Unit7名校单元主题阅读理解 2026-2027学年人教版英语八年级上册

人教版英语8年级上册Unit7名校单元主题阅读理解 （解析版） 阅读理解 In the future, technology will bring great changes to farming, and “smart farming” will become the main direction. Smart farming refers to using modern technology to help farmers grow food more easily and efficiently. It can solve many problems in traditional farming and improve agricultural production (农业生产) efficiency greatly. Sensors (传感器) are key tools in smart farming. These small tools can be put into the soil to monitor water and temperature exactly. Farmers can check these data on their mobile phones at any time, which helps them decide the best time to water the crops. This not only ensures the healthy growth of crops but also avoids water waste. Drones (无人机) will also play an important role in future farming. They can fly over farmland to take clear photos of crops. Farmers can judge whether the crops are healthy or sick with diseases by analyzing these photos. Some advanced drones can even spray fertilizer (肥料) and pesticides (杀虫剂) evenly, which saves a lot of time and labor compared with traditional manual work. In addition, smart farming will apply AI (Artificial Intelligence). AI can analyze a large amount of data, including weather conditions and soil quality, to tell farmers the optimal time for planting and harvesting. With AI’s help, farmers can get higher yields with less work, which is very important for meeting the food demand of the growing world population. 1．What can sensors do in smart farming?

Many people believe they will be very different from today’s schools. In the future, every student may have a smart desk (智能课桌) in the classroom. The desk is a big computer screen. Students can read e-books, watch videos and do exercises on it. If a student has a question, he or she can ask the desk. The desk will answer it at once. Robots may become our teachers’ helpers. They can carry books, clean the classroom and help students with their homework. But will robots take the place of (取代) teachers? Most people say no. “Teachers do more than teaching,” says Dr. Li, a teacher. “They give us love and care. Robots can never do that.” Students in the future will not need to carry heavy schoolbags. All the books will be e-books on the smart desk. They can also study at home and watch their lessons online. But they still need to go to school, because making friends and playing with classmates are important parts of school life. Schools in the future will be more interesting and helpful.

Our home, the earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. Well, what problems will we need to solve before we prepare to go to Mars? First of all, the spaceship should be much better. Now we need to spend months going to Mars by spaceship. However, by 2500, the spaceship can travel much faster. It will take us two or three days to get there! Secondly, people need food, water and air to live. Scientists are trying hard to grow special plants on Mars. These plants will produce the food, water and air that we need. It will also be dangerous for us to live on Mars because we could easily jump too high and fly into space. So we will have to wear special shoes to make ourselves heavier. In some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on earth today. Food will not be the same—meals will probably look like pills (药片) and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also, space travel will probably make many people feel very uncomfortable. 16．According to the passage, maybe we will live ________ by the year 2500. A．on Mars B．on the moon C．in the spaceship D．in the sea 17．How long does it take us from the earth to Mars by spaceship now? A．A few days. B．A few weeks. C．A few months. D．A few years. 18．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．We need special plants to produce air, water and food on Mars. B．We may go to Mars when the spaceship is much better and faster. C．We can jump higher on Mars than on earth. D．Food on Mars will be much better to eat. 19．What will life on Mars be like according to the passage? A．We can wear any shoes we like. B．We can drink easily and comfortably. C．We can jump higher on Mars than on earth. D．We can cook food to eat. 20．Why do many people believe that we will live on Mars? A．Because life on Mars is more interesting than that on earth. B．Because the earth is becoming dirty and crowded. C．Because there are many plants on Mars. D．Because the scientists want us to do that. 【答案】16．A 17．C 18．D 19．C 20．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了人们相信2500年人类可能移居火星的设想，探讨了地球现状促使这一想法的原因，以及移居火星在飞船速度、生存资源、重力影响和生活质量等方面需要解决的问题。 【详解】16．细节理解题。根据文章第1段“many people believe that we will live on Mars (火星) by the year 2500.”可推知人们相信2500年可能会住在火星上。 17．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“Now we need to spend months going to Mars by spaceship.”可推知现在需要花费几个月时间才能到达火星。 18．细节理解题。根据文章第5段“meals will probably look like pills (药片) and will not be as delicious as they are today.”