultural background.” What’s more, to meet high level of quality, new technology and skills have been added to the production process. In the workshop, 190 fermentation tanks (发酵罐) are lined up like soldiers. “Both fermentation and smoking (熏) tasks can be achieved without human help. We even use 5G technology for control,” Mr. Zhang adds. “While the vinegar is fermented by machine, it still goes through the traditional aging process, so its taste remains the same.” Still, in recent years, the vinegar industry in Qingxu has been made suitable for the times. While it continues its tradition, it has welcomed new ideas, such as ice cream with vinegar and tangyuan with vinegar fillings. 1 2 3 4 5 Passage 2 读下面短文，根据其内容，完成图表中所缺的信息。     Photography, a word from two Greek words—“photos” meaning light, and “graphe” meaning to write or draw, is a way of making pictures. A camera serves as a tool for taking photos by focusing reflected light from objects or scenes onto film or a digital chip which can be processed into a photo. The idea of taking photos has been around for centuries. However, it wasn’t until 1826 that the first photo was made by an inventor who covered a metal plate with light-sensitive (感光的) chemicals and allowed light onto it through a camera lens. As time went by, photographers used different materials or ways to record an imago (图像). The first photographers were inventors, scientists and artists. Using early cameras wasn’t easy for them, because it took long to take photos, and the plates had to be processed right away so that the image wouldn’t be lost. By the 1808, photographers started to use film instead. The film not only let them take many photos on one roll but also made cameras take up less space and become lighter and even cheaper than the early ones. As a result, many people bought the film cameras and took up photography as a hobby. In the 1900s, more people started taking photos, but few processed their own film because it was expensive to buy the equipment and chemicals or set up a darkroom. However, although there were several processing steps and it took a long time to get pictures, some people did process their own film and today there are still photographers who enjoy taking photos on film and process it themselves. At the end of the 20th century, digital cameras were first used. Unlike film cameras, a digital camera records the image electronically as digital information instead of recording chemically on film. People prefer using digital cameras to the film ones because they are smaller and easier to use, letting people see pictures at once which can be deleted or changed later with a computer program. Today, almost all smartphones have cameras built into them. What will the future photography be like? Perhaps time can tell. 1． 2． 3． 4． 5． Passage 3 Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle Once upon a time in Athens, there was a wise man named Socrates. He had a big belly and a bigger brain. Socrates loved to ask questions to help people think deeper. He was like a superhero with a power of making people smarter just by talking to them. One day, a young man named Plato came to Socrates. Plato was not just any young man. He was strong and could run fast, and he could have been a great athlete. But instead, he wanted to be wise like Socrates. So, he became Socrates’ student, and they would walk around the city, talking about life, the universe, and everything. Plato was a good student, and he learned a lot from Socrates. But Socrates was getting older, and one sad day, he had to leave this world. Plato was very sad, but he remembered all the things Socrates taught him. After Socrates was gone, Plato started his own school, called the Academy. It was like a big clubhouse where people could come and learn and ask questions, just like Socrates did. Plato became a great teacher, and he wrote many stories about his talks with Socrates. Now, there was another young man named Aristotle. He was a bit like Plato when he was young. Aristotle loved learning, and he came to study under Plato. He always asked questions and wanted to know how things worked. Aristotle studied under Plato for many years, and he became very smart. But he didn’t just copy what Plato said. He thought for himself and came up with new ideas about philosophy (哲学). He said that we can learn a lot by looking at the world around us, not just by thinking about it. So, Socrates taught Plato, and Plato taught Aristotle. They were like a team of wisdom passing the torch (火炬) of knowledge from one to another. 1． 2． 3． 4． 5． Passage 4 阅读下面短文，用英语完成思维导图。 Lanterns have been part of Chinese culture for centuries and play an important part in many celebrations. In ancient times, there were mainly three kinds of lanterns: Palace lantern (宫灯) It was mainly used in palaces in ancient times. When making palace lanterns, fine wood was used. The palace lanterns were covered with silk or glass. Different kinds of pictures were drawn on the covers. These lanterns were not only used as lights but also as decorations (装饰) in palaces. Gauze lantern (纱灯) Less expensive bamboo and gauze were used to cover the lantern. Red gauze was used when making them. In Chinese culture, red lanterns are symbols of happiness. So red lanterns are always hung on important festivals such as Lantern Festival, Spring Festival and National Day in parks or along main streets. In some famous Chinatowns (唐人街) abroad, you can see red lanterns all the year round. They have become a symbol of Chinese culture worldwide. Shadow-picture lantern (走马灯) It was usually used for amusement. The shape was much like that of the palace lanterns. There were two layers (层) of covers and pictures were drawn on the inside layer. When the candle was lit (被点燃), the heat caused a paper wheel inside the lantern to turn around, so that moving pictures appeared on the outside cover. Now more kinds of lanterns appear in festivals besides the traditional ones. More modern technology is used on making lanterns. The shapes of the modern lanterns have changed a lot too. 1 kinds of lanterns 2 lantern They were not only used as   3 but also as decorations.

The holiday was created to keep the art of letter writing alive in our high-technology age. For a long time, letter writing used to be the primary means (方法) of long-distance communication. However, the appearance of modern means of communication, such as e-mail and text messages, has made letter writing a less popular activity. Few people would like to take the time to sit down and write a letter carefully now. Even though new technologies have provided us with much faster ways to communicate, letter writing is still important for some reasons. Writing a letter to someone shows that we care about them a lot, because we take the time and effort (努力) to do something people seldom do these days. Handwriting is also a skill we shouldn’t give up, because writing by hand stimulates (刺激) our brain in a different way than typing (打字) and then improves our language processing and reading skills. Another reason is that writing a letter makes us have to pay attention to what we are writing. Far too often, we hurriedly send texts and e-mails without thinking about the influence our words may have on the person we are writing to. With a handwritten letter, we are forced to be more careful with the words we choose. So, how can we celebrate this day? The best way is to write a letter to someone. It could be a friend or a relative who lives miles away, or someone we have lost touch with over time. Of course, we can also learn the correct way to write a handwritten letter, or just read some famous letters. Whatever we do, we should know that letter writing is still worthwhile (值得做的). Celebrations: * Practice writing a letter to someone. * Learn to write a handwritten letter correctly. * Read some famous letters. Reminder: 5 we celebrate it, we should know letter writing is worthwhile. 1． 2． 3． 4． 5． Passage 6 根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息。 Welcome to Jinhua Science and Technology Museum!

It was started to protect the environment. By now, more than 1,000 cities around the world have had a No Car Day. The first No Car Day in China was in Chengdu in 2001. Other cities, including Taipei, Shanghai and Wuhan also support the day. In Beijing, more and more people are joining in the activity. It asks drivers to leave their cars at home for one day each month and walk or ride a bike to work. It also calls on (号召) Beijingers not to use cars on June 5 (World Environment Day). The slogan (口号) for the day is, “If we drive for one less day, we can have one more nice day.” So far, more than 200,000 drivers have shown their support. “We can’t control the weather, but we can choose not to drive,” said Wu Zonghua, a car club chairman. Beijing is trying to have 238 blue sky days this year. In the first quarter of 2012, Beijing only had 52 blue sky days. This was 11 days less than the number for the same period last year.

