The following are profiles (简介) of some of them. Let’s read them. Who is considered as “the first carpenter” in China? Of course, Lu Ban. It’s said that he made the world’s first kite as well as many influential (有影响力的) tools, such as saws (锯) for cutting wood and a toy which could take you a whole day or more to work out—Burr Puzzle (鲁班锁). Do you read books or write? If you do, you should thank Cai Lun, who made people use cheaper and better paper to read and write things down in a much easier way till today. Well, how and why did he make paper? You can find answers in this book. Do you know it’s Mozi who made a thing called jiche that can be used to throw stones from a faraway place to kill enemies. The weapon (武器) was widely used in wars. He also made a Wood Kite for spying (侦察). He was not only a great thinker as we thought before. Have you heard of Xi Zhong who designed and made the first car out of wood, which changed the way people travelled in that period? Do you know the meaning of the vehicle coming out? And how did it influence the world? You can find it out in this book. 1. Who was the first wooden car made by? A. Mozi. B. Lu Ban. C. Cai Lun. D. Xi Zhong. 2. If Mozi came to our world today, which job would be suitable for him? A. A car engineer. B. A weapon expert. C. A building designer. D. A manager of a paper factory. 3. Whose contribution is considered as one of the Four Great Inventions? A. Mozi’s. B. Lu Ban’s. C. Cai Lun’s. D. Xi Zhong’s. 4. Which of the following may be the name of the book? A. Solve mysteries of the world B. Learn to be an inventor C. Great people in Chinese history D. Contributions to the world B In a small village, there lived a famous old carpenter (木匠). People travelled from far to buy his furniture. One day, a young man came to learn from him. The young man loved working with wood but was always hurrying to finish things. After a few days of learning from the carpenter, the young man thought, “I can make furniture faster.” The old carpenter noticed this and said, “I can teach you to make furniture quickly, but first, you need to do an easy job.” He then handed the young man a rough board and said, “Make this board smooth.” The man thought it was easy. He sanded (用砂纸打磨) the board a few times and gave it back soon. The old carpenter felt the board and said, “It is not smooth enough. Try again.” A little impatient, the young man sanded harder. But the old carpenter shook his head once again. Feeling sad, the man started to think more. He wasn’t in a hurry anymore and sanded every part of the board carefully. Finally, the board was as smooth as a mirror. This time, the old carpenter smiled and said, “You have learned an important lesson. Success needs not only skills but also patience. The easier the job, the more patience we need. When you perfect every part, you can make a perfect piece.” Life is like this: a successful person moves forward step by step. 5. Why did the young man visit the old carpenter? A. To buy furniture. B. To learn from him. C. To work faster. D. To help him. 6. What does the underlined word “rough” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Long. B. Short. C. Not smooth. D. Not rude. 7. How did the young man finish his job at last? A. He did it as quickly as he could. B. He put a mirror on the wood. C. He succeeded on his first try. D. He finally sanded every part carefully. 8. What’s the main idea of the story? A. Success needs skills and patience. B. One can always do things quickly. C. Experience is important for learning. D. A person can only do things by himself. C What’s your favourite school subject? Do you love maths? Does English interest you? Or are you more of a scientist? We all have favourite subjects, but what if you studied two or more together instead of learning about each subject separately (分别地)? That’s exactly how some students in Finland (芬兰) are learning. When students learn about topics such as world events, they study several subjects together. For example, in a course about World War II, the students study history, geography and maths. Learning about topics, not just one subject, helps students see several points of view. In another course, called “Working in a café”, students study English, communication skills and economics (经济学). Finnish educators (教育者) believe students learn better when they work in groups. Working together helps students develop their ability to communicate. At this point, students in Finland don’t spend their whole school day working in groups. They still attend regular classes and study some subjects separately. But Finland is serious about making changes to the school day and to how students learn. Finnish schools are making this change, because they believe that working together to study topics is better and more challenging for students than working alone or studying only one subject at a time. In addition, they feel that students who choose to study topics that they care about and to work together with teachers and other students become better learners. They also feel that students who learn in this way are better prepared for jobs. 9. How does the writer start the text? A. By comparing facts. B. By listing numbers. C. By raising questions. D. By telling stories. 10. What subjects can students study in a course about World War II? ① English. ② History. ③ Maths. ④ Geography. A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③④ D. ①②③④ 11. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Most Finnish teachers like discussing with students. B. Some students prefer to work alone and not in groups. C. Schools should have separate classrooms and hallways. D. Recent changes in Finnish education are good for students. 12. What’s the best title for the text? A. Group Learning in Finland B. New Learning Methods in Finland C. The Most Popular Subjects in Schools D. The Important Life Skills for Students D ① On February 25th, some elderly care robots were shown to the public. These robots are great helpers for old people and bring lots of convenience and happiness to their lives. ② These robots are very useful in daily life. They can remind old people to take medicine at the right time. As for those who have trouble walking, the robots can walk beside them. They use sensors (传感器) to know if the old people are about to fall and stop them from falling. Some robots can even go outside with old people, like walking in the park or going to the nearby shops because they have navigation systems (导航系统). ③ Loneliness is a big problem for many old people. But these robots can be good friends. They can talk to old people. They can tell interesting stories, like stories from history. They can also talk about everyday things, such as the weather, local news, or the latest TV shows. This not only makes old people feel less lonely but also helps their minds stay active. The robots can also do small jobs. They can pick up light things that old people drop, like a book or glasses. For housework, they can do easy things, like cleaning the living room, tidying the bedroom or sweeping the floor. This helps old people keep their homes clean without getting too tired. ④ In the future, these robots will probably have even more uses. They may be like family doctors. For example, they can check heart rate (心率), blood pressure (血压), and body temperature all the time. If there is anything wrong, the robot can quickly tell family members or doctors. They might also be able to help with more difficult medical things, like helping to dress a wound (包扎伤口) with a doctor’s help. ⑤ As technology gets better, making these robots will cost less. Then more families can afford them. When more people can buy these robots, more money will be put into making them better. So, the robots will work even better and be of higher quality (质量). ⑥ As people gets older, more and more families need help taking care of the old. In the future, elderly care robots will play an important role in our lives. 13. Why are these robots especially helpful for the old people who live alone? A. They can repair broken furniture. B. They can help the old people find jobs. C. They can stay with them and help with daily tasks. D. They can teach the old people how to use smartphones. 14. Which of the following statements is NOT right? A. The cost of making these robots will be low. B. Old people’s quality of life may be improved. C. Fewer families will need these robots in the future. D. More functions (功能) may be added to these robots in the future. 15. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 16. What can we infer (推断) from the text? A. The navigation systems of the robots will only work indoors. B. These robots may become more affordable for ordinary families over time. C. Old people will no longer need to take medicine with the help of the robots. D. Elderly care robots may completely replace human caregivers (护理员) in the future. 第二节 阅读短文，从下面所给选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 Spoken English is an important part of English learning. ____17____ First of all, read widely.
