But do you know the history of numbers? In ancient times, people’s life was simple. The world was 1 of unknowns for them.

The right graph can help! It makes data clear. Let’s look at the four most common graph types: Pie ChartIt’s good for showing a certain part of a whole and the proportion (比例) of each part. A pie chart enables you to plan your pocket money wisely:for snacks, books, and savings. Line GraphAn excellent choice if you want to describe how something changes over time. It is also good for showing big differences. Many teachers prefer using a line graph to track students’ grades. Bar GraphA bar graph can also show changes over time. However, it’s more direct to make comparisons (对比) between two or more things. That’s why we can use it to compare the popularity of different school clubs among your classmates. Venn Diagram (维恩图) A Venn Diagram features two overlapping circles. It’s perfect for sorting (分类) information. You can use a Venn Diagram to sort plants. For example, plants with green leaves go on the left; plants with flowers go on the right; plants with both go in the middle where the circles overlap. 11．Where can we probably find the passage?

There are also huge numbers in nature, like the number of stars in the sky. Numbers help us understand the world better. They tell us how tall a building is, how long a river is, and how heavy an animal is. Learning numbers can be very interesting. We can find amazing facts by studying different numbers.

Did you know that Asia has around 4.8 billion people? That’s more than half of all people on Earth! Leaders use these numbers to decide how many schools to build. In bad times, numbers help decide how much food or medicine is needed. Stores even use numbers to know which products sell well.Everyday Uses ④We see numbers every day. When baking a cake, you need twice as much flour as sugar. At stores, a 20% discount means you can pay less money to buy the clothes. On the road, signs like “60 km/h tell drivers” the maximum speed. Dates also use numbers, like “June 26th”. ⑤There are also some fun facts about numbers. People think differently about some numbers. In China, people believe that the number 8 means good fortune. Meanwhile, in some Western countries, people think 13 is unlucky. ⑥Numbers help us describe everything—from small things to huge stars.

But that’s just one example about numbers in China. When I first came here, I was surprised to see that many websites had numbers in their names instead of letters. I soon found that this is actually convenient, as Chinese characters (汉字) cannot be used for website addresses. 28 In pinyin, the telecom company China Unicom is called Zhongguo Liantong. If the company used their pinyin name for their website address, it would be quite long. 29 In addition, the pronunciations of some numbers sound similar to other words in Chinese. This is wordplay (双关语). For example, the numbers “520” in Chinese sound similar to the pronunciation of the Chinese phrase “I love you”. 30 A．They can only use numbers or letters instead. B．There are also superstitions (迷信) about some numbers in China. C．In western countries, some people think the number 13 brings bad luck. D．It is interesting to see how Chinese people use numbers in different ways. E．So instead, they used the hotline number—10010.com. This is easier to type and remember. F．Many couples choose to get married on May 20th for this reason. 第三节 信息匹配 (共 5小题，每小题1分，满分5分) 材料A—F是六个促销广告。请根据下面小题中五个人的需求，帮助他们选择合适的广告信息。 31 The Spring Festival is coming.

She wants to shop for some clothes. 34 Mr and Mrs Black just have a baby. They need to buy some food or clothes for their newborn baby. 35 Tim likes eating all kinds of fruit.

The 36 (one) people used tally sticks to count things. Later, they created different symbols for numbers. Now we use numbers to do many things. For example, we use them to make a budget. If you save 37 (two) hundred yuan every month, you will have 2,400 yuan a year. We also use numbers to show dates. Our National Day is on October the 38 (one). What’s more, numbers can show quantities. 39 (thousand) of people use numbers to plan their journeys every day. Numbers are also important in games. A king once challenged a wise man to a game. He promised to give the man rice on the chessboard: one grain on the 40 (one) square, two on the 41 (two), four on the 42 (three), and so on. He thought it was easy, but he soon realized he couldn’t keep his promise—even all the rice in the country was not enough. We can’t live without numbers. Let’s learn to use them well! 四、书面表达 数字无处不在，蕴藏着许多奥秘。请你以 The Magic of Numbers 为题写一篇英语短文，谈谈数字的用处、数字的魅力以及你的学习感悟。 内容提示： 1. 数字的普遍性：生活处处有数字； 2. 数字的作用：帮助计算、助力学习、推动科技； 3. 你的感悟：发现数字乐趣，认真学习数学； 要求：词数80左右，语句通顺，语法正确，可适当发挥，开头已给出，不计入总词数。 The Magic of Numbers Numbers are everywhere in our daily life. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 参考答案 一、 1．A 2．A 3．B 4．B 5．C 6．D 7．C 8．B 9．A 10．B 【导语】本文讲述数字的历史与重要性。从古代无数字的不便到现代系统的完善，强调正确使用数字规则对生活和学习的影响，呼吁从小行动做起。 【详解】1．句意：世界对他们来说充满了未知。 古代人知识少，世界充满未知的事物。用be full of“充满”符合语境。 2．句意：他们没有数字去数数，所以他们经常在记录货物时犯错误。 前文提到“They had no numbers to count things,”他们没有数字数数，因此记录货物时会出错，固定搭配make mistakes“犯错误”。 3．句意：他们仔细地创造了简单的符号。 前文提到“They had no numbers to count things, so they often...mistakes in recording goods.”他们经常犯错，可知现在需“仔细”避免错误。用carefully符合语境。 4．句意：数食物和钱不再令人困惑。 前文提到“Life became easier and clearer”生活变得更容易，更清楚，因此数数不再令人困惑，用confusing与前后文语境相符。 5．句意：他们知道他们取得了巨大的进步。 前文提到“Soon, these symbols became early numbers.
