So, they teamed up to help the blind by fixing the problem. Feng and Meng both studied at No.37 Middle School in Taiyuan, Shanxi province. They invented a new kind of Braille reader.

The invention was also given a national patent (专利). When connected to a computer, their Braille reader can turn words into raised dots (凸起的点). Blind people can read by touching the dots, which are made of magnets (磁铁). This is the first Braille reader that uses magnets. “We found that today’s Braille readers are very difficult and expensive,” Feng said. “So, we decided to develop a user-friendly product, especially for young blind children from grades 1 to 3. Moreover, it only costs about 2,000 yuan.” After making their first machine, Feng and Meng visited a school for the blind to get advice and improved it based on the students’ needs, like changing the size of the screen and the amount of space between the dots. “We hope the invention will be widely used in the future to help those blind people who can’t afford the Braille reader now,” Meng told Taiyuan News. 29.

The winters there are cool and the summers are very hot. This area is also home to a mysterious phenomenon (现象) called the Marfa Lights. The Marfa Lights are bright lights that appear in the night sky all of a sudden and then fly to faraway places and disappear. They are about the size of basketballs and are often described as white blue, yellow, red, or other colors. The lights sometimes even get close to people’s houses. One woman who lived on a farm told the story of what she experienced one night. She was in bed and suddenly she saw the lights shining through her bedroom window. She watched them change color for a few minutes. Finally, they went away. Pilots who used to train in the desert in the 1940s also reported that they once saw these mysterious lights. What causes this phenomenon? People have different opinions on this. A popular explanation is that the lights might have something to do with headlights from cars on the road nearby. Scientific research also suggests that some of the lights are caused by the refraction (折射) of light between layers (层) of air that have different temperatures. However, not all of these lights can be explained so easily. Anyway, people will continue to study the lights to find out where they come from. No matter what these lights really are, they are as mysterious today as when they first appeared. But it is certain that the mystery behind them will be solved one day. 33. What does the first paragraph tell us about the Marfa Lights? A. The color. B. The place. C. The speed. D. The size. 34. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. People know the cause of the Marfa Lights clearly. B. The Marfa Lights come from cars on the road nearby. C. The Marfa Lights are caused by the refraction. D. No one has been able to explain the cause of the Marfa Lights so far. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. Experiences of the Marfa Lights B. Causes of the Marfa Lights C. Mystery of the Marfa Lights D. Study of the Marfa Lights 【答案】33. B 34. D 35.

Though simple and little, they are a great invention in the history of humans. During Yao and Shun times, Shun asked Yu to control the flood (洪水). One day, Yu took a boat to an island, and he was hungry. He used an earthen (陶制的) pot to cook meat. After the meat was well-done, he didn’t want to waste time waiting for it to cool down, so he took two branches (树枝) to pick up the meat from the soup. They worked very well. Gradually, he was good at picking up food with small sticks. In this way, the first kind of chopsticks was born. Some people think that Confucius pushed the development of chopsticks. Confucius believed that using chopsticks instead of knives would remind people to stay away from killing at table. We enjoy our delicious food with our family members or friends. Whenever we use chopsticks at the table, we feel the world is peaceful. The chopsticks are made of different kinds of things. There are more than 200 kinds of chopsticks now. Among them, the bamboo chopsticks are most widely used. “A single chopstick can be broken easily; ten pairs of chopsticks hold tightly (紧紧地) together…” The song is popular with many people, and it always encourages people to work together. 51.

In this way, the first kind of chopsticks was born.”可知，第一种筷子是在大禹治水时期出现的。故填Yao and Shun times。 【52题详解】 根据“After the meat was well-done, he didn’t want to waste time waiting for it to cool down, so he took two branches (树枝) to pick up the meat from the soup.”可知，大禹用两根树枝从汤里夹起肉。故填used two branches。 【53题详解】 根据“Confucius believed that using chopsticks instead of knives would remind people to stay away from killing at table.”可知，孔子鼓励人们使用筷子，是因为他想提醒人们远离餐桌上的杀戮。故填stay away from。 【54题详解】 根据“Among them, the bamboo chopsticks are most widely used.”可知，竹筷是最广泛使用的筷子。故填bamboo。 【55题详解】 本题是开放性试题，言之有理即可。故填working together is important。 Ⅷ. 交流与表达 （共6小题，计20分） 第一节：补全对话。 根据下面对话中的情境，在每个空白处填入一个恰当的语句，使对话恢复完整。 [A foreign student Candy (A) is asking her Chinese friend Zhu Hui (B) about the Winter Solstice (冬至).] A: Hey, Zhu Hui!