Chinese students used to be busier on weekends than weekdays, because they had to take so many after⁃school classes. Many of them spent a lot of time on these classes to learn exam skills. But Ma Xiaohua, a student from Grade 8 in Zhengzhou, spent a winter holiday that was quite different last year. “I felt more relaxed this holiday, because the homework is clearly much less and more enjoyable,” said Ma. Things like doing some housework, making an English video to introduce a Chinese custom, and reading aloud Home Letters by Fu Lei were part of her winter holiday homework. Ma found herself doing more practice⁃based (基于实践的) learning instead of always having her nose to workbooks. Another big difference for her was that she didn’t have after⁃school classes anymore. “This gives me more time to play badminton and get healthier,” she said. Like Ma, junior high school students welcomed the changes, as they don’t feel that stressed (有压力的). However, it doesn’t mean schoolwork isn’t important anymore. Some students feel worried about the changes. “I used to take many after⁃school classes, but now I lose instruction (指导).” said ninth⁃grader Zhou Xiuwei from Nanjing. “So I felt more stressed this holiday. I can only depend on myself.” 1．When were Chinese students busier in the past, on weekends or weekdays? They were busier in the past. 2．How did Ma Xiaohua feel in the winter holiday last year? She felt . 3．What’s Ma Xiaohua’s English video about? The English video is about . 4．What does the underlined word “they” refer to (指代)? It refers to “ ”. 5．Why did Zhou Xiuwei feel stressed in the holiday? Because he lost from after⁃school classes. Passage 3 It might be fun to use your smartphone, but be careful. Too much screen time may harm (损害) your health. A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the problem comes from the blue light that the screen gives out. Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain (劳损), headaches and dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a break every 15 minutes when your are working at a computer or using a smartphone. A new study shows that using screens too much can affect (影响) how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one hour a day, they might have lower levels of white matter in their brains. White matter is a key to the development of language and reading skills. According to a study, about 95% of the people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially young people. Doctors say that the light from those electronics at night may make you excited before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get enough sleep. So to keep healthy, it’s best for you not to use screens for long hours. 根据短文内容完成句子，每空一词。 1．Maybe fun to use your smartphone, but you must careful. 2．From the passage, we know at our smartphones for a long time may be for our health. 3．If you need to work at a or use a smartphone for an hour, you should take a. break four an hour. 4．About 95% of the people who between 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially young. 5．In to keep healthy, you’d not use screens for long. Passage 4 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成句子。 Have you ever thought about how many different things you like? You may like pets, parties, presents, foods, and even superheroes! Our world is full of so many things to like! Do you ever wonder (琢磨) why you like certain animals or why you like to do certain things? You may not think about it often, but you may learn something about yourself if you think twice. For example, why do you like to play with cats more than dogs? Why do you like going to parties and playing games? Why do you like some sweets but not others? Our personality helps form what we like and dislike. Sometimes the things we like just come naturally to us. For example, who’s your favourite superhero? You probably like that character (人物) for reasons that are all your own. You may not have even thought about why you like that superhero... you just do. As you learn more and do more, you may find out that there are more and more things you like. That’s a good thing! Do your friends like the same things that you do? Maybe you and your friends like different things. But it’s OK.

Here are some things you should try before you are 18. Learn to swim Seriously, learning to swim is so important that it can save your life. If you can’t swim well, you won’t be able to do water sports like waterskiing, surfing and diving. Even taking a boat trip will be dangerous for you. Make sure you can do it. Try at least one kind of team sports Being a good team player is an important skill in life. You can’t just think of yourself, and you have to work well with other people. Other advantages of team sports like basketball, football and baseball are that they keep you fit and strong, and they are also great fun. Teams usually have a good social life, too—you’ll go to lots of parties and make many friends. Collect something One of the best hobbies for under-18s is to collect things. You can collect different kinds of stamps, or you can collect things that make you remember what you have done, like tickets from movies that you have seen or letters from friends.

No colour lights and no colourful clothes, it’s hard to imagine such a boring world! We are lucky to live in a world with different colours. Do you know about the pyramids (金字塔) of Egypt? With the colour of gold, they shine brightly under the sun. The pyramids stand not only for ancient Egyptians’ wisdom (智慧) but also for their power. They are so fantastic that they attract visitors from all over the world. Have you ever been to the Maldives (马尔代夫)? It’s one of the most popular tourist destinations (目的地) for travellers from around the world. Everything there looks so amazing! The sky and the sea are so clear, clean and blue! Being surrounded (包围) by all of the lovely colours you see, you will feel relaxed and comfortable. And have you ever heard of Huanglong National Geopark? It is located near Jiuzhaigou, Sichuan, China. With its famous colourful ponds, it used to be one of the most beautiful places in the world. Unfortunately, three years ago, the park was destroyed (被破坏) by an earthquake. What a pity! I hope it can be restored (修复) so that people can enjoy its beauty again.

There are certain situations where online communication is necessary but others where we choose a virtual (虚拟的) conversation over a real-life one. Is online communication preferable in today’s world? To begin with, I’d like to talk about the advantages (优点) of online communication. Firstly, online communication makes it possible to communicate with people in different places around the world. This has many advantages in the workplace as meetings can take place through video conferencing (视频会议) among companies in Stockholm, San Francisco and Shanghai without the need for long and time-consuming (耗费时间的) business trips. What’s more, it provides chances for families and friends who are far away from each other to keep in touch every day. Another advantage is that online communication gives us the choice of replying quickly and allows us to edit (编辑) and improve our message. On the other hand, there are several disadvantages of online communication. Some experts are worried that having no face-to-face communication gets in the way of the development of important social skills. Also, the very nature of conversation is different in the virtual world. If short pieces of dialogue with emoticons (表情符号) replace longer direct conversation with emotions expressed on real faces, we’re running the risk of losing the art of real conversation. On balance, I believe that online communication brings us advantages in today’s society. However, we should take care not to look down on the advantages of face-to-face dialogue. 1．Online communication makes it possible to people in different places around the world. 2．Families and friends staying far away from each other have chances to through online communication. 3．How many advantages of online communication are mentioned in the passage? 4．What will happen if there is no face-to-face communication? 5．Do you like online communication? Why or why not? Passage 2 Picture this: Students pass their schoolwork through different hands, from their group leader to the class representative (课代表) and finally to the teacher. It might not sound too difficult, but sometimes it can go wrong and take a lot of time. To deal with this problem, Zhang Xirui from Shenzhen Gezhi Academy in Guangdong came up with a useful tool—a smart homework collection robot. The robot uses radio frequency identification (RFID, 射频识别) technology—a reader and a special tag (标签) that can share information without touching each other. This way, it can help find and know what it is looking for. Each student’s notebook has a special RFID tag with their name and the subject on it. Students only need to place their notebooks on the robot, and the machine “sees” the notebook, reads its tag and takes it out of the list. “Teachers can check who hasn’t turned in homework by connecting their phones with the robot through Wi-Fi,” the boy said. Now, Zhang is planning to develop a third-generation robot and hopes to use new technology to read lots of RFID tags from far away. That means if you stick a special tag on your notebook, the robot can read the information from lots of notebooks at once. Zhang believes that this is the key to how AI can make life easier for us. Zhang dreams of becoming a scientist when he grows up. “I have tried making model airplanes and other scientific and creative projects. Inventing has brought me joy and happiness,” he said. 1、2题完成句子，3-5题简略回答问题。 1．The old way of collecting homework may go wrong and . 2．A special RFID tag with their name and on it is stuck on each student’s notebook. 3．How can teachers check who hasn’t turned in homework? 4．What’s Zhang Xirui’s dream according to the text? 5．Do you like the homework collection robot invented by Zhang? Why? Passage 3 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题。 After learning about these famous women, you will know you can do a lot for society, and make a difference to the world in your lifetime. Amelia Earhart (1897—1937) Amelia Earhart was the first woman who ever flew alone across the Atlantic in 1932. She became the first woman pilot in 1935 after flying from Hawaii to California. She began her lifelong dream of flying across the world in 1937. However, her flight went missing on that trip and she was never seen again.

