The people in the earthquake area are suffering from a lack of food and water. A. feeling happy B. feeling tired C. feeling pain D. feeling bored 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：地震灾区的人们正遭受缺乏食物和水的痛苦。 feeling happy感到开心；feeling tired感到疲惫；feeling pain感到痛苦；feeling bored感到无聊。根据“earthquake area”和“lack of food and water”可知，人们处于困境中，suffer意思是“受苦、遭受”，与feeling pain含义一致。 7. In this painting, the white dove represents peace. A. looks for B. stands for C. waits for D. cares for 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：在这幅画中，白鸽代表和平。 looks for寻找；stands for代表；waits for等待；cares for关心。根据句意可知represents意为“代表”，与stands for意思相近。故填stands for。 8. I don’t know exactly where he lives, but I know it’s near the park. A. clearly B. suddenly C. usually D. finally 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：我不确切知道他住在哪里，但我知道在公园附近。 clearly清楚地；suddenly突然地；usually通常地；finally最后。exactly意为“确切地”，clearly与其在此处表意相近。 9. When he saw the child in danger, he jumped into the river without hesitation. A. without help B. without success C. without a word D. without thinking twice 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：当他看到孩子处于危险中时，他毫不犹豫地跳进了河里。 without help没有帮助；without success未能成功；without a word一言不发；without thinking twice毫不犹豫地。根据“孩子处于危险中”可知救人刻不容缓，划线部分表示动作果断，选项without thinking twice符合这一逻辑。 10. His teaching style is similar to that of a friendly coach. A. is different from B. is like C. is good for D. is famous for 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：他的教学风格就像一位友善的教练的风格。 is different from与……不同；is like像……；is good for对……有好处；is famous for因……而出名。根据原句中“is similar to（与……相似）”的语义可知，此处表达教学风格和友善的教练风格相近，应填is like。 第三节 句子选择（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 阅读以下句子，结合语境，选出11～15各题空白处的最佳选项。 11. Leonardo da Vinci was unusually talented. _________, and his inventions changed the world. A. He was a true genius B. He was born in the countryside C. He painted the Mona Lisa D. He learned to play the piano 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：列奥纳多·达·芬奇拥有非同寻常的天赋。他是真正的天才，他的发明改变了世界。 He was a true genius他是真正的天才；He was born in the countryside他出生在乡村；He painted the Mona Lisa他画了《蒙娜丽莎》；He learned to play the piano他学会了弹钢琴。根据前句“Leonardo da Vinci was unusually talented”，以及后句“his inventions changed the world”的递进逻辑，此处需要填入对他天赋特质的总结性评价，“He was a true genius”完全承接前后文的语义，形成通顺连贯的表达。 12. Dinosaurs came in different sizes. _________, while others were as big as elephants. A. They lived on land B. Some of them could fly C. Many dinosaurs ate plants D. Some were as small as chickens 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：恐龙体型各不相同。一些恐龙和鸡一样小，而另一些和大象一样大。 They lived on land它们生活在陆地上；Some of them could fly它们中有一些会飞； Many dinosaurs ate plants许多恐龙吃植物； Some were as small as chickens一些恐龙和鸡一样小。根据前句“Dinosaurs came in different sizes.”可知，句子在描述恐龙体型大小。 