So, they teamed up to help the blind by fixing the problem. Feng and Meng both studied at No.37 Middle School in Taiyuan, Shanxi province. They invented a new kind of Braille reader. Their work took first prize in a national competition. The goal of this competition is to nurture creative thinking—it does this by encouraging young people to solve social problems. The invention was also given a national patent (专利). When connected to a computer, their Braille reader can turn words into raised dots (凸起的点). Blind people can read by touching the dots, which are made of magnets (磁铁). This is the first Braille reader that uses magnets. “We found that today’s Braille readers are very difficult and expensive,” Feng said. “So, we decided to develop a user-friendly product, especially for young blind children from grades 1 to 3. Moreover, it only costs about 2,000 yuan.” After making their first machine, Feng and Meng visited a school for the blind to get advice and improved it based on the students’ needs, like changing the size of the screen and the amount of space between the dots. “We hope the invention will be widely used in the future to help those blind people who can’t afford the Braille reader now,” Meng told Taiyuan News. 29. Why did the two students invent a new kind of Braille reader? A. To get a national patent. B. To hold a reading competition. C. To encourage kids to solve social problems. D. To help the blind have more Braille books. 30. The underlined word “nurture” means “________” in Paragraph 1. A. develop B. pack C. imagine D. understand 31. Which of the following is TRUE about the new Braille reader? A. It is big and expensive. B. It is the first to use magnets. C. It needs to be connected to a phone. D. It is designed especially for old people. 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. Feng and Meng solved many social problems together. B. Feng and Meng have set up their own business as a team. C. Feng and Meng became very popular at home and abroad. D. Feng and Meng have high hopes for their Braille reader. C The Chihuahuan Desert in West Texas is one of the largest deserts in North America. The winters there are cool and the summers are very hot. This area is also home to a mysterious phenomenon (现象) called the Marfa Lights. The Marfa Lights are bright lights that appear in the night sky all of a sudden and then fly to faraway places and disappear. They are about the size of basketballs and are often described as white, blue, yellow, red, or other colors. The lights sometimes even get close to people’s houses. One woman who lived on a farm told the story of what she experienced one night. She was in bed and suddenly she saw the lights shining through her bedroom window. She watched them change color for a few minutes. Finally, they went away. Pilots who used to train in the desert in the 1940s also reported that they once saw these mysterious lights. What causes this phenomenon? People have different opinions on this. A popular explanation is that the lights might have something to do with headlights from cars on the road nearby. Scientific research also suggests that some of the lights are caused by the refraction (折射) of light between layers (层) of air that have different temperatures. However, not all of these lights can be explained so easily. Anyway, people will continue to study the lights to find out where they come from. No matter what these lights really are, they are as mysterious today as when they first appeared. But it is certain that the mystery behind them will be solved one day. 33. What does the first paragraph tell us about the Marfa Lights? A. The color. B. The place. C. The speed. D. The size. 34. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A People know the cause of the Marfa Lights clearly. B. The Marfa Lights come from cars on the road nearby. C. The Marfa Lights are caused by the refraction. D. No one has been able to explain the cause of the Marfa Lights so far. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. Experiences of the Marfa Lights B. Causes of the Marfa Lights C. Mystery of the Marfa Lights D. Study of the Marfa Lights V. 完成句子： 根据所给汉语意思，用单词或短语完成下列英文句子。（共5小题，计10分） 36. 我们班的图书角被称为“知识小天地”。 The book corner in our class ________ the “Little World of Knowledge”. 37. 当秋天来临时，树叶飘落在窗户边，让图书角显得更温馨了。 When autumn comes, ________ fall by the window, making the book corner warmer. 38. 图书管理员的日常任务就是整理图书、登记借阅情况，让图书角保持整洁。 The librarian’s ________ task is to sort out books, record borrowing information, and keep the book corner clean. 39. 这里的借阅规则和图书馆几乎是一样的，都是每次最多借3本书。 The borrowing rules here are ________ as those of the library—you can borrow up to 3 books at a time. 40. 每次借书，都需要亲自找图书管理员登记。 Every time you borrow a book, you need to go to the librarian ________ and sign your name.