Its maker is AutoFlight, a company in Shanghai. It has a take-off weight of 2,000 kilograms. Also known as “air taxis”, eVTOLs can take off and land vertically and don’t need airports and runways. The five-seat “air taxi” is able to reach a speed of 200 kilometers per hour. Recently, the eVTOL has finished its first public test by flying from Shenzhen to Zhuhai, taking just 20 minutes. It took off from Shekou Container Terminal at 5 pm and landed 50 kilometers away at Jiuzhou Port. The journey takes 70 minutes by boat and more than two hours by car. Shenzhen East General Aviation (SEGA) hopes to operate the Shenzhen-Zhuhai eVTOL routes and has promised to buy 100 eVTOLs from Auto Flight. It plans to start more routes in the future. After reaching large-scale operations, the price of a one-way trip from Shenzhen to Zhuhai will be about 200 to 300 yuan. It’s worth mentioning that a boat ticket between Shekou in Shenzhen and Jiuzhou in Zhuhai costs 140 yuan and a bus ticket is about 100 yuan. According to recent reports, China plans to put electric airplanes into commercial use by 2025. And by 2035, a green airplane building system will be set up and new energy technologies will become the mainstream of development. 1．List two features (特点) of the eVTOL. 2．Do you believe the airplane building system will be more friendly to the environment?

Perhaps you choose to practice football skills; you would prefer to discuss something together; and you might just read. This is the most important thing of “unschooling”. It is also known as “natural learning” or “independent learning”. Know More Schooling is education that children receive at school. Home schooling is the practice of education that children learn at home with a parent or a tutor. Unschooling is an educational practice that allows children to decide how, what and where they want to learn. For this kind of educational practice, people think differently. Here are their comments (意见). Agree Disagree Independent learning teaches children to be responsible for themselves. With no teacher around, children must manage themselves, and this is a really important skill for later life. Unschooling requires parents’ support and attention. They need to create a learning space that excites children and reminds them of their daily routines. Unschooling allows children to learn what they are really interested in. If learning is enjoyable, it’s more successful. Teachers can push children to learn what they don’t enjoy but can be important later in life. Very young children learn in a natural way. Without being taught, they know colors and voices, and they learn smiling and walking. Why shouldn’t people continue to learn like this? Unschooling sounds too good to be true. It can be helpful when children are very young. But it puts too much pressure on children because they can learn difficult subjects easily only with teachers’ help. Unschooling gives children more time for sports, volunteering and museum or park visits. They may meet different people who share their interests. Unschooling happens at home, so children could have less contact with others at their age. This means they could end up becoming shy. When deciding how you are going to learn, it’s necessary to think about which one works. Choose what is suitable for you and what can have a positive influence on your growth. 1．What is the most important thing of unschooling? 2．Whose support and attention do children need when they experience unschooling? 3．How can children become successful in learning? 4．Why are children under too much pressure from unschooling? 5．If possible, what kind of educational practice would you like to choose? Why? 【答案】1．It allows children to decide how, what and where they want to learn. 2．Parents’ (support and attention). 3．They can learn what they are really interested in./By learning what they are really interested in./By learning something enjoyable. 4．Because they can learn difficult subjects easily only with teachers’ help. 5．Home schooling. Because it makes it possible for me to learn at my own pace./... 【导语】本文通过对比学校教育和非学校教育的特点及正反方观点，探讨了不同教育方式的优劣。 1．根据“Unschooling is an educational practice that allows children to decide how, what and where they want to learn.”可知非学校教育最重要的特点是它允许孩子们决定他们想要学习什么、如何学习以及在哪里学习。故填It allows children to decide how, what and where they want to learn. 2．根据“Unschooling requires parents’ support and attention”可知孩子需要父母的支持和关注。故填Parents’ (support and attention). 3．根据“Unschooling allows children to learn what they are really interested in. If learning is enjoyable, it’s more successful.”可知当学习充满兴趣时更容易成功。故填They can learn what they are really interested in./By learning what they are really interested in./By learning something enjoyable. 4．根据“But it puts too much pressure on children because they can learn difficult subjects easily only with teachers’ help.”可知因缺乏教师指导，学习困难科目时会感到压力。故填Because they can learn difficult subjects easily only with teachers’ help. 5．开放性作答，言之有理即可。参考答案为Home schooling. Because it makes it possible for me to learn at my own pace./... Passage 2 Mobile phones have become a problem for some middle schools. In a middle school in Australia, students are not allowed to carry mobile phones during school hours. Mary Bluett, an official, said some schools had tried to ban (禁止) mobile phones. Some parents felt unhappy because they couldn’t get in touch with their children. Many teachers said students should not have mobile phones at school, but if there was a good reason, they could leave their phones at school office. They said there were many reasons why the students should not have mobile phones at school. For example, they were easy to lose and were a distraction (分心的事) from studies. Teachers also said that sometimes students might use phone messages to cheat during exams.

Why or why not? (Write 30 words or more) 【答案】1．During school hours. 2．They felt unhappy. 3．Because they were easy to lose, were a distraction from studies and students might use phone messages to cheat during exams. 4．(答案不唯一，言之有理即可)I think students should not bring mobile phones to school. It is easy to get distracted in class and may lead to cheating. If there is an emergency, they can use the office phone. Students should focus on learning, not on phones. 【导语】本文主要围绕澳大利亚一所中学禁止学生在校期间携带手机这一规定展开，介绍了学校、家长和老师对此事的不同看法。 1．根据第一段中“In a middle school in Australia, students are not allowed to carry mobile phones during school hours.”可知，在澳大利亚，学生在上课时间不允许携带手机，故填During school hours. 2．根据第二段中“Some parents felt unhappy because they couldn’t get in touch with their children.”可知，当家长无法联系到孩子时，他们感到不开心，故填They felt unhappy. 3．根据第三段中“They said there were many reasons why the students should not have mobile phones at school.

