But in some places, people are trying carrying out the idea of paying workers the same money for working just four days a week. The idea isn’t new but businesses have been slow to try it. They may be worried about getting less work for their money. But the results of a last year’s test, run by the University of Cambridge, suggest the move may be good for both businesses and workers. Last June, 61 UK companies agreed to try the four-day work week when paying their workers the same money. In return, they asked their workers to try to do as much in four days as they usually did in five. The test ran for six months, and turned out to be good for most businesses. During the test, some companies cut meetings, or made sure they were shorter. Others used technology to help workers get more done quickly. Some companies created a “focus time” so workers could work on just one thing without being interrupted (打扰).Therefore, workers worked faster and better. Besides, the companies made more money. Most of the workers were satisfied (满意的) with the four-day work week. Some people said they were able to get more training and take care of things at home. Others said they were able to spend more time with their families. At the end of the test. ninety-two percent of the companies involved (参与) said they planned to keep the four-day work week. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。注意1-4小题答案不超过5个字。第5题字数不限。 1. According to the results of a last year’s test, may the move be good for businesses or workers? _____________________________ 2. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to? _____________________________ 3. How long did the test run? _____________________________ 4. When the test was finished, how many companies involved planned to keep the four-day work week? _____________________________ 5. What do you think of the four-day work week? Why? (合理即可) _____________________________ 1. Both. 2. The meetings. 3. For six months. 4. 92%/ninety-two percent. 5. Meaningful/Good. Because the workers are able to spend more time with their families. 言之有理即可 综合填空 Recycling is good for the environment. It can also do good to a community in 1 (surprise) ways. Mateo Lange, 15, knows this well. On weekends, you’ll find him separating things like glass and plastic bottles 2 different groups in his hometown of Indian River (印第安河), Michigan (密歇根州), America, where he leads a community recycling program. Mateo started the program in 2020. He was 11 and in 3 (six) grade, playing baseball with the Northern Michigan Cyclones. The team was new and needed money to travel to tournaments (锦标赛). Mateo suggested 4 plan. “There were cans and bottles always thrown around the road,” he tells TIME for Kids. In Michigan, these can be collected 5 changed for money. With his dad’s help, Mateo started a bottle and can drive. It raised $7,500. “We built up so much money during just a few weeks,” he says, “So I said,” “Why don’t we keep this 6 (go) as long as we can?” Since then, his recycling effort has raised $350,000 and helped at 7 (little) 50 local youth groups. It has also prevented 8 (much)than 2 million bottles and cans from littering the roadside and polluting Michigan’s lakes and rivers. “It’s kept our community a lot 9 (clean),” he says. Mateo believes everyone can—and should—be of service. “Just do a little bit 10 (help) make the world a little bit of a better place,” he says. “Be creative,” he adds, “Have an idea and build on it.” Keys:surprising;into;the sixth;a; and ;going;least;more; cleaner;to help 阅读理解 Do you have true friends? Do you want to know better between you and your friends? There are three different kinds of friends: “pest friends”, “guest friends”, and “best friends”. The first kind of friends is almost an acquaintance (熟人) . All you usually know about them is their names. You may meet this kind of friends at school, at work, or on the bus, but you don’t miss them when they’re not around. When this kind of friends does something bad, you don’t tell them. That is why they are called “pest friends”. The second kind of friends could also be called “social partners”. They are closer than acquaintances, but not as close as true friends. You know their names, a little of what they like or dislike, and a little of their family histories. You may have the same interest and often do something together in your free time, but you don’t talk about anything deep, such as your wishes or dreams, and they don’t open up to you how they really feel. The last kind of friends, the “best friend”, is the one you know the deepest. You’re like family members, and know everything about each other. You have no problem staying at each other’s houses, and you share your deepest feelings and thoughts. They will help you when you’re wrong. Sometimes they may not be perfect (完美的) , but at least they will always care about you, and never do anything on purpose (故意地) to hurt you. We all have our pest, guest, and best friends. We should value (重视) all friendships and remember, all best friends start out as just acquaintances. 