But not all of them. Every once in a while, a silly idea appears. Of the four real inventions below, which do you think will disappear? And which would you maybe want for your very own? Fish on wheels Common fish tanks (鱼缸) are just sitting there. That’s a huge problem for a pet fish that wants to see the world (or at least the next room). This invention gives fish wheels. A fish tank sits on top of a robotic car. A camera watches the fish, and the car drives in the same direction (方向) that the fish swims. Light-up Toilet (发光马桶) Getting up at night to the washroom can be risky. Turn on the light, and you blind yourself. Wouldn’t it be great if the toilet bowl sensed (感应) your movement and started lighting in bright colors? That’s the idea behind IllumiBowl (马桶彩灯). The Ostrich Pillow (鸵鸟枕) Your eyes are heavy in the study hall, but the hard desk isn’t comfortable. And the room is crowded. Too bad you don’t have a pillow. This invention fits over the whole head—with a breathing hole by the nose and mouth. Meat Soap Lots of people love the smell of fresh meat in a frying pan (煎锅). But do you really want to smear (涂抹) it all over your body? Meat Soap is made from animal fats. You can smell like meat without eating it! But do not try to eat it no matter how delicious it smells. 31．What makes Fish on Wheels special? A．It can help improve our lives. B．It has the ability to move around. C．It is a tank for keeping fish in. D．It makes fish change direction. 32．When will the toilet bowl start lighting? A．When people get up at night. B．When people turn on the light. C．When the camera watches people. D．When people’s movement is sensed. 33．What’s the meaning of “Your eyes are heavy”? A．You are really sleepy. B．You are studying carefully. C．You are too heavy to sit on the chair. D．You are angry with the crowded room. 34．What can Meat Soap bring you? A．The feeling of animals fats. B．The taste of fresh meat. C．The interest in cooking. D．The smell of frying meat. 35．Where is the passage probably from? A．A dictionary. B．A magazine. C．A novel. D．A textbook. 【答案】31．B 32．D 33．A 34．D 35．B 【导语】本文介绍四款脑洞十足、新奇有趣的真实发明：可移动鱼缸、感应发光马桶、鸵鸟睡眠枕、肉味香皂，简单介绍每款产品的设计思路与功能，同时抛出两个问题引发读者思考：哪款发明会被淘汰、哪一款是自己想要拥有的。 【详解】31．根据“Fish on wheels”部分“Common fish tanks (鱼缸) are just sitting there…A fish tank sits on top of a robotic car. A camera watches the fish, and the car drives in the same direction (方向) that the fish swims.”说明普通鱼缸固定不动，这款鱼缸装在机器人小车上面，能跟着鱼游动四处移动，这是它的独特之处。 32．根据“Light-up Toilet”部分“Turn on the light, and you blind yourself. Wouldn’t it be great if the toilet bowl sensed (感应) your movement and started lighting in bright colors?”说明当感应到人的移动时，马桶会发光。 33．根据“The Ostrich Pillow”部分“Your eyes are heavy in the study hall, but the hard desk isn’t comfortable. And the room is crowded. Too bad you don’t have a pillow.”说明学生在自习室，桌子硬，房间拥挤，且提到“真希望有个枕头”。“Your eyes are heavy”结合需要枕头睡觉的上下文，意为“非常困倦”。 34．根据“Meat Soap”部分“Lots of people love the smell of fresh meat in a frying pan…You can smell like meat without eating it!”说明这款香皂由动物油脂制成，身上会带有煎肉的气味，不能吃，没有肉的味道。 35．文章介绍了四种奇特的发明，语言风格轻松有趣，旨在引起读者兴趣并互动，这种体裁通常出现在杂志(Magazine)的生活或科技专栏中，而不是字典、小说或正式教材。 B In the past ten years, great progress has been made in technology. It seems like everything has been reinvented and greatly improved. However, there is one thing that is different. It was invented over 100 years ago but remained (保持) unchanged until now. It is the white cane (盲杖) used by blind people. Many blind people have used this kind of white cane for a long time. However, it has seen no real improvement, until a blind engineer named Kursat decided to make a difference. Kursat is from Turkey(土耳其). He lost his eyesight at the age of 2. He well understands the difficulties and challenges that the blind face. That’s because he himself is a blind person. As a blind person, when he is at the subway station, he doesn’t know which is his exit (出口). When walking on the street, he may run into obstacles. Kursat decided to do something to help the blind. He invented a new kind of cane called the WeWalk. This smart cane is equipped (配备) with built — in speakers and different sensors (传感器). The sensors can “see” obstacles in front of it, like a wall or a car, and then the cane will vibrate (震动) to tell the user. It can also connect to the Internet