13. The Huanglan was one of China’s first encyclopedias. _________. Later, the Yongle Dadian was completed in 1408. A. It had over 11,000 volumes B. It was created around 220 CE C. It included important writing D. It was written by Greek scholars 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：《皇览》是中国最早的百科全书之一。它创建于公元220年左右。后来，《永乐大典》于1408年完成。 It had over 11,000 volumes它拥有11,000多卷；It was created around 220 CE它大约创建于公元220年；It included important writing它包含重要的著作；It was written by Greek scholars它由希腊学者撰写。前文介绍《皇览》的身份，后文用“Later”引出另一部百科全书的时间，可知空缺处应补充《皇览》的创建时间以形成时间顺序对比。It had over 11,000 volumes描述的是后文《永乐大典》的卷数特征；It was written by Greek scholars与中国百科全书事实不符；It included important writing信息不明确。It was created around 220 CE提供了具体时间，符合上下文逻辑及事实。 14. The king promised the old man any prize if if the old man won. _________, “I’d like one grain of rice for the first square…” A. The old man thought for a moment and said slowly B. The king was very surprised and asked C. The old man was very good at playing chess D. The king’s favourite game was chess 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：国王承诺如果老人赢了就给他任何奖赏。老人想了一会儿慢慢说道，“我想要第一格放一粒米……”。 The old man thought for a moment and said slowly老人思考了片刻，缓缓说道；The king was very surprised and asked国王非常惊讶，问道；The old man was very good at playing chess那位老人非常擅长下棋；The king’s favourite game was chess国王最喜欢的游戏是国际象棋。根据上文“The king promised the old man any prize if he won”可知赢棋的是老人，所以提出要求的主体是老人，排除The king was very surprised and asked和The king’s favourite game was chess；下文引号内是老人说的话，选项The old man thought for a moment and said slowly中有“said”能引出话语，The old man was very good at playing chess仅陈述棋艺好坏无法引出对话。 15. Tally sticks were easy to understand, but writing large numbers took a long time. _________. A. These Indian numerals became popular B. The ancient Romans used letters from their alphabet C. To write “1,000”, you have to draw a thousand tally sticks D. People in the Arab world started using them too 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：计数棒很容易理解，但写大数字花费很长时间。要写“1,000”，你得画一千根计数棒！ These Indian numerals became popular这些印度数字开始流行起来；The ancient Romans used letters from their alphabet古罗马人使用他们字母表中的字母；To write “1,000”, you have to draw a thousand tally sticks要写“1,000”，就必须画一千根计数棒；People in the Arab world started using them too阿拉伯世界的人们也开始使用它们了。前文提到“写大数字花费很长时间”，空格处应进一步解释或举例说明为何耗时。选项To write “1,000”, you have to draw a thousand tally sticks!指出写1000需要画1000根棒子，具体说明了耗时的原因，逻辑连贯。其他均未针对“耗时”这一观点进行阐述。 第四节 语法选择（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，从16～25各题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。 DC Comics is a comic book publisher.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了DC漫画超级英雄Equinox的创作背景。创作者Jeff Lemire受加拿大女孩Shannen启发，旨在通过角色讲述她的故事。 【16题详解】 句意：Equinox是一位漫画超级英雄，是一名来自加拿大的16岁女孩。 空格修饰名词girl，需要复合形容词作前置定语，复合形容词带连字符，中间名词用单数，16-year-old符合语法。16-years-old、16 year old、16 years old形式均错误。 【17题详解】 句意：Equinox由Jeff Lemire创作，他是一位漫画艺术家和作家。 此处泛指一位艺术家，且comic以辅音音素开头，a符合语境。an用于元音音素开头单词；the用于特指；/均不符。 