This gave him an idea: what if a toy could actually interact with kids? Two years later, after countless failed attempts, Caleb and his partner finally 26______ the Furby. It became one of the most popular toys in history. The journey, however, was not easy. They had to 27______ how to make the toy “blink” and “talk” without making it too expensive. At first, many toy companies rejected their idea because they thought it was too 28______ for children to understand. But Caleb insisted.

In recent years, China has made great progress in self-driving technology. Since August 2022, self-driving taxis can run on the roads in Wuhan, Chongqing and Shenzhen. Why do we develop self-driving cars? Self-driving cars can bring us many advantages. First, they use computers to sense the things around them and make better use of space. This means fewer traffic jams and better parking for cars. Second, self-driving cars can help the disabled or blind people get around more easily. Third, self-driving cars hardly make wrong decisions or lose focus, so there will be fewer accidents and deaths on the road. However, self-driving cars are not perfect. They also have some problems. If something unexpected happens on the road, self-driving cars cannot react as fast as human drivers. Also, when the weather is bad, like heavy snow, self-driving cars cannot see the lines on the road easily. This may cause an accident. Besides, if the computer system of the car is broken by someone, the car will crash. It is clear that there is still a long way to go to make self-driving cars more common and safer. China is taking steps to make this happen. ( ) 36. What does the underlined word "they" refer to? A. Self-driving cars. B. Human drivers. C. Blind people. D. Disabled people. ( ) 37. What is the advantage of self-driving cars according to Paragraph 2? A. They can react faster than humans in danger. B. They help save parking space. C. They work well in heavy snow. D. They never break down. ( ) 38. How many problems of self-driving cars are mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. ( ) 39. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Self-driving cars will disappear soon. B. Self-driving cars are completely safe now. C. China is working hard to improve self-driving technology. D. Only China is developing self-driving cars. ( ) 40. Where is the passage most probably taken from? A. A storybook. B. A science magazine. C. A travel guide. D. A cookbook. B When Ruth Wakefield was mixing butter and chocolate to make cookies for her guests at the Toll House Inn in 1938, she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She broke a bar of Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate into pieces and stirred them into the dough, expecting the chocolate to melt. Instead, the chocolate kept its shape, softening but not melting completely. The "Toll House Chocolate Crunch Cookie" was born accidentally. This happy accident changed the snack industry. News of the cookie spread quickly. Soon, everyone wanted the recipe. Nestlé saw the opportunity and started producing chocolate chips specifically for these cookies. They even printed Ruth’s recipe on the back of their packages. Today, the chocolate chip cookie is considered the most popular cookie in America. Ruth’s story shows that innovation doesn't always come from a lab. Sometimes, it comes from a kitchen when someone dares to try something different. She didn't throw away the batter when the chocolate didn't melt; instead, she baked it anyway. Her curiosity and willingness to experiment turned a mistake into a global favorite. ( ) 41. Why did Ruth add pieces of chocolate into the dough? A. Because she wanted to invent a new kind of cookie. B. Because she ran out of baker’s chocolate. C. Because her guests liked solid chocolate. D. Because the chocolate was too sweet. ( ) 42. What happened to the chocolate in the oven? A. It melted completely. B. It turned into liquid. C. It kept its shape but softened. D. It disappeared into the dough. ( ) 43. What did Nestlé do after the cookie became popular? A. They bought Ruth’s inn. B. They stopped making chocolate bars. C. They produced special chocolate chips. D. They hid the recipe from the public. ( ) 44. Which word best describes Ruth Wakefield? A. Careful. B. Creative. C. Lazy. D. Strict. ( ) 45. What is the main idea of the passage? A. How to bake perfect cookies. B. The history of Nestlé Company. C. A happy accident led to a famous invention. D. The life of a famous chef. C Chinese shadow puppetry (皮影戏), a centuries-old art form, is facing challenges in the modern era. However, a group of young designers are using 3D printing technology to bring this intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) back to life. Traditionally, puppets were carved from leather, a process requiring years of training and extreme patience. A single puppet could take weeks to finish. Now, with 3D printing, designers can