I sat in my chair in the yard, and our new house was behind me. A table with food and drinks stood nearby. I felt a little worried. Was it a strange idea to have our own welcome party? New York was very different from my hometown in South Africa.
In Cape Town, our whole neighborhood felt like one big family. People often met outside in the evenings. Kids played together, and adults shared food and talked. My godparents always said, “The simplest way to spread goodwill is to start with your own neighborhood.” I believed in building a community with longer tables, not higher fences.
I moved to the USA after law school. My wife Sarah and I dreamed of having our own house and a warm community. We rented different places but never found that feeling. People kept to themselves. Once, we heard our neighbors arguing, but I didn’t know how to help.
Finally, in 2020, we bought a house on a street called Whitney Drive. It had trees and a friendly-looking yard. I felt this was the right place. Remembering my childhood, I knew someone had to take the first step to bring people together. So, right after moving in, I suggested a neighborhood party. Sarah and our two daughters agreed.
A month later, we sent invitations to all 12 houses. Now, sitting and waiting, I checked my watch. It was past 6 p.m. What if no one came? I sat there, hoping I could be the good neighbor I wanted to be.
Just then, a couple with a baby carriage walked toward us. Then more people came — a young family, an older couple. Soon, twenty neighbors were there, talking and laughing. Our daughters played with other kids. Everyone enjoyed the party. One neighbor said, “This is a great idea. We never had a neighborhood party before.”
That night, I learned that community isn’t about the place, but about the people. It’s about being brave enough to love your neighbor. Now, our street has regular get-togethers, and it finally feels like home.
4. What was the author’s neighborhood in Cape Town like?
A. Quiet. B. Rich. C. Friendly. D. Busy.

C. Buying Our Dream House in the USA. D. The First Neighborhood Party We Hosted.
C
Albert Einstein who is perhaps the greatest scientist in modern physics, is often considered one of the smartest men who ever lived. He made numerous contributions to the world, the most well-known being the general theory of relativity and the famous formula E=mc2. Einstein was not only a genius; he was a courageous and kind figure loved by many people.
This gentle genius was born in Germany on 14 March 1879. When he was 16 he tried to enter university in Switzerland, but failed due to his low scores in the general part of the entrance exam, despite obtaining exceptional scores in maths and physics. After studying for another year, he managed to pass the exam, entering university in 1896 and graduating in 1900.
After two years of looking for work as a teacher, Einstein took a job as a clerk in the Swiss patent office. While working there, out of a strong passion for knowledge, he continued to study, earning a doctorate in physics in 1905. That same year, which was later recorded as a miracle year in science, he published four extraordinary physics papers. Following this, he gradually became famous throughout the world as the new Isaac Newton. After four years, he was able to quit his job at the patent office and enter research full-time at a university. In 1922, he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize for Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect.
Circumstances changed in 1933, when Hitler came to power in Germany. Einstein, who was Jewish, found the doors of academic institutions closed to him. As a consequence he had to flee Germany. After spending time in Europe, he finally took up a position as a researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, USA. Following that, he continued to make great achievements in physics and mathematics.
8. Which of the following has the similar meaning to the underlined word “numerous” in paragraph 1?
A. Very large B. Rather great C. Amounts of D. Splendid
9. Which of the following about Einstein is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Once the gentle genius was not so good at studying.
B. He managed to enter university in Switzerland at 16.
C. He was born in Germany on 14 March 1897.
D. He didn’t obtain exceptional scores in maths and physics.
10. Why was Einstein awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize?
A. He was recorded to be a miracle then. B. He had four physics paper published.
C. He became just as famous as Newton. D. He explained the photoelectric effect.
11. Why did Einstein have to flee Germany?
A. He wanted to go to the USA. B. Hitler came to power.
C. He took up a job in Princeton. D. He wanted to make achievements in physics.
D
Have you ever forgotten to lock the door of your house? Or, have you ever forgotten to switch off the TV or computer? These kinds of things happen to us all the time, waste resources, and can sometimes lead to problems. However, in the not-too-distant future, we will be living in smart homes that will lock the door for us when we are away and remember to switch off the TV when we forget. These smart homes will keep us secure, save us energy, and provide a more comfortable environment to live in.
Intelligent Controls
Today, we have to use switches for our lights, knobs for our appliances, and remote controls for our TVs and air conditioners. In the future, we will be using advanced technology every day for automatic control of just about everything in our home. The future home will use integrated sensors to tell when you leave home each morning, and then go into an energy-efficient mode all by itself. You will no longer have to think about turning switches on and off yourself. Your home will also learn your daily routine and preferences, so everything will be ready for you when you get home each evening. Your lights will come on the instant you enter the door along with your favorite music or TV programs, and you will find your dinner already prepared for you. All controls will respond to voice commands, so if you want to change your routine, you just say aloud what you want and the home system will obey.
This smart technology is not a fantasy. Many of these new innovations are already available and being used in some homes. In this sense, the home of tomorrow is already the home of today. Nevertheless, it will take some years before most new homes begin to use this new technology.
12. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Smart homes will stop your home from becoming flooded or catching fire.
B. Smart technology will prevent your family from getting cancer.
C. Intelligent controls will be used in smart homes.
D. Smart homes will keep people safe, energy-saving and comfortable.
13. According to Intelligent Controls, the control of the home in the future is
A. hand-driven B. automatic C. worthless D. cheap
14. When you enter your home in the future, you will feel the following EXCEPT that
A. your lights will be on B. your favorite music or TV programs will begin
C. your dinner will be prepared D. everybody is at home
15. Where is the passage likely to be taken from?
A. A science magazine B. A research report C. A health magazine D. A book review