可推知火星上的食物不会像今天一样美味，D项表述与原文不符。 19．细节理解题。根据文章第4段“we could easily jump too high and fly into space.”可推知在火星上引力较小，我们可以跳得比地球上更高。 20．细节理解题。根据文章第1段“Our home, the earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted.”可推知地球变得拥挤和污染是人们想要去火星生活的原因。 ① A long time ago, the looks of ancient people were very different from the looks of ours now. For example, if you find a really old house somewhere, you will see that the doors are usually much lower than they are today. Why? Because hundreds of years ago, people were shorter. Over time, the human body has changed a lot. ② Can we expect the human body to keep changing in the future? Of course. And the main reason is that we have more and more technology (科技), and it’s changing how we live. Here are some possible changes. ③ In the future, people will probably be even taller. Most of us now have much better food than people in the past, so we grow more. But our muscles (肌肉) will not be as strong as now, because we won’t do lots of physical work. ④ We are already using our feet less, and our hands more (think about cars and computers). So we can expect our legs will get shorter and that our feet will get smaller. At the same time, our fingers (手指) will get longer. And our fingers and eyes will both get better, because they will have to do more work together. ⑤ Will all these things happen? And if so, when? These are questions that no one can answer for sure. 21．What were the doors like hundreds of years ago? A．They were low. B．They were high. C．They were short. D．They were long. 22．What will our muscles be like in the future according to the passage? A．They will be weaker than now. B．They will get better. C．They will be as strong as now. D．We won’t have muscles on our bodies. 23．The underlined word “they” in the fourth paragraph refers to (指代) ________. A．legs and feet B．fingers C．eyes D．fingers and eyes 24．If we divide the passage into 3 parts, which of the following is the best? A．①/②③/④/⑤ B．①②/③④/⑤ C．①/②③④⑤ D．①/②③④/⑤ 25．What’s the best title for this passage? A．The Terrible Future B．Our Bodies are Changing C．Future Technology D．How to Live a Life 【答案】21．A 22．A 23．D 24．D 25．B 【导语】本文主要介绍人类的身体从古至今一直在发生变化，并预测了未来人体可能出现的一些改变，同时说明这些变化能否发生、何时发生尚无确定答案。 【详解】21．细节理解题。第一段提到：“you will see that the doors are usually much lower than they are today”，说明数百年前的门很低。 22．细节理解题。第三段提到：“But our muscles will not be as strong as now”，意思是未来我们的肌肉不会像现在这么强壮，也就是比现在更弱。 23．词句猜测题。第四段划线词所在句：“And our fingers and eyes will both get better, because they will have to do more work together.”，代词they指代前面并列的“fingers and eyes”。 24．篇章结构题。文章结构：①段介绍过去人体已经发生变化；②-④段提出未来人体会继续变化并列举可能的变化；⑤段总结这些猜想没有确定答案。即①/②③④/⑤。 25．最佳标题题。全文围绕人类身体的变化展开，“Our Bodies are Changing”最贴合文章主旨。 What will the house of the future be like? Could it have walls with flowers or a small garden for vegetables? Scientists say these are possible. And one thing is certain: future houses will be as smart as can be.   The fly house   There are propellers (螺旋桨) on the top of the house, and there are many different types of energy-saving modes to choose from. Wherever you want to go, the fly house can take you there quickly. When the temperature is high, it will form a cool cover immediately so that the house in the air won’t be too hot inside.   The garden wall house   This design focuses on the future of food. There will be houses with special walls. On the outer walls are the family’s small gardens. People can grow tomatoes, carrots and cabbage in them. So every day, you just need to step outside and pick your fresh meals.   The chameleon (变色龙) house   Like a chameleon, changing colour with the weather is the key design of a chameleon house. When it’s in bright sunlight, the cover of the house will turn white to keep it from strong heat. During winter, it turns dark and takes in as much light and heat as possible to create energy.   The grass house   Many scientists around the world want to build a “grass house”. Like grass, the house produces energy during the day. This energy can be used to heat water, collect sunlight and even make the indoor air fresher. The “roots” of the house go deep into the ground. It uses the soil to keep the indoor temperature stable. 26．How does the writer start the passage? A．By using an old saying. B．By telling a story. C．By asking questions. D．By giving examples. 27．If you want to travel to a place quickly, what kind of house will you choose? A．The fly house. B．The garden wall house. C．The grass house. D．The chameleon house. 28．What will happen to the cover of the chameleon house in bright sunlight? A．It will take in light. B．It will turn white. C．It will turn dark. D．It will take in heat. 29．The underlined word “it” refers to ________. A．the hand B．the sun C．the light D．the house 30．What is the passage mainly about? A．Healthy life in the future. B．Smart houses in the future. C．New energy in the future. D．Famous scientists in the future. 【答案】26．C 27．A 28．B 29．D 30．B 【导语】本文介绍了未来四种智能房屋（飞行屋、花园墙屋、变色龙屋、草屋）的特点和功能，探讨了未来房屋智能化的可能性。 