through Bluetooth. It can give the user information about the place he or she is visiting, such as the name of the store or the direction of the library. Besides, the cane can be folded, so it’s easy to carry. What’s more, the price of the WeWalk is around $500, which is relatively cheap compared with other high-tech products for the blind. This invention will bring great changes to the lives of blind people. These days, we are talking about flying cars. But blind people are still using just a simple cane. With the WeWalk, blind people can live a more convenient life. It’s really a great invention that shows how technology can help improve people’s lives. 36．What does the word obstacles in the Paragraph 2 mean? A．机会 B．宠物 C．障碍物 D．朋友 37．What can the WeWalk do according to the passage? ① It can "see" obstacles and vibrate to tell the user. ② It can connect to the Internet through Bluetooth. ③ It can give the user information about the place. ④ It can help the blind take a plane. A．①②③④ B．①②③ C．②③④ D．①③④ 38．Why did Kursat invent the WeWalk? A．Because he wanted to make money. B．Because he wanted to be famous. C．Because he wanted to help the blind like him. D．Because he liked inventing things. 39．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The WeWalk is very expensive. B．The WeWalk can’t be folded. C．Kursat lost his eyesight when he was born. D．The WeWalk is a great invention for the blind. 40．Which part of the newspaper can we probably read the passage in? A．Health. B．Science. C．Business. D．Travel. 【答案】36．C 37．B 38．C 39．D 40．B 【导语】本文介绍了土耳其盲人工程师Kursat发明的智能盲杖WeWalk，阐述了其传感器、联网等功能如何改善盲人生活，展现了科技的人文关怀价值。 【详解】36．词义理解题。根据“when walking on the street, he may run into obstacles”的语境，结合盲人出行时可能遇到的困难，可知obstacles意为“障碍物”。故选C。 37．细节理解题。根据第三段描述，WeWalk的功能包括：① 通过传感器看到障碍物并震动提醒(“The sensors can ‘see’ obstacles...and then the cane will vibrate”)② 通过蓝牙连接互联网(“It can also connect to the Internet through Bluetooth”)③ 提供位置信息(“give the user information about the place”)文中未提及帮助盲人乘坐飞机功能。故选B。 38．细节理解题。根据“Kursat decided to do something to help the blind”和“He well understands the difficulties...That’s because he himself is a blind person”可知，发明WeWalk是为了帮助像他一样的盲人。故选C。 39．推理判断题。根据“With the WeWalk, blind people can live a more convenient life.”可知对WeWalk对盲人有很大帮助。故选D。 40．推理判断题。本文介绍科技产品WeWalk的发明及其功能，属于科技类内容。故选B。 五、单词拼写 41．C________ to you on winning first prize. 【答案】Congratulations/ongratulations 【详解】句意：祝贺你获得一等奖。根据“...to you on winning first prize.”和首字母提示可知，此处表示对“你”的祝贺，congratulations to sb.“祝贺某人”，固定搭配。故填Congratulations。 42．The people outside began to come back one after a________ after dusk. 【答案】another/nother 【详解】句意：外面的人们在黄昏后开始陆续返回。根据“after…”及首字母提示可知此处应用another，one after another“一个接一个地、相继地”。故填another。 43．I want to d________ some interesting apps on my phone.

Some inventions seem simple, but they have a huge impact (影响). Take the wheel for example. It is a very 16 invention. Before the wheel, people had a hard time 17 heavy things. They had to carry them on their backs or pull them with ropes. But the wheel made transportation (运输) much 18 . It was easier to move goods from one place to another. This led to more trade and 19 between different groups of people. Another important invention is the telephone. Alexander Graham Bell 20 it. Before the telephone, people could only communicate with each other 21 writing letters or talking face-to-face. But the telephone made it possible to talk to someone far away in 22 real time. This changed the way people did business and kept in touch with their friends and family. Inventions don’t always come from big companies or famous scientists. Sometimes, they come from ordinary people with 23 ideas. These people see a problem and think of a way to 24 it. And when they do, they can change the world. So, if you have an idea, don’t be afraid to try it. You might just be the next great 25 . 16．A．modern B．simple C．expensive D．strange 17．A．making B．moving C．finding D．selling 18．A．faster B．slower C．harder D．bigger 19．A．war B．adventure C．communication D．competition 20．A．discovered B．found C．invented D．saw 21．A．on B．with C．in D．by 22．A．almost B．always C．never D．ever 23．A．common B．boring C．new D．old 24．A．answer B．solve C．cause D．face 25．A．scientist B．writer C．artist D．inventor 三、补全对话 根据对话内容，从下面选出恰当的句子补全对话。 A: Hi, Sam!