It is easy to get distracted in class and may lead to cheating. If there is an emergency, they can use the office phone. Students should focus on learning, not on phones. Passage 3 Before moving to Xiamen in 1988, the American man William Brown had already lived in over 30 cities around the world. At that time, he had no thought that he would spend the rest of his life in Xiamen and enjoyed his life there so much. Now as a professor of management at Xiamen University, William has been teaching business studies since 1989. In 1988, William arrived in Xiamen with his family—his wife and two sons. Xiamen in the 1980s was not a nice place to live in. People burned coal and the air was polluted. Besides, the electricity was awful. William said what made him stay in Xiamen was the people there. “In the 1980s, Chinese people used food coupons (粮票) to get meat, vegetables and oil.” But foreigners had no such tickets, and we could not use cash, either,” William said. “Many Chinese teachers sold their tickets to me, not to make money, but to offer a little kind help to a foreigner.” “During such festivals as the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Chinese teachers would invite my family to their homes. Even though they were not rich, they shared everything with us. Just once a year later, I decided to live here permanently (永久地).” Looking back, William said the improvements in Xiamen were great. “I knew the difficult time would pass, but I didn’t expect that the city would improve so fast. The city now has good transportation and wonderful nightlife similar to Las Vegas.” Over the past years, William has taken his family travelling across China. They are surprised at the variety of China’s natural beauty. But in William’s eyes, nowhere is more beautiful than his hometown in China—Xiamen. Once, William made a speech in Xiamen Tourism Festival. When he was asked to say something to this city, “________” William said proudly. 1．William Brown moved to Xiamen in 1988, didn’t he? 2．What is William Brown’s job in Xiamen? 3．How could people get meat, vegetables and oil in 1980s China? 4．What made William decide to stay in Xiamen permanently? 5．How is the city Xiamen now in William Brown’s eyes? 6．What can probably be filled in the blank? 【答案】1．Yes, he did. 2．He works as a professor of management at Xiamen University and teaches there. 3．In China, people used coupons to get meat,vegetables and oil in 1980s. 4．It’s people’s kindness that made William decide to stay in Xiamen permanently. 5．It has great improvements with good transportation and wonderful nightlife. 6．I have been dreaming of Xiamen becoming an international city and I will live here forever./ I will never leave here./ I will build it with my heart. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了美国人William Brown在1988年搬到厦门后的生活经历，以及他对厦门这座城市的热爱和感受。 1．根据“Before moving to Xiamen in 1988, the American man William Brown had already lived in over 30 cities around the world.”可知，William Brown是在1988年搬到了厦门。故填Yes, he did. 2．根据“Now as a professor of management at Xiamen University, William has been teaching business studies since 1989.”可知，他的职业是厦门大学的管理学教授。故填He works as a professor of management at Xiamen University and teaches there. 3．根据“In the 1980s, Chinese people used food coupons (粮票) to get meat, vegetables and oil.”可知，当时人们通过粮票获取这些生活必需品。故填In China, people used coupons to get meat,vegetables and oil in 1980s. 4．根据“William said what made him stay in Xiamen was the people there.”和“Even though they were not rich, they shared everything with us.

Passage 4 Drones (无人驾驶飞机) can do lots of things for people, including taking pictures from the sky and watching wild animals. Now these small flying robots begin to change the way of farming. Looking for sick plants. Drones can find bacteria (细菌) that are harmful to plants in the air from a few kilometers away. Farmers can check the drones’ air samples (样本) and try to find ways to protect their plants before the bacteria get to them. Counting cows. When flying over cows, drones can follow up the cows and find out which fences need fixing. There are also special cameras on drones. They can help farmers look for animals that could harm their cows. Water watch. After watering the fields, we can often see some places may dry out faster than others. Other places might not get water at all. Drones can look over the field and make a 3D map. Using the map, farmers can find out which parts of a field are dry or need improvement. Spraying pesticide (喷洒农药). Different parts of a field might have different heights. Drones can check for this when flying above the land. Then, they change their height so that they can spray the correct amount of pesticide over each part of the field. This is more useful than traditional pesticide spraying. Drones can finish spraying a field much faster than with traditional machines. Although drones can do a lot of things for people, drones still face great challenges and disadvantages. One of the biggest disadvantages is that they are affected by the weather. 1．What can drones do to help the sick plants? 2．What are on the drones that help farmers look for animals? 3．What can the farmers do by using the 3D map? 4．How many ways of farming do the drones change according to the text? 5．Do you like drones? Why or why not? 【答案】1．Drones can find bacteria that are harmful to plants in the air from a few kilometers away. 2．Special cameras. 3．Farmers can find out which parts of a field are dry or need improvement. 4．Four. 5．Yes. Because drones can help do lots of things for people./No, because drones still face great challenges and disadvantages. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了无人机在农业领域的多种应用及其优势。 1．根据“Drones can find bacteria that are harmful to plants in the air from a few kilometers away.”可知，无人机可以检测到几公里外对植物有害的细菌。故填Drones can find bacteria that are harmful to plants in the air from a few kilometers away. 2．根据“There are also special cameras on drones.

Because drones can help do lots of things for people./No, because drones still face great challenges and disadvantages. Passage 5 Kunqu Opera, one of the oldest traditional opera forms in China, was born in Kunshan, Suzhou. It is famous for its special patterns and has had a big influence on more recent forms of opera, such as Peking Opera. Kunqu Opera has faced competition from popular culture in China. And at the beginning of the 21st century, Kunqu Opera faced a decline (衰落). Kunqu Opera performers retired (退休); audiences (观众) got old and fewer young people wanted to learn and enjoy the ancient art. But in 2008, Kunqu Opera was added to Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (《人类非遗代表名录》). This not only brought Kunqu Opera to international attention, but also made Kunqu Opera popular again at home. A “youth version (青春版)” of The Peony Pavilion (《牡丹亭》), created by the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Theater and the famous writer Bai Xianyong, is considered another important move in the development of the art form. And it has been well received since it was performed for the first time around 20 years ago. With over 400 performances across China, as well as in countries such as the UK and the US, it has had about 800,000 audiences. As the play was performed at universities, Kunqu Opera saw a big increase in popularity, especially among young people. The performers in the youth version of The Peony Pavilion were all in their early 20s at that time, and up to now, 70% of the audiences have also been young people. That is a very good sign. 1．Where was Kunqu Opera born? 2．What made Kunqu Opera get international attention? 3．Who created the “youth version” of The Peony Pavilion? 4．What happened as the play was performed at universities? 5．What are the reasons for Kunqu Opera’s decline? (写出两点即可) 【答案】1．In Kunshan, Suzhou. 2．Being added to Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. 3．It was created by the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Theater and the famous writer Bai Xianyong. 4．Kunqu Opera saw a big increase in popularity, especially among young people. 5．Kunqu Opera has faced competition from popular culture in China. Kunqu Opera performers retired. Audiences got old and fewer young people wanted to learn and enjoy the ancient art. 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国最古老的传统戏曲形式之一——昆曲，包括其起源、面临的挑战、重新流行的原因以及青春版《牡丹亭》的创作和影响。 1．根据第一段首句“Kunqu Opera, one of the oldest traditional opera forms in China, was born in Kunshan, Suzhou.”可知，昆曲诞生于苏州昆山。故填In Kunshan, Suzhou. 2．根据第三段“But in 2008, Kunqu Opera was added to Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (《人类非遗代表名录》).