41．How many kinds of friends are there in the writer’s opinion? A．One B．Two C．Three D．Four 42．If you and John are neighbors and classmates, and do things together, but don’t share your feelings, you are “_______”. A．pest friends B．guest friends C．best friends D．true friends 43．The fourth paragraph mainly tells us ________. A．how to make a best friend B．how to learn from your best friends C．what a best friend is D．a best friend can help you when you are wrong 44．Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? ①= Paragraph l   ②= Para 2   ③=Para 3   ④=Para 4   ⑤=Para 5 A．①/②③④⑤ B．①/②③④/⑤ C．①/②/③④⑤ D．①/②③/④/⑤ CBCB 信息还原 Have you ever imagined a car that can drive itself? Self-driving technology is making this dream come true. Self-driving cars use many smart tools to “see” the world. __1__ These cameras work like eyes, helping the car recognize traffic lights, signs, and other vehicles. Computers inside the cars quickly process all this information and decide how to move, turn, or stop. This technology can make driving much safer. __2__ Every year, thousands of accidents happen because people get tired, distracted, or make mistakes. Self-driving cars can react faster than humans and always follow traffic rules. Besides safety, self-driving cars can help people who can't drive, like the elderly or disabled. The first self-driving cars appeared in the 1980s, but they were very basic. __3__ They could only drive slowly on simple roads. In 2009, Google started a famous self-driving car project. This made other companies, like Tesla and Uber, join the race. Over the years, technology improved a lot. Today, some cars can drive by themselves on highways, park automatically (自动地), and even change lanes without a driver's help.​ Will we all have self-driving cars soon? __4__ Some experts believe that by 2030, most new cars might have self-driving features. However, there are still challenges. For example, self-driving cars need to work well in all weather, from heavy rain to thick fog. Companies are testing new ideas, such as using 5G technology to make cars “talk” to each other and to traffic lights. Self-driving technology is changing our lives in amazing ways. __5__ Whether you're interested in coding, engineering, or problem-solving, there's a place for you in this field. Maybe one day, you'll help create the next generation of self-driving cars that are even safer and smarter! A. They use cameras to take pictures of the road and other cars. B.

Chinese paper cutting has a history of more than 1500 years. It was widespread particularly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. People often beautify (美化) their homes with paper cuttings when they celebrate something happy, especially for the Spring Festival. More and more people are interested in it. However, many traditional arts are losing nowadays, because some of them have been replaced by new machines and specific products. I feel so sorry about the losing arts, in my opinion, they are so classic and their charm will never fade away. Take my grandma for example. She is good at paper cutting which was inherited from her mother. But when comes to my mother’s generation, paper cutting seems to be kicked out. Fewer people need it, so my mother doesn’t learn this skill. The paper cutting is losing in my family. When I found my grandma had this skill, I was so surprised and curious about it. I asked my grandma to teach me this skill. During the progress, I found this art was so great. I was attracted by it. I think some traditional arts like paper cutting should be kept. They are the smriti(传承) of Chinese art. 1．During when was paper cutting widespread? ________________________________________________________ 2．How do people often celebrate happy things with paper cuttings? ________________________________________________________ 3．What were many traditional arts replaced by nowadays? ________________________________________________________ 4．Why doesn’t writer’s mother learn paper cutting? ________________________________________________________ 5．Does the writer think paper cutting should be kept? ________________________________________________________ 【答案】1．The Ming and Qing Dynasties. 2．By beautifying their homes./They beautify their homes. 3．New machines and specific products. 4．Because fewer people need it. 5．Yes, he/she does./Yes. 新初二8A Unit2 School life预习（第二课时）+阅读专练 【学习目标】 1、学习8A U2 Grammar重点句型，掌握量的比较以及as...as....的用法； 2、阅读组合训练，提升阅读理解力。 【学习过程】 Grammar 事物数量比较&as...as 考点1：两者之间在数量上的比较 more ... than ... 表示 “...比...多” fewer ... than... 或 less... than ... 表示“...比...少” Millie has less rice than Daniel.