B．Can I use it for my homework? C．Because if we do so, we won’t need to use our brains. D．What can it do? E．I’m reading an article about ChatGPT. 四、阅读理解 A Inventions improve our lives. But not all of them. Every once in a while, a silly idea appears. Of the four real inventions below, which do you think will disappear? And which would you maybe want for your very own? Fish on wheels Common fish tanks (鱼缸) are just sitting there. That’s a huge problem for a pet fish that wants to see the world (or at least the next room). This invention gives fish wheels. A fish tank sits on top of a robotic car. A camera watches the fish, and the car drives in the same direction (方向) that the fish swims. Light-up Toilet (发光马桶) Getting up at night to the washroom can be risky. Turn on the light, and you blind yourself. Wouldn’t it be great if the toilet bowl sensed (感应) your movement and started lighting in bright colors? That’s the idea behind IllumiBowl (马桶彩灯). The Ostrich Pillow (鸵鸟枕) Your eyes are heavy in the study hall, but the hard desk isn’t comfortable. And the room is crowded. Too bad you don’t have a pillow. This invention fits over the whole head—with a breathing hole by the nose and mouth. Meat Soap Lots of people love the smell of fresh meat in a frying pan (煎锅). But do you really want to smear (涂抹) it all over your body? Meat Soap is made from animal fats. You can smell like meat without eating it! But do not try to eat it no matter how delicious it smells. 31．What makes Fish on Wheels special? A．It can help improve our lives. B．It has the ability to move around. C．It is a tank for keeping fish in. D．It makes fish change direction. 32．When will the toilet bowl start lighting? A．When people get up at night. B．When people turn on the light. C．When the camera watches people. D．When people’s movement is sensed. 33．What’s the meaning of “Your eyes are heavy”? A．You are really sleepy. B．You are studying carefully. C．You are too heavy to sit on the chair. D．You are angry with the crowded room. 34．What can Meat Soap bring you? A．The feeling of animals fats. B．The taste of fresh meat. C．The interest in cooking. D．The smell of frying meat. 35．Where is the passage probably from? A．A dictionary. B．A magazine. C．A novel. D．A textbook. B In the past ten years, great progress has been made in technology. It seems like everything has been reinvented and greatly improved. However, there is one thing that is different. It was invented over 100 years ago but remained (保持) unchanged until now. It is the white cane (盲杖) used by blind people. Many blind people have used this kind of white cane for a long time. However, it has seen no real improvement, until a blind engineer named Kursat decided to make a difference. Kursat is from Turkey(土耳其). He lost his eyesight at the age of 2. He well understands the difficulties and challenges that the blind face. That’s because he himself is a blind person. As a blind person, when he is at the subway station, he doesn’t know which is his exit (出口). When walking on the street, he may run into obstacles. Kursat decided to do something to help the blind. He invented a new kind of cane called the WeWalk. This smart cane is equipped (配备) with built — in speakers and different sensors (传感器). The sensors can “see” obstacles in front of it, like a wall or a car, and then the cane will vibrate (震动) to tell the user. It can also connect to the Internet through Bluetooth. It can give the user information about the place he or she is visiting, such as the name of the store or the direction of the library. Besides, the cane can be folded, so it’s easy to carry. What’s more, the price of the WeWalk is around $500, which is relatively cheap compared with other high-tech products for the blind. This invention will bring great changes to the lives of blind people. These days, we are talking about flying cars. But blind people are still using just a simple cane. With the WeWalk, blind people can live a more convenient life. It’s really a great invention that shows how technology can help improve people’s lives. 36．What does the word obstacles in the Paragraph 2 mean? A．机会 B．宠物 C．障碍物 D．朋友 37．What can the WeWalk do according to the passage? ① It can "see" obstacles and vibrate to tell the user. ② It can connect to the Internet through Bluetooth. ③ It can give the user information about the place. ④ It can help the blind take a plane. A．①②③④ B．①②③ C．②③④ D．①③④ 38．Why did Kursat invent the WeWalk? A．Because he wanted to make money. B．Because he wanted to be famous. C．Because he wanted to help the blind like him. D．Because he liked inventing things. 39．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The WeWalk is very expensive. B．The WeWalk can’t be folded. C．Kursat lost his eyesight when he was born. D．The WeWalk is a great invention for the blind. 40．Which part of the newspaper can we probably read the passage in? A．Health. B．Science. C．Business. D．Travel. 五、单词拼写 41．C________ to you on winning first prize. 42．The people outside began to come back one after a________ after dusk. 43．I want to d________ some interesting apps on my phone.

She worked carefully and 63 (slow) to make sure everything was perfect. Her brother watched her and asked, “ 64 did you learn to build this?” Emma smiled and said, “I learned it from Dad.” After a few hours, the shelf was ready. It was painted in bright colours by Emma. Her brother was so happy that he 65 (hug) her and said, “You’re the 66 (good) sister in the world!” Emma felt proud and realized she loved creating things. Then Emma joined the school’s invention club and started working on more projects. Her teacher said, “Emma, you might become 67 great inventor one day!” Emma felt 68 (excite) and couldn’t wait to share her ideas. That night, Emma lay in bed and thought about 69 (she) future. She dreamed of creating inventions that could help people and make the world better. She knew it would take hard work, 70 she was ready to keep trying. After all, inventing is all about creativity and solving problems. 八、书面表达 71．写一段话（至少5句）介绍一件你认为最重要的发明，并说明它如何改变了人们的生活。比较过去和现在的不同，以及你对未来生活的期待。请使用以下表达中的至少三个： in the past, thanks to, change our lives, communicate with, travel around, at any time __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第8页，共8页 试卷第7页，共8页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
