It seems like everything has been reinvented (改造) and greatly improved. 1 It was invented over 100 years ago but remained unchanged until now. I’m talking about a blind walking stick. 2 However, it has seen no real improvement, until a blind engineer named Kursat decided to make a difference. He hoped his invention would help the blind. He invented a smart stick called the WeWalk. The smart stick uses built-in speakers and different sensors (传感器) to warn about possible dangers. It helps blind people in navigating (导航) around their environment using modern technology, which makes their travel much easier. The stick is priced at around $500. It is less than half the price of most smart phones. Most people can afford it. 3 Kursat well understands the difficulties and challenges that the blind face. 4 He decided to put his technical knowledge into inventing something that would not only change his life, but also the life of many others. “In these days, we are talking about flying cars. 5 As a blind person, when I am at the metro station, I don’t know which is my exit. I don’t know which bus is coming or which stores are around me. Now, that kind of information can be provided by the WeWalk,” he said. “I believe life of the blind will be much easier and safer.” A．That’s because he is blind himself. B．But there is one thing unlike them. C．More attention should be paid to the disabled. D．But the blind have been using just a simple stick. E．This invention is going to change life a lot for the blind.

Among the Four Great Inventions of ancient China, papermaking plays one of the most important roles and has greatly influenced the whole world’s cultural development. Before paper was invented in ancient times, Chinese people had to write words on heavy bamboo slips, wooden boards or hard stone walls. Bamboo slips were too heavy for people to carry around easily, and it needed a lot of bamboo materials. Stone writing was even harder to make and impossible to move. At that time, keeping written records was very difficult and inconvenient for common people. Knowledge and culture could not spread quickly to other places. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, a great man named Cai Lun made a huge improvement to papermaking technology. He used cheap and common materials such as tree bark, old broken cloth, fishing nets and plant fibers to make new paper. The paper he invented was light in weight, low in cost, easy to write on and simple to produce in large numbers. Soon this kind of paper became popular across the whole country and replaced bamboo slips little by little. After papermaking spread to other countries and areas around the world, it helped human knowledge, stories and culture spread much faster and farther than before. It made reading and writing easier for common people and pushed the development of education and culture all over the world. Even in modern society, we still use paper in our study, work and daily life every day. Papermaking is not only a great ancient invention, but also a precious cultural treasure that we should always remember and respect. 1．Papermaking is ________ the Four Great Inventions of ancient China. A．all of B．one of C．none of 2．What did ancient people write on before paper was invented? A．Bamboo slips and stones. B．Modern notebooks. C．Cheap white paper. 3．Who improved the papermaking technology in the Eastern Han Dynasty? A．Confucius. B．Li Bai. C．Cai Lun. 4．Which of the following is NOT true about Cai Lun’s paper? A．It was light. B．It was very expensive. C．It was easy to produce. 5．What influence did papermaking bring to the world? A．It made traveling much easier for people. B．It helped knowledge and culture spread faster around the world. C．It changed the weather in many countries. 八、完形填空。 Some old Chinese inventions have won 1 popularity around the world. Recently, a British woman used an ancient Chinese invention to help her son 2 a math problem. Dr. Mantri grew up in India. She was taught 3 to use an abacus (算盘) to solve math problems when she was young. After noticing that her 4 , Dhruv, had great difficulty with math, she 5 using the same ancient Chinese tool to help him after school. “My son was in Grade 5 when I noticed he was 6 in math,” said Dr. Mantri, “I would ask him 7 very easy like ‘35-13=?’, but he couldn’t work it out.” “I never thought I would teach him to use such an old tool 8 I realized I could try the Chinese abacus. It is a useful 9 to help kids better understand numbers and basic calculations (计算). Very soon I saw the results. After six days, Dhruv started to make progress 10 with the help of the abacus. He even performed with the abacus at a school meeting where some parents came to 11 advice on using it to help their kids.” Known as the fifth invention of ancient China, Chinese abacus is also 12 as the earliest computer. It helped people solve many math problems in ancient China. As long as you 13 the rules, you can easily use it. Sometimes, just move one bead (算珠), then 14 bead, and you will get the answer. What a(an) 15 tool! So far, the Chinese abacus has been listed as an intangible cultural heritage of human beings (人类非物质文化遗产) for 10 years ever since 2013. 1．A．smooth B．quick C．wide D．slow 2．A．agree with B．part with C．deal with D．compete with 3．A．what B．how C．where D．when 4．A．worker B．student C．son D．teacher 5．A．enjoyed B．finished C．started D．practiced 6．A．creative B．weak C．talented D．successful 7．A．something B．anything C．everything D．nothing 8．A．after B．when C．until D．since 9．A．sign B．report C．method D．symbol 10．A．politely B．quickly C．bravely D．loudly 11．A．care for B．leave for C．ask for D．pay for 12．A．considered B．caught C．covered D．cost 13．A．repeat B．reuse C．remind D．remember 14．A．other B．another C．the other D．others 15．A．magic B．terrible C．awful D．simple Part 1: Read and Explore History is full of young inventors. For example, Lu Ban came up with the idea of the ruler in his childhood. Benjamin Franklin invented swim flippers (脚蹼) at the age of 12. Last year, 6-year-old Kate Smith created her invention for baby medical treatment. The stories of the young inventors remind people of children’s great creativity. Scientists agree that children are more creative than adults, and they have the power to create new things. Every invention starts with a wish to explore (探索). Children have a spirit of discovery, which drives them to ask questions, explore problems, and try to solve them. Lily Peterson, at the age of 9, created the ice cream stick just because she wanted to hold her cold ice cream without mess. But the simple invention has changed the way we eat ice cream, making it easier and more enjoyable for people of all ages. What’s more, children can learn things quickly and like turning new knowledge into practice. They are not afraid to try out their ideas, and at the same time, they enjoy the sense of pride. It makes them take an active part in scientific experiment (实验) and create unexpected ideas. Children’s ability to create is really valuable. Adults should encourage them and provide them with chances to explore the world. By doing so, children can help to make the world around them better. Part 2: Skills Challenge Task 1: Critical Thinking 1. What do the stories of young inventors remind us of? ____________________________________________________________________________________ 2. Why are children more likely to create new inventions? List one reason. ____________________________________________________________________________________ 3.