They can help people with many housework and bring convenience to daily life. One kind of AI robot is the cleaning robot. It can move around the house by itself and clean the floor. Some advanced cleaning robots can even avoid obstacles and clean under the sofa or bed. This saves people a lot of time and energy in cleaning. Another kind is the companion robot. It can chat with family members, tell stories to children and even play games with them. For the elderly who live alone, companion robots can also remind them to take medicine on time and call for help in case of emergency. There are also cooking robots that can help people prepare simple meals. Users just need to put the ingredients into the robot and set the cooking time and mode. Then the robot will cook delicious food by itself. However, AI robots also have some shortcomings. For example, some robots are expensive and not everyone can afford them. Besides, there may be problems with the robot's system, which may cause it to work incorrectly. Despite these problems, AI robots are still developing rapidly. It is believed that in the future, they will play a more important role in family life and bring more surprises to people. 23. What can cleaning robots do according to the passage? A. Chat with family members. B. Clean the floor and avoid obstacles. C. Cook delicious food. D. Remind the elderly to take medicine. 24. Who can companion robots help a lot? A. Students who need to do homework. B. Doctors who work in hospitals. C. The elderly living alone. D. Chefs who cook in restaurants. 25. What is the shortcoming of AI robots mentioned in the passage? A. They are too heavy to move. B. They are expensive for some people. C. They can't work for a long time. D. They are difficult to use. 【答案】23. B 24. C 25. B 阅读理解二 Brain-Computer Interface: A New Technology Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a new technology that connects the human brain with a computer. It allows people to control computers or other devices directly with their thoughts, without using hands or other body parts. The working principle of BCI is not complicated. First, sensors are placed on the user's head to collect the electrical signals produced by the brain. Then, these signals are sent to a computer. The computer processes and analyzes the signals with special software, and then translates them into commands that can control devices such as computers, wheelchairs or even robots. BCI has great potential in many fields. In the medical field, it can help people with disabilities. For example, people who are paralyzed and can't move their bodies can use BCI to control wheelchairs to move around, or to communicate with others by typing on a computer screen with their thoughts. In the field of entertainment, BCI can bring new experiences to users. For example, in some video games, players can control the characters in the game directly with their thoughts, which makes the game more immersive. However, BCI still faces many challenges. One of the biggest challenges is the accuracy of signal collection and translation. The electrical signals produced by the brain are very weak and easily affected by external factors, which may lead to incorrect commands. Another challenge is the size and comfort of the sensors. Current sensors are often large and uncomfortable to wear for a long time. With the development of science and technology, it is believed that these problems will be solved gradually. BCI will become more and more mature and be widely used in people's lives in the future. 29. What is the function of BCI? A. It can help people remember things better. B. It can connect the human brain with a computer. C. It can treat all kinds of diseases. D. It can make people become smarter. 30. How does BCI work according to the passage? ① Sensors collect brain signals. ② The computer translates signals into commands. ③ Signals are sent to the computer. ④ Commands control devices. A. ①②③④ B. ①③②④ C. ③①②④ D. ③②①④ 31. Which field can BCI help according to the passage? A. Medical field. B. Education field. C. Agriculture field. D. Construction field. 32. What is the challenge of BCI mentioned in the passage? A. It is too expensive for most people. B. It is difficult to learn how to use. C. The signal collection and translation are not accurate enough. D. It can't be used by children. 【答案】29. B 30. B 31. A 32. C 信息还原 We all know fights at school sometimes happen. But how can you keep away from a fight? 37 Keep calm (冷静的). Sometimes, you feel so angry that you really want to teach somebody a lesson. But being angry isn’t the answer to problems. 38 It may bring you more problems. In the school, everyone will be punished (惩罚) if he gets into a fight. There are no winners in a fight. Shout loudly. If you know someone is coming up behind you to attack (攻击), turn to the person and say “stop” loudly before walking away. 39 If the person doesn’t stop, shout for help by calling out the name of a teacher around you. Learn to say no. Your friend may ask you to join in a fight, but helping him fight is not really helpful to him. 40 Also, you can tell him if he gets into a fight, he may get hurt and be punished. Then, try to learn why he wants a fight and help him find a right way to work out the problem. 41 This is a school rule. We must follow it. A．A fight can’t help, either. B．Here are some ways to help you. C．Here are too many rules at school. D．You must try to ask him not to fight. E．Loud voice can usually make the attacker calm down. F．Remember, don’t fight at school. 【答案】37．B 38．A 39．E 40．D 41．F 综合填空 Hello, I’m Tom. I come from Cuba (古巴), but recently I moved to China. I started a new school life here.

