Adam opened his eyes and pulled the blanket covers up to his mouth. He looked around his room searching in darkness for the thing that was making those frightening 25 . The closet door moved as something banged on it from inside.
“Who’s there?” Adam asked in a shaky voice.
The closet slowly began to open. Adam jumped out of bed and ran to the closet door, slammed it 26 with his hands. Then he ran out of his room and down the hall to his brother’s room.
“Adam?” David yawned and asked in a weak voice. “What are you doing in here?”
Adam pulled on David’s arm, “There’s 27 in my closet.”
David sighed (叹气). He had worked hard preparing for his examinations and needed to rest. However, he decided to help his brother. He 28 into his desk drawer and pulled out of a torchlight. They then headed to Adam’s room. Adam stopped suddenly in the doorway. He had heard the same sound against his closet door.
A.smelly B.messy C. stuck D.off E. slowly
“Do you hear that?” Adam asked.
David nodded. He walked over to Adam’s bed and pulled the case 29 one of the pillows. He held the pillowcase (枕头套) open.
“You open the door very 30 , and I’ll take hold of whatever it is.”
Adam took a deep breath and opened the door a few inches. A small furry creature ran right into the pillowcase.
“I got it,” David said, closing the pillowcase and holding it in the air.
David put the pillowcase on the bed and an orange cat climbed out. Adam picked the cat up. “My poor cat. How did you get 31 in my closet?” David laughed. “If I was locked in your closet with your 32 shoes, I’d be pounding on the door to get out, too!”
Passage 5
A.similar to B.familiar to C. took off D.exchange E. place
When it comes to mobile payments in China, the QR code is king. However, Alipay is trying to change that with Tap, a new payment function. With Tap, shoppers no longer need to scan a QR code. They simply 33 their phone close to a small machine, and with a beep, the payment is complete. It sounds like magic, doesn’t it? The secret here lies in a technology called NFC, or Near Field Communication.
NFC is based on magnetic field induction (磁场感应). When two NFC-enabled devices are near each other, a magnetic field is created. This magnetic field enables the devices to 34 data quickly and easily. Imagine two devices whispering (低语) secrets to each other, but only when they’re very close. The “language” they use is radio waves, 35 how walkie-talkies (对讲机) work.
NFC technology has been around for many years. Two technology giants, Sony and Philips, first developed it in 2002. However, it only 36 when Apple Pay was launched (投放市场) in 2014.
A.expect B.distance C. direction D.Besides E. Instead
“Tap and go” at the checkout is much more convenient than scanning a QR code. It’s also more secure. This is because payments through NFC use encryption— like a secret code that only your bank can read. 37 , its “whisper range” is very short. Thieves would need to press their device against yours to steal your data or money. However, experts don’t 38 NFC and QR codes to be rivals (对手). 39 , they can complement (补充) each other. “When paying at the exit of a parking lot, for example, QR codes are better,” says Liu Yuanju, a researcher at the Shanghai Institute of Finance and Law. “QR codes can be scanned from a(n) 40 , while NFC only works when the phone is a few centimeters from a payment terminal (终端),” Liu adds.
Passage 6
A.show off B.brave C. end D.anything E. back
A rich man loved crocodiles so much. Once he bought a new house. There was a large swimming pool in the 41 . However, it was filled with fierce crocodiles. One day the man had a party to 42 the big house as well as his favourite pets. As the man expected, no one dared to stand next to the pool. “I think a real hero should have courage,” shouted the man. “If anyone is 43 , enough to swim through the crocodiles and make it to the other side. I will give that person 44 he wants. I will give him my job, my money, my house, and my crocodiles!”
A.swimming B.finally C. word D.certainly E. catch
Everyone laughed at the crazy idea. They thought it was just a joke, and then left the pool area. Suddenly, they heard a loud splash. Everyone turned around and saw a man 45 for his life. The crocodiles tried to 46 him quickly, but he swam to the other end and escaped from them luckily.
“Wow, unbelievable. He made it!” cried the rich man. “I keep my 47 . Tell me what you want and what I can do for you.”
The friend 48 got his breath back. Then he looked up and said: “You can tell me who pushed me into the pool!”
Passage 7
A.show off B.spread C. offered D.services E. call off
The idea of “smart” cities started in the 1970s. Since then, it has 49 to more and more countries. People thought new technology could improve city life—making transportation faster, 50 more efficient, and daily living more convenient.
Not just governments want to build smart cities. Many private companies see the smart city program as a great chance to make money. Companies like Tencent and Microsoft have all 51 their smart-city solutions. However, they don’t really know what problems they’re solving. They proudly 52 exciting new technologies like 5G, but they don’t know how to use them to solve real-world problems. In other words, they sound more like tech salespeople than city builders. They sell high-tech systems before understanding the city’s real problems.
A.raising B.shortage C. vision D.racing E. interests
This can cause many problems. City planning should always focus on one main question: How can we make life better for people? These companies, however, have to take care of their own business 53 first. Their solution to every problem is simply more technology. Their solutions often have nothing to do with people’s daily lives.
Sometimes, the problem is not a 54 of “smart” technologies. What we need instead may just be smarter decision-making. For example, self-driving cars are certainly “smarter” than bicycles. However, in fact, they could create more traffic jams. Do they really make the city a better place to live?
