If you look closely at the Moon on some nights, you can see the face of a man in the Moon. Some people say that they can see an old man carrying sticks. Others see a girl reading a book. These pictures are made by the mountains and plains of the Moon.Long ago people in England used to tell their children that the Moon was made of green cheese. Everyone knows that this is not true. The Moon is a large round rock. There is nothing on it. There are no trees or plants on the Moon. There are no rivers or seas. There are no living things. There is no air. It never rains on the Moon and everything is covered with dry, white dust. Not even a sound can be heard on the Moon.The Moon is very hot when the Sun shines on it. But in the shade (背阴处) it is as cold as ice. The Moon is much smaller than the Earth. It does not weigh as much as the Earth. If you went to the Moon, you would weigh six times less than you do now. Even a fat man would be able to jump high off the ground.26．On some nights the Moon looks like______ .A．an old man reading a book B．a starC．mountains and plains D．the face of a man27．The Moon is made of______ .A．rivers and seas B．rockC．dirt D．trees and plants28．You can’t hear an ything on the Moon because______ .A．there are no living things on the Moon B．it never rains on the MoonC．the Moon is a large round rock D．there is no air on the Moon29．The Moon is______ .A．very hotB．very coldC．sometimes very hot and sometimes very coldD．covered with ice30．On the Moon you could jump high in the air because______.A．you would feel very happyB．the Moon is very hotC．the Moon is as cold as iceD．you weigh six times less than on the EarthNow satellites are helping to forecast (预报) the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere (大气), because this is where the weather forms. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists (气象学家) can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead (提前).31．Satellites travel .A．in space B．above spaceC．above the ground D．in the atmosphere32．Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because .A．clouds form there B．the weather forms thereC．the weather satellites can do it easily D．people like to collect these pictures 33．Meteorologists forecast the weather .A．without studying satellite picturesB．before they receive satellite picturesC．when they have received satellite picturesD．after they have compared the new satellite pictures with the earlier ones34．Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for.A．one day B．two daysC．five days D．seven days or even longer35．The main idea of this passage is that satellites are used in .A．taking pictures of the Earth B．receiving pictures of the atmosphere C．weather forecasting D．doing other work in many waysLet’s suppose it is a common day of 2060. Of course, things have changed andlife is very different.Trips to the Moon are being made every day. Taking a holiday on the Moon today is as easy as taking a holiday in Europe in 2016. At a number of scenic spots (风景胜地) on the Moon, many hotels have been built. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of the young and old.What are people eating now? People are still eating food. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill comes mainly from green plants. Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just using a few computers.People are now largely vegetarians (素食者), and they eat only bread, vegetables, fruit and so on and they don’t eat meat or fish. You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases. So people have to be vegetarians. We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know how to deal with all kinds of illnesses. No one has to be ill any more.36．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．What our lives would be like in 2060. B．Trips to the Moon in 2060.C．What people would eat in the future. D．Developed farming in 2060. 37．What is true according to the passage?A．Many farms on the Moon have beautiful views.B．Entertainment is provided only on the Moon.C．It’s easy to take a holiday in Europe at present.D．It takes the whole day to travel to the Moon.38．The food we eat in 2060 .A．is green in the colour B．is mainly made out of green plants C．has a lot of pills in it D．is the same as today39．What does the underlined word “decrease” mean in Paragraph 5?A．To become larger. B．To become unknown.C．To become less. D．To become exact.40．We are healthier because of the following EXCEPT that .A．what we eat is green food B．we are largely vegetariansC．we can treat any illness D．we run the farm by using computers四、根据首字母填空A) 根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使句子意思完整正确。