【详解】26．写作手法题。第一段开头提出“What will the house of the future be like? Could it have walls with flowers or a small garden for vegetables?”，作者通过提问引入话题，选项C正确。 27．细节理解题。“The fly house”部分提到“Wherever you want to go, the fly house can take you there quickly.”，可知想快速去某地应选择飞行屋，选项A正确。 28．细节理解题。“The chameleon house”部分提到“When it’s in bright sunlight, the cover of the house will turn white to keep it from strong heat.”，可知在明亮阳光下，房子外壳会变白，选项B正确。 29．词句猜测题。“The grass house”部分提到“Like grass, the house produces energy during the day. This energy can be used to heat water...”，其中“it”指代前文的“the house”，选项D正确。 30．主旨大意题。全文介绍了四种未来智能房屋的设计，选项B“Smart houses in the future.”正确。A“未来的健康生活”、C“未来的新能源”、D“未来的著名科学家”均不符合文章主旨。 Today, we often see delivery workers bring packages to people. Do you believe that self-driving vehicles can deliver packages without drivers? They will bring your parcels to you in the near future. That sounds interesting, doesn’t it?   Now some tech companies are working together to use self-driving vehicles for package delivery. These companies use them to send group orders.

For sure, and the main reason is that we have more and more technology, and it’s changing how we live. What kind of changes can we expect? Well, no one can be 100 percent sure, but here are some possible changes. In the future, people will probably be even taller. Most of us now have much better food than people in the past, so we grow more. But we will get weaker in more than one way. Our muscles (肌肉) will not be as strong as now, because we won’t do lots of physical work. We are already using our feet less, and our hands more (think about cars and computers). So we can expect that our legs will get shorter and our feet smaller. At the same time, our fingers (手指) will get longer. And our fingers and eyes will both get better, because they will have to do more work together. What about the mouth? It will get smaller, because we needn’t talk so much with the help of technology. And last but not least—people won’t have much hair on their bodies as now, because we don’t need it to keep ourselves warm anymore. Will all these things happen? And if so, when? These are questions that no one can answer for sure. 41．Why is the writer sure that the human body will keep changing? A．Because a long time ago, people were very different. B．Because technology is changing how we live. C．Because cultural changes make people act differently. D．Because we have much better food. 42．What will our muscles be like in the future according to the passage? A．They will be weaker than now. B．They will get better. C．They will be as strong as now. D．They will disappear. 43．What does the underlined word “they” refer to? A．Legs and feet. B．Fingers. C．Hands. D．Fingers and eyes. 44．What can we know from the passage? A．Human’s legs will get longer and the feet smaller. B．People will get stronger in more than one way. C．People’s appearance will be different from that of today’s people. D．People will be even shorter. 45．What’s the best title for this passage? A．Terrible Future B．Changing Bodies C．Future Technology D．How to Live a Life 【答案】41．B 42．A 43．D 44．C 45．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了随着科技发展和生活方式的改变，未来人类身体可能发生的多种变化，包括身高、肌肉、四肢、器官及毛发等方面，并指出这些变化尚未有定论。 【详解】41．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“For sure, and the main reason is that we have more and more technology, and it’s changing how we live.”可知，作者确信人体会继续变化的主要原因是科技正在改变我们的生活方式。 42．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Our muscles (肌肉) will not be as strong as now, because we won’t do lots of physical work.”可知，未来人类的肌肉将不如现在强壮，即会变得更弱。 43．词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“And our fingers and eyes will both get better, because they will have to do more work together.”可推知，划线单词“they”指代的是前文提到的“fingers and eyes”，因为它们需要一起完成更多工作。 44．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“In the future, people will probably be even taller.”及第三段“our legs will get shorter and our feet smaller... fingers will get longer”等多处对身体特征变化的描述可推知，未来人类的外貌将与现在的人类不同。 45．最佳标题题。文章开篇提出未来人体会变化的观点，随后分段详细列举了身高、肌肉、四肢、五官及毛发等具体的身体变化可能性，全文围绕未来人类身体的变化展开，因此“Changing Bodies”最适合作为标题。 You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is not likely to change and stays young-looking. In 2035, medical science is better than ever. Many people of your age could live to be 150, so at 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging nanotechnology treatment (抗衰老纳米技术治疗). Now, all three of you look the same age! You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” include particles (粒子), which are very small in size and can be used to change your clothes’ colour or pattern (样式). You walk into the kitchen. You get the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge has read the RFID chip (芯片), a piece of electronic equipment, on the milk bottle, and it knows the milk is old. In 2035, every food item in the supermarket has an RFID chip. It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go.