City managers should carefully decide what kind of life they want people to have. Planners and tech companies should follow that 55 . Instead of 56 to build “smarter” cities, we should focus on building better ones— cities designed for people, not just for technology.
Passage 8
A.distance B.control C. according to D.salary E. except for
Jane Goodall is a well-known scientist who loves animals, especially chimpanzees. When she was young, she went to Africa to study chimpanzees in the wild. She had no modern equipment at first, 57 some basic tools. She would sit quietly in the forest every day, waiting for the chimpanzees to get used to her. Many people told her to 58 the chimpanzees to make research easier, but she refused. She said studying animals needs patience-only by letting them be free could she learn the truth about their lives.
She didn’t require a high 59 . She lived in a small tent far from cities, and the long 60 from her family made her feel lonely sometimes. But she kept going because she wanted to understand chimpanzees deeply.
A.results B.manage C. mention D.respect E. depend on
She found that chimpanzees use sticks to get bugs to eat and hug each other when they’re sad-facts that few people talked about before. When she wrote books or gave talks, she would always 61 these important findings to let more people know about chimpanzees.
Her hard work brought good 62 ; more people started to care about protecting chimpanzees and stopping the destruction of their forest homes. Today, she is widely recognized as a great protector of animals, even by governments and big groups. Many organizations’ 63 her ideas to plan animal protection projects, like building safe areas for chimpanzees. Even in her old age, she still traveled around the world to tell kids about caring for nature. Jane Goodall shows us that if we love and 64 nature, we can make the world better for every living creature.
Passage 9
A.best B.better C. clean D.worst E. reduce
Do you have good teeth? We brush our teeth to keep them 65 and healthy. In fact, having good eating habits is also helpful for the health of our teeth!
Eating too many sweets is the 66 thing you can do to your teeth. When you eat candies, for example, the bacteria in your mouth will produce some acids. These acids can damage your teeth and cause you to have tooth decay (蛀牙).
You can try eating sugar-free snacks instead of sugary ones. Chewing xylitol gum (木糖醇口香糖), for example, can 67 the bacteria in your mouth.
More or less, eating leaves food debris on your teeth. If you chew more while eating, the friction between your mouth and tongue will help to 68 clear out the food debris.
A.smell B.create C. feel D.idea E. smile
People often chew more when they eat high-fiber (高纤维的) foods, such as cabbage. When they eat low-fiber foods, such as white bread, they chew fewer times. Therefore, it’s a good idea to eat more high-fiber foods.
You may think it’s okay to eat ice cubes because they’re just water. However, chewing ice can 69 tiny cracks in your teeth. These cracks can then weaken your teeth. While it may 70 good to break up ice cubes with your teeth, it’s better to let them melt in your drink.
All in all, in order to have a brighter 71 , you should improve your eating habits as well as brush your teeth twice a day. Also remember to floss and make sure to visit your dentist often!
Passage 10
将下列单词或词组填入空格。每空格限填一词,每词只能填一次。
A.saves B.computer C. evening D.night E. slower
Are you able to send a letter with pictures and sounds to someone anywhere in the world without putting a stamp on it? With e-mail you can just do that. Using a 72 you can send e-mail quickly and easily. The post is much 73 than e-mail.

It doesn’t matter if your friends are in bed when you send e-mail to them, or you are seeing a film at the cinema when they send e-mail back.
A.store B.with C. difficulty D.happen to E. instead of
Oh, no, not again! I’ve forgotten my password again! We all have 76 remembering the passwords to unlock our electronic devices (电子设备). But, if you could take a pill that remembers all of your passwords, would you take it?
Proteus Digital Health, a company from America came up with the idea to create such a powerful pill. It can 77 all of your passwords. So if you take the pill, you can open up your computers or smartphones 78 having to type in your passwords.
How does it work? The pill has a small chip (芯片). It has all your passwords and works by the acid (酸) in your stomach. Then your smartphones or computers can read the passwords on the chip when you are near. So forgetting your passwords won’t 79 you in the future any longer.

The idea of “smart” cities started in the 1970s. Since then, it has 49 to more and more countries. People thought new technology could improve city life—making transportation faster, 50 more efficient, and daily living more convenient.
Not just governments want to build smart cities. Many private companies see the smart city program as a great chance to make money. Companies like Tencent and Microsoft have all 51 their smart-city solutions. However, they don’t really know what problems they’re solving. They proudly 52 exciting new technologies like 5G, but they don’t know how to use them to solve real-world problems. In other words, they sound more like tech salespeople than city builders. They sell high-tech systems before understanding the city’s real problems.
A.raising B.shortage C. vision D.racing E. interests
This can cause many problems. City planning should always focus on one main question: How can we make life better for people? These companies, however, have to take care of their own business 53 first. Their solution to every problem is simply more technology. Their solutions often have nothing to do with people’s daily lives.
Sometimes, the problem is not a 54 of “smart” technologies. What we need instead may just be smarter decision-making. For example, self-driving cars are certainly “smarter” than bicycles. However, in fact, they could create more traffic jams. Do they really make the city a better place to live?
City managers should carefully decide what kind of life they want people to have. Planners and tech companies should follow that 55 . Instead of 56 to build “smarter” cities, we should focus on building better ones— cities designed for people, not just for technology.