Did I turn the coffee maker off? Did I lock the door? Are the kids doing their homework or watching television? With a smart home, you can quiet all of these worries. A smart home is a home with a communication network. This network connects devices(装置),such as lights and TV sets, and allows them to be controlled from far away through electrical wiring, mobile phone communication or WiFi over the internet. More and more people may start to consider owning a smart home, because it makes life much more convenient. It can help keep your room at a certain temperature. It can record what happens inside the home and send the video to your phone. When you are on vacation abroad, you can use a smart home controller to switch on or off the electricity when necessary. Some smart homes can receive a visitor, allowing him to come in and offering him a drink. They can even feed the cat and water the plants. Besides, smart homes are easy to fix. Most smart home technology and devices are wireless and can be set up with a minimum of tools, using only the guiding information. When a problem appears, you can deal with it yourself without paying a professional. However, for home-users, the smart home technology is far from perfect. It can be rather expensive to own the technology and the devices. Also, because the smart home system(系统)allow its owner to get home information from anywhere, it leaves the home easy to be attacked by hackers(黑客),who may secretly use or change the information in the system. Now, many scientists are excited at the future of smart home technology. Imagine being able to get fashion advice from your mirror, or receive food shopping suggestions from your refrigerator. While there are others who worry that those smart devices will make people lazier andlonelier. Whatever it is, one thing is for sure---smart home technology will change the way we live and work.（1）According to the passage, nowadays a smart home can lock the door through .A . electric lightsB . mirror technologiesC . mobile phonesD . shopping programs（2）The third paragraph of the passage is mainly about .A . the steps to use smart systemsB . the prices of smart programsC . the advantages of a smart homeD . the tools for setting up smart devices（3）Which of the following is TRUE about a smart home according to the passage?A . Smart homes can't help feed pets nowadays.B . Smart homes costs a lot of money at present.C . You can't control your smart home in other countries.D . It's hard for hackers to get information from smart homes.（4）What's the writer's attitude towards the smart home?A . worriedB . nervousC . hopefulD . excited18. （20分）One day I got in a taxi, and we left for the airport. We were driving in the right lane（车道）when, suddenly, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stopped his car at once. The tire（轮胎） made a very loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the other car.I was frightened. But then I couldn't believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head and started yelling at us. I couldn’t believe it! But my taxi driver just smiled at the guy. So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost sent us to hospital.”This is when my taxi driver taught m y what I now call, “The Law of the Rubbush Truck（垃圾车法则）.” He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around full of rubbish, full of anger and full of bad feelings. As their rubbish piles up, they look for a place to throw it away and sometimes they'll throw it at you. Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their rubbish and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.Successful people never let rubbish trucks change their moods. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love those who love you and pray（祈祷）for those who don't.（1）Which of the following is NOT true according to the first paragraph?A . The writer went to the airport by taxi that day.B . The taxi driver stopped his car in time.C . The black car jumped out and crashed into the taxi.D . A car accident nearly happened on the writer's way to the airport.（2）The underlined word yelling in the second paragraph means in Chinese.A . 道歉B . 傻笑C . 吼叫D . 告别（3）Why did the guy get angry so easily?A . Because he was in a bad mood.B . Because his car was full of rubbish.C . Because he was badly hurt by the taxi.D . Because the taxi driver didn’t say sorry t o him.（4）Which of the following is NOT true according to the first paragraph?A . The writer went to the airport by taxi that day.B . The taxi driver stopped his car in time.C . The black car jumped out and crashed into the taxi.D . A car accident nearly happened on the writer's way to the airport.（5）From the passage, we can tell that the taxi driver is _______.A . silly and dishonestB . wise and friendlyC . helpful but nervousD . modest but impatient（6）The underlined word yelling in the second paragraph means in Chinese.A . 道歉B . 傻笑C . 吼叫D . 告别（7）What does the passage mainly tell us?A . Fight with people like rubbish trucks.B . Make friends with people like rubbish trucks.C . Have a quarrel with people like rubbish trucks.D .

They are in Yancheng， Jiangsu Province. They are home for many diff erent kinds of birds and animals. The world’s largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve （自然保护区） is in them. More than 700 milu deer live freely there.