“Ellen, you’re up next!” the stage manager announced.

I sat in my chair in the yard, and our new house was behind me. A table with food and drinks stood nearby. I felt a little worried. Was it a strange idea to have our own welcome party? New York was very different from my hometown in South Africa.
In Cape Town, our whole neighborhood felt like one big family. People often met outside in the evenings. Kids played together, and adults shared food and talked. My godparents always said, “The simplest way to spread goodwill is to start with your own neighborhood.” I believed in building a community with longer tables, not higher fences.
I moved to the USA after law school. My wife Sarah and I dreamed of having our own house and a warm community. We rented different places but never found that feeling. People kept to themselves. Once, we heard our neighbors arguing, but I didn’t know how to help.
Finally, in 2020, we bought a house on a street called Whitney Drive. It had trees and a friendly-looking yard. I felt this was the right place. Remembering my childhood, I knew someone had to take the first step to bring people together. So, right after moving in, I suggested a neighborhood party. Sarah and our two daughters agreed.
A month later, we sent invitations to all 12 houses. Now, sitting and waiting, I checked my watch. It was past 6 p.m. What if no one came? I sat there, hoping I could be the good neighbor I wanted to be.
Just then, a couple with a baby carriage walked toward us. Then more people came — a young family, an older couple. Soon, twenty neighbors were there, talking and laughing. Our daughters played with other kids. Everyone enjoyed the party. One neighbor said, “This is a great idea. We never had a neighborhood party before.”
That night, I learned that community isn’t about the place, but about the people. It’s about being brave enough to love your neighbor. Now, our street has regular get-togethers, and it finally feels like home.

Albert Einstein, who is perhaps the greatest scientist in modern physics, is often considered one of the smartest men who ever lived. He made numerous contributions to the world, the most well-known being the general theory of relativity and the famous formula E=mc2. Einstein was not only a genius; he was a courageous and kind figure loved by many people.
This gentle genius was born in Germany on 14 March 1879. When he was 16, he tried to enter university in Switzerland, but failed due to his low scores in the general part of the entrance exam, despite obtaining exceptional scores in maths and physics. After studying for another year, he managed to pass the exam, entering university in 1896 and graduating in 1900.
After two years of looking for work as a teacher, Einstein took a job as a clerk in the Swiss patent office. While working there, out of a strong passion for knowledge, he continued to study, earning a doctorate in physics in 1905. That same year, which was later recorded as a miracle year in science, he published four extraordinary physics papers. Following this, he gradually became famous throughout the world as the new Isaac Newton. After four years, he was able to quit his job at the patent office and enter research full-time at a university. In 1922, he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize for Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect.
Circumstances changed in 1933, when Hitler came to power in Germany. Einstein, who was Jewish, found the doors of academic institutions closed to him. As a consequence he had to flee Germany. After spending time in Europe, he finally took up a position as a researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, USA. Following that, he continued to make great achievements in physics and mathematics.
8. Which of the following has the similar meaning to the underlined word “numerous” in paragraph 1?
A. Very large B. Rather great C. Amounts of D. Splendid
9. Which of the following about Einstein is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Once the gentle genius was not so good at studying.
B. He managed to enter university in Switzerland at 16.
C. He was born in Germany on 14 March 1897.
D. He didn’t obtain exceptional scores in maths and physics.
10. Why was Einstein awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize?
A. He was recorded to be a miracle then. B. He had four physics paper published.
C. He became just as famous as Newton. D. He explained the photoelectric effect.
11. Why did Einstein have to flee Germany?
A. He wanted to go to the USA. B. Hitler came to power.
C. He took up a job in Princeton. D. He wanted to make achievements in physics.

