George tried to pull them out but didn’t succeed. When he got home, he put one of the burrs under his microscope (显微镜) and saw that it was covered in tiny hooks (钩) which made it so 12 to remove the burrs from his dog.

People recorded things by tying knots (打结) in ropes and carving (雕刻) shapes on stone walls. One day, the Yellow Emperor discussed an event with a wise man named Cang Jie. Cang took out a piece of knotted rope, but he found it was destroyed (毁坏). It was impossible for him to remember the event clearly. Then he turned to a stone wall, but he could hardly read the shapes on it. They were carved by another person. “The ropes were destroyed because of unknown reasons. And the shapes can only be read by a few people,” the emperor said to Cang. “Do you have better ideas to record things?” Cang thought over the problem for days and nights. On the morning after a heavy snowfall, the Earth was completely white. He saw the footprints of some different animals by accident. These footprints helped him to recognize what animals passed by just now. Cang suddenly had an idea. He picked a stick and drew on the snow-covered ground. At first, he drew a tiger and a bear to show that they passed by. But soon, he found it took him too much time to do that. He realized that he had to make the drawings easier. All the shapes on the stone walls came into his mind. Cang kept making all kinds of shapes on the ground. He focused on drawing. To show the Sun for example he used a circle with a dot in the middle. A half circle and a line made up the Moon. And five lines that were not straight were used to show water. These symbols (符号) shone brightly in the snow. In the end, Cang created a whole set of symbols to record things. People could easily understand these symbols. Since then, they have been able to record their own history in this way. 21.Why couldn’t Cang Jie remember the event clearly? A.The knotted rope was destroyed. B.He forgot to tie knots on the rope. C.The Yellow Emperor didn’t tell him. D.He was too tired to remember anything. 22.How does the writer develop Paragraph 5? A.By stating facts. B.By listing numbers. C.By telling stories. D.By giving examples. 23.Which picture best describes the symbol of the water? A. B. C. D. 24.What can we learn from the story? A.Cang Jie created symbols to record events. B.The Yellow Emperor created written symbols. C.People could read and write well before Cang Jie’s time. D.Animal footprints were used as symbols to record things. 25.What can be the best title of the passage? A.Cang Jie and His Drawings B.Cang Jie and the Yellow Emperor C.The History of Ancient Recording Ways D.The Invention of Writing Symbols in China B Have you been amazed by the robot performances at the opening ceremony of the 15th National Games? Actually, robots are now part of our lives. They can not only play music and dance, but also help us a lot in many ways. Sophia Sophia was “born” in Hong Kong and she’s the world’s first-ever robot citizen! She is a mix of AI and human input, so she can have a real conversation with you and develop her own feelings and actions. Besides this, she actually has many difficult tasks as she plays a vital part in science, medical and technology research. With Sophia’s help, scientists can complete their work more successfully. Who knows-maybe one day you will make friends with a robot like Sophia? Cleaning Robots These small, round objects are becoming increasingly popular in homes to give a helping hand with daily housework like cleaning the floor! All you need to do is to give the robot a plan of the space that it has to cover, program when you want it to start the cleaning process and you’re good to go!Restaurant Robots How stressful is it to work at a busy restaurant with not a lot of help? That’s exactly how millions of waiters must feel: sometimes, they have to wait on hundreds of tables but only have two hands! Thankfully, new robot waiters are a great help. The machines have several trays (托盘) so waiters just need to load the plates and let the robots take them over to the table. In some restaurants, cooking robots can even help cook food. Robots are changing our world in cool and useful ways—from talking like friends to cleaning our homes and serving food. They are not just amazing machines, but also our helpful partners. Who knows what amazing robots we will see next? Maybe the next great robot inventor is you! 26.What makes Sophia different from other robots? A.She is popular with Hong Kong scientists. B.She is the first robot citizen in the world. C.She can play music and dance at important events. D.She can help waiters with service in busy restaurants. 27.What does the underlined word “vital” in paragraph 2 mean? A.Important. B.Funny. C.Simple. D.Social. 28.What do you need to do before making a cleaning robot work? A.Let it make friends with other home robots. B.Check its trays and repair the broken plates. C.Teach it to clean the floor and throw away rubbish. D.Give it a space plan and program the cleaning time. 29.How do restaurant robots help waiters? A.Talk with many customers. B.Wait for people by the table. C.Carry plates and help to cook. D.Invent new cleaning machines. 30.What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards robots? A.Doubtful. B.Worried. C.Positive. D.Negative. C Barcode (条形码) technology makes shopping in stores faster and easier. The idea began in 1971, when an engineer created a special code. Before barcodes, shop workers had to add up prices by hand one by one. But now with barcodes, their work becomes faster. Time has shown that barcodes are a wonderful invention. Today, they are scanned (扫描) more than 6 billion times every day, and around 2 million companies worldwide count on them. A barcode carries lots of useful information, such as where a product is from, its price, and more. It also helps stores record their stock. For example, if a store has 10 boxes of milk and a customer (顾客) buys one, the barcode can help record the number. Then the store owner can know there are 9 boxes left. The next generation of barcodes, like QR codes, can hold even more information. With just a quick scan using a smartphone, they can gather more information about the products. In this way, shoppers can make smarter choices. Barcodes have truly changed our lives. They save us time and make our daily life much more convenient in ways we might not even notice! 31.What benefit did barcodes bring to shopworkers? A.Higher pay. B.More visitors. C.Faster work. D.Newer products. 32.What do the numbers “6 billion” and “2 million” show? A.The history of barcode technology. B.The number of products in a store. C.The cost of making barcodes. D.The success and importance of barcodes. 33.What does the underlined word “stock” mean in Paragraph 3? A.The number of products. B.The amount of money. C.The number of shop workers. D.The number of customers. 34.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A.How QR codes help shoppers choose. B.Why smartphones are important. C.When QR codes were invented. D.What smartphones can do for us. 35.What is the best title for the passage? A.The long history of shopping. B.The invention and use of barcodes. C.The differences between QR codes and barcodes. D.Why barcodes have different lines. 第二节 阅读填空(共5小题,每小题1分,满分5分) 以下是一篇短文,请阅读全文,并从下列六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原文意思完整、连贯。 A Frenchman, Niépce, needed pictures for his business. 36 So he invented a very simple camera in 1826. He used it to take a picture of his garden. That was the first photo. The next important date in the history of photography was in 1837. That year, Daguerre, another Frenchman, took a picture of his reading room. 37 In his picture you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest thing. In 1840, photography was developed once more. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. 38 So it was not easy to take pictures. With the development of science and technology, a young Chinese man, Wang Mengqiu, invented Hover Camera (无人相机). It can record people and things more wonderfully. He once studied at Stanford University in the US. He became famous overnight because of the invention. Hover Camera records movements with a 13MP camera and takes 4K videos. You can use a smartphone to control it. It can follow you, flying or staying in mid-air. 39 The camera is designed to be lightweight and portable. It can be folded (折叠) and stored into a small bag, which makes it convenient to carry. 40 This feature makes the camera both practical and user-friendly. In the future, cameras will be designed better and better. People can take more lively photos and videos. A.In this way, it can get the perfect pictures. B.The invention makes photographers no need to carry any machines. C.When the power is low, it can land safely. D.He used a new kind of camera in a different way. E.But the photographers had to carry many machines. F.However, he was not a good painter. 四、项目情景(共两节,满分15分) 第一节 配对阅读(共5小题,每小题1分,满分5分) 下面的材料A—F分别介绍了国际发明展的六件新展品,请根据Polly、Ellie、Simon、Mike、Doris五位学生的需求选择最适合他们观看的展品,并将其标号。 41 . Simon is a robot fan.