Kunqu Opera performers retired. Audiences got old and fewer young people wanted to learn and enjoy the ancient art. Passage 6 Journey to the West is a famous novel of China. It describes the story of Tang Monk and his three apprentices (徒弟) going on a journey to India. Sun Wukong is one of the main characters in it. He is not just any normal monkey.

With one or two pairs of bamboo clappers—a kind of traditional Chinese musical instrument in their hands, the performers tell stories in the local dialect (方言). These stories are usually folk tales or about social life. Recently, Liu Jiming and Wan Yifu made and shared three short videos by using kuaiban which were viewed about 4 million times. As a result, Liu and Wan have gained more than 1 million followers on the Internet. They’ve created many new works to raise people’s awareness. Some of their works are about the danger of drunken driving and food safety. They also write stories to show respect to people who make contributions, such as traffic policemen. According to Liu and Wan, people can understand kuaiban pieces without difficulty. The stories told in kuaiban pieces are close to people’s daily lives. Thus, they consider that it is a fun way to introduce the Chinese folk culture through kuaiban. And what matters to them is that both young people and old people begin to know the charm of the art form, kuaiban, which may not be paid much attention to, compared to other traditional art forms. Folk art forms, like xiangsheng, pingshu and kuaiban, share something in common. These traditional art forms show the beauty and value of traditional Chinese culture so they should be known by more people and get to more areas. Luckily, through the Internet, new performers who go on sharing kuaiban pieces, like Liu and Wan are playing an active role. Hopefully these Chinese folk art forms will be alive with the times.

Here are some funny school rules: Japan: Most schools demand that students wear uniforms. But many Japanese schools even regulate (规定) the color of underwear!

Other Japanese schools tell students that they can not date (约会), go to the movies, leave home after sunset or play video games without permission. The USA: For safety at USA schools, students must have a pair of indoor shoes to change into at school every day. Because this makes sure students won’t fall over on the slippery floors and keeps the schools clean. Britain: Strange hairstyles are not allowed in some British schools.

You know you can sell millions of them, but first of all, you must give the product a name—a brand name. And that may not be as easy as you think. The brand name is the thing that makes your product stand out from all the others. Businesses spend a lot of time thinking about brand names; when the name has been picked, it’s very difficult to change, so companies have to get it right first time. So how do you choose a name? A brand name should be special, memorable and easy to understand. It should create some kind of emotional connection with people who buy the product—the target (目标) market. Some companies use the family name. When Henry Ford started making cars, he just called the company Ford. Some companies use wordplay. It’s a common way for naming apps, for example WhatsApp (from the English expression What’s up? As they pronounce similarly). But what do you have to be careful about? Well, you shouldn’t choose a name that may not work in certain countries or cultures. Many years ago, a car company produced a new car that they called Nova. They thought it suggested something nice and new, but in Spanish it can be read as no va (“it doesn’t go”). Not a good name for a car in Spain! These days, the choice of brand name is quite important if your product is aimed at teenage market. A teacher in an American high school said, “Teenagers won’t buy something that’s almost the same or cheaper—simply because they feel they must wear something with the right logo.” Companies know that the name isn’t everything—the product itself has to be good, of course—it is the most important part of the whole package. Theme Brand Names Importance • Brand name will make your product stand out from all the others. • It’s not 1 to change once it is picked. Requirements for a brand name • Special. •   2 . • Easy to understand. 3 to choose a brand name • Choose from family name. • Use wordplay: e.g. words that share the similar 4 . • Pay attention to cultural differences. • For teenagers, a brand name should stay away from copying other brands. Conclusion • The product itself plays the most 5 role no matter how perfect the brand name is. 【答案】1．easy 2．Memorable 3．How 4．pronunciation 5．important 【导语】本文主要介绍了公司选择品牌名字的过程，最后强调产品名字不是一切，产品本身好才是最重要的。 1．根据“when the name has been picked, it’s very difficult to change”可知，品牌名字一旦被选中，就不容易改变。故填easy。 2．根据“A brand name should be special, memorable and easy to understand.”可知，一个品牌的名字应该是特别的、容易记住的、容易理解的，此处首字母要大写。故填Memorable。 3．根据第三段内容可知，本段主要介绍了如何选择品牌名字，因此用How，此处首字母要大写。故填How。 4．根据“Some companies use wordplay. It’s a common way for naming apps, for example WhatsApp (from the English expression What’s up? As they pronounce similarly).”可知，可以使用文字游戏如发音相近的单词来确定品牌名字，此处用pronounce的名词形式。故填pronunciation。 5．根据“Companies know that the name isn’t everything—the product itself has to be good, of course—it is the most important part of the whole package.”可知，无论品牌名称多么完美，产品本身起着最重要的作用。故填important。 Passage 6 阅读下面短文，根据其内容完成表格中所缺的信息。 Since the Tang Dynasty (618-907), the Zigong Lantern Festival has shown the wisdom and culture of people in Zigong, Sichuan Province. In 2008, the festival became a national-level intangible cultural heritage. Different kinds of beautiful lanterns can be seen during the festival. Some small lanterns are finely made. Some large ones can be as tall as 20 meters. On the lanterns, you can find Chinese zodiac (生肖), astronauts and so on. Zigong Lanterns mix sound, light and movement in just one lantern. This sets them apart from lanterns in other places. This year, the Zigong Lantern Festival started on January 29th. It had 1.15 million visits by March 17. Zigong lantern festivals have gone to more than 500 cities in China and more than 80 countries around the world. Wan Songtao learned to make Zigong lanterns from his father. When he was a teenager, he spent every summer and winter vacations learning lantern-making. To get better at designing (设计), Wan studied fine art in college. Making a large lantern for an exhibition takes over 15 steps. One of the most important parts is the first step—designing. “We used to design the lanterns all by ourselves,” said Wan. “Now we also use AI for good ideas.” Besides AI, other technologies are also helpful. This year, Wan’s favorite work is a sundial (日晷). “The success of Zigong lanterns comes from teamwork,” he said. “The sundial is the work of over 80 Zigong lantern makers as well as a group of engineers. It took us over 4,000 hours to make it and bring it to the park.” Zigong Lanterns shape the colorful world with great ideas and cool technology. They are now a name card for our hometown, as well as our motherland,” said Wan.

