Some gadgets get smaller and faster. Others are replaced (代替) by newer things like smartphones. They can do hundreds of things. Here are some old gadgets that people used to use. __①__ Do you have a landline at home? These are phones that people plug (插入) into their living room walls. Mobile phones didn’t use to be so common at that time, so most families had a landline. But landlines only worked at home. What did people do when they were outside and needed to call someone? They looked for a pay phone! Then, most people had their own mobile phones and many homes no longer had landlines. __②__ People today store plenty of information online, or on SD cards. But in the 1980s and 1990s, people used to use floppy disks. The first floppy disks were large, expensive, and not very useful — each disk could store just 175 KB of information! Later, floppy disks got smaller and better. But even the best ones could only hold 1.44 MB. You would need three or four disks just for one song, and about 22,000 disks to match the storage (储存空间) available on a 32 GB phone! __③__ It’s easy to take photos today. People often have thousands just on their phones! But photos used to be expensive, and people took fewer of them. To take a photo, you had to buy a roll of film. This allowed you to take about 30 photos. After finishing the roll, you left it at a shop. The shop developed the photos to make them be seen, which you could collect after a few days. Technology changes all the time, and the gadgets we use today will one day be old. What do you think will be next to disappear? 1. What does the underlined word “gadgets” mean in Paragraph 1? 　 　 A. Toys. B. Tools. C. Games. D. Phones. 2. Match the title with each paragraph. 　 　 a. Goodbye Disks b. Music to My Ears c. Picture This d. Call Me e.

They could store much. D. They were easy to carry. 4. What can we get from the passage? A. It was convenient to take photos with film. B. People outside used landlines to call someone. C. Improvements in technology change people’s life. D. For a time, many people had pay phones at home. 5. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The Changing Phones. B. The Products of Tomorrow. C. Old Things We Use Today. D. The Things We Used to Use. 【答案】BBACD 【解析】 1. 词义猜测题。根据第1段“Others are replaced (代替) by newer things like smartphones. They can do hundreds of things. Here are some old gadgets that people used to use.（其他的被智能手机等更新的东西所取代。它们可以做数百件事情。这里有一些人们过去使用的旧小工具。）”可知gadgets指的是工具。故选B。 2. 推理判断题。根据第2段“What did people do when they were outside and needed to call someone? They looked for a pay phone! Then, most people had their own mobile phones and many homes no longer had landlines.（当人们在外面需要打电话时，他们会怎么做？他们寻找公用电话！然后，大多数人都有自己的手机，许多家庭不再有固定电话。）”可知①讲的是Call Me；根据第3段“But in the 1980s and 1990s, people used to use floppy disks.（但在1980年代和1990年代，人们习惯使用软盘。）”可知②讲的是Goodbye Disks；根据第5段“It’s easy to take photos today. People often have thousands just on their phones! But photos used to be expensive, and people took fewer of them.（今天拍照很容易。人们通常只在手机上就有数千张！但过去的照片很贵，人们拍的照片越来越少。）”可知③讲的是Picture This。故选B。 3. 细节理解题。根据第4段“The first floppy disks were large, expensive, and not very useful — each disk could store just 175 KB of information!（最初的软盘体积大、价格高，而且实用性不强——每张软盘只能存储175KB的信息！）”可知，最初的软盘要花很多钱。故选A。 4. 推理判断题。通读全文结合最后一段“Technology changes all the time, and the gadgets we use today will one day be old.（技术一直在变化，我们今天使用的小工具有一天会过时。）”可知科技进步改变了人们的生活。A. 用胶片拍照很方便；B. 外面的人用固定电话给某人打电话；C. 技术的进步改变了人们的生活；D. 曾有一段时间，许多人家里都有付费电话。故选C。 5. 标题归纳题。根据第1段“Here are some old gadgets that people used to use.（这是人们过去使用的一些旧小工具。）”可知本文主要介绍一些我们过去使用的东西。A. 不断变化的手机；B. 未来的产品；C. 我们今天使用的旧物件；D. 我们曾经使用过的东西。故选D。 C I was pleased at running away from Silver though I knew he was still somewhere nearby on the island. As I was trying to find a safer place to hide myself, I heard some men talking close by. It was Silver and Tom. “I want you with me,” Silver shouted, “When we have the treasure, there’s gold for you too.” “No,” cried Tom, “I told you. I’m not a murderer. You’re guilty, all of you.” Sadly these were the last words of Tom. It was a gunshot, Silver’s gun. I moved away quickly and quietly. I ran fast, not thinking about the direction I was taking. Suddenly, I saw something move quickly from tree to tree. What was it, whether a bear or a man or a monkey? Silver himself appeared less terrible tome now. As it was getting closer to me. I finally found it was a man. “Who are you?” I asked. “Ben Gunn,” he answered. “I’m poor Ben Gunn, and I haven’t spoken with a man these three years. Who are you, mate?” “Jim,” I told him. “Jim, tell me is that Flint’s ship?” he asked in fear, pointing to the ship which I ran away from. “No, and Flint is dead. But there are some of Flint’s hands aboard.” “You see a man…with one…leg?” Ben asked in a tremulous voice, with his pale face and scared eyes. “You mean Silver? He once worked as a cook on the ship.” I added. “Now, he is also on the island to find Flint’s treasure. He wants to kill us and take over the ship.” “Good boy,” he said, “I was on Flint’s ship when he buried (埋) the treasure, he and six strong seamen. But, when he returned, he himself alone, and the six all died. How he made it, not a man except him could make out. It was a battle, a murder, and a sudden death — him against six.” Suddenly, the noise of explosions (爆炸) from an island stopped our talking… —Adapted from Treasure Island 1.