Lu didn’t like reading or writing when he was young. However, he enjoyed making things and decided to keep doing it every day. He began to learn woodworking from his father at an early age. Lu was smart and hard-working, so he soon learned the skill. Lu Ban wanted to fix problems in people’s lives. Lu once invented a kind of tool called “a wooden horse”. He built it out of strong wood, and it could walk by itself to carry people and things. “I hope this can help farmers carry heavy things,” he said. “In the past, they had to stop and rest many times when moving these things.” According to an ancient story, Lu was invited to the state of Chu. The king asked him to make a flying wooden bird. Lu had a hard time making the bird’s wings move, but he kept doing experiments. Finally, the bird flew! The king thought it was amazing and loved it a lot. But one day, the bird flew away, and the king was sad. To cheer up the king, Lu came up with an idea. He invented a wooden kite in the shape of a bird. Surprisingly, when the kite flew, a real bird even followed it! Both landed in front of the king. The sight blew the king away—he shouted, “You’re the best craftsman!” Lu Ban’s clever ideas and new thoughts made people remember him well. He always tried to fix problems with his inventions. As a great craftsman, he showed us that creativity can change the world. 46.What was Lu Ban in the Spring and Autumn period? 47.Who taught Lu Ban woodworking at an early age? 48.Why did Lu Ban invent the wooden horse? 49.How did the king feel when the wooden bird flew away? 50.What other examples can you use to describe creativity? 五、写作(共三节,满分30分) 第一节 语篇填词(共5小题,每小题1分,满分5分) 根据下列语篇以及所给单词的首字母写出所缺单词。在填写答题卡时,要求写出完整单词。 Solar panels (太阳能板) are a great invention that can turn the sun’s h 51 and light into electricity. This technology is clean and green. In many countries, we can see a great number of these panels in sunny places. One of the key b 52 of them is that solar power does not need to burn fossil fuels like coal or oil, which helps to protect our environment. The use of solar energy has a very p 53 effect on our planet. It greatly reduces air pollution and helps in the fight against climate change. For many families, putting solar panels on the roof is a smart choice. A 54 the weather can sometimes be a challenge because solar power needs sunlight, it is still a great energy source for our future.

People often made 62 (they) round, square or with eight sides. Some even looked like pumpkins, flowers or turtle shells (乌龟壳). Even today, many people are 63 (benefit) from this old and clever idea.