Smart farming refers to using modern technology to help farmers grow food more easily and efficiently. It can solve many problems in traditional farming and improve agricultural production (农业生产) efficiency greatly. Sensors (传感器) are key tools in smart farming. These small tools can be put into the soil to monitor water and temperature exactly. Farmers can check these data on their mobile phones at any time, which helps them decide the best time to water the crops. This not only ensures the healthy growth of crops but also avoids water waste. Drones (无人机) will also play an important role in future farming. They can fly over farmland to take clear photos of crops. Farmers can judge whether the crops are healthy or sick with diseases by analyzing these photos. Some advanced drones can even spray fertilizer (肥料) and pesticides (杀虫剂) evenly, which saves a lot of time and labor compared with traditional manual work. In addition, smart farming will apply AI (Artificial Intelligence). AI can analyze a large amount of data, including weather conditions and soil quality, to tell farmers the optimal time for planting and harvesting. With AI’s help, farmers can get higher yields with less work, which is very important for meeting the food demand of the growing world population. 1．What can sensors do in smart farming? A．Take clear photos of crops. B．Check soil water and temperature exactly. C．Spray fertilizer and pesticides evenly. D．Analyze weather and soil data. 2．How can drones help farmers? A．They can help farmers water crops. B．They can put sensors into the soil. C．They can help farmers judge if crops are sick. D．They can analyze soil quality. 3．What does the underlined word “optimal” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Early. B．Long. C．Late. D．Best. 4．We can infer from the passage that smart farming will ________. A．waste a lot of water and energy. B．help solve the food problem of the growing population. C．make farmers do more work than before. D．replace all manual work in farming completely. 5．What is the main idea of this passage? A．How to grow crops easily in traditional farming. B．The development of AI technology in cities. C．Different technologies used in future smart farming. D．Why drones are popular in modern life. （二） Technologies Making School Life “SMART” E-booksIn the future, students may only bring e-books to school. In fact, some schools are already doing this. E-books can store notes and students feel relaxed with lighter schoolbags. E-skatesWith a pair of e-skates, you can walk to school faster! E-skates can be tied to your shoes easily. And there are four speed settings you can choose from. Robot teachersThere are robot teachers in the schools in some cities. These robots can help students with their studies. They can also help them solve problems. Flying aidsIf students get hurt and need help at schools, drones (无人机) can be of great use. They can offer help faster than people and they can also carry medicine or clothes. 6．How many technologies are mentioned in the passage? A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four. 7．How do students feel with lighter schoolbags? A．Worried. B．Relaxed. C．Bored. D．Surprised. 8．Who can help students with their studies according to the passage? A．The robot teachers. B．The parents. C．The workers. D．The friends. 9．Which is the best choice if you want to walk to school faster? A．The flying aid. B．The e-book. C．The e-skate. D．The schoolbag. 10．Where does the passage probably come from? A．A travel magazine. B．A movie magazine. C．A technology magazine. D．A music magazine. （三） Schools in the Future What will schools be like in the future? Many people believe they will be very different from today’s schools. In the future, every student may have a smart desk (智能课桌) in the classroom. The desk is a big computer screen. Students can read e-books, watch videos and do exercises on it. If a student has a question, he or she can ask the desk. The desk will answer it at once. Robots may become our teachers’ helpers. They can carry books, clean the classroom and help students with their homework. But will robots take the place of (取代) teachers? Most people say no. “Teachers do more than teaching,” says Dr. Li, a teacher. “They give us love and care. Robots can never do that.” Students in the future will not need to carry heavy schoolbags. All the books will be e-books on the smart desk. They can also study at home and watch their lessons online. But they still need to go to school, because making friends and playing with classmates are important parts of school life. Schools in the future will be more interesting and helpful. What do you think? 11．What is a smart desk in the future? A．A small table with wheels. B．A big computer screen for students. C．A desk made of glass. D．A robot that can carry books. 12．What can robots do in the future schools? A．Take the place of teachers. B．Give students love and care. C．Help students with their homework. D．Teach new lessons. 13．Why do students still need to go to school in the future? A．Because they can’t study at home. B．Because they need to make friends and play with classmates. C．Because the smart desk is only at school. D．Because their parents are busy. 14．What does Dr. Li think of teachers? A．Robots will take their place. B．Teachers give love and care that robots can’t give. C．Teachers are not important in the future. D．Teachers will become robots. 