He once worked as a cook on the ship.” I added. “Now, he is also on the island to find Flint’s treasure. He wants to kill us and take over the ship.”（‘你说的是西尔弗吗？他曾在这艘船上做过厨师。’我补充道。‘如今，他也来到岛上寻找弗林特的宝藏。他想杀了我们，然后接管这艘船。’）”可推断出，西尔弗杀了弗林特，故选B。 3. 题干意思：从这篇文章中你能了解到什么？A. 西尔弗用枪杀了汤姆；B. 弗林特是个只有一条腿的男子；C. 本·冈恩之前并不认识西尔弗；D. 吉姆在岛上被遗弃了三年。根据第3段““No,” cried Tom, “I told you. I’m not a murderer. You’re guilty, all of you.” Sadly these were the last words of Tom. It was a gunshot, Silver’s gun.（‘不！’汤姆喊道，‘我跟你们说过。我不是凶手。你们全都是罪犯。’这些话是汤姆说的最后几句话。那是一声枪响，是西尔弗的枪声。）”可知，西尔弗用枪杀了汤姆。故选A。 4. 题干意思：这个故事之后会发生什么呢？A. 本·冈恩找到了宝藏的秘密；B. 吉姆在一艘小船的帮助下独自离开了；C. 西尔弗想让吉姆和他一起分享宝藏；D. 吉姆的朋友们占领了一个岛屿，并与西尔弗发生冲突。根据最后一段“Suddenly, the noise of explosions (爆炸) from an island stopped our talking…（突然，来自一座岛屿的爆炸声打断了我们的谈话……）”以及前文提到的西尔弗等人也在岛上寻找宝藏，且西尔弗想杀掉吉姆等人并夺取船只，可推断出爆炸声可能是吉姆的朋友和西尔弗等人发生了冲突，即吉姆的朋友占领了一个岛屿并与西尔弗战斗。故选D。 D Feelings are difficult to deal with, especially for a 4-year-old who doesn’t know why his mum won’t let him eat another cake and a 7-year-old who is unhappy because his dad returns to work and has to leave the playground early. For parents, it’s very important to begin teaching children about their feelings as early as possible because their feelings influence (影响) every choice they make. Children who understand their feelings are less likely to act out by getting angry or fighting with others. They can use clear sentences to express their feelings. A good way to help children learn about feelings is to talk about how different roles in TV series may feel. When watching TV, a parent could stop and ask the child, “How do you think he feels right now?” Then, discuss the feelings that person may experience and the reasons. Doing so also teaches empathy (共鸣). Young children think the world centers around them, so it can be an experience for them to learn other people have feelings too. When young children can understand other people’s feelings, they are less likely to do bad things to them. For example, if a child knows that pushing his friend to the ground may make his friend sad, he will do so less. Teaching a child about feelings will help him become mentally (精神上) strong. Children who have the skills to deal with their feelings will be so confident that they can deal with whatever they meet in their life. 1. What is a good way to help children learn about feelings according to the text? A. Asking children to leave the playground early. B. Letting children eat more cakes to make them happy. C. Making children fight with others to express feelings. D. Talking about how different roles in TV series may feel. 2. If a child can understand others’ feelings, which of the following behaviors (行为) is he/she the least likely (最不可能) to do? A. Helping a younger kid who is lost. B. Sharing toys with a friend who is sad. C. Laughing at a friend who fails an exam. D. Saying sorry to a classmate after hurting him/her. 3. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage? A. To describe how children express their feelings. B. To advise parents to teach children about feelings early. C. To explain why children don’t want to leave the playground. D. To tell parents to let children eat as many cookies as they like. 【答案】DCB 【解析】本文主要讲述了情绪对孩子的重要性以及父母尽早教导孩子了解和处理情绪的必要性。文章开头指出情绪难以处理，尤其对小孩子而言；接着强调父母应尽早教孩子认识情绪，因为情绪影响孩子的每一个选择，理解情绪的孩子更少通过愤怒或打架发泄，能用清晰句子表达感受；还提到通过讨论电视剧中角色的情绪来帮助孩子，这能培养同理心，让孩子理解他人感受，减少伤害他人行为；最后说明教孩子情绪管理有助于他们精神强大，自信应对生活中的事情。 1. 题干意思：根据文中的内容，帮助孩子了解情感的好方法是什么？A. 让孩子们早点离开操场；B. 让孩子们多吃些蛋糕以使他们开心；C. 让孩子们与他人争斗来表达情感；D. 讲述电视剧中不同角色的感受。根据第3段“A good way to help children learn about feelings is to talk about how different roles in TV series may feel.（帮助孩子了解情感的一个好方法是讨论电视剧中不同角色的感受。）”可知，答案选D。 2. 题干意思：如果一个孩子能够理解他人的感受，那么以下哪种行为他/她最不可能去做呢？A. 帮助一个迷路的小朋友；B. 与一个伤心的朋友分享玩具；C. 因为朋友考试不及格而嘲笑他；D. 在伤害了同学之后向同学道歉。根据第4段“（这样做还能培养同理心。年幼的孩子认为世界是以他们为中心的，所以让他们了解到其他人也有情感，这对他们来说会是一种重要的体验。当年幼的孩子能够理解他人的情感时，他们就不太可能对他人做出不好的行为。例如，如果一个孩子知道把他朋友推倒在地可能会让他的朋友感到难过，那么他就会减少这样的行为。）”可知，答案选C。 3. 题干意思： 作者写这篇文章的目的是什么？A. 描述孩子们如何表达自己的情感；B. 建议家长尽早教导孩子有关情感的知识；C. 解释为什么孩子们不愿意离开操场；D. 告诉家长让孩子尽情享用他们想要的任何饼干。根据第5段“Teaching a child about feelings will help him become mentally (精神上) strong.