【18题详解】 句意：他也为DC漫画里其他的角色编写故事，包括《绿箭侠》和《超级小子》。 根据空格后接复数名词characters可知，other符合语法。others后面不能接名词；another后接单数名词；the others指代剩余全部人或物，后面不加名词，均不符。 【19题详解】 句意：当莱米尔得到一个创作新英雄的机会时，他提议故事背景设在加拿大。 固定搭配a chance to do sth.，意为“做某事的机会”，此处需用动词不定式作后置定语。to create符合语法。create、to creating、created形式均错误。 【20题详解】 句意：他选择安大略北部作为地点，因为他相信乡村背景会让故事更具加拿大特色。 后半句是前半句的原因，because引导原因状语从句，符合语境。but表转折；so表结果；though表让步，均不符。 【21题详解】 句意：他也认为在美国大城市以外的地方看到超级英雄会很有趣。 根据主语it指代事情，应用-ing结尾的形容词可知，interesting符合语法。interested修饰人，interest、interestingly词性不符。 【22题详解】 句意：他花费时间与当地人交谈。 全文在叙述过去发生的事情，时态为一般过去时，spend的过去式是spent，符合语境。spend、spends、will spend时态均错误。 【23题详解】 句意：他甚至组织比赛鼓励学生为这个新英雄想出一些超能力。 空格后面有名词powers，需要形容词修饰名词。some用于肯定句，后接可数名词复数，符合语境。any用于否定句/疑问句，anything、something为代词不能修饰名词。 【24题详解】 句意：在她的社区建一所合适的学校。 修饰名词community，需用形容词性物主代词，her符合语法。she、hers、she’s均不符合语境。 【25题详解】 句意：不幸的是，她在2010年的一场车祸中去世，年仅15岁。 固定短语at the age of表示“在……岁时”，符合语境，应用at。in、on、for均搭配错误。 二、完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从26～35各题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。 There was a hard-working student called Nancy.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了一个名叫南希的学生因学习过度劳累而失眠，医生建议她数数助眠，她却误解了建议的生动有趣的故事。 【26题详解】 句意：她在功课上花了大量时间。 根据前文“There was a hard-working student called Nancy.”及后文“She studied so hard that she became ill.”可知，南希学习刻苦，时间都投入在课业上，lessons意为“功课，课程”，符合语境。hobbies“爱好”、mistakes“错误”、games“游戏”，均和刻苦学习的语境不符。 【27题详解】 句意：所以当她第二天早上起床时，她感到非常疲惫。 根据“the next morning”及前文晚上失眠的内容，可知早上起床后会疲惫，got up意为“起床”，符合语境。gave up“放弃”、got down“落下”、looked up“查阅；抬头看”，均不符合早晨起床的生活场景。 【28题详解】 句意：她没法认真听老师讲课，甚至考试都考得很差。 根据前文睡眠不足、上课无法集中注意力，可知考试的表现会很糟糕，badly意为“差地，糟糕地”，符合语境。clearly“清楚地”、hardly“几乎不”、certainly“当然”，均不能体现考试的糟糕结果。 【29题详解】 句意：听完南希的描述，医生说：“你压力太大了。” 医生问诊需要先倾听病人的病情表述，hearing意为“听见，听完”，after hearing表示“听完……之后”，符合语境。watching“观看”、checking“检查”、seeing“看见”，均和医生先听病人诉说病情的流程不符。 【30题详解】 句意：你可以多吃健康的食物，比如水果和蔬菜。 根据“like fruit and vegetables”可知，水果和蔬菜都属于健康食品，healthy意为“健康的”，符合医生给出的健康建议。delicious“美味的”、funny“有趣的”、expensive“昂贵的”，均不能对应果蔬的健康属性，不符合医嘱的语境。 【31题详解】 句意：除此之外，你躺在床上的时候可以试着数数字。 根据后文“By the time you count to one thousand”可知，医生给出的助眠方法是数数字，count意为“数数”，符合语境。remember“记住”、train“训练”、write“书写”，均和后文数到一千的内容不对应。 【32题详解】 句意：等你数到一千的时候，你可能就睡着了。 医生给出数数字的方法，目的是帮助人入睡，asleep意为“睡着的”，be asleep表示“睡着”，符合助眠的预期效果。cheerful“高兴的”、unusual“不寻常的”、comfortable“舒适的”，均不能体现数数字助眠的作用。 【33题详解】 句意：医生说：“你今天感觉怎么样？” 医生复诊时会询问病人的身体感受，How are you feeling?是询问身体状况的常用句型，feeling意为“感觉”，符合问诊语境。making“制作”、thinking“思考”、living“生活”，均不符合医生询问病情的常用表达。 【34题详解】 句意：南希看起来还是很疲惫。 根据后文“The same as before”以及她依旧失眠的情况，可知她的状态没有好转，仍然疲惫，tired意为“疲惫的”，符合语境。afraid“害怕的”、quiet“安静的”、stupid“愚蠢的”，均不能体现睡眠不足的状态。 【35题详解】 句意：我不得不起床喝些咖啡，这样我就能继续数到一千了。 根据“some coffee”可知，咖啡是用来饮用的，drink意为“喝”，符合语境。change“改变”、buy“购买”、call“呼叫”，均不能和coffee构成合理的动宾搭配，不符合中途喝咖啡提神的场景。 三、阅读理解（共三节，满分37分） 第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从36～50各题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。 A In the world today, there are more than 8 billion people.