15．What is the right structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph 2 ③=Paragraph 3 ④=Paragraph 4 ⑤=Paragraph 5) A．① / ②③④ / ⑤ B．① / ②③④⑤ C．①② / ③④ / ⑤ D．①②③ / ④⑤ （四） Now, it may be difficult to know about the future, but many people believe that we will live on Mars (火星) by the year 2500. Our home, the earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. Well, what problems will we need to solve before we prepare to go to Mars? First of all, the spaceship should be much better. Now we need to spend months going to Mars by spaceship. However, by 2500, the spaceship can travel much faster. It will take us two or three days to get there! Secondly, people need food, water and air to live. Scientists are trying hard to grow special plants on Mars. These plants will produce the food, water and air that we need. It will also be dangerous for us to live on Mars because we could easily jump too high and fly into space. So we will have to wear special shoes to make ourselves heavier. In some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on earth today. Food will not be the same—meals will probably look like pills (药片) and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also, space travel will probably make many people feel very uncomfortable. 16．According to the passage, maybe we will live ________ by the year 2500. A．on Mars B．on the moon C．in the spaceship D．in the sea 17．How long does it take us from the earth to Mars by spaceship now? A．A few days. B．A few weeks. C．A few months. D．A few years. 18．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．We need special plants to produce air, water and food on Mars. B．We may go to Mars when the spaceship is much better and faster. C．We can jump higher on Mars than on earth. D．Food on Mars will be much better to eat. 19．What will life on Mars be like according to the passage? A．We can wear any shoes we like. B．We can drink easily and comfortably. C．We can jump higher on Mars than on earth. D．We can cook food to eat. 20．Why do many people believe that we will live on Mars? A．Because life on Mars is more interesting than that on earth. B．Because the earth is becoming dirty and crowded. C．Because there are many plants on Mars. D．Because the scientists want us to do that. （五） ① A long time ago, the looks of ancient people were very different from the looks of ours now. For example, if you find a really old house somewhere, you will see that the doors are usually much lower than they are today. Why? Because hundreds of years ago, people were shorter. Over time, the human body has changed a lot. ② Can we expect the human body to keep changing in the future? Of course. And the main reason is that we have more and more technology (科技), and it’s changing how we live. Here are some possible changes. ③ In the future, people will probably be even taller. Most of us now have much better food than people in the past, so we grow more. But our muscles (肌肉) will not be as strong as now, because we won’t do lots of physical work. ④ We are already using our feet less, and our hands more (think about cars and computers). So we can expect our legs will get shorter and that our feet will get smaller. At the same time, our fingers (手指) will get longer. And our fingers and eyes will both get better, because they will have to do more work together. ⑤ Will all these things happen? And if so, when? These are questions that no one can answer for sure. 21．What were the doors like hundreds of years ago? A．They were low. B．They were high. C．They were short. D．They were long. 22．What will our muscles be like in the future according to the passage? A．They will be weaker than now. B．They will get better. C．They will be as strong as now. D．We won’t have muscles on our bodies. 23．The underlined word “they” in the fourth paragraph refers to (指代) ________. A．legs and feet B．fingers C．eyes D．fingers and eyes 24．If we divide the passage into 3 parts, which of the following is the best? A．①/②③/④/⑤ B．①②/③④/⑤ C．①/②③④⑤ D．①/②③④/⑤ 25．What’s the best title for this passage? A．The Terrible Future B．Our Bodies are Changing C．Future Technology D．How to Live a Life （六） What will the house of the future be like? Could it have walls with flowers or a small garden for vegetables? Scientists say these are possible. And one thing is certain: future houses will be as smart as can be.   The fly house   There are propellers (螺旋桨) on the top of the house, and there are many different types of energy-saving modes to choose from. Wherever you want to go, the fly house can take you there quickly. When the temperature is high, it will form a cool cover immediately so that the house in the air won’t be too hot inside.   The garden wall house   This design focuses on the future of food. There will be houses with special walls. On the outer walls are the family’s small gardens. People can grow tomatoes, carrots and cabbage in them. So every day, you just need to step outside and pick your fresh meals.   The chameleon (变色龙) house   Like a chameleon, changing colour with the weather is the key design of a chameleon house. When it’s in bright sunlight, the cover of the house will turn white to keep it from strong heat. During winter, it turns dark and takes in as much light and heat as possible to create energy.   