They learned a lot about Chinese culture and visited many places. Visiting the Terracotta Army (兵马俑) is the first thing to do in Shaanxi. Our teacher told us we must go there early because the light would be better and it might be less crowded (拥挤) . So we got there before 8:30 am. The Great Tang All Day Mall is the most popular place in Shaanxi these years. We enjoyed some delicious Shaanxi food and tried on traditional Chinese clothes. We also learned the history of ancient China. Climbing Mount Hua is one of the most important things to do in Shaanxi. There are five main peaks and many other peaks. Some of us chose to climb up the North Peak and walk down along the West Peak. 1. When did Andy’s class get to the Terracotta Army? A. Before 8:30 pm. B. Before 8:30 am. C. After 8:30 am. 2. What did they do at the Great Tang All Day Mall? A. They tried on Chinese clothes. B. They visited museums. C. They took lots of pictures. 3. Where can you find the text? A. In a travel guidebook. B. In a music book. C. In a science book. B In Chongqing, China, a new robot named Peipei is helping take care of the elderly (老年人). Peipei works at a centre for old people. She is kind, careful, and a good listener. People there say she’s a friendly helper. Peipei is very smart. She can tell if someone is sad or not sleeping well. She says kind things to make them happy. Grandma Wang, an old woman at the centre, likes talking to Peipei. “If you have any questions, just ask Peipei. She can answer anything,” said Grandma Wang. They often play games and take photos together. Peipei can even make the photos look nice! When Grandma Wang misses her granddaughter, Peipei tells her that she will give her a call soon. Peipei’s name sounds like the word “陪”. It means “to keep you company (陪伴)”. With the help of AI technology (人工智能技术), Peipei can understand feelings and give the elderly better care. Taking care of the elderly is not easy. Nurses can’t always be with everyone. But Peipei can be there all day and night to help. She can help old people learn about robots and new technology, too. Many of them are now curious (好奇的) about how robots work and want to learn more. There are many old people in Chongqing. That’s why the city is using robots like Peipei to help. In the future, robots like Peipei may be in more places to care for the elderly. For example, when an elderly person feels lonely and misses their family, Peipei will show them family photos saved in its photo-keeper function, and even play the voice messages from their children. 4. What can Peipei do to make the elderly happy? A. Buy them nice gifts. B. Say kind things to them. C. Take them to the park. 5. How does the writer show that Peipei is smart? A. By describing a picture. B. By giving an example. C. By asking questions. 6. What can Peipei do better than nurses? A. She can take better photos. B. She can understand hard feelings. C. She can work long hours every day. 7. What does the underlined word “photo-keeper” mean in the passage? A. A thing to take photos B. A function to save photos C. A tool to print photos C Have your family moved before? How did you feel about your life in a new place? Nowadays, scientists helped some Burrowing Owls (穴居猫头鹰) move into their new homes. Burrowing owls are small brown long-legged birds. They make homes in underground burrows (洞穴) and like to live in groups. In California, there is another kind of Burrowing Owls called the Western Burrowing Owl. In the past, these owls lived in the grasslands. Later, people began building cities on many of the grasslands. This made the owls leave their homes. Some of these birds were unable to find new homes. As a result, the number of Western Burrowing Owls in California was smaller than that in 1965. If the number keeps falling, they will be in great danger. Luckily, scientists found out the problem some years ago. They soon began trying to move these owls to some protected (受保护的) grasslands. In order to make the birds feel more “at home”, scientists played the sound of owl calls in these areas. They also used white paint to make fake droppings (假粪便) of the owls. These made the birds believe that other owls were living there. As a result, they enjoyed their new home and stayed there. Scientists would check on the owls. Most of them seemed to like their new homes. Good luck to them enjoying their new lives there. 8. What can we know about Burrowing Owls according to Paragraph 2? A. They like living in groups. B. They have small black legs. C. They make homes in the trees. 9. Why did the number of Western Burrowing Owls in California become less? A. They didn’t like living in groups. B. People built cities on their grassland homes, making them lose their homes. C. They couldn’t enjoy the sound of owl calls played by scientists. 10. What does the underlined word “These” refer to (指代)？ A. Playing the sound and painting owls white. B. Painting owls white and making fake droppings. C. Playing the sound and making fake droppings. 11. According to the last paragraph, what can we predict about the Burrowing Owls in the future? A. They will all come back to their home before. B. Their number will become larger. C. Scientists will stop checking on them because they are no longer in danger. 第二节（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） Nobody likes to do housework, especially kids.