She was taught...to use an abacus (算盘) to solve math problems when she was young.”可知，此处要表达“如何使用算盘”的含义，how符合文意；what什么、where哪里、when什么时候均不符合。 4．句意：在注意到她的儿子德鲁夫数学不好之后，她放学后开始使用同样的中国古代工具帮助他。 根据前文“Recently, a British woman used an ancient Chinese invention to help her son...a math problem.”可知，这个孩子是这位女士的儿子，son符合文意；worker工人、student学生、teacher老师均不符合。 5．句意：在注意到她的儿子德鲁夫数学不好之后，她放学后开始使用同样的中国古代工具帮助他。 根据上下文逻辑，曼特里发现儿子数学有困难后，才开始用自己小时候学的算盘帮助儿子学习，started意为“开始”，符合文意；enjoyed享受，finished完成，practiced练习均不符合。 6．句意：当我发现我的儿子数学不好的时候，他在上五年级。 根据“Dhruv had great difficulty with math”和“but he couldn’t work it out.”可知，德鲁夫不擅长数学，weak意为“薄弱的”，be weak in表示“不擅长……”，符合文意；creative有创造力的，talented有天赋的，successful成功的均不符合。 7．句意：我会问他像“35减13等于多少”这样非常简单的题目，但他算不出来。 根据句意，此处表示“一些很简单的内容”，本句是肯定句，something符合文意；anything多用于否定句或疑问句，everything一切，nothing没有什么，均不符合。 8．句意：我从来没想过我会教他使用这么古老的工具，直到我意识到我可以试试中国算盘。 根据语境，此处表达“直到……才……”的逻辑，never…until…是固定搭配，until符合文意；after在……之后，when当……时，since自从均不符合。 9．句意：它是帮助孩子更好地理解数字和基础计算的有用方法。 根据上下文，算盘是一种帮助孩子学习数学的方法，method意为“方法”，符合文意；sign标志，report报道，symbol象征均不符合。 10．句意：六天之后，德鲁夫在算盘的帮助下开始快速取得进步。 根据前文“Very soon I saw the results.”可知，很快就看到了成果，说明德鲁夫进步得很快，quickly意为“快速地”，符合文意；politely礼貌地，bravely勇敢地，loudly大声地均不符合。 11．句意：他甚至在一次校会上表演使用算盘，一些家长来到会上寻求用它帮助自己孩子的建议。 根据语境，家长来咨询如何用算盘帮孩子学习，ask for意为“寻求”，ask for advice是固定搭配，表示“寻求建议”，符合文意；care for关心，leave for出发去，pay for付费均不符合。 12．句意：中国算盘也被认为是最早的计算机。 根据语境，此处表达“被看作、被认为”的含义，be considered as是固定搭配，意为“被认为是”，符合文意；caught抓住，covered覆盖，cost花费均不符合。 13．句意：只要你记住规则，你就能轻松使用它。 根据语境，使用算盘需要记住使用规则，remember意为“记住”，符合文意；repeat重复，reuse重新使用，remind提醒均不符合。 14．句意：有时候，只需要移动一颗算珠，再移动另一颗算珠，你就能得到答案。 根据语境，此处表示多个算珠中的任意另一颗，another指代三者及以上中的另一个，后接单数名词，符合文意；other后接复数名词，the other指代两者中的另一个，others是代词，不修饰名词，均不符合。 15．句意：多么神奇的工具啊！ 根据上文提到算盘只需要移动几颗算珠就能得到答案，还成功帮助数学薄弱的孩子快速进步，此处表达对算盘的赞叹，magic意为“神奇的”，符合文意；terrible糟糕的，awful糟糕的，simple简单的都不能体现这种赞叹。 Part 1: Read and Explore History is full of young inventors. For example, Lu Ban came up with the idea of the ruler in his childhood. Benjamin Franklin invented swim flippers (脚蹼) at the age of 12. Last year, 6-year-old Kate Smith created her invention for baby medical treatment. The stories of the young inventors remind people of children’s great creativity. Scientists agree that children are more creative than adults, and they have the power to create new things. Every invention starts with a wish to explore (探索). Children have a spirit of discovery, which drives them to ask questions, explore problems, and try to solve them. Lily Peterson, at the age of 9, created the ice cream stick just because she wanted to hold her cold ice cream without mess. But the simple invention has changed the way we eat ice cream, making it easier and more enjoyable for people of all ages. What’s more, children can learn things quickly and like turning new knowledge into practice. They are not afraid to try out their ideas, and at the same time, they enjoy the sense of pride. It makes them take an active part in scientific experiment (实验) and create unexpected ideas. Children’s ability to create is really valuable. Adults should encourage them and provide them with chances to explore the world. By doing so, children can help to make the world around them better. Part 2: Skills Challenge Task 1: Critical Thinking 1. What do the stories of young inventors remind us of? ____________________________________________________________________________________ 2. Why are children more likely to create new inventions? List one reason. ____________________________________________________________________________________ 3.