The aged vinegar made there was famous far and wide and was carried by Shanxi businessmen during the Ming and Qing dynasties. The production process, which has a history of 3000 years, must go through at least five steps. The newly-made vinegar has a light color, but as the years go by, it becomes thicker and darker. The aging process (陈化过程) lasts at least one year, which is where the name “aged vinegar” comes from. To this day, the work is still mostly done by hand. Inside a local workshop in Qingxu, which is built in ancient style, workers dressed in Ming Dynasty clothing are busy performing traditional vinegar brewing tasks. “They are not actors, but real workers,” says Mr. Zhang, manager of the workshop. “With the fast development of our company, our customers have shown increasing interest in knowing how the aged vinegar is made as well as its cultural background.” What’s more, to meet high level of quality, new technology and skills have been added to the production process. In the workshop, 190 fermentation tanks (发酵罐) are lined up like soldiers. “Both fermentation and smoking (熏) tasks can be achieved without human help. We even use 5G technology for control,” Mr. Zhang adds. “While the vinegar is fermented by machine, it still goes through the traditional aging process, so its taste remains the same.” Still, in recent years, the vinegar industry in Qingxu has been made suitable for the times. While it continues its tradition, it has welcomed new ideas, such as ice cream with vinegar and tangyuan with vinegar fillings. 1 2 3 4 5 【答案】1．Introduction 2．started 3．the aging process 4．cuts 5．New 【导语】本文主要介绍了山西“陈醋”的发展过程。 1．根据“Qingxu County in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, has been a main production area for aged vinegar since ancient times...”可知此处是对山西“陈醋”的基本介绍，introduction“介绍”，首字母大写。故填Introduction。 2．根据“The production process, which has a history of 3000 years”可知它有3000年的历史，即是3000年前开始的，start“开始”，句子用一般过去时，动词用过去式。故填started。 3．根据“The newly-made vinegar has a light color, but as the years go by, it becomes thicker and darker.

A camera serves as a tool for taking photos by focusing reflected light from objects or scenes onto film or a digital chip which can be processed into a photo. The idea of taking photos has been around for centuries. However, it wasn’t until 1826 that the first photo was made by an inventor who covered a metal plate with light-sensitive (感光的) chemicals and allowed light onto it through a camera lens. As time went by, photographers used different materials or ways to record an imago (图像). The first photographers were inventors, scientists and artists. Using early cameras wasn’t easy for them, because it took long to take photos, and the plates had to be processed right away so that the image wouldn’t be lost. By the 1808, photographers started to use film instead. The film not only let them take many photos on one roll but also made cameras take up less space and become lighter and even cheaper than the early ones. As a result, many people bought the film cameras and took up photography as a hobby. In the 1900s, more people started taking photos, but few processed their own film because it was expensive to buy the equipment and chemicals or set up a darkroom. However, although there were several processing steps and it took a long time to get pictures, some people did process their own film and today there are still photographers who enjoy taking photos on film and process it themselves. At the end of the 20th century, digital cameras were first used. Unlike film cameras, a digital camera records the image electronically as digital information instead of recording chemically on film. People prefer using digital cameras to the film ones because they are smaller and easier to use, letting people see pictures at once which can be deleted or changed later with a computer program. Today, almost all smartphones have cameras built into them. What will the future photography be like? Perhaps time can tell. 1． 2． 3． 4． 5． 【答案】 1．light 1．avoid 1．Smaller 1．possible 1．convenient 【导语】本文讲了摄影发展史，从化学感光到数码成像，记录光影，见证时代变迁。 1．根据“ , a word from two Greek words—‘photos’ meaning light, and ‘graphe’ meaning to write or draw, is a way of making pictures.”可知摄影是一种用工具用光拍照的方式。故填light。 2．根据“and the plates bad to be processed right away so that the image wouldn’t be lost.”可知，是为了避免图像丢失，avoid“避免”符合句意；to后填动词原形表目的，故填avoid。 3．根据“The film not only let them take many photos on one roll but also made cameras take up less space and become lighter and even cheaper than the early ones.”可知这部电影不仅让他们在一卷上拍了很多照片，而且让相机比早期的相机占用更少的空间，变得更轻，甚至更便宜，smaller“更小”符合句意。故填Smaller。 4．根据“In the 1900s, more people started taking photos, but few processed their own film because it was expensive to buy the equipment and chemicals or set up a darkroom.”可知越来越多的人开始拍照，但很少有人自己处理胶片，因为购买设备和化学品或设置暗室都很昂贵，处理胶片对大多数人来说是不可能的，possible“可能的”符合句意。故填possible。 5．根据“People prefer using digital cameras to the film ones because they are smaller and easier to use, letting people see pictures at once which can be deleted or changed later with a computer program.”可知人们更喜欢使用数码相机而不是胶片相机，因为它们更小、更容易使用，可以让人们一次看到照片，这些照片可以在以后用计算机程序删除或更改，所以处理照片更方便了，convenient“便利的”符合句意。故填convenient。 Passage 3 Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle Once upon a time in Athens, there was a wise man named Socrates. He had a big belly and a bigger brain. Socrates loved to ask questions to help people think deeper. He was like a superhero with a power of making people smarter just by talking to them. One day, a young man named Plato came to Socrates. Plato was not just any young man. He was strong and could run fast, and he could have been a great athlete. But instead, he wanted to be wise like Socrates. So, he became Socrates’ student, and they would walk around the city, talking about life, the universe, and everything. Plato was a good student, and he learned a lot from Socrates. But Socrates was getting older, and one sad day, he had to leave this world. Plato was very sad, but he remembered all the things Socrates taught him. After Socrates was gone, Plato started his own school, called the Academy. It was like a big clubhouse where people could come and learn and ask questions, just like Socrates did. Plato became a great teacher, and he wrote many stories about his talks with Socrates. Now, there was another young man named Aristotle. He was a bit like Plato when he was young. Aristotle loved learning, and he came to study under Plato. He always asked questions and wanted to know how things worked. Aristotle studied under Plato for many years, and he became very smart. But he didn’t just copy what Plato said. He thought for himself and came up with new ideas about philosophy (哲学). He said that we can learn a lot by looking at the world around us, not just by thinking about it. So, Socrates taught Plato, and Plato taught Aristotle. They were like a team of wisdom passing the torch (火炬) of knowledge from one to another. 1． 2． 3． 4． 5． 【答案】1．wisely 2．Influenced 3．big questions 4．independently 5．Added 【导语】本文主要介绍了希腊哲学家苏格拉底、柏拉图和亚里士多德。 1．根据“there was a wise man named Socrates...Socrates loved to ask questions to help people think deeper”可知苏格拉底喜欢问问题来帮助人们更深入地思考，即明智地问问题，修饰动词用副词wisely“明智地”。故填wisely。 2．根据“Plato was a good student, and he learned a lot from Socrates”可知他从苏格拉底那里学到了很多东西，即他影响了柏拉图的思想，influence“影响”，根据“Opened”可知动词用过去式，首字母大写。故填Influenced。 3．根据“he became Socrates’ student, and they would walk around the city, talking about life, the universe, and everything.”可知他成了苏格拉底的学生，他们会在城市里走来走去，谈论生命、宇宙和一切，生命和宇宙都是大的问题，big question“大问题”，用名词复数。故填big questions。 4．根据“But he didn’t just copy what Plato said. He thought for himself”可知亚里士多德独立思考，修饰动词用副词independently“独立地”。故填independently。 5．根据“came up with new ideas about philosophy”可知他提出了关于哲学的新想法，即为哲学增添新思想，add“添加”，根据“Became”可知动词用过去式，首字母大写。故填Added。 Passage 4 阅读下面短文，用英语完成思维导图。 Lanterns have been part of Chinese culture for centuries and play an important part in many celebrations. In ancient times, there were mainly three kinds of lanterns: Palace lantern (宫灯) It was mainly used in palaces in ancient times. When making palace lanterns, fine wood was used. The palace lanterns were covered with silk or glass. Different kinds of pictures were drawn on the covers. These lanterns were not only used as lights but also as decorations (装饰) in palaces. Gauze lantern (纱灯) Less expensive bamboo and gauze were used to cover the lantern. Red gauze was used when making them. In Chinese culture, red lanterns are symbols of happiness. So red lanterns are always hung on important festivals such as Lantern Festival, Spring Festival and National Day in parks or along main streets. In some famous Chinatowns (唐人街) abroad, you can see red lanterns all the year round. They have become a symbol of Chinese culture worldwide. Shadow-picture lantern (走马灯) It was usually used for amusement. The shape was much like that of the palace lanterns. There were two layers (层) of covers and pictures were drawn on the inside layer. When the candle was lit (被点燃), the heat caused a paper wheel inside the lantern to turn around, so that moving pictures appeared on the outside cover. Now more kinds of lanterns appear in festivals besides the traditional ones. More modern technology is used on making lanterns. The shapes of the modern lanterns have changed a lot too. 1 kinds of lanterns 2 lantern They were not only used as   3 but also as decorations.