In the past, there were only muddy roads and very few cars. People mostly walked or rode bicycles to get around. Now the roads are much wider and far busier than before, filled with cars, buses, and motorcycles day and night. The buildings have also changed. Fifty years ago, most buildings were short, simple, and made of brick or wood. Today, they are much taller and more modern, with glass and steel structures everywhere. The environment has changed too. The air was fresher and cleaner before, but now it is more polluted because of the growing number of factories and cars. However, people are trying to plant more trees and build parks to make the city greener and healthier. There are also more fun and convenient places now. We have a huge new shopping mall which is larger, brighter, and more exciting than the old market. Young people think life is more interesting and convenient now because there are more activities and things to do. But some old people still remember the past and say life was simpler, quieter, and more peaceful back then. 1. How did people mainly travel in the past? A. By car and bus. B. By motorcycles. C. By walking or bicycle. D. By train. 2. In the third paragraph, the underlined word “polluted” means ____ . A. fresh and clean B. dirty and harmful C. modern and convenient D. simple and peaceful 3. Why do some old people prefer life in the past? A. Because there were more shopping malls. B. Because the air was cleaner and life was quieter. C. Because there were more factories and cars. D. Because buildings were taller and more modern. 4. What are people doing to improve the environment now? A. Building more factories. B. Making roads wider. C. Planting more trees and building parks. D. Driving more cars. 5. What is the main idea of this passage? A. The hometown has not changed at all. B. The changes have only brought problems. C. The hometown has changed with both good and bad sides. D. Only young people like the changes. B Improvements in technology often happen overnight. Some gadgets get smaller and faster. Others are replaced (代替) by newer things like smartphones. They can do hundreds of things. Here are some old gadgets that people used to use. __①__ Do you have a landline at home? These are phones that people plug (插入) into their living room walls. Mobile phones didn’t use to be so common at that time, so most families had a landline. But landlines only worked at home. What did people do when they were outside and needed to call someone? They looked for a pay phone! Then, most people had their own mobile phones and many homes no longer had landlines. __②__ People today store plenty of information online, or on SD cards. But in the 1980s and 1990s, people used to use floppy disks. The first floppy disks were large, expensive, and not very useful — each disk could store just 175 KB of information! Later, floppy disks got smaller and better. But even the best ones could only hold 1.44 MB. You would need three or four disks just for one song, and about 22,000 disks to match the storage (储存空间) available on a 32 GB phone! __③__ It’s easy to take photos today. People often have thousands just on their phones! But photos used to be expensive, and people took fewer of them. To take a photo, you had to buy a roll of film. This allowed you to take about 30 photos. After finishing the roll, you left it at a shop. The shop developed the photos to make them be seen, which you could collect after a few days. Technology changes all the time, and the gadgets we use today will one day be old. What do you think will be next to disappear? 1. What does the underlined word “gadgets” mean in Paragraph 1? 　 　 A. Toys. B. Tools. C. Games. D. Phones. 2. Match the title with each paragraph. 　 　 a. Goodbye Disks b. Music to My Ears c. Picture This d. Call Me e. Film Development A. ①-c；②-a；③-b B. ①-d；②-a；③-c C. ①-d；②-b；③-e D. ①-c；②-b；③-e 3. What were the first floppy disks like? 　 　 A. They cost a lot of money. B. They were very useful. C. They could store much. D. They were easy to carry. 4. What can we get from the passage? A. It was convenient to take photos with film. B. People outside used landlines to call someone. C. Improvements in technology change people’s life. D. For a time, many people had pay phones at home. 5. