资料以“用法讲解+语境应用”为特色,通过deserve的“deserve doing/to be done”搭配及屈原写作佳句,提升语言表达能力。多样化训练题(语法填空、七选五、阅读理解)如EyeHarp科技文阅读,培养信息提取与逻辑思维,体现思维品质。课中辅助教师情境化教学,课后助力学生通过词汇训练查漏补缺,提升自主学习能力。

Ⅲ.阅读理解(共4小题;每小题2.5分,共10分)
When Joel Bueno informed his parents that he wanted to play music just like his elder twin brothers,the couple were shocked.It seemed an impossible wish to satisfy their adorable boy.But then they found EyeHarp—a gaze-activated digital instrument that their son,diagnosed with cerebral palsy(大脑性瘫痪),could play.Sitting in a hotel lobby about to go on stage,Joel says the EyeHarp—the name of the instrument as well as the company—brings him joy.But more than that,it enables him to express a range of emotions with others.
Zacharias Vamvakousis is the creative force behind EyeHarp.In 2008,he began looking into ways for disabled people to play music when a friend of his had a motorcycle accident that threatened his ability to play the guitar.It set him on a path that integrated(整合) his musical passion with his computer science skills.
EyeHarp became a mission.For many people with severe disabilities,expressing basic thoughts and feelings—let alone intentional creative expression—can be a challenge.But Dr.Vamvakousis’ combination of art and technology enables users to communicate from their soul by translating the smallest movements into musical notes on digital instruments of their choice.He created the not-for-profit EyeHarp Association in 2019,with the goal of making musical expression available to all.
The EyeHarp is in its fifth version.Now he’s focused on making the instrument as user-friendly as possible for music teachers and therapists(治疗师).“Playing music is a process that requires studying and having music classes,” he notes.“So if we want it to reach many people,we have to reach first the music teachers.”
Globally,around 50 million people could benefit from augmented(增强的) and alternative communication technology,Dr.Vamvakousis estimates.Currently,he says,fewer than 2% are so equipped.So far,around 650 people are using either the basic or advanced versions of EyeHarp.

Ⅰ.阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
Thinking of getting your child to take up a sport that involves(牵涉) a coach or instructor? Good news: A new study finds that children who take part in organized physical activity at a young age are less likely to have emotional difficulties by the time they turn 12.
“The elementary school years are a key time in child development,”said Frédéric N.Brière,a psycho-education professor who led the study published this month in Pediatric Research.“And every parent wants to raise a well-adjusted child.”
Researchers followed a birth group over time to examine whether continual participation in organized sport from ages 6 to 10 would lower risks related with emotional distress,anxiety,shyness,social pullback at the age of 12.Their goal was to test this question as critically as possible by eliminating(排除) pre-existing child or family conditions that could offer an alternative explanation.
To do this,Brière and his team examined data from a group of children born in 1997 or 1998 who are part of the Quebee Longitudinal Study of Child Development.From ages 6 to 10,mothers reported whether their children participated in organized physical activity.At the age of 12,teachers reported on the children’s levels of emotional distress,anxiety,shyness,and social pullback at school.
“The results revealed that children who participated frequently from ages 6 to 10 showed fewer instances of those factors at the age of 12 than their peers who did not join in physical activity in a continual way,” said Brière.“We found these benefits above and beyond pre-existing individual and family characteristics.”
“Getting kids actively involved in organized sport seems to promote global development.This involvement appears to be good on a socio-emotional level and not just because of physical benefits.Being less emotionally distressed at the key stage between elementary and high school is a priceless benefit for children,as they are about to enter a much larger universe with bigger academic challenges.This research supports current parental guidelines promoting children’s involvement in physical activity,” Brière concluded.

Last Friday,a robot called EveR 6 led an orchestra(管弦乐队) in a performance of Korean music at the National Theater of Korea.EveR 6 is about as tall as a person,and has a human-like face that can show emotions.Its joints(关节) allow it to move its arms quickly and smoothly in many different directions.
But EveR 6 doesn’t think on its own like some advanced artificial intelligence programs.Instead,it has a limited group of movements that it has been trained to perform.To make these movements as natural as possible,EveR 6’s movements are based on those captured from real human conductors.
In Friday’s performance,the National Orchestra of South Korea presented a concert titled “Absence”.The concert included five different pieces of music.Two were conducted by EveR 6,and two were conducted by Choi Soo-yeoul,who leads the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra.Both conductors worked together on the final piece.
Mr Choi was impressed with the way EveR 6 moved.“The robot was able to present such detailed moves much better than I had imagined,” he said.
But Mr Choi added that the robot’s biggest weakness is that it can’t hear.“Some people think that conducting is just a combination of hand waving and keeping the beat,” said Mr Choi.“But a good conductor needs to listen to the orchestra,so that he or she can correct and encourage the orchestra as it plays.”
Mr Choi and EveR 6 both conducted a piece of music called “Sense”.Instead of musical notes,EveR 6 had instructions for how to play the piece.The conductors and musicians had to work together to create the music.Mr Choi communicated with the musicians while EveR 6 kept the beat.Mr Choi said that once EveR 6 started,the musicians had “no choice but to follow its beats”.
Mr Choi doesn’t think robots are likely to replace human conductors.But he believes robots could be helpful in situations like practice sessions where the same thing needs to be repeated many times.

7.What advantage does a human conductor have over EveR 6?
A.Waving hands.
B.Keeping the beat.

语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文,主要介绍了陈卉丽致力于保护和修复重庆大足石刻圆觉洞的文物。
1.答案 protecting
解析 考查非谓语动词。devote oneself to...意为“致力于……”,其中to为介词,其后跟动名词。故填protecting。
2.答案 which
解析 考查定语从句。分析句子结构,空处引导非限制性定语从句,指代先行词the Dazu Rock Carvings,指物,且在从句中作主语,所以应用which引导。故填which。
3.答案 caused
解析 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构,空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语damage和cause之间是被动关系,所以应用过去分词作后置定语。故填caused。
4.答案 to save
解析 考查非谓语动词。eagerness to do sth意为“做某事的强烈愿望”。故填to save。
5.答案 As
解析 考查状语从句。空处引导时间状语从句,根据句中的“time went by”可知,这里表示随着时间流逝,应用as(随着)引导。位于句首,首字母大写。故填As。
6.答案 has been involved
解析 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。根据句中的时间状语so far可知,这里应用现在完成时。主语She和involve之间是被动关系,所以应用被动语态,且主语为第三人称单数,所以谓语应用单数形式。be involved in意为“参与”。故填has been involved。
7.答案 effective
解析 考查形容词。空处应用形容词作定语修饰measures。effective意为“有效的”。故填effective。
8.答案 successfully
解析 考查副词。空处应用副词作状语修饰谓语动词。successfully意为“成功地”。故填successfully。
9.答案 Despite
解析 考查介词。根据空后的名词短语可知,这里应用介词。“her remarkable achievements”和“Chen remains unsatisfied”之间是让步关系,虽然陈取得了了不起的成就,但她仍不满意,所以应用介词despite(尽管)。位于句首,首字母大写。故填Despite。
10.答案 discoveries
解析 考查名词的数。discovery意为“发现”,为可数名词,且其前有many修饰,所以这里应用复数形式。故填discoveries。