The holiday was created to keep the art of letter writing alive in our high-technology age. For a long time, letter writing used to be the primary means (方法) of long-distance communication. However, the appearance of modern means of communication, such as e-mail and text messages, has made letter writing a less popular activity. Few people would like to take the time to sit down and write a letter carefully now. Even though new technologies have provided us with much faster ways to communicate, letter writing is still important for some reasons. Writing a letter to someone shows that we care about them a lot, because we take the time and effort (努力) to do something people seldom do these days. Handwriting is also a skill we shouldn’t give up, because writing by hand stimulates (刺激) our brain in a different way than typing (打字) and then improves our language processing and reading skills. Another reason is that writing a letter makes us have to pay attention to what we are writing. Far too often, we hurriedly send texts and e-mails without thinking about the influence our words may have on the person we are writing to. With a handwritten letter, we are forced to be more careful with the words we choose. So, how can we celebrate this day? The best way is to write a letter to someone. It could be a friend or a relative who lives miles away, or someone we have lost touch with over time. Of course, we can also learn the correct way to write a handwritten letter, or just read some famous letters. Whatever we do, we should know that letter writing is still worthwhile (值得做的). Celebrations: * Practice writing a letter to someone. * Learn to write a handwritten letter correctly. * Read some famous letters. Reminder: 5 we celebrate it, we should know letter writing is worthwhile. 1． 2． 3． 4． 5． 【答案】1．popularity 2．keep 3．for some reasons 4．avoid 5．Whatever way 【导语】本文主要介绍了世界写信日以及写信的好处。 1．根据“However, the appearance of modern means of communication, such as e-mail and text messages, has made letter writing a less popular activity.”可知，与现代通讯手段相比，写信的艺术正在失去它的人气。故填popularity。 2．根据“The holiday was created to keep the art of letter writing alive in our high-technology age.”可知，这个节日的设立的目的是为了在我们这个高科技时代保持写信的艺术。故填keep。 3．根据“Even though new technologies have provided us with much faster ways to communicate, letter writing is still important for some reasons.”和下文可知，此处介绍的是一些鼓励人们写信的一些原因。故填for some reasons。 4．根据“Another reason is that writing a letter makes us have to pay attention to what we are writing.”可知，写信可以帮助避免信件中的错误。故填avoid。 5．根据“Whatever we do, we should know that letter writing is still worthwhile (值得做的).”可知，无论我们以何种方式庆祝，我们都应该知道写信仍然是值得的，whatever way“无论何种方式”，位于句首，首字母需大写。故填Whatever way。 Passage 6 根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息。 Welcome to Jinhua Science and Technology Museum!

Chinese students used to be busier on weekends than weekdays, because they had to take so many after⁃school classes. Many of them spent a lot of time on these classes to learn exam skills. But Ma Xiaohua, a student from Grade 8 in Zhengzhou, spent a winter holiday that was quite different last year. “I felt more relaxed this holiday, because the homework is clearly much less and more enjoyable,” said Ma. Things like doing some housework, making an English video to introduce a Chinese custom, and reading aloud Home Letters by Fu Lei were part of her winter holiday homework. Ma found herself doing more practice⁃based (基于实践的) learning instead of always having her nose to workbooks. Another big difference for her was that she didn’t have after⁃school classes anymore. “This gives me more time to play badminton and get healthier,” she said. Like Ma, junior high school students welcomed the changes, as they don’t feel that stressed (有压力的). However, it doesn’t mean schoolwork isn’t important anymore. Some students feel worried about the changes. “I used to take many after⁃school classes, but now I lose instruction (指导).” said ninth⁃grader Zhou Xiuwei from Nanjing. “So I felt more stressed this holiday. I can only depend on myself.” 1．When were Chinese students busier in the past, on weekends or weekdays? They were busier in the past. 2．How did Ma Xiaohua feel in the winter holiday last year?

A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the problem comes from the blue light that the screen gives out. Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain (劳损), headaches and dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a break every 15 minutes when your are working at a computer or using a smartphone. A new study shows that using screens too much can affect (影响) how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one hour a day, they might have lower levels of white matter in their brains. White matter is a key to the development of language and reading skills. According to a study, about 95% of the people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially young people. Doctors say that the light from those electronics at night may make you excited before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get enough sleep. So to keep healthy, it’s best for you not to use screens for long hours. 根据短文内容完成句子，每空一词。 1．Maybe fun to use your smartphone, but you must careful. 2．From the passage, we know at our smartphones for a long time may be for our health. 3．If you need to work at a or use a smartphone for an hour, you should take a. break four an hour. 4．About 95% of the people who between 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially young. 5．In to keep healthy, you’d not use screens for long. 【答案】1． it’s be 2． looking bad 3． computer times 4． are the 5． order better 【导语】本文主要讲述了长时间面对电子产品的屏幕对健康的危害。最后，呼吁人们不要长时间使用电子产品。 1．根据“It might be fun to use your smartphone, but be careful.”可知用手机也许是有趣的，但是你必须谨慎，“to use your smartphone”是动词不定式作真正的主语，前面应用“it”作形式主语，因此第一空用“it’s”；第二空位于情态动词“must”后应用be动词的原形“be”，be careful“谨慎”。故填it’s；be。 2．根据“Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain (劳损), headaches and dry eyes.”可知长时间看手机会造成眼睛劳损，头疼或者眼睛干涩，由此可推知对我们的健康是有害的，因此第一空应用动名词“looking”，作主语；第二空应用形容词“bad”，be bad for“对……有害”。故填looking；bad。 3．根据“So it is a good idea to take a break every 15 minutes when your are working at a computer or using a smartphone.”可知如果你在电脑前工作或者使用手机，你应该每15分钟休息一次，由此可知一个小时休息四次，因此第一空填名词“computer”，第二空填名词“times”。故填computer；times。 4．根据“According to a study, about 95% of the people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially young people.”可知有95%的年龄在13岁到64岁之间的人们在睡觉前使用电子产品，尤其是年轻人，“who…”引导定语从句，先行词是“people”，因此第一空应用be动词“are”；第二空表示年轻人，应用“the+形容词”表示一类人，因此用“the”。故填are；the。 5．根据“So to keep healthy, it’s best for you not to use screens for long hours.”可知为了保持健康，最好不要长时间看屏幕。为了“In order to”，因此第一空应用“order”；had better not do sth.“最好不要做某事”，因此第二空用“better”。故填order；better。 Passage 4 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成句子。 Have you ever thought about how many different things you like?

