It opens one door after another for us to discover a new world. （六） （25-26八上·天津部分区·期中）根据短文内容及首字母提示、填写所缺单词，使短文意思完整。 True friendship is a really important and beautiful thing in our lives.

The final exams are just around the corner. Lately, I’ve been trying to b 1 sleep and studying. If I study a lot and sleep too little, my grades go down because I’m too tired to focus in class the next day. But if I sleep more and study less, my grades also suffer. What should I do? I look forward to your v 2 advice. Too Tired to Think of a Name Dear “Too Tired to Think of a Name”, Always focus on your lessons in class. After school, try to d 3 your study time into smaller sessions. Set clear goals for each session. Let’s say you start with your English homework. After that, take a break and enjoy some snacks. Then, dive into your math homework. Once you’re done, s 4 some time playing with your dog. Repeat this pattern u 5 you’ve finished all your homework. It will take a little longer overall, but you won’t feel so tired afterward. Study for 30 to 40 minutes every day for each subject. Never cram (挤满) the night before an exam. Cramming will only stress you out and l 6 you feeling tired and probably still unprepared. In short, remember that taking care of y 7 is just as important as studying. If you don’t look after your physical and mental health, you won’t be able to do your best. If you still have d 8 managing it all, talk to a parent, teacher or older schoolmate. They’ve probably been through similar c 9 and can give you useful advice. I hope you think my advice is w 10 taking.

The last three of the school’s 22 classrooms changed f 1 seated desks to standing desks. “It’s now the first all-standing school,”Juliet Starrett told TFK. She started the group called “Stand-Up Kids”. Starrett’s daughters—Georgia, 10 and Caroline, 7—a 2 this school. They are excited about their new desks. “You feel h 3 , you’re less tired, and you’re more active,” Georgia says. Some of the desks have wheels(轮子) and fidget bars(烦躁调节杆). The bars let kids m 4 in a way that doesn’t trouble the class. Wheels allow the desks to be moved e 5 . The desks can also be changed into different heights. Kids take breaks by s 6 on the floor or on stools. According to Mark Benden, director of the Texas A&M Center, standing workers are more focused and h 7 . He says his research shows that kids using standing desks are busier and burn more calories(卡路里). In December, researchers in New Zealand, Australia, and the UK shared similar findings and a 8 more schools to use standing desks. However, not everyone believes that standing is better than sitting. Some parents and teachers w 9 that kids may get tired and standing for a long time may be bad for their health. And standing desks are more expensive. Benden says b 10 sitting and standing desks can cause problems if they are not the proper height. “Our message should not be ‘Sit less, stand more’,” he says, “but ‘Sit less, move more’.” （四） （25-26八上·天津和平区·期中）Albert Einstein once said, “I have no special talent.

But have you ever wondered who i 1 the QR code? In the 1960s, supermarkets began to appear in Japan. Cashiers (收银员) had to enter the price of each product into the computer by h 2 . It was really hard work. Later, the bar code (条形码) came out and solved the problem. Users can do their work much more e 3 , but there was a new problem—it could just hold a little i 4 . So many developers started to i 5 the bar code. Masahiro Hara was one of them. He thought, “Bar codes can only hold information in one direction. But with 2D codes, we can put more information in two directions.” So he started to create a new 2D code. To make it be read as f 6 as possible, he made the code black and white, and square. In 1994, Hara’s QR code came out. It was soon used by a car company and later in the food industry (工业). It was so s 7 that Hara could use it to make a lot of money, but he didn’t. He made it public so that e 8 could use it for free. “The more people use it, the m 9 new ways of using it there will be. I think this is why the QR code was b 10 .” Hara said. He also hoped that it could be useful in more fields. 【答案】1. invented##nvented 2. hand##and 3. easily##asily 4. information##nformation 5. improve##mprove 6. fast##ast 7. successful##uccessful 8. everyone##everybody##veryone##verybody 9. more##ore 10. born##orn 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了二维码的发明背景与发展历程。 (1)题解析： 句意：但你有没有想过二维码是谁发明的？根据“who…the QR code”和首字母i可知，此处询问二维码是谁发明的，首字母为i，用“invent”（发明）；动作发生在过去，用过去式invented，故填invented。 (2)题解析： 句意：收银员必须手动将每件商品的价格输入电脑。根据“enter the price of each product into the computer by…”可知，价格输入电脑要用手，首字母为h，“by hand”是固定短语，意为“手动、用手”，故填hand。 (3)题解析： 句意：用户可以更轻松地工作，但出现了一个新问题——它只能存储少量信息。根据前文“Later, the bar code (条形码) came out and solved the problem”可知，问题被解决了，所以此处表示“更轻松地工作”，首字母为e，用easy的副词形式easily，故填easily。 (4)题解析： 句意：用户可以更轻松地工作，但出现了一个新问题——它只能存储少量信息。根据“Bar codes can only hold information in one direction”可知，此处指“存储信息”，首字母为i，用information，不可数名词，故填information。 (5)题解析： 句意：因此，许多开发者开始改进条形码。根据“Bar codes can only hold information in one direction.