But none of them are worried about the road ahead.Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.These are now still in the testing stages. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.The cars have already got many features allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent these. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesn't believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also make mistakes.26．What can the testing self-driven carsalready do according to the passage?A．They can pick up their owners.B．They can turn around when getting near objects.C．They can avoid being hit by other vehicles on roads.D．They can control the speed indangerous situations.27．What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage?a. e-readingb. wireless signalsc. camerasd. GPSA．a, b, c B．a, b, dC．b, c, d D．a, c, d28．What does Whit Drake think of the safety of the self-driven cars?A．He doubts about it.B．He believes it completely.C．He thinks its technologies are believable.D．He doesn't care about it.29．What can you infer from this passage?A．There will be no drivers in the future.B．Self-driven cars may cause more accidents.C．We could see safe self-driven cars on roads soon.D．It's a long way for self-driven cars to go into use.30．What is the best title of the passage?A．Advantages of Self-driven CarsB．Possibilities of Self-driven CarsC．Different Ideas on Self-driven CarsD．Google's New Technology—Self-driven CarsBIs there intelligent(有智力的) life on other planets? For years, scientists said “No.” or “We don't know.” But today this is changing. Seth Shostak and Ale xandra Barnett are astronomers(天文学家). They believe intelligent life exists(存在) somewhere in the universe. They also think we will soon contact these beings.Why do Shostak and Barnett think intelligent life exists on other planets? The first reason is time. Scientists believe the universe is about 12 billion years old. “This is long enough for other planets to have intelligent life，”say Shostak and Barnett. The second reason is size—the universe is huge. “Tools like the Hubble Telescope(哈勃望远镜) have shown that there are at least 100 billion galaxies，”says Shostak. “And our galaxy, the Milky Way, has at least 100 billion stars. Some planets going around these stars might be similar to the Earth.”In the past, it was hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe. But now, powerful telescopes(高倍望远镜) allow scientists to discover smaller planets—the size of Mars or the Earth—in other solar systems. These planets might have intelligent life.Have beings from space already visited the Earth? “Probably not，” says Shostak. “It's a long way away. However, intelligent beings may contact us in other ways, such as radio signals(信号). In fact, they may be trying to communicate with us now, but we don't have the right tools toreceive their messages. However, this is changing. By 2025, we could make contact with other life__forms in our universe and we might help each other.”31．Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are________．A．astronomers B．farmersC．singers D．drivers32．What is the best title for Paragraph 2?A．The Age and Size of the EarthB．Our Galaxy—The Milky WayC．Why Intelligent Life Might ExistD．The Earth—The Only Planet with Intelligent Life33．Why was it hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe in the past?A．Because there were not any smaller planets.B．Because there were not any powerful telescopes.C．Because the astronomers were not interested in them.D．Because the Milky Way didn't exist at that time.34．Why haven't beings from space visited us yet according to Shostak?A．Because they're afraid of us.B．Because it's a long way away.C．Because they don't want to see us.D．Because they don't know how to use radio signals.35．What does the underlined phrase “life forms” in the last paragraph mean?A．Messages.B．Tools.C．Intelligent beings.D．Radio signals.Ⅳ.任务型阅读(10分)It is important for everyone to enjoy happiness. Most people want to be happy, but few people know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few ways to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future such as getting into college or getting a good job that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasure, such as reading a good book, listening to your favourite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends usually live happier and healthier lives.The second secret is to be active. Many people experience this by dancing or playing a sport. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies, people feel good when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for other people. If you want to feel happier, do something nice for someone.根据短文内容，完成表格。

If you look closely at the Moon on some nights, you can see the face of a man in the Moon. Some people say that they can see an old man carrying sticks. Others see a girl reading a book. These pictures are made by the mountains and plains of the Moon.Long ago people in England used to tell their children that the Moon was made of green cheese. Everyone knows that this is not true. The Moon is a large round rock. There is nothing on it. There are no trees or plants on the Moon. There are no rivers or seas. There are no living things. There is no air. It never rains on the Moon and everything is covered with dry, white dust. Not even a sound can be heard on the Moon.The Moon is very hot when the Sun shines on it. But in the shade (背阴处) it is as cold as ice.The Moon is much smaller than the Earth. It does not weigh as much as the Earth. If you went to the Moon, you would weigh six times less than you do now. Even a fat man would be able to jump high off the ground.