The new calendar had twelve months of thirty days.Each month had three weeks,and each week had ten days.The tenth day was the new day of rest,taking the place of Sunday.On paper,the design was beautiful:ten matches our fingers,and the weeks fit the months exactly. But people do not live on paper.Under the old seven-day week,workers rested one day in seven. Under the new one,they rested only ono day in ten-and they noticed at once.So people simply kept the old habit and rested when they had always rested. The goverment tried rules,then fines.Nothing worked:the design asked people to rest less and to forget habits that were hundreds of years old.After about twelve years,the ten-day week was quietly dropped,and the old week returned. Designers can learn a useful lesson.A calendar is not just a piece of mathematics.Nombers must fit the human life around them,or people will find a way back to the numbers that fit. 56.Why did France design a new calendar in 17937 57.How did the French divide a month in the new calendar? 58.What was the problem for workers under the ten-day week? 59.How did people fight against the new week? 60.According to the passage,what lesson can we learn from the story? 10 第Ⅱ兽（共30分） 七、话蓝填词（共5小题，每小愿1分，满分5分） In the 1940s,the first computers were(61)b than cars.Now computers are becoming smaller and better.Some of them are(62)t and you may not realize them.There is probably one inside your TV.You(63)d on computers more than you realize.Computers may be able to do a better job than human beings.For(64)i they may be better than doctors at doing their job.(65)H computers are not cleverer than us.Our brain can produce ideas but they cannot. 八、完成句子（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 66.在交通工具枝发明之前，大多数情况下，人类只能步行到达目的地。 Before the invention of transportation,for most of the time,humans could only go to their destination 67.在那个时候，从一个地方到另一个地方需要花费很长时间· At that time, usually a long time from one place to another. 68.过去，像牛和马这样的动物也在人类的出行中起到重要的作用。 Animals such as cows and horses in people's travelling around in the past,too. 69.现在裁然不同了，交通工具如自行车、汽车、火车和飞机代替了它们帮助人们出行。 Nowadays,it's completely different.Vehicles like bikes,cars,trains and planes help people get around them. 70.这些交通工具都是多么伟大的发明啊！ these inventions of tr ansport ar e! 11 九、书国表达（共1题，澜分15分） 假如你是李华，你的朋友Pter想买一个扫地机壁人，并询问你的意见，以下是你推荐的 机器人的情况介绍，请根据表格内容，给Peter写一封E-mail,先介组这西个机琶人的所有基 本情况，松后说出你更推荐恐一个并说明理由。 Nova S Aurora Pro Price ￥3000 ￥6000 Battery lfe about 21 days about 21 days Noie(嗓音) noisy low noise basic timert(计时器)only: Smart features mobile app control no remote control Sultable area(适用面积) <200m <300m' Your cholce and reasons 参考词汇（按酱使用）： 充一次电：on one charge 推荐：recommend Dear Peter, I'm glad to hear that you are planning to buy a robot vacuum cleaner and ask for my advice.
