In recent years, technology companies have worked hard to speed up the use of driverless robotaxis and Baidu is one of the pioneers.②In June 2019, Baidu started to test its driverless taxis in certain areas in Changsha. In 2020, its Apollo Go robotaxis, also known as "Luobo Kuaipao" in Chinese, officially began its service in certain areas in Changsha, Cangzhou and Beijing. In March 2022, Beijing allowed Baidu to test fully driverless robotaxis on certain roads, which meant a further step forward. In June 2023, Baidu carried out its driverless taxi service in Shenzhen across an area of 188 km2 from 7 am to 10 pm daily.③Booking a ride on Apollo Go is as simple as a few taps on your phone screen. Passengers just need to tell the app Apollo Go or Baidu Map where they are and where to go. Then, a car will appear. With sensors (传感器) and cameras all over the car, a computer takes full control of the drive. A screen on the back seat shows customers the information of the ride and how the robotaxi "looks" at the space around to see other cars, humans, and anything else that might get in its way.④"The robotaxi goes at about the same speed, providing a good riding experience," a user posted online. By September 2023, the number of orders has reached four million. The user satisfaction rating for the Apollo Go app has reached 4.9 out of 5 and 97.12% of the reviews are five-star ratings. So far, Apollo Go robotaxi service has covered 11 cities and by 2025, it plans to test its robotaxis in other 65 cities.⑤However, safety is the key in the development of driverless robotaxis. In the future, Apollo Go and the other companies should take more time to improve the system in order to provide comfortable and safe rides. 4.What did Baidu work on according to the passage?A.Driverless taxis.B.Robotaxi sensors.C.Safety apps.D.Robotaxi Maps.5.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A.The risk of Apollo Go.B.The future of Apollo Go.C.The advantages of Apollo Go.D.The development of Apollo Go.6.How dose the writer show the popularity of Apollo Go in Paragraph 4?A.By telling a story.B.By doing experiments.C.By listing numbers.D.By giving examples.7.What can we learn about Apollo Go robotaxis from the passage?A.The robotaxi has caused a lot of traffic problems since it was put into use.B.People in Shenzhen could take a ride even at midnight in June 2023.C.Baidu will test Apollo Go robotaxi service all over the country by 2025.D.Passengers sitting on the back seats can know about their rides from a screen.阅读理解A particular picture especially touched me while reading news article about a tornado (龙卷风) just happened in a village around Florida. In the picture, a young woman with a worried face stood in front of an entirely destroyed mobile home. A small girl, three or four years old, stood at her side, clutching (攥紧) at her skirt and stared into the camera with a pair of eyes full of fear. At the end of the article, a telephone number was offered.This would be a good chance to teach my kid to help those in need. I showed the picture to my six-year-old daughter, Meghan, explaining what happened in the picture. "We have so much. But these poor people now have nothing," I said. "Let's share what we have with them."I brought a large box and placed it on the living room floor. Meghan watched seriously as I filled the boxes with old clothes that we don't want any more. Then she left and soon came back with Lucy, her much-loved doll. She stopped in front of the box for a moment, gave the doll a final kiss, then put it gently on top of the clothes."Oh, Honey," I said. "You don't have to give away Lucy. You love her so much." Meghan nodded seriously, with held-back tears." ▲ ." Megan said.I stared at Meghan for a long moment and didn't know what to say. I suddenly realized that it's easy to give away things that we don't want, but harder to let go off things we value, isn't it? True generosity (慷慨) is a three-year-old girl offering her favorite dol to a little girl she doesn't know because she hopes it will bring this child as much pleasure as it brought her. The true spirit of giving is to give with your heart.I, who had wanted to teach, had been taught.8.What is the right order of the following events?a. My daughter gave away her doll.b. A tornado happened around Florida.c. I saw a picture on the newspaper.d. I filled the box with old clothes.e. I learned a lesson from my daughter.A.bcade B.cbade C.cbdae D.bcdae9.Which of the following can be put into the blank ____▲____?A.Lucy is my favorite doll. I don't want to give it to that girl.B.Lucy makes me happy. It can make that girl happy, too.C.I used to like Lucy, but I don't like it now because it's old.D.I have to give Lucy to her, because I have nothing else to give her.10.How does the mother probably feel about her daughter in the end?A.Worried.B.Excited.C.Sorry.D.Proud.11.What's the best title for the passage?A.A Kind Girl B.A Special DollC.A Valuable Lesson D.A Thankful Mother阅读理解①Most people know about endangered plants and animals. However, not everyone knows that many languages are in danger, too. Recently, there are almost 500 languages that are officially endangered. According to a study, 95% of the world's population only speak 6% of the existing 7,000 languages. This means that only 6% speak all the other languages. Some languages have fewer than a dozen speakers. There are several reasons why languages die out.