B 37. B 38. B 39. D 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，作者将全球80多亿人口假想成一个100人的小村庄，通过地理、性别、教育、科技、食物及安全等方面的具体统计数据，展示世界人口分布及生存现状，指出世界仍存在饥饿等问题，呼吁人们认清当下世界的真实面貌以推动世界变得更好。 【36题详解】 根据Food板块中“1 die from hunger...11 unhealthy from food shortage”可知，饥饿致死1人，食物短缺不健康11人，总人数100人减去这两部分即为食物充足人数，计算可得88人。 【37题详解】 通读全文表格内容，作者使用了“60 from Asia”、 “50 men”,、“86 can read and write”等大量具体数字来呈现各项数据情况，清晰展示了人口状况。 【38题详解】 根据Geography板块中“60 from Asia”可知，来自亚洲的人数为60人，超过总人数100人的一半。 【39题详解】 根据文章最后一句“In order to change the world for the better, we must understand what it is like today.”可知，作者希望人们了解当今世界的现状，从而让世界变得更美好。 【40题详解】 根据Food板块中“1 dies from hunger”及安全板块中居住问题等描述，可以推断出当今世界仍存在饥饿及缺少庇护场所等生存问题。 B The Mayan number system appeared in the fourth century, which was about 1,000 years earlier than the European number system. It is different from the Arabic number system with a base 10. The Mayan system had a base 20. This system is believed to have been used because the Mayans lived in such a warm area and there was hardly a need to wear shoes. 20 was the total number of fingers and toes, so the system was workable. Besides 20, the other important number is 5, which had a connection with the number of fingers and toes on one hand or foot. The Mayan system used two symbols: a dot (.) meant the units (one to four) and a dash (—) meant five. The Mayans were also the first to create symbols of zero. The most common symbol was a shell. It was the Mayan Indians who first came up with the symbol zero, although there were great experts in ancient Greece and Rome. From further study, people found that the 360-day calendar also came from the Mayans. They used base 18 when making the calendar. Each month had 20 days with 18 months in a year. This left five days at the end of the year, which was a month full of danger and bad luck. In this way, the Mayans invented the 365-day calendar. 41. What does the underlined “It” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. The European number system. B. The Mayan number system. C. The Arabic number system. D. The Mayan symbol system. 42. Why could the Mayan system be used at that time? A. People lived in such a warm area that they didn't need to count numbers. B. People believed that they hardly used their fingers or toes to count numbers. C. People thought the number of fingers and toes was enough to count numbers. D. People found that they could use the days in a year of a calendar to count numbers. 43. Which of the following symbols means sixteen?（圆点=1，横线=5） A. B. C. D. 44. What can we learn from the article? A. The Mayan number system had a base 10. B. All number systems had the same symbols. C. There were only 360 days in the Mayan calendar. D. The symbol of zero first appeared in the Mayan number system. 45. Where can you probably find the article? A. A diary. B. An encyclopedia. C. A travel guide. D. A geography magazine. 【答案】41. B 42. C 43. A 44. D 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了玛雅数字系统的出现时间、20进制的由来、使用的符号（含零的符号），同时说明了玛雅人发明的365天历法的相关规则与由来。 【41题详解】 根据文章第1段“The Mayan number system appeared in the fourth century, which was about 1,000 years earlier than the European number system. It is different from the Arabic number system with a base 10.”可知，代词it指代前文提到的玛雅数字系统。 【42题详解】 根据文章第1段“This system is believed to have been used because the Mayans lived in such a warm area and there was hardly a need to wear shoes. 20 was the total number of fingers and toes, so the system was workable.”可知，玛雅人手指和脚趾的总数为20，该数量足以支撑计数，因此玛雅数字系统在当时可以使用。 【43题详解】 根据文章第1段“The Mayan system used two symbols: a dot (.) meant the units (one to four) and a dash (—) meant five.”，结合题干给出的“圆点=1，横线=5”的规则，计算可得16=3×5+1，即表示16需要3条横线和1个圆点，对应选项A的符号。 【44题详解】 根据文章第1段“The Mayans were also the first to create symbols of zero. The most common symbol was a shell. It was the Mayan Indians who first came up with the symbol zero, although there were great experts in ancient Greece and Rome.”可知，零的符号最早由玛雅人创造，最早出现在玛雅数字系统中。 【45题详解】 本文是介绍玛雅数字系统与历法的科普类文章，这类普及各领域知识的内容通常收录在百科全书中。 