I really hate them!” shouted Tom angrily. Tara and Ziggy looked at their friend. They couldn’t believe it. He was really angry! “Arjun is OK now,” said Tara, trying to calm Tom down. The three friends were in the park after school. They were talking about their friend Arjun. Arjun was the youngest in the class and today two bullies (横行霸道者) pushed him against a locker and hurt him. Arjun fell and cut his head. Now he has five stitches (划痕) in his forehead. Heston High School was a nice, peaceful (平静的) place until Brian and Mark arrived a few months ago. Brian and Mark were bullies and their favourite trouble place was the school cloakroom (卫生间). That morning they hurt Arjun, maybe because he was smaller and younger than everyone else in the class. The teachers knew that there were some bullying incidents (事件) at school. But most kids didn’t want to report the incidents. So bullying at Heston High wasn’t an official problem. “Brian and Mark must pay!” repeated Tom. He was walking around in circles and hitting the palm of his left hand with his right fist. “Can’t you see? You’re behaving like the bullies,” Tara said sadly. Ziggy looked at Tara. He knew Tom very well. Tom wasn’t usually violent (暴力的). In fact, he usually solved problems in a polite way. Tara hated bullies and she didn’t like Tom being so angry. Tom hated bullies, too. It made him afraid. “No, I’m not. I’m not like Brian and Mark,” replied Tom. “And I’m going to stop them,” he said. “Bullying is not cool,” said Ziggy, waving his arms like he was dancing. “We have to tell someone about this,” said Tara. “Arjun was hurt.” During the incident, Arjun cut his head. When the bullies saw the blood (血), they ran away quickly. Arjun called for help and a teacher came and took him straight to the hospital. But Arjun didn’t tell the teacher about the bullies. When the head teacher asked him what happened, he just said, “I fell and cut my head.”                                               Adapted from The Anti-Bully Squad 31．Who were the bullies?

CACC 任务型阅读（每题不超过8个字） In many Chinese cities, primary and middle schools have made class breaks longer from 10 to 15 minutes since the fall semester (学期) started. The governments (政府) want students and teachers to do more outdoor activities. Before, Chinese schools usually had 10-minute breaks. But it was not enough time for students, especially those in tall buildings, to go outside and play. Sometimes, schools didn’t let students leave the classroom during breaks because they were worried about safety. Now, local education departments (部门) are trying to make school schedules better. They want students to have at least 30 minutes of exercise every day. In Beijing, primary schools’ morning and afternoon times haven’t changed. Middle schools end five minutes later. In Wuxi, Jiangsu, schools have 15-minute breaks and one PE class every day. Students must do at least 100 minutes of exercise at school. The education officer said this helps students play outside and talk to each other. They want to give break time back to students. A Qingdao primary school has many outdoor games like jump rope and hula hoop, and indoor puzzles during 15-minute breaks. In May, a fitness test showed that 47 percent of Qingdao students got “excellent” or “good” fitness grades, 10 percent more than before. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 33．Who do the governments want to do more outdoor activities? _______________________________________________. 34．Why didn’t schools let students leave the classroom during breaks before? _______________________________________________. 35．In which city do the middle schools end five minutes later? _______________________________________________. 36．How long do students in Wuxi, Jiangsu need to exercise at school? _______________________________________________. 37．What outdoor games are mentioned (提到) in a Qingdao primary school? _______________________________________________. 31. Students and teachers. 34．Because they were worried about safety. 35．In Beijing. 36．At least 100 minutes. 37．Jump rope and hula hoop. 课后练习 一、单选 1．This is ________ shopping bag.