People recorded things by tying knots (打结) in ropes and carving (雕刻) shapes on stone walls. One day, the Yellow Emperor discussed an event with a wise man named Cang Jie. Cang took out a piece of knotted rope, but he found it was destroyed (毁坏). It was impossible for him to remember the event clearly. Then he turned to a stone wall, but he could hardly read the shapes on it. They were carved by another person. “The ropes were destroyed because of unknown reasons. And the shapes can only be read by a few people,” the emperor said to Cang. “Do you have better ideas to record things?” Cang thought over the problem for days and nights. On the morning after a heavy snowfall, the Earth was completely white. He saw the footprints of some different animals by accident. These footprints helped him to recognize what animals passed by just now. Cang suddenly had an idea. He picked a stick and drew on the snow-covered ground. At first, he drew a tiger and a bear to show that they passed by. But soon, he found it took him too much time to do that. He realized that he had to make the drawings easier. All the shapes on the stone walls came into his mind. Cang kept making all kinds of shapes on the ground. He focused on drawing. To show the Sun for example he used a circle with a dot in the middle. A half circle and a line made up the Moon. And five lines that were not straight were used to show water. These symbols (符号) shone brightly in the snow. In the end, Cang created a whole set of symbols to record things. People could easily understand these symbols. Since then, they have been able to record their own history in this way. 21.Why couldn’t Cang Jie remember the event clearly? A.The knotted rope was destroyed. B.He forgot to tie knots on the rope. C.The Yellow Emperor didn’t tell him. D.He was too tired to remember anything. 22.How does the writer develop Paragraph 5? A.By stating facts. B.By listing numbers. C.By telling stories. D.By giving examples. 23.Which picture best describes the symbol of the water? A. B. C. D. 24.What can we learn from the story? A.Cang Jie created symbols to record events. B.The Yellow Emperor created written symbols. C.People could read and write well before Cang Jie’s time. D.Animal footprints were used as symbols to record things. 25.What can be the best title of the passage? A.Cang Jie and His Drawings B.Cang Jie and the Yellow Emperor C.The History of Ancient Recording Ways D.The Invention of Writing Symbols in China 【答案】21.A 22.D 23.C 24.A 25.D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了在没有文字的黄帝时期,仓颉因结绳记事、石刻记事的缺陷,受动物脚印启发,创造出一套文字符号来记录事物的故事。 【详解】21.第二段提到:“Cang took out a piece of knotted rope, but he found it was destroyed. It was impossible for him to remember the event clearly.”,仓颉用来记事的结绳被毁坏了,导致他无法清晰回忆事件。 22.第五段提到:“He focused on drawing. To show the Sun for example he used a circle with a dot in the middle. A half circle and a line made up the Moon. And five lines that were not straight were used to show water.”,第五段通过“太阳、月亮、水”的符号画法举例,说明仓颉如何简化图形创造符号,因此是“通过举例”展开段落。 23.第五段提到:“And five lines that were not straight were used to show water.”,说明水的符号是“五条不直的线条”,选项C的图案是类似水流的曲线,符合描述。 24.第六段提到:“In the end, Cang created a whole set of symbols to record things. People could easily understand these symbols.”,明确说明仓颉创造了符号来记录事件。 25.文章围绕“仓颉创造文字符号”的过程展开,核心是中国早期文字符号的发明。D选项的《中国文字符号的发明》,既点明了核心事件,也涵盖了故事背景,是最贴切的标题。 B Have you been amazed by the robot performances at the opening ceremony of the 15th National Games?

The idea began in 1971, when an engineer created a special code. Before barcodes, shop workers had to add up prices by hand one by one. But now with barcodes, their work becomes faster. Time has shown that barcodes are a wonderful invention. Today, they are scanned (扫描) more than 6 billion times every day, and around 2 million companies worldwide count on them. A barcode carries lots of useful information, such as where a product is from, its price, and more. It also helps stores record their stock. For example, if a store has 10 boxes of milk and a customer (顾客) buys one, the barcode can help record the number. Then the store owner can know there are 9 boxes left. The next generation of barcodes, like QR codes, can hold even more information. With just a quick scan using a smartphone, they can gather more information about the products. In this way, shoppers can make smarter choices. Barcodes have truly changed our lives. They save us time and make our daily life much more convenient in ways we might not even notice! 31.What benefit did barcodes bring to shopworkers? A.Higher pay. B.More visitors. C.Faster work. D.Newer products. 32.What do the numbers “6 billion” and “2 million” show? A.The history of barcode technology. B.The number of products in a store. C.The cost of making barcodes. D.The success and importance of barcodes. 33.What does the underlined word “stock” mean in Paragraph 3? A.The number of products. B.The amount of money. C.The number of shop workers.

The results show that digital payment is the most popular, with 35% of students choosing it. High-speed trains get 30% for their speed and comfort. Online shopping takes up 25% as it helps buy things from home. Shared bikes, at 10%, are seen as good for short trips. Among them, I like shared bikes best.
