Pandas are black and white, and they look very cute. They live in the mountains of China and eat bamboo every day. I like pandas because they are gentle and funny. Sometimes they climb trees or roll (滚动) on the ground to play. Did you know that pandas spend about 12 hours a day eating? That’s because bamboo doesn’t have much energy, so they need to eat a lot. Sadly, there are not many pandas left in the world. People are working hard to protect them and their homes. I hope one day I can see a real panda in China! 11. What is Lily’s favourite animal? A. Tigers. B. Elephants. C. Pandas. 12. What do pandas eat? A. Fish. B. Meat. C. Bamboo. 13. Why do pandas eat for 12 hours a day? A. Because they are very lazy. B.

That’s because bamboo doesn’t have much energy, so they need to eat a lot.”可知，竹子没有多少能量，所以熊猫需要吃很多，因此每天需要吃12个小时。故选B。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“I like pandas because they are”和“and funny.”以及“Sometimes they climb trees or roll (滚动) on the ground to play.”可知，大熊猫很温和且有趣，所以Lily喜欢。划线词意为“温和的”，与选项B意思相近。故选B。 ①What will the world of tomorrow be like? Many people today believe that technology (科技) is going to help solve some problems we have today. New technology may solve old problems, and it may also create new ones. No technology is perfect. Each has advantages and disadvantages. Here are three examples. ②When we dream about the future, many of us think that we will be able to fly to the sky in our own flying cars. We could fly at 480km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, if too many flying cars are in the air, there will be trouble with traffic control. ③3-D printing is another new technology for the future. 3-D printers are already used to make life-size models of car parts (部件), and man-made body parts, like ears. As we move into the future, 3-D printing will change the way we make things and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such a machine is very expensive. ④Finally, people are trying to make a robot suit (套装). This is an electronic suit. It allows people to lift heavy things and walk a long way. It might help people walk again after an illness or an accident. However, one disadvantage at the moment is the cost. ⑤It is easy to imagine a future. We will be able to fly to work, print out a new pair of shoes or lift a car above our heads. Although there are some problems to solve, we can certainly dream of a world. In this world, technology makes people's life easier and safer, and it can solve some of the most difficult problems we have today. 15. How does the writer start the passage? A. By asking a question. B. By giving a report. C. By giving advice. D. By telling a story. 16. What is an advantage of the robot suit mentioned in the passage? A. It can control air traffic for flying cars. B. It allows people to lift heavy objects and walk long distances. C. It reduces the cost of 3-D printed medical parts. D. It replaces the need for human workers in factories. 17. Which one of the following is NOT true? A. If too many flying cars are in the air, there will be problems with traffic control. B. 3-D printing won't change the way we make things. C. A robot suit costs too much at the moment. D. Technology can solve some of the most difficult problems we have today. 18. What would be the best structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 19. What is the theme (主题) of the passage? A. Traffic. B. Machines. C. Clothes. D. Technology. 【答案】15. A 16. B 17. B 18. B 19. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了未来科技可能带来的变革，包括飞行汽车、3-D打印技术和机器人套装等，同时指出了这些技术的优缺点，并展望了科技让生活更便捷、更安全的未来。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“What will the world of tomorrow be like? Many people today believe that technology (科技) is going to help solve some problems we have today.”可知，作者通过提出一个问题来开始文章。故选A。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“It allows people to lift heavy things and walk a long way.”可知，机器人套装的优点是它允许人们举起重物和走很长的路。故选B。 【17题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“As we move into the future, 3-D printing will change the way we make things and the way we treat sick people.”可知，3-D打印技术将改变我们制造物品和治疗病人的方式，因此B选项“3-D printing won't change the way we make things.”是错误的。故选B。 【18题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段提出主题，即未来科技可能带来的变革；第二、三、四段分别介绍了飞行汽车、3-D打印技术和机器人套装等未来科技及其优缺点；第五段总结全文，展望了科技让生活更便捷、更安全的未来。因此，文章的结构是①/②③④/⑤。故选B。 【19题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Many people today believe that technology (科技) is going to help solve some problems we have today.”以及全文内容可知，文章主要探讨了未来科技可能带来的变革，因此文章的主题是科技。故选D。 CAN YOU COOK?