But in some places, people are trying carrying out the idea of paying workers the same money for working just four days a week. The idea isn’t new but businesses have been slow to try it. They may be worried about getting less work for their money. But the results of a last year’s test, run by the University of Cambridge, suggest the move may be good for both businesses and workers. Last June, 61 UK companies agreed to try the four-day work week when paying their workers the same money. In return, they asked their workers to try to do as much in four days as they usually did in five. The test ran for six months, and turned out to be good for most businesses. During the test, some companies cut meetings, or made sure they were shorter. Others used technology to help workers get more done quickly. Some companies created a “focus time” so workers could work on just one thing without being interrupted (打扰).Therefore, workers worked faster and better. Besides, the companies made more money. Most of the workers were satisfied (满意的) with the four-day work week. Some people said they were able to get more training and take care of things at home. Others said they were able to spend more time with their families. At the end of the test. ninety-two percent of the companies involved (参与) said they planned to keep the four-day work week. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。注意1-4小题答案不超过5个字。第5题字数不限。 1. According to the results of a last year’s test, may the move be good for businesses or workers? _____________________________ 2. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to? _____________________________ 3. How long did the test run? _____________________________ 4. When the test was finished, how many companies involved planned to keep the four-day work week? _____________________________ 5. What do you think of the four-day work week? Why? (合理即可) _____________________________ 综合填空 Recycling is good for the environment. It can also do good to a community in 1 (surprise) ways. Mateo Lange, 15, knows this well. On weekends, you’ll find him separating things like glass and plastic bottles 2 different groups in his hometown of Indian River (印第安河), Michigan (密歇根州), America, where he leads a community recycling program. Mateo started the program in 2020. He was 11 and in 3 (six) grade, playing baseball with the Northern Michigan Cyclones. The team was new and needed money to travel to tournaments (锦标赛). Mateo suggested 4 plan. “There were cans and bottles always thrown around the road,” he tells TIME for Kids. In Michigan, these can be collected 5 changed for money. With his dad’s help, Mateo started a bottle and can drive. It raised $7,500. “We built up so much money during just a few weeks,” he says, “So I said,” “Why don’t we keep this 6 (go) as long as we can?” Since then, his recycling effort has raised $350,000 and helped at 7 (little) 50 local youth groups. It has also prevented 8 (much)than 2 million bottles and cans from littering the roadside and polluting Michigan’s lakes and rivers. “It’s kept our community a lot 9 (clean),” he says. Mateo believes everyone can—and should—be of service. “Just do a little bit 10 (help) make the world a little bit of a better place,” he says. “Be creative,” he adds, “Have an idea and build on it.” 阅读理解 Do you have true friends? Do you want to know better between you and your friends? There are three different kinds of friends: “pest friends”, “guest friends”, and “best friends”. The first kind of friends is almost an acquaintance (熟人) . All you usually know about them is their names. You may meet this kind of friends at school, at work, or on the bus, but you don’t miss them when they’re not around. When this kind of friends does something bad, you don’t tell them. That is why they are called “pest friends”. The second kind of friends could also be called “social partners”. They are closer than acquaintances, but not as close as true friends. You know their names, a little of what they like or dislike, and a little of their family histories. You may have the same interest and often do something together in your free time, but you don’t talk about anything deep, such as your wishes or dreams, and they don’t open up to you how they really feel. The last kind of friends, the “best friend”, is the one you know the deepest. You’re like family members, and know everything about each other. You have no problem staying at each other’s houses, and you share your deepest feelings and thoughts. They will help you when you’re wrong. Sometimes they may not be perfect (完美的) , but at least they will always care about you, and never do anything on purpose (故意地) to hurt you. We all have our pest, guest, and best friends. We should value (重视) all friendships and remember, all best friends start out as just acquaintances. 41．How many kinds of friends are there in the writer’s opinion? A．