For example, why do you like to play with cats more than dogs? Why do you like going to parties and playing games? Why do you like some sweets but not others? Our personality helps form what we like and dislike. Sometimes the things we like just come naturally to us. For example, who’s your favourite superhero?

There are certain situations where online communication is necessary but others where we choose a virtual (虚拟的) conversation over a real-life one. Is online communication preferable in today’s world? To begin with, I’d like to talk about the advantages (优点) of online communication. Firstly, online communication makes it possible to communicate with people in different places around the world. This has many advantages in the workplace as meetings can take place through video conferencing (视频会议) among companies in Stockholm, San Francisco and Shanghai without the need for long and time-consuming (耗费时间的) business trips. What’s more, it provides chances for families and friends who are far away from each other to keep in touch every day. Another advantage is that online communication gives us the choice of replying quickly and allows us to edit (编辑) and improve our message. On the other hand, there are several disadvantages of online communication. Some experts are worried that having no face-to-face communication gets in the way of the development of important social skills. Also, the very nature of conversation is different in the virtual world. If short pieces of dialogue with emoticons (表情符号) replace longer direct conversation with emotions expressed on real faces, we’re running the risk of losing the art of real conversation. On balance, I believe that online communication brings us advantages in today’s society. However, we should take care not to look down on the advantages of face-to-face dialogue. 1．Online communication makes it possible to people in different places around the world. 2．Families and friends staying far away from each other have chances to through online communication. 3．How many advantages of online communication are mentioned in the passage? 4．What will happen if there is no face-to-face communication? 5．Do you like online communication? Why or why not? 【答案】1．communicate with 2．keep in touch 3．Three. 4．It gets in the way of the development of important social skills. 5．Yes. Because it is convenient and helps me stay connected with people far away. 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，讨论了在线交流的优缺点，并分析了其在现代社会中的适用性。 1．根据“Firstly, online communication makes it possible to communicate with people in different places around the world.”可知，在线交流使与世界各地的人沟通成为可能。故填communicate with。 2．根据“...it provides chances for families and friends who are far away from each other to keep in touch every day”可知，它为相隔遥远的家人和朋友提供了每天保持联系的机会。故填keep in touch。 3．根据“Firstly, online communication makes it possible to communicate with people in different places around the world.”，“What’s more, it provides chances for families and friends who are far away from each other to keep in touch every day.”和“Another advantage is that online communication gives us the choice of replying quickly and allows us to edit and improve our message.”可知，文中提到了三个优点，故填Three. 4．根据“...having no face-to-face communication gets in the way of the development of important social skills.”可知，缺乏面对面交流阻碍重要社交技能的发展。故填It gets in the way of the development of important social skills. 5． 本题为开放性回答，合理即可。比如说喜欢，因为在线交流方便快捷，能帮助我与远方的人保持联系。故填Yes. Because it is convenient and helps me stay connected with people far away. Passage 2 Picture this: Students pass their schoolwork through different hands, from their group leader to the class representative (课代表) and finally to the teacher. It might not sound too difficult, but sometimes it can go wrong and take a lot of time. To deal with this problem, Zhang Xirui from Shenzhen Gezhi Academy in Guangdong came up with a useful tool—a smart homework collection robot. The robot uses radio frequency identification (RFID, 射频识别) technology—a reader and a special tag (标签) that can share information without touching each other. This way, it can help find and know what it is looking for. Each student’s notebook has a special RFID tag with their name and the subject on it. Students only need to place their notebooks on the robot, and the machine “sees” the notebook, reads its tag and takes it out of the list. “Teachers can check who hasn’t turned in homework by connecting their phones with the robot through Wi-Fi,” the boy said. Now, Zhang is planning to develop a third-generation robot and hopes to use new technology to read lots of RFID tags from far away. That means if you stick a special tag on your notebook, the robot can read the information from lots of notebooks at once. Zhang believes that this is the key to how AI can make life easier for us. Zhang dreams of becoming a scientist when he grows up. “I have tried making model airplanes and other scientific and creative projects. Inventing has brought me joy and happiness,” he said. 1、2题完成句子，3-5题简略回答问题。 1．The old way of collecting homework may go wrong and . 2．A special RFID tag with their name and on it is stuck on each student’s notebook. 3．How can teachers check who hasn’t turned in homework? 4．What’s Zhang Xirui’s dream according to the text? 5．Do you like the homework collection robot invented by Zhang? Why? 【答案】1．take a lot of time 2．the subject 3．By connecting their phones with the robot through Wi-Fi. 4．He dreams of becoming a scientist. 5．Yes, I do. Because it can save time and make life easier for us. 【导语】本文主要介绍了深圳格致中学的张希瑞为了解决作业收集过程中可能出现的问题和耗时长的状况，发明了一款智能作业收集机器人，并介绍了该机器人的工作原理、功能以及张希瑞的未来梦想和对该发明的看法。 1．根据第一段“It might not sound too difficult, but sometimes it can go wrong and take a lot of time.”可知，以前收集作业的方式可能会出错并且花费大量时间。故填take a lot of time。 2．根据第三段“Each student’s notebook has a special RFID tag with their name and the subject on it.”可知，每个学生的笔记本上都贴着一个特殊的RFID标签，上面有他们的名字和学科。故填the subject。 3．根据第三段“Teachers can check who hasn’t turned in homework by connecting their phones with the robot through Wi-Fi”可知，老师可以通过Wi-Fi将手机与机器人连接起来，查看谁没有交作业。故填By connecting their phones with the robot through Wi-Fi. 4．根据最后一段“Zhang dreams of becoming a scientist when he grows up.”可知，张希瑞的梦想是长大后成为一名科学家。故填He dreams of becoming a scientist. 5．这是一个开放性问题，答案因人而异。可以根据文章内容和自己的理解来回答。故填Yes, I do.