②A key reason is the influence of the dominant (主导的) languages. Generally, these languages are connected with social background and education. People who move to cities are forced to learn them. In most cases, the children do not learn their native language. In addition, many communities far away from towns and cities give up their languages in order to become an accepted part of the main culture. For example, India has lost 220 of 780 languages in the last 50 years. Once Hindi was regarded as the official language of India, the number of Hindi speakers increased from 260 million to over 420 million.③Another reason is that the people who speak an endangered language may be in physical danger, such as from war or mas killing. Many languages of the native people in the Americas are either lost or endangered for this very reason. Natural disasters and disease can also wipe out all populations. When the village of Papua New Guinea was hit by an earthquake, all the people in it died. The language they spoke, Malol, also disappeared with them.④Languages are part of cultures and show differences. Losing a language means losing a way to pass on culture. The whole world suffers because of the disappearance of cultural and language diversity (多样性). Therefore, efforts need to be made to protect endangered languages before they disappear forever.12.Why does the writer use numbers in Paragraph 1?A.To show that many languages are in great danger.B.To support that there are many languages in the world.C.To prove that languages have changed in different places.D.To introduce how many languages are spoken in the world.13.What does the underlined phrase "wipe out" probably mean?A.Kill.B.Change.C.Hurt.D.Beat.14.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?A.B.C.D.15.What's your advice on protecting endangered languages? (请用不超过30词回答)5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A一F六个选项中选择正确的选项(其中一项是多余选项)。

The study found that a person’s happiness depends on th e happiness of people he connects with. Surprisingly, it also found that happiness spreads not only between direct friends, but also among friends of your friends’ friends! And those good feelings seem to have the greatest influence among friends of the same sex (性别).“People with more good friends are less likely to develop depression (情绪低落) and worry,” says Dr. Toupey Luft. “Though you can’t choose your family or workmates, you do have control over friendships.” With a little effort, you can add more positive (正面的,积极的) relationships to your social circle. Here’re the suggestions:“Nobody is all positive or all negative,” says Luft. “But there are people you may feel more positive. Use that as your way to check people and keep records.” When spending time w ith others, pay attention to your feeling. Are you feeling tired and unhappy?To help you keep records, Luft suggests taking a moment when you get home to write down what your feeling is when around them.While it’s great to gather with positive friends, it’s also good to stay with others in the same life situations. “But if you’re all just complaining (抱怨) and nothing is changing, it’s not healthy,” says Luft. Are your friends negative, or are you doing most of the complaining? Considering the answers to these questions can help you decide if you want to stand in front of them. Or you could let the relationship disappear slowly.Sometimes your hobbies can lead to true friendships. Check out newspapers and websites to find a group or class for something you enjoy. These friends can always be there for you and can care each other through difficulties, illness and death.Not into groups? Look for individual (个人的) communication instead. Luft says, “Set small goals, such as having coffee with one new person, and develop friendship according to a plan. If someone suggests going for lunch sometime, set a date.”“If you’re feeling disappointed (失望) with a friend, try talking about what you both need,” says Luft. For example, tell her what you want during hard times in your lives.______________________________________. With some friends you laugh and have fun together at the movies—and that can be enough. With others, you pay attention to your deep connection.1.What does your happiness depend on, according to the passage?A.How people you connect with feel.B.How many friends you have.C.What situation you are in now.D.What kind of friends you have.2.What does the first suggestion want us to do?A.To measure our happiness.B.To check people around.C.To join a group for hobbies.D.To leave negative friends.3.Which of the following is true?A.We often have many friends during good times but few during hard times.B.It’s necessary to complain about something but not right to do so for long.C.Joining a group can bring better friendship than making individual friends.D.All the suggestions tell us to add positive relationship to our social circle.4.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means that ______.A.when your friend is sad, you should call her upB.when your friend leaves you, you need comfortC.friends’ needs may be quite different sometimesD.people may behave differently during hard timesB14、________________________This specially designed dress looks like a normal dress,but if you unfold it and cover yourself,you may look like a Coca Cola vending machine(自动售货机).