One B．Two C．Three D．Four 42．If you and John are neighbors and classmates, and do things together, but don’t share your feelings, you are “_______”. A．pest friends B．guest friends C．best friends D．true friends 43．The fourth paragraph mainly tells us ________. A．how to make a best friend B．how to learn from your best friends C．what a best friend is D．a best friend can help you when you are wrong 44．Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? ①= Paragraph l   ②= Para 2   ③=Para 3   ④=Para 4   ⑤=Para 5 A．①/②③④⑤ B．①/②③④/⑤ C．①/②/③④⑤ D．①/②③/④/⑤ 信息还原 Have you ever imagined a car that can drive itself? Self-driving technology is making this dream come true. Self-driving cars use many smart tools to “see” the world. __1__ These cameras work like eyes, helping the car recognize traffic lights, signs, and other vehicles. Computers inside the cars quickly process all this information and decide how to move, turn, or stop. This technology can make driving much safer. __2__ Every year, thousands of accidents happen because people get tired, distracted, or make mistakes. Self-driving cars can react faster than humans and always follow traffic rules. Besides safety, self-driving cars can help people who can't drive, like the elderly or disabled. The first self-driving cars appeared in the 1980s, but they were very basic. __3__ They could only drive slowly on simple roads. In 2009, Google started a famous self-driving car project. This made other companies, like Tesla and Uber, join the race. Over the years, technology improved a lot. Today, some cars can drive by themselves on highways, park automatically (自动地), and even change lanes without a driver's help.​ Will we all have self-driving cars soon? __4__ Some experts believe that by 2030, most new cars might have self-driving features. However, there are still challenges. For example, self-driving cars need to work well in all weather, from heavy rain to thick fog. Companies are testing new ideas, such as using 5G technology to make cars “talk” to each other and to traffic lights. Self-driving technology is changing our lives in amazing ways. __5__ Whether you're interested in coding, engineering, or problem-solving, there's a place for you in this field. Maybe one day, you'll help create the next generation of self-driving cars that are even safer and smarter! A. They use cameras to take pictures of the road and other cars. B. Many young people enjoy playing games in self-driving cars. C. Most accidents happen because people make mistakes while driving. D. Scientists are working hard to make self-driving cars better every day. E. People spent lots of money buying the first self-driving cars. F. At that time, they could only drive in very short distances and at slow speeds. G. It's an exciting field that needs more young people to join. 课后练习 一、单项选择 1. They seem very tired after a long walk.

Chinese paper cutting has a history of more than 1500 years. It was widespread particularly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. People often beautify (美化) their homes with paper cuttings when they celebrate something happy, especially for the Spring Festival. More and more people are interested in it. However, many traditional arts are losing nowadays, because some of them have been replaced by new machines and specific products. I feel so sorry about the losing arts, in my opinion, they are so classic and their charm will never fade away. Take my grandma for example. She is good at paper cutting which was inherited from her mother. But when comes to my mother’s generation, paper cutting seems to be kicked out. Fewer people need it, so my mother doesn’t learn this skill. The paper cutting is losing in my family. When I found my grandma had this skill, I was so surprised and curious about it. I asked my grandma to teach me this skill. During the progress, I found this art was so great. I was attracted by it. I think some traditional arts like paper cutting should be kept. They are the smriti(传承) of Chinese art. 1．During when was paper cutting widespread? ________________________________________________________ 2．How do people often celebrate happy things with paper cuttings? ________________________________________________________ 3．What were many traditional arts replaced by nowadays? ________________________________________________________ 4．Why doesn’t writer’s mother learn paper cutting? ________________________________________________________ 5．Does the writer think paper cutting should be kept? ________________________________________________________ 新初二8A Unit2 School life预习（第二课时）+阅读专练 【学习目标】 1、学习8A U2 Grammar重点句型，掌握量的比较以及as...as....的用法； 2、阅读组合训练，提升阅读理解力。 【学习过程】 Grammar 事物数量比较&as...as 考点1：两者之间在数量上的比较 more ... than ... 表示 “...比...多” fewer ... than... 或 less... than ... 表示“...比...少” Millie has less rice than Daniel.