C Five years ago, Jiang Songning lost his right forearm in an accident. The boy, only 17 then, thought the music of his life had stopped. But this year, Jiang could sit again before black and white keys. A thin, silver “hand” covered his right arm. It was a bionic (仿生的) hand. When Jiang’s mind said “move,” the fingers moved. The song was clear and sweet, and the listeners clapped with joy. Jiang said the bionic hand is almost as flexible as his left hand, with each finger able to move freely. Traditional prosthetics (假肢) can only do certain moves, but this bionic hand can do 80 percent of what a real hand can do. And it costs only one-fifth of similar foreign products. The disabled people can try it and improve their lives. There are many such stories. A man from Henan couldn’t walk for years. This year, he tried an exoskeleton (外骨骼). After thirty minutes of practice, he was able to walk slowly. “When I want to go forward, it gives me power. I feel I am walking by myself,” he said excitedly. This exoskeleton not only helps people with disabilities, but is also fit for situations such as long-distance walking and mountain climbing. It is now widely used in fields including emergency rescue, forest firefighting and so on. It can greatly help people carry more, walk longer and feel less tired. Besides the bionic hand and the exoskeleton, there are more and more AI products showing how technology can warm our daily life, especially the life of the disabled. 46. Why did Jiang think the music of his life had stopped? A. He was too poor to buy a piano. B. He became disabled five years ago. C. He was too old to play the piano. D. He lost interest in playing the piano. 47. What does the underlined word “flexible” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Hard to break. B. Quick to learn. C. Easy to move. D. Slow to change. 48. How is the bionic hand compared to traditional prosthetics? A. It is much heavier. B. It can only do easy moves. C. It costs more money. D. It can help do most things. 49. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A. The use of the exoskeleton. B. The future of the exoskeleton. C. The price of the exoskeleton. D. The challenge of the exoskeleton. 50. What can be the best title of the passage? A. AI products help do hard work B. The great development of China C. Cheaper Chinese smart products D. Smart technologies warm our life 【答案】46. B 47. C 48. D 49. A 50. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了仿生手和外骨骼等智能科技产品如何改善残疾人的生活。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Five years ago, Jiang Songning lost his right forearm in an accident. The boy, only 17 then, thought the music of his life had stopped.”可知，五年前，江松宁在一次事故中失去了右前臂，那时他只有17岁，他认为他生活的音乐已经停止了，由此可知，是因为他五年前残疾了。故选B。 【47题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“with each finger able to move freely”可知，每个手指都可以自由移动，由此可推测出，仿生手几乎和他的左手一样灵活，所以flexible是“灵活的，易移动的”意思。故选C。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Traditional prosthetics (假肢) can only do certain moves, but this bionic hand can do 80 percent of what a real hand can do.”可知，传统假肢只能做某些动作，但这个仿生手可以做一只真手能做的80%的事情，由此可知，仿生手能帮助做大多数事情。故选D。 【49题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“This exoskeleton not only helps people with disabilities, but is also fit for situations such as long-distance walking and mountain climbing. It is now widely used in fields including emergency rescue, forest firefighting and so on. It can greatly help people carry more, walk longer and feel less tired.”可知，这种外骨骼不仅能帮助残疾人，还适合长途步行和爬山等情况，它现在被广泛应用于包括紧急救援、森林消防等领域，它可以帮助人们携带更多东西，走得更远，感觉不那么累，由此可知，第五段主要讲的是外骨骼的用途。故选A。 【50题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“Besides the bionic hand and the exoskeleton, there are more and more AI products showing how technology can warm our daily life, especially the life of the disabled.”及全文可知，本文主要介绍了仿生手和外骨骼等智能科技产品如何改善残疾人的生活，以及这些技术在其他领域的应用，展现了科技如何温暖我们的日常生活，所以最佳标题是“智能技术温暖我们的生活”。故选D。 第二节 阅读填空（共4小题；每小题1分，满分4分） 阅读短文及文后A～D选项，选出可以填入1～4各题空白处的最佳选项。 What would be the best day to celebrate the number pi?

