Have you ever noticed that drinks in convenience stores are always displayed on slanted shelves? You might think it’s just to make the shelves look fuller, but actually, this design has three practical purposes.
First, it makes grabbing drinks easier. The slanted shelf lets the drinks slide forward automatically, so you don’t have to reach deep into the shelf to get the last bottle. This saves time, especially when the store is busy.
Second, it reduces damage to the bottles. If the shelves were flat, workers would have to push bottles to the front repeatedly, which might knock bottles against each other and cause leaks. The slanted design lets gravity do the work, avoiding unnecessary collisions.
Third, it helps with stock management. When the front row of drinks is empty, workers can immediately see that the shelf needs refilling, instead of checking each flat shelf one by one. This improves work efficiency and ensures customers always see full shelves.
So next time you grab a drink from a convenience store, take a second to appreciate this small but smart design!
( )6. Why are drinks displayed on slanted shelves?
A. Only to make shelves look fuller. B. To make drinks easier to grab.
C. To make drinks look colder. D. To reduce the cost of shelves.
( )7. What helps drinks slide forward on slanted shelves?
A. Workers’ pushing. B. Gravity. C. Air pressure. D. Electric motors.
( )8. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Flat shelves are better for stock management.
B. Slanted shelves help workers refill drinks faster.
C. Workers check flat shelves every hour.
D. Customers prefer slanted shelves to flat shelves.
( )9. What does the underlined word “collisions” mean in the passage?
A. 碰撞 B. 泄漏 C. 滑动 D. 倾斜
( )10. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How convenience stores keep drinks cold.
B. Why drinks in convenience stores are expensive.
C. Why drinks are displayed on slanted shelves.
D. How workers manage convenience store shelves.

七、任务型阅读(每小题2分,共10分)
阅读短文,根据要求完成文后的题目。
In July 2023, during the Chengdu World University Games, a small device caught everyone’s attention: a smart translation earbud. It was designed to help foreign athletes and volunteers communicate smoothly without language barriers.
The earbud has three working modes. The “simultaneous translation mode” can translate English, French, Spanish and 12 other languages into Chinese in real time, with a delay of less than 0.5 seconds. The “scene recognition mode” can automatically identify scenarios like medical consultations, sports competitions and catering, and adjust translation vocabulary accordingly. The “offline mode” supports core translation functions even without internet connection.
At the Games, thousands of volunteers used these earbuds to guide foreign athletes, explain match rules and help with daily needs. Maria, a track and field athlete from Brazil, said, “The earbud is amazing! I can talk to volunteers freely now, and I even learned a few Chinese phrases with its help.”
However, some people have concerns. Mr. Li, a volunteer, said, “The earbud is convenient, but it sometimes translates idioms incorrectly. We still need to double-check important information.” Professor Wang, a linguistics expert, added, “Smart devices are tools to assist humans, not to replace them. We should balance technology use and human communication.”
Faced with different opinions, the earbud’s developer said, “Our goal is to help people connect, not to take the place of human interaction.”
1. What did the smart translation earbud do at the Chengdu World University Games? (不超过15词)
2. How many working modes does the earbud have? (不超过5词)
3. What can the earbud do? (举两例即可,不超过20词)
4. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? (不超过10词)
5. How do you like the smart translation earbud? Why? (不超过15词)