On the way, I met an old man, a bum (流浪汉). He stopped me as I passed by. He asked me if I was running away from home, I suppose because I looked so young. I told him, “Not exactly, sir.” The bum told me that he had something great to share with me. He said, “There are two things that I want to teach you, young man, and they are these: No. 1 is to never judge a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you.” He followed with, “I’ll bet（打赌）you think I’m a bum, don’t you, young man?” I said, “Well, uh, yes, I guess so, sir.” “Well, young man, I’ve got a little surprise for you. I am one of the richest men in the world. I have probably everything any man could ever want. But a year ago, my wife passed away. I realized to be a bum on the streets. So, you see, don’t ever judge a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you.” “No. 2 is learn how to read, my boy. For there is only one thing that people can’t take away from you, and that is your wisdom.” 根据上面短文内容，回答问题。(每个小题的答案不超过 6 个单词) 1.What was the writer’s dream when he was fourteen? 2.Who did the writer meet on his way? 3.When did the man begin to live like a bum in the street? 4.Why is it wrong to judge a book by its cover according to the passage? 5.What is the only thing that people can’t take away from a person? 阅读理解一 AI Robots Enter Family Life In recent years, AI robots have become more and more popular in family life. They can help people with many housework and bring convenience to daily life. One kind of AI robot is the cleaning robot. It can move around the house by itself and clean the floor. Some advanced cleaning robots can even avoid obstacles and clean under the sofa or bed. This saves people a lot of time and energy in cleaning. Another kind is the companion robot. It can chat with family members, tell stories to children and even play games with them. For the elderly who live alone, companion robots can also remind them to take medicine on time and call for help in case of emergency. There are also cooking robots that can help people prepare simple meals. Users just need to put the ingredients into the robot and set the cooking time and mode. Then the robot will cook delicious food by itself. However, AI robots also have some shortcomings. For example, some robots are expensive and not everyone can afford them. Besides, there may be problems with the robot's system, which may cause it to work incorrectly. Despite these problems, AI robots are still developing rapidly. It is believed that in the future, they will play a more important role in family life and bring more surprises to people. 23. What can cleaning robots do according to the passage? A. Chat with family members. B. Clean the floor and avoid obstacles. C. Cook delicious food. D. Remind the elderly to take medicine. 24. Who can companion robots help a lot? A. Students who need to do homework. B. Doctors who work in hospitals. C. The elderly living alone. D. Chefs who cook in restaurants. 25. What is the shortcoming of AI robots mentioned in the passage? A. They are too heavy to move. B. They are expensive for some people. C. They can't work for a long time. D.

It allows people to control computers or other devices directly with their thoughts, without using hands or other body parts. The working principle of BCI is not complicated. First, sensors are placed on the user's head to collect the electrical signals produced by the brain. Then, these signals are sent to a computer. The computer processes and analyzes the signals with special software, and then translates them into commands that can control devices such as computers, wheelchairs or even robots. BCI has great potential in many fields. In the medical field, it can help people with disabilities. For example, people who are paralyzed and can't move their bodies can use BCI to control wheelchairs to move around, or to communicate with others by typing on a computer screen with their thoughts. In the field of entertainment, BCI can bring new experiences to users. For example, in some video games, players can control the characters in the game directly with their thoughts, which makes the game more immersive. However, BCI still faces many challenges. One of the biggest challenges is the accuracy of signal collection and translation. The electrical signals produced by the brain are very weak and easily affected by external factors, which may lead to incorrect commands. Another challenge is the size and comfort of the sensors. Current sensors are often large and uncomfortable to wear for a long time. With the development of science and technology, it is believed that these problems will be solved gradually. BCI will become more and more mature and be widely used in people's lives in the future. 29. What is the function of BCI? A. It can help people remember things better. B. It can connect the human brain with a computer. C. It can treat all kinds of diseases. D. It can make people become smarter. 30. How does BCI work according to the passage? ① Sensors collect brain signals. ② The computer translates signals into commands. ③ Signals are sent to the computer. ④ Commands control devices. A. ①②③④ B. ①③②④ C. ③①②④ D. ③②①④ 31. Which field can BCI help according to the passage? A. Medical field. B. Education field. C. Agriculture field. D. Construction field. 32. What is the challenge of BCI mentioned in the passage? A. It is too expensive for most people. B. It is difficult to learn how to use. C. The signal collection and translation are not accurate enough. D. It can't be used by children. 信息还原 We all know fights at school sometimes happen. But how can you keep away from a fight? 37 Keep calm (冷静的). Sometimes, you feel so angry that you really want to teach somebody a lesson. But being angry isn’t the answer to problems. 38 It may bring you more problems. In the school, everyone will be punished (惩罚) if he gets into a fight. There are no winners in a fight. Shout loudly. If you know someone is coming up behind you to attack (攻击), turn to the person and say “stop” loudly before walking away. 39 If the person doesn’t stop, shout for help by calling out the name of a teacher around you. Learn to say no. Your friend may ask you to join in a fight, but helping him fight is not really helpful to him. 40 Also, you can tell him if he gets into a fight, he may get hurt and be punished. Then, try to learn why he wants a fight and help him find a right way to work out the problem. 41 This is a school rule. We must follow it. A．A fight can’t help, either. B．Here are some ways to help you. C．Here are too many rules at school. D．You must try to ask him not to fight. E．Loud voice can usually make the attacker calm down. F．Remember, don’t fight at school. 综合填空 Hello, I’m Tom. I come from Cuba (古巴), but recently I moved to China. I started a new school life here.