His calculation is between 3.1415926 and 3.1415927.”可知，此处介绍祖冲之关于圆周率的计算成果。选项A“在一千多年里，这是圆周率最精准的计算结果”承接上文，对祖冲之的计算成果进行补充说明。 【53题详解】 空后依次列举“Students in the US usually eat pie that day…show creativity through artworks about pi.”多个国家的庆祝活动。选项C“现在世界各地用许多不同的方式庆祝圆周率日”为本段主题句，总领下文多个国家的庆祝实例。 【54题详解】 根据后文“It also makes people enjoy maths through all kinds of celebrations.”中的also可知，本句与后文构成递进关系。选项B“圆周率日的庆祝活动开启了围绕圆周率的文化”，和后句一同说明圆周率日庆祝活动带来的价值，符合语境。 第三节 回答问题（共3小题；每小题1分，满分3分） When winter comes, the weather gets cold and food becomes hard to find. Many animals have a special way to live through the cold winter. This way is called hibernation (冬眠). It means going into a deep and long sleep to save energy in cold winter. Before hibernation, these animals eat much more food than usual. They need to store enough fat in their bodies. The fat can give them energy during their long sleep. They usually find quiet and safe places, such as under the ground, inside trees or in small holes. During hibernation, an animal’s body works very slowly. Its heartbeat slows down, and it breathes much less often. Its body temperature also becomes lower. These changes help it use very little energy, so it can stay alive without eating for months. Not all animals hibernate. Some animals like bears, frogs, snakes and hedgehogs usually hibernate in winter. Animals that can grow thick fur or find enough food still stay active in cold winter. Scientists study hibernation to learn more about animals’ body rules. They also hope to use the rules to help humans in many fields, such as medicine and space travel. 55. What does hibernation mean? ________________________________________________________ 56. Why do animals eat much more food than usual before hibernation? ________________________________________________________ 57. How does an animal’s body work during hibernation? ________________________________________________________ 【答案】55. It means going into a deep and long sleep to save energy in cold winter. 56. Because they need to store enough fat in their bodies and the fat can give them energy during their long sleep. 57. An animal’s body works very slowly. Its heartbeat slows down, and it breathes much less often. Its body temperature also becomes lower. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了动物冬眠的一些知识，讲解了冬眠的含义、冬眠前动物的准备、冬眠期间身体变化，哪些动物会冬眠以及科学家研究冬眠的意义。 【55题详解】 根据第一段中的“This way is called hibernation (冬眠). It means going into a deep and long sleep to save energy in cold winter.”可知，冬眠意味着在寒冷的冬天进入长时间的深度睡眠来节约能量。 【56题详解】 根据第二段中的“Before hibernation, these animals eat much more food than usual. They need to store enough fat in their bodies. The fat can give them energy during their long sleep.”可知，动物们在冬眠前会比平时吃更多的食物是因为它们需要在体内储存足够的脂肪，脂肪可以在漫长的睡眠期间为它们提供能量。 【57题详解】 根据第三段中的“During hibernation, an animal’s body works very slowly. Its heartbeat slows down, and it breathes much less often. Its body temperature also becomes lower.”可知，冬眠时动物身体运转很慢，心跳变慢、呼吸频率降低，体温也会下降。 四、写作（共四节，满分28分） 第一节 语篇填词（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） Numbers are e___58___ in our daily lives.

If this world were a small village with 100 people, what would it look like?