The grass house   Many scientists around the world want to build a “grass house”. Like grass, the house produces energy during the day. This energy can be used to heat water, collect sunlight and even make the indoor air fresher. The “roots” of the house go deep into the ground. It uses the soil to keep the indoor temperature stable. 26．How does the writer start the passage? A．By using an old saying. B．By telling a story. C．By asking questions. D．By giving examples. 27．If you want to travel to a place quickly, what kind of house will you choose? A．The fly house. B．The garden wall house. C．The grass house. D．The chameleon house. 28．What will happen to the cover of the chameleon house in bright sunlight? A．It will take in light. B．It will turn white. C．It will turn dark. D．It will take in heat. 29．The underlined word “it” refers to ________. A．the hand B．the sun C．the light D．the house 30．What is the passage mainly about? A．Healthy life in the future. B．Smart houses in the future. C．New energy in the future. D．Famous scientists in the future. （七） Today, we often see delivery workers bring packages to people. Do you believe that self-driving vehicles can deliver packages without drivers? They will bring your parcels to you in the near future. That sounds interesting, doesn’t it?   Now some tech companies are working together to use self-driving vehicles for package delivery. These companies use them to send group orders. For example, when a company orders office supplies for its employees, a self-driving vehicle will bring all their orders to the company quickly and safely.   Online package ordering is becoming popular across China, even in small towns. So far, about 250 million users use different apps to order packages online. Some researchers say that using self-driving vehicles will be a revolution in package delivery. They will make a big difference in the future.   At the same time, some people think there must be problems. For example, self-driving vehicles can drive well on flat roads, but what if the road is bumpy (崎岖的)? Some others worry that most delivery workers will lose their jobs in the future.   What do you think of using self-driving vehicles to deliver packages? 31．Why do some tech companies work together?

D．A science magazine. （九） A long time ago, people were very different from the way we are now. Can we expect the human body to keep changing in the future? For sure, and the main reason is that we have more and more technology, and it’s changing how we live. What kind of changes can we expect? Well, no one can be 100 percent sure, but here are some possible changes. In the future, people will probably be even taller. Most of us now have much better food than people in the past, so we grow more. But we will get weaker in more than one way. Our muscles (肌肉) will not be as strong as now, because we won’t do lots of physical work. We are already using our feet less, and our hands more (think about cars and computers). So we can expect that our legs will get shorter and our feet smaller. At the same time, our fingers (手指) will get longer. And our fingers and eyes will both get better, because they will have to do more work together. What about the mouth? It will get smaller, because we needn’t talk so much with the help of technology. And last but not least—people won’t have much hair on their bodies as now, because we don’t need it to keep ourselves warm anymore. Will all these things happen? And if so, when? These are questions that no one can answer for sure. 41．Why is the writer sure that the human body will keep changing? A．Because a long time ago, people were very different. B．Because technology is changing how we live. C．Because cultural changes make people act differently. D．Because we have much better food. 42．What will our muscles be like in the future according to the passage? A．They will be weaker than now. B．They will get better. C．They will be as strong as now. D．They will disappear. 43．What does the underlined word “they” refer to? A．Legs and feet. B．Fingers. C．Hands. D．Fingers and eyes. 44．What can we know from the passage?

D．People will be even shorter. 45．What’s the best title for this passage? A．Terrible Future B．Changing Bodies C．Future Technology D．How to Live a Life （十） You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is not likely to change and stays young-looking. In 2035, medical science is better than ever. Many people of your age could live to be 150, so at 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging nanotechnology treatment (抗衰老纳米技术治疗). Now, all three of you look the same age! You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” include particles (粒子), which are very small in size and can be used to change your clothes’ colour or pattern (样式). You walk into the kitchen. You get the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge has read the RFID chip (芯片), a piece of electronic equipment, on the milk bottle, and it knows the milk is old. In 2035, every food item in the supermarket has an RFID chip. It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeves (袖子) . Nano-sized “smart technology (智能科技) ” is all around you. “Your whole body and everything around you will become part of the same network,” says scientist Ampy Buchholz. So will all these come true? “For new technology to succeed,” says scientist Andrew Zolli, “it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The internet is one example— what will be the next? 46．According to the passage, what will happen in 2035?