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The Changing Phones. B. The Products of Tomorrow. C. Old Things We Use Today. D. The Things We Used to Use. C I was pleased at running away from Silver though I knew he was still somewhere nearby on the island. As I was trying to find a safer place to hide myself, I heard some men talking close by. It was Silver and Tom. “I want you with me,” Silver shouted, “When we have the treasure, there’s gold for you too.” “No,” cried Tom, “I told you. I’m not a murderer. You’re guilty, all of you.” Sadly these were the last words of Tom. It was a gunshot, Silver’s gun. I moved away quickly and quietly. I ran fast, not thinking about the direction I was taking. Suddenly, I saw something move quickly from tree to tree. What was it, whether a bear or a man or a monkey? Silver himself appeared less terrible tome now. As it was getting closer to me. I finally found it was a man. “Who are you?” I asked. “Ben Gunn,” he answered. “I’m poor Ben Gunn, and I haven’t spoken with a man these three years. Who are you, mate?” “Jim,” I told him. “Jim, tell me is that Flint’s ship?” he asked in fear, pointing to the ship which I ran away from. “No, and Flint is dead. But there are some of Flint’s hands aboard.” “You see a man…with one…leg?” Ben asked in a tremulous voice, with his pale face and scared eyes. “You mean Silver? He once worked as a cook on the ship.” I added. “Now, he is also on the island to find Flint’s treasure. He wants to kill us and take over the ship.” “Good boy,” he said, “I was on Flint’s ship when he buried (埋) the treasure, he and six strong seamen. But, when he returned, he himself alone, and the six all died. How he made it, not a man except him could make out. It was a battle, a murder, and a sudden death — him against six.” Suddenly, the noise of explosions (爆炸) from an island stopped our talking… —Adapted from Treasure Island 1. What does the underlined word “tremulous” probably mean? A. excited B. loud C. calm D. nervous 2. Who can you infer killed Flint according to the passage? A. Tom. B. Silver. C. Ben Gunn. D. Jim. 3. What can you know from the passage? A. Silver killed Tom with a gun. B. Flint was a man with one leg. C. Ben Gunn didn’t know Silver before. D. Jim was left on the island for three years. 4.

D Feelings are difficult to deal with, especially for a 4-year-old who doesn’t know why his mum won’t let him eat another cake and a 7-year-old who is unhappy because his dad returns to work and has to leave the playground early. For parents, it’s very important to begin teaching children about their feelings as early as possible because their feelings influence (影响) every choice they make. Children who understand their feelings are less likely to act out by getting angry or fighting with others. They can use clear sentences to express their feelings. A good way to help children learn about feelings is to talk about how different roles in TV series may feel. When watching TV, a parent could stop and ask the child, “How do you think he feels right now?” Then, discuss the feelings that person may experience and the reasons. Doing so also teaches empathy (共鸣). Young children think the world centers around them, so it can be an experience for them to learn other people have feelings too. When young children can understand other people’s feelings, they are less likely to do bad things to them. For example, if a child knows that pushing his friend to the ground may make his friend sad, he will do so less. Teaching a child about feelings will help him become mentally (精神上) strong. Children who have the skills to deal with their feelings will be so confident that they can deal with whatever they meet in their life. 1. What is a good way to help children learn about feelings according to the text? A. Asking children to leave the playground early. B. Letting children eat more cakes to make them happy. C. Making children fight with others to express feelings. D. Talking about how different roles in TV series may feel. 2. If a child can understand others’ feelings, which of the following behaviors (行为) is he/she the least likely (最不可能) to do? A. Helping a younger kid who is lost. B. Sharing toys with a friend who is sad. C. Laughing at a friend who fails an exam. D. Saying sorry to a classmate after hurting him/her. 3. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage? A. To describe how children express their feelings. B. To advise parents to teach children about feelings early. C. To explain why children don’t want to leave the playground. D. To tell parents to let children eat as many cookies as they like. 四、根据句意及所给中文、首字母与英文释义，写出句中所缺单词，每空限填一词 1. The robots’ dance Yangge Bot has both modern ______________ (技术) and Chinese culture. 2.