Have you ever forgotten to lock the door of your house? Or, have you ever forgotten to switch off the TV or computer? These kinds of things happen to us all the time, waste resources, and can sometimes lead to problems. However, in the not-too-distant future, we will be living in smart homes that will lock the door for us when we are away and remember to switch off the TV when we forget. These smart homes will keep us secure, save us energy, and provide a more comfortable environment to live in.
Intelligent Controls
Today, we have to use switches for our lights, knobs for our appliances, and remote controls for our TVs and air conditioners. In the future, we will be using advanced technology every day for automatic control of just about everything in our home. The future home will use integrated sensors to tell when you leave home each morning, and then go into an energy-efficient mode all by itself. You will no longer have to think about turning switches on and off yourself. Your home will also learn your daily routine and preferences, so everything will be ready for you when you get home each evening. Your lights will come on the instant you enter the door along with your favorite music or TV programs, and you will find your dinner already prepared for you. All controls will respond to voice commands, so if you want to change your routine, you just say aloud what you want and the home system will obey.
This smart technology is not a fantasy. Many of these new innovations are already available and being used in some homes. In this sense, the home of tomorrow is already the home of today. Nevertheless, it will take some years before most new homes begin to use this new technology.
12. What’s the main idea of the passage?

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Grace and Ellen, both promising in their school’s dance competition, were fierce competitors. They both had great passion for dancing and dreamed for bigger stages. They were both friends and competitors. They had similar taste in music, and had similar dressing styles. They had both devoted themselves to preparing for the upcoming contest.
Grace’s journey to the competition was marked by countless hours of practice and determination. She would rise before the sun, and the studio lights were her only company. Every movement was perfected with unwavering mind. She knew that this competition wasn’t just about personal success; it was also about upholding her school’s honor. “Grace, you’re incredible!” Grace’s dance instructor, Mrs. Anderson, often praised her. “Your hard work will pay off.”
Ellen had been practicing hard for this competition as well. Her love for dance was her driving force. After school, she would head straight to the dance studio, tirelessly perfecting every step. Her dance shoes had become a part of her feet, and her heart burned with a strong desire for victory. “Ellen, you’re a natural,” her fellow dancers would often say. “You’ve got this!”
The day of the competition finally arrived, and there were five competitors fighting for the championship title. Ellen was scheduled to perform before Grace.
As Ellen stood backstage, the butterflies in her stomach seemed to have turned into a whirlwind. She practiced every move once again but suddenly broke her dress with a sharp movement. Panic set in as her mind raced for a solution.
“Ellen, you’re up next!” the stage manager announced.
In the dimly lit backstage area, Grace overheard Ellen’s whispers to her friend, Sarah.
“I broke my dancing dress, Sarah,” Ellen’s voice trembled. “What am I going to do?”
Grace’s heart sank as she overheard the conversation.

Tears of thanks welled up in Ellen’s eyes as she put on Grace’s dress.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Grace knew her dress would fit Ellen perfectly, but she hesitated. After all, it was Ellen’s own fault for breaking her dress. However, Grace also understood that sometimes in competition, we should put aside our differences and help each other. She took a deep breath and approached Ellen. “Ellen, I heard your problem,” Grace said with a soft voice, “my dress can fit you perfectly. You can wear my dress on stage.” Ellen’s eyes widened in surprise. “Grace, you would do that for me?” she asked, her voice trembling.“Of course, Ellen,” Grace replied, a gentle smile on her face. “Now, go out there and show them what you’ve got.”
Tears of thanks welled up in Ellen’s eyes as she put on Grace’s dress. She knew that she had let herself down and almost gave up but Grace’s act of kindness restored her faith in herself. She vowed to herself that she would not let Grace down and would do her best in the competition. Finally, Ellen won the competition with her outstanding performance. But what made her happiest was having such a good friend.