I really hate them!” shouted Tom angrily. Tara and Ziggy looked at their friend. They couldn’t believe it. He was really angry! “Arjun is OK now,” said Tara, trying to calm Tom down. The three friends were in the park after school. They were talking about their friend Arjun. Arjun was the youngest in the class and today two bullies (横行霸道者) pushed him against a locker and hurt him. Arjun fell and cut his head. Now he has five stitches (划痕) in his forehead. Heston High School was a nice, peaceful (平静的) place until Brian and Mark arrived a few months ago. Brian and Mark were bullies and their favourite trouble place was the school cloakroom (卫生间). That morning they hurt Arjun, maybe because he was smaller and younger than everyone else in the class. The teachers knew that there were some bullying incidents (事件) at school. But most kids didn’t want to report the incidents. So bullying at Heston High wasn’t an official problem. “Brian and Mark must pay!” repeated Tom. He was walking around in circles and hitting the palm of his left hand with his right fist. “Can’t you see? You’re behaving like the bullies,” Tara said sadly. Ziggy looked at Tara. He knew Tom very well. Tom wasn’t usually violent (暴力的). In fact, he usually solved problems in a polite way. Tara hated bullies and she didn’t like Tom being so angry. Tom hated bullies, too. It made him afraid. “No, I’m not. I’m not like Brian and Mark,” replied Tom. “And I’m going to stop them,” he said. “Bullying is not cool,” said Ziggy, waving his arms like he was dancing. “We have to tell someone about this,” said Tara. “Arjun was hurt.” During the incident, Arjun cut his head. When the bullies saw the blood (血), they ran away quickly. Arjun called for help and a teacher came and took him straight to the hospital. But Arjun didn’t tell the teacher about the bullies. When the head teacher asked him what happened, he just said, “I fell and cut my head.”                                               Adapted from The Anti-Bully Squad 31．Who were the bullies?

The governments (政府) want students and teachers to do more outdoor activities. Before, Chinese schools usually had 10-minute breaks. But it was not enough time for students, especially those in tall buildings, to go outside and play. Sometimes, schools didn’t let students leave the classroom during breaks because they were worried about safety. Now, local education departments (部门) are trying to make school schedules better. They want students to have at least 30 minutes of exercise every day. In Beijing, primary schools’ morning and afternoon times haven’t changed. Middle schools end five minutes later. In Wuxi, Jiangsu, schools have 15-minute breaks and one PE class every day. Students must do at least 100 minutes of exercise at school. The education officer said this helps students play outside and talk to each other. They want to give break time back to students. A Qingdao primary school has many outdoor games like jump rope and hula hoop, and indoor puzzles during 15-minute breaks. In May, a fitness test showed that 47 percent of Qingdao students got “excellent” or “good” fitness grades, 10 percent more than before. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 33．Who do the governments want to do more outdoor activities? _______________________________________________. 34．Why didn’t schools let students leave the classroom during breaks before? _______________________________________________. 35．In which city do the middle schools end five minutes later? _______________________________________________. 36．How long do students in Wuxi, Jiangsu need to exercise at school? _______________________________________________. 37．What outdoor games are mentioned (提到) in a Qingdao primary school? _______________________________________________. 课后练习 一、单选 1．This is ________ shopping bag.