create precise puppet parts in just a few hours. They scan old puppets, digitize the designs, and print them using eco-friendly plastics. This not only saves time but also allows for more complex and flexible joint structures, making the puppets easier to manipulate during performances. Moreover, these innovators are combining shadow puppetry with modern stories. Instead of only telling ancient myths, they are creating short plays about environmental protection and science fiction. By using LED lights and digital screens as backgrounds, they attract younger audiences who might otherwise find traditional performances too slow or boring. "The goal is not to replace the old with the new," says Li Hua, a leading designer in the project. "We want to use technology to protect tradition and make it relevant to today's world." This blend of old and new ensures that the shadows on the screen continue to dance for generations to come. ( ) 46. What is the main problem facing Chinese shadow puppetry? A. Lack of leather. B. Too many young designers. C. Difficulty in attracting modern audiences. D. High cost of plastic materials. ( ) 47. How does 3D printing help in making puppets? A. It makes the puppets heavier. B. It requires less training time for carvers. C. It takes longer but produces better quality. D. It allows for faster production and better flexibility. ( ) 48. What kind of new stories are being introduced to shadow puppetry? A. Only ancient myths. B. Stories about modern life and science. C. Foreign fairy tales. D. Historical records of the Ming Dynasty. ( ) 49. What does the underlined word "manipulate" in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Break. B. Control. C. Sell. D. Collect. ( ) 50. What is Li Hua’s attitude towards using technology in traditional art? A. Negative. He thinks it will destroy tradition. B. Neutral. He doesn't care about the changes. C. Positive. He believes it helps preserve tradition. D. Confused. He is unsure if it will work. D 阅读还原（六选五） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever wondered why your zippers sometimes get stuck? Or why they sometimes slide open by themselves? Whitcomb Judson, an American engineer, asked these same questions in the late 1800s. 51. _______ At that time, people struggled with complicated hooks and eyes on their shoes and clothing. Judson wanted to create a device that could fasten clothes quickly and easily. In 1893, he introduced his "Clasp Locker"—the early version of the zipper—at the Chicago World's Fair. 52. _______ People found it clunky (笨重的) and unreliable. It took another 20 years and improvements by Gideon Sundback before the modern zipper was born. Sundback increased the number of fastening elements and improved the slider mechanism. By 1913, the design was finally practical. However, it still wasn't popular. 53. _______ They used the zippers in their rubber boots and named it the "zipper" because of the sound it made when pulled. This marketing push helped the zipper gain popularity. During World War I, zippers were used to close the pockets of soldiers' uniforms to keep items secure. 54. _______ In the 1930s, fashion designers started using zippers in men's trousers and children's clothing. This changed the public's perception. Zippers were no longer just for boots; they were a fashion statement. Today, zippers are everywhere—on jackets, bags, tents, and even spacesuits. 55. _______ From solving a small annoyance with shoelaces to becoming a global standard, the zipper proves that even the smallest ideas can have a huge impact. A. The invention was a failure at first. B. Judson’s invention was perfect from the start. C. This experience taught him the importance of patience. D. Later, the B.F. Goodrich Company saw the potential. E. After the war, zippers began to enter the world of fashion. F. It reminds us that great inventions often require time and teamwork to succeed. G. He realized there had to be a better way to fasten clothes than buttons or laces. 第四部分 短文填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 With the rapid development of technology, robots are no longer just characters in movies.

The purpose of this activity was to encourage students to think creatively and turn their ideas into reality. There were many amazing inventions on display. My favorite was a "foldable schoolbag". It can be folded into the size of a wallet, which is very convenient for travel. Another cool invention was an "automatic plant waterer". It can detect the moisture in the soil and water the plants automatically when they are thirsty. I was deeply impressed by my schoolmates' creativity. It made me realize that innovation is not just for scientists in labs. Everyone can be an inventor if they observe life carefully. I hope our school holds this fair every year to inspire more students. I believe these small ideas today may become great inventions tomorrow. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