Which part of the magazine is the writing most probably from?A News Corner. B. Travelling SquareC Language World. D. Technology GardenBWe use elevators all the time, but try and imagine life without them. Tall buildings wouldn't be possible without the invention of the elevator. It's convenient and safe. but did you know that long ago people were afraid of using elevators?People had been using ropes to move things for thousands of years before the invention of the modern elevator. The ancient Romans moved heavy things attached (系) to ropes pulled by people or animals. Then in 1743, the French king had a “flying chair”. His men lifted the king up to the second floor by using ropes. Although elevators had been improving over time, people were afraid to use them. People liked the idea of an elevator, but they believed it might suddenly fall.In 1853, Elisha Otis invented the modem elevator. He made safety brakes( 刹车) to stop the elevator from falling. Otis had been thinking about peoples fear of elevators. He decided to do an elevator act at a show in 1854. Otis stood on his elevator and cut the rope that was holding it. The elevator fell, but the safety brakes suddenly stopped it. Otis amazed the audiences! Three years later, customers at a department store in New York could travel to the fifth floor by using an Otis elevator.The next step was to improve the elevator ride. People had been feeling nervous about using elevators because they were small and noisy. In the 1920s, elevators started playing relaxing music to cover up other sounds. Then there was a great idea to put mirrors in elevators. The mirrors made the elevator seem bigger and quicker. People could check their hair instead of fearing the elevator!These days, elevators aren’t scary. Elevators are getting faster, and office buildings, apartments and hotels aregetting higher. You can find Otis elevators in most cities around the world. Remember to enjoy your ride in the elevator when you’re going up to the thirty-fifth floor!19. What is the correct order in which these happened?①An Otis elevator was first put into use in New York.②People used to move heavy things by pulling ropes.③Otis elevators can be found in most parts of the world.④Flying chair was once used to lift a king to the second floor.A. ②④③①B. ②④①③C. ③①②④D. ①②④③20.

Modern elevators were invented by accident.D. Elevators are very popular all over the world.CAs the weather changes from day to day, sometimes it's impossible to avoid catching a cold or the flu. However, that doesn't mean we have to suffer terribly. Since the only way to get better from a cold is to go through the process, many natural remedies (疗法) have helped to reduce the symptom (症状) of the common cold.If you feel the cold, you should drink something warm. Add honey and lemon to hot water or tea. You will keep warm while you're drinking tea. In traditional Chinese medicine, ginger (姜) has been used for over two thousand years. A cup of ginger tea helps to increase the blood move and make you sweat through your body.Garlic (大蒜) is a super food. Garlic helps to fight off germs (细菌) when eaten daily. It can reduce the number of colds you get each year and shorten cold symptoms. If you don't mind eating uncooked garlic, it's best to eat a few pieces every three to four hours when you feel the first signs of a cold.It's no secret that salt gets rid of germs. For a sore throat, mix about half a teaspoon of salt into warm water and use as a mouthwash. Whether it's for breakfast, lunch or dinner, the Japanese enjoy umeboshi, sour and salty apricots(杏子) that help keep the doctor away. Using a neti pot is an old practice from India that helps people breathe better. As a mixture of salt and water pours into the nose, the germs are cleared away.Although cutting an onion can make you cry, it's good for a blocked nose. People in Mexico and Spain eat hot peppers to get their sense of smell back temporarily during a cold. Of course, you'd better be ready to experience a wave of heat! In Korea, kimchi is a popular side dish that keeps people healthy. It's made from pickle vegetables, red hot sauce and sometimes garlic and ginger.It is common to have a cold, and Mother Nature’s remedies will be there for you to lower your pain when you need to fight against that cold!23. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?24. The underlined word "It" in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.A. the garlicB. the germC. the coldD. the symptom25. The passage mainly wants to tell us that ________.A. people can catch a cold and the flu in many waysB. natural remedies are helpful when people catch coldsC. Mother Nature's food can take the place of medicineD. natural food helps people fight against all the illnesses26. According to the passage, we can learn that ________.A. a neti pot is always used to keep warmB. ginger is newly found to be good for healthC. kimchi is a main dish made from vegetablesD. umeboshi is salty and sour apricots Japanese likeDLiz Moore is a writer of novels.