（1）On some nights the Moon looks like______ .A.an old man reading a bookB.a starC.mountains and plainsD.the face of a man（2）The Moon is made of______ .A.rivers and seasB.rockC.dirtD.trees and plants（3）You can’t hear anything on the Moon because______ .A.there are no living things on the MoonB.it never rains on the MoonC.the Moon is a large round rockD.there is no air on the Moon（4）The Moon is______ .A.very hotB.very coldC.sometimes very hot and sometimes very coldD.covered with ice（5）On the Moon you could jump high in the air because______.A.you would feel very happyB.the Moon is very hotC.the Moon is as cold as iceD.you weigh six times less than on the EarthNow satellites（卫星） are helping to forecast（预报） the weather． They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world． The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）． They send these pictures to the weather stations． So meteorologists（气象学家） can see the weather of any part of the world． From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change．Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures． When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with the earlier ones． Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours． This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too． In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this．So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists． Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours．Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days．Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）．根据材料内容选择最佳答案（1）Satellites travel________．A. in spaceB. above spaceC. above the groundD. in the atmosphere．（2）Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere？Because________．A. clouds form thereB. the weather forms thereC. the weather satellites can do it easilyD. the pictures can forecast the weather．（3）Meteorologists forecast the weather________．A. without studying satellite picturesB. before they receive satellite picturesC. when they have received satellite picturesD. after they have compared the new satellite pictures with the earlier ones．（4）Maybe we'll soon be able to forecast the weather for________．A. one dayB. two daysC. five daysD. seven days or even longer．（5）The main idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in________．A. taking pictures of the earthB. receiving pictures of the atmosphereC. weather forecastingD. doing other work in many ways．Let’s suppose it is a common day of 2060. 0f course, things have changed and life is very different.Trips to the Moon are being made every day. Taking a holiday on the Moon today is as easy as taking a holiday in Europe in 2016. At a number of scenic spots (风景胜地) on the Moon, many hotels have been built. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of the young and old.What are people eating now? People are still eating food. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill comes mainly from green plants. Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just using a few computers.People are now largely vegetarians (素食者), and they eat only bread, vegetables, fruit and so on and they don’t eat meat or fish. You see, as th e number of people increases, the number of animals decreases. So people have to be vegetarians. We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know how to deal with all kinds of illnesses. No one has to be ill any more.（1）What does the passage mainly talk about?A.What our lives would be like in 2060.B.Trips to the Moon in 2060.C.What people would eat in the future.D.Developed farming in 2060.（2）What is true according to the passage?A.Many farms on the Moon have beautiful views.B.Entertainment is provided only on the Moon.C.It’s easy to take a holiday in Europe at present.D.It takes the whole day to travel to the Moon.（3）The food we eat in 2060 .A.is green in the colourB.is mainly made out of green plantsC.has a lot of pills in itD.is the same as today（4）What does the underlined word “decrease” mean in Paragraph 5?A.To become larger.B.To become unknown.C.To become less.D.To become exact.（5）We are healthier because of the following EXCEPT that .A.what we eat is green foodB.we are largely vegetariansC.we can treat any illnessD.we run the farm by using computers四、根据首字母填空A) 根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使句子意思完整正确。

We went to the Mars Hotel(five stars) for dinner before going to bed, I was very tired after the journey(It takes 72 hours to get there), but I am looking forward to my holiday very much.TuesdayI didn’t sleep well because of the weightlessness(失重), the gravity is only about three-eighths of that on Earth. I hit my head on the bedroom ceiling several times. After breakfast we spent the morning on the Mars City. They don’t use earth or chemicals to grow their food. We had lunch on the farm and then had a hover bus ride over the Mars City. That was very exciting. In the evening we went shopping in the Mars City Shopping Mall. I bought some souvenirs for my family and my friends. ( ) 1. This is John’s __________.A. diaryB. homeworkC. letterD. message( ) 2.

John had lunch _________.A. on the farmB. in the hotelC. in the Mars City Shopping MallsD. in the restaurant.BWe have always been interested in the moon. 2000 years ago people already knewit moved around the earth and where it would be in the sky at different times of the year. At that time, everything about the moon was learned by watching it carefully in the sky.When scientists could use telescoped(望远镜) to study the moon more closely, their ideas began to change. They could see the moon was made of rocks. Most scientists thought moon rocks would be different from those on Earth. This was because they believed the moon had once been a planet that had been caught in the earth’s gravity millions of years earlier.In 1969 moon rocks were finally brought to the earth and studied. Much to their surprise, scientists found that, except for water, the moon and the earth were made of the same things. Once again new ideas were needed for this new information.After years of study, most scientists now think that the moon was once part Earth.