B The Mayan number system appeared in the fourth century, which was about 1,000 years earlier than the European number system. It is different from the Arabic number system with a base 10. The Mayan system had a base 20. This system is believed to have been used because the Mayans lived in such a warm area and there was hardly a need to wear shoes. 20 was the total number of fingers and toes, so the system was workable. Besides 20, the other important number is 5, which had a connection with the number of fingers and toes on one hand or foot. The Mayan system used two symbols: a dot (.) meant the units (one to four) and a dash (—) meant five. The Mayans were also the first to create symbols of zero. The most common symbol was a shell. It was the Mayan Indians who first came up with the symbol zero, although there were great experts in ancient Greece and Rome. From further study, people found that the 360-day calendar also came from the Mayans. They used base 18 when making the calendar. Each month had 20 days with 18 months in a year. This left five days at the end of the year, which was a month full of danger and bad luck. In this way, the Mayans invented the 365-day calendar. 41. What does the underlined “It” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. The European number system. B. The Mayan number system. C. The Arabic number system. D. The Mayan symbol system. 42. Why could the Mayan system be used at that time? A. People lived in such a warm area that they didn't need to count numbers. B. People believed that they hardly used their fingers or toes to count numbers. C. People thought the number of fingers and toes was enough to count numbers. D. People found that they could use the days in a year of a calendar to count numbers. 43. Which of the following symbols means sixteen?（圆点=1，横线=5） A. B. C. D. 44. What can we learn from the article? A. The Mayan number system had a base 10. B. All number systems had the same symbols. C. There were only 360 days in the Mayan calendar. D. The symbol of zero first appeared in the Mayan number system. 45. Where can you probably find the article? A. A diary. B. An encyclopedia. C. A travel guide. D. A geography magazine. C Five years ago, Jiang Songning lost his right forearm in an accident. The boy, only 17 then, thought the music of his life had stopped. But this year, Jiang could sit again before black and white keys. A thin, silver “hand” covered his right arm. It was a bionic (仿生的) hand. When Jiang’s mind said “move,” the fingers moved. The song was clear and sweet, and the listeners clapped with joy. Jiang said the bionic hand is almost as flexible as his left hand, with each finger able to move freely. Traditional prosthetics (假肢) can only do certain moves, but this bionic hand can do 80 percent of what a real hand can do. And it costs only one-fifth of similar foreign products. The disabled people can try it and improve their lives. There are many such stories. A man from Henan couldn’t walk for years. This year, he tried an exoskeleton (外骨骼). After thirty minutes of practice, he was able to walk slowly. “When I want to go forward, it gives me power. I feel I am walking by myself,” he said excitedly. This exoskeleton not only helps people with disabilities, but is also fit for situations such as long-distance walking and mountain climbing. It is now widely used in fields including emergency rescue, forest firefighting and so on. It can greatly help people carry more, walk longer and feel less tired. Besides the bionic hand and the exoskeleton, there are more and more AI products showing how technology can warm our daily life, especially the life of the disabled. 46. Why did Jiang think the music of his life had stopped? A. He was too poor to buy a piano. B. He became disabled five years ago. C. He was too old to play the piano. D. He lost interest in playing the piano. 47. What does the underlined word “flexible” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Hard to break. B. Quick to learn. C. Easy to move. D. Slow to change. 48. How is the bionic hand compared to traditional prosthetics? A. It is much heavier. B. It can only do easy moves. C. It costs more money. D. It can help do most things. 49. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A. The use of the exoskeleton. B. The future of the exoskeleton. C. The price of the exoskeleton. D. The challenge of the exoskeleton. 50. What can be the best title of the passage? A. AI products help do hard work B. The great development of China C. Cheaper Chinese smart products D. Smart technologies warm our life 第二节 阅读填空（共4小题；每小题1分，满分4分） 阅读短文及文后A～D选项，选出可以填入1～4各题空白处的最佳选项。 What would be the best day to celebrate the number pi?

Many animals have a special way to live through the cold winter. This way is called hibernation (冬眠). It means going into a deep and long sleep to save energy in cold winter. Before hibernation, these animals eat much more food than usual. They need to store enough fat in their bodies. The fat can give them energy during their long sleep. They usually find quiet and safe places, such as under the ground, inside trees or in small holes. During hibernation, an animal’s body works very slowly. Its heartbeat slows down, and it breathes much less often. Its body temperature also becomes lower. These changes help it use very little energy, so it can stay alive without eating for months. Not all animals hibernate. Some animals like bears, frogs, snakes and hedgehogs usually hibernate in winter. Animals that can grow thick fur or find enough food still stay active in cold winter. Scientists study hibernation to learn more about animals’ body rules. They also hope to use the rules to help humans in many fields, such as medicine and space travel. 55.