Some parents are worried too---for example,Vanessa Holburn,thirty-two,who has two girls under the age of four.Their bedrooms are a sea of pink and Vanessa is not happy. " Pink says that you are soft and gentle.Blue says that you are strong and powerful.I want my daughters to be strong and powerful.I'm worried that pink will not help them with that," she says.But not everyone thinks there's something wrong with pink.Grayson Turner is a father of three girls and he isn't worried at all. "People forget that things change all the time," he says. "My girls used to love pink when they were little,but as they get older,they change." Turner explains that his twelve-year-old daughter never wears pink clothes anymore. "This love of pink is just a fashion and all fashions change," he adds. " It's only since the 1940s that people have started dressing girls in pink---before that it was a color for boys."8. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?______A. AB. BC. CD. D9. The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 3 means ______ .A. being soft and gentleB. being strong and powerfulC. being gentle but powerfulD. being cute and beautiful10. According to Grayson Turner,______ .A. parents needn't worry about pink toysB. all little kids love the color pinkC. pink has always been a color for girlsD. his girls now prefer the color blue11. The purpose of this passage is to ______ .A. explain why girls are crazy about the color pinkB. make parents less worried about the color pinkC. encourage girls to give up playing with pink toysD. show people's different opinions about the color pinkDThere is a glass on the table,filled up halfway with water.How would you describe the glass:half empty or half full If your answer was "half full",then prepare yourself for an exciting life in which anything is possible.If you said "half empty" on the other hand,you might just fail to do something or be worried about your life.It may sound crazy,but that's the power of positive(积极的)thinking! Experts believe that positive thinking has several important benefits(好处).First,it can make us feel happy about our life.If someone focuses on all of the good things that they have,he is much less likely to feel bad about his pare that to someone who's always talking about the bad side of any situation,the positive thinker will be the happier of the two.Positive thinking can also improve our health.One study showed that it takes shorter to recover(恢复)from diseases for people with positive thinking while it takes longer for those who are always in depressing feeling.Also,people who are highly stressed are easier to catch a cold and the flu. Another benefit is that positive thinking can influence the world around us.In the 2006 book The Secret,author Rhonda Byrne describes a "law of attraction".This law is according to the idea that positive thinking attracts positive things.If you think about a new sports car,you might just get one. Positive thinking may improve our minds,bodies,and even the world,but how do we get started?According to Richard Wiseman,an expert of psychology(心理学),the best way to change how we think is to change our behavior.He believes that if someone practices smiling every day,he or she will think happier thoughts.12. What does it mean if you describe a half glass of water "half full"?______A. You may fail to do something.B. Your life may sound crazy.C. You may have an exciting life.D. Your life may be impossible.13. What does the underlined word "depressing" in Para.3 probably mean?______A. Bright.B. Similar.C. Upset.D. Normal.14. What does Para.5 mainly talk about?______A. The idea of positive thinking.B. The way to start positive thinking.C. The benefits of positive thinking.D. The way to improve positive thinking.15. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?______A. People with stress are difficult to get ill.B. Positive thinkers are more likely to feel sad.C. There are two benefits of positive thinking.D. Positive thinking might bring you what you want.16.
